Note: Please identify the parameters and values listed below as accurately as possible. They serve as the basis for the internal calculation algorithm. The more exactly the requirements correspond to reality, the more accurate the maximum monitor can calculate.
Name
The name of the output and the switching stage.
Switch Off impulse is
With this parameter the switching behavior of the output is set. You can choose between On and Off. Choosing On, is in the case with the cut-off (shedding) of the output, a positive pulse (On) is sent.
With Off a negative pulse (off) is sent.
Switched power in [kW]
Here, the nominal power of the entered switching group associated to this device load.
Usage [%]
With the use determines to what percentage of the set power of the output in the correction calculation is received. The use defines the probability of power consumption, if the device load is on.
With a light bulb it is 100%, with a compressor perhaps only 40%.
Priority
Via this parameter, each output is assigned a ranking (priority) for inclusion in the priority sequence (controls switching off and on). The lowest priority is 0.
Note: When using the circular circuit (more than one output per priority), the settings for the temporal behaviour of the channels no longer apply.
Periods time out [min]
The lockout period is started at the beginning of each measurement period. The outputs for which one Blackout periods is set will be activated at the start of the new measurement period. During the blocking time the shutdown of the outputs is prevented, even at an exceeded trend rate of power. The Off-time measuring period will not start if the Minimum switch off time is still running.
Min. Cycle duration [min]
By this time, a minimum period of time after the reconnection of output is defined. In this Time period the output can not be switched off again.
Min.off time [min]
Minimum length of time which an output must be switched off at a power off.Through this Off-time measuring period is an all too frequent switching avoided and thus damage to devices.
Max off time [min]
By this time a maximum switch-off after shutdown of the output is the defined. The Output can be turned off for up to this time.
Emergency stop
Enabling this parameter, the output is added to the emergency stop. The Emergency shutdown is triggered for any disturbance of the maximum monitor. Outputs, in which the Emergency shutdown is enabled, are then switched off immediately. This is in case of a power supply failure, a power limit overshoot is prevented.
Block Output
Enabling this parameter will block this channel and it is not part of the calculation anymore.
