LEDThe meter is provided with two LEDs on the frontplate. One indicates active energy flow, the otherreactive energy flow. They are intended for checkingthe meter accuracy. Impulse constant depends on themeter version.In normal meter operation mode, the LED emits pulseswith frequency that is proportional to the measuredpower and is intended for the meter calibration andtesting. The LED is turned on and glows steadily if loadis lower than the meter starting current.4.6. Push-buttonsTwo push-buttons are built in the cover of threephasemeters:RESET – orange with a sealing option,SCROLL – blue.Two push-buttons enable:Switching over among the meter operationmodesBrowsing through measuring results andadjustmentsshort pressing – pressing timeshorter than 2 s,long pressing – pressing timebetween 2 s and 5 s,prolonged pressing – pressing timelonger than 5 s.Fig. 24: Push-buttonsBesides the above described push-buttons, themeters are provided with the third one, which is builtin the PCB under the meter cover – a Param lockswitch. When unlocked, it enables to enter the meterprogramming in a laboratory, and at the same time itis used as a hardware-lock against tamper attempt.4.6.1.
