User defined events
The monitoring functions of the device can be configured for user defined events. By default, events are deactivated
(action = NONE). Contrary to device alarms, the events only work while the DC input is switched on. It means, for
instance, that you cannot detect undervoltage (UVD) anymore after switching the DC input off and the voltage is
still sinking.
The following events can be configured independently and can, in each case, trigger the actions NONE, SIGNAL,
WARNING or ALARM.

These events should not be confused with alarms such as OT and OVP which are for device
protection. User defined events can, however, if set to action ALARM, switch off the DC input
and thus protect the source application, such as sensitive electronic hardware.
► How to configure user defined events
1.
While the DC input is switched off tap the touch area
on the main screen.
2.
On the right side tap the arrows
to select “
4.1 Event U
” or “
4.2 Event I
” or “
4.3
Event P
”.
3.
Set the monitoring limits with the left hand rotary knob and the triggered action with the right hand knob
relevant to the application (also see
).
4.
Accept the settings with
.
User events are an integral part of the actual user profile. Thus, if another user profile, or the
default profile, is selected and used, the events will be either differently or not configured.
The set values can be entered using the ten-key tab. This will appear after tapping the touch
area “Direct input” on the particular page.
