Chapter 3 Front panel display and meter setup
This section applies to meters that are equipped with a front panel display. The front
panel display lets you use the meter to perform various tasks such as setting up the
meter, displaying data screens, acknowledging alarms, or performing resets.
LED indicators
The meter has two LED indicators on the front panel.
NOTE: For the PM5561 model, the alarm / energy pulsing LED is factory set for energy
pulsing only and cannot be modified or disabled.
Heartbeat / communications LED
The (green) heartbeat / communications LED blinks at a slow, steady rate to indicate
the meter is operational. The LED flashes at a variable, faster rate when the meter is
communicating over a Modbus serial communications port.
You cannot configure this LED for other purposes.

not blink or flash, contact Technical Support.
