User Manual II. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Installation: a. Turn off the equipment you are connecting to the MULTIPAK, and unplug the equipment’s power cord from the wall outlet. b. Connect Equipment Connect the AC power cord of the equipment to be protected into one of the MULTIPAK convenience receptacles. Make sure that the total amperage of all equipment plugged into the MULTIPAK does not exceed the maximum branch circuit rating.
User Manual III. HARDWARE 1. MULTIPAK: a. Normal Operation Plug the MULTIPAK input power cord into a properly grounded and compatible branch circuit outlet; the green “System On” LED will illuminate. b. Wiring Fault When connected to an incorrectly wired branch circuit outlet, the Red LED will be illuminated. c.
User Manual IV. SOFTWARE INSTALLATION 1. Computer Requirements a. Minimum 133MHz Pentium processor (or equivalent), minimum 64MB of RAM, minimum 10MB free hard drive space, VGA or higher resolution monitor, keyboard, mouse, CD or DVD drive, minimum screen resolution of 1024x768, Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10. 2. Hardware Requirements a. For use with enVision enabled products and Data Interface Cable (XG-PCS-1C-1) 3. Download and Install Software a. Download the Software Installer from www.espsurgex.
User Manual 4. Install Data Interface Cable a. Automatic Installation (Requires Internet connection) i. Plug the USB side of the Data Interface Cable into an available USB port. ii. Windows will automatically detect and install appropriate device driver files for the Data Interface Cable. • • • If a “Found New Hardware” pop-up box appears, follow the onscreen instructions and allow Windows to search online for driver files.
User Manual 3. Configure the Data Interface Cable and COM Port a. Click the COM Port Setup button labeled COM. b. Click Configure. i. The auto configuration process will automatically set the correct device parameters of the Data Interface Cable to operate properly with the software and Next Gen. • • Note: This process only needs to be done once for each new Data Interface Cable installed on the PC.
User Manual ii. The COM port may also be manually configured using the Device Manager: 1.Open Device Manager a. Click on Start button b.Type the following command in the Search box: devmgmt.msc c. Press Enter 2.In the Device Manager, expand “Ports (COM & LPT)” 3.Right-click on the entry labeled “USB Serial Port (COMx)” and click “Properties” 4.In the USB Serial Port Properties pop-up box, click the “Port Settings” tab, and then click the “Advanced” button. 5.
User Manual c. Click Detect. i. The auto detect process will automatically detect the COM Port number assigned to the Data Interface Cable. ii. If the auto detection process is successful, click Save. The software is now properly configured and ready for use. iii. If the auto detection process is not successful, verify that the Data Interface Cable device drivers are properly installed, and that the physical connections between the enVision and the PC have been made correctly. d.
User Manual a. Multimeter Mode i. The Multimeter Mode provides information traditionally acquired from a handheld digital multimeter, as well as an overview of the recorded power quality events. ±2% Typical Measurement Accuracy. © 2017 AMETEK Electronic Systems Protection / Technical Support: 1-800-645-9721 / surgex.
User Manual ii. Real-time display of electrical parameters • • Line Voltage: AC RMS Volts. Peak Measurement Type Neutral-Ground Voltage: AC RMS Volts Neutral-Ground. Peak Measurement Type. Available with 120V models with firmware version 2.00 and later. ±1V accuracy from 3V-10V. iii. Number of recorded power quality events • • • • Surge Events: SG Overvoltage Events: OVrec Undervoltage Events: UVrec Power Outage Events: PO b. Chart Mode i.
User Manual c. Outlet Control Mode i. The Outlet Control Mode enables control of the AC outlets and provides information about wiring faults and abnormal line voltage. ii. Use the green On/Off button to manually turn the AC outlets on and off. • Pressing the blue Power Cycle button will result in the execution of a power cycle. When commanded, the outlets will turn off, and then back on, after a 90 second delay. The Power Cycle indicator will be illuminated while a power cycle is active.
User Manual d. Historical Data Mode The Historical Data Mode allows for the retrieval and display of the power quality event data stored in the Next Gen internal memory. i. Time Stamped Power Quality Event Data ▪ Next Gen is able to store and timestamp the 60 most recent power quality events in its internal memory. Press the Import Time Stamped Data button to download the event data.yuikl © 2017 AMETEK Electronic Systems Protection / Technical Support: 1-800-645-9721 / surgex.
User Manual Four types of events are logged: ▪ Surge: Next Gen has been exposed to a transient voltage in one of the 3 possible modes (between Live and Neutral, between Live and Ground, between Neutral and Ground) with a peak amplitude of 500V* or higher and a frequency of 20 kHz or higher. *500V surge voltage amplitude applies to IEEE C62.41 Category B Impulse; surge voltage amplitudes necessary for detection of other surge types may vary.
User Manual e. Settings Mode The Settings mode enables the specification of the user-configurable parameters of Next Gen. When this mode is entered, it displays the parameters currently in use. Firmware versions prior to 1.53 (120V models) and 1.02 (208-240V models) do not support the Auto Transmit feature. i. Auto Transmit: Enables/Disables the automatic transmission of status information every 30 minutes. Primarily intended for use with Remote Portal RP-IP. ii.
User Manual f. COM Port Setup Mode i. The COM Port Setup mode is used to configure new Data Interface Cables for use. ii. Detect: Automatically detect the COM Port when the Next Gen, Data Interface Cable, and PC are properly connected and powered up. iii. Configure: Automatically configure the advanced settings of the Data Interface Cable.
User Manual VI. TROUBLESHOOTING The MULTIPAK and Data Interface Cable contain no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt product disassembly, as this will void the product warranty. 1.
