Checking Operation

Overvoltages
Gradually increase the input from 80% of the set value.
The input will equal the operating value when the input 
exceeds the set value and the alarm indicator starts flashing. 
Operation can be checked by the relay outputs that will start 
after the operating time has passed.
Undervoltage
Gradually decrease the input from 120% of the set value and 
check the operation using the same method as for 
overvoltage.

Example:  Overvoltage Operating Mode, Undervoltage Operating 

Mode and an Operating Time of 5 s

Note:

 output relays are normally operative.

How to Measure the Operating Time

Overvoltage
Change the input suddenly from 0% to 120% of the set value 
and measure the time until the Unit operates.
Undervoltage
Change the input suddenly from 120% to 0% of the set value 
and measure the time until the Unit operates.

Setting the Pre-alarm Monitoring Mode

Use the DIP switch to set the operating mode pins both to 
overvoltage (SW3 ON and SW4 OFF) or both to undervoltage 
(SW3 OFF and SW4 ON).

Example: Both Pins Set to Overvoltage

AL1 can be used as the pre-alarm for AL2 by setting a 
smaller voltage set value for AL1 than for AL2.
