13 METER MENU
The METER menu allows to measure and record data. Data are presented in
different screens in table format. The available screens are:
• RMS values screen.
• Power quality screen.
• Energy screen.
• Power demand screen.
The dynamic menu options on this screen are as shown below. The different screens are
selected from the dynamic GO TO menu.
Button Function Description
Main Menu Brings up the main menu
Allows starting and stopping data recording (Pause /
Run). The Photo option allows the capture of all
instantaneous values measured by the analyzer
along with the waveforms of voltages and currents.
This PHOTO data are recorded in the SD card, in a
file with extension .PHO and the name of the active
measure. With the Reset options, the user can erase
the maximum and minimum values stored.
Allows the display to be switched between
instantaneous, maximum and minimum values. It
also gives consumed and generated values.
The user can choose to display the measured and
calculated electrical parameters (RMS) or power
quality parameters of network or energy or power
demand.
