8.5 Logging Data when Triggers Occur
85
If you want to separate the logging parameters for each External Event Input, then select the
different Channel buttons at the top of the window and repeat the process above.
4. See Figure 8.6 to continue setting up the data to be logged when an external trigger occurs.
5. Finish the external trigger setup on any other external triggers you may require.
6. When you click the OK button, PSCSV will indicate that it is going to erase memory. Click
the Yes button.
7. Recheck the external triggering signals to verify that the voltage is within the specification.
If it is a logic level (i.e. 0 to 5 Vdc), make the changes specified in Chapter 14.

Logging Data when Triggers Occur
The “Data Logged” menus allow you to set up how the 1133A records data when an event occurs.
Also, to allow better control over which data is recorded with specific triggers, there are eight
channels to separate them. Using Channels, one trigger could be used to start logging basic data
and another trigger could be used to start logging phasor data. Logging Data is easily set up as
follows:
1. Specify the Channel and Trigger(s) – User and/or System – associated with the Channel.
2. Specify the Logging Parameters – data type and logging time.
3. Specify the data items recorded – based on data type.
4. Repeat the above three steps with other triggers.
NOTE:
No actual data will be logged in the event of a trigger without configuring the steps
contained in this section.
Configuring System Triggers
Click the System Triggers button in the Data Logged window to open the list of dedicated triggers
available for the 1133A. System Triggers are mainly used to monitor the health of the 1133A. See
Table 8.1 for a list of system triggers.
