Changing the Parameters that are Logged

The meter's factory configuration logs a comprehensive set of energy, power and
harmonics parameters. You cannot change which parameters are logged by
configuring a setup register. If you are comfortable editing module links, you can
change the logged parameters by linking the output registers you want logged to
the inputs of an Data Recorder module.

Adding or deleting a log's parameters is an advanced procedure, as it requires changes to the links
between modules; use Designer (refer to the Designer section of the online
Setup.
