4 Functions and settings Functions and settings This chapter gives a short summary of all important func- tions and possible settings of the voltage regulator. For details, see the voltage regulator's operating instructions. Before carrying out the parameterization, proceed as fol- lows: If necessary, press at the same time to...
4 Functions and settings > Configuration > General. ð Language Press to select the required language. Press ð The language is set. NORMset NORMset mode is used for quickly starting voltage regu- lation. In NORMset mode, the bandwidth and delay time parameters are automatically adapted to the require- ments of the grid.
Page 17
4 Functions and settings A manual tap-change operation is required to activate NORMset. This is how the voltage regulator determines the bandwidth required. If the transformer is switched off, another manual tap- change operation is required. Proceed as follows to activate/deactivate NORMset mode: >...

4 Functions and settings Press ð The primary voltage is set. Setting the secondary voltage With this parameter, you can set the voltage transform- er's secondary voltage. Proceed as follows to set the secondary voltage: > NORMset > Press until the desired parameter is displayed.
4 Functions and settings Settings in kV are only possible if you have previously entered the parameters for primary and secondary volt- age. Proceed as follows to set the desired value: > NORMset > Press until the desired parameter is displayed. Desired value 1.

4 Functions and settings Proceed as follows to select a desired value: > Control parameter > Voltage regula- tion > Press until the desired parameter is dis- played. ð Active Desired Volt. Level Press to select an active desired value. Press The selected desired value is active.
4 Functions and settings Press ð The delay time T1 is set. 4.3.4 Setting control response T1 You can set the control response as linear or integral. Linear Device responds with a constant delay time which is in- dependent of the control deviation. Integral Device responds with a variable delay time which is de- pendent on the control deviation.
4 Functions and settings 4.3.5 Setting delay time T2 With this parameter, you can set delay time T2. Delay time T2 is used to compensate for large control devia- tions faster. Proceed as follows to set the delay time T2: >...
