Chapter 9
Working with Broadcast Data
9.1
Introduction
All seven, broadcast data types referred to in this section are depicted on the Broadcast toolbar.
Broadcast data may be received directly in PSCSV software or through other software tools that
are compatible with C37.118 Phasor or Ethernet UDP.
Data logged in PSCSV may be saved in 1133A format and exported in CSV and PQDIF formats.
To facilitate data reception by multiple devices, the 1133A provides various options, including RS-
485 and Ethernet.
9.1.1
Filter Data Selection Tool
PSCSV provides a filtered view function so that you can limit the number of items in the viewing
window. Let’s suppose you want to view A-phase voltage and current and nothing else. When you
first start the Basic broadcast, you will see all data items that will more than fill up the viewing
window. To limit the number of parameters, follow the guidelines below. Also, you may arrange
the order of viewed parameters. See Figure 9.1
Figure 9.1: Basic Data Selection Screen
◦
From the PSCSV Toolbar, Select View
>
Filter Data, and you will see a window similar to
that shown in Figure 9.1.
◦
By default, all of the data items are selected, i.e. in the “Currently Viewed” side. Select the
items you do not want in this category and click the left-pointing arrow to move them into
“Available in Document” side, and click OK.
