S1 PQM SETUP CHAPTER 4: PROGRAMMING
data on all inputs are captured in the buffer on a switch D open transition. The number 
of cycles captured depends on the value specified in the 
TRACE MEMORY USAGE 
setpoint.
• TRACE MEMORY TRIGGER DELAY: In some applications it may be necessary to delay 
the trigger point to observe the data before the fault occurred. The PQM allows the 
trigger to be delayed by the amount of cycles set in this setpoint. Therefore, buffer will 
always contain the number cycles specified in this setpoint before the trigger point 
and the remaining space in the buffer is filled with the cycles after the trigger point.
• TRACE MEMORY TRIGGER RELAY: The relay selected here will be activated upon the 
occurrence of a Trace Memory Trigger. This relay will be cleared once the Trace 
Memory is re-armed.
See the application note in Section A.4: Triggered Trace Memory for additional details.
