In the window • “Evaluate Dissipation for Enclosure 1” select [ Import MCS Star ]
Enter or select the fi lename of the DBF fi le you have exported before from MCS Star•
Select the [ Import ] button•
Note:
TRCS does a look-up in the Rockwell Automation Components database.  e power-loss
data for all components are stored there as follows:
P•
0
Constant losses (e.g. power supply, contactor coils)
P•
1
Losses proportional to the current (~ I; e.g. power semi-conductors)
P•
2
Losses proportional to the square of the current (~ I
2
; e.g. conductors, fuses,
contact systems)
I•
ref
Reference current for P
1
and P
2
(current where P
1
or P
2
occur)
