Signal Strength. The Signal Strength indicator provides information on the quality of
the communication. It uses four different icons to indicate different signal strength levels:
• When there is no active communication:
• When the signal quality is poor (red):
• When the signal quality is acceptable (yellow):
• When the signal quality is good (green):
A numerical representation of the signal strength is also provided in units of dBm.
The greater the value (e.g. -69 is better than -87), the better the signal strength.
Main Caps Charge. This indicates the state of charge of the main power supply capaci-
tors inside the TripSaverII recloser.
The bar stays mostly unfilled during the configuration process, indicating only a
small amount of charge is needed by the control for configuration use. The blue color
indicator will start to fill the empty space as the main capacitors’ charge increases, e.g.
during functional testing.
The Main Caps Charge indicator is available for the Connected (online) mode or
when a snapshot file is open.
Connected To (or Snapshot From). “Connected To” is displayed for the Connected
(online) mode. It indicates the serial number of the TripSaver II recloser presently
connected.
“Snapshot From” is displayed when a snapshot file is open. It indicates the serial
number of the TripSaver II recloser from which the snapshot being viewed was saved.
See Figure 68.
