Energy Platform Features
Touch screen
function
All Energy Platform functions described below are operable using a color LCD touch
screen technology. Users may use a finger and/or a PDA stylus to apply pressure to the
LCD screen to result in touch screen recognition. The touch screen display is also
workable with lineman gloves on. Touch screen buttons will appear in reverse-video to
show visual feedback of contact along with audible feedback. In order to reduce power
consumption, the backlight of the LCD screen times-out after a specified
programmable time of no user activity. The backlight reactivates by touching any part
of the screen.
Scope mode
Scope mode functions as an oscilloscope, displaying real-time waveforms of voltage
and current for up to eight channels simultaneously, with one second update rate. The
colors of waveform display are user programmable. Scope mode also provides a textual
display of rms values, division for axis values, and frequency.
Meter mode
Meter mode functions as a true rms voltmeter and a true rms clamp-on ammeter.
Voltage and current measurements, along with other calculated parameters, are
displayed on the Meter mode screens in both textual and graphical format.
Harmonics
Harmonics display the amplitude and phase of each harmonic to the 63rd harmonic in
both graphical and textual format.
Phasor diagram
The phasor screen displays a graph that indicates phase relations between voltage and
current based upon the angles at the fundamental frequency, as determined by Fourier
analysis. Phasor diagram displays voltage and current phasors for all channels.
Functioning as a phase angle meter, the unit can display system imbalance conditions
and provides such information in textual form also. The phase angle display can also
verify if monitoring connections have been made correctly. Animated phasor demo
rotations demonstrating resistive, inductive and capacitive loads can be displayed.
Event
Energy Platform features an Event List screen which shows a summary of all captured
events in the order that they occurred. An event occurs when a programmed threshold
limit is crossed. Energy Platform is able to record three types of events namely sag,
swell or aggregate snapshot.
