loads, measurement inaccuracies on rms and peak current measurements will greatly affect
derived measurements such as power, power factor and crest factor.
The measurement system on the MX15 Series uses a data acquisition system with a 48 kHz
bandwidth. This means that high frequency components of the measured signal are filtered out.
Any contribution to the rms value of voltage and current above this cutoff frequency will not be
reflected in the MX Series measurements. When using an external measurement reference, this
may account for discrepancies in readings.
4.6 Advanced Measurements [1Pi Controller only]
The 1Pi controller offers advanced power analyzer measurement capabilities. They include
Harmonic Analysis and Waveform Acquisition. These functions are only available using the
provided GUI program since they cannot be graphically displayed on the two line display.
