Step 5: Set the LENERGY bit, MASK[12] (0x18), to Logic 1
to enable the interrupt signaling the end of the line cycle
accumulation.
Step 6: Set the test system for I

Step 7: Read the FREQ (0x10) register if the line frequency is
unknown.
Step 8: Reset the interrupt status register by reading
RSTATUS (0x1A).
Step 9: Read all six xWATTHR (0x01 to 0x03) and xVAHR
(0x07 to 0x09) energy registers after the LENERGY interrupt
and store the values.
Step 9a: Calculate the values to be written to xWG registers

where:
MC is the meter constant.
θ is the angle between the current and voltage.
Line Frequency is known or calculated from the FREQ[11:0]
register. With the FREQ[11:0] register configured for line period
measurements, the line frequency is calculated with Equation 62.

Example: Watt Gain Calibration Using Line Accumulation
This example shows only Phase A watt calibration. The steps
outlined in the Gain Calibration Using Line Accumulation
section show how to calibrate watt, VA, and VAR. All three
phases can be calibrated simultaneously because there are nine
energy registers.
For this example, I

= 10 A, V
NOM
= 220 V, Power Factor = 1,
Frequency = 50 Hz, LINECYC (0x1C) is set to 0x800, and MC =
3200 imp/kWhr.
