Harmonics
Setup Page
The number of options on this page may
vary depending on where you access
these settings.
This page is found in various places in
Dran-View.
Voltage/Current/Watts
These combo boxes contain possible harmonic scaling options.
"Absolute" will not scale the harmonics. They will be displayed
as volts/amps/watts if they were not measured as a percentage.
"%FND" will scale the harmonics to % of the own channel's
fundamental, and display harmonics as %. "%RMS" will scale
the harmonics to % of the RMS value of the same quantity, and
display harmonics as %. "%Scale" will scale the harmonics to %
of a user defined number, and display harmonics as %. If you
select "%Scale", the edit box next to the combo box will be
enabled. Enter a non-zero number to scale the harmonics in this
box. These settings will also affect instrument-generated
harmonics.
Harmonics Select how many harmonics you wish to calculate from the
combo box. The maximum number of possible harmonics is the
nominal samples per cycle divided by two, rounded down to the
nearest five. Note that harmonics calculations will take more time
the more harmonics you select. If you have DFT charts, phasors.
or text labels containing DFT data, changing the active event may
be experienced as slow. Decreasing this number may speed up
Dran-View.
Harmonics in
THD
Select how many harmonics to use in THD calculations. As a rule
of thumb (and some standards), you should use 40 harmonics for
50 Hz and 50 harmonics for 60 Hz.
