5.5.2 Setting Format Options
The
Format
page is displayed by clicking on the
Format
tab.
This page allows you to defi ne the following:
Frequency:
Specifi es the line frequency (50 or 60Hz) of the measurement
inputs.
Measurement Setup:
Specifi es the measurement for each available
channel. Channels are the mathematical results of an input.
(e.g. Channel 1 = RMS of Input 1)
• Channels 1, 2 and 3 are fi xed and cannot be changed. They
represent the RMS of the corresponding input.
• Channels 5 through 8 can be set to one of the available
functions. To confi gure one of these channels, select the desired
channel and select the desired function. Depending on the
function selected you will have additional options to specify.
Figure 5-27
Here you specify which channel is to correspond to A and which channel
is to correspond to B. The channels available will be those with a number
less than the current channels index. For example, when specifying chan-
nel 5 you can select from channel 1 through 3. When specifying channel 6
you can select from 1, 2, 3 and 5.
Figure 5-27 illustrates the confi guration for a three input Sentinel
™
. This is
why channel 4 is omitted. If your Sentinel
™
has a fourth input then channel
4 would be displayed as Input4.
