e. Outlet Status: The Outlet Status is displayed below the Connection Status. The current state of the

outlets is displayed (either On or Off), and pressing the On/Off button will manually turn the output

On and Off. When connected to the MULTIPAK during an abnormal voltage condition (power

outage, under voltage, or over voltage), wiring fault (Reverse Polarity [Live/Neutral reversed], or

Missing Ground), the On/Off outlet control is not available, and the corresponding abnormal

voltage/wiring fault condition will be displayed beside the outlet status. *A ground connection may be

made through the computer connection. It is recommended to determine the outlet wiring status with

the MULTIPAK before connecting the MULTIPAK Data Interface Cable, or to use a laptop computer

with its charger disconnected.

f. Recorded Data Display: The lower portion of the screen is a display of the data recorded and stored

in the MULTIPAK’s internal memory. Power quality event totals are listed in the “XG Memory Totals”

table. The events are listed in the “XG Time Stamps” table in order of occurrence (with the most

recent events at the top) with their corresponding estimated date and time of occurrence. The

events are also graphically displayed on the “Power Quality Events By Estimated Date / Time” graph

in order of occurrence by estimated date and time (the MULTIPAK does not currently record the

duration of a power outage event). If additional power quality events are recorded while connected

to the MULTIPAK, the data display will automatically update with the new information. The

MULTIPAK Microcontroller can record up to 999 occurrences of each of the following:

i. Over Voltage Events

ii. Under Voltage Events

iii. Power Outage Events

iv.

Surge Events

g. Timestamps: In addition to the Recorded Data events, the MULTIPAK microcontroller also

timestamps up to 60 recorded events.

i. The timestamp is a record of the elapsed time (up to 99 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes,

and 59 seconds) since the last recorded event – this is the time difference between

subsequent events, not the elapsed time from an initial starting point. Please note: The

amount of elapsed time during power outages is not recorded.

ii. The MULTIPAK Diagnostic Software estimates the actual date and time of each event

occurrence based on the recorded time difference between events, and the current

date and time of the connected computer.

iii. The graph uses the values of 0%, 50%, 150%, and 600% for the graphical display of

power outages, under voltages, over voltages, and surge events, respectively. The

actual voltages during these events are not recorded and probably differ from the

graphical values (0%, 50%, 150%, and 600%) shown.
