Alarm Conditions and Alarm Numbers
This section lists the power meter’s predefined alarm conditions. For each alarm condition,
the following information is provided.
• Alarm No.—a position number indicating where an alarm falls in the list.
• Alarm Description—a brief description of the alarm condition
• Abbreviated Display Name—an abbreviated name that describes the alarm condition,
but is limited to 15 characters that fit in the window of the power meter’s display.
• Test Register—the register number that contains the value (where applicable) that is
used as the basis for a comparison to alarm pickup and dropout settings.
• Units—the unit that applies to the pickup and dropout settings.
• Scale Group—the scale group that applies to the test register’s metering value (A–F).
For a description of scale groups, see “Scale Factors” on page 49.
• Alarm Type—a reference to a definition that provides details on the operation and
configuration of the alarm. For a description of advanced alarm types, refer to
Table 6–9.
Table 6–8 lists the preconfigured alarms by alarm number.
NOTE: Current sag and swell alarms are enabled using PowerLogic software or by setting
up custom alarms. To do this, delete any of the above default disturbance alarms, and then
create a new current sag or swell alarm (see the example under the “Advanced Alarm
Groups” on page 53.). Sag and swell alarms are available for all channels.
