17 Vector measurement
17.1 Function
♦ The Vector measurement is a signal component for accurate
measurement and calculation of the magnitude and phase of a vector
(integer harmonic).
This is X
n
= X * n where
X
n
= Vector resp. centre frequency of the vector
n = Trigger frequency
X = Factor
♦ The Vector measurement, as a configuration interface, contains all the
necessary parameters for ther settings, e.g. Factor, Bandwidth, Max.
measurement time.
♦ The physical unit for vector measurement is determined by the
preceding component in the signal-flow chart, in particular by the
Sensor / Sensor(A/B) block.
♦ A vector measurement requires 2 sensor signals:
• A sensor for the measurement variable and
• A phase reference sensor (trigger signal).
♦ The result of the vector measurement after each cycle is updated
without any time delay. The current measurement (magnitude and
phase) can be read through the User Terminal.
♦ The current measurement can also be fed to downstream electronic
equipment through a DC-voltage analogue output.
♦ The measurement (magnitude and phase) can also be read through the
COM-interface of a downstream OPC-server.
♦ The measurement can be monitored through one or more Monitor
blocks for limit violation.
