6.12.4 Record Structure
All the records of the same file must have the same size and the same structure.
The only exception is represented by the 0 record, which can have different dimension and structure from
the successive records (from 1 to 9999).
6.13 Average and peak Energy
While the X3M was designed to measure energy consumption (the so called import mode), it can be
configured to work in import/export mode. When in import mode, the device automatically compensates
wiring errors on CTs (e.g. for current flow). On the other hand, when in import/export mode, all the energy,
average and peak counters are open for measures in the four quadrants.
6.14 Tariff Time Bands
It is possible to store, inside the instrument, a calendar file which organizes the consume according to
different tariff bands. The tariff scheme can present different values during the day and the day scheme
can present different formats during the year.
It is possible to have a maximum of 8 tariffs with max 24 tariff changes a day.
Thanks to its internal clock, the instrument can divide the energy consumes on 8 different tariff counters
(range) which are stored inside the data memory
The peak values are memorized in the same way (Max Demand) for each tariff on another memory file.
