6BSAGS, SWELLS AND INTERRUPTIONS
3. SAGS, SWELLS AND INTERRUPTIONS

The analysis fulfils the IEC 61000-4-30 standards for the sag, swell and interruption analyses and results.
3.1 SAGS AND SWELLS

The PQM register analyses the sags and swells of the simple and/or compound voltages, classifying them in 2-input tables
and event chronological lists (detailed and summary). The parameters defining these analyses are the depth of the sag or
swell and the time this event lasts.
The depth is calculated according to rated voltage:
Depth % =
Un Uhs
100
Un
(3.1 equation)
where:
Un simple and/or compound nominal voltage (setting)

Uhs phase maximum simple and/or compound voltage in situation of sag or swell.
The analysis is carried out independently for each channel. The refreshed measurement of a cycle is used every half cycle, so
that we have an updated measurement every half cycle.
Sag is considered to occur when the sag threshold is exceeded in any of the three simple and/or compound voltages,
depending on the selected unit. The sag is considered to be over, when none of the three voltages is in situation of gap
(exceeding in the hysteresis the setting threshold). The duration is considered from the very moment the first channel enters
the sag until all of them return to normality. The sag width is the highest depth (minimum voltage) of all the channels in
swell.
Swell is considered to occur when the swell threshold is exceeded in any of the three simple and/or compound voltages,
depending on the unit wiring procedure. The overvoltage is considered to be over when none of the three voltages is already
in overvoltage situation (exceeding in the hysteresis the setting threshold). The swell duration is considered to be from the
very moment the first channel enters in swell until all of them return to normality. The swell width is the highest depth
(maximum voltage) of all the channels in swell.
In the event summary queue, the sags and swells are stored, grouped according to the criteria previously described. The data
of each phase is located in the event queue in an individual way.
The measurement precision is 0.2% of the nominal voltage. The duration precision is cycle of the signal at the beginning
plus another cycle at the end.
The hysteresis can be programmed. For example for a 2% hysteresis, if sag is considered to be a drop higher than the 10%,
the voltage measured must be over the 8%, in order to consider it has recovered.
The parameters used for the gap and swell detection are the following ones:
Sag threshold. Minimum variation respecting to the nominal voltage to consider sag.
Sag hysteresis. Minimum variation to recover from the sag.
Swell threshold. Minimum variation respecting to the nominal voltage to consider swell.
Swell hysteresis. Minimum variation to recover from the swell.
Minimum separation between events in order to be considered the same event or a new one.
There are also other parameters, used for signalling sags and swells which are those below:
Sensitivity for sag. Variation to consider the new step inside the sag (increase and decrease events).

PQM300T User Manual
19

Sensitivity for swell. Variation to consider the new step inside the swell (increase and decrease events).
Maximum number of notes per event. It restricts the number of notes registered in each sag and swell. It only affects
to those of increase and decrease notes.
Sag maximum time . Maximum time since the sag start, during which the sag pulse signal is kept active. Once this
time is elapsed, the pulse signal is deactivated, although the sag continues and no more notes are done in that sag. If
the time is set to 0, it is the same as if this option would be deactivated, so the sag end is not restricted in a time
and the sag pulse signal coincides with the sag one.
Swell maximum time. Maximum time since the swell start, during which the swell pulse signal is kept active. Once
this time is elapsed, the pulse signal is deactivated, although the swell continues and no more notes are done in that
swell. If the time is set to 0, it is the same as if this option would be deactivated, so the sag end is not restricted in a
time and the sag pulse signal coincides with the one of the sag.
For example, having the nominal voltage set to 80V, if considering a sag starts from 72V on, the sag threshold must be set in
10%. It is deduced from 3.1 equation:
Sag _ threshold % =
80 72
100
80
In the same way, if considering the swell starts from 88V on, the swell threshold must be set in 10%.

Figure 6. Event summary
3.1.2 Event chronological noting

The event representation is done through the chronological annotation and through their phases (simple and/or
compound). For simple voltages, the channel is defined through Va, Vb or Vc; meanwhile for the compound ones by
Vab, Vbc, Vca.
It has a queue with 16000 annotations. The number of events stored depends on the annotation done for each of
them. By setting, the maximum number of annotations by each events can be limited. These data can be accessed
from the Register menu with the option Bring events or from the tool bar with the Event button.
Together with this annotation, it is shown a graphic with the voltage wave shape during the event. This graphic detail
depends on the annotations taken for every event. The graphic has the autoscalar, manual scalar and zoom properties.
Every event will dispose the following annotations
Normal before: It is characterised with a N and it has the dated value of the depth and the phase primary
voltage 200msec before the considered event happens.
Sag or swell: It is characterised with a L (sag) or a H (swell), and it has the dated value of the depth and
the phase primary voltage in the very moment the event beginning is detected.
Back to normal: It is characterised with a V it has the dated value of the depth and the phase primary voltage
in the very moment the event end is detected.
Normal After: It is characterised with a n and it has the dated value of the depth and the phase primary
voltage 200 msec after the considered event finishes.
Increase: It is characterised with a I and it has the dated value of the depth and the phase primary voltage
while the event lasts. It refers to the increases of the voltage value, and so to a reduction of the event depth.
Decrease: It is characterised with a D and it has the dated value of the depth and the phase primary voltage
while the event lasts. It refers to the decrease of the voltage value, and so to a un increase of the event depth.
Overvoltage maximum: It is characterised with a M and it has the overvoltage maximum value reaches and
the data in which it has occurred.

PQM300T User Manual
21

Sag minimum: It is characterised with a m and it has the sag minimum value reached and the data in which
it has occurred.
Sag/swell average: It is characterised with a A and it has the voltage average value during the sag or swell.
The data corresponds to the average data between the beginning and end of the events.
Sag/swell pulse time expired: It is characterised with a E. In case the pulse duration maximum time is
configured, it occurs when the time since the sag or swell starts is elapsed.
Summary: It has the depth maximum values, the corresponding primary voltage and the duration of this event.
Figure 7. Event representation
As it is shown in Figure 7, the event list offers information about the following:
The type of event (sag: LOW; swell: HIGH).
Channel in which the event has occurred.
Event data and time.
Event depth in %

3.1.3 Depth-duration tables

Independent depth-duration double input tables for sags and swells. The table has a one-year duration. The register
can store 15 sag tables and 15 swell tables. These data can be accessed from the Register menu with the option
Bring tables.
A table is considered to be finished and a new one is started in the following examples:

Users order (command)
A year has elapsed since it started.
In order the register to start treating a sag or an overvoltage with the aim of storing in the corresponding position in
the table, the sag or overvoltage threshold must have been exceeded in depth. When none of the three phases is
already in event situation (exceeding the set threshold in the hysteresis) the unit measures its time. This time
comprises from the moment the first phase enters the event until the last of the faults leaves the event. This time is
noted in the cell defined by that duration and by the maximum depth given during the time in which the event has
existed.
These tables allow seeing, in a global way, the data collected in the Event Summaries queue.

The maximum time THD indicates the time from the starting of the THD, during which the THD pulse signal remains active;
when this time ends, the pulse signal is deactivated although the THD keeps on. If the time is set to 0, it is the same as
having the option disabled, so that the THD is not limit in a time and the THD pulse signal matches with the THD signal.
The THD overexcitation activation generates control digital signals and it acts over the programmed digital outputs.
The events generated are the following ones:

5.1.1 Power calculation

The powers of each phase are calculated in the following way:

Pi = Re{Vi I i )

Qi = Im{Vi I i )
S i = Vi I i
(being i each of the phases A, B and C).
and the total powers:
PT = PA + PB + PC
QT = Q A + QB + QC
ST = S A + S B + SC
The power calculation for the compound voltages setting Vc, is carried out by assuming that the sum of phase
currents is null.

5.2.1 Historical
The storage is carried of the average of the measurements calculated within a determined periodicity out in a circular
queue. Both the measurements to be stored and the storage periodicity can be programmed by the user.
These data are stored in the PC where they are accumulated to the data previously captured, so data corresponding to
a long period are available. These data are presented as a list and in a graphic format, allowing different analysis
types to be carried out on them in the PC without being connected to the register.
The historical carried out are the following ones:
Voltage and current historical.
Power historical
Harmonic historical
The different historical can be individually enabled, selected which measurements are going to be sent and its
integration period.
The total number of measurement stored is fixed, so depending on the storage period and the number of
measurement selected the time will be longer or shorter.
At least, the historical values corresponding to a month, taken every hour, are stored; that is, 744 registers. If
changing the sampling period, the total time stored also changes.
When the historical configuration is changed, those previously stored in the register are lost, so if they are desired to
be kept, before changing the configuration, they have to be requested and stored in the PC.
Each historical can be deleted via command:
Delete V-I historical. Command 111
Delete power historical. Command 112
Delete harmonic historical. Command 113
The historical are also deleted when deleting all the memory (command 110), which deletes not only the historical,
but also all the data stored in the memory.
The historical display can be carried out as a list, where the data and the value are indicated (Figure 9), or in a
graphic way, where apart from the time evolution, each point value can be seen (Figure 10). This representation is
valid for the different historical types.
The access to the historical is from Register menu with the option Bring historical or from the tool bar with the
Historical pushbutton. The available data are the following:

5.2.2 Statistical
The storage of statistical data (maximum, minimum and mean), calculated within a determined periodicity is carried
out in a circular queue. Both the measurements and the storage periodicity can be programmed by the user.
Additionally, the statistical are calculated with a 1-day, 1-week, 1-month and 1-year periodicity that cannot be
programmed by the user.
These data are stored in the PC where they are accumulated to the data previously captured, so data corresponding to
a long period are available. These data are presented as a list, where the date and the registered values are indicated
( Figure 13), allowing these data analysis in the PC without being connected to the register.
The statisticals to be calculated are the following ones:
Voltage and current statisticals.
Power statisticals
Harmonic statisticals
The statisticals can be individually enabled, the measurements to be sent and the integration period can be selected.
The following statistical data will be stored in the register:
annual: 1 register
monthly 12 registers (1 year)
weekly: 54 registers (1 year)
daily: 31 days (1 month)
time schedule: 744 registers are stored, corresponding to the values of one month taken every hour. If
changing the sampling period, the total time stored also changes.
When the statistical configuration is changed, those previously stored in the register are lost, so if they are desired to
be kept, before changing the configuration, they have to be requested and stored in the PC.
The access to the historical is from Register menu with the option Bring historical or from the tool bar with the
statistical pushbutton.
Each statistical can be deleted via command:

6. REGISTER CONFIGURATION
6.1 TIME SETTING AND SYNCHRONIZATION
6.1.1 Time setting
It can be carried through the Protection Console with the synchronization pushbutton.
6.1.2 Synchronization
There is an input for synchronization via IRIG-B demodulated. (See section IRIG-B Input inside
characteristics).
Technical
The time code IRIG-B is a mesh generated once a second. The code used is B 003, in which the mesh is constituted
by a pulse train with TTL of variable widths. The time shown corresponds to the PPS (pulse per second) coinciding
with the Mesh Reference Mark of the beginning of the mesh. There are two options.
Format B002: The year is not sent in the message.
Format B002 with IEEE 1344: The year is sent in the message.
In Integrated Control Systems (SIPC) the register is periodically synchronised (every minute) by the UCS.
In this case, it is useless to change the time in the Protection Console, because it will be deleted by the UCS.

6.4 PROGRAMMING LOGIC OUTPUTS

The user can configure up to 15 logic outputs, called logic 1 to logic 15, which can be assigned to relays, as web as to
LEDs, locking inputs, signals to be registered on the disturbance recorder, etc.
The programming of the logic outputs can be only done through the Protections console, from the basic available signals,
consigned in the Table 4 (only the functions that the model contains correspond. to each model). The programming
procedure is described in other document: the Protections console manual.
The logic signals are generated according to the following scheme:
As it can be observed in the definition of a logic output the following elements are involved:
Up to 16 signals among the available ones (or their negated ones), forming an OR function
Up to 16 signals among the available ones (or their negated ones), forming an AND function
an OR or AND function (programmable) of two previous functions results
a programmable time delay ("delay") to activate the output

PQM300T User Manual
40
a programmable time for the duration of the output activation
The delay time is the time length since there is a logic 1 at the output of the logic ports until the corresponding logic output
is activated. If during this time the 1 disappeared, the output could not be activated. It can be programmed between 0
and 99.9 s, with steps of 0.1 s.
The pulse time (duration) is the time during which the logic signal remains active. Its programming allows two options:
"By logic": after the delay, the output is active as long as there is a 1 at the programmed logic output
"By time": the time during which the output is active is programmed, so that once expired the output is deactivated,
independently from the state of the programmed logic output. Only a new step from 0 to 1 will activate the output
again, after the delay. The time range goes from 0.1 s to 99.9 s, with steps of 0.1 s.
A logic output "i" can be used as available signal for programming input of other logic signal "j" or of itself.

APPENDIX I.
KEYBOARD / DISPLAY
It may optionally dispose of a display (2 lines and 16 characters) and a keyboard with 16 keys.
The keyboard/display units aim is displaying the states of the digital inputs, measurements and date. The display language can
be configured and the date can be changed.
On standby, the display shows PQM300-T and the software version it has.
At any moment of the procedure described below, by pushing ESCAPE the unit moves to the menu element of the immediately
previous level.
The menus are scrolled downwards or upwards with the pushbuttons and , and they are circular, that is, after the last
position it goes to the first one again.
In general terms, when a menu is scrolled, the first line of the display indicates the active function, which can be entered by
pushing INTRO. That way, we enter the following menu level (if there was) specific for that function.
The menu tree to display or change settings inside a each group is hierarchical. If on standby (title), we push INTRO, we reach
the following menu:

CHANGE SETPOINTS
I.1. USE OF THE KEYBOARD/DISPLAY

I.1.1 See settings and magnitudes
With the keys and it is possible to move around each menu or submenu (indicated in the previous section)
upwards or downwards, since the menu are circular.
By pushing INTRO the following menu level is reached. If it did not have a submenu it would not change its state
when pushing INTRO.
By pushing ESC the element of the previous menu is reached, that is, the one from which can reach the present
status..
In the final menus, those with no submenus (settings), the name of the setting group, selected by means of keyboard,
appear on the first row, and on the second row its present value.
I.1.2 Change settings

Up to the last level of the menus everything works in the same way as in See settings and magnitudes (same
functions for same keys).
To access to this function, it is necessary to press the key "". Through this all settings and initializations are
made accessible, except the ones contained in the section "Define protection. To access these the key "" is
necessary
In the last level of the menus, where the name of the settings we want to change appear, the keyboard operation is
different from the one we have explained until now.

PQM300T User Manual
44
When entering into each group to change the settings, which are included (final menu), the keyboard operation will
be as it follows:
1) Numerical settings. The first line of the display shows the name of the selected setting followed by its current
value. The line 2 shows the text NEW followed by the current setting range, which can be changed by using the
numerical keyboard.
To change the setting range we use the numerical keyboard. The new range has to be literally entered, this means
that if we wish to enter the new value of 23 the key 2 will have to be pressed, and followed by the key 3. If the value
is not valid, when pushing INTRO to access to the next setting, a warning message will be shown on the line 2
indicating INVALID VALUE. A valid value will have to be entered to be able to access the next setting within the
group, by pressing INTRO. The pressing of ESC within the final menu takes us to the menu element, which we
came from, without making effective the changes we have made until the moment of pressing.
The changes are made effective when at the moment of reaching the last group setting and pressing INTRO, we
receive the message VALIDATE SETTINGS and press INTRO to validate the changes; if we validate them by
pressing INTRO, we would return to the next element of the menu above (see menus chart). By pressing ESC we
return to the menu element from which we reached the actual state.
2) Non numerical settings. There are settings, such as language, that offer some possibilities to choose, because it is
clearer to selct them by their name instead of entering its numerical value.
Whenever possible and clear, on the line 1 the name of the setting will appear along with a text indicating the actual
value. On the second line it will gradually appear the possible values to choose for this setting, if we use the keyboard
properly. We use the key to go through the different possibilities we have on each state. In the case of inputs,
outputs or leds configuration we can use the keys and to select the configuration of each of them; we do it
this way because there are many configurations to choose from and this makes it quicker.
As for the numerical settings, by pushing INTRO, we move to the following setting until reaching the last one of the
group, in which we have to valuate by pushing INTRO. The pressing of ESC takes us to the menu element from
which we reach the actual status.
I.2. MENU
Below, we enclose a table which graphically illustrates and shows the easy handling of the different menus and settings
which can be changed with the keyboard/display. We recommend this appendix be at hand when you start to use the
keyboard, in order to easily find the settings to be changed.

APPENDIX II.
RECEPTION, STORAGE, INSTALLATION AND TESTING
II.1. RECEPTION AND STORAGE

The register protections are supplied in special packing material for transport.
Upon reception, they should be checked for any signs of external damage caused during transport; if so the transport firm
and manufacturer should be contacted.
The material received should also be checked to see if it coincides with the order number.
If the register is not going to be used immediately, it should be stored in its original packaging and in a dry and dirt free
place.
The unit transport must be made in its original packaging.
II.2. WIRING PROCEDURE

The register wiring procedure should be carried out in accordance with the enclosed external connection diagram. It is a
general diagram; the programming of inputs and outputs should be taken into consideration in each specific case.
Power supply
The polarity is indifferent.
Earth connection
It is important for the earth connection to be correctly connected, in order for the protection disturbance rejection devices it
incorporates to operate properly. The connection should be as short as possible (less than 25 cm.) using multiwired cable

II.4. COMMISSIONING
The PQM300 registers are received with the default settings stipulated by the factory.
Before commissioning they must be set, with the correct values for the application, following the setting procedures.
The register has been checked at the factory in order to guarantee its accuracy in all of the setting points of the different
parameters. However, it is convenient to test some points during reception and commissioning, in order to ensure it is totally
in proper operating condition.
Once the line is connected the real measurements, the relay is carrying out can be displayed, thus enabling you to check for
proper connection and operation.

III.1. FAILURE DETECTION

The failure detection can happen in various ways.
Control signals
If the hardware status signal (see signals 128 to 133 in the section List of Available signals) are set at 1, they indicate
that anomalous situation is occurring in the register. With value at 0 it indicates Hardware OK.
Digital outputs
A digital output can be programmed with the signal HW status, which will be activated in case of critical error and
deactivated under normal operation.
Leds
The programmable Leds dispose the same options as the digital outputs.
The bicolour Led programmed as (Failure HW) indicates:
Correct functioning, if green

Critical error detection, if red
Events
The events indicate the type of error detected and they are those quoted in the first part of this chapter.
The event of corrected hardware errors indicates that the problems have been solved.

PQM300T User Manual

2BPREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
III.2. ERROR HANDLING PROCEDURE

The procedure will depend on the detected error and the register status and on the state of the register.
If the register is off, check that the power supply is correct. If the unit is well supplied, contact the technical service.
If the register is on but it shows failure, return to the events screen and check which type of error it is:
If critical error, with no specific indication, is shown and the error persists after turning the register off and on,
contact the technical service.
If converter or reference voltage error is shown. Check the measurements, and if they are correct, turn off and on the
register; if the error does not disappear, contact the technical service.
If Clock error is shown, synchronize it manually. If the error persists, contact the technical service.
If error in the Flash memory recording is shown, send the settings again. If the error persists, contact the technical
service.

3BUSER INTERFACE
APPENDIX IV. USER INTERFACE

The quality register can be monitorized through a PC. That way, both register data and its configuration can be easily accessed.
It also allows the displaying of sag and swell stored to the event queue, to the quality historical as well as to the control
measurements continuously carried out by the register and to the capture and displaying of the wave shape. Besides, it allows
programming the necessary settings for its operation.
The communication with the register can be LOCAL mode (Null Modem cable) or REMOTE (telephone call via modem).
Two options of user interface are available:
PQM Console: it operates only with the quality registers.

Sipcon Console: it allows the operation inside an integrated control system, with other units such as protections .
IV.1. PQM CONSOLE

This console operates in an autonomous way and allows the automatic control of several registers. It also allows LOCAL and
REMOTE communication, as well as working without being connected to the register. The units to be accessed through PQM
Console are set in order in Installations. Some units have to be configured in order to be able to communicate with a PQM
register. Each unit will have a directory associated, in which its configuration will be stored as well as all the data coming
from the register it is communicating with.
The basic necessary steps to use the PQM console software are the following ones:
Software installation (see IV.1.1).

Installation and Unit configuration (see IV.1.2).
Register connection and configuration (see IV.1.8.3).
Data request (see IV.1.8)
IV.1.1 Software installation

The software installation is carried out through the program Instal.exe, which, when executing, shows the following
screen:
Figure 14 Console installation.
The software installation can be carried out from any directory containing the installation files.
The default directory where the software is going to be installed is c:\PQM, but any other can be indicated. When
Start is pushed, the program creates a directory structure, where it has been indicated, uncompress the necessary
files and creates a new folder PQM Utilities (see Figure 15) in the Program submenu of the Start menu (Win95,
Win98, ...), with some inputs to get access to the PQM console programs.

PQM300T User Manual
52
3BUSER INTERFACE
If during the installation process, it is detected that any of the files that are going to be installed has already existed.
In general the current one has to be kept, because it belongs to the previous version installation and that way the
configuration operating is kept.
In order to execute this console program, get access to this PQM Utilities folder from the menu Start and select
PQM. Console.
Figure 15 PQM. Utilities folder
IV.1.2 Installation and unit configuration

By pushing Install. In the tool bar (see Figure 28) Figure 16 screen will appear where you can:
Configure: Create, modify and erase Installations and units.
Accept: Access to the Installation/Unit selected.
Figure 16. Installation and unit selection.
The installation and/or unit configuration is carried with Figure 17 screen, where independent options are
available for Installations and Units, since from each installation several units with different configurations can
be hang.

The Default parameters make reference to some parameters on application level, which will be those the
Installations have by default at the moment they are created. These parameters modification (modem and
automatic call), will affect to all the installation that have not modified them. The parameters are dragged:
Application->Installation->Unit. From the moment they are modified, in Installations or Units, they do not affect
to the upper level modifications. It is useful if the parameters are the same for most of the installations and units
(i.e. Remote connection through the same modem), allowing modifying all of them at the same time (i.e. Modem

IV.1.3 Password
There are some actions, such as change of settings, generate a new table that requires the introduction of a password.
In general, all the actions that modify data in the register need a password to carry them out, as well as a

IV.1.4 Remote communication

In case of telephone communication, the remote communication has to be previously carried out. When configuring
the Installation or the Unit, it must have been indicated that there is a modem and the telephone number that is
going to be called (see figure 22). Take into account that the communication parameters the unit is going to be
configured with, are those that will be used for the communication with the PC side modem, and not with the register,
so they can be different to those of the register and at a speed as high as the one the modem can admit. Most
modems (analogue) are automatically synchronised with the first command sent by VH, at any baud rate (some GSM
models are exceptions).
Alter that, push On Line button in the tool bar. When trying to communicate with a remote unit from the console,
Figure 26 screen will appear. The telephone number and the communication parameters can be verified, the push
Establish connection button and wait for the communication to be established. The field There is carrier pass
from No value to YES when the communication with the remote modem is established.
Figure 26 Remote Connection
If the communication has been successfully established, after waiting for ten seconds, the program control goes back
to the console.
Anyway, if REMOTE mode is entered, communication can be in LOCAL mode, only by leaving the marker program
through the File menu (see Figure 26) and its Leave without dialling submenu.
When finishing the REMOTE connection, Figure 27 will appear, indicating that the modem is being tried to be hung.
The modem is sent hang commands until the CD (Carrier Detect) modem line fall is detected, if we have connected
through Leave without dialling and we have a Null Modem cable, which keeps invarariably this signal active,
connected to the serial port, the PC serial cable will have to be disconnected in order to deactivate the CD signal and
finish with the communication. It is done that way in order to avoid that any modem which does not respond
immediately, keeps a telephone call, in cases of unattended (Automatic Calls), without the operator supervision. It is
advisable to configure the modem (see modem manual) in order to hang if there has not been enough data traffic
during a certain time (5 min.). Another option that must be fixed to the modem that is calling is to consider the drop
minimum time of the DTR signal in 500 msc. the modem that receives the call must ignore the RTS line.
Being in this program, through remote communication or through local communication, or without establishing, its
handling is carried out by jeans of to types of utilities:
Tool bar Quick access to the most frequent options through icons.
Main menu: Access to all the options through drop-down submenus.

(see IV.1.4 Remote Communication).

PQM300T User Manual

3BUSER INTERFACE
IV.1.8.2. Communication Settings

When pushing in "Communication settings", with the console communicating with the register, a screen as
the one bellow will appear, in which the communication parameters between both of them are indicated.
Figure 33 Communication settings.
If it is not in communication, the console starts a scanning in an attempt of establishing communication

with the register. If it is successful, Figure 33 screen will appear. The register communication parameters
can be noted down and the unit can be configured, in order to be able to communicate with it, or the
desired values can be modified and then modify them in the register by pushing Send button (password is
required).
This option is useful when the communication parameters of a register, with which communication in LOCAL
mode is desired ,are not known.
It is dangerous to use this option with a register communicating in REMOTE mode:
If the register is already communicating with the console and the communication parameters are
changed, these parameters will be those used by the register to communicate with the modem, and
not with the console , so the modem should be switched on and off, as well as the register or the
new modem should be connected or disconnected for this to be reseted to the new parameters.
If the register does not communicate with the console, after making the telephone call through the
modem, and if we execute this option, the parameter scanning is carried out in the PC with the
serial port the modem is connected to (the one we are already communicating with, since the
telephone call has been made), and not with the register through the communication parameters,
so nothing is going to be obtained, except losing the communication with the modem. In this case,
the most probable errors can be a bad configuration of some of the modems , or some of the cables
are faulty/it is not the right one (supposing the PC, the register and the modems operate properly.
IV.1.8.3. Unit connection (register)

The configuration of the register to be connected is indicated through the connection screen. It is an
alternative option of specifying the unit settings, by means of the option Settings, and it has been thought
to be used by non-specialised workers in the operation of this kind of units, when the physical connection to
the net occur. Firstly, the connection type is selected; by selecting star connection voltages between phases
or ground-phase voltages can be measured (without selecting the cell), and also if phase-ground events are
ignored or not. By selecting the delta connection, only measurements between phases are measured.

PQM300T User Manual
62
3BUSER INTERFACE
Figure 34 Connection screen.
The rated voltage between phases has also to be indicated, as well as if current channels and measurements
transformers are connected. If current or voltage channels are connected, the transformation ration between
the primary and the secondary has to be indicated.
The secondary current and voltage measurement values can be checked (without taking into account the
transformation ratio), alarms will appear when pushing next, if the console detects any anomaly in the
transformation ratio, current or voltage angles, low measurement, etc If any value is modified and next
is pushed, alarms are out again (if they existed) or the following screen is accessed (if no alarms). If there
are alarms and next is pushed again without modifying any value the following screen is allowed to get
access despite the alarms (the alarms are warnings of a possible bad physical connection of the register or a
bad configuration of the settings, covering the most common cases, but not all of them). The possible alarms
and the conditions under they can occur are the following ones:
Non-usual voltage transformation ratio: The voltage transformation ratio is not multiple of 5.
Non-usual current transformation ratio: The current transformation ratio is not a whole value (it
has decimal numbers)
Channel x voltage is very high: Channel x voltage exceeds in 1.1 or 0.635 times the rate voltage,
depending on the configuration: if it is in delta/star without measuring the voltage between phases
or star measuring the voltage between phases.
Channel x voltage is very low: Channel x voltage does not exceed 0.9 or 0.52 times the rate
voltage, depending on the configuration: if it is in delta/star without measuring the voltage between
phases or star measuring the voltage between phases.
Unbalance voltages: The difference between the channel highest voltage and the channel lowest
one exceeds the 2% of the highest one.
Phase sequence is not correct: The voltage angles of phases 2 and 3 are inside the range 115125 and 235-245 respectively.
The voltage angles are not correct: The voltage angles of phases 2 and 3 are not inside the range
235-245 and 115-125 (correct), either inside the range 115-125 and 235-245 (phases 2
and 3 interchanged) respectively.

PQM300T User Manual
63
3BUSER INTERFACE
Non-usual current angles: The difference between the voltage angle and the current angle of
some phase(s) are not inside the range 15-75 (delta) or 45-45 (star).
By pushing next we get access to the following screen:
Figure 35 Connection screen 2.
In this screen the measurements in the primary appear, as well as the enabling of those measurements the
register is desired to carry out (voltages and currents). It is possible to go back to the previous screen if some
data want to be corrected, in case the measurements in the primary are not the expected ones. By pushing
Send, the programmed settings are made effective in the register. Being carried out this process, the
register can be said to be minimally configured for its proper operation.
By pushing Advanced we get access to the setting general screen; all the settings are accessed through
this button (integration time for voltages, powers, harmonics, table depth etc.). It is the same to push the
button Setting. These settings have to be accessed in order to configure completely the register.
IV.1.8.4. Configure settings

By pushing "Setting" the console shows the settings available in the PC; if we are ON LINE with the register,
the file data are updated communicating with the register before showing them. Initially PQM and PC
column have the same data, the changes to be carried out will be reflected only in the PC column. When the
settings are sent to the register, confirmation of the action to be carried out is requested by means of
password (see Figure 24), because this action provokes the table change in the register ( that is, a new table
is generated), and this change may not interest. The setting page screens are those shown in Figure 36:

IV.1.8.5. Request between dates

For the data register selection a dialogue chart as the one shown in Figure 37 is used, where, apart from the
start and end date, the way of requesting is also shown. Firstly the oldest record date and the newest one
existing in the PC are shown. If pushing Accept all the records stored in the PC file are displayed. If there
is no file in the PC, the dates 1/1/1990 and the day after the current date are displayed.
Request type:
Direct request to the register (Not Marked): If the date range selection is inside the limits of the
data stored in the PC file, there is no communication with the register and the data are taken out
of the files. If the range of dates is higher than the last record stored in the PC file, it carries out
the request to the register from the date of the last record stored in the file, stores the new records
in the file and finally shows only those whose date is inside the selected range (the newest ones
may no not be seen if the end date is not newer than them, although they have been brought in the
communication process).
Direct request to the register (Not Marked): It carries out the request to the register with the
indicated dates, it displays what the registers gives back but the data is not stored in the PC.
Figure 37 Request between dates.
IV.1.8.6. Bring sags

With this option the sag list is requested/displayed through a date selection.
IV.1.8.7. Bring events

By pushing "Events", the request/displaying of events between data is carried out. A dialogue chart of
request between dates appear in which the two limit dates between which the occurred events want to be
displayed are. But, although the displaying occurs between those two dates, if the end date is later than the
oldest one stored in the event file of the unit in the PC, the console asks the register for the data from the
oldest date to the last one stored in its memory, and stores all of them in the hard disk. Only those indicated
by the user will be displayed.
When the communication is over, the events are listed according to what have been specified in the section
of sags and swells, that is, displaying a list of each of the events (sags and swells) per phase chronologically
in which the information is broken down according to the note type.
The screen showing the events has a particular menu (see Figure 38) with the following options:
Export to text: It allows exporting the list content to an ASCII file.
Unfold all: It shows the detail of all events notes.
Compact all: It only shows the event summaries.

enabled/disabled depending on what we have selected: the graphic or the list. The same happens when we
want to print, the list or the graphic will be printed, depending on which one is selected.
IV.1.8.8. Bring interruptions

With this option the interruption list is requested/displayed by selecting the dates. This list is an interruption
historical, in which the last record is usually incomplete and it is marked with the character I, at the end
of the line that represents it in the list.
IV.1.8.9. Bring tables (of sags and swells)

When pushing "Bring tables", the PC ask for the last 15 tables of sags and swells stored in it. In case a
simultaneous measuring of simple and compound voltages are being carried out, the mark allow accessing to
both groups.
The sag tables appear in order in the left span of Figure 39. Pushing in one of the charts the selected table
is displayed. In order to refresh a table that is being displayed, double click in the date of that table, so the
same has to be asked to the register again.
In order to see the swell tables, push the button Swells, and Figure 40 screen will appear. The operation
process is the same as the one explained for the sag tables. (As it happens with the settings, if it is no
communicating with the register, the displayed table are those of the PC).

IV.1.8.10. Bring Historical (V & I powers, harmonics and quality)

The request/displaying of the different available historical is carried out between dates, through the main
menu or the tool bar.
Once the communication is over, a list with the notes taken in each programmed period of register will be
available. To be more precise, each note has the record date and time as well as the value of the magnitudes
to be registered. Through this list you can also have access to the graphics of the different magnitudes
stored, through the menu or pushing the corresponding menu.
The list is presented in a split window, divided in two scalable halves, one for the list of all the represented
records, occupying one line each, and in the other one the selected record data appear in a tab way for a
better viewing at first sight (see Figure 42); this text can be selected and copy to the clipboard, by pushing
CTRL+C, in order to be able to paste in any application that allows it.

IV.1.8.11. Bring statisticals (V & I, powers, harmonics and quality)

The request/displaying of the available statisticals is carried out between dates, through the main menu or
the tool bar. It is similar to the historical one (see IV.1.8.10 Bring historicals (V & I, powers, harmonics and
quality)), with the only exception that the statistical type has to be selected among the available ones
(schedule, daily, weekly, monthly, and annual) through a submenu as the one in Figure 44. The quality

The available oscillograph data recorders are shown in a list with dates, from which the ones to be displayed
are selected.
Figure 45 shows a graphic representation of the oscillograph. There is a list with all the available
oscillograph, from which the oscillograph to be displayed is selected. The presentation is configurable from
where the oscillograph to be displayed is selected. The presentation can be configured by the user it can be
carried out in one or more spans.
You can get access to the representation ways from the oscillograph span, by pushing Graphic as many
times as windows are desired (see IV.1.13 Graphic handling).
The program stores the way of representing the oscillograph (position and size of the graphic spans, curves
represented in each graphic, etc.) used when closing the oscillograph list span.

stored from a previous execution. (if it existed).
The graphic handling can be carried out with the PQM console menu (of specific names in each type of data and of
appearance as in Figure 58) and/or with mouse movements and/or key combinations.
Figure 58 Graphic menu
General options of menus associated to the graphics and their equivalent by using the mouse:
Scale: It rescales the X and Y axis in order all the represented curves to be completely seen. There is a
button, with the same name, on the right of the drop-down lists of curve selection, which carries out the same
function as when pushing it.
Reverse white/black: It reverses White/Black colours in the graphic (curves and graphic background). It is
useful when sending a graphic to the printer. It can also be carried out by double clicking the central button of
the mouse on the graphic.
Copy Graphic: It copies the graphic in the clipboard (on order to paste in an application supporting graphics)
Zoom: It allows moving among the carried out zooms:
Previous zoom: Idem with the mouse right button click on the graphic.
Forward zoom: Idem with the mouse central button click on the graphic.
Initial Zoom: Idem with a double click of the mouse right button on the graphic.
Legends: It modifies the legends position (data text identifying each curve), initially situated on the upper
left corner of the graphic:
Hide: It displays/hides the legends. Idem with a double click of the mouse left button on the
graphic.
Right: It locates the legends on the right/left of the graphic.

Down: It locates the legends on the top/bottom of the graphic.
Hide Title: It hides the bar with the window title, in order to widen the representation area. Idem with a
double click of the mouse left button on the adjacent grey zone of the axis X and Y (bottom and left outside the
graphic).
Hide Controls: It hides the graphic handling controls in order to widen the representation area. Idem with a
double click of the mouse left button on the opposite grey zone of the axis X and Y (top and right outside the
graphic).

Apart from the graphic manipulation through the menu options, there are some actions that can only be carried out by
using the keyboard and the mouse:
Zoom: The zone to be widened is defined by selecting by dragging with the mouse left button. The zone to be
widened is slightly modified in order all the units appearing in the axis to have rounded values. The zoom limit
is the axis resolution; there is no use in doing zooms when all the axis marks show the same values.
By pushing SHIFT key, when selecting the zone to be widened, the graphic proportion is maintained:
the widened horizontal range is the function of the selected vertical one, in order to maintain the
proportion, centred in the selected horizontal range.
By pushing CTRL key, when selecting the zone to be widened; the graphic proportion is maintained:
the widened vertical range is the function of the selected horizontal one, in order to maintain the
proportion, centred in the selected vertical range
Scroll: both the keyboard and the mouse can be used to scroll the graphic without modifying the zoom level
existing in that moment:
Mouse: Drag the graphic with the mouse right button in any direction. If the movement wants to be
limited to horizontal or vertical scrolls, keep the key CTRL or SHIFT pushed respectively.
Keyboard: a selected graphic can be scrolled by jeans of cursor scroll keys in any of the tour directions
(upwards, downwards, towards left or towards right), pixel by pixel. If any of the keys CTRL, ALT or
SHIFT are simultaneously pushed with the scroll key, the scroll speed is multiplied by ten for each of
the key that is pushed.
The graphic can be moved page by page (window) horizontally (time axis) with the corresponding keys
of Page forwards and Page backwards. If, besides CTRL or SHIFT is pushed the scroll is vertically done
(measurement axis).
If any zoom has been carried out, it is possible to go to the beginning or to the end of the graphic, in
the time axis, by pushing key START or END.
IV.1.14 Automatic Call

PQM Console is capable of communicating in an unattended way with a set of units, specially indicated for remote
Units and it is also capable of making a good use of the time when the telephone fare is cheaper.
For that it is necessary:
To indicate in each unit configuration that it is included inside the Automatic Call (see Figure 22 or Figure
20).
To configure the parameters of the Automatic Call (see Figure 59).
To select the data to be brought (see Figure 19).
To configure the moment in which the communication is going to take place.
A small program of general purpose PQM Launcher is in charge of this last point. This program is included in the
PQM console software, but is independent of the console itself (seer IV.1.14.2 Program Launch).
In the Automatic Call, apart from updating the enabled files (see Figure 19) of each unit it communicates with, some
lines are added to the following files located in the INSTALLAT. directory:
Comunics.txt: A line per each attempt of communication, with the unit name, attempt date and result of the
communication. The Automatic Call cycles are separated by a line in blank.
YYMMDDTT.EVT: A line per event record received, with the unit name and the rest the data separated by ;.
YYMMDDT.TEN: A line per voltage and current historical record received, with the unit name and the rest the
data separated by ;.

PQM300T User Manual
76
3BUSER INTERFACE
YYMMDDT.POT: A line per power historical record received, with the unit name and the rest the data separated
by ;.
YYMMDDT.ARM: A line per harmonic historical record received, with the unit name and the rest the data
separated by ;.
The characters YY, MM, DD and TT, of the names of the last files, correspond to two numerical digit of the
year, month, day and time respectively of the moment when the files are generated.
IV.1.14.1. Automatic Call Parameters

You can access through the Options... option of the menu See of the PQM Console and they can be
modified with the following window:
Figure 59 Options.
The options that can be modified are the following ones:
Cycle period (hours): It shows the frequency with which communication with each unit must be
tried.
Number of attempts: If during the Automatic Call process communication with the unit is not
obtained, the following one is accessed and, after having tried with all the units, the attempts are
done with those which it has not had communication with, or those that have not been
communicated or there has been an error in the communication process (if time). The number of
attempts is fixed here.
Alarm threshold: It is a percentage of the communication time set for the Automatic Call. If the
time used for communication with units is higher than the communication maximum time assigned
(time stripe) a threshold is given. This alarm would appear in a text in full screen and in the
Automatic Call following screen (Figure 65). One of these options must be chosen in order to stop
the alarm and be able to fulfil the communication specifications.
Widen the Cycle period.

Increase the communication time stripe (see Figure 62).
Limit the data brought from the units (see Figure19).
Divide the list of units with Automatic call and take a part to another computer.
During the fist times it communicates, it is normal that the alarm gets activated (it is going to try
communication with all the units in the list in the same period of Automatic Call cycle); once a cycle period
is over, the alarm turns to be significative.
Actualize the unit time: It allows synchronising the date and time of the registers with the one
the PC has. Obviously, assure the PC, where the Console software is executed; maintains the
correct date and time all the time, and that the registers do not have a better way of
synchronization (IRIG_B).

IV.1.14.2. Launch program

If executing this program, the main screen appears:
Figure 60 PQM. Launcher
In this screen there appear an animate icon to indicate that the program is operating, at current date and
time, a task list and the frequency with which the Task state is refreshed. The program function is to keep a
task list (programs to execute) and execute them in the moments indicated in the configuration of each task.
Figure 61 Task menu
The task maintenance is carried out through the options of the Tasks menu (Figure 61):
New: It configures a new Task, taking initially the data of the one selected.
Edit: It edits the selected Task (it is also accessible by double click of the Mouse left button on
the Task).
Delete: It deletes the selected Task from the list.
Delete all: It deletes all the Tasks from the list.
Execute: It executes the selected Task instantaneously, regardless its configuration (it is useful
to check if the command line is well configured).
Finish: It finishes the selected task, in case it is being executed configuration (it is useful to
check if the command line is well configured).
If editing the Task that launches the automatic call, the following screen appears:

PQM300T User Manual

3BUSER INTERFACE
Figure 62 Task edition
The items to configure are the following ones:
Comment: Text identifying the Task. It must be different for each of them.
Command: Line to be executed. Executable file with its parameters.
Examine...: It allows selecting the executable file by jeans of Windows, without typing in the
keyboard.
Activation type: There can be two types:
Dates: It is only executed when the specified date condition coincides (inside the
execution stripe ).
Periodical: It is executed every certain configurable fixed time (inside the execution stripe
).
Start Date: It marks the beginning of the execution stripe.
End Date: It marks the end of the execution stripe.
Deactivated: It indicates that the task is not going to be executed.
Overlap: It executes the task although the previous execution is not over.
Finish: It finishes the task when it reaches the end of the execution stripe, in the case it is still
being executed
Recover: In periodical Tasks of irregular execution time, it tries to execute the Task as many
times as it would correspond to it, in the case of an execution exceeds its execution period (all the
Task executions are not supposed to be longer than their execution period).
In case of Automatic Call, the command line is composed by a console executable file and its parameters
can be:
a: Ii indicates that the execution is for Automatic Call.

$t: It indicates to the console the number of seconds it disposes to make the Automatic
Call. The Launch program will substitute this parameter by the time configured as execution
stripe.
The launch program recognised another pseudoparameter:

PQM300T User Manual
79
3BUSER INTERFACE
$c: It substitutes this pseudoparameter by the Task comment. Inside the PQM Console an
executable file Warning.exe is included, the function of which is to display the text it has
been passed as a parameter until a key is pushed. It is useful to display warnings at a certain
time.
The advisable configuration for the Automatic Call is the one that appears in the figure 62, except from the
execution time and the time stripe that will depend on the situation.
In the execution time and the time stripe configuration, a temporal condition to fulfill is indicated. The
symbol * indicates any value (it will imply something cyclical) and they should appear on the left and not
towards the right (a * only in the seconds means that something is being tried to executed during every
seconds of the specified minute). Complex execution conditions can be specified, in which nothing is going
to be executed, so that at the end of the Task edition, there will appear its next execution time next to the
comment and the Task status. There are some execution conditions that cannot be specified in a single Task
(e.g. time stripe only Saturdays and Sundays), but more Tasks executing the same command can be
included (on e for Saturdays and another one for Sundays) in order to do whatever is desired.
The Task status can be:
"Calculating...": Its next execution is being calculated.
"Deactivated": Deactivated by configuration.
"Waiting ": It waits until the indicated execution date.
"Executing": It is being executed without limit date.
"Exec. until": it is being executed until the fate the Launch finishes it.
"Finishing": It is going to be finished because it goes on executing outside the time stripe.
"Finished: No more Task executions are expected with the current configuration..
"Stopped": there is an error in it s configuration (e.g.. it indicates 31st February).
Other Launch menus are the following ones:
Figure 63 Launch File Menu
Load from...: It allows adding the Tasks stored in a file to the list.
Save as...: It allows storing the Task list configuration in a file.
Figure 64 Daemon Menu launcher
Cancel: It prevents the Launcher program to from executing any Task. It is useful in case of a
bad Task configuration in which something can be repeatedly executed without the option of
deactivating the Task. With Ctrl+D, the Launcher is stopped and the error can be corrected. The
animate icon is stopped and it is coloured red.

PQM300T User Manual

3BUSER INTERFACE
Resume: Option that unmakes the previous option.
Resident: It hides the Launcher program without stopping being executed. By executing the new
Launcher program it turns invisible again.
In the PQM Console software installation the Launcher is included in the Operative System, Start folder, in
order to be executed hidden with the two tasks that appear in Figure 60 deactivated.
IV.1.14.3. Automatic Call monitoring

Access through the Automatic call option of the PQM console File menu and when selecting it, Figure
65 screen appears. A Unit list is shown in this screen, according to the different selectable organization way.
All the units configured to enter the Automatic Call or only those with which communication can be
established ( in general a error has occurred in communication) can be displayed. If a unit is selected the
following will be displayed:
Comment of the Installation it belongs to.
Comment of the unit itself.
Date of the last correct communication.
Date of the last failed attempt.
Number of failed attempt.
Cause of the last failure.
If the unit has never communicated, the dates are outside the range, as in Figure 65.
If there is Automatic Call alarm, an icon representing a red clock appears on the left side of the
Communicate with the unit button.
The Communicate with the unit button allows making an Automatic Call with the selected unit, at that
moment without looking at any other condition.
