The default value of AngleRCA is –55°. The parameter AngleROA gives the
angular distance from AngleRCA to define the directional borders.
A minimum current for the directional phase start current signal can be set.
IMinOpPhSel is the start level for the directional evaluation of IL1, IL2 and IL3.
The directional signals release the overcurrent measurement in the respective
phases if their current amplitudes are higher than the start level (IMinOpPhSel) and
the direction of the current is according to the set direction of the step.
If no blocking signals are active, the start signal will start the timer of the steps.
The time characteristic for each step can be chosen as definite time delay or an
inverse time delay characteristic. A wide range of standardized inverse time delay
characteristics is available. It is also possible to create a tailor made time
characteristic.
The possibilities for inverse time characteristics are described in section 
"Inverse
characteristics".
