Powermonitor 3000 Unit Operations Chapter 3

Date and Time

You may use these parameters to set the power monitor’s internal
clock and calendar and configure the display format as
MM/DD/YYYY (default) or DD/MM/YYYY. The power monitor uses
its internal clock time-stamp entries in logs, oscillograms and transient
captures.

Display Mode Scroll Speed

This parameter controls how fast text that doesn’t fit in the window is
scrolled on the display module. Default is fast scrolling.

Watchdog Timeout Action

Configure this parameter to determine how the power monitor
responds if an internal watchdog timeout has occurred. This may
occur due to extreme environmental condition or internal operational
error. Choices include the following:

Halt - Restart the firmware, log an event, stop metering and
disable all functionality except display module and
communication.

Continue - Restart the firmware, log an event and resume
operation.

Default is Continue.

Network Demand / Time Configuration

The Ethernet Powermonitor 3000 unit supports demand period
synchronization via the Ethernet network. Demand period
synchronization makes use of UDP (User Datagram Protocol)
messaging, a simplified, low-level protocol that supports broadcasts. A
power monitor may be configured as a Master or a Slave. A Master
may be configured to receive an end-of-interval (EOI) signal either
from a dry contact connected to its Status Input 2 or via a Controller
Command write to the

Controller Command

table (see below). When

a Master receives an EOI input, it broadcasts an EOI message to any
units configured as Slaves.
