PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES OF THE ANALOGUE OUTPUTS
Power retransmission by means of a 0-20mA analogue output.
It's necessary to measure a consumed power up to 100kW and retrans-
mit this value by means of a signal from 4 to 20 mA: the module to be
used is MOV2 (2x from 0 to 20mA), the instrument is to be programmed
as follows:
VARIABLE: W∑ (system active power).
MIN OUT: 20.0% means 4 mA. The calculation to be carried out is the fol-
lowing: (100*minimum output) / fullscale output =100*4mA/ 20mA=20%.
MAX OUT: 100.0% means 20mA. The calculation to be carried out is:
(100*maximum output) / fullscale output = 100*20mA/20mA= 100.
MIN INPUT: 0,0k; the multiple k,M,G can be selected on the instrument
according to the chosen VT and CT values.
MAX INPUT: 100.0k; the k, M, G multiples can be selected on the instru-
ment according to the selected VT and CT values.

Retransmission of the POWER FACTOR (PF) by means of the
0-20mA analog output.
It's necessary to retransmit the whole range of the allowed values for the
PF with a signal from 0 to 20mA. Particular attention must be paid to the
value of the PF variable which may vary from C0,001 and L0,000 (for each
phase): these values will be retransmitted and will then correspond to 0
and 20 mA. When the PF will have a value equal to 1, being in the mid-
dle between C0,001 and L0,000, the value of the output will correspond
to the middle of the scale, that is 10mA. As a consequence, the instru-
ment will have to be programmed as follows:
VARIABLE: PF L1 (or L2 or L3 or PF∑).
MIN OUT: 0,0%.
MAX OUT: 100,0%.
MIN INPUT: C0,001 (the C symbol shows a CAPACITIVE value).
MAX INPUT: L0,001 (the L symbol shows an INDUCTIVE value). L0,001
has been chosen as minimum value to be set in order to avoid any unde-
sirable swifting of the repeated outputs.
