PowerSmart Socket Power Quality Meter
Using Periodic Timers
The PowerSmart Socket PQM has 4 programmable interval
timers that are normally used for periodic recording and
triggering operations on a time basis through the Control
Setpoints.
Whenever a programmed timer interval is expired, the timer
generates an internal event that can trigger any setpoint (see
Using Control Setpoints
). The programmable time interval
can be from 1 cycle and up to 24 hours. Though it is defined
in 0.001-second units, the actual value will be rounded in the
meter to a nearest bigger 1/2 cycle multiple.
To configure interval timers, select General Setup from the
Meter Setup menu, and then click on the Periodic Timers tab.
To run a periodic timer, specify a non-zero time period.
To stop a timer, set the time period to zero.
