5. Operation
Usage Depending on the Application (Alarm, Operating Time, Password, etc.)
The following shows how to use the instrument depending on the application.
5.2.1. Upper/Lower Limit Alarm Display and Action
When the set upper/lower limit alarm value is exceeded, the display starts to blink.
*For details on how to set the upper/lower limit alarm, refer to
■
Action in case of alarm
Alarm generating:
When the set alarm value is exceeded, the display blinks.
*Note
Alarm cancellation: When an alarm is cancelled, the display turns to the normal mode.
Note: When you set the alarm delay time, an alarm will generate if the set upper/lower limit alarm value is exceeded and
this situation continues for the alarm delay time.

Note1: If measuring elements of alarm generating are displayed on the screen, the digital value, unit (A, V, W, PF, Hz, %,
DM, and THD), and phase (1, 2, 3, and N) will be displayed according to the alarm status as the following table.

Note1: For 12-phase or 31-phase of 1-phase 3-wire system, alarm monitoring is executed based on twice the set
upper/lower limit alarm value.
Note2: Harmonic current 2-phase is measured for 3-phase 3-wire system (3CT) only.
*When the phase of no alarm is
displayed on the screen, it does not
blink.
