The manual you hold in your hands contains information and warnings
about the CVM-LC that the user should respect in order to guarantee
a proper operation of all the instrument functions and keep its safety
conditions.
Before powering the instrument for the first time, verify following points:

CVM-LC
The CVM-LC is an instrument which measures, calculates and displays all the
main electrical parameters at any electrical network (balanced or not). The
measuring is true RMS value, through three a.c. voltage inputs and three a.c. current
inputs (from Current Transformers .../ 5A).

3.- MODELS
The manual you hold in your hands contains information and warnings
that the user should respect in order to guarantee a proper operation
of all the instrument functions and keep its safety conditions. The
instrument must not be powered and used until its definitive assembly
on the cabinet’s door.
4.1.- Installation.
Before powering the instrument for the first time, verify following points:
Mounting:
Instrument is to be mounted on panel (cut-out 138+1 x 138+1 mm, as per DIN
43 700). All connections keep inside the cabinet.
Note that with the instrument powered on, the terminals could be dangerous to
touching and cover opening actions or elements removal may allow accessing
dangerous parts. Therefore, the instrument must not be used until this is completely
installed.
The instrument must be connected to a power supply circuit protected with gl
type (IEC 269 ) or M type fuses rated between 0.5 and 2 A. This circuit should be
provided with a circuit breaker or any equivalent element to connect (ON) or
disconnect (OFF) the instrument from the power supply network. The supply and
measuring voltage circuits will be both connected through a wire with a minimum
2
cross-section of 1 mm .
The line of the current transformer secondary will have a minimum cross-
section of 2,5 mm2.

IMPORTANT REMARK! if power = -0.01 is shown for any of the phases (codes 03,
09 and 15) and voltage and current are not zero for this phase, check out following
points:
- Assure that L1, L2 and L3 phases coincide in voltage and current.
- Correct polarity? Reverse the current transformer placed at this phase.
----- Supply network analyzer CVM-LC ------ User's manual --- Page No. 13
Whether the key " " is press, the next led will be on, so indicating that for
this screen CURRENT values of each phase are now shown.
Pressing again the key " " , the next led will be on, and the screen will
shown following three parameters, and so successively.
----- Supply network analyzer CVM-LC ------ User's manual --- Page No. 14
Max min
Pressing the "max" or "min" key, maximum or minimum values for the
parameters being shown by display, respectively, appear in screen.
This function is only valid while you keep pressing the "max" or "min" key. If
you stop pressing the key the instantaneous values will appear again after 5
seconds.
While showing maximum or minimum values the LED indicators will keep
blinking.
reset
Pressing the "reset" key the system is reset. This is equivalent to switch off
the power supply of the instrument. The maximum and minimum values recorded will
be automatically deleted from the internal memory.
If you are in the set-up process and press the "reset" key, you exit it without
saving any modification that you might have done (this event will depend on the set-
up section that is accessed when the reset action is carried out) and reset of the
system occurs.
----- Supply network analyzer CVM-LC ------ User's manual --- Page No. 15
For accessing the set-up menu the keys max & min must be
simultaneously pressed once the instrument is at the main screen.
When accessing the SET-UP, the message "SET-UP unlo " (1) is shown for
some seconds on screen, or, otherwise, the message "SET-UP loc" (2).
(1) Set-up UNLO (SET-UP unlocked ) : when the SET-UP is
accessed, configuration parameters can be either visualized and
modified.
(2) Set-up LOC (SET-UP locked ) : when the SET-UP is accessed,
configuration parameters can be visualized but cannot be modified .
Once into the SET-UP, use the keyboard to select different options and enter
required variables:
- The key validates de value and pass to the next menu.
- The key MAX permits to select among different options in a menu, or to
increase a digit when a variable is being entered.
- The key MIN permits to move the cursor along the digits.
Different options are following shown in a sequential mode:
U1 U12
U2 or U23
U3 U31
b) When you get in the display the desired option just press the " " key to
validate it and access to the next set-up option.
6.2.- Voltage display mode
This option permits the user to select the voltage display mode. That way, the
choice between viewing the voltage with one decimal digit or without decimals is
user-programmable.
SEt SEt
Udec ó Udec
no YES
No decimals 1 decimal digit
c) To select one of the voltage options just press the green key "max" and
both options will appear alternately.
d) When you get in the display the desired option just press the " " key to
validate it and access to the next set-up option.

- In case that a value higher than the maximum allowable value is validated
" ", the screen will blink and the previous set value will be kept in memory.
----- Supply network analyzer CVM-LC ------ User's manual --- Page No. 18
a) To enter or modify the value of the C.T.'s primary, just repeatedly press "max" to
increase the value of the blinking digit.
b) When the value in screen is the required, pass to the next digit by pressing "min",
so that the whole value can be set.
c) When the last digit blinks, pressing then "min" the first digit is again accessed, so
that set value can be modified if required.
NOTES:
- The secondary of the current transformers is not programmable. It is
automatically set at 5 A (... / 5 A ac)
- The primary current value to be set is also limited by the following
condition: The maximum allowable primary current value which can be set
is defined by the fact that the multiplication of the primary voltage value by
this primary current value cannot exceed 20,000,000.
Push the key " " and the following screens will appear by display:
Programming mode:
- "max" key: allows choosing the different available options.
- "min" key: allows the validation of the blinking digit and go forward to the
next digit (only for the "Pd Per xx" option).
- To pass to the next option press " ".
If you don't want to modify anything, just press the " " key three times
without modifying any value.

a) Fixed screen (choice is switch just pressing ): choice the initial screen to be
shown when the CVM-LC is powered (or when the CVM-LC is reset).
b) Rotary screens: all screens are successively shown at intervals of 5 s.
This option is noticed by means of some leds:

Note : the energy counter range is limited at 999.999.999 Wh , that is, when
the value of 1 GWh is reached, the counter is reset to zero.

Two modes for the harmonic distortion calculation can be selected:
a) d % : total value of the harmonic distortion referred to the fundamental value.
b) Thd % : total value of the harmonic distortion referred to the R.M.S. value.
- To select any option just press "max" to switch between the two available
options.
- Press " " to validate the choice. Since all set-up options have been
completed, the set-up is exited, all modifications are saved in memory, and the
running mode automatically starts up.

9.- MAINTENANCE
The CVM-LC does not require any special maintenance. No adjustment,
maintenance or repairing action should be done over the instrument open and
powered and, should those actions are essential, high-qualified operators must
perform them.
Before any adjustment, replacement, maintenance or repairing operation is
carried out, the instrument must be disconnected from any power supply source.
When any protection failure is suspected to exist, the instrument must be
immediately put our of service. The instrument’s design allow a quick replacement in
case of any failure.
- Being the CVM-LC powered off, simultaneously press " ", "max" and
"min" keys.
- Holding these keys pressed, powered the CVM-LC on.
When this option of the 2nd Setup menu is accessed, the following message
will be shown in screen during some seconds
