ION6200 Revenue Meter
This document applies to ION6200 meters with firmware version 205 or greater, and explains how to set up and seal the meter for revenue functionality.
Revenue meters provide power measurements that are within industry‐accepted limits for accuracy over a defined range of operating conditions, and provide adequate protection against unauthorized alteration of these measured quantities.
International and national standards define industry‐accepted accuracy limits.
National and utility‐based standards regulate protection against unauthorized alteration of measured quantities.

Security Mechanisms ION6200 Revenue Meter
Security Mechanisms
To meet government regulations and utility security requirements, the revenue meter incorporates three types of security systems: a traditional anti‐tamper mechanical seal on the meter base unit.
a password‐based security system that permits password‐protected Peak
Demand reset.
a hardware‐based security system that prevents modification of measured quantities after the meter is sealed.
Anti-Tamper Seal
The revenue meter incorporates a sealing tab and a sealing plate through which a traditional lead–wire seal is inserted. When utilized, this lead‐wire seal effectively prevents unauthorized personnel from altering any revenue‐related meter measurements.
The sealing tab has two different hole sizes to accommodate different sealing methods. It is recommended that the smaller hole be used with traditional lead‐
wire seals. Refer to page 5.
Password Protected Peak Demand Register Reset
The meter front panel incorporates a password that must be entered to reset the peak demand register values. To learn about meter resets, refer to the section
“Reset Mode” in the ION6200 Installation and Operation Guide.
Hardware Locking Security
The revenue meter is equipped with a comprehensive security system that provides protection against unauthorized alteration or tampering of revenue‐related quantities. This security system locks all revenue‐related measurements. Of particular importance is that basic meter configuration parameters including Volts
Mode (service‐type), the PT ratio, and the CT ratio are locked. These locks are enabled by default for all sealed revenue meters. Typical values that are protected include: kWh, kVARh, kVAh delivered, received kW, kVAR, kVA Sliding Window demand values digital outputs controlling the energy pulsing applications all power system settings, including PT an CT ratios
A four‐pin hardware locking jumper is used to enable and disable the hardware security as described in the next section.

ION6200 Revenue Meter Revenue Meter Configuration
Revenue Meter Configuration
Your revenue meter includes firmware version 205 or greater, and ships with: a power supply an Option Card a hardware locking jumper sealing hardware
A typical workflow for configuring your meter as a revenue meter is:
1.
Enable revenue meter functionality by applying the hardware locking jumper to the meter, and powering up the meter.
2.
Set up meter parameters. Note that some meter parameters can be configured
after the meter is “hardware locked”. See “Configurable Parameters for the hardware‐locked Revenue Meter” on page 6.
3.
Seal the meter with the sealing hardware, then power up the meter (without the hardware locking jumper applied) to “hardware lock” the meter.
N OTE
Once the meter is revenue sealed you must continue to use the same Option Card used when the meter was originally sealed. If you replace the original Option Card with another, the meter’s display will show
0 (zero) for I4 and Frequency.
To enable revenue meter functionality (step 1 listed above), the meter must be disassembled.
Before Disassembling the Meter
D ANGER
During normal operation of the meter, hazardous voltages are present which can cause severe injury or death. These voltages are present on the terminal strips of the device and throughout the connected potential transformer (PT), current transformer (CT), status input, relay, and control power circuits.
Installation and servicing should be performed only by qualified, properly trained personnel.
Before disassembling the meter, take the following precautions.
1.
Open all PT fuses (or direct voltage input fuses) and close all CT shorting blocks.
2.
Turn off all power to the revenue meter and disconnect the Line and Neutral (or
DC power) wires from the Supply Power inputs to the meter.
3.
Disconnect all other wiring (or power off all other circuits) which may present potentially hazardous voltage levels to the unit, such as connections to the relay outputs.
4.
Ensure that all cables still connected to the revenue meter are NOT live.

Enabling Revenue Meter Functionality ION6200 Revenue Meter
Enabling Revenue Meter Functionality
A meter is not a revenue meter until the meter is powered up for the first time after the hardware locking jumper is applied.
Follow the directions below to enable revenue functionality.
1.
Install the Options Card by sliding it into the slot on the back of the meter. For detailed instructions, refer to the ION6200 Options Card Retrofit Instructions.
2.
Place the hardware locking jumper into the receptacle (see below).
Receptacle
Hardware
Locking Jumper
3.
Plug the power supply into the meter. For detailed instructions, refer to the
ION6200 Power Supply Retrofit Instructions.
4.
Power up the meter. Revenue functionality is now enabled and the meter is ready for configuration.
Hardware Locking the Revenue Meter
A revenue meter is “hardware locked” when the hardware locking jumper is not applied at meter power up. (A revenue meter is “hardware unlocked” when the jumper is applied on meter power up).

Crimped seal
Detail A
To seal the meter, follow the directions below.
1.
Place the sealing plate over the top of the sealing tab as shown in the illustration above.
2.
Insert the sealing wire through one of the holes in the sealing tab.
3.
Twist the wire and crimp the lead seal on to the wire (refer to detail A above).
4.
Install the Options Card by sliding it into the slot on the back of the meter. For detailed instructions, refer to the ION6200 Options Card Retrofit Instructions.
5.
Plug the power supply into the meter. For detailed instructions, refer to the
ION6200 Power Supply Retrofit Instructions.
6.
Power up the meter.
Because the hardware locking jumper is not applied to the meter, the meter is now hardware locked. Once the meter has been hardware locked, the Options Card that is currently in the meter becomes tied to that meter using the Option Card serial number.
If the key is switched after the meter is sealed, the meter will display only frequency and I4. Modbus register access is blocked and pulsing stops.
An option key can be swapped out of a hardware locked meter only by unlocking the meter with the hardware locking jumper, replacing the option key, and then locking the meter again.

Configuring Revenue Meter Parameters ION6200 Revenue Meter
Configuring Revenue Meter Parameters
You can configure setup parameters for your revenue meter: out of the box after revenue meter functionality has been enabled and the meter is hardware unlocked when the revenue meter is hardware locked
Configurable Parameters for the hardware-unlocked Revenue Meter
Hardware unlocked revenue meters allow you to configure all of the setup parameters and perform Demand Resets including an Energy Demand reset.
Configurable Parameters for the hardware-locked Revenue Meter
Hardware locked revenue meters allow you to: configure the communication parameters configure the communication scaling configure the display update parameters configure the password perform a Peak Current Demand reset perform Peak Power Demand reset
N OTE
An Energy Demand reset cannot be performed.
For meter configuration instructions, refer to the ION6200 Installation and Operation
Guide.
Unsealing and Unlocking a Revenue Meter
A revenue meter is unsealed when the anti‐tamper wire seal is removed. A revenue meter is hardware unlocked when the hardware locking jumper is applied to the meter on power up.
To unseal, then unlock the meter, follow the directions below.
1.
Remove the anti‐tamper wire seal.
2.
Remove the sealing plate.
3.
Unlock the meter by applying the hardware locking jumper to the meter.
4.
Power up the meter. Unlocked meters allow you to configure all of the setup parameters. Refer to the ION6200 Installation and Operation Guide for configuration details.
