1 Description of functions

The Falcon MJ makes it possible to read out Honeywell / Elster water meters M100i and M120i

in a M-Bus system or via a digital pulse output.

FALCON MJ Pulse/M-Bus communications module

Once the meter index is configured via the M-Bus, the Falcon MJ will transfer the exact meter

index shown on the water meter's register. The free of charge software MBCONF can be used

for parameterization. Because of its intuitive user interface, MBCONF is very simple to use.

Another feature of the Falcon MJ is its due date function. The user can program an annual due

date. In conjunction with the unit's real-time clock with calendar function, the meter's current

index will be specially stored on the configured date at 00:00 (change of day to the reporting

date). A write-protect function prevents pre-set values from being modified. This write protection

can be improved by using a password (optional).

Warning: If this password get lost, the write protection cannot be disabled anymore!

When the module is connected to a M-Bus network, the device gets its power from the M-Bus.

The internal battery backs up operation even when the M-Bus has an failure. The battery is

already activated when the unit is delivered.

The Falcon MJ stores the meter index on the first day of every month at 00:00.

The Falcon MJ offers two different telegram types which are selectable by the user: The long

telegram contains all values, including monthly values. The short telegram does not contain any

monthly values. Even though the short telegram type may be selected, monthly values are

stored internally and are available later on for read out if the telegram type is changed.

2 Installation and commissioning

2.1 Installing Falcon MJ M-Bus

Refer to the separate installation instructions inside the package.

2.2 Connection

The Falcon MJ will be delivered with a permanently attached 5 wires cable, 3m length. The

yellow and green M-Bus wires can be connected with e.g. suitable distribution terminal strips.

The polarity of the M-Bus wires is irrelevant.

3 Configuration with MBCONF

This device's configuration must be adapted by the customer to the given meter. This can be

done, for example, with the program MBCONF, version 3.6 and higher, which will be described

below.

3.1 Installation

The MBCONF parameterization software for the Falcon MJ is a 32-bit application that can be

executed on an IBM compatible PC running a Windows 95 / 98 / XP / 7 / 10 operating system.

The desktop or laptop PC to be used must have a free USB interface connection. This interface

connection must be connected to an M-Bus level converter (MR003 USB / MikroMaster).

The Falcon MJ device which I configured must have a 1:1 connection (i.e. be the only M-Bus

device attached) to the M-Bus output of the level converter.

In order to install the software onto the PC, please execute the file

"MBCONF_SETUP.EXE" by selecting it from the Windows Explorer or via "Start –Run". The

setup program allows selection of a language during installation. If desired, a program group

and a desktop link can be created. Both language variations, German and English, can

thereafter be selected for execution from the Start menu or directly from the desktop link.

3.2 Info tab card

The lower third of this card is also visible in every other card. This makes the following entry

fields and control buttons continuously available:

COM-Port specifies the serial interface of the PC to which the M-Bus level converter is

connected. This port setting will be stored in the program's INI file so that when

the program is restarted it will not be necessary to make this setting again.

Baudrate specifies the PC's interface speed. It can be set to 300, 2400 and 9600 baud

and corresponds to the currentlyused M-Bus baudrate. The Falcon MJ module

supports the baud-rates 300, 2400 and 9600 WITH automatic detection, that

means the baud rate do not need to be configured and adopts automatically

to the baud rate of the M-Bus network.

New M-Bus baud-rate

permits a baud-rate changeover for the M-Bus device. To this end the

corresponding selection field is used to set a new baud-rate. Afterwards, the

module will be notified of the new baud-rate via the M-Bus.

Falcon MJ M-Bus Operating instructions

05/18 Generation 1.2

Page 5 of 38

As the FALCON MJ module supports Auto-bauding a change of the M-Bus

speed is not required. The module will automatically detect the selected

baudrate of the M-Bus system

M-Bus address is the primary M-Bus address for the attached M-Bus device. In a 1:1

connection (1 adapter on the M-Bus), the broadcast address 254 can be used.

Every M-Bus terminal device must respond to the address 254. The default

setting for this address in the program is 254.

Connect to meter

is a control button which requests data from the M-Bus terminal

device in conjunction with automatic device type recognition. The

fields "Manufacturer", "Generation", "Type" and "M-Bus status byte"

will be updated with the device's responses. Depending on the

manufacturer and type of M-Bus device, new tab cards will then be

created.

Manufacturer

is a field that, following a successful read ("Meter connection"), will

display a 3 character M-Bus manufacturer code (upper-case ASCII

letters).

Generation

displays the version of the connected M-Bus module's firmware.

Type

displays the device type of the connected device (here: Honeywell /

Elster Falcon MJ). This field cannot be edited (read only).

Status displays the M-Bus status of the connected device.

ZVEI-Opto Mode

if this check-box is activated, devices with an optical interface which use the

EN1434-3 communications protocol can be read out and parameterized with

the help of an optical head (e.g. the PadPuls M4).

MDK (Sensus) this check-box activates the read out of Sensus meters with the Mini-Bus

interface and special inductive heads (MDK).

Autom. readout if this check-box is activated, the program will automatically re-read the

device's values after every write operation.

Log window The so-called "Log window" is always visible. All M-Bus communication

telegrams will be recorded in this window. Data will be displayed in

hexadecimal representation. Output in the log window can be marked and then

stored in the Windows clipboard with the "CTRL+C" key combination. From

the clipboard it is easy to paste the data into a text processing program for

documenting purposes. As soon as this window has reached its storage

capacity, no more data will be entered. The displayed data must be deleted in

order to allow recording to continue.

The following control buttons are also always visible:

Erase log deletes all output in the log window.

Exit terminates the program and writes the current setting for serial in-

terface selection into the INI file.
