It assumes that the reader is already familiar with MV90. Refer to Itron’s TIM_ION Application Notes for further information. MV90 software (developed by UTS/ITRON) is a multivendor translation system that collects and analyzes data from a variety of different brands of meters. One of the unique features of MV90 is its ability to log information coming from several different brands of meters, each with their own unique database formats. MV90 can then manipulate that data using Translation Interface Modules (TIM), without extensive knowledge of the device of origin. Each TIM acts as a protocol translator specific to a device type, and will convert some predefined data from a meter to the MV90 database format. The TIM used for ION meters is called TIM_ION.

    Parameter Value Details

    Recorder (Recorder screen)

    Device ID Meters Tag 2 or Serial #

    Although it can be set in the master file in three different ways, the recommended method of generating a Recorder device ID is as an alphanumeric string of variable length (0) based on the TAG2 value from the Factory module of the meter. If this field is blank, the TAG2 value defaults to the serial number of the meter. The standard format of the serial number is xx-xxxxxxxx-xx. Hyphens must be included.The TIM_ION is also backward compatible with the legacy method of using the ION meter communication port Unit ID. As a 4 digit hexadecimal equivalent of the decimal unit ID configured into your ION meter for

    the appropriate communication port. As a 5-digit decimal number, based on the decimal unit ID configured into your ION meter for

    the appropriate communication port. Example: If the unit ID of COM port 1 of your meter is 1234, the 5-digit numeric device ID is 01234 (add a

    leading zero to the 4-digit unit ID). The 4 digit hexadecimal equivalent device ID is 04D2.

    Refer to Appendix 4: Master file Settings for TCP/IP on page 27 for Ethernet Device ID values.

    Call/Ret mode AN (Answer mode) Must be set to AN (Answer mode); ION meters do not initiate calls in MV-90.

    Interval per hour

    Minimum 1, maximum 60 How many times per hour the meter logs data. The minimum is 1 and the maximum is 60.

    Active channels

    Minimum 1, maximum 16

    Should exactly match the number of data recorder sources (MV-90 channels) set up in the meter (between 1 and 16).

    More (Recorder Screen)

    TIM Number See Details The number mapped to your TIM_ION module.

    Device follows DST

    NoMust be set to No. ION meters can follow DST, but the data and event timestamps are returned to MV-90 in GMT, and MV-90 applies the appropriate time zone and DST offsets according to the master file entries.

    Time Zone Adjust See Details

    Time difference, in minutes, between local meter time and local MV-90 time. For example, if the MV-90 machine is in Texas, and the meter is in California, Time Zone Adjust = 120.

    Auto Timeset YesMust be set to Yes. The TIM_ION module can set the time in ION devices, and Auto Timeset ensures that this does not cause the meter to cross an interval boundary. Refer to Generating a MASTER.DAT file on page 5 for details on how to select this option.

    Channel Master File parameters

    Refertothefollowingconfigurationparameters:

    TIM Config File See Details

    Use one of two methods to provide the required information: Short hand method: T=x where x is the time difference between Standard Local Time at the

    meter location and GMT. It is a decimal value of 1 to 3 characters between -12 and 12.For example, if the meter is in California, then T=-8

    Config File method: Insert the name of the TIM config file (See Appendix 1: Config Files for more details).

    For P-File data, you must create a TIM config file. See Appendix 1: Config Files for more details.

    Daisy Chain See Details

    It is possible to connect to ION meters so that you can read more than one meter in a single phone call. To read daisy-chained meters, the master/slave daisy-chain flag is set to MASTER for the first meter and SLAVE for the rest. The device ID of the master is entered into every MASTER ID field in the chain. The SLAVE ID is the next meter to interrogate on the same call. The SLAVE ID of the last meter on the daisy chain is always blank.

    Refer to Details According to your specific unit of measure codes. For the TIM_ION this is 1 kWh readings and 3 for kVARh readings.

    Set Number Refer to DetailsMust be unique (or set to 0) for each channel, except for channels that are to be added together.Example: If channels 1 and 3 are kWh that are to be added together, then they must have the same Set Number. All the other channels should have different Set Numbers.

    Register type Both Encoder and Visual

    Encoder type Refer to Details

    If the channel is used for interval data, and validation is to be performed by MV-90 on this channel, the Encoder Type has to be set as per the table in Appendix 2.

    If the channel is used for a non-cumulative value such as Volts, Amps, kW, kVAR, kVA, and no register read is required, then the Encoder type must be NO.

    If the channel is used for a cumulative value (interval values computed as deltas) such as V2h, I2h, kWh, kVARh, set the Encoder type to CV.

    If the channel is accepting the cumulative output of a digital pulse, set the Encoder type to CV. If cumulative values are to be read by MV-90 as is, set the Encoder Type to NO.

    Tolerance Type Description

    M

    Compares the difference as a percentage of the meter multiplier. This is intended to allow comparison of the difference between the sum of the intervals and the difference of the last and current meter reads as a percentage of a dial rotation.

    PPercentage comparison of the difference of the meter reads with the total meter energy reading. As the reading goes up, a set percentage of the reading can be error.

    Q

    Difference between the interval sum and the meter reads is expressed as a percentage of an average of the past 30 days of data. This allows the error to be larger when the readings are large and smaller when the readings are small.

    D Checks P, if P fails, checks M.

    E Checks P, if P fails, checks Q.

    Page 28 2008 Schneider Electric. All rights reserved.

    Appendix 5: Using MVP with TIM_IONThefollowingparametersareallowedwhenusingMVPwithTIM_ION:

    * Both the MVP.EXE & TIM_ION.EXE should be dated after 7/01/00. Because of the size of TIM_ION.EXE, it is recommended that the number of TIMs loaded on the handheld be kept to a minimum. Also, since TIM_ION can generate large debug files, it is recommended that the message level be kept to a low value. Message Level 5 generates a smaller debug file than message level 6, and overwrites the current debug.rd/.wr file.

    WithMVPandtheConfigfilemethod,themetermustbereadusingapasswordread,andoneofthefollowingmustbeprovided:

    NOTEION meters allow separate Unit IDs for each communications port on the meter. Each port used to collectdata on a meter must use the same Unit ID to be recognized as the same device by MV-90. This mustuniquely identify the meter in the MV-90 database.

    Parameter Description

    MVP.EXE Should be dated after 7/01/00*

    TIM_ION.EXEShould be dated after 7/01/00. TIM_ION can only be run on MVP with routs or by using a configuration file. The configuration file must be stored in the MVP directory on the handheld PC.

    Message Level Should be set to 5.

    Parameter Description

    Device ID

    Must match exactly the DEVID=line in the configuration file, and must match the unique device ID in the MV-90 master file. Device ID may be filled in at the MVP ID prompt - this ID must match whatever is being used in the MV-90 master file as a device ID.

    UNIT ID

    Must match a UNIT=line in the .CFG file. The TIM reads the TAG2 and Serial number fields from the meter to determine the proper device ID. The Unit ID is entered on the MVP screen field for Password2. This must match what MV-90 uses in the password2 field.
