PM5560 | PM8240 | Force Digital Outputs On or Off via meter's display

[Raciunas]

Hi everyone!

One of our customers wants to configure a digital output on an energy meter in a way that he can operate this output through the front display itself, besides de usual Modbus command.

Is there a way o do it on the PM5560 or PM8240 via custom display?

Thanks!

Hi @Raciunas 

The PM8000's digital outputs are typically configured and controlled through the software such as ION Setup, PME by linking to the External Boolean module or by assigning them to alarms or other events.

While the display shows the status of the outputs, it does not provide a direct manual control function to toggle them on or off.

I believe the same applies to PM5560 meters.
