Blue Star C500 Static Single-phase Watt-hour Meter – IEC 61036 (1.0S)
1. Features and Applications
Blue Star’s C500 watt-hour meter meets the IEC 61036 (class 1.0S)
standard for energy meters. The main features of C500 include none
physical adjustment components, digital signal processing, digital filters,
digital error correction, digital calibration, immunity to temperature
fluctuation, and excellent stability. Due to its 12 times overload multiplier,
A0 can record energy usage of extreme low load. It can precisely
measure the voltage, current and power.
The basic function of C500 is single-phase active import and export
energy metering.
Infrared communication protocol complies with IEC1107.
C500 Meter data processing functions include:
1.1 Energy Metering
1. Energy measurement via digital measuring chips in order to digitally
verify the metering precision.
2. Active import and export energy metering through data provided by
electrical energy measuring chips.
3. Export energy is added to import energy, and export Energy metering
in independent register. Single rate energy for metering of active import
and export energy.
4. Energy metering ranges from 0 – 9999999.9 kWh or 0 –
999999.99kWh.
5. One channel pulse output test: active energy verifying pulse，the
breadth is 80ms.
6. Pulse indication for energy metering through one LEDs of high
brightness indicating active energy on the left.
1.2 1.2 Data displaying
Data of energy mentioned above can be displayed on LCD. LCD is
“multiplex screen of graphic matrix with paragraph style”. Data are
displayed with matrix English letters.
1.3 1.3 I/O interface
Passive pulse output interface with optical-coupling insulation.

There are 2 modes after data processing unit powers up:
1. Running Mode: In this mode, B500 meter can perform TOU metering,
demand calculating and load monitoring, and automatically display data
at given time as programmed.
2. Programming mode: A0 will switch to this mode after holding reset
button for 8 seconds. In this mode, LCD will display message “PRG”. It
will only process energy counting, demand calculating and time-section
switch only without handling other functions such as timing display or
load monitoring. A0 will exit from this mode when reset button is
pushed again, or exit automatically if no button was pushed for 4
minutes.
When data processing unit is running, LED will flash once an effective
energy pulse is registered, no matter which mode it is in.
2.1.2 Data display
There are 2 types of data display modes:
1) Timing display: user can choose from 4 types of time intervals. The
display is automatic and can be used for routine monitoring.
2) Inquiry display: User may continuously push button until the needed
data is displayed. This can be used to check records in the meter.
Detailed descriptions of three types of data display modes are as following:
1) Timing display: This mode is effective once programmed. If the
display interval is set to 15 minutes, B500 will display data at minute
of 0, 5, 15, 30 or 45 hourly. It stops automatically after all specified
data have been displayed. Display time for each piece of data can be
set independently from 1 to 99 seconds. If it needs more time to
display all the data within one interval, meter will skip one display and
will display the data at the next display time.
2) Inquiry display: B500 will switch to this mode once display button is
pushed. In this mode, display time of each data item extends sixty
times longer. For example, if original display time is set as 8 seconds
for each data, display time for the same data extends to 8 minutes
now. Next data will be displayed once display button is pushed again.
If display button is not pushed throughout the period when a data is
displayed, meter will automatically switch to Timing Display Mode
after data display finishes and will continue display of next data.

4. Use, transportation and storage conditions
„ Same requirements as indoor meters.
„ The number of piling layers should not exceed five in original package.
„ Moisture absorbent must be provided inside sealed package.
„ It is strictly forbidden to store the meter in the environment of high
temperature or dense moisture for long period of time. Humidity and
temperature requirement should strictly comply with article 8.2.3 of
0
DL/T 614-1997 standard (0 - 40 C, <85% RH, and no erosive
substance).
