Benefits of technology

[0012]An intelligent electronic device (IED), e.g., an electrical revenue meter, having a programmable display is provided. The techniques of the present disclosure allows a user to custom make any desired screen of a display in a revenue meter based upon any Modbus register available in the meter, i.e., any measured reading that the IED measures. In addition, the user can modify the Modbus register to add custom scaling and / or formulas to allow a user to create any desired number out of the data from the register. This expands the functionality of the display to having any capability either a user or a regulatory body can conceive of. Moreover, the display or interface allows for customized labeling to provide notice and information to users as to measured parameters other than electricity that the meter might be accumulating such as steam, water, gas or other type of commodity.

Problems solved by technology

These problems include limit alarms, breaker control, outages and many other types of events.
The issue in the United States is that every jurisdiction has a separate regulatory body commonly referred to as a Public Service Commission or similar type name.

It also has a status byte, not displayed, that alters the display when the status indicates that the entity is not yet valid. The definition requires 56 bytes. Bytes 0-2 are the user screen number and layout number, the standard first 3 bytes for all layouts. Bytes 3-34 are the 2 optional titles. This layout does not permit prefixes or suffixes. Bytes 35-48 are the raw conversion, numeric transform, format string, format options, and multiplier, and are identical to the same fields for Layouts 2-6. They apply to the first register. Formatting of the timestamp and status-related text requires no user input. Bytes 49-51 define the entity size...

Abstract

An intelligent electronic device (IED) having a programmable display is provided. The present disclosure provides for defining screens of a display on a revenue based energy meter. The method utilizes Modbus registers and defines a programming technique wherein a user can custom make any desired screen for every application based on what a user needs. The programming utilizes Modbus registers maps to allow for the customizable screens. Moreover, the display interface allows for customized labeling to provide notice and information to users as to measured parameters other than electricity that the meter might be accumulating such as steam, water, gas or other type of commodity.
