    • An apparatus for disposing a meter register in a default mode of operation includes a microcontroller coupled to a programmable non-volatile memory for automatically disposing the meter register in a self-programmed state when the electrical meter containing the meter register is installed for the first time. The self-programmed state is a functional default state and provides a monitoring utility company with accurate customer billing information from the time of installation. Accordingly, a technician responsible for installing the meter in the field need not be familiar with the techniques for programming the meter. If a mode of operation other than the default mode of operation is preferred, the microcontroller can be accessed for disposing the meter in a time-of-use and demand mode of operation or a demand only mode of operation. The microcontroller also provides means for retaining a programmed state of the meter register in the event of a power outage. Thus, when power is again supplied to the meter after an outage, the meter register is again disposed in the last programmed state prior to power failure.
    • 用于以默认操作模式配置仪表寄存器的装置包括耦合到可编程非易失性存储器的微控制器,用于在第一次安装包含仪表寄存器的电表时自动将仪表寄存器布置在自编程状态 。 自编程状态是功能默认状态,并且在安装时为监控公用事业公司提供准确的客户计费信息。 因此,负责在现场安装仪表的技术人员不需要熟悉用于对仪表进行编程的技术。 如果除默认操作模式之外的操作模式是优选的,则可以访问微控制器以将计量表置于使用时间和需求操作模式或仅需操作模式中。 在断电的情况下,微控制器还提供用于保持仪表寄存器的编程状态的装置。 因此,当断电后再次向仪表供电时,仪表寄存器在断电前再次处于最后的编程状态。

    • A method of processing binary characters received by an electrical energy meter includes the step of generating a clock signal internal to the meter so that asynchronously received serial data can be processed, even though a synchronization clock signal does not accompany the serial data. The method includes the steps of detecting receipt of a first of a string of binary input characters at a serial input/output port of the meter, and then sampling the detected first character by generating a respective first clock signal which is phase-synchronized with a least significant bit of the first character. These steps are then repeated in sequence for each subsequently received character in the string. The sampled characters can be temporarily stored in meter hardware such as a register and written to memory such as programmable read-only or random-access memory. Phase-synchronization between the sampling clock signals and each of the respective characters is achieved even though the data rate of the binary string (e.g., 9600 bits/sec) is unequal to an integer fraction of the frequency of the main crystal oscillator of the meter (e.g., 4.19 MHz), which controls meter operations.
    • 一种处理由电能表接收的二进制字符的方法包括产生仪表内部的时钟信号的步骤,即使同步时钟信号不伴随串行数据,也可以处理异步接收的串行数据。 该方法包括以下步骤:检测在仪表的串行输入/输出端口处的一串二进制输入字符的接收,然后通过产生与第一个时钟信号相同步的相应的第一时钟信号来对所检测的第一个字符进行采样 第一个字符的最低有效位。 然后,对于字符串中随后接收的每个字符,依次重复这些步骤。 采样字符可以临时存储在诸如寄存器的仪表硬件中,并写入诸如可编程只读或随机存取存储器之类的存储器。 即使二进制串的数据速率(例如,9600比特/秒)不等于仪表的主晶体振荡器的频率的整数分数,也可以实现采样时钟信号和各个字符之间的相位同步 (例如,4.19 MHz),可控制仪表运行。
