12: Flicker and Analysis
3. The Nexus® 1252 meter with V-2 can use Historical Log 2 to record the results of
Flicker testing: you will see the top screen if EN50160/IEC61000-4-30 logging has
not been selected for the meter; you will see the bottom screen if it has already
been selected.
• To set up EN50160/IEC61000-4-30 recording, click Auto-Configure. Historical
Log 2 will now be used for EN50160/IEC61000-4-30 logging, only.
• If EN50160/IEC61000-4-30 recording is already active and you want to disable
it, click Enable Log 2. This will disable the EN50160/IEC61000-4-30 logging in
Historical Log 2. You can then configure Historical Log 2 normally. (See Chapter
