Digital Event Report
(EVE D Command)
The digital event report includes:
➤
Digital states of control and protection elements, including
overcurrent and voltage elements (if voltage inputs are
available), plus status of digital inputs and outputs and RTD
status

Relay Settings
Use the EVE D n command to view the normal digital report with 4 samples/
cycle for report n (if not listed, n is assumed to be 1). EVE D R gives the
RAW report with 16 samples/cycle.
Refer to the example event report in Figure 9.6 to view the digital event report
columns.

NOTE:
The arctan function of many
calculators and computing programs
does not return the correct angle for
the second and third quadrants (when
X is negative). When in doubt, graph
the X and Y quantities to confirm that
the angle that your calculator reports
is correct.
