Thhe selected range is eff ffective for different meeasurement modes, such as waveform display, d integrral measurem ment and harrmonic measu urement. Operation steps 1.In the t “Meter” innterface Presss the soft key y correspondiing to “V-RA ANGE” or “A A-RANGE”, and usee the knob orr “ ” to t select the voltage v or currrent range. 2.Press the “Enterr” key to conffirm the settin ng.

Voltage and a currennt range Sett the measurrement rangee according to the levell of the effeective value. When the volltage or curreent signal is input into th he input unit,, there are tw wo types of range: fixed andd automatic. Fixed rannge Sellect the requiired range frrom a numbeer of options. After selecction, the ran nge will not chaange with thhe input signnal. For the voltage rangge, when the crest facto or is 3, the maxximum optioon is “600V”” and the min nimum optionn is “15V”. W When the creest factor is 6, the t maximum m option is “3300V” and th he minimum m option is “77.5V”. Copyright © Itech Electro onics Co., Ltd. 8 Chapterr II Measuremeent Conditions NOTE d waveform and other non-sinusoidall wave signals, the accuracy During measuurement of the distortion of measuremeent can be improved by selecting the minimum m range on the premise that th he measured value does noot exceed the rannge. Auto-meeasuring sppan Thee range is sw witched autom matically acccording to thhe input signnal. The rang ge types for swiitching are thhe same as thhose of the fiixed range. Prinnciples of auutomatic rangge level increease: Thee range levell is increasedd when any one o of the folllowing condditions is satiisfied. Urms or Irm ms exceeds 110% of the current rangge setting. The crest factor f is 3. Thhe value Upk k or Ipk of thhe input signnal exceeds 330% of the current rannge setting. The crest factor f is 6. The T value Up pk or Ipk off the input signal exceedss 660 % of the currentt range settinng. Prinnciples of auutomatic rangge level decrease: Thee range levell is decreasedd when all off the followinng conditionns are satisfieed. Urms or Irm ms is less thaan or equal to t 30% of thee current meaasurement raange. The crest factor f is 3. The value Upk k or Ipk of thhe input signnal is less thaan 300% of the range at a the followiing level. The crest factor f is 6. Thhe value Upk k or Ipk of thhe input signnal is less thaan 600 % of the range at a the followiing level. NOTE The selected automatic a rangee may change when w the input waveform w is a ppulse waveform m of uncertain cycle. In this case, c the fixed range r should bee selected. 2.2 Setting off Measu urementt Interv val The timee for acquisittion of samppling data is determined d b the measuurement interrval during by measureement. The measurement m interval is determined d byy the data uppdating rate and a synchronnization sourrce. The syncchronization n source provvides referencce signals forr measureement, and thhe data updatting rate deteermines the updating u cyclle of samplin ng data. Measurem ment intervval The meaasurement innterval is deteermined by th he data updaating rate andd synchronization ssource. (see “2.3 “ Setting of o Filter and Crest Factorr” for specific settings) Synnchronizationn IT99121 adopts the t frequencyy measuremeent circuit to test the inpuut signal cyclle set in the measuremennt interval. The T measurem ment intervall is the integeer times of th he test cyccle. The meassured value of o IT9121 is calculated by averaging sampling daata in the meaasurement innterval. The reference r inp put signal useed for defininng the input signal meaasurement innterval is callled the synch hronization source. Measurement innterval for coonventional measurement m t The measuurement interrval of the refference input signal is the time from the t starting parrt of the risinng slope (or descending d s slope) througgh the zero po oint Copyright © Itech Electro onics Co., Ltd. 9 Chapterr II Measuremeent Conditions (intermediaate value of amplitude) a to o the ending point of the rising slope (or descendingg slope) throuugh the zero point (interm mediate value of amplitud de). However, the t measurem ment intervall which deterrmines the m maximum volltage or current is within w the ovverall data up pdating cyclee. Therefore, the measureement of Ipk+, Ipk-, Upk+, Upk--, Ucf and Icf calculated based on thee maximum voltage v and current alsoo adopts the data updatin ng cycle as thhe measurem ment interval. The rising or descendinng edge is sellected autom matically to pprolong the measuremeent interval.
