Settling time
1s – 120 s
F
Set the settling time in the event of an abrupt change in the reactive
power target value (e.g. caused by a voltage jump). The transient re-
sponse corresponds to a first-order filter (PT-1) with settling time =
5Tau.

Downtime

F
Set the intentional delay for the start of the Q(U) function.
NOTE: If the voltage switches from a characteristic curve section with
Q=0 to a characteristic curve section with Q≠0 under active control,
then the reactive power setting process is delayed by the set dead
time. Once the dead time has expired, the control circuit is no longer
subject to a delay and the set settling time determines the transient
behaviour.

NOTE: In addition to configuring the transient behaviour using the set-
tling time corresponding to a first-order filter, the reactive power set-
ting can be determined by a maximum gradient - maximum change in
the reactive power per time period.
