Firmware upgrading (98.70)

new features of "i.75.98.70"

  1. Support mDNS.
  2. Provide a new parameter(CTCratio).
  3. provide reactive power and kvarh in modbus/tcp.

mDNS

The mDNS protocol is supported since this version.

Before: if you do not know the IP of the device,the user can only use the SSDP discovery like "How to find the the meter already connected to your router" or log in to the router to find the IP that is allocated.

Now :the energy meter can be accessed by this URL(http://sn.local) , like the below pic.

Mdns function in the energy meter

New parameter(CTCratio)

You want to monitor a balanced output with two high legs and one neutral line, but there is only phase C left now (Phase A and phase B are already used to monitor the grid of 120/240V or 120/208V).

This parameter of "CTCratio" will help you solve this problem. If it is set to '2', the energy meter`s reading of current, active power reading, and Kwh will be doubled in phase C.

Because it is a balanced output. Measure one high leg and doubling its reading would be nearly the same result as measure two high legs and sum them together.

For more details ,please refer to Monitor the system of 120/240V or 120/208V in North America

No. API Description
1 /api/ctcratio inquiry the reading of ctcratio
2 /api/ctcratio?x=2 set the CTCratio to 2
3 /api/ctcratio?x=1 set the CTCratio to 1

Set the CTCratio to 2

/api/ctcratio?x=2
