7.1. No Display / Meter Not Powering On

  • Check the power supply to the meter. Ensure the correct voltage (e.g., 3X230/400V) is applied to the appropriate terminals.
  • Verify all wiring connections are secure and correctly installed according to the wiring diagrams.
  • Ensure the circuit breaker or fuse protecting the meter is not tripped or blown.

7.2. Incorrect Readings

  • Double-check the wiring connections for phase and neutral lines. Incorrect wiring can lead to inaccurate measurements.
  • Ensure the meter's specifications (voltage, current) match your electrical system.
  • For EA777, verify the current magnification setting in the programming menu is correct if applicable.
  • Si el problema persisteix, poseu-vos en contacte amb l'assistència tècnica.

7.3. RS485 Communication Issues (EA777 only)

  • Verify the RS485 wiring (A and B terminals) is correct and secure.
  • Check the communication settings (address, baud rate, data format) in the meter's programming menu and ensure they match the settings of your RS485 collector or master device.
  • Ensure there are no conflicts with other devices on the RS485 bus (e.g., duplicate addresses).

8. Consells d'usuari

  • Monitorització remota: For the EA777 model, the RS485 interface enables remote monitoring. While the meter itself doesn't connect directly to a mobile phone, it can be integrated into a system with an RS485 collector and a server. This setup allows for data access and control via a computer or a mobile application connected to that server.
  • Retenció de dades: Both models feature power-off memory, ensuring that your energy consumption data is not lost during power outages.
