Note: This edition of the circuit monitor instruction bulletin describes features available
in series G4 or later and firmware version 17.009 (or higher). Series 2000 circuit
monitors with older series numbers or firmware versions will not include all features
described in this instruction bulletin. If you have Series 2000 circuit monitors that do
not have the latest firmware version and you want to upgrade their firmware,
contact your local Square D representative for information on purchasing the Class
3020 Type CM-2000U Circuit Monitor Firmware Upgrade Kit.

WHAT IS THE The POWERLOGIC Circuit Monitor is a multifunction, digital

CIRCUIT MONITOR? instrumentation, data acquisition and control device. It can replace a variety
of meters, relays, transducers and other components. The circuit monitor is
equipped with RS-485 communications for integration into any power
monitoring and control system. However, POWERLOGIC System Manager
application software—written specifically for power monitoring and
control—best supports the circuit monitor’s advanced features.

The circuit monitor is a true rms meter capable of exceptionally accurate

measurement of highly nonlinear loads. A sophisticated sampling technique
enables accurate, true rms measurement through the 31st harmonic. Over 50
metered values plus extensive minimum and maximum data can be viewed
from the six-digit LED display. Table 1-1 on page 3 provides a summary of
circuit monitor instrumentation.

The circuit monitor is available in several models to meet a broad range of

power monitoring and control applications. Table 1-2 on page 3 lists the
circuit monitor models. Table 1-3 compares the features available by model.

Circuit monitor capabilities can be expanded using add-on modules that

mount on the back of the circuit monitor. A voltage/power module and
several input/output modules are available. See Input/Output Capabilities in
Chapter 3 for a description of the available I/O modules.

EXPANDED MEMORY New Series G4 (or higher) circuit monitor models CM-2150 and higher now
are factory-equipped with 100 kilobytes (100K) of nonvolatile memory.
(Earlier Series G3 models CM-2150 and CM-2250 shipped with 11K of
memory, models CM-2350 and CM-2450 with 100K of memory.)

 1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved 3

Bulletin No. 3020IM9806
February 1999

EXPANDED MEMORY (cont.) For applications where additional memory is required, you can order a
circuit monitor with an optional 512K or 1024K memory expansion card,
resulting in 612K or 1124K, respectively, total nonvolatile memory (100K
base memory plus the expansion card memory). Memory upgrade kits are
also available for most earlier circuit monitors. See Upgrading Existing
Circuit Monitors, page 5.

Requirements for Using System Manager software version 3.02 with Service Update 1, 3.02a with
Expanded Memory Service Update 1, or 3.1 (or higher) is required to take advantage of expan-
sion card memory or the 100K of memory standard on G4 circuit monitors.
Earlier versions of System Manager software will recognize only 11K (the
Series G3 and earlier memory capacity) of available memory.

Also, your circuit monitor must be equipped with firmware version 17.009 or
later to take advantage of expanded memory. The following section tells how
to determine the firmware version shipped with your circuit monitor.

To determine if your circuit monitor firmware version has been updated with
downloadable firmware, see Viewing Configuration Data in Protected Mode
in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin.

To obtain the latest available firmware revision contact your local Square D
representative (see Note, page 1.)

Identifying the Series and The circuit monitor series and firmware revision numbers are printed on a
Firmware Revisions sticker on the top of the circuit monitor enclosure. Figure 1-1 shows a sample
sticker.

Model Numbers Circuit monitor models equipped with an optional memory expansion card
are differentiated from standard models by a suffix—either -512k or -1024k—
added to the model number (table 1-4). As shown in the table, the memory
expansion option is available for model numbers CM-2150, CM-2250,
CM-2350, and CM-2450. The CM-2452 circuit monitor is now obsolete and
has been replaced by the CM-2450-512k, which has more memory at a lower
price than the CM-2452. However, existing CM-2452 circuit monitors can be
upgraded as detailed on the following page.

 Chapter 1—Introduction

Upgrading Existing Memory upgrade kits are available for field installation by a qualified
Circuit Monitors electrician. No special tools are required.

! DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, BURN, OR EXPLOSION
Only qualified electrical workers should install a memory upgrade kit
in a circuit monitor. Perform the upgrade only after reading the
installation instructions shipped with the upgrade kit. Before remov-
ing the cover of the circuit monitor to install the memory board:
• Disconnect all voltage inputs to the circuit monitor
• Short the CT secondaries
• De-energize the control power inputs

Failure to observe this precaution will result in death or

serious injury.

For Series G3 and earlier circuit monitors, the memory upgrade kit can be
installed only in circuit monitor models CM-2350 and CM-2450.

Note: Model CM-2452 was factory-equipped with 100K of memory and a 256K
memory expansion card, for a total of 356K of memory. The 256K card can be
removed and replaced with a 512K or 1024K expansion card, for total memory of
either 612K or 1124K.

The memory upgrade kit can be installed in Series G4 models CM-2150 and
higher. Memory upgrade kits are available with either the 512k or 1024k
memory card (see table 1-5). No special tools are required for installation.

Min/Max Values The circuit monitor stores minimum and maximum values for all real-time
readings in nonvolatile memory. In addition, the circuit monitor (except
model CM-2050) stores the date and time associated with each minimum and
each maximum.

Minimums and maximums for front panel values can be viewed on the
circuit monitor’s LED display. All min/max values—including those not
displayable from the front panel—can be reset from the circuit monitor’s
front panel. See Resetting Demand, Energy and Min/Max Values in
Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin for reset
instructions.

Using POWERLOGIC application software you can:

• View all min/max values and their associated dates and times
• Upload min/max values—and their associated dates and times—from the
circuit monitor and save them to disk
• Reset all min/max values

For instructions on viewing, saving, and resetting min/max data using

POWERLOGIC software, refer to the instruction bulletin included with the
software.

Power Factor Min/Max All running min/max values, with the exception of power factor, are
Conventions arithmetic minimums and maximums. For example, the minimum phase A-B
voltage is simply the lowest value in the range 0 to 3,276,700 V that has
occurred since the min/max values were last reset. In contrast, power factor
min/max values—since the meter’s midpoint is unity—are not true arith-
metic minimums and maximums. Instead, the minimum value represents the
measurement closest to -0 on a continuous scale of -0 to 1.00 to +0. The
maximum value is the measurement closest to +0 on the same scale.

Figure 2-1 shows the min/max values in a typical environment, assuming a

positive power flow. In figure 2-1, the minimum power factor is -.7 (lagging)
and the maximum is .8 (leading). It is important to note that the minimum
power factor need not be lagging, and the maximum power factor need not
be leading. For example, if the power factor values ranged from -.75 to -.95,
then the minimum power factor would be -.75 (lagging) and the maximum
power factor would be -.95 (lagging). Likewise, if the power factor ranged
from +.9 to +.95, the minimum would be +.95 (leading) and the maximum
would be +.90 (leading).

changing the sign convention over the communications link.

Demand Power To be compatible with electric utility billing practices, the circuit
Calculation Methods monitor provides the following types of demand power calculations:
• Thermal Demand
• Block Interval Demand with Rolling Sub-Interval
• External Pulse Synchronized Demand

The default demand calculation method is Thermal Demand. The Thermal

Demand Method and the External Synch Pulse method can be set up from the
circuit monitor faceplate. (See Setting the Demand Interval in Chapter 4 of
the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin for setup instructions.)
Other demand calculation methods can be set up over the communications
link. A brief description of each demand method follows.

12  1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved

 Chapter 2—Metering Capabilities

Demand Power Calculation Thermal Demand:

Methods (cont.) The thermal demand method calculates the demand based on a thermal
response and updates its demand calculation every 15 seconds on a sliding
window basis. The user can select the demand interval from 5 to 60 minutes
in 5 minute increments. See Setting the Demand Interval in Chapter 4 of the
Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin for instructions.

Block Interval Demand:

The block interval demand mode supports a standard block interval and an
optional subinterval calculation for compatibility with electric utility elec-
tronic demand registers.

In the standard block interval mode, the user can select a demand interval
from 5 to 60 minutes in 5-minute increments. (See Setting the Demand
Interval in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin
for instructions.) The demand calculation is performed at the end of each
interval. The present demand value displayed by the circuit monitor is the
value for the last completed demand interval.

Block Interval Demand with Sub-Interval Option:

When using the block interval method, a demand subinterval can be
defined. The user must select both a block interval and a subinterval length.
The block interval must be divisible by an integer number of subintervals. (A
common selection would be a 15-minute block interval with three
5-minute subintervals.) The block interval demand is recalculated at the end
of every subinterval. If the user programs a subinterval of 0, the demand
calculation updates every 15 seconds on a sliding window basis.

External Pulse Synchronized Demand:

The circuit monitor can be configured to accept—through status input S1—
a demand synch pulse from another meter. The circuit monitor then uses the
same time interval as the other meter for each demand calculation. See
Demand Synch Pulse Input in Chapter 3 for additional details.

Predicted Demand The circuit monitor calculates predicted demand for kW, kVAr, and kVA.
The predicted demand is equal to the average power over a one-minute
interval. The predicted demand is updated every 15 seconds.

Peak Demand The circuit monitor maintains, in nonvolatile memory, a running

maximum—called “peak demand”—for each average demand current and
average demand power value. It also stores the date and time of each peak
demand. In addition to the peak demand, the circuit monitor stores the
coinciding average (demand) 3-phase power factor. The average 3-phase
power factor is defined as “demand kW/demand kVA” for the peak demand
interval.

Peak demand values can be reset from the circuit monitor front panel, or
over the communications link using POWERLOGIC application software. To
reset peak demand values from the circuit monitor front panel, see Resetting
Demand, Energy, and Min/Max Values in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor
Installation and Operation Bulletin.

Bulletin No. 3020IM9806
February 1999

Generic Demand The circuit monitor has the capability to perform a thermal demand calcula-
tion on 20 user-specified quantities. The user can select the demand interval
from 5–60 minutes in 5-minute increments. For each quantity, the present,
minimum, and maximum demand values are stored. The date and time of the
minimums and maximums for the first ten demand quantities are also stored.

To set up the demand calculation for a specific quantity, write the corre-
sponding register number for that quantity in the register range of 2205–2224.
The generic demand interval can be configured by writing the desired
interval in register 2201. (For a complete list of all registers and their descrip-
tions pertaining to generic demand, see the register list in Appendix B,
beginning with register number 2200. For instructions on reading and
writing to registers, see the software instruction manual.)

Minimum and maximum generic demand values can be reset by using

POWERLOGIC application software. The minimum and maximum values can
be reset by resetting the peak current demand values or through the command
interface using command 5112 (see Command Interface in Chapter 9). Com-
mand 5112 will reset only the generic demand minimums and maximums.

Voltage Demand The circuit monitor is pre-configured to perform a demand calculation on

voltage using the generic demand capability. Generic demand registers 2230-
2253 automatically contain the values of the present voltage demand values,
along with the corresponding minimums and maximums. The date and time
for the minimum and peak voltage demands are located in registers 1900–1941.
These quantities can be viewed using POWERLOGIC application software.

ENERGY READINGS The circuit monitor provides energy values for kWH and kVARH, which can
be displayed on the circuit monitor, or read over the communications link.

14  1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved

 Chapter 2—Metering Capabilities

GENERIC DEMAND The circuit monitor can accumulate these energy values in one of two modes:
(CONT.) signed or unsigned (absolute). In signed mode, the circuit monitor considers
the direction of power flow, allowing the accumulated energy magnitude to
both increase and decrease. In unsigned mode, the circuit monitor accumulates
energy as positive, regardless of the direction of power flow; in other words,
the energy value increases, even during reverse power flow. The default
accumulation mode is unsigned. Accumulated energy can be viewed from the
front panel display. The resolution of the energy value will automatically
change through the range of 000.000 kWh to 000,000 MWh (000.000 kVARh to
000,000 kVARh), or it can be fixed. (See Appendix B, register 2027 on page 97.)

The circuit monitor provides additional energy readings that are available
over the communications link only. They are:
• Directional accumulated energy readings. The circuit monitor calculates
and stores in nonvolatile memory accumulated values for energy (kWH)
and reactive energy (kVARH) both into and out of the load. The circuit
monitor also calculates and stores apparent energy (kVAH).
• Conditional accumulated energy readings. Using these values, energy
accumulation can be turned off or on for special metering applications.
Accumulation can be turned on over the communications link, or acti-
vated from a status input change. The circuit monitor stores the date and
time of the last reset of conditional energy in nonvolatile memory.
• Incremental accumulated energy readings. The real, reactive and apparent
incremental energy values reflect the energy accumulated during the last
incremental energy period. You can define the increment start time and
time interval. Incremental energy values can be logged in circuit monitor
memory (models CM-2150 and up) and used for load-profile analysis.

POWER ANALYSIS VALUES The circuit monitor provides a number of power analysis values that can be
used to detect power quality problems, diagnose wiring problems, and more.
Table 2-4 on page 16 summarizes the power analysis values.

THD—Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is a quick measure of the total

distortion present in a waveform. It provides a general indication of the
“quality” of a waveform. The circuit monitor uses the following equation to
calculate THD:
H 22 + H 32 + H 42 +
THD = x 100%
H1
thd—An alternate method for calculating Total Harmonic Distortion, used
widely in Europe. The circuit monitor uses the following equation to calcu-
late thd:
H 22 + H 32 + H 42 +
thd = x 100%
Total rms
K-Factor—K-Factor is a simple numerical rating used to specify transformers
for nonlinear loads. The circuit monitor uses the following formula to
calculate K-Factor:
SUM (Ih)2 h 2
K= 2
I rms
 1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved 15
Bulletin No. 3020IM9806
February 1999

POWER ANALYSIS VALUES Displacement Power Factor—For purely sinusoidal loads, the power factor
(Cont.) calculation kW/kVA is equal to the cosine of the angle between the current
and voltage waveforms. For harmonically distorted loads, the true power
factor equals kW/kVA—but this may not equal the angle between the
fundamental components of current and voltage. The displacement power
factor is based on the angle between the fundamental components of current
and voltage.

Harmonic Values—The individual per-phase harmonic magnitudes and

angles through the 31st harmonic are determined for all currents and volt-
ages in model numbers 2350 and higher circuit monitors. The harmonic
magnitudes can be formatted as either a percentage of the fundamental
(default), or a percentage of the rms value. Refer to Chapter 9—Advanced
Topics for information on how to configure the harmonic calculations.

STATUS INPUTS The circuit monitor’s I/O modules offer 1, 4, or 8 status inputs (see table 3-1
on the previous page). Status inputs can be used to detect breaker status,
count pulses, count motor starts, and so on.

The following are important points about the circuit monitor’s status inputs:
• The circuit monitor maintains a counter of the total transitions for each
status input.
• Status input S2 is a high-speed status input. Input S2 can be tied to an
external relay used to trigger the circuit monitor’s 12-cycle event capture
feature (see Extended Event Capture in Chapter 6).
Note: The IOM-11 module does not have an input S2.
• Status input transitions can be logged as events in the circuit monitor’s
on-board event log.
• Status input transition events are date and time stamped. For the IOM-11,
IOM-18, and IOM-44, the date and time are accurate to within one second.
For the IOM-4411 and IOM-4444, all status input transition events are
time stamped with resolution to the millisecond, for sequence of events
recording.
• Status input S1 can be configured to accept a demand synch pulse
from a utility demand meter (see Demand Synch Pulse Input on the
next page).
• Status inputs can be configured to control conditional energy (see
Conditional Energy in Chapter 9 for more information).
• Status inputs can be used to count KYZ pulses for demand and energy
calculation. By mapping multiple inputs to the same counter register, the
circuit monitor can totalize pulses from multiple inputs (see Status Input
Pulse Demand Metering in Chapter 9 for more information).

 Chapter 3—Input/Output Capabilities

DEMAND SYNCH PULSE The circuit monitor can be configured to accept—through status input S1—a
INPUT demand synch pulse from another demand meter. By accepting the demand
synch pulses, the circuit monitor can make its demand interval “window”
match the other meter’s demand interval “window.” The circuit monitor
does this by “watching” status input S1 for a pulse from the other demand
meter. When it sees a pulse, it starts a new demand interval and calculates
the demand for the preceding interval. The circuit monitor then uses the
same time interval as the other meter for each demand calculation. Figure 3-1
illustrates this point.

When in this mode, the circuit monitor will not start or stop a demand
interval without a pulse. The maximum allowable time between pulses is
60 minutes. If 61 minutes pass before a synch pulse is received, the circuit
monitor throws out the demand calculations and begins a new calculation
when the next pulse is received. Once in synch with the billing meter, the
circuit monitor can be used to verify peak demand charges.

Important facts about the circuit monitor’s demand synch feature are listed
below:
• The demand synch feature can be activated from the circuit monitor’s
front panel. To activate the feature, enter a demand interval of zero. (See
Setting the Demand Interval in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installa-
tion and Operation Bulletin for instructions.)
• When the circuit monitor’s demand interval is set to zero, the circuit
monitor automatically looks to input S1 for the demand synch pulse. The
synch pulse output on the other demand meter must be wired to circuit
monitor input S1. (Refer to the appropriate I/O Module instruction
bulletin for wiring instructions.)
• The maximum allowable interval between pulses is 60 minutes.

ANALOG INPUTS The circuit monitor supports analog inputs through the use of optional
input/output modules. I/O module IOM-4411 offers one analog input. I/O
module IOM-4444 offers four analog inputs. Table 3-1, on page 17, lists the
available input/output modules.

This section describes the circuit monitor’s analog input capabilities. For
technical specifications and instructions on installing the modules, refer to
the appropriate instruction bulletin (see list on page 6 of the Circuit Monitor
Installation and Operation Bulletin).

Each analog input can accept either a 0–5 Vdc voltage input, or a 4–20 mA dc
current input. By default, the analog inputs accept a 0–5 Vdc input. To
change an analog input to accept a 4-20 mA signal, the user must connect a
jumper wire to the appropriate terminals on the input module. The jumper
wire places a calibrated 250 ohm resistor (located inside the I/O module)
into the circuit. When a 4-20 mA current is run through the resistor, the
circuit monitor measures an input voltage of 1–5 volts across the resistor.
Refer to the appropriate I/O module instruction bulletin for instructions on
connecting the jumper wire.

To setup analog inputs, application software is required. Using

POWERLOGIC application software, the user must define the following
values for each analog input:
• Units—A six character label used to identify the units of the monitored
analog value (for example, “PSI”).
• Input Type (0–5 V or 4–20 mA)—Tells the circuit monitor whether to use
the default calibration constants, or the alternate calibration constants for
the internal 250 ohm resistor.
• Upper Limit—The value the circuit monitor reports when the input
voltage is equal to 5 volts (the maximum input voltage).
• Lower Limit—The value the circuit monitor reports when the input
voltage is equal to the offset voltage, defined below.
• Offset Voltage—The lowest input voltage (in hundredths of a volt) that
represents a valid reading. When the input voltage is equal to this value,
the circuit monitor reports the lower limit, defined above.
• Precision—The precision of the measured analog value (for example,
tenths of degrees Celsius). This value represents what power of 10 to
apply to the upper and lower limits.

The following are important facts regarding the circuit monitor’s analog
input capabilities:
• When the input voltage is below the offset voltage, the circuit monitor
reports -32,768; POWERLOGIC application software indicates that the
reading is invalid by displaying N/A or asterisks.
• When the input voltage is above five volts (the maximum input voltage)
the circuit monitor reports the upper limit.

RELAY OUTPUT Before we describe the 10 available relay operating modes, it is important
OPERATING MODES to understand the difference between a relay configured for remote (external)
control and a relay configured for circuit monitor (internal) control.

Each mechanical relay output must be configured for one of the following
1. Remote (external) control—the relay is controlled either from a PC using
POWERLOGIC application software, a programmable controller or, in the
case of a CM-2450 or CM-2452, a custom program executing in the meter.
2. Circuit monitor (internal) control—the relay is controlled by the circuit
monitor (models CM-2150 and above), in response to a set-point con-
trolled alarm condition, or as a pulse initiator output

Once you’ve set up a relay for circuit monitor control (option 2 above), you
can no longer operate the relay remotely. You can, though, temporarily
override the relay, using POWERLOGIC application software.

The first three operating modes—normal, latched, and timed—function

differently when the relay is remotely controlled versus circuit monitor con-
trolled. The descriptions below point out the differences in remote versus
circuit monitor control. Modes 4 through 10—all pulse initiation modes—are
circuit monitor control modes; remote control does not apply to these modes.

1. Normal
Remotely Controlled: The user must energize the relay by issuing a com-
mand from a remote PC or programmable controller. The relay remains
energized until a command to de-energize is issued from a remote PC or
programmable controller, or until the circuit monitor loses control
power.
Circuit Monitor Controlled: When an alarm condition assigned to the relay
occurs, the relay is energized. The relay is not de-energized until all
alarm conditions assigned to the relay have dropped out, or until the
circuit monitor loses control power.

2. Latched
Remotely Controlled: The user must energize the relay by issuing a com-
mand from a remote PC or programmable controller. The relay remains
energized until a command to de-energize is issued from a remote PC or
programmable controller, or until the circuit monitor loses control
power.
Circuit Monitor Controlled: When an alarm condition assigned to the relay
occurs, the relay is energized. The relay remains energized—even after
all alarm conditions assigned to the relay have dropped out—until a
command to de-energize is issued from a remote PC or programmable
controller, until the P1 alarm log is cleared from the front panel, or until
the circuit monitor loses control power.

22  1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved

 Chapter 3—Input/Output Capabilities

3. Timed
Remotely Controlled: The user must energize the relay by issuing a
command from a remote PC or programmable controller. The relay
remains energized until the timer expires, or until the circuit monitor
loses control power. If a new command to energize the relay is issued
before the timer expires, the timer restarts.
Circuit Monitor Controlled: When an alarm condition assigned to the relay
occurs, the relay is energized. The relay remains energized for the
duration of the timer. When the timer expires, if the alarm has dropped
out, the relay will de-energize and remain de-energized. However, if the
alarm is still active when the relay timer expires, the relay will
de-energize and rapidly re-energize; this sequence will repeat until the
alarm condition drops out.

4. Absolute kWH Pulse

This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kWH per pulse. In this mode, both forward and
reverse real energy are treated as additive (as in a tie breaker).

5. Absolute kVARH Pulse

This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kVARH per pulse. In this mode, both forward
and reverse reactive energy are treated as additive (as in a tie breaker).

6. kVAH Pulse
This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kVAH per pulse. Since kVA has no sign, there is
only one mode for kVAH pulse.

7. kWH In Pulse
This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kWH per pulse. In this mode, only the kWH
flowing into the load is considered.

8. kVARH In Pulse
This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kVARH per pulse. In this mode, only the
kVARH flowing into the load is considered.

9. kWH Out Pulse

This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kWH per pulse. In this mode, only the kWH
flowing out of the load is considered.

10. kVAR Out Pulse

This mode assigns the relay to operate as a pulse initiator with a
user-defined number of kVARH per pulse. In this mode, only the
kVARH flowing out of the load is considered.

MECHANICAL RELAY Input/Output module IOM-44 provides three Form-C 10 A mechanical

OUTPUTS relays that can be used to open or close circuit breakers, annunciate alarms,
and more. Table 3-1 on page 17 lists the available Input/Output modules
(optional).

Circuit monitor mechanical output relays can be configured to operate in one

of 10 operating modes:
• Normal
• Latched (electrically held)
• Timed
• Absolute kWH pulse
• Absolute kVArH pulse
• kVAH pulse
• kWH in pulse
• kVARH in pulse
• kWH out pulse
• kVAr out pulse

See the previous section for a description of the modes.

The last seven modes in the above list are for pulse initiator applications.
Keep in mind that all circuit monitor Input/Output modules provide one
solid-state KYZ pulse output rated at 96 mA. The solid-state KYZ output
provides the long life—billions of operations—required for pulse initiator
applications. The mechanical relay outputs have limited lives: 10 million
operations under no load; 100,000 under load. For maximum life, use the
solid-state KYZ pulse output for pulse initiation, except when a rating higher
than 96 mA is required. See Solid State KYZ Pulse Output in this chapter for
a description of the solid-state KYZ pulse output.

 Chapter 3—Input/Output Capabilities

Setpoint Controlled The circuit monitor can detect over 100 alarm conditions, including over
Relay Functions under conditions, status input changes, phase unbalance conditions, and
more (see Chapter 4—Alarm Functions). Using POWERLOGIC
application software, an alarm condition can be assigned to automatically
operate one or more relays. For example, you could setup the alarm condi-
tion “Undervoltage Phase A” to operate relays R1, R2, and R3. Then, each
time the alarm condition occurs—that is, each time the setpoints and time
delays assigned to Undervoltage Phase A are satisfied—the circuit monitor
automatically operates relays R1, R2, and R3 per their configured mode of
operation. (See Relay Output Operating Modes in this chapter for a descrip-
tion of the operating modes.)

Also, multiple alarm conditions can be assigned to a single relay. For

example, the alarm conditions “Undervoltage Phase A” and “Undervoltage
Phase B” could both be assigned to operate relay R1. The relay remains
energized as long as either “Undervoltage Phase A” or “Undervoltage
Phase B” remains true.

Note: Setpoint-controlled relay operation can be used for some types of non-time-
critical relaying. For more information, see Setpoint Controlled Relay Functions
in Chapter 4.

SOLID-STATE KYZ This section describes the circuit monitor’s pulse output capabilities. For
PULSE OUTPUT instructions on wiring the KYZ pulse output, refer to the appropriate instruc-
tion bulletin.

Input/Output modules IOM-11, IOM-18, IOM-44, IOM-4411, and IOM-4444

are all equipped with one solid-state KYZ pulse output contact (see table 3-1
on page 17). This solid-state relay provides the extremely long life—billions
of operations—required for pulse initiator applications.

The KYZ output is a Form-C contact with a maximum rating of 96 mA. Since
most pulse initiator applications feed solid state receivers with very low
burdens, this 96 mA rating is generally adequate. For applications where a
rating higher than 96 mA is required, the IOM-44 provides 3 relays with 10
amp ratings. Any of the 10 amp relays can be configured as a pulse initiator
output, using POWERLOGIC application software. Keep in mind that the
10 amp relays are mechanical relays with limited life—10 million operations
under no load; 100,000 under load.

The watthour-per-pulse value can be set from the circuit monitor’s front
panel. When setting the kWH/pulse value, set the value based on a 3-wire
pulse output basis. See Setting the Watthour Pulse Output in Chapter 4 of
the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin for instructions. See
Calculating the Watthour Per Pulse Value in this chapter for instructions on
calculating the correct value.

The circuit monitor can be used in 2-wire or 3-wire pulse initiator applica-
tions. Each of these applications is described below.

2-Wire Pulse Initiator Most energy management system digital inputs use only two of the three
wires provided with a KYZ pulse initiator. This is referred to as a 2-wire
pulse initiator application. Figure 3-3 shows a pulse train from a 2-wire pulse
initiator application. Refer to this figure when reading the following points:
• In a 2-wire application, the pulse train looks like alternating open and
closed states of a Form-A contact.
• Most 2-wire KYZ pulse applications use a Form-C contact, but tie into
only one side of the Form-C contact.
• The pulse is defined as the transition from OFF to ON of one side of the
Form-C relay.
• In figure 3-3, the transitions are marked as 1 and 2. Each transition
represents the time when the relay flip-flops from KZ to KY. At points 1
and 2, the receiver should count a pulse.
• In a 2-wire application, the circuit monitor can deliver up to 5 pulses per
second.

26  1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved

 Chapter 3—Input/Output Capabilities

3-Wire Pulse Initiator Some pulse initiator applications require all three wires provided with a KYZ
pulse initiator. This is referred to as a 3-wire pulse initiator application.
Figure 3-4 shows a pulse train for a 3-wire pulse initiator application. Refer
to this figure when reading the following points:
• 3-wire KYZ pulses are defined as transitions between KY and KZ.
• These transitions are alternate contact closures or “flip-flops” of a
Form-C contact.
• In figure 3-4 the transitions are marked as 1, 2, 3, and 4. Each transition
represents the time when the relay flip flops from KY to KZ, or from KZ
to KY. At points 1, 2, 3, and 4, the receiver should count a pulse.
• In a 3-wire application, the circuit monitor can deliver up to 10 pulses per
second.

Calculating the Watthour- This section shows an example of how to calculate the watthour-per-pulse
Per-Pulse Value value. To calculate this value, first determine the highest kW value you can
expect and the required pulse rate. In this example, the following assump-
tions are made:
• The metered load should not exceed 1500 kW.
• The KYZ pulses should come in at about two pulses per second at full
scale.

Step 1: Translate 1500 kW load into kWH/second.

(1500 kW) (1 Hr) = 1500 kWH

(1500 kWH) = “X” kWH

1 hour 1 second

(1500 kWH) = “X” kWH

3600 seconds 1 second

X = 1500/3600 = 0.4167 kWH/second

Step 2: Calculate the kWH required per pulse.

0.4167 kWH/second = 0.2084 kWH/pulse

2 pulses/second

Step 3: Round to nearest tenth, since the circuit monitor only accepts 0.1
kWH increments.
Ke = 0.2 kWH/pulse

Summary:

• 3-wire basis—0.2 kWH/pulse will provide approximately 2 pulses per

second at full scale.
• 2-wire basis—0.1 kWH/pulse will provide approximately 2 pulses per
second at full scale. (To convert to the kWH/pulse required on a 2-wire
basis, divide Ke by 2. This is necessary since the circuit monitor Form C
relay generates two pulses—KY and KZ—for every pulse that is counted
on a 2-wire basis.)

ANALOG OUTPUTS The circuit monitor supports analog outputs through the use of optional
input/output modules. I/O modules IOM-4411-20 and IOM-4444-20 offer
one and four 0-20 mA analog outputs, respectively. I/O modules
IOM-4411-01 and IOM-4444-01 offer one and four 0–1 mA analog outputs,
respectively. Table 3-1, on page 17, lists the available input/output modules.

This section describes the circuit monitor’s analog output capabilities. For
technical specifications and instructions on installing the modules, refer to
page 6 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin.

To setup analog outputs, application software is required. Using

POWERLOGIC application software, the user must define the following
values for each analog output:
• Analog Output Label—A four character label used to identify the output.
• Output Range—The range of the output current: 4–20 mA, for the
IOM-4411-20 and IOM-4444-20; 0–1 mA, for the IOM-4411-01 and
IOM-4444-01.
• Register Number—The circuit monitor register number assigned to the
analog output.
• Lower Limit—The register value that is equivalent to the minimum
output current (0 or 4 mA).
• Upper Limit—The register value that is equivalent to the maximum
output current (1 mA or 20 mA).

The following are important facts regarding the circuit monitor’s analog
output capabilities:
• When the register value is below the lower limit, the circuit monitor
outputs the minimum output current (0 or 4 mA).
• When the register value is above the upper limit, the circuit monitor
outputs the maximum output current (1 mA or 20 mA).

! CAUTION
HAZARD OF EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
Each analog output represents an individual 2-wire current loop.
Therefore, an isolated receiver must be used for each individual
analog output from an IOM-4411 and IOM-4444.

Failure to observe this precaution can result in equipment

damage.

CHAPTER 4—ALARM FUNCTIONS

The circuit monitor (models CM-2150 and higher) can detect over 100 alarm
conditions, including over/under conditions, status input changes, phase
unbalance conditions, and more. (See Alarm Conditions and Alarm Codes
in Appendix D for a complete list of alarm conditions.) The circuit monitor
maintains a counter for each alarm to keep track of the total number of
occurrences.

These alarm conditions are tools that enable the circuit monitor to execute
tasks automatically. Using POWERLOGIC application software, each alarm
condition can be assigned one or more of the following tasks.
• Force data log entries in up to 14 user-defined data log files
(see Data Logging in Chapter 5)
• Operate one or more mechanical relays
(see Mechanical Relay Outputs in Chapter 3)
• Perform a 4-cycle waveform capture
(see 4-Cycle Waveform Capture in Chapter 6)
• Perform a 12-cycle waveform capture
(see Extended Event Capture in Chapter 6)

SETPOINT-DRIVEN ALARMS Many of the alarm conditions—including all over, under, and phase unbal-
ance alarm conditions—require that you define setpoints. Other alarm
conditions, such as status input transitions and phase reversals do not
require setpoints. For those alarm conditions that require setpoints, you must
define the following information:
• Pickup Setpoint
• Pickup Delay (in seconds)
• Dropout Setpoint
• Dropout Delay (in seconds)

For instructions on setting up alarm/relay functions from the circuit monitor

front panel, see Setting Up Alarm/Relay Functions in Chapter 4 of the

 Chapter 4—Alarm Functions

SETPOINT-CONTROLLED A circuit monitor—model CM-2150 (or higher) equipped with an I/O

RELAY FUNCTIONS module—can mimic the functions of certain motor management devices such
as phase loss, undervoltage, or reverse phase relays. While the circuit monitor
is not a primary protective device, it can detect abnormal conditions and
respond by operating one or more Form-C output contacts. These outputs can
be used to operate an alarm horn or bell to annunciate the alarm condition.

Note: The circuit monitor is not designed for use as a primary protective relay. While
its setpoint-controlled functions may be acceptable for certain applications, it should
not be considered a substitute for proper circuit protection.

If the user determines that the circuit monitor’s performance is acceptable,

the output contacts can be used to mimic some functions of a motor manage-
ment device. When deciding if the circuit monitor is acceptable for these
applications, keep the following points in mind:
• Circuit monitors require control power in order to operate properly.
• Circuit monitors may take up to 5 seconds after control power is applied
before setpoint-controlled functions are activated. If this is too long, a
reliable source of control power is required.
• When control power is interrupted for more than approximately 100
milliseconds, the circuit monitor releases all energized output contacts.
• Standard setpoint-controlled functions may take 2–3 seconds to operate,
even if no delay is intended.
• A password is required to program the circuit monitor’s setpoint con-
trolled relay functions.

A description of some common motor management functions follows. For

detailed instructions on setting up setpoint-controlled functions from the
circuit monitor’s front panel, see Setting Up Alarm/Relay Functions in
Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin, and
Appendix D—Alarm Setup Information in this bulletin.

Undervoltage:
• Pickup and dropout setpoints are entered in volts. Very large values may
require scale factors. Refer to Setting Scale Factors for Extended Metering
Ranges in Chapter 9 for more information on scale factors.
• The per-phase undervoltage alarm occurs when the per-phase voltage is
equal to or below the pickup setpoint long enough to satisfy the specified
pickup delay (in seconds).
• When the undervoltage alarm occurs, the circuit monitor operates any
specified relays.
• Relays configured for normal mode operation remain closed until the
under voltage alarm clears. The undervoltage alarm clears when the
phase voltage remains above the dropout setpoint for the specified
dropout delay period.

Overvoltage:
• Pickup and dropout setpoints are entered in volts. Very large values may
require scale factors. Refer to Setting Scale Factors for Extended Meter-
ing Ranges in Chapter 9 for more information on scale factors.

EVENT LOGGING The circuit monitor provides an event log file to record the occurrence of
important events. The circuit monitor can be configured to log the occur-
rence of any alarm condition as an event. The event log can be configured as
first-in-first-out (FIFO) or fill and hold. Using POWERLOGIC application
software, the event log can be uploaded for viewing and saved to disk, and
the circuit monitor’s event log memory can be cleared.

Event Log Storage Circuit monitor models 2150 and higher provide nonvolatile memory for
event log storage. The size of the event log (the maximum number of events)
is user-definable. When determining the maximum number of events, take
the circuit monitor’s total storage capacity into consideration. For circuit
monitor models 2150 and 2250, the total storage capacity must be allocated
between the event log and up to 14 data logs. For circuit monitor models
2350, 2450, and 2452, the total data storage capacity must be allocated
between an event log, a 4-cycle waveform capture log, an extended event
capture log, and up to 14 data logs. See Memory Allocation in Chapter 9 for
additional memory considerations.

DATA LOGGING Circuit monitor models CM-2150 and higher are equipped with nonvolatile
memory for storing meter readings at regular intervals. The user can
configure up to 14 independent data log files. The following items can be
configured for each data log file:
• Logging Interval—1 minute to 24 hours
• Offset Time
• First-In-First-Out (FIFO) or Fill & Hold
• Values to be logged—up to 100, including date/time of each log entry

Each data log file can be cleared, independently of the others, using
POWERLOGIC application software. For instructions on setting up and
clearing data log files, refer to the POWERLOGIC application software
instruction bulletin.

Alarm-Driven Data Log The circuit monitor can detect over 100 alarm conditions, including over
Entries under conditions, status input changes, phase unbalance conditions, and
more. (See Chapter 4—Alarm Functions for more information.) Each alarm
condition can be assigned one or more tasks, including forced data log
entries into any or all data log files.

For example, assume that you’ve defined 14 data log files. Using
POWERLOGIC software, you could select an alarm condition such as
“Overcurrent Phase A” and set up the circuit monitor to force data log
entries into any of the 14 log files each time the alarm condition occurs.

Organizing Data Log Files There are many ways to organize data log files. One possible way is to
organize log files according to the logging interval. You might also define a
log file for entries forced by alarm conditions. For example, you could set up
four data log files as follows:

Data Log 1: Voltage logged every minute. File is large enough to hold 60
entries so that you could look back over the last hour‘s
voltage readings.

Data Log 2: Voltage, current, and power logged hourly for a historical
record over a longer period.

Data Log 3: Energy logged once daily. File is large enough to hold 31
entries so that you could look back over the last month and
see daily energy use.

Data Log 4: Report by exception file. File contains data log entries that
are forced by the occurrence of an alarm condition. See
Alarm-Driven Data Log Entries above.

Note: The same data log file can support both scheduled and alarm
driven entries.

Data log file 1 is pre-configured at the factory with a sample data log which
records several parameters hourly. This sample data log can be reconfigured
to meet your specific needs.

Storage Considerations The following are important storage considerations:

• Circuit monitor model CM-2150 or higher is required for on-board data
logging.
• For circuit monitor models CM-2150 and CM-2250, the total storage
capacity must be allocated between the event log and up to 14 data logs.
For circuit monitor model 2350 and higher, the total data storage capacity
must be allocated between an event log, a 4-cycle waveform capture log,
an extended event capture log, and up to 14 data logs.
• Circuit monitor standard models CM-2150, CM-2250, CM-2350, and CM-
2450 store up to 51,200 values. Model CM-2452 stores up to 182,272
values. With the -512k memory option, models CM-2150, -2250, -2350, and
-2450 store up to 313,344 values; with the -1024k memory option, models
CM-2150, -2250, -2350, and -2450 store up to 575,488 values. (These
numbers assume that you’ve devoted all of the circuit monitor’s logging
memory to data logging, and the series number of the circuit monitor is
G4 or later.)
• Each defined data log file stores a date and time and requires some
additional overhead. To minimize storage space occupied by dates/times
and file overhead, use a few log files that log many values, as opposed to
many log files that store only a few values each.
• See Memory Allocation in Chapter 9 for additional storage
considerations.

4-CYCLE WAVEFORM Circuit monitor models CM-2250 and CM-2350 are equipped with waveform
CAPTURE capture. Circuit monitors use a sophisticated, high-speed sampling
technique to sample 64 times per cycle, simultaneously, on all current and
voltage inputs.

There are two ways to initiate a waveform capture:

• Manually, from a remote personal computer, using POWERLOGIC
application software
• Automatically, by the circuit monitor, when an alarm condition such as
“Alarm #55: Over value THD voltage Phase A-B” occurs

Both methods are described below.

Manual Waveform Capture Using POWERLOGIC application software, you can initiate a manual
waveform capture from a remote personal computer. To initiate a manual
waveform capture, select a circuit monitor equipped with waveform capture
and issue the acquire command. The circuit monitor captures the waveform,
and the software retrieves and displays it.

POWERLOGIC software lets you view all phase voltage and current wave-
forms simultaneously, or zoom in on a single waveform that includes a data
block with extensive harmonic data.

For instructions on performing manual waveform capture using

POWERLOGIC software, refer to the application software instruction
bulletin.

Automatic Waveform The circuit monitor can detect over 100 alarm conditions—such as
Capture metering setpoint exceeded and status input changes (see Chapter 4—Alarm
Functions for more information). The circuit monitor can be set up to auto-
matically capture and save four cycles of waveform data associated with an
alarm condition.

Bulletin No. 3020IM9806
February 1999

Setting Up the Circuit The circuit monitor must be set up for automatic waveform capture using
Monitor POWERLOGIC application software. To set up the circuit monitor for
automatic waveform capture, perform the following steps:

1. Select an alarm condition. (See Appendix D for a listing of alarm

conditions.)
2. Define the setpoints. (This may not be necessary if the selected alarm is a
status input change, for example.)
3. Select the automatic waveform capture option.

Repeat these steps for the desired alarm conditions. For specific instructions
on selecting alarm conditions and specifying them for automatic waveform
capture, refer to the POWERLOGIC application software instruction manual.

How it Works At the beginning of every update cycle, the circuit monitor acquires four
cycles of sample data for metering calculations (figure 6-1). During the update
cycle, the circuit monitor performs metering calculations and checks for alarm
conditions. If the circuit monitor sees an alarm condition, it performs any
actions assigned to the alarm condition. These actions can include automatic
waveform capture, forced data logs, or output relay operations. For this
example, assume that automatic waveform capture has been assigned to the
alarm condition. When the circuit monitor sees that an alarm condition
specified for automatic waveform capture has occurred, it stores the four
cycles of waveform data acquired at the beginning of the update cycle.

 Chapter 6—Waveform Capture

Waveform Storage Circuit monitor model 2250 stores waveforms differently than model 2350.
The lists below describe how each model stores waveforms.

CM-2250
• Can store only one captured waveform. Each new waveform capture
(either manual or automatic) replaces the last waveform data.
• Stores the captured waveform in volatile memory—the waveform data is
lost on power-loss.
• The captured waveform does not affect event log and data log storage
space. The captured waveform is stored separately.

CM-2350 (and higher)

• Can store multiple captured waveforms.
• Stores the captured waveforms in nonvolatile memory—the waveform
data is retained on power-loss.
• The number of waveforms that can be stored is based on the amount of
memory that has been allocated to waveform capture. See Memory
Allocation in Chapter 9.

EXTENDED EVENT CAPTURE Circuit monitor models CM-2250 and higher are equipped with a feature
called extended event capture. By connecting the circuit monitor to an
external device, such as an undervoltage relay, the circuit monitor can
capture and provide valuable information on short duration events such as
voltage sags and swells.

For a CM-2250, each event capture includes 12 cycles of sample data from
each voltage and current input. For a CM-2350 and higher, an extended event
capture can include 12, 24, 36, 48, or 60-cycles of sample data. An adjustable
trigger delay lets the user adjust the number of pre-event cycles.

In a CM-2250, there are three ways to initiate a 12-cycle event capture:

• Manually, from a remote personal computer using POWERLOGIC
application software
• Automatically, using an external device to trigger the
circuit monitor
• Automatically, by the circuit monitor, when an alarm condition such as
“Alarm #55: Over value THD voltage Phase A-B” occurs.

These methods are described below.

Note: Models CM-2350 and higher can also trigger on high-speed events, allowing
it to perform disturbance monitoring of voltage and current waveforms. See Chapter
7 for a description of the CM-2350's disturbance monitoring capability.

Manual Event Capture Using POWERLOGIC application software, you can initiate a manual exten-
ded event capture from a remote personal computer. Manual event captures,
which can be used for steady-state analysis, can be stored in two ways:
• 12–60 cycles of data captured at 64 samples/cycle for all voltages and
currents simultaneously (12 cycles only in a CM-2250)
• 6–30 cycles of data captured at 128 samples per cycle for selected voltages
and currents (CM-2350 and higher models only)

To initiate a manual capture, select a circuit monitor equipped with extended

event capture, choose the desired method, and issue the acquire command.
The circuit monitor captures the data, and the software retrieves and dis-
plays it. POWERLOGIC software lets you view all captured voltage and
current waveforms up to 60 cycles, simultaneously, or zoom in on a single
waveform.

For instructions on performing manual extended event capture using

POWERLOGIC software, refer to the application software instruction
manual.

Automatic Event Capture— By connecting the circuit monitor to an external device, such as an
High-Speed Trigger undervoltage relay, the circuit monitor can capture and provide valuable
information on short duration events such as voltage sags. (The circuit
monitor must be equipped with an optional I/O module.)

Figure 6-2 shows a block diagram that illustrates the relay-to-circuit monitor

for this application, or any of the status inputs on an IOM-4411 or IOM-4444
can be used for high-speed event capture.

Setting Up the The circuit monitor must be set up for extended event capture using
Circuit Monitor POWERLOGIC application software. The following is an example of setting
up the circuit monitor for event capture:

1. When setting up the circuit monitor, select the alarm condition “Input S2
OFF to ON” (See Appendix D for a listing of alarm conditions.)
2. Select the number of cycles to be stored for the extended event capture.

For specific instructions on specifying an alarm condition for extended event

capture, refer to the POWERLOGIC application software instruction bulletin.

How it Works The circuit monitor maintains a data buffer consisting of 64 data points per
cycle, for all current and voltage inputs. As the circuit monitor samples data,
this buffer is constantly updated. When the circuit monitor senses the
trigger—that is, when input S2 in the above example transitions from off to
on—the circuit monitor can transfer from 12 to 60 cycles of data from the
buffer into the memory allocated for extended event captures.

You can specify from 2 to 10 pre-event cycles. This allows extended captures
from 2 pre-event and from 10 to 58 post-event cycles, to 10 pre-event and
from 2 to 50 post-event cycles. For specific instructions on setting the number
of pre-event and post-event cycles, refer to the POWERLOGIC application
software instruction bulletin.

Capture—Initiated by a setpoint exceeded and status input changes (see Chapter 4—Alarm
Standard Setpoint Functions). The circuit monitor can be set up to save from 12 to 60 cycles of
waveform data associated with the update cycle during which an alarm
condition occurs. The 12 to 60 cycles of captured data do not correspond with
the sample data taken at the beginning of the update cycle. The captured
data is taken from later in the metering update cycle; therefore, the 12 to 60
cycles of captured data may not contain the same data that triggered the
standard setpoint, but rather, the data immediately following. (For automatic
recording of disturbances such as sags and swells, see Chapter 7.)

Setting Up the Circuit Monitor The circuit monitor must be set up for automatic, setpoint-controlled
waveform capture using POWERLOGIC application software. To set up the
circuit monitor, you must do three things:

1. Select an alarm condition. (See Appendix D for a listing of alarm

conditions.)
2. Define the setpoints.
3. Select the check box for automatic waveform capture.

Repeat these steps for the desired alarm conditions. For specific instructions

INTRODUCTION Chapter 6—Waveform Capture describes using a circuit monitor to make an

extended event capture, with 64 points per cycle resolution simultaneously
on all channels, when triggered by an external device such as an
undervoltage relay. This chapter describes how to continuously monitor for
disturbances on the current and voltage inputs of circuit monitor models
2350, 2450, and 2452.

DESCRIPTION Models 2350, 2450, and 2452 can perform continuous monitoring of rms
magnitudes of any of the metered channels of current and voltage. These
calculations can be used to detect sags or swells on these channels.

Momentary voltage disturbances are becoming an increasing concern for

industrial plants, hospitals, data centers, and other commercial facilities.
Modern equipment used in many facilities tends to be more sensitive to
voltage sags and swells, as well as momentary interruptions. POWERLOGIC
Circuit Monitors can help facility engineers diagnose equipment problems
resulting from voltage sags or swells, identify areas of vulnerability, and take
corrective action.

The interruption of an industrial process due to an abnormal voltage condi-

tion can result in substantial costs to the operation, which manifest them-
selves in many ways:
• labor costs for cleanup and restart
• lost productivity
• damaged product or reduced product quality
• delivery delays and user dissatisfaction

The entire process can depend on the sensitivity of a single piece of equip-
ment. Relays, contactors, adjustable speed drives, programmable controllers,
PCs, and data communication networks are all susceptible to transient power
problems. After the electrical system is interrupted or shut down, determin-
ing the cause may be difficult.

DESCRIPTION (CONT.) There are several types of voltage disturbances; each may have different
origins and require a separate solution. For example, a momentary interrup-
tion occurs when a protective device interrupts the circuit feeding the
customer’s facility. Swells and overvoltages are also a concern, as they can
accelerate equipment failure or cause motors to overheat. Perhaps the biggest
power quality problem facing industrial and commercial facilities is the
momentary voltage sag caused by faults on remote circuits.

A voltage sag is a brief (1/2 cycle to 1 minute) decrease in rms voltage

magnitude. A sag is typically caused by a remote fault somewhere on the
power system, often initiated by a lightning strike. In figure 7-1, the fault not
only causes an interruption to plant D, but also results in voltage sags to
plants A, B, and C. Thus, system voltage sags are much more numerous than
interruptions, since a wider part of the distribution system is affected. And, if
reclosers are operating, they may cause repeated sags. The waveform in
figure 7-2 shows the magnitude of a voltage sag, which persists until the
remote fault is cleared.

The disturbance monitoring capabilities of the CM-2350, CM-2450, and

CM-2452 can be used to:
• Identify number of sags/swells/interruptions for evaluation
• Compare actual sensitivity of equipment to published standards
• Compare equipment sensitivity of different brands (contactor dropout,
drive sensitivity, etc.)
• Distinguish between equipment failures and power system related
problems

 Chapter 7—Disturbance Monitoring

• Diagnose mysterious events such as equipment failure, contactor dropout,

computer glitches, etc.
• Determine the source (user or utility) of sags/swells
• Develop solutions to voltage sensitivity-based problems using actual data
• Accurately distinguish between sags and interruptions, with accurate
time/date of occurrence
• Use waveform to determine exact disturbance characteristics to compare
with equipment sensitivity
• Provide accurate data in equipment specification (ride-through, etc.)
• Discuss protection practices with serving utility and request changes to
shorten duration of potential sags (reduce interruption time delays on
protective devices)
• Justify purchase of power conditioning equipment
• Work with utility to provide alternate “stiffer” services (alternate design

OPERATION The circuit monitor calculates rms magnitudes, based on 16 data points per
cycle, every 1/2 cycle. This ensures that even single cycle duration rms
variations are not missed. When the circuit monitor detects a sag or swell, it
can perform the following actions:
• The event log can be updated with a sag/swell pickup event date/time
stamp with 1 millisecond resolution, and an rms magnitude corresponding
to the most extreme value of the sag or swell during the event pickup delay.
• An event capture consisting of up to five back-to-back 12-cycle recordings
can be made, for a maximum of 60 continuous cycles of data. The event
capture has a resolution of 64 data points per cycle on all metered cur-
rents and voltages.
• A forced data log entry can be made in up to 14 independent data logs.
• Any optional output relays can be operated upon detection of the event.
• At the end of the disturbance, these items are stored in the Event Log: a
dropout time stamp with 1 millisecond resolution, and a second rms
magnitude corresponding to the most extreme value of the sag or swell.
• The front panel can indicate, by a flashing Alarm LED, that a sag or swell
event has occurred. A list of up to 10 of the prior alarm codes can be
viewed in the P1 Log from the circuit monitor’s front panel.

In addition to these features, the CM-2350, CM-2450, and CM-2452 include

expanded non-volatile memory for logging. Using POWERLOGIC applica-
tion software, the user can choose how to allocate the nonvolatile memory
among the 14 data logs, the event log, multiple 4-cycle waveform captures
and multiple extended event captures.

MULTIPLE WAVEFORM You can configure the CM-2350, CM-2450, and CM-2452 to record up to five
SETUP back-to-back 12-cycle waveform captures. This allows you to record 60 cycles
of continuous data on all current and voltage inputs, with 64 points per cycle
resolution.

SMS-3000, SMS-1500, To set up the extended waveform capture using SMS-3000, SMS-1500, or
or PMX-1500 PMX-1500, follow these steps:
1. In the Onboard Data Storage screen (figure 7-3), select the number of
cycles for extended capture from the pull-down menu.
2. Allocate the amount of memory to be used for extended waveform
capture by specifying the number of extended waveform captures to
be stored.

As explained in chapter 6, the event capture has a user-programmable

number of pre-event cycles ranging from 2 to 10 cycles. This allows you to
tailor the event capture for more or less pre-event data. On event captures
consisting of multiple 12-cycle recordings, the pre-event cycles apply only to
the first 12-cycle waveform of the series.

SAG/SWELL ALARMS POWERLOGIC application software can be used to set up each of the sag/
swell alarms. For each alarm, the user programs the following data:
• Sag/swell alarm priority
• Pickup setpoint in amps or volts
• Pickup delay in cycles
• Dropout setpoint in amps or volts
• Dropout delay in cycles
• Data and waveform logging instructions
• Relay output actions

Note: Relays which are specified to be operated by high speed status input events
should not be operated by standard events or high speed sag/swell events.
Unpredictable relay operation will result.

CHAPTER 8—CM-2450, CM-2452 WITH PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE

INTRODUCTION Circuit monitor models CM-2450 and CM-2452 are designed to run custom-
ized programs written in the circuit monitor programming language. This
programming language provides you with the application flexibility to adapt
the CM-2450 or CM-2452 to your specialized needs. Programs can be de-
signed to work with all other circuit monitor features, extending the overall
capabilities of the device. A sample CM-2450 program is available from
Square D that includes customized features for enhanced data logging.
Contact POWERLOGIC Engineering Services for information on using the
CM-2450 for other applications.

DESCRIPTION The CM-2450 circuit monitor programming language uses an easy-to-

understand set of programming commands similar to a compiled “BASIC”
language. The programming language includes capabilities such as:
• scheduled tasks
• event tasks (based on undervoltage, over kW…)
• math functions: Add, subtract, multiply, divide, sine, cosine, square root…
• support for various data types: 16-bit signed registers, longs, floats,
power factor, date/time…
• logical operations: AND, OR, XOR, NOT, shift…
• for…next loops, nested IF…Else statements, =, <, >, <>, <+, >=
• Subroutine calls
• 1000 nonvolatile SY/MAX read/write registers
• 2000 virtual registers for scratch pad area
• support for tables of up to 256 items

The programs are developed using an ASCII text editor such as DOS “Edit”
and saved as “.SRC” files. A circuit monitor programming language compiler
is then used to process the text file, looking for syntax errors or illegal com-
mands. Any errors that are found are listed in a report detailing the errors.
After program errors are corrected, the compiler generates a “.HEX” file
which can be downloaded into the circuit monitor using the downloadable
firmware utility program. Programs that are downloaded into the circuit
monitor are secure; they cannot be uploaded. If changes to a program are
desired, the new program can be modified from the original program text file,
re-compiled, and written over the previous program as a new application.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES Examples of applications where the CM-2450 can be very valuable are as
follows:
• metering of specialized utility rate structures
• data reduction using smart data logging
• automatic monthly logging of kWH and Peak Demand
• synchronization of Demand Intervals to Time of Day
• statistical profile analysis of metered quantities
• CBEMA power quality analysis
• calculations for IEEE-519 verification
• metering of combined utilities: gas, water, steam, electric
• non-critical control output decisions such as Load Control or Power
Factor Correction, based on multiple conditions, e.g., Time of Day and
Input Status

Note: Apply the circuit monitor appropriately as a programmable power monitoring

device, not as a primary protective device.

DEVELOPER’S KIT Purchasers of circuit monitor models CM-2450 or CM-2452 can receive a
program developer’s kit at no additional charge. The developer’s kit includes
an instruction bulletin, program compiler, and sample programs, enabling
you to create your own CM-2450 programs. Contact your local Square D
representative or PMO Technical Support to order the developer’s kit.

SETTING SCALE FACTORS The circuit monitor stores instantaneous metering data in single registers.
FOR EXTENDED Each register has a maximum range of 32,767. In order to meter extended
METERING RANGES ranges, current, voltage, and power readings can accommodate multipliers
other than one. Multipliers can be changed from the default value of 1 to
other values such as 10, 100, or 1000. These scale factors are automatically
selected for the user when setting up the circuit monitor, either from the
front panel or using POWERLOGIC application software.

The circuit monitor stores these multipliers as scale factors. A scale factor is
the multiplier expressed as a power of 10. For example, a multiplier of 10 is
represented as a scale factor of 1, since 101=10; a multiplier of 100 is repre-
sented as a scale factor of 2, since 102=100.

If the circuit monitor displays “-OFLO-” for any reading, the scale factor may
need to be changed to bring the reading back into range. For example, since a
circuit monitor register cannot store a number as large as 138,000, a 138 kV
system requires a multiplier of 10. 138,000 is converted to 13,800 x 10. The
circuit monitor stores this value as 13,800 with a scale factor of 1 (since
101=10). The circuit monitor front panel would display the value as 138.00
with the KILO units LED lit.

Scale factors are arranged in scale groups. The abbreviated register list in
Appendix B shows the scale group associated with each metered value.

The command interface can be used to change scale factors on a group of

metered values. The procedure on the following page tells how.

Notes:
• It is strongly recommended that the default scale factors which are automati-
cally selected by POWERLOGIC hardware and software not be changed.
• When using custom software to read circuit monitor data over the communi-
cations link, you must account for these scale factors. To correctly read any
metered value with a scale factor other than 0, multiply the register value
read by the appropriate power of 10.
• When you change a scale factor, all min/max values are reset.

MEMORY ALLOCATION This section describes memory allocation for nonvolatile logging memory
only. It does not apply to nonvolatile memory used to store critical values
such as setup parameters, min/max values, and energy and demand values.
In all circuit monitor models, these critical values are stored in a separate
nonvolatile memory area.

Circuit monitors are available with different amounts of nonvolatile logging

memory. Depending on the circuit monitor model, the available nonvolatile
logging memory must be allocated among an event log, 1 to 14 data logs, a
waveform capture log, and an extended event capture log. Specifics for each
model are described below.

CM-2050—Provides no nonvolatile logging memory.

CM-2150, CM-2250—Available nonvolatile logging memory must be allo-
cated among an event log and 1 to 14 data logs.
CM-2350, CM-2450, CM-2452—Available nonvolatile logging memory must
be allocated among an event log, 1 to 14 data logs, a waveform capture log,
and an extended event capture log.

When using POWERLOGIC application software to set up a circuit monitor,

the choices you make for the items listed below directly affect the amount of
memory used:
• The number of data log files (1 to 14)
• The quantities logged in each entry (1 to 97), for each data log file
• The maximum number of entries in each data log file
• The maximum number of events in the event log file
• The maximum number of waveform captures in the waveform
capture file
• The maximum number of extended event captures in the extended event
capture file

 1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved 69

Bulletin No. 3020IM9806
February 1999

The number you can enter for each of the above items depends on the
amount of the memory that is still available. The amount of memory still
available depends on the numbers you’ve already assigned to the other
items.

Figure 9-1 below shows how the memory might be allocated in a CM-2350.
In this figure, the user has set up a waveform capture log, an extended event
capture log, an event log, and three data logs (two small logs, and one larger
log). Of the total available nonvolatile memory, about 25% is still available. If
the user decided to add a fourth data log file, the file could be no larger than
the space still available—25% of the circuit monitor’s total storage capacity. If
the fourth file had to be larger than the space still available, the user would
have to reduce the size of one of the other files to free up the needed space.

POWERLOGIC System Manager Software indicates the memory allocation

statistics in the On-Board Data Storage dialog box shown in figure 7-3, page
53, and figure 7-4, page 54. The display uses color coding to show the space
devoted to each type of log file along with the space still available. For
instructions on setting up log files using POWERLOGIC software, refer to
the instruction bulletin included with the software.

Memory Example Table 9-1 shows how a user might configure the available memory for
various circuit monitor models. In this example, the circuit monitors have
been set up with one data log that stores the following data hourly: 3-phase
average amps, volts (L-L, L-N), PF, kW, kVAR, frequency, 3-phase demand
for amps, kW, kVA, kWH and kVARH.

The circuit monitors store waveform captures and extended event captures
as follows:
• The CM-2250 can store only one waveform capture and one 12-cycle event
capture. It stores these in volatile memory; therefore, they do not reduce
the amount of nonvolatile memory available for event and data logs.
• The CM-2350 can store multiple waveform captures and extended event
captures. It stores these in nonvolatile memory; therefore, they do affect
the amount of nonvolatile memory available for event and data logs.

For specific instructions on calculating log file sizes, see Appendix C—

Calculating Log File Sizes.

kWH, and kVARH.
➁ Waveform & event captures are stored in non-volatile memory in the CM-2350 and CM-2450. The exact
number of waveforms and event captures that can be stored depends on how much memory is allocated to
event & data logs.
➂ The standard CM-2150, -2250, -2350, and -2450 can store up to 51,200 values (100K).
➃ The CM-2350 and CM-2450 can store up to 20 waveform captures or 8 twelve-cycle event captures.
➄ The standard CM-2452 can store over 180,000 values (356K), including up to 60 waveform captures, or 29
twelve-cycle event captures.

HOW POWER FACTOR IS Each power factor value occupies one register. Power factor values are stored
STORED using signed magnitude notation (see figure 9-2). Bit number 16, the sign bit,
indicates leading/lagging. A positive value (bit 16=0) always indicates
leading. A negative value (bit 16=1) always indicates lagging. Bits 1–9 store a
value in the range 0–1000 decimal. For example the circuit monitor would
return a leading power factor of 0.5 as 500. Divide by 1000 to get a power
factor in the range 0 to 1.000.

1=Lagging

Figure 9-2: Power factor register format

 1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved 71

Bulletin No. 3020IM9806
February 1999

When the power factor is lagging, the circuit monitor returns a high negative
value—for example, -31,794. This happens because bit 16=1 (for example, the
binary equivalent of -31,794 is 1000001111001110). To get a value in the range
0 to 1000, you need to mask bit 16. You do this by adding 32,768 to the value.
An example will help clarify.

Assume that you read a power factor value of -31,794. Convert this to a
power factor in the range 0 to 1.000, as follows:
-31,794 + 32,768 = 974
974/1000 = .974 lagging power factor

CHANGING THE VAR The circuit monitor offers two VAR sign conventions. Figure 9-3 shows
SIGN CONVENTION the default sign convention. Figure 9-4 shows the alternate sign convention.
The procedures below tell how to change the sign convention using the
command interface. For a description of the command interface and a
complete listing of command codes, see The Command Interface in this
chapter.

To change to the alternate sign convention, complete the following steps:

1. Write command code 4311 to register 7700.
2. Write command code 1110 to register 7700.
This resets the circuit monitor, causing it to use the new convention.

To return to the default sign convention, complete the following steps:

1. Write command code 4310 to register 7700.
2. Write command code 1110 to register 7700.
This resets the circuit monitor, causing it to return to the default sign
convention.

CONDITIONAL ENERGY Circuit monitor registers 1629–1648 are conditional energy registers.
Conditional energy can be controlled in one of two ways:
• Over the communications link, by writing commands to the circuit
monitor’s command interface
OR
• By a status input—for example, conditional energy accumulates when the
assigned status input is on, but does not accumulate when the status
input is off.

The following procedures tell how to set up conditional energy for command
interface control, and for status input control. The procedures refer to
register numbers and command codes. For a listing of circuit monitor
registers, see Appendix B. For a listing of command codes, see The Com-
mand Interface in this chapter.

Command Interface Control To set control of conditional energy to the command interface:
■ Write command code 2341 to register 7700.
To verify proper setup, read register 2081. Bit 6 should read 1, indicating
command interface control. Bit 7 should read 0, indicating that condition
energy accumulation is off.

To start conditional energy accumulation:

■ Write command code 6321 to register 7700.
While conditional energy is accumulating, bit 7 of register 2081 should
read 1, indicating that conditional energy accumulation is on.

To stop conditional energy accumulation:

■ Write command code 6320 to register 7700.

To clear all conditional energy registers (1629-1648):

1. Write command code 6220 to register 7700.

Status Input Control To configure conditional energy for status input control:
1. Write command code 2340 to register 7700.
2. Specify the status input that will drive conditional energy accumulation
by writing a bitmap to register 7701. Set the appropriate bit to 1 to
indicate the desired input (input S1=bit 1, S2=bit 2, S3=bit 3, S4=bit 4).
3. Write command code 3390 to register 7700.
To verify proper setup, read register 2081. Bit 6 should read 0, indicating
that conditional energy accumulation is under status input control. Bit 7
should read 0 when the status input is off, indicating that conditional
energy accumulation is off. Bit 7 should read 1 when the status input is
on, indicating that conditional energy accumulation is on.

To clear all conditional energy registers (1629–1648):

■ Write command code 6220 to register 7700.

INCREMENTAL ENERGY The circuit monitor’s incremental energy feature allows you to define a start
time and time interval for incremental energy accumulation. At the end of
each incremental energy period, the following information is available:
• WH IN during the last completed interval (reg. 1649–1651)
• VARH IN during the last completed interval (reg. 1652–1654)
• WH OUT during the last completed interval (reg. 1655–1657)
• VARH OUT during the last completed interval (reg. 1658–1660)
• VAH during the last completed interval (reg. 1661–1663)
• Date/time of the last completed interval (reg. 1869–1871)
• Peak kW demand during the last completed interval (reg. 1749)
• Date/Time of Peak kW during the last interval (reg. 1878–1880)
• Peak kVAR demand during the last completed interval (reg. 1750)
• Date/Time of Peak kVAR during the last interval (reg. 1881–1883)
• Peak kVA demand during the last completed interval (reg. 1751)
• Date/Time of Peak kVA during the last interval (reg. 1884–1886)

The incremental energy data listed above can be logged by the circuit
monitor. This logged data provides all the information needed to analyze
energy and power usage against present or future utility rates. The informa-
tion is especially useful for doing “what ifs” with time-of-use rate structures.

When using the incremental energy feature, keep the following points in
mind:
• Peak demands help minimize the size of the data log in cases of sliding or
rolling demand. Shorter incremental energy periods make it easier to
reconstruct a load profile analysis.
• Since the incremental energy registers are synchronized to the circuit
monitor clock, it is possible to log this data from multiple circuits and
perform accurate totalization.

Using Incremental Energy Incremental energy accumulation begins at the specified start date and offset
time. Once the start date has arrived, a new incremental energy period
begins at the specified offset time.

Incremental energy calculations continue around the clock at the specified

interval. However, a new incremental energy calculation will begin each new
day at the offset time regardless of where it is in the present interval. For
example:

Offset time = 8:00 a.m.

Interval = 14 hours

The first incremental energy calculation will be from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
(14 hours). The next interval will be from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. the next day,
even though that interval will only be 10 hours. This is because 8:00 a.m. is

74  1999 Square D Company All Rights Reserved

 Chapter 9—Advanced Topics

your specified offset time. Incremental energy accumulation will then

continue in this manner until the configuration is changed or a new interval
is started by a remote master.

To set up incremental energy:

1. Write a start date and offset time to registers 1863–1865.
2. Write the desired interval length, from 0–1440 minutes, to register 2076.
If incremental energy will be controlled from a remote master, such as a
programmable controller, write a value of zero here.

To start a new incremental energy interval from a remote master:

■ Write command code 6910 to register 7700.

CHANGING THE DEMAND The circuit monitor can be configured to use one of three demand power
CALCULATION METHOD calculation methods:
• thermal demand (circuit monitor default)
• external pulse synchronized demand
• block interval demand with rolling subinterval (block/rolling)

For a description of the demand power calculation methods, see Demand

Power Calculation Methods in Chapter 2.

The thermal demand method is the default. To set up the circuit monitor for
thermal demand, simply define the demand interval. See Setting the De-
mand Interval in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation
Bulletin for instructions.

Changing to the To change to the block/rolling demand method, the user must write to the
Block/Rolling Method command interface over the communications link. (For a description of the
command interface and a list of command codes, see The Command Inter-
face in this chapter.)

To change to the block/rolling method, complete the following steps:

1. Write command code 5311 to register 7700.
2. Write command code 1110 to command interface register 7700.
This resets the circuit monitor, causing it to recognize the new demand
calculation method.
3. Write a subinterval value in minutes into register 2078. If the subinterval
is set equal to the demand interval, the demand calculation will update
once each demand interval (block mode). If the subinterval equals zero,
the demand calculation will update every 15 seconds (sliding window).

SETTING UP A DEMAND The external pulse synchronized demand method allows a circuit monitor,
SYNCH PULSE INPUT equipped with an I/O module, to accept a demand synch pulse from another
demand meter. When this method is used, the circuit monitor watches input
S1 for a pulse that signals the start of a new demand interval. This allows the
circuit monitor’s demand interval “window” to match the other meter’s
demand interval “window.” For a detailed description of this feature, see
Demand Synch Pulse Input in Chapter 3.

To set up the circuit monitor to accept a demand synch pulse input:

■ Set the demand interval to 0 from the circuit monitor front panel. See
Setting the Demand Interval in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installa-
tion and Operation Bulletin for instructions on setting the demand interval
using the circuit monitor’s front panel.

SETTING UP INDIVIDUAL Circuit monitor models 2350 and higher can perform harmonic magnitude
HARMONIC CALCULATIONS and angle calculations for each metered input. The harmonic magnitude can
be formatted as either a percentage of the fundamental or as a percentage of
the rms values. The harmonic magnitude and angles are stored in a set of
registers: 4002–4447. The circuit monitor updates the values in these registers
over a 10-metering update cycle period. During the time that the circuit
monitor is refreshing harmonic data, the circuit monitor posts a value of 0 in
register 2037. When the whole set of harmonic registers is updated with new
data, the circuit monitor posts a value of 1 in register 2037. The circuit
monitor can be configured to hold the values in these registers for up to 60
metering update cycles once the data processing is complete.

There are three operating modes for harmonic data processing: disabled,
voltage only, and voltage and current. Because of the extra processing time
necessary to perform these calculations, the factory default operating mode
is disabled.

Write to the following registers to configure the harmonic data processing:

STATUS INPUT PULSE When equipped with an I/O module, the circuit monitor can count pulses
DEMAND METERING from an external source, such as a watthour meter equipped with a pulse
initiator. This allows the circuit monitor to keep track of demand information
by counting pulses.

The circuit monitor provides ten input pulse demand channels (see figure
9-5). Each channel maintains pulse count data taken from one or more status
inputs assigned to that channel. For each channel, the circuit monitor main-
tains the following information:
• Present Interval Pulse Count—the number of pulses counted so far during
the present interval.
• Last Completed Interval Pulse Count—the number of pulses counted
during the last completed interval.
• Peak Interval Pulse Count—the maximum number of pulses counted
during a completed interval since the last power demand reset.
• Date/Time of Peak—the date and time of the peak interval pulse count
(described above) since the last power demand reset.
For each channel, utility registers are provided which can be defined by
custom application software as storage locations for:
• Units—for example, kWH, kVARH, or kVAH.
• Weight factor—a weight factor for each pulse. For example, you might
define that each pulse is equal to 10.0 kW.
• Scale Code—a scale factor to indicate what power of 10 to apply to the
weight factor

The pulse demand interval can be chosen to synchronize all channels with
the power demand interval (block only), the incremental energy interval, a
status input transition, or by external communications.

Pulse Counting Example Figure 9-5, page 79, shows how you might apply the pulse demand metering
feature. In the example, channels 1, 2 have been assigned to count pulses
from inputs S1 and S2, respectively. Channel 10 has been assigned inputs S1
and S2. Therefore, channel 10 will totalize the pulses from S1 and S2.

APPENDIX C—CALCULATING LOG FILE SIZES

This appendix tells how to calculate the approximate size of log files. To see
if the log files you’ve set up will fit in the available logging memory, calcu-
late the size of each event log, data log, waveform capture log, and extended
event capture log using the worksheet on the following page. Then sum all
log files to find the total space required. The total space required must be
smaller than the numbers listed below:*
• CM-2150 and CM-2250 (standard, -512k, -1024k) —Sum of event log file
and all data log files for standard, -512k, and -1024k must be smaller than
51,200, 313,344, and 575,488, respectively.
• CM-2350 and CM-2450 (standard, -512k, -1024k)—Sum of event log file,
waveform capture log file, extended event capture, and all data log files
for standard, -512k, and -1024k must be smaller than 51,200, 313,344, and
575,488, respectively.
• CM-2452—Sum of event log file, waveform capture log file, extended
event capture, and all data log files must be smaller than 182,272.

Note: The log file worksheet will provide a close approximation of the required
memory allocation. The memory allocation worksheet results may differ slightly
from actual memory allocation requirements.

Total All Log Files

12. Add lines 1, 9, 10, and 11. For standard CM-2150s, CM-2250s,
CM-2350s, and CM-2450s, the total cannot exceed 51,200. For
CM-2452s, the total cannot exceed 182,272. For models with
the -512k option, the total cannot exceed 313,344. For models
with the -1024k option, the total cannot exceed 575,488. 12. _____

➀ The CM-2150 does not provide waveform capture. The CM-2250 can store one 4-cycle waveform capture and one 12-cycle event capture,
but these are stored in separate memory locations and do not affect the amount of memory available for event and data logging.

 Appendix D—Alarm Setup Information

APPENDIX D—ALARM SETUP INFORMATION

The circuit monitor is designed to handle a wide range of metering require-

ments. To handle very large and very small metering values, the circuit
monitor uses scale factors to act as multipliers. These scale factors range from
.001 up to 1000 and are expressed at powers of 10—for example, 0.001 = 10-3.
These scale factors are necessary because the circuit monitor stores data in
registers which are limited to integer to values between -32767 and +32767.
When a value is either larger than 32767, or is a non-integer, it is expressed as
an integer in the range of +/-32767 associated with a multiplier in the range
of 10-3 to 103. For more information on scale factors see Setting Scale Factors
for Extended Metering Ranges in Chapter 9.

When POWERLOGIC application software is used to set up alarms, it

automatically handles the scaling of pickup and dropout setpoints.

When alarm setup is performed from the circuit monitor’s front panel, the
user must:
• determine how the corresponding metering value is scaled, and
• take the scale factor into account when entering alarm pickup and
dropout settings.

Pickup and dropout settings must be integer values in the range of -32,767 to
+32,767. For example, to set up an under voltage alarm for a 138 kV nominal
system the user must decide upon a setpoint value, and then convert it into
an integer between -32,767 and +32,767. If the under voltage setpoint were
125,000 V, this would typically be converted to 12500 x 10 and entered as a
setpoint of 12500.

SCALING ALARM This section is for users who do not have POWERLOGIC software and must
SETPOINTS set up alarms from the circuit monitor front panel. It tells how to properly
scale alarm setpoints.

The circuit monitor is equipped with a 6-digit LED display and a two LED’s
to indicate “Kilo” or “Mega” units, when applicable. When determining the
proper scaling of an alarm setpoint first view the corresponding metering
value. For example, for an “Over Current Phase A” alarm, view the Phase A
Current. Observe the location of the decimal point in the displayed value and
determine if either the “Kilo” or “Mega” light is turned on. This reading can
be used to determine the scaling required for alarm setpoints.

The location of the decimal point in the displayed quantity indicates the
resolution that is available on this metering quantity. There can be up to 3
digits to the right of the decimal point, indicating whether the quantity is
stored in a register as thousandths, hundredths, tenths, or units. The “Kilo”
or “Mega” LED indicates the engineering units—Kilowatts or Megawatts—
that are applied to the quantity. The alarm setpoint value must use the same
resolution as shown in the display.

For example, consider a power factor alarm. If the 3-phase average power
factor is 1.000—meaning that the power factor is stored in thousandths—
enter the alarm setpoints as integer values in thousandths. Therefore, to
define a power factor setpoint of 0.85 lagging, enter -850 (the “-” sign indi-
cates lag).

For another example, consider a “Phase A-B Undervoltage” alarm. If the

VA-B reading is displayed as 138.00 with the Kilo LED turned on, then enter
the setpoints in hundredths of kilovolts. Therefore, to define a setpoint of
125,000 volts, enter 12,500 (hundredths of kV). To arrive at this value, first
convert 125,000 volts to 125.00 kilovolts; then multiply by 100.

ALARM TYPE DEFINITIONS

Alarm Type Alarm Description Alarm Operation

A Over Value Alarm If the test register value exceeds the setpoint long enough to satisfy the
pickup delay period, the alarm condition will be true. When the value in the
test register falls below the dropout setpoint long enough to satisfy the
dropout delay period, the alarm will dropout. Pickup and Dropout setpoints
are positive, delays are in seconds.
B Under Value Alarm If the test register value is below the setpoint long enough to satisfy the
pickup delay period, the alarm condition will be true. When the value in the
test register rises above the dropout setpoint long enough to satisfy the
dropout delay period, the alarm will dropout. Pickup and Dropout setpoints
are positive, delays are in seconds.
C Phase Loss, Current The unbalance current alarm will occur when the percentage of the
smallest phase current divided by the largest phase current is below the
percentage pickup value, and remains at or below the pickup value long
enough to satisfy the specified pickup delay in seconds. When the
percentage of the smallest phase current divided by the largest phase
current remains above the dropout value for the specified dropout delay
period, the alarm will dropout. Pickup and Dropout setpoints are positive,
delays are in seconds.
D Phase Loss, Voltage The Phase Loss Voltage alarm will occur when any one or two phase
voltages (but not all) fall to the pickup value and remain at or below the
pickup value long enough to satisfy the specified pickup delay. When all of
the phases remain at or above the dropout value for the dropout delay
period, or when all of the phases drop below the specified phase loss
pickup value, the alarm will dropout. Pickup and Dropout setpoints are
positive, delays are in seconds.
E Lagging P.F. The Lagging Power Factor alarm will occur when the test register value
becomes more lagging than the pickup setpoint (i.e. closer to -0.010) and
remains more lagging long enough to satisfy the pickup delay period.
When the value becomes equal to or less lagging than the dropout
setpoint (i.e. closer to 1.000) and remains less lagging for the dropout
delay period, the alarm will dropout. Pickup setpoint must be negative.
Dropout setpoint can be negative or positive. Enter setpoints as integer
values representing power factor in thousandths. For example, to define a
dropout setpoint of -0.5, enter -500. Delays are in seconds.
F Leading P.F. The Leading Power Factor alarm will occur when the test register value
becomes more leading than the pickup setpoint (i.e. closer to 0.010) and
remains more leading long enough to satisfy the pickup delay period.
When the value becomes equal to or less leading than the dropout
setpoint (i.e. closer to 1.000) and remains less leading for the dropout
delay period, the alarm will dropout. Pickup setpoint must be positive.
Dropout setpoint can be positive or negative. Enter setpoints as integer
values representing power factor in thousandths. For example, to define a
dropout setpoint of -0.5, enter -500. Delays are in seconds.
G Over Power Demand The over power demand alarms will occur when the test register’s
absolute value exceeds the pickup setpoint and remains above the pickup
setpoint long enough to satisfy the pickup delay period. When the absolute
value drops to below the dropout setpoint and remains below the setpoint
long enough to satisfy the dropout delay period, the alarm will dropout.
Pickup and Dropout setpoints are positive, delays are in seconds.

H Over Lagging Average P.F. The Over lagging 3-phase Average P.F. will occur when the test register is
less leading than the pickup setpoint and remains less leading for the
pickup delay period. When the value becomes less lagging than the
dropout setpoint and remains less lagging for the dropout delay, the alarm
will dropout. If a leading P.F. is selected for the pickup setpoint (that is, a
positive P.F.), then the alarm will be active for any lagging P.F. or for any
leading P.F. between the pickup setpoint and unity. Pickup and Dropout
setpoints can be positive or negative; delays are in seconds. Enter
setpoints as integer values representing power factor in thousandths. For
example, to define a dropout setpoint of -0.5, enter -500.
Note: This alarm condition is based on the average power factor over the
last demand interval—not instantaneous power factor.
I Under Power The Under power alarm will occur when the test register’s absolute value
is below the pickup setpoint and remains below the pickup setpoint long
enough to satisfy the pickup delay period. When the absolute value rises
above the dropout setpoint and remains above the setpoint long enough to
satisfy the dropout delay period, the alarm will dropout. Pickup and
Dropout setpoints are positive, delays are in seconds.
J Over Reverse Power The over reverse power alarm will occur when the test register’s absolute
value exceeds the pickup setpoint and remains above the pickup setpoint
long enough to satisfy the pickup delay period. When the absolute value
drops to below the dropout setpoint and remains below the setpoint long
enough to satisfy the dropout delay period, the alarm will dropout. This
alarm will only hold true for Reverse Power conditions, i.e. any positive
power value will not cause the alarm to occur. Pickup and Dropout
setpoints are positive, delays are in seconds.
K Phase Reversal Once enabled the phase reversal alarm will occur whenever the phase
voltage waveform rotation differs from the default phase rotation. It is
assumed that an ABC phase rotation is normal. If a CBA normal phase
rotation is normal, the user should reprogram the circuit monitor’s phase
rotation from ABC (default) to CBA phase rotation. The pickup and
dropout setpoints and delays for phase reversal do not apply.
L Status Input Transitions Off to On The Status Input transitions alarms will occur whenever the status input
changes from off to on. The alarm requires no pickup or dropout setpoints
or delays. The Alarm will dropout when the status input changes back to
off from on. The pickup and dropout setpoints and delays do not apply.
M Status Input Transitions On to Off The Status Input transitions alarms will occur whenever the status input
changes from on to off. The alarm requires no pickup or dropout setpoints
or delays. The alarm will dropout when the status input changes back to
on from off. The pickup and dropout setpoints and delays do not apply.
N End Of Interval/Update Cycle The End of Interval alarms mark the end of an interval, or update cycle.
The pickup and dropout setpoints and delays do not apply.
O Power-Up/Reset The Power-Up/Reset alarm marks any time the circuit monitor powers up
or resets. The pickup and dropout setpoints and delays do not apply.
P Over Analog The Over Analog alarms will occur whenever the test register value is
more positive than the pickup setpoint (or less negative) and remains
greater than the pickup long enough to satisfy the pickup delay. When the
value becomes less positive than the dropout setpoint (or more negative)
and remains below the setpoint long enough to satisfy the dropout delay,
the alarm will dropout. Pickup and Dropout setpoints can be positive or
negative, delays are in seconds.

Q Under Analog The Under Analog alarms will occur whenever the test register value is
less positive than the pickup setpoint (or more negative) and remains less
than the pickup long enough to satisfy the pickup delay. When the
becomes more positive than the dropout setpoint (or less negative) and
remains above the setpoint long enough to satisfy the dropout delay, the
alarm will dropout. Pickup and Dropout setpoints can be positive or
negative, delays are in seconds.
R Voltage/Current Swell The Voltage and Current Swell alarms will occur whenever the continuous
RMS calculation is above the pickup setpoint and remains above the
pickup setpoint for the specified number of cycles. When the continuous
RMS calculations fall below the dropout setpoint and remain below the
setpoint for the specified number of cycles, the alarm will drop out. Pickup
and Dropout setpoints are positive, delays are in cycles.
S Voltage/Current Sag The Voltage and Current Sag alarms will occur whenever the continuous
RMS calculation is below the pickup setpoint and remains below the
pickup setpoint for the specified number of cycles. When the continuous
RMS calculations rise above the dropout setpoint and remain above the
setpoint for the specified number of cycles, the alarm will drop out. Pickup
and Dropout setpoints are positive, delays are in cycles.
T Suspended Sag/Swell The suspended sag/swell alarm will occur whenever an excessive amount
of current or voltage sag/swell alarms occur, typically due to erroneous
alarm setpoints. If more than six of any one type of sag or swell alarm
occurs within 500 ms, the disturbance monitoring detection in the circuit
monitor will be suspended for approximately 8 seconds. The disturbance
detection will then resume. If the disturbance detection is immediately
suspended a second time, the user will have to clear register 2038 and re-
enable the sag/swell alarms.

 Appendix E—Reading and Writing Registers from the Front Panel

APPENDIX E—READING AND WRITING REGISTERS FROM THE FRONT PANEL

The circuit monitor provides four setup modes: Configuration mode,

Resets mode, Alarm/Relay mode, and Diagnostics mode. (See The Setup
Mode in Chapter 4 of the Circuit Monitor Installation and Operation Bulletin for
a description of the first three of these modes.) This appendix tells how to
use the Diagnostics mode.

The Diagnostics mode lets you read and write circuit monitor registers, from
the front panel. This capability is most useful to users who 1) need to set up
an advanced feature which cannot be set up using the circuit monitor’s
normal front panel setup mode, and 2) do not have access to POWERLOGIC
software to set up the feature.

For example, the default operating mode for a circuit monitor relay output is
normal. To change a relay’s operating mode from normal to some other mode
(for example, latched mode), you’d need to use either POWERLOGIC
software or the Diagnostics setup mode.

Note: Use this feature with caution. Writing an incorrect value, or writing to
the wrong register could cause the circuit monitor to operate incorrectly.

To read and/or write registers, complete the following steps:

1 Press the MODE button until the red LED next to [Setup] is lit.
The circuit monitor displays “ConFig.”
2. Press the down arrow SELECT METER [Value] button until “diAg” is
displayed.
3. Press the PHASE [Enter] button to select the Diagnostics mode.
The circuit monitor displays the password prompt “P - - - -.”
4. Enter the master password.
To enter the password, use the SELECT METER [Value] buttons to
increase or decrease the displayed value until it reaches the password
value. Then press the PHASE [Enter] button.
The circuit monitor display alternates between “rEg No” (an abbrevia-
tion for register number) and “1000” (the lowest available register
number).
5. Use the SELECT METER [Value] buttons to increase or decrease the
displayed register number until it reaches the desired number.
6. Press the PHASE [Enter] button.
The circuit monitor reads the register, then alternately displays the
register number (in the format r.xxxx) and the register contents (as a
decimal value). If you are viewing a metered value, such as voltage, the
circuit monitor updates the displayed value as the register contents
change. (Note that scale factors are not taken into account automatically
when viewing register contents.)

7. To read another register, press the MODE button, then repeat steps 5 and
6 above.
8. To write to a register, continue with step 9 below.
Note: Some circuit monitor registers are read/write, some are read only. You
can write to read/write registers only.
9. Use the SELECT METER [Value] buttons to increase or decrease the
displayed register number until it reaches the register you’d like to write.
10. Press the PHASE [Enter] button.
The circuit monitor alternately displays the register number and the
register contents (as a decimal value).
11. Use the SELECT METER [Value] buttons to increase or decrease the
displayed decimal value until it reaches the value you’d like to write.
If you’ve accidentally selected a read only register, the circuit monitor will
not allow you to change the value.
12. Press the MODE button.
The circuit monitor displays “No.”
13. To abort the register write, press the PHASE [Enter] button.
14. To write the value, press the up arrow SELECT METER [Value] button to
change from “No” to “Yes.” Then press the PHASE [Enter] button.
The display flashes, indicating that the value has been written, then
returns to the register number.
15. To write another register, repeat steps 9–14 above.
16. To leave the Diagnostics mode, press the MODE button while the circuit
monitor displays “rEg No.”

Note: You can use the diagnostics mode to execute commands using the circuit
monitor’s command interface. First, write the desired values to the command
parameter registers. Then, write the code to execute the command. See The
Command Interface in Chapter 9 for a description of the command interface.
