МBCS-2/4/6/8 are n-input pulse counters, intended to connect
in m-bus network tax instruments or other devices, which
do not have m-bus interface, but pulse outputs. One MBCS-2/4/6/8
can connect maximum of 2/4/6/8 devices with pulse output
to m-bus network. They are double powered - normally power
supply is from the network, but if network failed for some
reason, they switch to internal battery powered supply.
This backup battery assures minimum 96h work time w/o external
power supply. We also offer as an option additional battery,
which will give minimum 90 days work time for the device.
When network voltage is up again, the battery is recharged.
to full capacity. When a data readout occurred, MBCS also
sends battery status, so the additional batteries can be
changed before they die.
MBCS-2/4/6/8 have embedded real time clock and calendar,
which allows to track up to four time tariffs for each input.
Collected pulses for each tariff, and total pulses for each
input are saved in separate registers and are read through
m-bus network. Tariff defining can be done only via m-bus
network.
For client purposes MBCS-x have 8-digit symbol LCD display.
The user can check in any moment collected pulses on each
input or tariffs, cost of the pulses, medium measured (m3,
кWh, etc.), last payment, total payments, etc. These are
valid only if correct programming has been made by supplier
and can not be taken for real payment, they are intended
to orient the customer.
