The Nominal Values screen allows you to select frequency synch options, including
channel source (Va, Vd, Ia, Id), speed of response (Standard - Utility Power Line, Fast -
Local Generator or Internal), and frequency sync min/max range.

STEP 1: Press the Nominal &
Frequency tab or from the Wiring
Config screen, press Next.
Nominal values appear as you
prepare the instrument to record data.
• If the computed nominal values
are acceptable without change,
press the Monitor Mode tab or
press Next. Go to page 4-21.
• To set the parameters to track
frequency of a monitored
system, check the following:

• To enter a new internal
Frequency, Voltage and/or
Current value, press the
corresponding field and enter a
new value using the numeric
keypad.
NOTE: Always enter a nominal
frequency that matches your line
frequency. This ensures that if
external sync is lost, there will be
a corresponding internal sync.
Profile
This is the tracking rate of the
PLL circuitry to changes in
frequency.
• Standard (Utility Power Line)
is a slow 0.01 Hz per second
rate of change response.
• Fast (Local Generator) is a 0.1
Hz per second rate of change
response.
• Internal uses the nominal
frequency when making
measurements where no
reference signal is available.
NOTE: Make sure that the nominal values
computed by HDPQ Xplorer are correct.
Nominal values are used as basis for setting
default thresholds and other parameters for
circuit monitoring.
