Using The Logger; Logging Jobs - Fluke 1743-BASIC User Manual

Using the Logger

This section explains how to operate the 1744/1743 Power Quality Logger.
A typical logging session includes four steps:
1. Preparing the Logger for use with the PQ Log software.
2. Installing the Logger at the logging site.
3. Leaving the Logger to collect data for a period.
4. Downloading and evaluating the logged data.
These steps are described in the following pages.

Logging Jobs

Logging jobs are defined using the PQ Log software, and transferred to the
Logger over the RS232 cable. Each job contains the following information:
Logging function (P for Model 1743, and P or A for Model 1744)
Measuring period, defined by start and end times
Time activated, switch or immediate job
Input range
Nominal voltage, primary and secondary voltage for logging with
voltage converters
Logging of phase-neutral wire or phase-phase
Memory model
Averaging period length
Logging time periods
Interharmonics and signaling voltages
Limit values for events
Memory model for events: circular (first-in/first-out, continuous), or
linear (quit logging when logging period is finished)
Logging of current-neutral wire
Converter ratios for current and voltage if using potential transformers
(PTs) and current transformers (CTs) at a medium-voltage network
