Harmonic Metering Function (METER H Command)
The harmonic metering function, in response to the
METER H
(
MET H
) command, retrieves
one full cycle of unfiltered sample data (64 samples) from each of the 12 analog inputs.
Harmonic magnitudes are obtained using a Fast Fourier Transform method, which calculates a
discrete Fourier transform, given by the following equation, for each harmonic from fundamental
to 15th.

= result of the discrete Fourier transform calculation for the nth harmonic
After all harmonics are calculated, they are adjusted to compensate for filter gain, and the
resulting magnitudes are listed in secondary quantities:
