5.2.4.2 OSCILLOGRAPHY SETTINGS
These settings (“Setpoint > Product Setup > Oscillography”) are described in Table 5–11:
Table 5–11: OSCILLOGRAPHY SETTINGS
Function Permission (Function): Enabling this setting allows to create an oscillography record when the “TRIGGER
OSCILLO” signal is activated.
Trigger Position: This setting defines the prefault data (in percentage) stored every time a new oscillo is
produced.
Sampling Rate: This setting defines the sampling rate of the oscillography capture. Please see the
example below.
Maximum Number of Oscillos (Max. Number Osc.):
1 to 20 oscillography records can be selected. The capacity of each record is = 1Mbyte
/ Max. Number Osc. This capacity is divided in 38 bytes (9 measurements * 4 bytes/
measurement + 2 digital bytes) per stored sample. Please refer to example below.
Automatic Overwrite: This setting allows chained oscillographies during the fault (TRIGGER OSCILLO signal
activated). The maximum allowed value to be stored as a chained oscillography is 1
Mbyte. In this case, even if the trip continues during a time longer than the associated
1 Mbyte of memory, the relay will stop storing the oscillography in RAM memory until
the complete record has been saved in non-volatile memory. The oscillography
module will be reset once the data has been completely stored in Flash memory and
the TRIGGER OSCILLO state is deactivated.
Snapshot Events: This setting enables or disables snapshot event generation for the oscillography
element.
EXAMPLE
For a Max. Number Osc. of 4, each record will store 1Mbyte / 4 = 262144 bytes.
Therefore, the number of samples per oscillography record is 262144 bytes / 38 bytes = 6898 samples per stored oscillo.
If we set the relay to 3600 Hz as sampling rate , each record will store up to:
• 6898 / 72 = 95.78 signal cycles at 50 Hz as nominal frequency
• 6898 / 60 = 114.93 signal cycles at 60 Hz as nominal frequency
This value expressed in terms of time would be:
For 50 Hz: 95.78 cycles x 20 ms/cycle =1.915 seconds.
For 60 Hz: 114.93 cycles x 16.67 ms/cycle =1.915 seconds.
