7.- OPERATION MODE 

 

Before connecting the analyzer to a single-phase power system in order to 

record data or to transfer data to a P.C. check the “Hold/Run” switch to be at the right 
position. 

The position of this switch is only considered when powering up the 

analyzer.

 No later modification of the switch position will be effective once the 

analyzer is already running. 
 
 

It is advisable to observe the “Hold / Run” led to check that the analyzer is at 

the right operation mode according to our requirements (See section 6.2.-)  
 

The position of this switch is only considered when powering 

up the analyzer. 

 

7.1.- Communications 
 

Setup procedure and data retrieval can only be performed through the RS-232 

serial port in the CAVA; therefore, the configuration of the serial port of the PC and 
the CAVA must entirely coincide. 

 
The default configuration of the CAVA serial port is: 

 
Peripheral  : 00    

 

Communication parameters:  9.600 / 7 / N / 1 

 

The CAVA only permits to modify the baud rate. Available baud rates are: 2400, 

4800, 9600 & 19200 bauds 
 

When setting the data management software for the CAVA in the PC, the serial 

port used to communicate to the CAVA (Com 1, Com 2) must be correctly defined. 
The software will automatically check at different baud rates whether a CAVA is 
connected to the set port.
