7.5 Demo Operation

  1. Connect the hardware and prepare the demo setup, following the instructions provided in the Demo Setup section
  2. Configure the Data Visualizer, following the instructions provided in the Data Visualizer Configuration section
  3. Click the Serial Port Connect button
  4. Click the SW0 button on the Curiosity Nano board and select the appropriate frequency for the three-phase signal. The selected frequency is displayed on the custom dashboard window.
  5. Zoom in or out the graph located in the Graph window by clicking the +/- magnifier symbol on the right hand top side
  6. Insert a phase-loss fault by clicking the L1 radio button on the dashboard, which disables the L1 signal out of the three-phase signal to emulate phase-loss input. Figure 7-13 (below) shows the three-phase signal with L1 phase-loss fault and the L1 phase-loss status indicator on the dashboard.

    Phase-loss faults on L2 and L3 can be similarly inserted by clicking the L2 or L3 radio button on the dashboard, which disables the corresponding signal to emulate phase-loss input. Figure 7-14 and Figure 7-15 (below) show the three-phase signal with the corresponding phase-loss faults; the corresponding phase-loss status indicator appears on the dashboard.

  7. Insert a phase-reversal by clicking the PR radio button on the dashboard, which changes the sequence of the three-phase signal to L1-L3-L2. Figure 7-16 (below) shows the phase-reversal input and phase-reversal status indication on the dashboard.
