Behaviour of the Fault Recorder
The Fault Recorder is triggered by the rising edge of the »Prot . Pickup« (General Pickup)
signal. (Note that »Prot . Pickup« (General Pickup) is an OR-connection of all pickup signals,
see ╚═▷ “4.1 »Prot« – General Protection Module”.) (Since the General Pickup signal
triggers the Fault Recorder one can say that the rst protection pickup triggers the Fault
Recorder.) The Fault Recorder is not triggered by functions that have been congured
as »Denition« = “Alarm” (see ╚═▷ “Denition (“Alarm ↔ Trip”) of a Protection Function”).
If the (General) Pickup is followed by a (general) Trip (signal »Prot . Trip«) then the Fault
Recorder updates all data. In this case all values describe the fault situation at the moment
of the trip.
