data logger will be idle in this mode if no channels are configured. When set to “Trigger”, the data logger will begin to
record any configured channels at the instance of the rising edge of the
DATA LOGGER TRIGGER
source FlexLogic™
operand.
The data logger will ignore all subsequent triggers
and will continue to record data until the active record is
full. Once the data logger is full a
CLEAR DATA LOGGER
command is required to clear the data logger record before a
new record can be started. Performing the
CLEAR DATA LOGGER
command will also stop the current record and reset
the data logger to be ready for the next trigger.
•
DATA LOGGER TRIGGER
: This setting selects the signal used to trigger the start of a new data logger record. Any
FlexLogic™ operand can be used as the trigger source. The
DATA LOGGER TRIGGER
setting only applies when the
mode is set to “Trigger”.
•
DATA LOGGER RATE:
This setting selects the time interval at which the actual value data will be recorded.
•
DATA LOGGER CHNL 1(16):
This setting selects the metering actual value that is to be recorded in Channel 1(16) of
the data log. The parameters available in a given relay are dependent on: the type of relay, the type and number of CT/
VT hardware modules installed, and the type and number of Analog Input hardware modules installed. Upon startup,
the relay will automatically prepare the parameter list. A list of all possible analog metering actual value parameters is
shown in Appendix A:
FlexAnalog Parameters
. The parameter index number shown in any of the tables is used to
expedite the selection of the parameter on the relay display. It can be quite time-consuming to scan through the list of
parameters via the relay keypad/display – entering this number via the relay keypad will cause the corresponding
parameter to be displayed.
•
DATA LOGGER CONFIG:
This display presents the total amount of time the Data Logger can record the channels not
selected to “Off” without over-writing old data.

DEMAND
The relay measures current demand on each phase, and three-phase demand for real, reactive, and apparent power. Cur-
rent and Power methods can be chosen separately for the convenience of the user. Settings are provided to allow the user
to emulate some common electrical utility demand measuring techniques, for statistical or control purposes. If the
CRNT
DEMAND METHOD
is set to "Block Interval" and the
DEMAND TRIGGER
is set to “Off”, Method 2 is used (see below). If
DEMAND TRIGGER
is assigned to any other FlexLogic™ operand, Method 2a is used (see below).
The relay can be set to calculate demand by any of three methods as described below:
CALCULATION METHOD 1: THERMAL EXPONENTIAL
This method emulates the action of an analog peak recording thermal demand meter. The relay measures the quantity
(RMS current, real power, reactive power, or apparent power) on each phase every second, and assumes the circuit quan-
tity remains at this value until updated by the next measurement. It calculates the 'thermal demand equivalent' based on the
following equation:
(EQ 5.6)
where:
d
= demand value after applying input quantity for time
t
(in minutes)
D
= input quantity (constant), and
k
= 2.3 / thermal 90% response time.
