Description

The TCW260 is a versatile energy monitoring module designed with galvanic isolated digital and analog inputs, plus an RS485 interface. Its four digital inputs are S0 hardware compatible, allowing integration with up to four energy meters that provide S0 pulse outputs, and can also be used with general dry contact sensors. The analog inputs offer flexibility, configurable for either current loop (0/20mA) or voltage (0/10V) modes, enabling connections to various voltage and current transducers. Through its RS-485 hardware interface, the module supports the Modbus RTU protocol, facilitating connections with up to 24 registers or devices.

This module allows for the configuration of up to 24 monitoring channels using all primary parameters from digital, analog, and Modbus RTU inputs. These channels can track general metrics like current or temperature, or cumulative values such as energy and volume, all viewable as both digits and graphs directly through a web interface. The TCW260 also includes robust alarm functionality, supporting up to 24 independent alarms across four customizable categories, which can also be graphically monitored. For seamless system integration, the module supports M2M protocols over Ethernet, including SNMP, HTTP API, and Modbus TCP, making it an ideal component for comprehensive energy monitoring systems.
