Issue
What is the COMTRADE file name/time format, and can it be changed?

Product Line
PowerLogic PM8000 Series

Environment
COMTRADE File

Resolution
The COMTRADE files (.cfg and .dat) from a sag/swell or transient event can be found on the PM8000's FTP site.

Q: The COMTRADE file is generated with my local time, can this be changed?
A: Yes, the timestamp can be changed inside the file.

Q: Is that possible to customize the COMTRADE file name?
A: No, the file name cannot be altered (typically called cmt0__00000 (incrementing with each new saved waveform) and documented in .cfg and .dat formats).

Example of COMTRADE .cfg output:
.cfg Output
Please follow the attached COMTRADE & ION Technology document for steps on enabling the COMTRADE feature (disabled by default).
*Note: a master reset will clear all COMTRADE files on the FTP site.*
