PCM600 Getting Started Guide
The Read Recordings from IED operation uploads the selected COMTRADE recordings to the recordings folder in the local computer. On a successful read operation, the computer icon in the first column is enabled indicating that the recording is available locally in the computer for analysis.

The read operation is performed based on the IED's capability. If the IED is not capable of reading the subset of recordings, all the recordings are read. If no recordings are selected, all the recordings are read.

  • On the PCM600 menu bar, select IED > IED Recordings > Read Recordings from IED.
  • Click the Read Recordings from IED toolbar button.
  • Right-click the Disturbance Handling window and select Read Recordings from IED in the shortcut menu.
  • Double-click the IED recording.
    Note: The recordings with the IED icon enabled in the first column can only be read.
    Note: If a recording is already read in the local computer, a warning appears asking if the recording should be overwritten.
