1.3 Acquiring Data (Voltage and Current Signals) Measurement Range of Voltage, Current, and Power «For procedures, see section 5.3.» When directly inputting voltage or current signals to the input module, there are two types of measurement ranges : fixed range and auto range. When displaying the waveform, the measurement range corresponds to the vertical display range.
1.3 Acquiring Data (Voltage and Current Signals) When inputting voltage or current signals via an external PT or CT The output from the secondary side of the potential transformer can be connected to the same voltage input terminal used for direct input and the output of the secondary side of the current transformer can be connected to the same current input terminal used for direct input.
Page 31
1.3 Acquiring Data (Voltage and Current Signals) Observation Time «For procedures, see section 6.1.» The observation time represents the time span of one screen. During normal measurement mode The selectable range is from 10 µs to 1 ks*. The sampling rate changes depending on the observation time.
Page 32
1.3 Acquiring Data (Voltage and Current Signals) Dividing the record length «For procedures, see section 6.2.» The acquisition memory can be divided in half so that it appears as though there are two memories. The data can be acquired to each memory separately. When there is only one acquisition memory (the acquisition memory is not divided) and the data acquisition is aborted, the sampled data are discarded.
Page 33
1.3 Acquiring Data (Voltage and Current Signals) Zero Level Compensation «For procedures, see section 4.4.» Zero level compensation refers to the operation of adjusting the level to zero using an internal circuit of the instrument.

1.4 Trigger Trigger Position «For procedures, see section 7.5.» The trigger position is used to set which section of the sampled data in the acquisition memory to display on the screen. When the trigger delay (described in the next section) is set to 0 s, the trigger point and trigger position match.
Numerical Display The numerical data can be displayed. The display format varies depending on whether the measurement mode is set to normal measurement or harmonic measurement. In addition, the screen can be divided into top and bottom halves so that the numerical data and waveform can be displayed at the same time.

Signals from revolution sensors and torque meters can be input to channels 7 and 8 of the PZ4000. For revolution sensors, the signal is the DC voltage (analog signal) or the pulse count that are proportional to the rotating speed of the motor. For torque meters, it is the DC voltage (analog signal) that is proportional to the torque of the motor.

Page 410
Appendix 7 Power Basics (Power/Harmonics/Three Constants Related to the AC Circuit) Harmonics Harmonics are sine waves that have frequencies that are integer multiples of the frequency of a fundamental signal (generally a 50/60-Hz sinusoid in the field of power). The current power that flows through the power rectification circuit, phase control circuit, and other circuits that are used in various electrical devices, generates harmonic voltages and currents on the power line.

Appendix 7 Power Basics (Power/Harmonics/Three Constants Related to the AC Circuit) Interference caused by harmonic signals Harmonic signals adversely affect electric devices and facilities. The following are some examples. • Phase advance capacitor or series reactor The reduction of circuit impedance caused by the harmonic current causes excessive current to flow resulting in vibration, humming, overheating, and burnouts.
