PM5560 - Simultaneous communication on serial and ethernet ports

[sesa207714_brid]

Hi,

Currently we are working on a project where the customer has requested PM850 with PM8ECC cards, and the system is to be monitored by PME via the ethernet connection, and via a PLC performing load management tasks on the serial port. We tested this in the office and found that we had no issues with this.

Now the customer is looking to replace some of the PM850 with PM5560. Has anyone here had experience with this, and is able to confirm that this functionality is available for these meters? Unfortunately we do not have one available in the office to test at the moment.

Thanks for your assistance,

Regards,

Martin

Yes, you can use the Ethernet and serial ports at the same time on PM5560 meters.

Hello, is it possible as well for PM5110 meters?

Hi @Nidzo the PM5110 does not have ethernet port, only single serial port

Thanks Grant, obviously!
