5.4 Breaker information
Here you will find the breaker catalog number and serial 
number, the trip unit style and serial number, as well as date 
of manufacture.
5.5 Real time data
The Real Time Data screens allow you to see the sensed 
information being evaluated by the trip unit.  Expand any of 
the groupings of information on this screen to see the data.  
All the currents, voltages, power, and energy can be set for a 
one-time view, click to refresh or automatic refresh.

From this screen you can also capture a 1-cycle waveform of 
the currents and voltages being sensed by the trip unit.  The 
capture can be viewed on-screen and then either converted 
to a PDF document or to one of several export formats.  You 
can trigger a waveform capture at any time using PXPM.
5.6 Event summaries
Any of the events that are logged by the trip unit can be 
viewed using this screen.  Each type of event is categorized 
and viewable in the order they occurred.  Events which 
capture a waveform also show an icon which can be used to 
view that waveform.
5.7 Reports
The software allows you to create a PDF file which contains 
information about the circuit breaker, its real time operating 
conditions, the events which have been recorded and the 
setpoints it is using.  You can also add your application infor-
mation details including customer name, plant/gear location 
identification, equipment condition, and general notes.
5.8 Application settings
Here you can change the software’s language and see the 
installed version.  This screen provides the important contact 
information for EatonCare technical support.  PXPM also has 
a feature that allows it to check for updates and download 
them from the Eaton website every time it runs.  We recom-
mend that you use this option to ensure that you always 
have the latest software features available to you.
5.9 PXPM feature licenses
The Application Settings screens also provide the mechanism 
to request value-added feature licenses.  These licenses can 
support a wide range of activities including testing sessions, 
waveform viewing, troubleshooting assistance, health analyt-
ics, and changing the rated current (I
n
