MSCDN – MP2A Description of Operation  

2) Display is different when fewer output relays are fitted 

 

Note that meters not designated as primary or secondary values are usually displayed as multiples of 
nominal  

i.e. x In, 1 Amp or 5 Amp. 

5.7.1  Hidden Instruments 

At the “INSRUMENTS MODE” title screen, pressing ENTER and DOWN simultaneously reveals some 
additional metering for calibration purposes. The reference channels as well as DC offsets may be 
displayed along with the RMS values in raw ADC counts. The relationship between current and ADC 
counts is 1.0 xIn =  600 counts. 

5.8  Fault Data  Mode 

In “FAULT DATA MODE”, the time and date of relay operations are recorded together with a record of the 
LED flag states.
