Inverse delay
The inverse delay is based on the following equation.

The operation time in this example will be five minutes.
More stages (definite time delay only)
If more than one definite time delay stages are needed for
current unbalance protection, the freely programmable stages
can be used (chapter 2.21).
Setting groups
There are two settings groups available. Switching between
setting groups can be controlled by digital inputs, virtual
inputs (communication, logic) and manually.
