Manyof the alarm conditions require that youdefine setpoints. This includes
all alarms forover, under, and phase unbalancealarm conditions. Other
alarm conditionssuch as digital input transitions and phase reversalsdo not
requiresetpoints. For those alarm conditions thatrequire setpoints, you must
define thefollowing information:
•Pickup Setpoint
•Pickup Delay(depending on the alarm group, you choose the time in
seconds,100 ms increments, or cycles)
•Dropout Setpoint
•Dropout Delay(depending on the alarm group, you choose the time in
seconds,100 ms increments, or cycles)
NOTE: Alarms withboth Pickup and Dropout setpoints set to zero are invalid.Tounderstand how the circuit monitor handles setpoint-drivenalarms, see
Figure 6–2 on page86. Figure 6–1 shows what the actual alarm Log entries
for Figure6–2 might looklike, as displayed by SMS.
NOTE: The softwaredoes not actually display the codes in parentheses—EV1, EV2, Max1, Max2. These are referencesto the codes in Figure 6–2.Setpoint-DrivenAlarms
