Chapter 8 Configuring Recorders

The PM180 is provided with a 256MB onboard non-volatile memory for data, event
and waveform recording.
Before using recorders, the device memory must be partitioned between log files.
The device memory is fully configurable; you can define how much memory to
allocate for each log file. If you want to change the factory settings, follow the
guidelines in the section below.

Configuring Device Memory

The PM180 memory can be partitioned for a total of 28 log files:

Event log

16 Data logs

8 Waveform logs

SOE log

IEEE 1159 or EN 50160 PQ log

Fault log

To view the device memory settings, select Memory/Log from the Meter Setup menu,
and then click on the Log Memory tab.

The following table shows available file options.
