Installation Considerations
Installation and maintenance of the I/O Expander meter should only be performed by qualified, competent personnel
that have appropriate training and experience with high voltage and current devices. The meter must be installed in
accordance with all Local and National Electrical Codes.
DANGER
Failure to observe the following instructions may result in severe injury or death.
During normal operation of the I/O Expander meter, hazardous voltages are present on its terminal strips,
and throughout the connected potential transformer (PT), current transformer (CT), digital (status) input,
control power and external I/O circuits. PT and CT secondary circuits are capable of generating lethal
voltages and currents with their primary circuit energized. Follow standard safety precautions while per-
forming any installation or service work (i.e. removing PT fuses, shorting CT secondaries, etc).
The terminal strips on the meter base should not be user-accessible after installation.
Do not use digital output devices for primary protection functions. These include applications where the
devices perform energy limiting functions or provide protection of people from injury. Do not use the I/O
Expander in situations where failure of the devices can cause injury or death, or cause sufficient energy to
be released that can start a fire. The meter can be used for secondary protection functions.
Do not HIPOT/Dielectric test the digital (status) inputs, digital outputs, or communications terminals. Refer
to the label on the I/O Expander meter for the maximum voltage level the device can withstand.
CAUTION
Observe the following instructions, or permanent damage to the meter may occur.
The I/O Expander meter offers a range of hardware options that affect input ratings. The I/O Expander

I/O Expander for ION 8000 Series
The I/O Expander provides an Input/Output (I/O) and serial communications
interface for ION 8000 series meters. The Expander provides convenient
locations for RS-232 and RS-485 wiring, and takes advantage of the
ION 8000 series I/O capabilities. You can install and configure I/O without
affecting your meter’s operation; a multi-conductor cable combined with low
profile connectors allows you to remove the meter without disconnecting all
attached I/O wiring.
I/O Expander Overview
Its I/O capabilities enable recording and totaling of energy pulses from
external electricity, water or gas meters. With the ION 8000 series, you can
also monitor and record the status of auxiliary contacts, breakers, relays and
transformers, as well as special equipment such as transfer switches,
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and battery chargers. Accurate time-
stamping of state changes helps the operator determine the sequence of trip
events.
Digital outputs allow direct control of audio/visual alarm equipment when
over/under setpoint conditions occur. The I/O Expander can also provide
analog output signals proportional to key power parameters, and data can
be easily shared via "KYZ" and demand sync pulsing to other metering or
recording equipment, or via analog or digital output signals to an existing
Digital Control System (DCS).
Standard physical connectors for RS-232 and RS-485 ports allow data
sharing with energy management systems, either directly or via modems (e.g.
fibre, radio, and telephone).
