Using the APP Recorder 6-43
6.12.4 Saving RMS Data
You can save a time slice of RMS data to a file. You can open and view the file with the APP ClearView
program.
To Save RMS Data
1. In the APP Recorder window, from the Continuous Recording menu, point to RMS and then
click Save RMS Data
2. Complete the entry fields
3. Trend Check Box, checking the Trend box will create an RMS Comtrade file for all channels or
specified channels, including a Maximum, Minimum, and Average Voltage value for each Interval
over the period indicated.
Do you want to capture frequency data over a period of time, contingent on the number of days set
in the PAR General Settings Tab, Continuous Recording Freq + RMS + Phase, # of Days, , and
maintain a manageable file size?
If yes, click the Trend check box and enter an interval in minutes typically 1 minute is used.
At the bottom of the window, you can see the expected file size and the effect of interval
minutes selected.
If no, then skip to the next step
4. Click the OK button
6.12.5 Saving Phase Data
You can save a time slice of data to a file. You can open and view the file with the APP ClearView
program. You can also change the relative phase angle that is shown APP Recorder main window
(continuous metering window).
To Save Phase Data
1. In the APP Recorder window, from the Continuous Recording menu, point to Phase and then
click Save Phase Data.
2. Complete the entry fields
3. Click the OK button.
6.12.6 Saving RMS-Plus Phase Data
You can save a time slice of data that contains both continuous RMS values and continuous Phase values
to a file. You can open and view the file with the APP ClearView program. The data is displayed in
channel sequential order.
If you created a line group, then you can view power and impedance graphs for this
data time slice..
