For User (DSP), Power Quality and System Triggers, the downloading process is the same, and
very much like Downloading Revenue Data.
1. Make certain that there is an open connection with the 1133A and that you are logged on
with permission to download events. For additional information, see “Connecting with the
1133A” and “1133A Security.”

Event to open the Download Event selection window.
3. Determine range of the event log data that you wish to download, and choose either the
“Select All” or the “Select Range” button to determine. If choosing “Select Range”, use the
two windows to select the event data range according to date and time.
4. Select “OK” and the Save As window will appear for you to choose a file name for the
downloaded data. A default name is supplied. Click “Save” and the selected event data
categories will begin filling the Download Session window. A progress meter will also indicate
the total number of event records have been transferred to file. Notice in event records are
separated into a list in Figure 8.9.
5. When the downloading of event data is complete, close the progress meter window, and the
Download Session window should remain. To view the event records themselves, click on the
desired event data type in the Session window and the Save As window will again appear.
Type in the file name, click “Save,” and the data should fill a spreadsheet window in PSCSV.
Notice in Figure 8.10 that the various events are tagged by the date and time, trigger number
and whether the trigger is Active or Inactive.
6. If you want to download the actual data recorded at the time of the event, you must have
selected this when configuring the trigger (see Section 8.5). If you did configure the “Data
Logged” feature, then there should be a line on Figure 8.9 that indicates a specific type of
data. In Figure 8.9 the line is named “PSCSV Event Basic”. Select this line to download the
recorded data.
7. The downloaded basic data records from the “PSCSV Event Basic” line in Figure 8.9 should
look very similar to those in Figures 9.2 and 9.3.
