Transients Setup - KPS PowerCompact3020 Manual De Usuario

6.2.10.1. Transients setup

This page allows the user to set the thresholds that the instrument will use to identify the transient event (i.e.
the instant swell or overcurrent of peak). Thus, the following parameters must be set:
Transients can be detected in 4 different modes:
SINGLE TRIGGER: only one transient (the first to occur) will be detected and displayed, but not
stored.
SINGLE TRIGGER+MEM: same as single trigger, but the transient will also be stored on the uSD
card.
AUTO TRIGGER: the instrument will detect all transients and display the last one.
AUTO TRIGGER+MEM: same as auto trigger, but all transients will also be stored on the uSD card
NOTES:
Do not set thresholds lower tan the nominal peak value of the signal, as this will result in the
continuous recording of events.
In detection modes with storage on USD, it is necessary that the date and time are set correctly. If
they are not, the PowerCompact3020 prevents the initiation of the detection, displaying the message
"Set date and time".
After setting all the parameters, select START to start the transient search. Select "Exit" to return to the
Transient Menu.
A waiting page will then appear. The instrument will stay in this state until a transient
actually occurs or the user presses
page.
channels to be measured: 3PH+N (for main channel, no matter
the connection) ó Auxiliary ( auxiliary channel)
the voltage peak threshold, over which the instrument will
identify the presence of a transient. Set "0" to disable this
transient function.
the phase current peak threshold, over which the instrument will
identify the presence of a transient. Set "0" to disable this
function.
the neutral current peak threshold. It is not present if the "Inputs"
field is set to "Auxiliary". Set "0" to disable this transient search
function.
The capturing mode.
