The Timer retains its functionality at any position in space.

The Timer meets the requirements of the following: EN 60947-1; EN 60947-6-2; EN 55011; EN 61000-4-2

Harmful substances in an amount exceeding the maximum permissible concentrations are absent.

---

¹ Provided that synchronisation with the NTP exact time server is enabled and Internet access is available.

² On condition that the Timer has been online for at least 2 hours.

4. Operation conditions

The Timer is intended for operation in the following conditions:

• Ambient temperature: from minus 30 to +55 °С
• Atmospheric pressure: from 84 to 106.7 kPa
• Relative humidity (at temperature of +25 °С): 30 … 80 %

Caution

Before connecting to the power supply keep the product under the operating conditions within two hours (because of the possible condensation on the product elements).

ATTENTION

The timer is not intended for operation in the following conditions:

• Significant vibration and shocks
• High humidity
• Aggressive environment with content in the air of acids, alkalis, etc., as well as severe contaminations (grease, oil, dust, etc.)

5. Principle of operation

The Timer’s principle of operation is based on switching the load on/off according to the user’s preset schedule for the entire week (7 days).

A maximum of 1024 events can be set in EM-130 with an accuracy of 1 minute, which the user can distribute over the entire week (7 days) at their discretion.

As a single program event, the user sets:

• The start time of the event (from 00 h : 00 m to 23 h : 59 m) or the time offset relative to sunrise or sunset (±11 h : 59 m)
• Load relay status (enabled or disabled)

Each day, the timer calculates the time of sunrise and sunset and adjusts the time of the event associated with it.

Then, the event time is compared with the internal real-time clock and, if they are equal or the event time is greater than the real time, the Timer will enable/disable the load depending on the state specified in the event.

The above algorithm is performed for each user-defined event. However, if there are more than one events, only the event that is closest to the realtime clock will trigger, and other events will not be executed.

At latitudes where the polar day has occurred, events related to sunset will not be performed, and the time of sunrise is assumed to be 00 h : 00 m.

At latitudes where the polar night has occurred, events related to sunrise will not be performed, and the sunset time is assumed to be 00 h : 00 m.

Astronomical schedule example

Figure 2 shows an example of an astronomical programme where the schedule is set for the whole week – 4 events for each day, for street lighting – 4 hours after sunset and 4 hours before dawn, the rest of the time the lighting is turned off.

Figure 2 – Astronomical schedule example

Weekly schedule example

Figure 3 shows an example of a weekly program, where the schedule is set for the entire week and includes fourteen events to enable and disable the load every day at a certain time.

Figure 3 – Weekly schedule example

6. The Timer operation

When describing the operation of the Timer, the default settings are used.

After connecting EM-130 to the power supply network, its parameters are initialized for 2 seconds, then the timer begins to turn on/off the load according to the schedule set by the user.

Note

After 2 seconds, if the schedule is not set and manual control is disabled, the load remains disabled.

Besides, after EM-130 is connected with the supply network, the timer Wi-Fi switches to the mode set by the user («Wi-Fi access point», «Wi-Fi network client» or «Wi-Fi is OFF»).

Depending on the selected settings, the Web-interface of the timer (on port 80) or the Modbus TCP server (on port 502) is started.

If the timer operates in the «Wi-Fi network client» mode, and there are connections to the «Internet», then:

• Time synchronization with the NTP server is performed every 2 hours (provided that synchronization is enabled in the timer settings)
• A connection is being made to the Overvis server (provided that the connection is enabled in the timer settings) – to provide remote access from the «Internet» to the timer

When a manual control command is received (from the Web interface via the Modbus TCP protocol or the Overvis server), the execution of the currently scheduled event is blocked, the load is turned off (or turned on depending on the command), and the EM-130 switches to manual control mode (disable manual control to return the timer to the scheduled operation mode).

7. Wi-Fi operating modes

The Timer’s Wi-Fi can operate in four modes (three main and one additional intended for configuration):

• Wi-Fi Access Point Mode
• Wi-Fi network client mode
• Mode without using Wi-Fi
• Wi-Fi connection setup mode

Wi-Fi Access Point Mode

EM-130 creates its own access point with the name and password specified by the user during setup.

The user, upon connecting to this access point, and in the browser (Opera, Chrome, Firefox, etc.), after going to «http://192.168.4.1», gets access to the management and settings of EM-130.

Wi-Fi Client Mode

EM-130 automatically connects to the user-defined access point and starts all enabled services (Web-interface, Modbus TCP, and Overvis client).

The management and settings of EM-130 can be accessed via Modbus TCP, the Overvis client, or the Web-interface at the IP address issued to the timer by the router when connecting (for information on how to get the data on the current issued address, please refer to the Operating Instructions for the corresponding router).

If there is no Wi-Fi connection, the EM-130 will automatically try to connect again every 10-15 seconds.

Mode without using Wi-Fi

EM-130 disables Wi-Fi and does not use it for the entire duration of its operation.

To access the Timer’s settings, switch over to the Wi-Fi connection settings mode (see Wi-Fi connection setting up).

Wi-Fi Connection Setup Mode

EM-130 creates its own access point with the name «EM-130_xxxxxx» (where xxxxxx is the unique Timer’s code) and password «00000000».

The user, upon connecting to this access point, and in the browser (Opera, Chrome, Firefox, etc.) after going to «http://192.168.4.1», gets access to the Timer’s settings.

8. Connecting the Timer

THERE IS LIFE-THREATENING VOLTAGE ON THE TERMINALS AND INTERNAL ELEMENTS OF THE TIMER

Danger

The timer is not intended for short-circuit load switching, therefore, the Timer must be operated in an electrical network protected by a class “B” circuit breaker with a cut-off current of no more than 6 A.

DO NOT connect a load of more than 1.44 kW to the Timer.

Danger

TO AVOID MALFUNCTIONS, PLACE THE TIMER AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE FROM DEVICES THAT GENERATE HIGH-FREQUENCY OR INDUCTION RADIATION (FOR EXAMPLE, CONTACTORS, RF FURNACES, WELDING MACHINES, MACHINES, OR DEVICES THAT USE PULSED VOLTAGES).

Caution

All connections must be made when the product is de-energized.

DO NOT leave bared wire sections protruding beyond the terminal block.

To ensure the reliability of electrical connections, use flexible (multi-wire) wires with insulation for a voltage of at least 450 V, the ends of which must be stripped of insulation by 5±0.5 mm and compressed with bushing tips. Fixing the wires must prevent mechanical damage, twisting and erasing of the wires’ insulation.

The wire cross-section for connecting a load of 1.44 kW must at least be 1.0 mm².

For reliable contact, tighten the terminal block screws with a force of 0.4 N·m.

Tightening torque

When the tightening torque is reduced, the connection point heats up, the terminal block may melt and the wire may catch fire.

If the tightening torque increases, it is possible that the thread of the terminal block screws break or the connected wire gets pinched.

Wiring diagram

Connection procedure

1. Turn off the mains voltage using the circuit breaker.
2. Connect the Timer according to the wiring diagram and check that the connection is correct.
3. Turn on the circuit breaker.
4. Configure the Wi-Fi connection as described in the section Wi-Fi connection setting up.

9. Controlling the «Wi-Fi» button

The «Wi-Fi» button (Fig. 1, item 2) is used to control the Timer from the front panel.

When the «Wi-Fi» button is pressed and held, the «On/Off» indicator (Fig. 1, item 3) starts flashing with a period of 1 second helping to count down the time of holding the button.

When the button is released, the command depending on the button holding time starts to be executed, and the «On/Off» indicator starts flashing with a period of 0.15 seconds for 3 seconds.

Table 2 – Wi-Fi button commands

Holding time	Command
1 – 3 s	Restart the timer
5 – 8 s	Switches the Timer over to the Wi-Fi connection setup mode
10 – 15 s	Reset to factory settings

11. Connecting to the Timer via the local Wi-Fi network

Control and configuration via a local Wi-Fi network is only possible after preconfiguring the Wi-Fi connection (see Wi-Fi connection setting up) and enabling remote access via the Web-interface in the product settings.

In the router settings, you must reserve the IP address of the product by its MAC address (see the Operating Instructions for the router). Or when setting up a Wi-Fi connection, you need to set the «Custom» in the «IP Settings» field and specify static settings:

• IP address – is an unoccupied address in your network (for example: 192.168.0.105 or 10.0.0.5)
• Subnet mask – is your subnet mask (example: 255.255.255.0 or 255.0.0.0)
• Main gateway – is your router’s IP address (example: 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1)
• DNS1 – is the primary name server (example: 208.67.222.222)
• DNS2 – is the secondary name server (example: 8.8.8.8)

Enter the link «http://192.168.0.105» in the address bar of the browser (Chrome, Opera, Firefox, etc.) of the electronic device (PC, laptop, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) and follow it (where 192.168.0.105 is a specified static IP address of the Timer, which may be reserved on the router).

12. Connecting to the EM-130 via Modbus TCP

Control and configuration via Modbus TCP is only possible after preconfiguration Wi-Fi connections (see Wi-Fi connection setting up) and enabling the remote access via Modbus TCP in the Timer settings.

The Modbus TCP communication protocol allows you to connect EM-130 to the network organized according to the Ethernet standard. Using EM-130 in the network allows you to perform the following functions:

• Data collection in SCADA systems
• Programming EM-130 via a PC (using specialized programs that work with the Modbus TCP protocol)
• Remote control of EM-130 within the local network

When connecting to EM-130, access to the command register and the write-in function is blocked (the read function is not blocked). To unlock the register of command and the write-in function, insert the access code in ASCII characters (default value: «admin») in registers 101 – 164. Write zero values (0000h) in unused registers.

If the access code value is correct, EM-130 will unlock access to the register of command and the write-in function.

The EM-130 is controlled via the command register (see Appendix A. Addresses of registers for Modbus TCP protocol).

After changing the settings is completed, write the value 51930 in the Command Register (a record for the non-volatile (flash) memory). For the changes to take effect, write the value 17513 to the command register (EM-130 restart).

If the write-in functions or access to the command register are not used for a long period of time, block access to them by writing a value other than the access code (for example, 0000h) in registers 101 – 164.

If there is no data exchange within 60 seconds, EM-130 automatically breaks the connection with the client.

Data format for values with decimal point

In EM-130, all values with a dot are represented as integers. Therefore, additional mathematical operations must be applied when processing the data.

Before writing a value with a dot to EM-130 (for example: 1.000), convert it to an integer by multiplying the value by a factor (1000), and then the result may be written to EM-130.

On a request to read the value with a dot (for example: 1.000), EM-130 returns an integer (1000). To convert the integer to the correct form, divide this number by the conversion factor (1000).

The conversion factor to an integer is determined by the number of decimal places (1.0 – 10; 1.00 – 100; 1.000 – 1000).

Supported Modbus functions

• 03h – Read one or more registers (maximum 125)
• 06h – Single register entry
• 10h – Record of one or more registers (maximum 123)

Caution

EM-130 has a limitation on the number of Modbus TCP clients connected at the same time (no more than four). All connections that exceed the limit will be closed automatically.

13. Connecting to the EM-130 via the Overvis server

Overvis is a system for monitoring, visualization and remote control of technological processes.

Overvis allows you to:

• Perform round-the-clock periodic data reading
• Save data automatically to your own database
• View data in a convenient form
• Receive alerts about accidents in the form of SMS or E-Mail

Information that is more detailed can be found on the official website www.overvis.com.

The Overvis system acts as a server for collecting data from EM-130 and other devices connected simultaneously, and provides real-time data access only with the permission of the EM-130 owner.

Caution

The service may be chargeable.

The Manufacturer’s settings of EM-130 are prepared for connecting to the Overvis server, while the Overvis client themselves are disabled in EM-130 and must be activated manually by the User.

To connect EM-130 to the Overvis server

1. Connect EM-130 to a Wi-Fi network with the available «Internet»
2. Enable the Overvis client in the remote access settings
3. In the remote access settings, make sure that the connection to the server is established and the activation code is received

Option 1:

1. Scan the QR code (pasted on the side of EM-130) and click on the received link
2. Create or log in to your account

Option 2:

1. Go to the site «https://overvis.com»
2. Create or log in to your account
3. Add a new network by filling in the required fields:
   • Name – the name of the network being created (for example, EM-130 network)
   • Modbus TCP Device – Novatek-Electro EM-130
   • Connection type – reverse connection with activation code
   • Activation code – specify the activation code from the EM-130 settings
   • Password for requesting changes to the device parameters in the network – specify the device password from the EM-130 settings
4. Add a new device by filling in the required fields:
   • Name – the product name (for example, EM-130)
   • Modbus ID – 1
   • Initiate from template – Novatek-Electro EM-130

Security recommendation

If at the first connection of EM-130 to the Overvis server the activation code value indicates that the connection has already been activated, for security reasons, we recommend you to click the «Reset Activation Code» button to remove EM-130 from the Overvis system. This ensures that the plugged-in EM-130 will only be used by eligible users.

14. Connecting to the Timer in the Wi-Fi Access Point mode

Connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot with the help of an electronic device (PC with Wi-Fi, phone, tablet, laptop, etc.) using the Wi-Fi name and password earlier specified by the user when configuring the Timer (see Wi-Fi connection setting up).

Enter the link «http://192.168.4.1» in the electronic device browser address bar (Chrome, Opera, Firefox, etc.) and navigate through it.

When the password entry page will appear on the screen of the timer, from which the transition was made enter the password («admin», by default) and click «Login».

15. Connecting to the Timer in the none-Wi-Fi mode

You cannot connect to the Timer in the none-Wi-Fi mode.

To restore connection to the Timer, configure Wi-Fi according to the section Wi-Fi connection setting up.

16. Real-time clock correction

Correction of the real-time clock enables compensating for the time lost by the real-time clock due to the influence of external factors on the Timer (such as temperature, humidity, etc.) within one day, from minus 20.9 s to +20.9 seconds.

Correction of the clock is performed in the group of parameters «Date and Time».

Example: If the clock is 4.2 seconds slow per day, you must specify a correction value of +4.2 seconds, and if the clock is 4.2 seconds fast, you must specify a correction value of minus 4.2 seconds.

17. Reboot the Timer

Using a thin non-metallic object (such as a toothpick), press and hold the «Wi-Fi» button for 1-3 seconds on the front panel of the Timer. In this case, the «On/Off» indicator will flash rapidly (0.15 s) for 3 seconds, and the Timer will automatically restart.

Note

You can perform a reboot from the Timer’s Web interface by going to settings and clicking the «Reboot device» button.

18. Resetting to factory settings

Using a thin non-metallic object (such as a toothpick) press and hold the «Wi-Fi» button for 10-15 seconds on the front panel of the Timer. In this case, the «On/Off» indicator will start flashing every second (helping to count down the time).

Release the «Wi-Fi» button. In this case, the «On/Off» indicator will start flashing rapidly (a period of 0.15 seconds).

When the operation has been completed, the status indicator will stop flashing and the Timer will automatically restart.

The Timer has been reset to factory settings and is ready for use.

Note

1. Reset can be performed from the Timer’s Web-interface by going to the settings and clicking the «CLICK HERE» link, as shown in the figure below.

Creating a Schedule

On the main screen of the Web-interface, click the menu button. Then, in the menu select «SCHEDULE».

On the schedule screen, click the «New event» button, and the screen will display the input field for the new event.

In EM-130, you can create two types of events, normal, or associated:

• Normal event implies one event – enable (or disable) the load at the specified time
• Associated event involves two actions – turn on the load at the specified time, and then turn off the load at the specified time. In this case, the turn-on time should be less than the turn-off time

Note

If the sequence of actions in the associated event is broken (the turn-on time becomes longer than the turn-off time, for example, due to different sunrise/sunset times in summer and in winter), the execution of such an event gets blocked and the event in the list is marked with a LOCK sign.

Switching between a normal event and an associated event is performed by the parameter «This is a related event».

Custom event fields:

• Condition of loading – the action that will be performed by the event (enabling / disabling the load)
• Trigger time – the time when the event is triggered
• Trigger days – the event trigger days
• Load ON – the time when the load of the associated event is turned on
• Load OFF – the time when the load of the associated event is turned off

Press the «Add» button to add an event.

Press the «Close» button to quit the event-adding mode.
