Note
• IfthefundamentalfrequencyofthePLLsourcecannotbemeasuredduetofluctuationsordistortion,
correct measurement results cannot be obtained. We suggest that you set the PLL source to the voltage,
which has relatively smaller distortion than the current.

Measured Harmonic Order
Youcansettheupperlimitofmeasuredharmonicorderintherangeof2to50.However,therange
varies depending on the fundamental (1st harmonic) frequency. This is because the upper limit of
harmonicsthatarecomputedvariesdependingonthefundamentalfrequency.Thedefaultvalueis50.
Example
• Upto50whenthefundamentalfrequencyis50Hz
• Upto4whenthefundamentalfrequencyis1.2kHz
