1.  Setting Main CT Primary, Main CT Secondary, PT Ratio and Mode of control action. 

In order to give  actual voltage and current  values in  your system, Main  CT Primary and 
Secondary as well as PT Ratio  should be set. Main CT Primary can be select from 5 to 
5000. main CT Secondary can be select 1 or 5. PT Ratio can be select from 1, 3.7727, 4.0, 
6.2727, 30, 60, 100, 200, 300, 600 and 1200. 

For PF correction,  there are four types of  Control Action such as  VAR, PID,  SFIFO and 
FIFO which are selectable at site. In case the control action is selected to VAR, Minimum 
Bank, Capacitor CT and AUTOSENSING become relevant as programmable parameters. 
However,  these  parameters  are  not  applicable  in  case  of  FIFO  or  SFIFO  mode  control 
action. 

To set above parameters, proceed as follows: 

Once in Programming mode,  

1.  Set Arrow (>) to the desired parameters using       and       keys and press       key. Now 

Arrow (>) starts blinking which means value of this parameter can be set now. Set desired 
value by using         and          keys and again press        key to save its value. 

 

 

 

2.  If other parameters need to be changed, do so using similar method. Else, press      

key for about four seconds continuously. The unit will restart and enter into run mode. 

 

2. 

Setting Capacitor CT Enable, Capacitor CT Primary and Secondary and Desired PF

 

 

In  VAR  control  action  mode,  using  capacitor  CT,  proper  Bank  KVAR  can  be  sensed. 
Capacitor CT Primary and Capacitor CT Secondary will be enable in case of CAP_CT_ENB 
is set to YES. Capacitor CT Primary can be set from 5 to 5000. Capacitor CT Secondary 
can be set to 1 or 5. The desired PF can be set to either LE

AD or LAG according to user’s 

requirement. In case of LAG, the PF could be set from 0.800 to 1.000. In case of LEAD, the 
PF could be setting from 1.800 to 1.999. e.g., the PF to be set for 0.998 LEAD should be 
set as 1.998. 

 

To set above parameters,

 

proceed as follows: 

 

Once in Programming mode,   
 

1.  Set Arrow (>) to the desired parameters using       and       keys and press      key. Now 

Arrow (>) starts blinking which means value of this parameter can be set now. Set desired 
value by using         and          keys and again press        key to save its value.
