only one input may be automatically captured. Choose Waveform Capture Channel X where X represents an integer between 1 and 8. Following are the Channel assignments for Wye and Delta systems.

11.Press the Download key. This will transmit the values entered into the Setpoints tabular screen for the selected setpoint number to the device. After several seconds press the Refresh button and scroll to the selected setpoint to verify that the device has accepted the setpoint entered parameters.

12.For waveform record, open the Waveform Capture program from within the wizard. On the main screen, select the appropriate Topic or device name and click on the Record radio button. Then, under the menu Waveform>Configure>Record Depth, select a depth of either 1 event x 36 cycles, 2 events x 18 cycles, or 3 events x 12 cycles. Press OK. The Trigger, Arm, and Retrieve buttons will become inactive as the depth is downloaded to the meter. For waveform capture proceed directly to step 9.

13.Once the Trigger, Arm, & Retrieve buttons become active, press the Arm button. The Trigger, Arm, & Retrieve buttons will momentarily become inactive. When the buttons become active, the meter is now ready to record/capture a waveform when the setpoint conditions are reached.

14.Once the waveform has been automatically captured or recorded and the event has been logged, choose the appropriate Topic and function; i.e., in the main screen of the Waveform Capture program, press Retrieve.

15.View and save waveforms as desired.

16.To rearm the meter and clear the waveform data out of the device’s memory, press Arm on the main screen of the Waveform Capture program.
