FAQ Displayed on the top of the window are the following parameter fields: • The Blue field (labeled ) displays the parameter value at the blue cursor 2 position. • The Green field (labeled ) displays the parameter valu e at the green cursor 1 p osition.
EnerVista PMCS 6. 15 Quick Start Guide • Select the Trigger button to have the cursor times displayed as an offset from the ‘Trigger Time’ of the COMTRADE fil e. A negative time i ndicates a time that occurs be fore the trigger and a positive time indicates a time that occurs after the trigger.
FAQ • The Delta box on the t op right side of the s creen indicates the differe nce in magnitude between the two cursors. The box at the top shows the di fference in time (milliseconds). • Waveforms may be super-i mposed on top of each other by selecting and dragging them wit h the left mouse button.
