computer MAX

This parameter permits the adaptation of the regulator to different options of connection of 

voltage and current measurement in the three phase system. The default assumed connection 

is the one shown in 

Figure 4

 and 

Figure 5

,

 

i.e., the current transformer placed in phase L1 and 

voltage measurement between phases L2 (terminal C) and L3 (terminal D).

Sometimes it’s difficult to guarantee this connection or even check how it is. To adapt to this 

unknown situations the 

computer MAX

 devices allow the selection of different options, T1 to 

T6, as shown in

 Table 12

.

 To select the right option during start up, you should verify that there 

is load and that the loads are mainly inductive with a cos 

j

 between 0,7 y 1. In this situation try 

the different options until the cos 

j

 screen shows a value between 0,7 and 1.

PROGRAMMING THE CT RATED CURRENT (PRIMARY)�

The set-up of this parameter can be selected at the bottom of the menu options. Use the 

 

keys until the bottom red LED 

 is flashing and push 

.

The display will show the assumed CT primary current. Set the value according to the CT used 

to measure installation current. The adjustment range is from 0 to 999 and with the x10 option 

allows a rated primary current up to 9990 A. By default the secondary of CT is assumed to be 

5 A.

        6.2.- SET-UP MENU AND PROCEDURE

6�2�1�- HOW TO ACCESS THE SET-UP MENU

To access the set-up menu, press the key 

 for more than 1s (This is designated as long push 

in 

Table 13

, which gives a summary of the set-up procedure). The pointer   starts blinking and 

points to the parameter to be adjusted. Select the parameter by means of the keys 

.

After the long push and in case that all the capacitor stages are disconnected, the device 

jumps to the set-up status. In case that there are some stages connected, keep the key     

pushed while the regulator disconnects the connected stages sequentially and respecting the 

programmed delay time.  Once all the stages have been disconnected the device enters the 

set-up status and allows the adjustment of the different parameters.

A schematic diagram of the set-up menu showing the different navigation paths is shown in 

Table 13�

 The meanings of the different adjustable parameters have been explained in
