Configuring Recorders
The PM174 is provided with a 1-Megabyte onboard non-
volatile memory for data, event and waveform recording.
Before using recorders, the device memory should be
partitioned between log files. The device memory is fully
configurable. You can define how much memory to allocate for
each log file. If you want to change the factory settings, follow
the guidelines in the section below.
Configuring Device Memory
The device memory can be partitioned for a total of 20 log
files:
• Event log
• 16 Data logs
• 2 Waveform logs
• IEEE 1159 Power Quality log
To view the present device memory settings, select
Memory/Log from the Meter Setup menu, and then click on the
Log Memory tab.
The following table lists available file options.
