The figures in the Meter screen are instantaneous values that update constantly. Changes in these values over time are recorded whenever the measurement is active. All values in the Meter screen are recorded, but the Trends from each row in the Meter screen are displayed one at a time. Press function key F1 to assign the arrow keys to row selection.
The traces build up from the right side. The readings in the header correspond to the most recent measurements plotted on the right.
In addition to TIMED start of energy usage measurement, the Analyzer can measure average power during an adjustable time window. Electricity suppliers often bill industrial customers upon the highest average energy usage during a specified time window. For this demand interval a period of 15 minutes is common.
For any setting besides OFF horizontal scaling of the trend is fixed so that each data point corresponds with Max, Min, and Average usage during the interval. The demand interval can be adjusted between 1 ... 60 minutes or to OFF. The adjustment menu is reached via the SETUP key and function key F3 – FUNCTION PREF. See Chapter 20, FUNCTION PREFerences. With the demand interval set to OFF the Trend functions as usual with automatic horizontal scaling.
