Reduction of downtime
Minimizing downtime is critical to the profitability every operation. Unex-
pected power outages and having key pieces of equipment shut down
suddenly is expensive due to the time required to find the source of the
problem, correct it, and get production started again. The loss of product
adds additional expense. The key is to identify potential problems and
correct them proactively. For example, the current on a critical motor may

Mounting Flexibility
The power meter’s small size and variety of mounting configurations allow
it to be readily installed in new equipment or retrofit into existing equipment.
The power meter module can be mounted onto a
35mm DIN rail, or it can be mounted on any flat
surface using its four mounting feet. For added
simplicity in retrofit installations, the panel
mounting hole patterns for both the power meter
module and the optional power meter display
match the conventional 4-inch ammeter/voltme-
ter spacing so the meter and the display can be
mounted back-to-back on opposite sides of a
panel surface. In metering installations of 600 V

and below, the power meter provides additional
savings in both cost and mounting space by eliminating the need for PTs
and control power transformers.
Versatile Display
The optional power meter display mounts in the same space as a conven-
tional 4-inch ammeter and is connected to the power
meter module with a communication cable. With the
2-line by 16-character LCD display, the user can
view metering data, and access the password

Waveform Capture
Square D pioneered the concept of “waveform capture.” Circuit monitors
use a patented, high-speed sampling technique to sample 64 times per
cycle on all current and
voltage signals simulta-
neously. The captured
waveforms are stored in
the circuit monitor
memory for retrieval
and display by POW-
ERLOGIC application
software. Waveform
captures are triggered
internally or externally.
A personal computer
can send a signal over
the communications
POWERLOGIC software can show all phase voltage network or through the
and current waveforms simultaneously, or a single optical communications
waveform with a data block containing harmonics port. An external signal,
through the 31st. for example, from an
overcurrent relay, can
be received through a high-speed input. The waveform capture can also be
triggered internally by any of over 100 user-defined alarm conditions,
including high or low power factor, %THD, or phase loss.
Sag/Swell Detection
The circuit monitor can continuously monitor for sags and swells on any
metered voltage or current. This feature can help detect and analyze
troublesome voltage disturbances that can cause costly equipment down
time. The circuit monitor detects sags and swells based on user-defined
setpoints and delays (in cycles). When the circuit monitor detects a voltage
or current disturbance, it performs an event capture to record the distur-
bance. This capture is configurable for 12, 24, 36, 48, or 60 cycles. It is
performed using the same patented, 64 samples-per-cycle sampling rate
as the waveform capture. The user selects the number of pre-event cycles,
ranging from 2 to 10 cycles. Thus, the event capture shows the circuit both
before and after the disturbance. The event can be date and time stamped
to the millisecond, and recorded in the event log.
Mounting Options
POWERLOGIC software can display sag/swell data
In addition to the standard flush mounting, several other mounting options captured by the circuit monitor. This screen shows
are available. For applications requiring an indoor general purpose surface a voltage sag experienced from a single-phase

Control
SMS-3000 software supports manual control of relay output contacts. Only
users with the appropriate user privilege level can access this feature,
avoiding accidental or unauthorized usage. Remote-manual control of
operations, such as initiating a start-up or a load shedding shutdown
sequence, can be performed through the software.
Event Recording
SMS uses event recording to track events in your system, from power
outages to setup changes to manual control. All system-user actions are
logged to the Event Log, which may be viewed, printed, or cleared at any
time. The Event Log is sortable by field, including device, date/time, type
of event, and user name. This aids in future troubleshooting of your system
by showing all information.
Functions/Alarms
SMS supports software alarms for digital and analog inputs in addition to
devices that have onboard alarm/event capabilities. Analog and digital
alarm conditions are set up once, then applied to the desired devices and
adjusted individually as needed. Conditional logic is also possible when
custom quantities are set as a digital alarm by defining bits in a register.
Analog alarm conditions can be set in five condition states (Highest, High,
Normal, Low, and Lowest). Each alarm condition can be set to a separate
severity level. When an alarm condition is detected, it is broadcast across
the entire SMS-3000 network logged in alarm log, and can initiate auto-
matic tasks on the POWERLOGIC network server PC.
Resets
SMS supports various resets for all supported device types. For example, Sixty consecutive cycles of waveform display show swell and
circuit monitor minimums and maximums, peak demand currents, and two sags.
Disturbance Monitoring
Harmonics—which can lead to increased neutral currents, excessive
capacitor currents, or transformer and motor failure—can be displayed
through the software. POWERLOGIC circuit monitors use a high-speed
digital sampling technique to monitor the circuit voltages and currents.
Circuit waveforms and harmonic content through the 31st harmonic can be
captured and stored for later use.
Waveform Analysis
Waveform information can also be displayed in a “Data Block” format,
which includes odd and even harmonic magnitudes, crest factors, and
percent total harmonic distortion (%THD) as defined in IEEE-519. Wave- Current and voltage waveforms can be viewed simultaneously
or individually, and can be printed. A data block of harmonic
forms can be further analyzed using waveform analysis software. information can also be displayed for 4-cycle waveforms.

Groups
Selecting devices by function, area, or electrical organization is simplified
by the configuration of groups. The group feature allows devices and
quantities to be organized logically, each with a unique name.
Customization
SMS is easy to customize, including the ability to create custom tables and
add custom quantities. Custom quantities can be any value read from a
POWERLOGIC device, a metered value from another utility (gas, water,
air, etc.), or a dynamic data exchange (DDE) quantity from another
application.
System Manager software can be easily customized by adding
new devices and quantities, and creating custom tables like
the one shown. Custom Tables
New tables can be created through a wizard-type user interface. Simply
select multiple devices and the quantity to be displayed, or select a single
device with multiple quantities, and the table will be generated. There is
also an advanced custom table utility that allows complete user flexibility of
the formatting, object embedding, and mathematical manipulation for
viewing of a single- or multiple-page table or graph.

Easy Configuration
Both the System Manager Ethernet driver and gateway are easily config-
ured and secured. Standard dialog box setup screens for communicating
with the gateway reside in System Manager. The gateway has an onboard
setup utility that is easily configured via the RS-232 port using a standard
terminal emulator software program, such as Windows Terminal. The setup
utility contains all configuration parameters for the gateway as well as
diagnostic parameters. Additionally, an extensive help system is included in
the setup utility. All configuration information is stored in nonvolatile
memory and therefore, not affected on loss of control power.
Gateway and Network Integrity
Each serial port contains RS-485 biasing and surge protection circuitry to
ensure reliable operation where noise may be present from nonlinear
devices, electromagnetic induced equipment, or single capacitive coupling
of the power system voltages.
Easy Field Upgrades
As features are added to the system components–either in System
Manager, the gateway, or the end devices–the gateway can be easily
updated via the RS-232 port. This firmware upgrade is accomplished
without hardware replacement, lengthy system downtime, or system
reconfiguration.
Support for Existing POWERLOGIC Systems
The POWERLOGIC Ethernet Gateway supports routing into existing
SY/NET® network based systems. The RS-485 ports on the gateway can
be connected to another RS-485 port on the network interface module
(NIM, PNIM, etc.) making information from the SY/NET network available
over Ethernet. This approach benefits existing facilities where
POWERLOGIC systems are already in use. Users of existing Square D
networks can choose to augment their systems by using Ethernet as the
high-speed backbone.

POWERLOGIC Compatible
The digital relay is compatible with POWERLOGIC systems; therefore, it is
supported by POWERLOGIC software. The relay can share an RS-485
communications link with circuit monitors operating at a baud rate from
1200 to 19,200 bps. Digital relays can be daisy-chained with up to 32
POWERLOGIC devices over a 10,000 foot (3050 meter) span.
Communications Capabilities
Communicating versions of the
digital relay have remote capabilities
such as status monitoring, metering,
relay reset, and circuit breaker
operations. The digital relay has one
status input that can be used for
remote status monitoring; for
example, indicating circuit breaker
position. In addition, remote phase
and ground current metering, trip
event history, and data logging can
be performed using POWERLOGIC
software. Remote relay resets and
remote circuit breaker operations
can also be performed over the
communications network.
POWERLOGIC application software configured to display real-
time phase and ground currents, circuit breaker status, and trip
history in an easy-to-read, graphic format.
