Based on For parameter selection to base your condition on Parameter X Used to select the specific parameter from a previously selected group The selected parameter will be used as the X variable in the condition rules operation Magnitude Calculation Determines the way the condition engine will compute the resulting magnitude of change in accordance to its set of rules For example if defined a voltage change rule where now voltage X is 280V while its reference V is 230V the computed deviation now will be 21 this is the instant deviation but what happens if event continues and the next value sampled is 260V Now the deviation is only 13 so what value should be reported The Magnitude calculation field defines how the value is being computed It is either by saving the maximum deviation measured or by average in between all values measured during the event 272 www elspec Itd com October 2014 SMX 0618 0100 _ User Manual Portable BlackBox V1 3 When Power Meets Qualit t y Averaging Time Setting averaging time enables the user to extend the sampling interval For instance if user selected 3 phase differential V parameter the typical time is 200 ms per IEC 61000 4 30 Yet if the user change it to 3sec it means the value will be averaged and a sample will be taken only every 3 seconds meaning that quick rapid change of voltage will be smoothed by the averaging operation and would not

Time Synchronization The Portable BLACKBOX contains a Time Synchronization module This module maintains amp tracks time that is being used by the entire BLACKBOX system and specifically by the PQZIP engine for storing continuous waveform recordings at an accurate time stamp This allows you to compare amp analyze time synchronized data recorded by any number of BLACKBOX devices within a particular site or across many sites The time sources are supported by Primary or Alternative SNTP Network Server The Server is an external server machine that provides SNTP Clients such as a BLACKBOX or a PC a time over IP network using SNTP standard protocol Time Sync supports two SNTP Servers The first is acting as primary and the second is an alternative in case the primary is not available SNTP server is identified by an Internet IP address The BLACKBOX is basically acting as an SNTP Client that initiates time requests towards SNTP servers However the BLACKBOX also acts as an SNTP time server and therefore it can respond and provide time for other BLACKBOX units that are configured to its SNTP server GPS Receiver The unit receives satellite signals amp therefore requires special installation with a sky view or transponder from a GPS receiver with a sky view A GPS unit provides location amp time information via a serial port typically RS232 RS485 communication port to the BLACKBOX The GPS option is for remote sites where internet intr
