Your meter supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) after you have enabled SNMP on your meter. You need to upload the meter’s Management Information Base (MIB) file (available from www.usa.siemens.com/pds) into the Network Management System (NMS) managing your meter. SNMP is part of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite.
9810 series - User manual Communications Term Definition A management information base which organizes the OIDs in a hierarchical tree. A network management station, manager or client that executes applications to monitor and control devices. An NMS must have the standard and custom MIB files and SNMP manager software. An object identifier that uniquely identifies and labels a managed object in the MIB.
SNMP trapping is only supported on SNMP v2. Configuring SNMP using ION Setup You can enable SNMP and configure SNMP trapping using ION Setup. Download the ION MIB file from www.usa.siemens.com/pds. To configure SNMP using ION Setup: 1. Start ION Setup.

9810 series - User manual SNMP requires that you load your meter’s ION MIB file (available for download from www.usa.siemens.com/pds) into the NMS. You must install RFC 1213, which is required to read basic network information for the meter (for example, TCP/IP traffic or number of packets received), if it is not included with your SNMP manager software.
Communications NOTE: The number of events or maximum time delay settings only apply to enterprise SNMP traps. See ION Reference, available from www.usa.siemens.com/pds, for detailed information on the SNMP Mapping, SNMP Options and Alarm Options modules.

Power quality 9810 series - User manual Burst data logging is analogous to continuous shooting mode or “burst mode” in photography. An understanding of pre and post event data assists in the analysis of undesired power quality events such as sags or swells. Burst logging is typically used for high-speed RMS (half-cycle) data capture, but the data recorder supports standard speed (1-second) recording as well, depending on the ION modules connected to the inputs of the Data Recorder module.

Power quality 9810 series - User manual Waveform recording triggered Waveform record captured at trigger Delayed waveform capture The meter’s Waveform Recorder modules support delayed waveform capture. The Waveform Recorder module’s Record Delay Cycles setup register specifies how many cycles to delay the waveform capture after the Record input is triggered. This is for capturing post- trigger waveform data.
Page 216
9810 series - User manual Power quality Both Pre-trigger Records and Post-trigger Records are set to zero by default. To configure the waveform recorder for extended waveform capture, either or both of these setup registers must be set to a non-zero positive integer value. If you do this, you must also set the Record Delay Cycles setup register to zero in order to properly configure the extended waveform capture.
Page 217
Power quality 9810 series - User manual The waveform log set for the extended waveform capture = [pre-trigger records] + [actual trigger record] + [post-trigger records]. The total waveform records captured in this example is 2 + 1 + 6 = When extended waveform capture is enabled, both Buffer Depth and Depth setup registers must be set to a positive integer multiple of the waveform log set.
