CHAPTER 5: OVERVIEW ACCESSING MAX/MIN VALUES

5.5Accessing Max/Min Values

Max/min values represent the highest and lowest average demand over a user programmable time period known as the Integration Interval. The readings are calculated using a rolling average technique. Each second, a new reading is used to calculate the max/min; the last reading of the interval is dropped off. The highest max during an averaging period is stored until the user resets the max/min. This is similar to amp demand meters. It is commonly referred to as Thermal Demand.

To access a max/min value while displaying a desired measurement, press MAX/MIN/ LIMITS—once for the max value; twice for the min. Examples given below are for voltage and current phases. Use the same procedure for all other parameters.
