manual. This document should not be viewed as sufficient by otherwise non-qualified

personnel to operate, service, or maintain the equipment discussed.

•Disconnect and lock-out all power supplying equipment before working on or

installing WaveStar®Color Monitor components. Use a properly rated voltage sensing

device to confirm power is OFF.

•Install device in an appropriate electrical enclosure per local regulations.

•ESD sensitive equipment. Ground yourself, discharge any static charge and ensure

that the device is effectively grounded before handling the unit.

The WaveStar®Color Monitor must be installed by licensed electricians or

by PDI-authorized technicians.

DANGER!

Severe or fatal injury can result from electrical shock during contact with high

voltage conductors, monitoring PCBs, or similar equipment.

Disconnect power before drilling holes, attaching conduit, and attaching WaveStar®

Color Monitors to PDUs, RPPs, or other power distribution equipment.

Use Lock Out/Tag Out procedures.

Wear suitable personal protective clothing and use protective equipment for

performing mechanical and electrical installations.

Leave ample space for attaching and routing wires.

1Introduction

1.1 WaveStar Color Monitor Summary

The WaveStar®Color Monitor is a 7-inch color touchscreen which displays power management

information for up to twenty (20) Branch Circuit Monitoring System (BCMS) devices and other PDI

devices in the Monitor’s downstream Modbus network.

The Color Monitor is incorporated into PDI products, such as PDUs, RPPs, or JCOMM®s, and can

also function as a stand-alone power monitoring station.

Figure 1 shows the Monitor used in a JCOMM®.

Figure 1 WaveStar Color Monitor Installed in a JCOMM

1.2 Power On and Access

The Color Monitor does not have an on/off switch. The Monitor automatically powers-on whenever

power is applied to the unit in which it is installed.

When the unit is powered on for the first time, the Home Screen appears (Figure 2).

The Color Monitor is accessed by touching the screen. If the unit is powered up and is not touched for

15 minutes, the backlight will turn off to save power. The backlight turns back on when the operator

again touches the screen, showing the last displayed screen.

1.3 Screen Summary and Navigation

Setup and configuration information for the Color Monitor are on these screens:

•SETUP: system parameters, such as number of devices in Monitor’s chain

•Device SETTINGS: Device-specific parameters, such as user-specified device name

(DEVICES Device Name SETTINGS)

•SOFTWARE VERSIONS: a list of software versions for each device, accessible only from

the HOME screen.

•DEVICES screen gives a list of all devices in the Monitor’s chain.

•Device SETTINGS screen lets you set device name and parameters specific to the

device.

Setpoints in the device’s points list, such as breaker alarm thresholds, are not viewable or modifiable

on the Monitor.

Power monitoring information as it is stored in each device’s points list (or Modbus register map) is in

each DEVICE READINGS screen.

Alarms and warnings are displayed on these screens:

•ALARM: List of all extant warnings and alarms by device name

•All screens: Warning and alarm summary counts

HELP screen contains Modbus information.

1.4 Entering Data

When you touch a field that requires alphanumeric data, such as device names, passwords, or

version numbers, a touchscreen keyboard will appear, prompting you for information based on

context. You can toggle between LETTERS and SYMBOLS keyboards, for entering text or numbers

(Figure 3).

•The main navigation buttons are present on each screen.

•Touch a button to select that screen.

Button turns blue when selected.

2Color Monitor Networking

2.1 Supported Protocols

All protocols supported by the Color Monitor can be used simultaneously.

Downstream Protocol The downstream device network has fixed parameters of Modbus RTU, 9600

baud, EVEN parity.

Upstream Protocols There are separate upstream ports for Modbus RTU and Ethernet, supporting

these protocols:

•Modbus RTU

•Ethernet port

•TCP/IP, used by the web page server (see Chapter 7, Web Pages)

•Modbus TCP/IP

•SNMP Version 1

2.2 Monitor Network Connections

The Color Monitor’s backpanel has Modbus RTU and Ethernet ports (Figure 4).

For Color Monitors embedded in PDI products (PDUs, RPPs, or JCOMMs), Modbus RTU backpanel

connections are typically made in manufacturing and extended to a terminal block or external panel

for convenient customer access. See 2.5 Customer Modbus RTU Connections.

The customer’s Ethernet cable is connected directly to the Monitor’s Ethernet port.
