The EM720 has an embedded logical controller that runs
different actions in response to user-defined internal and
external events. Unlike a PLC, the EM720 uses a simplified
programming technique based on setpoints that allows the
user to define a logical expression based on measured
analog and digital values that produces a required action.
The EM720
programmable operate and release delays. Each setpoint
evaluates a logical expression with up to four arguments
using OR/AND logic. Whenever an expression is evaluated
as "true", the setpoint performs up to four concurrent
actions that can send a command to the output relays,
increment or decrement a counter, or trigger a recorder.
To program the setpoints, select General Setup from the
Meter Setup menu, and then click on the Control/Alarm
Setpoints tab.
The available setpoint options are described in the
following table:
