● Low-current cutoff must be equal to or greater than the minimum trip current.
■ Definite time current must be greater than or equal to low-current cutoff and/or the minimum trip current.
▲ Definite Time Current 2 should be greater than or equal to Definite Time Current 1.
◆ Time should be less than Definite-Time 1.
▼ Accumulated value will reset to zero after the reset time has elapsed.
