Power Quality Analyzer Model 3945-B
- Select a recording storage rate using the
buttons.
NOTE:
The possible storage rates are 1, 5 or 20 sec; 1, 2, 5, 10 or
15 min.
- Enter the record name with the
buttons, which scroll through the
alphabet and numbers. Up to 7 characters may be entered.
- Save the changes with the button.
NOTE:
The 3945-B will calculate the storage needs of the recording,
and if necessary, will display the message “Not enough memory”.
If the recording is scheduled, the PowerPad
®
will display “Recording on Standby”.
If it doesn’t accept any of the parameters, it will instead move the cursor to the field
it doesn’t accept. After changing the parameter, press enter again.
Parameters not accepted could include the start time being before the present
time. If the period (storage rate) is more than 1 minute, the start time must be a
multiple of the storage rate (e.g. if there is a 10 minute storage rate, the recording
start time could not be 4:09, but should instead be 4:00 or 4:10). The duration must
also be a multiple of the storage rate.
The setup config number must have at least 1 parameter selected to record. The
recording name cannot be blank. There must be enough memory.
TIP:
It may be wise to do a very short sample program
to be sure everything is set correctly. For example,
choose a 10 minute recording session called “test 1”
and evaluate results.
TIP:
Make sure to leave the PowerPad
®
on until the
recording is completed and check that there is AC
power or enough time left on the battery.
