Question no.1 (ask on 02/06/2014) : How can I adjust the measurement acquisition interval on the F407 and F607 clamps?
answered on 02/06/2014 :
At startup, press 2nd + W. This will modify the recording interval in the EEPROM. The default value is 60 and the possible values range from 1 second to 600 secondes (i.e. 10 min).
Question no.2 (ask on 02/06/2014) : What is the Bluetooth communication code of the F607 and F407 to be entered when one of these clamps is first used with the associated PAT data retrieval software?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
For the first connection, you must enter the code 0000 in the Bluetooth manager window. Communication is then established automatically.
Question no.3 (ask on 02/06/2014) : How can I perform a Factory Reset on the F407 & F607 clamps?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
To return to the default configuration, enter the following Key-Switch combination: 2nd + A
Question no.4 (ask on 02/06/2014) : How can I erase the memory of the F407 and F607 clamps?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
To delete recordings from the EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), press 2nd + Ohm when you power up the clamps. No confirmation will be requested.
Question no.1 (ask on 26/03/2014) : How can I check whether my PEL is correctly connected to the electrical network?
answered on 26/03/2014 :
To check whether your sensors are connected correctly, the PEL Transfer software gives you access to the Fresnel diagram, in the "real-time data" section. This provides information on the connection of the voltage clamps and current sensors.
Question no.2 (ask on 02/06/2014) : How can I find out the status of the PEL's memory?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
In the "Configure the instrument" menu under the "Recording" tab, you can check the status of the SD card. This shows you the memory used and the memory remaining. It should be noted that the PEL can be equipped with an SD card of up to 32 GB. The card delivered as standard has a capacity of 2 GB.
Question no.1 (ask on 26/03/2014) : Is it possible to connect different thermocouples simultaneously to an L642?
answered on 26/03/2014 :
The L642 is a temperature logger equipped with two input channels for J, K, T, N, E, R or S thermocouples. The sensors on these two channels must be similar. It is not possible to connect different thermocouples simultaneously to the L642 for recording.
Question no.1 (ask on 02/06/2014) : The HandScope is specified as CAT III 600 V. Can I safely measure a voltage in my electrical distribution cabinet while simultaneously measuring the power supply of my 230 V power socket on another feeder?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
The power supply of your electrical distribution cabinet is three-phase so you are in CAT III with 600 V in relation to the earth in general, whereas your 230 V socket is CAT II. The HANDSCOPE proposes channels isolated from the earth and from one another up to 600V RMS in rfelation to the earth, so you can compare these two measurement points without worrying about any hazards.
Question no.2 (ask on 02/06/2014) : How can I mask one channel on the Handscope ?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
Doubleclick on channel A, B or M to mask the required channel. To unmask it it, click on the required channel for 2 seconds.

Question no.1 (ask on 02/06/2014) : How can I measure the consumption of my single-phase 22 kVA motor with the HandScope ?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
We propose a miniFLEX MA100 clamp for the 100 A current measurement on one of the channels and for direct 230 V voltage measurement on the other channel. If you select multimeter mode with the power function, you can choose your single-phase assembly. You then obtain an active power measurement in VA and, if you select "SURV", you obtain the MIN/MAX/AVG values and the trend of this power value.
Question no.1 (ask on 02/06/2014) : What values should I enter for NOCT and GAMMA in the Green Test FTV 100?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
NOCT corresponds to the nominal operating temperature of the cell. GAMMA is the power coefficient in relation to the PV module's temperature. These two values are supplied by the solar-panel manufacturers.
Question no.1 (ask on 02/06/2014) : With the RayCAm models, what is the difference between the .CCD and .SAT files?
answered on 01/01/1970 :
You may obtain 2 different files if the camera provides the real image as well as the infrared image. The .CCD files are "real image" files, while the .SAT files are "infrared image" files.
