Query Interval
Freely selectable query interval for each meter in list
That depends on meter reading list, since each meter will be read 1 by 1 over RS485 bus (or directly from RS232), reading interval depends on number of meters in list and read out reading time for each meter (based on its read out list)

Data Connection
Can be purchased in 2 versions:
1. PN Model: Phase to neutral model (Standart Model). That version gets power from terminal pins 1 and 2 from phase and neutral. It can also transmit data from that pins and other pins usage is optional (Ex: Master can be connected to all phases and slaves can be connected to relevant phases)
2. PP Model: Phase to phase model. That version also gets power from terminal pins 1 and 2 from phase and neutral. Data transmission only done through terminal pins 3 and 4. Phase to phase connection can be done to data transmission pins for better performance.
If not used then same phase and neutral connected to power input can still be connected for data transmission for terminal pins 3 and 4.
Power Connection
Can be purchased in 2 versions as well:
1. AC Powered version: 3 phase input, 110V–240V/50-60Hz for PN Models and single phase input for PP Models (L1-N or L2-N or L3-N).
2. DC Powered version: This model available as PP Model only (Phase to phase model) as data connection and gets 9-36V DC power from terminal pins 1 and 2. Data transmission only done through terminal pins 3 and 4.
