Main Window - Icar 5LSA Notice D'utilisation

2.5 MAIN WINDOW

The main window displays simultaneously all the various measurements coming from the
controller, thus allowing an overall vision of the status of the power factor correction
panel.
All functions are accessible via pull-down menus, while the more frequently used func-
tions can be accessed on the toolbar.
Certain of these functions are locked and can only be made available after entering the
password, which can be modified by the user (at the first setup, the default password is
"ICAR").
The main window shows the following:
Three 7-segment display units indicating the current cosϕ, the preset cosϕ and the
−
average weekly power factor respectively.
A graphic representation of the current phase angle on the four quadrants.
−
Panels with voltage, current, ∆-kvar, capacitor overload and temperature, each one
−
with numeric indication, bargraph and, where available, readout of the MAX value re-
corded. If the control unit has been programmed with the Auto-Setup procedure, cer-
tain of these measurements will not be available.
A series of panels, one for each step, with the following information:
An icon representing the status (activated-disactivated) and function of the relay
−
(capacitor bank, fan control or overall alarm).
A box indicating the power in kvar of the step. Such box indicates the preset power
−
rating (programmed in the setup). If the control unit has been programmed with the
Auto-Setup procedure, the power rating of the step will not be available.
A box indicating the total number of operations of the step. Counting is held even
−
when the unit is switched off.
N.B.: The controller distributes the number of operations equally between the steps of
equal power. Hence it is normal that steps of different power have a different number
of operations.
A box indicating the total ON time of the step in hours-minutes. The ON time is held
−
even when the unit is switched off.
Lastly, the following is indicated on the status bar close to the bottom edge of the main
window, from left to right:
Model and revision of the controller connector
−
− Status of the serial communication (ONLINE = connection active, OFFLINE = connec-
tion not active)
Mode of operation of the controller (MANUAL / AUTOMATIC)
−
− Alarm status
Page updating time (rate of refresh)
−
Method of setup of the controller (None / Standard / Autosetup)
