0: FIFO
Selects what happens when the memory is full.
"FIFO" (= first in, first out) replaces the oldest stored recording
with the latest one. "Keep olds" does not accept new recordings.

Selects the sample rate of the disturbance recorder in samples
per cycle. The samples are saved from the measured wave
according to this setting.

Disabled
Enables and disables the automatic transfer of recordings. The
recordings are taken from the relay's protection CPU and
transferred to the relay's FTP directory in the communication
CPU; the FTP client then automatically loads the recordings from
the relay and transfers them further to the SCADA system.
Please note that when this setting is enabled, all new disturbance
recordings will be pushed to the FTP server of the relay. Up to six
(6) recordings can be stored in the FTP at once. Once those six
recordings have been retrieved and removed, more recordings
will then be pushed to the FTP.
When a recording has been sent to the FTP server of the relay, it
is no longer accessible through setting tools

NOTE!
TE!
The disturbance recorder is not ready unless the "Max. length of a recording" parameter is
showing some value other than zero. At least one trigger input has to be selected in the
"Recorder Trigger" setting to fulfill this term.
Estimating the maximum length of total recording time
Once the disturbance recorder's settings have been made and loaded to the relay, the device
automatically calculates and displays the total length of recordings. However, if the user wishes to
confirm this calculation, they can do so with the following formula. Please note that the formula
assumes there are no other files in the FTP that share the 64 MB space.
Where:
• total sample reserve = the number of samples available in the FTP when no other files are
saved; calculated by dividing the total number of available bytes by 4 bytes (=the size of one
sample); e.g. 64 306 588 bytes/4 bytes = 16 076 647 samples.
