The common distance settings described earlier must be properly chosen for correct operation of the phase distance ele-
ments. Additional details may be found in chapter 8: Theory of operation.

PHS DIST Z1 DIR: All phase distance zones are reversible. The forward direction is defined by the
setting, whereas the reverse direction is shifted 180° from that angle. The non-directional zone spans between the for-
ward reach impedance defined by the

PHS DIST Z1 SHAPE: This setting selects the shape of the phase distance function between the mho and quadrilat-
eral characteristics. The selection is available on a per-zone basis. The two characteristics and their possible varia-
tions are shown in the following figures.
