1 Safety precautions
The power analyzer CAM mobile has been designed as a protection class I instrument in accordance with the
safety regulations IEC/EN 61010-1. To ensure the safety of the operating staff a protective earth via the power
supply connector is mandatory and the following warnings must be adhered to. Safety is not guaranteed if
warnings are not followed or if the device is operated incorrectly or handled improperly. Reference is made to
the following warnings at corresponding points in the subsequent text to assure their compliance.
1
The power supply for the CAM mobile must be provided via the IEC power connector on
the backside of the device using a three conductor IEC power cord. Under all
circumstances this cord must provide a connection to protective earth. If no connection to
protective earth is provided or if protection is disabled by using an extension cord without
protective conductor the device may be hazardous.
2
The device may only be operated by trained personnel who are capable of recognizing
contact hazards and implementing appropriate safety precautions. Hazards are present
anywhere, where voltages with a potential of higher than 50V to ground may occur.
3
When performing measurements involving contact hazards a second person should
always be present. Typically this is the case during connecting current and voltage
inputs.
4
The connection of the measurement inputs may be performed not before the device has
been connected to protective earth in accordance with warning 1.
The maximum allowed potential of current and voltage inputs is:
300V CATIII resp. 600V CATIII
5
Only use measurement leads which are in perfect condition. Especially the insulation
may not be damaged.
It must be assumed that unexpected voltages may occur at measurement objects.
Capacitors, for example, may be dangerously charged.
6
Measurements under damp ambient conditions are not allowed. The device may not be
exposed to moisture.
7
The device must be put out of operation if a safe operation, e.g. due to visible damages,
is no longer possible. To do so, you have to switch-off all connections first. Then the
device has to be sent to our factory resp. to an authorized service center.
8
Opening the device is not allowed. Live parts may be exposed. Any intervention in the
device will void the warranty. Maintenance and repair work must be carried out by our
service center only.
Device may only be disposed of in a
professional manner !

3 Device overview
The CAM mobile is a measurement device to be used in any low voltage power distribution. It bases on the
SINEAX CAM, a proven universal measurement unit for heavy-current quantities, equipped with data logger,
lists, display and USB interface. The CAM mobile is designed for the non-stationary analysis of energy demand
and system state quantities. It provides the following capabilities to the user:
- Continuous analysis of present system state
- Acquisition of disturbances, as voltage fluctuations or voltage sags
- Acquisition of system load variations over time
- Investigation of billing relevant quantities as peak load, load characteristic and active / reactive energy
demand summaries
By using Rogowski coils a wide application field in distributions from 30 up to 3000A may be covered. For the
configuration of the device before the application in the field and the subsequent data analysis PC skills are
required, because the device itself can only visualize measurements but does not allow performing any settings
or detailed analyses.
In the following chapters the planning of the device application, the performing of the measurement and the
analysis of the recorded data is described in detail. The following main topics will be described:
APreparation of measurement application: By means of the CB-Manager software (on CD) the
measurement functionality can be pre-configured, the events to be monitored can be fixed and the data
logger can be parameterized.
BConnecting the device on-site
CChecking the correct installation
DPerforming the measurement
EAnalysis of recorded data: By means of the CB-Analyzer software (on CD) measurement data can be
analyzed and if desired exported for further analysis in other programs.

8/66
4 Preparation of measurement application
Before performing measurements the CAM mobile must be configured for the measurement application via the
USB interface, because via display no such settings can be performed. To do so, the device must be supplied
with power. The subsequent described parameterization is done using the CB-Manager software.
4.1 Installation of the CB-Manager Software
The installation of the CB-Manager software is described in detail in the file „Read-me-first.pdf“ on the supplied
CD and is as well shown in Appendix D1. After starting the application „Setup.exe“ in the directory „Software
CB-Manager Vxxx“ the CB-Manager and the USB driver will be installed. The USB driver is required for the
later communication with the device.
4.2 Connecting CAM mobile to PC
Observe warning 1 of the safety precautions
Connect the device to an applicable power supply by means of the IEC power cord and switch the device on.
Then connect the USB connector of the CAM mobile to a USB connector of the PC.
4.3 Parameterization of the CAM mobile
After the first start-up of the software set the communication interface to „USB“ using the menu item options |
interface. Once done use system | search devices to bring the CAM mobile into the device list. By double-
clicking on the appropriate symbol in the device list the present parameterization of the device is read and
displayed.
For configuration parameters a context-sensitive help is available in the CB-Manager,
which describes the meaning of the specific settings. To display just right-click with the
mouse on the corresponding input field.
4.3.1 Parameterization of the measurement input
In the register „input“ the features of the system to monitor can be defined. Along with the system type
expectations of the maximum signal levels must be defined, i.e. the maximum overriding of the voltage and
current quantities which should still be measurable.
The configuration of the current inputs has to match the setting of
the rotary-switch of the Rogowski coils. The coils support the following three
ranges:
Range Sensitivity per [A]
30A 100mV
300A 10mV
3000A 1mV
Example: You want to measure max. 200 A with 10% over range
Current input: prim. 200A / sec. 2V
Position of rotary-switch: 300 A

9/66
4.3.2 Parameterization of the measurements to record
In the register „mean values“ those quantities can be selected, which should be recorded later over a longer
time period.
Two different groups of mean values with up to 12 quantities each are supported. Typically of the groups is
used with a longer interval time, e.g. 900s = 15min. for recordings load profiles, and the other one with a
shorter interval time, e.g. 60s for basic quantities such as voltage or current. The synchronization of these
intervals must be set to „internal“ (via built-in RTC), because no external synchronization source is supported.

10/66
4.3.3 Defining events to monitor
To detect and record the occurrence of special situation, such as overload or phase failure, limit values can be
defined. The state of a limit or a combination of multiple limit states can then in the logic module be classified
as event or alarm. So each changing can be recorded in the appropriate event lists with the time-stamp of its
occurrence. Up to 64 limit values and up to 32 logic functions (events to monitor) may be defined.
Example: Monitoring an overload situation
In the register „limit values“ for each active phase power a limit value is defined. For each limit you have define
the values limit for ON state and limit for OFF state.
Limit for OFF state
Limit state
0
1
Limit for ON state
Depending on the application limit values are used to monitor if a value is exceeded (upper limit) or falls below
a certain limit (lower limit). The limit for ON state always corresponds to the measurement where the limit state
changes to „1“, the limit for OFF state is the measurement for which the state changes back to “0”. The
difference of the two values corresponds to the hysteresis.
In the „logic module“ the states of the three monitored phase powers will be defined as input for the logic
function LS <1> and combined using a logical „OR“. If one of the three limit values is exceeded, the logic output
becomes „1“. This way a list entry “overload” into the event list is initiated. As soon as the logic output goes
back to „0“ the text “load o.k.“ will be written into the event list.

11/66
States of limit values are the most important input quantities of the logic module. If more than 3 inputs are
required, the result of a logic function can be used as input for the next function. For that you have to know that
logic functions are evaluated in the sequence 1…32. Thus it’s meaningful to use the result of a logic function c
in a logic function x+n to assure that further processing is performed in the current evaluation cycle, rather than
in the next cycle.
For completeness the truth tables of the usable logical functions are shown below. For simplicity their
functionality has been reduced to gates with two inputs only.

4.3.4 Defining measurement data to record
After the definition of event controlled recording data measurements may be selected, which shall be recorded
in periodical intervals over a longer time period. In the final step you select how much of the available memory
will be reserved for each logger / list type.
In the register „Logger of the meters“ you can select which of the available meters shall be read and recorded
in regular intervals. In the following example the meters for incoming active and reactive energy are selected, to
be read every day at 00:00.

12/66
In the register „Logger + Lists“ those mean-values can be selected which have to be recorded with spaces of
the associated intervals. In the example:
U1N, U2N, U3N, I1, I2, I3, IN in intervals of 60s
P1, P2, P3, Q1, Q2, Q3 in intervals of 900s
For up to six quantities the recording of min/max values can be selected. Thereby for each selected measured
quantity its minimum and maximum RMS value within the interval will be stored. This allows finding load
variations, to detect e.g. possible breaks of the power supply at an early stage. In the example:
min/max RMS-values for P1, P2, P3 for each 15 minutes interval
For a temporary measurement using the CAM mobile the memory utilization should be selected, that most of
the data logger parts allows the same storage (in the example 153 days). For lists this is not possible directly,
but you can define the maximum number of storable events.
Data recording may be performed one-time or in endless mode. This can be selected individually for each
logger. In contrast lists generally work in endless mode. If one-time recording is selected storage is stopped as
soon as the maximum memory space is used. In endless mode the oldest data will be deleted when the
maximum is reached.

13/66
4.3.5 Parameterization of the display
The graphic display is intended for on-site visualization of measurement data, lists and alarms of the CAM
mobile. The operation of the display is performed menu-driven by means of the keys. In addition to predefined
displays the user can define free measurement assemblies via the register „display: internal“. If needed also a
preference display or automatic changing measurement displays can be configured.
The menu navigation can be done in 7 languages. The change of the language can be performed also locally
via the display. The operation of the display is described in Appendix B. Operating instructions in other
languages may be found on the supplied CD.
4.3.6 Save configuration
To activate the new configuration it must be downloaded to the device. This may be done by selecting the
button „Download to device“.
Note that the logger will not automatically be activated when the configuration
is downloaded. See „4.3.7 Starting the logger“.
It’s recommended to store the configuration for security reasons on the PC. So later on you will also be able to
make OFFLINE (without a device connected) modifications, which then may be downloaded to the device on-
site. Saving of configurations is performed via the file menu:
File | parameters | save file
4.3.7 Starting the logger
When downloading the configuration to the device the state of each logger part is not changed. If one of the
logger parts mean values t1 / t2, min/max values or meters was active it remains active after downloading,
otherwise it remains inactive.
The state of the logger will not be changed by a power failure or by
switching off the device. Therefore the CAM mobile may be transported
to the place of action, without the need to start the logger again on-site.
Starting or stopping of logger parts is done via the context menu in the device list. Doing so, the content of the
individual data loggers will not be changed. All data already stored will remain stored.
Using the right mouse key click on the device in the device list and select the logger menu:
Note: Alarm, event and operator list can not be started, stopped or reset. Lists are always active to
prevent manipulations.

5 Connecting the device on-site
Observe warning 1…7 of the safety precautions!
5.1 General warnings
National provisions (e.g. in Germany VDE 0100 “Conditions concerning the erection of heavy
current facilities with rated voltages below 1000 V”) have to be observed !
5.2 Connecting power supply
For safe operation the device must have a low impedance connection to the protective
earth connector. Therefore, check under all circumstances the AC power socket and its
wiring !
Power supply is provided via an IEC power connector on the backside of the device using a
three conductor IEC power cord.
Under all circumstances this cord must provide a connection to protective earth.
If no connection to protective earth is provided or if protection is disabled by using an extension
cord without protective conductor the device may be hazardous.
Connect the device to the power supply using the IEC power cord. Do not switch on the device until voltage
and current inputs have been connected.
5.3 Connecting current and voltage inputs
• By connecting measuring circuits dangerous voltages are brought to the inputs and
inside the device.
• Using non-standard connecting cables may cause dangerous electrical shock.
Therefore, use the supplied connection cables only.
• To ensure operational safety the device must first be connected to protective earth.
This is done via the power supply connector (see 5.2).
• Switch off all measurement circuits before connecting them to the device. Make sure
that the maximum voltage to earth is not exceeded (300V CATIII, 600V CATII).

If the single-phase Rogowski coil is not available its connection may be omitted. This will have no influence on
measurement or measurement accuracy. Only the neutral current can’t be measured and is given with 0.0A.
• Split-phase ("two phase system"), unbalanced load
The coil L3 of the 3-phase
Rogowski coil ACP 3003_3 is
not used
If the single-phase Rogowski coil is not available its connection may be omitted. This will have no influence on
measurement or measurement accuracy. Only the neutral current can’t be measured and is given with 0.0A.

19/66
6 Checking the correct installation
6.1 By means of the PC-Software
Voltage (at least 20% Urated) and current (at least 2% Irated) must be connected
Using the connection check, which is integrated in the visualization of the instantaneous values, the correct
connection of the current and voltage inputs may be checked. The phase sequence will be checked, as well as
if there are open connections or reversed current connections (which change the direction of the current).
The image below shows open current connections (red description I1, I2, I3). This arises because the individual
currents are below 2% of the rated value.
6.2 Via measurement display
A simplified connection control is available also via display. See:
B4.7 Measurements for wiring control
If the device indicates no voltage, even if voltage should be present, check
the fuse of the lead for voltage measurement (see chapter 2).

20/66
7 Performing measurements
As soon as the CAM mobile is switched on the device starts to measure and analyze the input quantities in
accordance with the configuration. Since the measurement is likely to take place over a longer time period, it is
important to check some basic settings, as otherwise the recorded measurement data can not produce the
desired result.
Data logger
The individual data loggers must be started during parameterization of the device. This is described in
the „Starting the logger”. The state of the individual loggers can be requested only via CB-Manager
software using the USB interface.
Time and date
Check if time and date are correctly set in the device. See „Settings of the clock“.
Min/Max values
If extreme values should be monitored, it makes sense to reset them after switching on the device, as
e.g. minimum values of voltage quantities will be set to 0.0V or the frequency will show the minimum of
the allowed frequency range (either 10 or 45Hz). This reset may be performed either by means of the
PC software or via display (see „Display measurements“). The same is valid for meter contents.
