2. Select the
Configure monitor
ing
option.
The configuration window will open with 5 tabs:
• Monitoring
• Slow variations thresholds
• Interruptions and Rapid Voltage Changes (RVC)
• Voltage Dips and Swells
• Transients
3. In the
Monitoring
tab, indicate the nominal voltage, the frequency, and the
name of the file that will contain the monitoring recording.
4. In the
Slow Variations Thresholds
tab, the maximum variations of the
frequency and the voltages are already specified for one week and the
duration of the monitoring recording, per the standard. You can modify the
values or add quantities to monitor.
5. In the
Interruptions and Rapid Voltage changes (RVC)
tab, keep
the preset values or modify them. The values specify the duration of
interruptions and rapid voltage changes (RVC), which are slower than
transients.
6. In the
Voltage Dips and Swells
tab, modify or keep the preset values that
specify the levels and durations of the voltage dips and swells.
The
Transients
tab is used to configure a search for transients (see § 3.4.5).
