4.8.3. INRUSH CURRENT THRESHOLDS

Pressing the
function button in the Voltage Threshold menu displays the Current Thresholds Setup menu. This defines
the inrush current thresholds. To do this, you must configure the triggering threshold and the inrush current capture stopping
threshold (triggering threshold less hysteresis).
1.
To change the inrush current triggering threshold, press the  button.
2.
Use the , ,  and  buttons to change the triggering threshold. The unit can be the A, the kA, or the mA.
3.
Press the  button, then use the ,  buttons to highlight the hysteresis in yellow.
4.
Use the , ,  and  buttons to change the hysteresis and press the  button to validate.
5.
To return to the Configuration menu, press
NOTES: Configuring the hysteresis at 100% is equivalent to not having a
Changing the thresholds in inrush current mode is not possible if the instrument is in inrush current capture mode.

4.9. TREND MODE

Selecting
Trend Mode in the Configuration menu displays the Trend Mode menu. This lets you select the measured and
calculated values (Urms, Vrms, Arms, etc.) to include in recordings (

To select the parameter to be recorded, move the yellow cursor to the parameter using the , ,  and  buttons, then validate with
the  button. The selected parameter is identified by a red dot. The frequency (Hz) is always selected (black spot).
NOTE: Quantities displayed in red are incompatible with the configuration chosen (connection selected, sensors
connected, ratios programmed, reference of the level of harmonics of the phases, breakdown of the non-active quantities).
For example, if no current sensor is connected; all current quantities will be in red.
