  • Page 77: Appendix B Using Setpoints

    Appendix B Using Setpoints 9. Appendix B Using Setpoints The PM172EH has an embedded logical controller that can run different actions in response to user-defined internal and external events. Unlike a PLC, the PM172EH uses a simplified setpoint programming technique that allows the user to define a logical expression based on measured analog and digital values that will produce a required action.
  • Page 78 Using Binary Triggers Binary (digital) triggers, like digital inputs, relays, or internal static and pulsed events, are tested for ON (closed/set) or OFF (open/cleared) status. The binary events are divided into two types: static events and pulsed events. Static events are level-sensitive events. A static event is asserted all the time while the corresponding condition exists.
  • Page 79 Using Time Triggers If you want the setpoint actions to be synchronized with the clock, for example, to provide synchronous recording interval data every 15 minutes or each hour, or to output time pulses through relay contacts, use the time triggers that generate static events synchronized to the device clock.
  • Page 80 Up to four programmable actions can be performed in sequence on setpoint status transition when a setpoint event is asserted. Generally, setpoint actions are performed independently for each setpoint and can be repeated a number of times for the same target. The exceptions are relay operations, data logging and waveform logging that are shared for each separate target between all setpoints using an OR scheme.

  • Page 81: Appendix C Configuring Tou

    Appendix C Configuring TOU 10. Appendix C Configuring TOU The PM172EH provides 7 TOU energy and 3 TOU maximum demand registers that can be linked to any internal energy source or to any external pulse source that delivers energy pulses through the device digital inputs.

    Appendix D Event and Data Logging 11. Appendix D Event and Data Logging The PM172EH has a 0.5-Megabyte onboard non-volatile memory for data, event and waveform recording. Before using event and data recorders, the PM172EH memory should be partitioned between log files. The device memory is fully configurable. The user defines how much memory to allocate for each log file.
  • Page 84 Option Range Description Record size Shows the size of the file record for a single channel or section. It is set automatically depending on the file and on the number of parameters in the data record Parameters Defines the number of parameters in a single data record for data log files.
  • Page 85 The data recorder can record up to 16 data parameters per record in each of 8 data log files. The list of parameters is configured individually for each data log file. Before configuring data log parameters in your device, you should allocate memory for the data log and specify how many parameters each record will contain.
  • Page 86 Setpoint #1 is preset at the factory to trigger Data Logs #1 and #2 in 15 min intervals. TOU Energy/Demand Profile Recording Data Log #7 and Data Log #8 can be configured to store a TOU monthly profile log and a TOU daily profile log respectively. A TOU profile log file is organized as a multi-section file that has a separate section for each TOU energy and maximum demand register.

    Appendix E Power Quality Setup 12. Appendix D Event and Data Logging The PM172EH can provide detection and registration of power quality events such as: • Voltage dips and interruptions • Voltage swells and overvoltages • Frequency variations • Voltage harmonic distortion The following table gives an example of programming setpoints for detection and recording power quality events.
  • Page 88 Fast transient voltages will trigger the Waveform Recorder to log voltage and current waveforms at the time of the event. Note that the recorded voltage waveforms will represent line-to-neutral voltages in all wiring modes except of Open Delta where they will be line-to-line voltages. The voltage disturbance threshold is defined in percent of the line-to-neutral or line-to-line nominal voltage respectively.
