Bits 13-8: These six bits (SUM_CYCLES) define the length of the accumulation interval τ per the formula:
6.2520
42_
=
CYCLESSUM
τ
Allowed values are 24 (400ms) through 60 (1000ms), unless the post-processor is disabled. Bit 8 is the LSB.
It is important to note that the length of the accumulation interval, as determined by SUM_CYCLES, is not an exact multiple
of 1000ms. For example, if SUM_CYCLES = 60, the resulting accumulation interval is:
ms

This means that accurate time measurements should be based on the RTC, not the accumulation interval.
Bit 14: This bit (CKOUT_DISB) disables the CKOUT pin when set. The CKOUT pin can be used for diagnostics. For EMC
compliance and power saving reasons, CKOUT_DISB should always be set.
Bit 15: This bit (ADC_DIS) disables the ADC when set, e.g. to save power. Of course, no metering or measuring can be
performed with the ADC disabled.
Bits 18-16: These three bits (TMUX) select the source for the TMUX diagnostic output pin. For EMC compliance and
power saving reasons, TMUX should be zero (default) if unused.
