START:MAN

The recording of all the selected parameters will start at 00
seconds after pressing

START/STOP

(see chapter REF

_Ref6712586 \r \h 10.1).

☺

STOP:MAN

The recording of all the selected parameters will be interrupted
manually by pressing

START/STOP

(see chapter 10.1).

☺

START:AUTO

STOP:AUTO

The recording of all the selected values will be started / interrupted at
the set dates and times. In order to start the recording the user will
have to press START/STOP to set the instrument in Stand-by mode
until the start date and time previously set (see chapter REF
_Ref6712622 \r \h 10.1).

INT. PERIOD

The value of this parameter determines how many seconds will
elapse before the values of

all the selected parameters

will be

memorised (see chapter 16.13.1). Available choices:
5sec,10sec,30sec,1min,2min,5min,10min,15min,30min,60min.

HARM REC.

ON

= the instrument will record the values of the selected

voltage and current harmonics

.

OFF = the instrument

will not record

any voltage or current

harmonic selected

ANOM REC.

ON

= the Instrument will record Voltage Anomalies (voltage Sag

and Surge) (see paragraph 16.10)

Vref

(Only if ANOM. REC

flag has been set ON)

RMS reference value for Voltage used in Voltage Anomalies
detection (Voltage Sag and Surge). The Reference is:
a) Voltage Phase to Neutral for Single Phase and 4 wire three

phase system.

b) Voltage Phase to Phase for 3 wire three phase system.

☺

Single phase:

230V

3 Phase system:

3 wires:

400V

4 wires

230V

LIM+, LIM-

(Only if ANOM. REC

flag has been set ON)

High and Low Voltage Percent threshold used in Voltage
Anomalies detection (Voltage Sag and Surge). These parameters
can be adjusted in range 3%

÷

30% (step 1%).

Example: Three Phase System 4 wire.
Vref = 230, LIM+= 6%, LIM-=10% =>
High Lim = 243.8V, Low Lim = 207.0V
The Instrument will detect a voltage Anomaly if the RMS Voltage
Values (calculated every 10ms) are beyond the above calculated
thresholds (see paragraph 16.10.
