Re: Logging pulse output

Hi,
These instruments with pulse output will mostly provide a pulse for fraction of KWH measured, which you can integrate by counting using for example a microcntroller and use in your application. The device thus can be used as a KWH sensor as well as a display unit for your cross verification if required.

Thanks but... how?
How do I connect a PIC circuit to this devices?
 

Re: Logging pulse output

Hi,
The pulse output most likely will be voltage free contact or an opto output, which can be connected directly to a port pin of PIC , may be with a pull up resistor. The User manual of the device will specify all these.
