Litemeter Modbus Pro questions

What does it measure, and how accurately?

Irradiance from 0 to 1600 W/m² at ±5% (±2.5% at STC, 25 °C), and temperature from −30 to +85 °C at ±1.0 °C. Response time is under 100 ms.

The irradiance value is not temperature-compensated.

What kind of sensor is it?

A monocrystalline silicon cell laminated in glass, covering the 0.3–1.1 µm spectral range in which PV modules produce energy.

Each unit is calibrated against a reference cell that is periodically calibrated by the ISFH institute, following IEC 60904-2, -4 and -10.

How is it powered and wired?

12–30 VDC, over a 2.5 m shielded cable that is UV and high-temperature resistant.

Red: +12–30 VDC. Black: 0 VDC. Green: RS485+ (B). Green/white: RS485− (A). Black-blue: ground.

What are the default Modbus settings?

Node address 60, 19,200 bps, 8N1. The address (1–247), bitrate (9,600–115,200 bps) and parity can be changed.

How big is it, and how is it mounted?

98 × 55 × 25 mm, or 112 × 55 × 66 mm with the mounting bracket, and 304 g.

It has an anodized aluminium housing rated IP65 and a bracket with a screw clamp.
