Step 4: Basic commissioning parameters set up (using PQF-Manager)

In order to set up the basic commissioning parameters with the PQF-Manager, navigate
to [/Welcome/Settings/Commissioning] (Cf.
menus of the PQF-Manager is given in
The complete commissioning must be done at the first installation of a filter system and
each time a filter unit is added to an existing filter system.
If the window or some of its items are locked (i.e. a small
present on the screen), the hardware and/or software lock has been engaged. Refer to
Section 7.4
the filter setting menus.
Note: In active filter systems consisting of more than one master, the PQF-Manager of
the master that has the control over the system has full functionality and the PQF-
Managers of the other master units have limited functionality. In practice, the functions
that are not enabled on these units are also locked and a
them.
In the commissioning window, the following basic parameters have to be specified:

· The network characteristics (Cf.
The parameters to enter are the nominal network voltage, network frequency and
filter synchronisation mode. The filter synchronisation mode shall normally not
be changed unless specifically instructed by the ABB service provider.
· The filter characteristics (Cf.
This consists of setting up the filter connection mode: 3-wire (no neutral
connected) or 4-wire (neutral connected).
When the connection mode selected in the commissioning menu does not
correspond to the hardware set-up detected by the filter, the filter will trip out
when started. A 'Bad Parameters' fault will be reported in the filter event log.
Correct the problem before proceeding.
· The CT settings:
The CT settings can in many cases be automatically detected or can be entered
manually. Section 8.6
procedure.
· The Rating parameter:
If the filter is installed at locations higher than 1000m /3300ft or is running under
ambient temperature conditions higher than 40°C/104°F, the filter has to be
derated. For more information on how to calculate the derating required and how
to enter the derating value, refer to
· Although the user requirements for harmonic filtering and reactive power
compensation/balancing can be set up from the commissioning window this
should not be done before the filter has been started successfully for the first time
(Cf. Section 8.7)
· If digital I/O and/or the alarm contact have been cabled on the PQF-Manager, the
appropriate software settings have to be made. This has to be done in the
'Customer settings' menu ([/Welcome/Settings/Customer set.]). Refer to
