5. Core Operational Modes (from the User Manual)
The MK6N Genius has three primary modes. Here is how to use each based on the official manual.
1. Introduction
The EDMI Mk6N Genius is a fully electronic, polyphase electricity meter capable of measuring active and reactive energy across four quadrants. It is widely utilized by utility companies for revenue metering due to its high accuracy, robust security features, and flexible communication options.
Key Features:
- Accuracy: Class 0.5 or 0.2 for Active Energy (IEC 62053-22).
- Display: Large, backlit LCD with push-button navigation.
- Communications: Optical port (IEC 62056-21), RS485, and optional cellular/GSM modules.
- Load Profile: Extensive data logging capabilities.
- Security: Password-protected access levels.
B. Linear & Arc Pocket Milling
Instead of calculating coordinates by hand:
FUNC > POCKET.
- Select rectangle, circle, or custom polygon.
