1 Historically, substation protection, control, and metering functions were performed with electromechanical equipment. This
first generation of equipment was gradually replaced by analog electronic equipment, most of which emulated the single-
function approach of their electromechanical precursors. Both of these technologies required expensive cabling and auxil-
iary equipment to produce functioning systems.
Recently, digital electronic equipment has begun to provide protection, control, and metering functions. Initially, this equip-
ment was either single function or had very limited multi-function capability, and did not significantly reduce the cabling and
auxiliary equipment required. However, recent digital relays have become quite multi-functional, reducing cabling and aux-
iliaries significantly. These devices also transfer data to central control facilities and Human Machine Interfaces using elec-
tronic communications. The functions performed by these products have become so broad that many users now prefer the
term IED (Intelligent Electronic Device).
It is obvious to station designers that the amount of cabling and auxiliary equipment installed in stations can be even further
reduced, to 20% to 70% of the levels common in 1990, to achieve large cost reductions. This requires placing even more
functions within the IEDs.
Users of power equipment are also interested in reducing cost by improving power quality and personnel productivity, and
as always, in increasing system reliability and efficiency. These objectives are realized through software which is used to
perform functions at both the station and supervisory levels. The use of these systems is growing rapidly.
High speed communications are required to meet the data transfer rates required by modern automatic control and moni-
toring systems. In the near future, very high speed communications will be required to perform protection signaling with a
performance target response time for a command signal between two IEDs, from transmission to reception, of less than 5
milliseconds. This has been established by the Electric Power Research Institute, a collective body of many American and
Canadian power utilities, in their Utilities Communications Architecture 2 (MMS/UCA2) project. In late 1998, some Euro-
pean utilities began to show an interest in this ongoing initiative.
IEDs with the capabilities outlined above will also provide significantly more power system data than is presently available,
enhance operations and maintenance, and permit the use of adaptive system configuration for protection and control sys-
tems. This new generation of equipment must also be easily incorporated into automation systems, at both the station and
enterprise levels. The GE Multilin Universal Relay (UR) has been developed to meet these goals.
a) UR BASIC DESIGN 1
The UR is a digital-based device containing a central processing unit (CPU) that handles multiple types of input and output
signals. The UR can communicate over a local area network (LAN) with an operator interface, a programming device, or
another UR device.
LAN

Device Interface
827822A2.CDR
b) UR SIGNAL TYPES
The contact inputs and outputs are digital signals associated with connections to hard-wired contacts. Both ‘wet’ and ‘dry’
contacts are supported.
The virtual inputs and outputs are digital signals associated with UR internal logic signals. Virtual inputs include signals
generated by the local user interface. The virtual outputs are outputs of FlexLogic™ equations used to customize the UR
device. Virtual outputs can also serve as virtual inputs to FlexLogic™ equations.
The analog inputs and outputs are signals that are associated with transducers, such as Resistance Temperature Detec-
tors (RTDs).
The CT and VT inputs refer to analog current transformer and voltage transformer signals used to monitor AC power lines.
The UR supports 1 A and 5 A CTs.
The remote inputs and outputs provide a means of sharing digital point state information between remote UR devices.
The remote outputs interface to the remote inputs of other UR devices. Remote outputs are FlexLogic™ operands inserted
into UCA2 GOOSE messages and are of two assignment types: DNA standard functions and USER defined functions.
The direct inputs and outputs provide a means of sharing digital point states between a number of UR IEDs over a dedi-
cated fiber (single or multimode), RS422, or G.703 interface. No switching equipment is required as the IEDs are connected
directly in a ring or redundant (dual) ring configuration. This feature is optimized for speed and intended for pilot-aided
schemes, distributed logic applications, or the extension of the input/output capabilities of a single UR chassis.
c) UR SCAN OPERATION
1 The UR device operates in a cyclic scan fashion. The UR reads the inputs into an input status table, solves the logic pro-
gram (FlexLogic™ equation), and then sets each output to the appropriate state in an output status table. Any resulting task
execution is priority interrupt-driven.

The firmware (software embedded in the relay) is designed in functional modules which can be installed in any relay as
required. This is achieved with Object-Oriented Design and Programming (OOD/OOP) techniques.
Object-Oriented techniques involve the use of ‘objects’ and ‘classes’. An ‘object’ is defined as “a logical entity that contains
both data and code that manipulates that data”. A ‘class’ is the generalized form of similar objects. By using this concept,
one can create a Protection Class with the Protection Elements as objects of the class such as Time Overcurrent, Instanta-
neous Overcurrent, Current Differential, Undervoltage, Overvoltage, Underfrequency, and Distance. These objects repre-
sent completely self-contained software modules. The same object-class concept can be used for Metering, I/O Control,
HMI, Communications, or any functional entity in the system.
Employing OOD/OOP in the software architecture of the Universal Relay achieves the same features as the hardware
architecture: modularity, scalability, and flexibility. The application software for any Universal Relay (e.g. Feeder Protection,
Transformer Protection, Distance Protection) is constructed by combining objects from the various functionality classes.
This results in a ’common look and feel’ across the entire family of UR platform-based applications.
As described above, the architecture of the UR relay is different from previous devices. In order to achieve a general under-
standing of this device, some sections of Chapter 5 are quite helpful. The most important functions of the relay are con-
tained in “Elements”. A description of UR elements can be found in the Introduction to Elements section in Chapter 5. An
example of a simple element, and some of the organization of this manual, can be found in the Digital Elements settings
section. An explanation of the use of inputs from CTs and VTs is in the Introduction to AC Sources section in Chapter 5. A
description of how digital signals are used and routed within the relay is contained in the Introduction to FlexLogic™ section
in Chapter 5.
The Faceplate keypad and display or the URPC software interface can be used to communicate with the relay.

The URPC software interface is the preferred method to edit settings and view actual values because the PC monitor can
display more information in a simple comprehensible format.
The following minimum requirements must be met for the URPC software to properly operate on a PC.
• Pentium class or higher processor (Pentium II 300 MHz or higher recommended)
• Windows 95, 98, 98SE, ME, NT 4.0 (Service Pack 4 or higher), 2000, XP
• 64 MB of RAM (256 MB recommended)
• 40 MB of available hard drive space (100 MB recommended)
• Video capable of displaying 800 x 600 or higher in High Color mode (16-bit color)
• RS232 and/or Ethernet communications port to the relay

Refer to Chapter 4 in this manual and the URPC Help File for more information about the using the URPC
software interface.
NOTE
1 Please refer to Chapter 3: Hardware for detailed mounting and wiring instructions. Review all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS
carefully.
1.4.2 COMMUNICATIONS
The URPC software communicates to the relay via the faceplate RS232 port or the rear panel RS485 / Ethernet ports. To
communicate via the faceplate RS232 port, a standard “straight-through” serial cable is used. The DB-9 male end is con-
nected to the relay and the DB-9 or DB-25 female end is connected to the PC COM1 or COM2 port as described in the
CPU Communications Ports section of Chapter 3.
All messages are displayed on a 2 × 20 character vacuum fluorescent display to make them visible under poor lighting con-
ditions. An optional liquid crystal display (LCD) is also available. Messages are displayed in English and do not require the
aid of an instruction manual for deciphering. While the keypad and display are not actively being used, the display will
default to defined messages. Any high priority event driven message will automatically override the default message and
appear on the display.
Display messages are organized into ‘pages’ under the following headings: Actual Values, Settings, Commands, and Tar-
1
gets. The key navigates through these pages. Each heading page is broken down further into logical subgroups.
The MESSAGE keys navigate through the subgroups. The VALUE keys scroll increment or decrement
numerical setting values when in programming mode. These keys also scroll through alphanumeric values in the text edit
mode. Alternatively, values may also be entered with the numeric keypad.
The key initiates and advance to the next character in text edit mode or enters a decimal point. The key may be
pressed at any time for context sensitive help messages. The key stores altered setting values.
Press the key to select the desired header display page (top-level menu). The header title appears momentarily fol-
lowed by a header display page menu item. Each press of the key advances through the main heading pages as
illustrated below.

The setting and actual value messages are arranged hierarchically. The header display pages are indicated by double
scroll bar characters (##), while sub-header pages are indicated by single scroll bar characters (#). The header display
pages represent the highest level of the hierarchy and the sub-header display pages fall below this level. The MESSAGE
and keys move within a group of headers, sub-headers, setting values, or actual values. Continually pressing the
MESSAGE key from a header display displays specific information for the header category. Conversely, continually
pressing the MESSAGE key from a setting value or actual value display returns to the header display.
## SETTINGS
## SYSTEM SETUP
1 The relay is defaulted to the "Not Programmed" state when it leaves the factory. This safeguards against the installation of
a relay whose settings have not been entered. When powered up successfully, the Trouble LED will be on and the In Ser-
vice LED off. The relay in the "Not Programmed" state will block signaling of any output relay. These conditions will remain
until the relay is explicitly put in the "Programmed" state.
Select the menu message SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" INSTALLATION ! RELAY SETTINGS
RELAY SETTINGS:
Not Programmed
To put the relay in the "Programmed" state, press either of the VALUE keys once and then press . The face-
plate Trouble LED will turn off and the In Service LED will turn on. The settings for the relay can be programmed manually
(refer to Chapter 5) via the faceplate keypad or remotely (refer to the URPC Help file) via the URPC software interface.
The battery tab is installed in the power supply module before the C60 shipped from the factory. The battery tab prolongs
battery life in the event the relay is powered down for long periods of time before installation. The battery is responsible for
backing up event records, oscillography, data logger, and real-time clock information when the relay is powered off. The
battery failure self-test error generated by the relay is a minor and should not affect the relay functionality. When the relay is
installed and ready for commissioning, the tab should be removed. The battery tab should be re-inserted if the relay is pow-
ered off for an extended period of time. If required, contact the factory for a replacement battery or battery tab.
It is recommended that passwords be set up for each security level and assigned to specific personnel. There are two user
password security access levels, COMMAND and SETTING:
1. COMMAND
The COMMAND access level restricts the user from making any settings changes, but allows the user to perform the fol-
lowing operations:
• operate breakers via faceplate keypad
• change state of virtual inputs
• clear event records
• clear oscillography records
• operate user-programmable pushbuttons
2. SETTING
The SETTING access level allows the user to make any changes to any of the setting values.
Refer to the Changing Settings section in Chapter 4 for complete instructions on setting up security level
passwords.
NOTE
FlexLogic™ equation editing is required for setting up user-defined logic for customizing the relay operations. See the Flex-
Logic™ section in Chapter 5 for additional details.
1.5.8 COMMISSIONING
Templated tables for charting all the required settings before entering them via the keypad are available from the GE Multi-
lin website at http://www.GEindustrial.com/multilin.
The C60 Breaker Management Relay is a microprocessor based relay designed for breaker monitoring, control and protec-
tion.
Voltage, current, and power metering is built into the relay as a standard feature. Current parameters are available as total
waveform RMS magnitude, or as fundamental frequency only RMS magnitude and angle (phasor).
Diagnostic features include an Event Recorder capable of storing 1024 time-tagged events, oscillography capable of stor-
ing up to 64 records with programmable trigger, content and sampling rate, and Data Logger acquisition of up to 16 chan-
2
nels, with programmable content and sampling rate. The internal clock used for time-tagging can be synchronized with an
IRIG-B signal or via the SNTP protocol over the Ethernet port. This precise time stamping allows the sequence of events to
be determined throughout the system. Events can also be programmed (via FlexLogic™ equations) to trigger oscillography
data capture which may be set to record the measured parameters before and after the event for viewing on a personal
computer (PC). These tools significantly reduce troubleshooting time and simplify report generation in the event of a sys-
tem fault.
A faceplate RS232 port may be used to connect to a PC for the programming of settings and the monitoring of actual val-
ues. A variety of communications modules are available. Two rear RS485 ports allow independent access by operating and
engineering staff. All serial ports use the Modbus® RTU protocol. The RS485 ports may be connected to system computers
with baud rates up to 115.2 kbps. The RS232 port has a fixed baud rate of 19.2 kbps. Optional communications modules
include a 10BaseF Ethernet interface which can be used to provide fast, reliable communications in noisy environments.
Another option provides two 10BaseF fiber optic ports for redundancy. The Ethernet port supports MMS/UCA2, Modbus®/
TCP, and TFTP protocols, and allows access to the relay via any standard web browser (UR web pages). The IEC 60870-
5-104 protocol is supported on the Ethernet port. DNP 3.0 and IEC 60870-5-104 cannot be enabled at the same time.
The C60 IEDs use flash memory technology which allows field upgrading as new features are added. The following Single
Line Diagram illustrates the relay functionality using ANSI (American National Standards Institute) device numbers.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning: Normally, cleaning is not required; but for
situations where dust has accumulated
on the faceplate display, a dry cloth can
be used.
The relay is available as a 19-inch rack horizontal mount unit or as a reduced size (¾) vertical mount unit, with a removable
faceplate. The modular design allows the relay to be easily upgraded or repaired by a qualified service person. The face-
plate is hinged to allow easy access to the removable modules, and is itself removable to allow mounting on doors with lim-
ited rear depth. There is also a removable dust cover that fits over the faceplate, which must be removed when attempting
to access the keypad or RS232 communications port.
The vertical and horizontal case dimensions are shown below, along with panel cutout details for panel mounting. When
planning the location of your panel cutout, ensure that provision is made for the faceplate to swing open without interfer-
ence to or from adjacent equipment.
The relay must be mounted such that the faceplate sits semi-flush with the panel or switchgear door, allowing the operator
access to the keypad and the RS232 communications port. The relay is secured to the panel with the use of four screws
supplied with the relay.

nected equipment, or undesired operation!
Proper electrostatic discharge protection (i.e. a static strap) must be used when coming in contact with

WARNING
The relay, being modular in design, allows for the withdrawal and insertion of modules. Modules must only be replaced with
like modules in their original factory configured slots.
The faceplate can be opened to the left, once the sliding latch on the right side has been pushed up, as shown below. This
allows for easy accessibility of the modules for withdrawal.

The relay follows a convention with respect to terminal number assignments which are three characters long assigned in
order by module slot position, row number, and column letter. Two-slot wide modules take their slot designation from the
first slot position (nearest to CPU module) which is indicated by an arrow marker on the terminal block. See the following
figure for an example of rear terminal assignments.

Filter networks and transient protection clamps are used in module hardware to prevent damage caused by high peak volt-
age transients, radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI). These protective components
can be damaged by application of the ANSI/IEEE C37.90 specified test voltage for a period longer than the specified one
minute. For testing of dielectric strength where the test interval may exceed one minute, always observe the following pre-
cautions:
1. The connection from ground to the Filter Ground (Terminal 8b) and Surge Ground (Terminal 8a) must be removed
before testing.
2. Some versions of the digital I/O module have a Surge Ground connection on Terminal 8b. On these module types, this
connection must be removed before testing.
CONTROL POWER SUPPLIED TO THE RELAY MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE MATCHING POWER SUPPLY
RANGE OF THE RELAY. IF THE VOLTAGE IS APPLIED TO THE WRONG TERMINALS, DAMAGE MAY

OCCUR!
The C60 relay, like almost all electronic relays, contains electrolytic capacitors. These capacitors are well
known to be subject to deterioration over time if voltage is not applied periodically. Deterioration can be
NOTE
avoided by powering the relays up once a year.
The power supply module can be ordered with either of two possible voltage ranges. Each range has a dedicated input
connection for proper operation. The ranges are as shown below (see the Technical Specifications section for details):
• LO range: 24 to 48 V (DC only) nominal
A CT/VT module may have voltage inputs on Channels 1 through 4 inclusive, or Channels 5 through 8 inclusive. Channels
1 and 5 are intended for connection to Phase A, and are labeled as such in the relay. Channels 2 and 6 are intended for
connection to Phase B, and are labeled as such in the relay. Channels 3 and 7 are intended for connection to Phase C and
are labeled as such in the relay. Channels 4 and 8 are intended for connection to a single phase source. If voltage, this
channel is labelled the auxiliary voltage (VX). If current, this channel is intended for connection to a CT between a system
neutral and ground, and is labelled the ground current (IG).
a) CT INPUTS
VERIFY THAT THE CONNECTION MADE TO THE RELAY NOMINAL CURRENT OF 1 A OR 5 A MATCHES

DAMAGE OR INADEQUATE PROTECTION.
The CT/VT module may be ordered with a standard ground current input that is the same as the phase current inputs (Type
8A) or with a sensitive ground input (Type 8B) which is 10 times more sensitive (see the Technical Specifications section for
more details). Each AC current input has an isolating transformer and an automatic shorting mechanism that shorts the
input when the module is withdrawn from the chassis. There are no internal ground connections on the current inputs. Cur-
rent transformers with 1 to 50000 A primaries and 1 A or 5 A secondaries may be used.
CT connections for both ABC and ACB phase rotations are identical as shown in the Typical Wiring Diagram.
The exact placement of a Zero Sequence CT so that ground fault current will be detected is shown below. Twisted pair
cabling on the zero sequence CT is recommended.
b) VT INPUTS
The phase voltage channels are used for most metering and protection purposes. The auxiliary voltage channel is used as
input for the Synchrocheck and Volts/Hertz features.

NOTE
Every digital input/output module has 24 terminal connections. They are arranged as 3 terminals per row, with 8 rows in
total. A given row of three terminals may be used for the outputs of one relay. For example, for Form-C relay outputs, the
terminals connect to the normally open (NO), normally closed (NC), and common contacts of the relay. For a Form-A out-
put, there are options of using current or voltage detection for feature supervision, depending on the module ordered. The
terminal configuration for contact inputs is different for the two applications. When a Digital I/O module is ordered with con-
tact inputs, they are arranged in groups of four and use two rows of three terminals. Ideally, each input would be totally iso-
lated from any other input. However, this would require that every input have two dedicated terminals and limit the available
number of contacts based on the available number of terminals. So, although each input is individually optically isolated,
each group of four inputs uses a single common as a reasonable compromise. This allows each group of four outputs to be
supplied by wet contacts from different voltage sources (if required) or a mix of wet and dry contacts.
The tables and diagrams on the following pages illustrate the module types (6A, etc.) and contact arrangements that may
3 be ordered for the relay. Since an entire row is used for a single contact output, the name is assigned using the module slot
position and row number. However, since there are two contact inputs per row, these names are assigned by module slot
position, row number, and column position.
UR RELAY FORM-A OUTPUT CONTACTS:
Some Form-A outputs include circuits to monitor the DC voltage across the output contact when it is open, and the DC cur-
rent through the output contact when it is closed. Each of the monitors contains a level detector whose output is set to logic
“On = 1” when the current in the circuit is above the threshold setting. The voltage monitor is set to “On = 1” when the cur-
rent is above about 1 to 2.5 mA, and the current monitor is set to “On = 1” when the current exceeds about 80 to 100 mA.
The voltage monitor is intended to check the health of the overall trip circuit, and the current monitor can be used to seal-in
the output contact until an external contact has interrupted current flow. The block diagrams of the circuits are below above
for the Form-A outputs with:
a) optional voltage monitor
b) optional current monitor
c) with no monitoring

The operation of voltage and current monitors is reflected with the corresponding FlexLogic™ operands (Cont Op # Von,
Cont Op # Voff, Cont Op # Ion, and Cont Op # Ioff) which can be used in protection, control and alarm logic. The typical
application of the voltage monitor is Breaker Trip Circuit Integrity monitoring; a typical application of the Current monitor is
seal-in of the control command. Refer to the Digital Elements section of Chapter 5 for an example of how Form-A contacts
can be applied for Breaker Trip Circuit Integrity Monitoring.
Relay contacts must be considered unsafe to touch when the unit is energized! If the relay contacts need to
be used for low voltage accessible applications, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure proper insula-
WARNING
tion levels!
USE OF FORM-A OUTPUTS IN HIGH IMPEDANCE CIRCUITS
NOTE For Form-A output contacts internally equipped with a voltage measuring cIrcuit across the contact, the circuit has
an impedance that can cause a problem when used in conjunction with external high input impedance monitoring
equipment such as modern relay test set trigger circuits. These monitoring circuits may continue to read the Form-
A contact as being closed after it has closed and subsequently opened, when measured as an impedance.
3
The solution to this problem is to use the voltage measuring trigger input of the relay test set, and connect the
Form-A contact through a voltage-dropping resistor to a DC voltage source. If the 48 V DC output of the power sup-
ply is used as a source, a 500 Ω, 10 W resistor is appropriate. In this configuration, the voltage across either the
Form-A contact or the resistor can be used to monitor the state of the output.
Wherever a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute with the Slot Position of the module; wherever a number
sign "#" appears, substitute the contact number
NOTE
When current monitoring is used to seal-in the Form-A contact outputs, the FlexLogic™ operand driving
the contact output should be given a reset delay of 10 ms to prevent damage of the output contact (in situ-
NOTE
ations when the element initiating the contact output is bouncing, at values in the region of the pickup
value).

A dry contact has one side connected to Terminal B3b. This is the positive 48 V DC voltage rail supplied by the power sup-
ply module. The other side of the dry contact is connected to the required contact input terminal. Each contact input group
has its own common (negative) terminal which must be connected to the DC negative terminal (B3a) of the power supply
module. When a dry contact closes, a current of 1 to 3 mA will flow through the associated circuit.
A wet contact has one side connected to the positive terminal of an external DC power supply. The other side of this contact
is connected to the required contact input terminal. In addition, the negative side of the external source must be connected
to the relay common (negative) terminal of each contact input group. The maximum external source voltage for this
arrangement is 300 V DC.
The voltage threshold at which each group of four contact inputs will detect a closed contact input is programmable as
17 V DC for 24 V sources, 33 V DC for 48 V sources, 84 V DC for 110 to 125 V sources, and 166 V DC for 250 V sources.

NOTE
Contact outputs may be ordered as Form-A or Form-C. The Form A contacts may be connected for external circuit supervi-
sion. These contacts are provided with voltage and current monitoring circuits used to detect the loss of DC voltage in the
circuit, and the presence of DC current flowing through the contacts when the Form-A contact closes. If enabled, the cur-
rent monitoring can be used as a seal-in signal to ensure that the Form-A contact does not attempt to break the energized
inductive coil circuit and weld the output contacts.
There is no provision in the relay to detect a DC ground fault on 48 V DC control power external output. We
recommend using an external DC supply.
NOTE
Transducer input/output modules can receive input signals from external dcmA output transducers (dcmA In) or resistance
temperature detectors (RTD). Hardware and software is provided to receive signals from these external transducers and
convert these signals into a digital format for use as required.
Every transducer input/output module has a total of 24 terminal connections. These connections are arranged as three ter-
minals per row with a total of eight rows. A given row may be used for either inputs or outputs, with terminals in column "a"
having positive polarity and terminals in column "c" having negative polarity. Since an entire row is used for a single input/
output channel, the name of the channel is assigned using the module slot position and row number.
Each module also requires that a connection from an external ground bus be made to Terminal 8b. The figure below illus-
trates the transducer module types (5C, 5E, and 5F) and channel arrangements that may be ordered for the relay.
Wherever a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute with the Slot Position of the module.

A 9-pin RS232C serial port is located on the relay’s faceplate for programming with a portable (personal) computer. All that
is required to use this interface is a personal computer running the URPC software provided with the relay. Cabling for the
RS232 port is shown in the following figure for both 9 pin and 25 pin connectors.
Note that the baud rate for this port is fixed at 19200 bps.

b) RS485 PORTS
RS485 data transmission and reception are accomplished over a single twisted pair with transmit and receive data alternat-
ing over the same two wires. Through the use of these port(s), continuous monitoring and control from a remote computer,
SCADA system or PLC is possible.
To minimize errors from noise, the use of shielded twisted pair wire is recommended. Correct polarity must also be
observed. For instance, the relays must be connected with all RS485 “+” terminals connected together, and all RS485 “–”
terminals connected together. The COM terminal should be connected to the common wire inside the shield, when pro-
vided. To avoid loop currents, the shield should be grounded at one point only. Each relay should also be daisy chained to
the next one in the link. A maximum of 32 relays can be connected in this manner without exceeding driver capability. For
larger systems, additional serial channels must be added. It is also possible to use commercially available repeaters to
increase the number of relays on a single channel to more than 32. Star or stub connections should be avoided entirely.
Lightning strikes and ground surge currents can cause large momentary voltage differences between remote ends of the
3 communication link. For this reason, surge protection devices are internally provided at both communication ports. An iso-
lated power supply with an optocoupled data interface also acts to reduce noise coupling. To ensure maximum reliability, all
equipment should have similar transient protection devices installed.
Both ends of the RS485 circuit should also be terminated with an impedance as shown below.

The fiber optic communication ports allow for fast and efficient communications between relays at 10 Mbps. Optical fiber
may be connected to the relay supporting a wavelength of 820 nanometers in multimode. Optical fiber is only available for
CPU types 9C and 9D. The 9D CPU has a 10BaseF transmitter and receiver for optical fiber communications and a second
pair of identical optical fiber transmitter and receiver for redundancy.
The optical fiber sizes supported include 50/125 µm, 62.5/125 µm and 100/140 µm. The fiber optic port is designed such
that the response times will not vary for any core that is 100 µm or less in diameter. For optical power budgeting, splices are
required every 1 km for the transmitter/receiver pair (the ST type connector contributes for a connector loss of 0.2 dB). 3
When splicing optical fibers, the diameter and numerical aperture of each fiber must be the same. In order to engage or dis-
engage the ST type connector, only a quarter turn of the coupling is required.

The C60 Direct I/O feature makes use of the Type 7 series of communications modules. These modules are also used by
the L90 Line Differential Relay for inter-relay communications. The Direct I/O feature uses the communications channel(s)
provided by these modules to exchange digital state information between relays. This feature is available on all UR relays
models except for the L60 and L90 Line relays.
The communications channels are normally connected in a ring configuration as shown below. The transmitter of one mod-
ule is connected to the receiver of the next module. The transmitter of this second module is then connected to the receiver
of the next module in the ring. This is continued to form a communications ring. The figure below illustrates a ring of four UR
relays with the following connections: UR1-Tx to UR2-Rx, UR2-Tx to UR3-Rx, UR3-Tx to UR4-Rx, and UR4-Tx to UR1-Rx.
The maximum number of UR relays that can be connected in a single ring is eight.

The following diagram shows the interconnection for three UR-series relays using two independent communication chan-
nels. UR1 and UR3 have single Type 7 communication modules; UR2 has a dual-channel module. The two communication
channels can be of different types, depending on the Type 7 modules used. To allow the Direct I/O data to ‘cross-over’ from
Channel 1 to Channel 2 on UR2, the DIRECT I/O CHANNEL CROSSOVER setting should be “Enabled” on UR2. This forces UR2
to forward messages received on Rx1 out Tx2, and messages received on Rx2 out Tx1.

AWG 22 twisted shielded pair is recommended for external connections, with the shield grounded only at one end. Con-
necting the shield to Pin X1a or X6a grounds the shield since these pins are internally connected to ground. Thus, if
Pin X1a or X6a is used, do not ground at the other end. This interface module is protected by surge suppression devices.

The following figure shows the RS422 2-Terminal interface configuration at 64K baud. AWG 22 twisted shielded pair is rec-
ommended for external connections. This interface module is protected by surge suppression devices which optically iso-
lated.
SHIELD TERMINATION
The shield pins (6a and 7b) are internally connected to the ground pin (8a). Proper shield termination is as follows:
Site 1: Terminate shield to pins 6a and/or 7b; Site 2: Terminate shield to ‘COM’ pin 2b.
The clock terminating impedance should match the impedance of the line.

c) TRANSIT TIMING
The RS422 Interface accepts one clock input for Transmit Timing. It is important that the rising edge of the 64 kHz Transmit
Timing clock of the Multiplexer Interface is sampling the data in the center of the Transmit Data window. Therefore, it is
important to confirm Clock and Data Transitions to ensure Proper System Operation. For example, the following figure
shows the positive edge of the Tx Clock in the center of the Tx Data bit.
Tx Clock
Tx Data
d) RECEIVE TIMING
The RS422 Interface utilizes NRZI-MARK Modulation Code and; therefore, does not rely on an Rx Clock to recapture data.
NRZI-MARK is an edge-type, invertible, self-clocking code.
To recover the Rx Clock from the data-stream, an integrated DPLL (Digital Phase Lock Loop) circuit is utilized. The DPLL is
driven by an internal clock, which is over-sampled 16X, and uses this clock along with the data-stream to generate a data
clock that can be used as the SCC (Serial Communication Controller) receive clock.
The following figure shows the combined RS422 plus Fiber interface configuration at 64K baud. The 7L, 7M, 7N, 7P, and 74
modules are used in 2-terminal with a redundant channel or 3-terminal configurations where Channel 1 is employed via the
RS422 interface (possibly with a multiplexer) and Channel 2 via direct fiber.
3 AWG 22 twisted shielded pair is recommended for external RS422 connections and the shield should be grounded only at
one end. For the direct fiber channel, power budget issues should be addressed properly.
When using a LASER Interface, attenuators may be necessary to ensure that you do not exceed Maximum
Optical Input Power to the receiver.

The UR series IEEE C37.94 communication modules (76 and 77) are designed to interface with IEEE C37.94 compliant
digital multiplexer and/or an IEEE C37.94 compliant interface converter for use with Direct I/O applications on firmware
revision 3.3x. The IEEE C37.94 Standard defines a point to point optical link for synchronous data between a multiplexer
and a teleprotection device. This data is typically 64 kbps but the standard provides for speeds up to 64n kbps, where n = 1,
2, …12. The UR series C37.94 communication module is 64 kbps only with n fixed at 1. The frame is a valid International
Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) recommendation G.704 pattern from the standpoint of framing and data rate. The frame
is 256 bits and is repeated at a frame rate of 8000 Hz, with a resultant bit rate of 2048 kbps.
The specifications for the module are as follows:
IEEE standard: C37.94 for 1 × 64 kbps optical fiber interface
Fiber optic cable type: 50 mm or 62.5 mm core diameter optical fiber
Fiber optic mode: multi-mode
Fiber optic cable length: up to 2 km
3
Fiber optic connector: Type ST
Wavelength: 830 ±40 nm
Connection: as per all fiber optic connections, a Tx to Rx connection is required.
The UR series C37.94 communication module can be connected directly to an compliant digital multiplexer that supports
the IEEE C37.94 standard as shown below.

non-compliant digital multiplexer via an optical-to-electrical interface converter that supports the IEEE C37.94 standard as
shown below.
The UR series C37.94 communication module has six (6) switches that are used to set the clock configuration. The func-
tions of the control switches is shown below.

For the Internal Timing Mode, the system clock is generated internally; therefore, the timing switch selection should be
Internal Timing for Relay 1 and Loop Timed for Relay 2. There must be only one timing source configured.
For the Looped Timing Mode, the system clock is derived from the received line signal; therefore, the timing selection
should be in Loop Timing Mode for connections to higher order systems.
The C37.94 communications module cover removal procedure is as follows:
1. Remove the C37.94 module (76 or 77):
The ejector/inserter clips located at the top and at the bottom of each module, must be pulled simultaneously in order
to release the module for removal. Before performing this action, control power must be removed from the relay.
The original location of the module should be recorded to help ensure that the same or replacement module is inserted
into the correct slot.
2. Remove the module cover screw.
3 3. Remove the top cover by sliding it towards the rear and then lift it upwards.
4. Set the Timing Selection Switches (Channel 1, Channel 2) to the desired timing modes (see description above).
5. Replace the top cover and the cover screw.
6. Re-insert the C37.94 module Take care to ensure that the correct module type is inserted into the correct slot posi-
tion. The ejector/inserter clips located at the top and at the bottom of each module must be in the disengaged position
as the module is smoothly inserted into the slot. Once the clips have cleared the raised edge of the chassis, engage
the clips simultaneously. When the clips have locked into position, the module will be fully inserted.
The URPC software provides a graphical user interface (GUI) as one of two human interfaces to a UR device. The alternate
human interface is implemented via the device’s faceplate keypad and display (see Faceplate Interface section in this
chapter).
URPC provides a single facility to configure, monitor, maintain, and trouble-shoot the operation of relay functions, con-
nected over local or wide area communication networks. It can be used while disconnected (i.e. off-line) or connected (i.e.
on-line) to a UR device. In off-line mode, settings files can be created for eventual downloading to the device. In on-line
mode, you can communicate with the device in real-time.
The URPC software, provided with every C60 relay, can be run from any computer supporting Microsoft Windows® 95, 98,
or NT. This chapter provides a summary of the basic URPC software interface features. The URPC Help File provides
details for getting started and using the URPC software interface.
To start using the URPC software, a site definition and device definition must first be created. See the URPC Help File or
refer to the Connecting URPC with the C60 section in Chapter 1 for details.
f) FILE SUPPORT
• Execution: Any URPC file which is double clicked or opened will launch the application, or provide focus to the
already opened application. If the file was a settings file (has a URS extension) which had been removed from the Set-
tings List tree menu, it will be added back to the Settings List tree menu.
• Drag and Drop: The Site List and Settings List control bar windows are each mutually a drag source and a drop target
for device-order-code-compatible files or individual menu items. Also, the Settings List control bar window and any
Windows Explorer directory folder are each mutually a file drag source and drop target.
New files which are dropped into the Settings List window are added to the tree which is automatically sorted alphabet-
ically with respect to settings file names. Files or individual menu items which are dropped in the selected device menu
4 in the Site List window will automatically be sent to the on-line communicating device.
g) FIRMWARE UPGRADES
The firmware of a UR device can be upgraded, locally or remotely, via the URPC® software. The corresponding instructions
are provided by the URPC® Help program under the topic “Upgrading Firmware”.
Modbus addresses assigned to firmware modules, features, settings, and corresponding data items (i.e. default
values, min/max values, data type, and item size) may change slightly from version to version of firmware. The
NOTE
addresses are rearranged when new features are added or existing features are enhanced or modified. The
“EEPROM DATA ERROR” message displayed after upgrading/downgrading the firmware is a resettable, self-test
message intended to inform users that the Modbus addresses have changed with the upgraded firmware. This
message does not signal any problems when appearing after firmware upgrades.
The URPC software main window supports the following primary display components:
a. Title bar which shows the pathname of the active data view
b. Main window menu bar
c. Main window tool bar
d. Site List control bar window
e. Settings List control bar window
f. Device data view window(s), with common tool bar
g. Settings File data view window(s), with common tool bar
h. Workspace area with data view tabs
i. Status bar
The keypad/display/LED interface is one of two alternate human interfaces supported. The other alternate human interface
is implemented via the URPC software. The UR faceplate interface is available in two configurations: horizontal or vertical.
The faceplate interface consists of several functional panels.
The faceplate is hinged to allow easy access to the removable modules. There is also a removable dust cover that fits over
the faceplate which must be removed in order to access the keypad panel. The following two figures show the horizontal
and vertical arrangement of faceplate panels.

4.2.3 DISPLAY
All messages are displayed on a 2 × 20 character vacuum fluorescent display to make them visible under poor lighting con-
ditions. An optional liquid crystal display (LCD) is also available. Messages are displayed in English and do not require the
aid of an instruction manual for deciphering. While the keypad and display are not actively being used, the display will
default to defined messages. Any high priority event driven message will automatically override the default message and
appear on the display.
4.2.4 KEYPAD
Display messages are organized into ‘pages’ under the following headings: Actual Values, Settings, Commands, and Tar-
gets. The key navigates through these pages. Each heading page is broken down further into logical subgroups.
The MESSAGE keys navigate through the subgroups. The VALUE keys scroll increment or decrement
numerical setting values when in programming mode. These keys also scroll through alphanumeric values in the text edit

a) INTRODUCTION
The C60 can interface with associated circuit breakers. In many cases the application monitors the state of the breaker,
which can be presented on faceplate LEDs, along with a breaker trouble indication. Breaker operations can be manually
initiated from faceplate keypad or automatically initiated from a FlexLogic™ operand. A setting is provided to assign names
to each breaker; this user-assigned name is used for the display of related flash messages. These features are provided for
two breakers; the user may use only those portions of the design relevant to a single breaker, which must be breaker No. 1.
For the following discussion it is assumed the SETTINGS !" SYSTEM SETUP !" BREAKERS ! BREAKER n ! BREAKER FUNC-
TION setting is "Enabled" for each breaker.
For this application (setup shown below), the relay is connected and programmed for both breaker No. 1 and breaker No. 2.
The USER 1 key performs the selection of which breaker is to be operated by the USER 2 and USER 3 keys. The USER 2
key is used to manually close the breaker and the USER 3 key is used to manually open the breaker.
ENTER COMMAND This message appears when the USER 1, USER 2, or USER 3 key is pressed and a
PASSWORD COMMAND PASSWORD is required; i.e. if COMMAND PASSWORD is enabled and no com-
mands have been issued within the last 30 minutes.

In the design of UR relays, the term “element” is used to describe a feature that is based around a comparator. The com-
parator is provided with an input (or set of inputs) that is tested against a programmed setting (or group of settings) to deter-
mine if the input is within the defined range that will set the output to logic 1, also referred to as “setting the flag”. A single
comparator may make multiple tests and provide multiple outputs; for example, the time overcurrent comparator sets a
Pickup flag when the current input is above the setting and sets an Operate flag when the input current has been at a level
above the pickup setting for the time specified by the time-current curve settings. All comparators, except the Digital Ele-
ment which uses a logic state as the input, use analog parameter actual values as the input.
Elements are arranged into two classes, GROUPED and CONTROL. Each element classed as a GROUPED element is
provided with six alternate sets of settings, in setting groups numbered 1 through 6. The performance of a GROUPED ele-
ment is defined by the setting group that is active at a given time. The performance of a CONTROL element is independent
of the selected active setting group.
The main characteristics of an element are shown on the element logic diagram. This includes the input(s), settings, fixed
logic, and the output operands generated (abbreviations used on scheme logic diagrams are defined in Appendix F).
Some settings for current and voltage elements are specified in per-unit (pu) calculated quantities:
pu quantity = (actual quantity) / (base quantity)
• For current elements, the ‘base quantity’ is the nominal secondary or primary current of the CT. Where the current
source is the sum of two CTs with different ratios, the ‘base quantity’ will be the common secondary or primary current
to which the sum is scaled (i.e. normalized to the larger of the 2 rated CT inputs). For example, if CT1 = 300 / 5 A and
CT2 = 100 / 5 A, then in order to sum these, CT2 is scaled to the CT1 ratio. In this case, the ‘base quantity’ will be 5 A
secondary or 300 A primary.
• For voltage elements, the ‘base quantity’ is the nominal secondary or primary voltage of the VT.
Some settings are common to most elements and are discussed below:
• FUNCTION setting: This setting programs the element to be operational when selected as "Enabled". The factory
default is "Disabled". Once programmed to "Enabled", any element associated with the Function becomes active and
all options become available.
• NAME setting: This setting is used to uniquely identify the element.
• SOURCE setting: This setting is used to select the parameter or set of parameters to be monitored.
• PICKUP setting: For simple elements, this setting is used to program the level of the measured parameter above or
below which the pickup state is established. In more complex elements, a set of settings may be provided to define the
range of the measured parameters which will cause the element to pickup.
• PICKUP DELAY setting: This setting sets a time-delay-on-pickup, or on-delay, for the duration between the Pickup
and Operate output states.
• RESET DELAY setting: This setting is used to set a time-delay-on-dropout, or off-delay, for the duration between the
Operate output state and the return to logic 0 after the input transits outside the defined pickup range.
• BLOCK setting: The default output operand state of all comparators is a logic 0 or “flag not set”. The comparator
remains in this default state until a logic 1 is asserted at the RUN input, allowing the test to be performed. If the RUN
input changes to logic 0 at any time, the comparator returns to the default state. The RUN input is used to supervise
5 the comparator. The BLOCK input is used as one of the inputs to RUN control.
• TARGET setting: This setting is used to define the operation of an element target message. When set to Disabled, no
target message or illumination of a faceplate LED indicator is issued upon operation of the element. When set to Self-
Reset, the target message and LED indication follow the Operate state of the element, and self-resets once the oper-
ate element condition clears. When set to Latched, the target message and LED indication will remain visible after the
element output returns to logic 0 - until a RESET command is received by the relay.
• EVENTS setting: This setting is used to control whether the Pickup, Dropout or Operate states are recorded by the
event recorder. When set to Disabled, element pickup, dropout or operate are not recorded as events. When set to
Enabled, events are created for:
(Element) PKP (pickup)
(Element) DPO (dropout)
(Element) OP (operate)
The DPO event is created when the measure and decide comparator output transits from the pickup state (logic 1) to
the dropout state (logic 0). This could happen when the element is in the operate state if the reset delay time is not ‘0’.
a) BACKGROUND
The C60 may be used on systems with breaker-and-a-half or ring bus configurations. In these applications, each of the two
three-phase sets of individual phase currents (one associated with each breaker) can be used as an input to a breaker fail-
ure element. The sum of both breaker phase currents and 3I_0 residual currents may be required for the circuit relaying
and metering functions. For a three-winding transformer application, it may be required to calculate watts and vars for each
of three windings, using voltage from different sets of VTs. These requirements can be satisfied with a single UR, equipped
with sufficient CT and VT input channels, by selecting the parameter to measure. A mechanism is provided to specify the
AC parameter (or group of parameters) used as the input to protection/control comparators and some metering elements.
Selection of the parameter(s) to measure is partially performed by the design of a measuring element or protection/control
comparator by identifying the type of parameter (fundamental frequency phasor, harmonic phasor, symmetrical component,
total waveform RMS magnitude, phase-phase or phase-ground voltage, etc.) to measure. The user completes the process
by selecting the instrument transformer input channels to use and some of the parameters calculated from these channels.
The input parameters available include the summation of currents from multiple input channels. For the summed currents of
phase, 3I_0, and ground current, current from CTs with different ratios are adjusted to a single ratio before summation.
A mechanism called a "Source" configures the routing of CT and VT input channels to measurement sub-systems.
Sources, in the context of UR series relays, refer to the logical grouping of current and voltage signals such that one source
contains all the signals required to measure the load or fault in a particular power apparatus. A given source may contain all
or some of the following signals: three-phase currents, single-phase ground current, three-phase voltages and an auxiliary
voltage from a single VT for checking for synchronism.
To illustrate the concept of Sources, as applied to current inputs only, consider the breaker-and-a-half scheme below. In this
application, the current flows as shown by the arrows. Some current flows through the upper bus bar to some other location
or power equipment, and some current flows into transformer Winding 1. The current into Winding 1 is the phasor sum (or
difference) of the currents in CT1 and CT2 (whether the sum or difference is used depends on the relative polarity of the CT
connections). The same considerations apply to transformer Winding 2. The protection elements require access to the net
current for transformer protection, but some elements may need access to the individual currents from CT1 and CT2.

A CT/VT module contains up to eight input channels, numbered 1 through 8. The channel numbering corresponds to the
module terminal numbering 1 through 8 and is arranged as follows: Channels 1, 2, 3 and 4 are always provided as a group,
hereafter called a “bank,” and all four are either current or voltage, as are Channels 5, 6, 7 and 8. Channels 1, 2, 3 and 5, 6,
7 are arranged as phase A, B and C respectively. Channels 4 and 8 are either another current or voltage.
Banks are ordered sequentially from the block of lower-numbered channels to the block of higher-numbered channels, and
from the CT/VT module with the lowest slot position letter to the module with the highest slot position letter, as follows:
INCREASING SLOT POSITION LETTER -->
CT/VT MODULE 1 CT/VT MODULE 2 CT/VT MODULE 3
< bank 1 > < bank 3 > < bank 5 >
< bank 2 > < bank 4 > < bank 6 >
The UR platform allows for a maximum of three sets of three-phase voltages and six sets of three-phase currents. The
result of these restrictions leads to the maximum number of CT/VT modules in a chassis to three. The maximum number of
Sources is six. A summary of CT/VT module configurations is shown below.
ITEM MAXIMUM NUMBER
CT/VT Module 3
CT Bank (3 phase channels, 1 ground channel) 6
VT Bank (3 phase channels, 1 auxiliary channel) 3
Two levels of password security are provided: Command and Setting. Operations under password supervision are:
• COMMAND: operating the breakers via faceplate keypad, changing the state of virtual inputs, clearing the event
records, clearing the oscillography records, clearing fault reports, changing the date and time, clearing
the breaker arcing amps, clearing energy records, clearing the data logger
• SETTING: changing any setting, test mode operation
The Command and Setting passwords are defaulted to "Null" when the relay is shipped from the factory. When a password
is set to "Null", the password security feature is disabled.
Programming a password code is required to enable each access level. A password consists of 1 to 10 numerical charac- 5
ters. When a CHANGE ... PASSWORD setting is set to "Yes", the following message sequence is invoked:
1. ENTER NEW PASSWORD: ____________
2. VERIFY NEW PASSWORD: ____________
3. NEW PASSWORD HAS BEEN STORED
To gain write access to a "Restricted" setting, set ACCESS LEVEL to "Setting" and then change the setting, or attempt to
change the setting and follow the prompt to enter the programmed password. If the password is correctly entered, access
will be allowed. If no keys are pressed for longer than 30 minutes or control power is cycled, accessibility will automatically
revert to the "Restricted" level.
If an entered password is lost (or forgotten), consult the factory with the corresponding ENCRYPTED PASSWORD.
The UR provides a means to raise an alarm upon failed password entry. Should password verification fail while accessing a
password-protected level of the relay (either settings or commands), the UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS FlexLogic™ operand
is asserted. The operand can be programmed to raise an alarm via contact outputs or communications. This feature can be
used to protect against both unauthorized and accidental access attempts.
The UNAUTHORISED ACCESS operand is reset with the COMMANDS !" CLEAR RECORDS !" RESET UNAUTHORISED
ALARMScommand. Therefore, to apply this feature with security, the command level should be password-protected.
The operand does not generate events or targets. If these are required, the operand can be assigned to a digital element
programmed with event logs and/or targets enabled.
If the SETTING and COMMAND passwords are identical, this one password allows access to both commands
and settings.
NOTE
When URPC is used to access a particular level, the user will continue to have access to that level as long
as there are open windows in URPC. To re-establish the Password Security feature, all URPC windows
NOTE
must be closed for at least 30 minutes.
Some relay messaging characteristics can be modified to suit different situations using the display properties settings.
• FLASH MESSAGE TIME: Flash messages are status, warning, error, or information messages displayed for several
seconds in response to certain key presses during setting programming. These messages override any normal mes-
5 sages. The duration of a flash message on the display can be changed to accommodate different reading rates.
• DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT: If the keypad is inactive for a period of time, the relay automatically reverts to a
default message. The inactivity time is modified via this setting to ensure messages remain on the screen long enough
during programming or reading of actual values.
• DEFAULT MESSAGE INTENSITY: To extend phosphor life in the vacuum fluorescent display, the brightness can be
attenuated during default message display. During keypad interrogation, the display always operates at full brightness.
• SCREEN SAVER FEATURE and SCREEN SAVER WAIT TIME: These settings are only visible if the C60 has a liquid
crystal display (LCD) and control its backlighting. When the SCREEN SAVER FEATURE is "Enabled", the LCD backlighting
is turned off after the DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT followed by the SCREEN SAVER WAIT TIME, providing that no keys
have been pressed and no target messages are active. When a keypress occurs or a target becomes active, the LCD
backlighting is turned on.
• CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL: This setting modifies the current cut-off threshold. Very low currents (1 to 2% of the
rated value) are very susceptible to noise. Some customers prefer very low currents to display as zero, while others
prefer the current be displayed even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The C60 applies a cut-
off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured currents. If the magnitude is below the cut-off level, it is substi-
tuted with zero. This applies to phase and ground current phasors as well as true RMS values and symmetrical compo-
nents. The cut-off operation applies to quantities used for metering, protection, and control, as well as those used by
communications protocols. Note that the cut-off level for the sensitive ground input is 10 times lower that the CURRENT
CUT-OFF LEVEL setting value. Raw current samples available via oscillography are not subject to cut-off.
• VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL: This setting modifies the voltage cut-off threshold. Very low secondary voltage measure-
ments (at the fractional volt level) can be affected by noise. Some customers prefer these low voltages to be displayed
as zero, while others prefer the voltage to be displayed even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual sig-
nal. The C60 applies a cut-off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured voltages. If the magnitude is below
the cut-off level, it is substituted with zero. This operation applies to phase and auxiliary voltages, and symmetrical
components. The cut-off operation applies to quantities used for metering, protection, and control, as well as those
used by communications protocols. Raw samples of the voltages available via oscillography are not subject cut-off.
Lower the VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL and CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL with care as the relay accepts lower signals
as valid measurements. Unless dictated otherwise by a specific application, the default settings of "0.02
NOTE
pu" for CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL and "1.0 V" for VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL are recommended.
The C60 allows selected records to be cleared from user-programmable conditions with FlexLogic™ operands. Setting
user-programmable pushbuttons to clear specific records are typical applications for these commands. The C60 responds
to rising edges of the configured FlexLogic™ operands. As such, the operand must be asserted for at least 50 ms to take
effect.
Clearing records with user-programmable operands is not protected by the command password. However, user-program-
mable pushbuttons are protected by the command password. Thus, if they are used to clear records, the user-programma-
ble pushbuttons can provide extra security if required.
Application Example:
User-Programmable Pushbutton 1 is to be used to clear demand records. The following settings should be applied.

The C60 is equipped with up to 3 independent serial communication ports. The faceplate RS232 port is intended for local
use and has fixed parameters of 19200 baud and no parity. The rear COM1 port type will depend on the CPU ordered: it
may be either an Ethernet or an RS485 port. The rear COM2 port is RS485. The RS485 ports have settings for baud rate
and parity. It is important that these parameters agree with the settings used on the computer or other equipment that is
connected to these ports. Any of these ports may be connected to a personal computer running URPC. This software is
used for downloading or uploading setting files, viewing measured parameters, and upgrading the relay firmware to the lat-
est version. A maximum of 32 relays can be daisy-chained and connected to a DCS, PLC or PC using the RS485 ports.
For each RS485 port, the minimum time before the port will transmit after receiving data from a host can be
set. This feature allows operation with hosts which hold the RS485 transmitter active for some time after
NOTE
each transmission.

These messages appear only if the C60 is ordered with an Ethernet card. The ETHERNET PRI LINK MONITOR and ETHERNET
SEC LINK MONITOR settings allow internal self-test targets to be triggered when either the Primary or Secondary ethernet link
status indicates a connection loss. When both channels are healthy, the primary Ethernet link will be the active link. In the
event of a communication failure on the primary Ethernet link, the secondary link becomes the active link until the primary
link failure has been rectified. 5
The IP addresses are used with DNP/Network, Modbus/TCP, MMS/UCA2, IEC 60870-5-104, TFTP, and HTTP protocols.
The NSAP address is used with the MMS/UCA2 protocol over the OSI (CLNP/TP4) stack only. Each network protocol has
a setting for the TCP/UDP PORT NUMBER. These settings are used only in advanced network configurations and should nor-
mally be left at their default values, but may be changed if required (for example, to allow access to multiple URs behind a
router). By setting a different TCP/UDP PORT NUMBER for a given protocol on each UR, the router can map the URs to the
same external IP address. The client software (URPC, for example) must be configured to use the correct port number if
these settings are used.
When the NSAP address, any TCP/UDP Port Number, or any User Map setting (when used with DNP) is changed,
it will not become active until power to the relay has been cycled (OFF/ON).
NOTE
Do not set more than one protocol to use the same TCP/UDP PORT NUMBER, as this will result in unreliable
operation of those protocols.
WARNING
d) MODBUS PROTOCOL
PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !" MODBUS PROTOCOL
The serial communication ports utilize the Modbus protocol, unless configured for DNP operation (see the DNP Protocol
description below). This allows the URPC software to be used. The UR operates as a Modbus slave device only. When
using Modbus protocol on the RS232 port, the C60 will respond regardless of the MODBUS SLAVE ADDRESS programmed.
For the RS485 ports each C60 must have a unique address from 1 to 254. Address 0 is the broadcast address which all
Modbus slave devices listen to. Addresses do not have to be sequential, but no two devices can have the same address or
conflicts resulting in errors will occur. Generally, each device added to the link should use the next higher address starting
at 1. Refer to Appendix B for more information on the Modbus protocol.
e) DNP PROTOCOL
PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !" DNP PROTOCOL
# DNP PROTOCOL DNP PORT: Range: NONE, COM1 - RS485, COM2 - RS485, FRONT
# NONE PANEL - RS232, NETWORK
The C60 supports the Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) version 3.0. The C60 can be used as a DNP slave device con-
nected to a single DNP master (usually an RTU or a SCADA master station). Since the C60 maintains one set of DNP data
change buffers and connection information, only one DNP master should actively communicate with the C60 at one time.
The DNP PORT setting selects the communications port assigned to the DNP protocol; only a single port can be assigned.
Once DNP is assigned to a serial port, the Modbus protocol is disabled on that port. Note that COM1 can be used only in
non-ethernet UR relays. When this setting is set to “Network”, the DNP protocol can be used over either TCP/IP or UDP/IP.
Refer to Appendix E for more information on the DNP protocol. The DNP ADDRESS setting is the DNP slave address. This
number identifies the C60 on a DNP communications link. Each DNP slave should be assigned a unique address. The DNP
NETWORK CLIENT ADDRESS setting can force the C60 to respond to a maximum of five specific DNP masters.
The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE FUNCTION should be “Disabled” for RS485 applications since there is no collision avoidance
mechanism. The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE TIMEOUT sets the time the C60 waits for a DNP master to confirm an unsolicited
response. The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE MAX RETRIES setting determines the number of times the C60 retransmits an unsolic-
ited response without receiving confirmation from the master; a value of “255” allows infinite re-tries. The DNP UNSOL
RESPONSE DEST ADDRESS is the DNP address to which all unsolicited responses are sent. The IP address to which unsolic-
ited responses are sent is determined by the C60 from the current TCP connection or the most recent UDP message.
The USER MAP FOR DNP ANALOGS setting allows the large pre-defined Analog Inputs points list to be replaced by the much
smaller Modbus User Map. This can be useful for users wishing to read only selected Analog Input points from the C60.
See Appendix E for more information.
The NUMBER OF SOURCES IN ANALOG LIST setting allows the selection of the number of current/voltage source values that
are included in the Analog Inputs points list. This allows the list to be customized to contain data for only the sources that 5
are configured. This setting is relevant only when the User Map is not used.
The DNP SCALE FACTOR settings are numbers used to scale Analog Input point values. These settings group the C60 Ana-
log Input data into types: current, voltage, power, energy, and other. Each setting represents the scale factor for all Analog
Input points of that type. For example, if the DNP VOLTAGE SCALE FACTOR setting is set to a value of 1000, all DNP Analog
Input points that are voltages will be returned with values 1000 times smaller (e.g. a value of 72000 V on the C60 will be
returned as 72). These settings are useful when Analog Input values must be adjusted to fit within certain ranges in DNP
masters. Note that a scale factor of 0.1 is equivalent to a multiplier of 10 (i.e. the value will be 10 times larger).
The DNP DEFAULT DEADBAND settings determine when to trigger unsolicited responses containing Analog Input data. These
settings group the C60 Analog Input data into types: current, voltage, power, energy, and other. Each setting represents the
default deadband value for all Analog Input points of that type. For example, to trigger unsolicited responses from the C60
when any current values change by 15 A, the DNP CURRENT DEFAULT DEADBAND setting should be set to “15”. Note that
these settings are the deadband default values. DNP Object 34 points can be used to change deadband values, from the
default, for each individual DNP Analog Input point. Whenever power is removed and re-applied to the C60, the default
deadbands will be in effect.
The DNP TIME SYNC IIN PERIOD setting determines how often the Need Time Internal Indication (IIN) bit is set by the C60.
Changing this time allows the DNP master to send time synchronization commands more or less often, as required.
The DNP MESSAGE FRAGMENT SIZE setting determines the size, in bytes, at which message fragmentation occurs. Large
fragment sizes allow for more efficient throughput; smaller fragment sizes cause more application layer confirmations to be
necessary which can provide for more robust data transfer over noisy communication channels.
The DNP BINARY INPUTS USER MAP setting allows for the creation of a custom DNP Binary Inputs points list. The default DNP
Binary Inputs list on the C60 contains 928 points representing various binary states (contact inputs and outputs, virtual
inputs and outputs, protection element states, etc.). If not all of these points are required in the DNP master, a custom
Binary Inputs points list can be created by selecting up to 58 blocks of 16 points. Each block represents 16 Binary Input
points. Block 1 represents Binary Input points 0 to 15, block 2 represents Binary Input points 16 to 31, block 3 represents
Binary Input points 32 to 47, etc. The minimum number of Binary Input points that can be selected is 16 (1 block). If all of
the BIN INPUT BLOCK X settings are set to “Not Used”, the standard list of 928 points will be in effect. The C60 will form the
Binary Inputs points list from the BIN INPUT BLOCK X settings up to the first occurrence of a setting value of “Not Used”.
When using the User Maps for DNP data points (Analog Inputs and/or Binary Inputs) for relays with ether-
net installed, check the “DNP Points Lists” C60 web page to ensure the desired points lists are created.
NOTE
This web page can be viewed using a web browser by entering the C60 IP address to access the C60 “Main
Menu”, then by selecting the “Device Information Menu” > “DNP Points Lists” menu item.
f) UCA/MMS PROTOCOL
PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !" UCA/MMS PROTOCOL
# UCA/MMS PROTOCOL DEFAULT GOOSE UPDATE Range: 1 to 60 s in steps of 1. See UserSt Bit Pairs in the
# TIME: 60 s Remote Outputs section of this Chapter.
The C60 supports the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) protocol as specified by the Utility Communication
Architecture (UCA). UCA/MMS is supported over two protocol stacks: TCP/IP over ethernet and TP4/CLNP (OSI) over eth-
ernet. The C60 operates as a UCA/MMS server. The Remote Inputs/Outputs section in this chapter describe the peer-to-
peer GOOSE message scheme.
5 The UCA LOGICAL DEVICE setting represents the MMS domain name (UCA logical device) where all UCA objects are
located. The GOOSE FUNCTION setting allows for the blocking of GOOSE messages from the C60. This can be used during
testing or to prevent the relay from sending GOOSE messages during normal operation. The GLOBE.ST.LocRemDS setting
selects a FlexLogic™ operand to provide the state of the UCA GLOBE.ST.LocRemDS data item. Refer to Appendix C:
UCA/MMS Communications for additional details on the C60 UCA/MMS support.
The C60 contains an embedded web server and is capable of transferring web pages to a web browser such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. This feature is available only if the C60 has the ethernet option installed. The web
pages are organized as a series of menus that can be accessed starting at the C60 “Main Menu”. Web pages are available
showing DNP and IEC 60870-5-104 points lists, Modbus registers, Event Records, Fault Reports, etc. The web pages can
be accessed by connecting the UR and a computer to an ethernet network. The Main Menu will be displayed in the web
browser on the computer simply by entering the IP address of the C60 into the “Address” box on the web browser.
h) TFTP PROTOCOL
PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !" TFTP PROTOCOL
The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) can be used to transfer files from the UR over a network. The C60 operates as a
TFTP server. TFTP client software is available from various sources, including Microsoft Windows NT. The dir.txt file
obtained from the C60 contains a list and description of all available files (event records, oscillography, etc.).
The C60 supports the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol. The C60 can be used as an IEC 60870-5-104 slave device connected to
a single master (usually either an RTU or a SCADA master station). Since the C60 maintains one set of IEC 60870-5-104
data change buffers, only one master should actively communicate with the C60 at one time. For situations where a second
master is active in a “hot standby” configuration, the UR supports a second IEC 60870-5-104 connection providing the
standby master sends only IEC 60870-5-104 Test Frame Activation messages for as long as the primary master is active.
The NUMBER OF SOURCES IN MMENC1 LIST setting allows the selection of the number of current/voltage source values that
are included in the M_ME_NC_1 (Measured value, short floating point) Analog points list. This allows the list to be custom-
ized to contain data for only the sources that are configured.
The IEC ------- DEFAULT THRESHOLD settings are the values used by the UR to determine when to trigger spontaneous
responses containing M_ME_NC_1 analog data. These settings group the UR analog data into types: current, voltage,
power, energy, and other. Each setting represents the default threshold value for all M_ME_NC_1 analog points of that
type. For example, in order to trigger spontaneous responses from the UR when any current values change by 15 A, the
IEC CURRENT DEFAULT THRESHOLD setting should be set to 15. Note that these settings are the default values of the dead-
bands. P_ME_NC_1 (Parameter of measured value, short floating point value) points can be used to change threshold val-
ues, from the default, for each individual M_ME_NC_1 analog point. Whenever power is removed and re-applied to the UR,
the default thresholds will be in effect.
The IEC 60870-5-104 and DNP protocols can not be used at the same time. When the IEC 60870-5-104 FUNC-
TION setting is set to “Enabled”, the DNP protocol will not be operational. When this setting is changed it
NOTE
will not become active until power to the relay has been cycled (Off/On).
j) SNTP PROTOCOL
PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !" SNTP PROTOCOL
The C60 supports the Simple Network Time Protocol specified in RFC-2030. With SNTP, the C60 can obtain clock time
over an Ethernet network. The C60 acts as an SNTP client to receive time values from an SNTP/NTP server, usually a ded-
icated product using a GPS receiver to provide an accurate time. Both unicast and broadcast SNTP are supported.
If SNTP functionality is enabled at the same time as IRIG-B, the IRIG-B signal provides the time value to the C60 clock for
as long as a valid signal is present. If the IRIG-B signal is removed, the time obtained from the SNTP server is used. If
either SNTP or IRIG-B is enabled, the C60 clock value cannot be changed using the front panel keypad.
To use SNTP in unicast mode, SNTP SERVER IP ADDR must be set to the SNTP/NTP server IP address. Once this address is
set and SNTP FUNCTION is “Enabled”, the C60 attempts to obtain time values from the SNTP/NTP server. Since many time
values are obtained and averaged, it generally takes three to four minutes until the C60 clock is closely synchronized with
the SNTP/NTP server. It may take up to one minute for the C60 to signal an SNTP self-test error if the server is offline.
To use SNTP in broadcast mode, set the SNTP SERVER IP ADDR setting to “0.0.0.0” and SNTP FUNCTION to “Enabled”. The
C60 then listens to SNTP messages sent to the “all ones” broadcast address for the subnet. The C60 waits up to eighteen
minutes (>1024 seconds) without receiving an SNTP broadcast message before signaling an SNTP self-test error.
5 The UR does not support the multicast or anycast SNTP functionality.
The Modbus User Map provides read-only access for up to 256 registers. To obtain a memory map value, enter the desired
address in the ADDRESS line (this value must be converted from hex to decimal format). The corresponding value is dis-
played in the VALUE line. A value of “0” in subsequent register ADDRESS lines automatically returns values for the previous
ADDRESS lines incremented by “1”. An address value of “0” in the initial register means “none” and values of “0” will be dis-
played for all registers. Different ADDRESS values can be entered as required in any of the register positions.
These settings can also be used with the DNP protocol. See the DNP Analog Input Points section in Appen-
dix E for details.
NOTE
# REAL TIME IRIG-B SIGNAL TYPE: Range: None, DC Shift, Amplitude Modulated
# CLOCK None
The date and time for the relay clock can be synchronized to other relays using an IRIG-B signal. It has the same accuracy
as an electronic watch, approximately ±1 minute per month. An IRIG-B signal may be connected to the relay to synchronize
the clock to a known time base and to other relays. If an IRIG-B signal is used, only the current year needs to be entered.
See also the COMMANDS " SET DATE AND TIME menu for manually setting the relay clock.
The fault report stores data, in non-volatile memory, pertinent to an event when triggered. The captured data includes:
• Name of the relay, programmed by the user
• Date and time of trigger
• Name of trigger (specific operand)
• Active setting group
• Pre-fault current and voltage phasors (one-quarter cycle before the trigger)
• Fault current and voltage phasors (three-quarter cycle after the trigger)
• Target Messages that are set at the time of triggering
• Events (9 before trigger and 7 after trigger)
The captured data also includes the fault type and the distance to the fault location, as well as the reclose shot number.
The trigger can be any FlexLogic™ operand, but in most applications it is expected to be the same operand, usually a vir-
tual output, that is used to drive an output relay to trip a breaker. To prevent the overwriting of fault events, the disturbance
detector should not be used to trigger a fault report.
If a number of protection elements are ORed to create a fault report trigger, the first operation of any element causing the 5
OR gate output to become high triggers a fault report. However, If other elements operate during the fault and the first oper-
ated element has not been reset (the OR gate output is still high), the fault report is not triggered again. Considering the
reset time of protection elements, there is very little chance that fault report can be triggered twice in this manner. As the
fault report must capture a usable amount of pre and post-fault data, it can not be triggered faster than every 20 ms.
Each fault report is stored as a file; the relay capacity is ten files. An eleventh trigger overwrites the oldest file. The operand
selected as the fault report trigger automatically triggers an oscillography record which can also be triggered independently.
URPC is required to view all captured data. The relay faceplate display can be used to view the date and time of trigger, the
fault type, the distance location of the fault, and the reclose shot number
The FAULT REPORT SOURCE setting selects the Source for input currents and voltages and disturbance detection. The FAULT
REPORT TRIG setting assigns the FlexLogic™ operand representing the protection element/elements requiring operational
fault location calculations. The distance to fault calculations are initiated by this signal.

5.2.8 OSCILLOGRAPHY
# OSCILLOGRAPHY
#
↓
ANALOG CHANNEL 16: Range: Off, any FlexAnalog parameter
Off See Appendix A: FlexAnalog Parameters for complete list.
Oscillography records contain waveforms captured at the sampling rate as well as other relay data at the point of trigger.
Oscillography records are triggered by a programmable FlexLogic™ operand. Multiple oscillography records may be cap-
tured simultaneously.
The NUMBER OF RECORDS is selectable, but the number of cycles captured in a single record varies considerably based on
other factors such as sample rate and the number of operational CT/VT modules. There is a fixed amount of data storage
for oscillography; the more data captured, the less the number of cycles captured per record. See the ACTUAL VALUES !"
RECORDS !" OSCILLOGRAPHY menu to view the number of cycles captured per record. The following table provides sam-
ple configurations with corresponding cycles/record.
A new record may automatically overwrite an older record if TRIGGER MODE is set to “Automatic Overwrite”.
The TRIGGER POSITION is programmable as a percent of the total buffer size (e.g. 10%, 50%, 75%, etc.). A trigger position
of 25% consists of 25% pre- and 75% post-trigger data.
The TRIGGER SOURCE is always captured in oscillography and may be any FlexLogic™ parameter (element state, contact
input, virtual output, etc.). The relay sampling rate is 64 samples per cycle.
The AC INPUT WAVEFORMS setting determines the sampling rate at which AC input signals (i.e. current and voltage) are
stored. Reducing the sampling rate allows longer records to be stored. This setting has no effect on the internal sampling
rate of the relay which is always 64 samples per cycle, i.e. it has no effect on the fundamental calculations of the device.
An ANALOG CHANNEL setting selects the metering actual value recorded in an oscillography trace. The length of each oscil-
lography trace depends in part on the number of parameters selected here. Parameters set to ‘Off’ are ignored. The param-
5
eters available in a given relay are dependent on: (a) the type of relay, (b) the type and number of CT/VT hardware modules
installed, and (c) the type and number of Analog Input hardware modules installed. Upon startup, the relay will automati-
cally prepare the parameter list. A list of all possible analog metering actual value parameters is presented in Appendix A:
FlexAnalog Parameters. The parameter index number shown in any of the tables is used to expedite the selection of the
parameter on the relay display. It can be quite time-consuming to scan through the list of parameters via the relay keypad/
display - entering this number via the relay keypad will cause the corresponding parameter to be displayed.
All eight CT/VT module channels are stored in the oscillography file. The CT/VT module channels are named as follows:
<slot_letter><terminal_number>—<I or V><phase A, B, or C, or 4th input>
The fourth current input in a bank is called IG, and the fourth voltage input in a bank is called VX. For example, F2-IB desig-
nates the IB signal on Terminal 2 of the CT/VT module in slot F. If there are no CT/VT modules and Analog Input modules,
no analog traces will appear in the file; only the digital traces will appear.
When the NUMBER OF RECORDS setting is altered, all oscillography records will be CLEARED.

The data logger samples and records up to 16 analog parameters at a user-defined sampling rate. This recorded data may
be downloaded to the URPC software and displayed with ‘parameters’ on the vertical axis and ‘time’ on the horizontal axis.
All data is stored in non-volatile memory, meaning that the information is retained when power to the relay is lost.
For a fixed sampling rate, the data logger can be configured with a few channels over a long period or a larger number of
channels for a shorter period. The relay automatically partitions the available memory between the channels in use.
Changing any setting affecting Data Logger operation will clear any data that is currently in the log.

• DATA LOGGER RATE: This setting selects the time interval at which the actual value data will be recorded.
• DATA LOGGER CHNL 1 (16): This setting selects the metering actual value that is to be recorded in Channel 1(16) of
the data log. The parameters available in a given relay are dependent on: the type of relay, the type and number of CT/
VT hardware modules installed, and the type and number of Analog Input hardware modules installed. Upon startup,
the relay will automatically prepare the parameter list. A list of all possible analog metering actual value parameters is
shown in Appendix A: Flexanalog Parameters. The parameter index number shown in any of the tables is used to
expedite the selection of the parameter on the relay display. It can be quite time-consuming to scan through the list of
parameters via the relay keypad/display – entering this number via the relay keypad will cause the corresponding
parameter to be displayed.
• DATA LOGGER CONFIG: This display presents the total amount of time the Data Logger can record the channels not
selected to “Off” without over-writing old data.
5.2.10 DEMAND
The relay measures current demand on each phase, and three-phase demand for real, reactive, and apparent power. Cur-
rent and Power methods can be chosen separately for the convenience of the user. Settings are provided to allow the user
to emulate some common electrical utility demand measuring techniques, for statistical or control purposes. If the CRNT
DEMAND METHOD is set to "Block Interval" and the DEMAND TRIGGER is set to “Off”, Method 2 is used (see below). If
DEMAND TRIGGER is assigned to any other FlexLogic™ operand, Method 2a is used (see below).
The relay can be set to calculate demand by any of three methods as described below:
CALCULATION METHOD 1: THERMAL EXPONENTIAL
This method emulates the action of an analog peak recording thermal demand meter. The relay measures the quantity
(RMS current, real power, reactive power, or apparent power) on each phase every second, and assumes the circuit quan-
tity remains at this value until updated by the next measurement. It calculates the 'thermal demand equivalent' based on the
following equation:
d(t) = D(1 – e–kt) d = demand value after applying input quantity for time t (in minutes)
D = input quantity (constant)

PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" USER-PROGRAMMABLE LEDS ! LED TEST
When enabled, the LED Test can be initiated from any digital input or user-programmable condition such as user-program-
mable pushbutton. The control operand is configured under the LED TEST CONTROL setting. The test covers all LEDs,
including the LEDs of the optional user-programmable pushbuttons.
The test consists of three stages.
Stage 1: All 62 LEDs on the relay are illuminated. This is a quick test to verify if any of the LEDs is “burned”. This stage
lasts as long as the control input is on, up to a maximum of 1 minute. After 1 minute, the test will end.
Stage 2: All the LEDs are turned off, and then one LED at a time turns on for 1 second, then back off. The test routine
starts at the top left panel, moving from the top to bottom of each LED column. This test checks for hardware failures
that lead to more than one LED being turned on from a single logic point. This stage can be interrupted at any time.
Stage 3: All the LEDs are turned on. One LED at a time turns off for 1 second, then back on. The test routine starts at
the top left panel moving from top to bottom of each column of the LEDs. This test checks for hardware failures that
lead to more than one LED being turned off from a single logic point. This stage can be interrupted at any time.
When testing is in progress, the LEDs are controlled by the test sequence, rather than the protection, control, and monitor-
ing features. However, the LED control mechanism accepts all the changes to LED states generated by the relay and
stores the actual LED states (On or Off) in memory. When the test completes, the LEDs reflect the actual state resulting
from relay response during testing. The Reset pushbutton will not clear any targets when the LED Test is in progress.
A dedicated FlexLogic™ operand, LED TEST IN PROGRESS, is set for the duration of the test. When the test sequence is ini-
tiated, the LED Test Initiated event is stored in the Event Recorder.
The entire test procedure is user-controlled. In particular, Stage 1 can last as long as necessary, and Stages 2 and 3 can be
interrupted. The test responds to the position and rising edges of the control input defined by the LED TEST CONTROL set-
ting. The control pulses must last at least 250 ms to take effect. The following diagram explains how the test is executed.

The Trip and Alarm LEDs are on LED Panel 1. Each indicator can be programmed to become illuminated when the
selected FlexLogic™ operand is in the Logic 1 state.
There are 48 amber LEDs across the relay faceplate LED panels. Each of these indicators can be programmed to illumi-
nate when the selected FlexLogic™ operand is in the Logic 1 state.
• LEDs 1 through 24 inclusive are on LED Panel 2; LEDs 25 through 48 inclusive are on LED Panel 3.
Refer to the LED Indicators section in Chapter 4 for the locations of these indexed LEDs. This menu selects the operands
to control these LEDs. Support for applying user-customized labels to these LEDs is provided. If the LED X TYPE setting is
5 “Self-Reset” (default setting), the LED illumination will track the state of the selected LED operand. If the LED X TYPE setting
is ‘Latched’, the LED, once lit, remains so until reset by the faceplate RESET button, from a remote device via a communi-
cations channel, or from any programmed operand, even if the LED operand state de-asserts.
Refer to the Control of Setting Groups example in the Control Elements section of this Chapter for group activation.
All major self-test alarms are reported automatically with their corresponding FlexLogic™ operands, events, and targets.
Most of the Minor Alarms can be disabled if desired. 5
When in the “Disabled” mode, minor alarms will not assert a FlexLogic™ operand, write to the event recorder, display target
messages. Moreover, they will not trigger the ANY MINOR ALARM or ANY SELF-TEST messages. When in the “Enabled” mode,
minor alarms continue to function along with other major and minor alarms. Refer to the Relay Self-Tests section in Chapter
7 for additional information on major and minor self-test alarms.
PATH: SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" CONTROL PUSHBUTTONS ! CONTROL PUSHBUTTON 1(3)
The three standard pushbuttons located on the top left panel of the faceplate are user-programmable and can be used for
various applications such as performing an LED test, switching setting groups, and invoking and scrolling though user-pro-
grammable displays, etc. Firmware revisions 3.2x and older use these three pushbuttons for manual breaker control. This
functionality has been retained – if the Breaker Control feature is configured to use the three pushbuttons, they cannot be
used as user-programmable control pushbuttons. The location of the control pushbuttons in shown below.
The control pushbuttons are typically not used for critical operations. As such, they are not protected by the control pass-
word. However, by supervising their output operands, the user can dynamically enable or disable the control pushbuttons
for security reasons.
Each control pushbutton asserts its own FlexLogic™ operand, CONTROL PUSHBTN 1(3) ON. These operands should be
configured appropriately to perform the desired function. The operand remains asserted as long as the pushbutton is
pressed and resets when the pushbutton is released. A dropout delay of 100 ms is incorporated to ensure fast pushbutton
manipulation will be recognized by various features that may use control pushbuttons as inputs.
An event is logged in the Event Record (as per used setting) when a control pushbutton is pressed; no event is logged
when the pushbutton is released. The faceplate keys (including control keys) cannot be operated simultaneously – a given
key must be released before the next one can be pressed.
The control pushbuttons become user-programmable only if the Breaker Control feature is not configured for manual con-
trol via the User 1 through User 3 pushbuttons as shown below. Typically, if configured for manual control, the Breaker Con-
trol feature will use the larger, optional user-programmable pushbuttons, making the control pushbuttons available for any

so that 16 states may be read out in a single Modbus register. The state bits can be configured so that all of the states
which are of interest to the user are available in a minimum number of Modbus registers.
The state bits may be read out in the "Flex States" register array beginning at Modbus address 900 hex. 16 states are
packed into each register, with the lowest-numbered state in the lowest-order bit. There are 16 registers in total to accom-
modate the 256 state bits.

sequence in the USER DISPLAYS menu (between the TARGETS and ACTUAL VALUES top-level menus). The sub-menus facili-
tate text entry and Modbus Register data pointer options for defining the User Display content.
Once programmed, the user-definable displays can be viewed in two ways.
• KEYPAD: Use the Menu key to select the USER DISPLAYS menu item to access the first user-definable display (note
that only the programmed screens are displayed). The screens can be scrolled using the Up and Down keys. The dis-
play disappears after the default message time-out period specified by the PRODUCT SETUP !" DISPLAY PROPERTIES
!" DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT setting.
• USER-PROGRAMMABLE CONTROL INPUT: The user-definable displays also respond to the INVOKE AND SCROLL
setting. Any FlexLogic™ operand (in particular, the user-programmable pushbutton operands), can be used to navi-
gate the programmed displays.
On the rising edge of the configured operand (such as when the pushbutton is pressed), the displays are invoked by
showing the last user-definable display shown during the previous activity. From this moment onward, the operand
acts exactly as the Down key and allows scrolling through the configured displays. The last display wraps up to the first
one. The INVOKE AND SCROLL input and the Down keypad key operate concurrently.
The INVOKE AND SCROLL input is active since the last activity for the time specified by the DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT
setting. When this time expires, the feature resets and the next activity of the input invokes the first display. The INVOKE
AND SCROLL pulses must last for at least 250 ms to take effect.
Any existing system display can be automatically copied into an available User Display by selecting the existing display and
pressing the key. The display will then prompt ADD TO USER DISPLAY LIST?. After selecting “Yes”, a message indi-
cates that the selected display has been added to the user display list. When this type of entry occurs, the sub-menus are
automatically configured with the proper content – this content may subsequently be edited.
This menu is used to enter user-defined text and/or user-selected Modbus-registered data fields into the particular User 5
Display. Each User Display consists of two 20-character lines (top and bottom). The Tilde (~) character is used to mark the
start of a data field - the length of the data field needs to be accounted for. Up to 5 separate data fields (ITEM 1(5)) can be
entered in a User Display - the nth Tilde (~) refers to the nth item.
A User Display may be entered from the faceplate keypad or the URPC interface (preferred for convenience). The following
procedure shows how to enter text characters in the top and bottom lines from the faceplate keypad:
1. Select the line to be edited.
2. Press the key to enter text edit mode.
3. Use either Value key to scroll through the characters. A space is selected like a character.
4. Press the key to advance the cursor to the next position.
5. Repeat step 3 and continue entering characters until the desired text is displayed.
6. The key may be pressed at any time for context sensitive help information.
7. Press the key to store the new settings.
To enter a numerical value for any of the 5 items (the decimal form of the selected Modbus address) from the faceplate key-
pad, use the number keypad. Use the value of ‘0’ for any items not being used. Use the key at any selected system
display (Setting, Actual Value, or Command) which has a Modbus address, to view the hexadecimal form of the Modbus
address, then manually convert it to decimal form before entering it (URPC usage conveniently facilitates this conversion).
Use the key to go to the User Displays menu to view the user-defined content. The current user displays will show
in sequence, changing every 4 seconds. While viewing a User Display, press the key and then select the ‘Yes”
option to remove the display from the user display list. Use the key again to exit the User Displays menu.

Direct I/Os are intended for exchange of status information (inputs and outputs) between UR relays connected directly via
Type-7 UR digital communications cards. The mechanism is very similar to UCA GOOSE, except that communications
takes place over a non-switchable isolated network and is optimized for speed. On Type 7 cards that support two channels,
Direct Output messages are sent from both channels simultaneously. This effectively sends Direct Output messages both
ways around a ring configuration. On Type 7 cards that support one channel, Direct Output messages are sent only in one
direction. Messages will be resent (forwarded) when it is determined that the message did not originate at the receiver.
Direct Output message timing is similar to GOOSE message timing. Integrity messages (with no state changes) are sent at
least every 500 ms. Messages with state changes are sent within the main pass scanning the inputs and asserting the out-
puts unless the communication channel bandwidth has been exceeded. Two Self-Tests are performed and signaled by the
following FlexLogic™ operands:
1. DIRECT RING BREAK (Direct I/O Ring Break). This FlexLogic™ operand indicates that Direct Output messages sent
from a UR are not being received back by the UR.
2. DIRECT DEVICE X OFF (Direct Device Offline). This FlexLogic™ operand indicates that Direct Output messages from
at least one Direct Device are not being received.
Direct I/O settings are similar to Remote I/O settings. The equivalent of the Remote Device name strings for Direct I/O, is
the Direct Output Device ID.
The DIRECT OUTPUT DEVICE ID identifies this UR in all Direct Output messages. All UR IEDs in a ring should have unique
numbers assigned. The IED ID is used to identify the sender of the Direct I/O message.
If the Direct I/O scheme is configured to operate in a ring (DIRECT I/O RING CONFIGURATION: "Yes"), all Direct Output mes-
sages should be received back. If not, the Direct I/O Ring Break Self Test is triggered. The self-test error is signaled by the
DIRECT RING BREAK FlexLogic™ operand.
Select the DIRECT I/O DATA RATE to match the capabilities of the communications channel. Back-to-back connections of the
local relays may be set to 128 kbps. All IEDs communicating over Direct I/Os must be set to the same data rate. UR IEDs
equipped with dual-channel communications cards apply the same data rate to both channels. Delivery time for Direct I/O
messages is approximately 0.2 of a power system cycle at 128 kbps and 0.4 of a power system cycle at 64 kbps, per each
“bridge”.
The DIRECT I/O CHANNEL CROSSOVER setting applies to C60s with dual-channel communication cards and allows crossing
5
over messages from Channel 1 to Channel 2. This places all UR IEDs into one Direct I/O network regardless of the physical
media of the two communication channels.
The following application examples illustrate the basic concepts for Direct I/O configuration. Please refer to the Inputs/Out-
puts section later in this chapter for information on configuring FlexLogic™ operands (flags, bits) to be exchanged.
Example 1: Extending the I/O Capabilities of a UR relay
Consider an application that requires additional quantities of digital inputs and/or output contacts and/or lines of program-
mable logic that exceed the capabilities of a single UR chassis. The problem is solved by adding an extra UR IED, such as
the C30, to satisfy the additional I/Os and programmable logic requirements. The two IEDs are connected via single-chan-
nel digital communication cards as shown in the figure below.

The message delivery time is about 0.2 of power cycle in both ways (at 128 kbps); i.e., from Device 1 to Device 2, and from
Device 2 to Device 1. Different communications cards can be selected by the user for this back-to-back connection (fiber,
G.703, or RS422).
Example 2: Interlocking Busbar Protection
A simple interlocking busbar protection scheme could be accomplished by sending a blocking signal from downstream
devices, say 2, 3, and 4, to the upstream device that monitors a single incomer of the busbar, as shown below.

The C60 checks integrity of the Direct I/O communication ring by counting unreturned messages. In the ring configuration,
all messages originating at a given device should return within a pre-defined period of time. The Unreturned Messages
Alarm function is available for monitoring the integrity of the communication ring by tracking the rate of unreturned mes-
sages. This function counts all the outgoing messages and a separate counter adds the messages have failed to return.
When the unreturned messages counter reaches the user-definable level specified by the UNRET MSGS ALARM CH1 THRESH-
OLD setting and within the user-defined message count UNRET MSGS ALARM CH1 COUNT, the DIR IO CH1 UNRET ALM Flex-
Logic™ operand is set.
When the total message counter reaches the user-defined maximum specified by the UNRET MSGS ALARM CH1 MESSAGE
COUNT setting, both the counters reset and the monitoring process is restarted.
The operand shall be configured to drive an output contact, user-programmable LED, or selected communication-based
output. Latching and acknowledging conditions, if required, should be programmed accordingly.
The Unreturned Messages Alarm function is available on a per-channel basis and is active only in the ring configuration. 5

5.2.18 INSTALLATION
To safeguard against the installation of a relay without any entered settings, the unit will not allow signaling of any output
relay until RELAY SETTINGS is set to "Programmed". This setting is defaulted to "Not Programmed" when at the factory. The
UNIT NOT PROGRAMMED self-test error message is displayed until the relay is put into the "Programmed" state.
The RELAY NAME setting allows the user to uniquely identify a relay. This name will appear on generated reports. This name
is also used to identify specific devices which are engaged in automatically sending/receiving data over the Ethernet com-
munications channel using the UCA2/MMS protocol.
a) CURRENT BANKS
PATH: SETTINGS !" SYSTEM SETUP ! AC INPUTS ! CURRENT BANK F1(M5)
Because energy parameters are accumulated, these values should be recorded and then reset immediately
prior to changing CT characteristics.
NOTE
Four banks of phase/ground CTs can be set, where the current banks are denoted in the following format (X represents the
module slot position letter):
Xa, where X = {F, M} and a = {1, 5}.
See the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for additional details.
These settings are critical for all features that have settings dependent on current measurements. When the relay is
5 ordered, the CT module must be specified to include a standard or sensitive ground input. As the phase CTs are connected
in Wye (star), the calculated phasor sum of the three phase currents (IA + IB + IC = Neutral Current = 3Io) is used as the
input for the neutral overcurrent elements. In addition, a zero-sequence (core balance) CT which senses current in all of the
circuit primary conductors, or a CT in a neutral grounding conductor may also be used. For this configuration, the ground
CT primary rating must be entered. To detect low level ground fault currents, the sensitive ground input may be used. In this
case, the sensitive ground CT primary rating must be entered. Refer to Chapter 3 for more details on CT connections.
Enter the rated CT primary current values. For both 1000:5 and 1000:1 CTs, the entry would be 1000. For correct opera-
tion, the CT secondary rating must match the setting (which must also correspond to the specific CT connections used).
The following example illustrates how multiple CT inputs (current banks) are summed as one source current. Given If the
following current banks:
F1: CT bank with 500:1 ratio; F5: CT bank with 1000: ratio; M1: CT bank with 800:1 ratio
The following rule applies:
SRC 1 = F1 + F5 + M1 (EQ 5.1)
1 pu is the highest primary current. In this case, 1000 is entered and the secondary current from the 500:1 ratio CT will be
adjusted to that created by a 1000:1 CT before summation. If a protection element is set up to act on SRC 1 currents, then
a pickup level of 1 pu will operate on 1000 A primary.
The same rule applies for current sums from CTs with different secondary taps (5 A and 1 A).
b) VOLTAGE BANKS
PATH: SETTINGS !" SYSTEM SETUP ! AC INPUTS !" VOLTAGE BANK F5(M5)
Because energy parameters are accumulated, these values should be recorded and then reset immediately
prior to changing VT characteristics.
CAUTION
Two banks of phase/auxiliary VTs can be set, where voltage banks are denoted in the following format (X represents the
module slot position letter):
Xa, where X = {F, M} and a = {5}.
See the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for additional details.
5
With VTs installed, the relay can perform voltage measurements as well as power calculations. Enter the PHASE VT F5 CON-
NECTION made to the system as “Wye” or “Delta”. An open-delta source VT connection would be entered as “Delta”. See
the Typical Wiring Diagram in Chapter 3 for details.
The nominal PHASE VT F5 SECONDARY voltage setting is the voltage across the relay input terminals when nominal
voltage is applied to the VT primary.
NOTE
For example, on a system with a 13.8 kV nominal primary voltage and with a 14400:120 volt VT in a Delta connec-
tion, the secondary voltage would be 115, i.e. (13800 / 14400) × 120. For a Wye connection, the voltage value
entered must be the phase to neutral voltage which would be 115 / 3 = 66.4.
On a 14.4 kV system with a Delta connection and a VT primary to secondary turns ratio of 14400:120, the voltage
value entered would be 120, i.e. 14400 / 120.
The power system NOMINAL FREQUENCY value is used as a default to set the digital sampling rate if the system frequency
cannot be measured from available signals. This may happen if the signals are not present or are heavily distorted. Before
reverting to the nominal frequency, the frequency tracking algorithm holds the last valid frequency measurement for a safe
period of time while waiting for the signals to reappear or for the distortions to decay.
The phase sequence of the power system is required to properly calculate sequence components and power parameters.
The PHASE ROTATION setting matches the power system phase sequence. Note that this setting informs the relay of the
actual system phase sequence, either ABC or ACB. CT and VT inputs on the relay, labeled as A, B, and C, must be con-
nected to system phases A, B, and C for correct operation.
The FREQUENCY AND PHASE REFERENCE setting determines which signal source is used (and hence which AC signal) for
phase angle reference. The AC signal used is prioritized based on the AC inputs that are configured for the signal source:
phase voltages takes precedence, followed by auxiliary voltage, then phase currents, and finally ground current.
For three phase selection, phase A is used for angle referencing ( V ANGLE REF = V A ), while Clarke transformation of the
phase signals is used for frequency metering and tracking ( V FREQUENCY = ( 2V A – V B – V C ) ⁄ 3 ) for better performance dur-
ing fault, open pole, and VT and CT fail conditions.
The phase reference and frequency tracking AC signals are selected based upon the Source configuration, regardless of
whether or not a particular signal is actually applied to the relay.
Phase angle of the reference signal will always display zero degrees and all other phase angles will be relative to this sig-
nal. If the pre-selected reference signal is not measurable at a given time, the phase angles are not referenced.
The phase angle referencing is done via a phase locked loop, which can synchronize independent UR relays if they have
the same AC signal reference. These results in very precise correlation of time tagging in the event recorder between differ-
ent UR relays provided the relays have an IRIG-B connection.
FREQUENCY TRACKING should only be set to "Disabled" in very unusual circumstances; consult the factory for spe-
cial variable-frequency applications.
NOTE
5 PATH: SETTINGS !" SYSTEM SETUP !" SIGNAL SOURCES ! SOURCE 1(4)
Four identical Source menus are available. The "SRC 1" text can be replaced by with a user-defined name appropriate for
the associated source.
“F” and “M” represent the module slot position. The number directly following these letters represents either the first bank of
four channels (1, 2, 3, 4) called “1” or the second bank of four channels (5, 6, 7, 8) called “5” in a particular CT/VT module.
Refer to the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for additional details on this concept.
It is possible to select the sum of up to five (5) CTs. The first channel displayed is the CT to which all others will be referred.
For example, the selection “F1+F5” indicates the sum of each phase from channels “F1” and “F5”, scaled to whichever CT
has the higher ratio. Selecting “None” hides the associated actual values.
The approach used to configure the AC Sources consists of several steps; first step is to specify the information about each
CT and VT input. For CT inputs, this is the nominal primary and secondary current. For VTs, this is the connection type,
ratio and nominal secondary voltage. Once the inputs have been specified, the configuration for each Source is entered,
including specifying which CTs will be summed together.

A description of the operation of the breaker control and status monitoring features is provided in Chapter 4. Only informa-
tion concerning programming of the associated settings is covered here. These features are provided for two breakers; a
user may use only those portions of the design relevant to a single breaker, which must be Breaker No. 1.
• BREAKER 1(2) FUNCTION: Set to "Enable" to allow the operation of any breaker control feature.
• BREAKER1(2) PUSH BUTTON CONTROL: Set to "Enable" to allow faceplate push button operations.
• BREAKER 1(2) NAME: Assign a user-defined name (up to 6 characters) to the breaker. This name will be used in
flash messages related to Breaker No. 1.
• BREAKER 1(2) MODE: Selects "3-pole" mode, where all breaker poles are operated simultaneously, or "1-pole" mode
where all breaker poles are operated either independently or simultaneously.
• BREAKER 1(2) OPEN: Selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate an output relay to open
Breaker No. 1.
• BREAKER 1(2) CLOSE: Selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate an output relay to close
Breaker No. 1.
• BREAKER 1(2) ΦA/3-POLE: Selects an operand, usually a contact input connected to a breaker auxiliary position
tracking mechanism. This input can be either a 52/a or 52/b contact, or a combination the 52/a and 52/b contacts, that
must be programmed to create a logic 0 when the breaker is open. If BREAKER 1 MODE is selected as "3-Pole", this set-
ting selects a single input as the operand used to track the breaker open or closed position. If the mode is selected as
"1-Pole", the input mentioned above is used to track phase A and settings BREAKER 1 ΦB and BREAKER 1 ΦC select
operands to track phases B and C, respectively.
• BREAKER 1(2) ΦB: If the mode is selected as 3-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected as 1-pole,
this input is used to track phase B as above for phase A.
• BREAKER 1(2) ΦC: If the mode is selected as 3-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected as 1-pole,
this input is used to track phase C as above for phase A.
• BREAKER 1(2) EXT ALARM: Selects an operand, usually an external contact input, connected to a breaker alarm
reporting contact.
• BREAKER 1(2) ALARM DELAY: Sets the delay interval during which a disagreement of status among the three pole
5 position tracking operands will not declare a pole disagreement, to allow for non-simultaneous operation of the poles.
• MANUAL CLOSE RECAL1 TIME: Sets the interval required to maintain setting changes in effect after an operator has
initiated a manual close command to operate a circuit breaker.
• BREAKER 1(2) OUT OF SV: Selects an operand indicating that Breaker No. 1 is out-of-service.
• UCA XCBR1(2) PwrSupSt0: Selects a FlexLogic™ operand to provide a value for the UCA XCBR1(2) PwrSupSt bit 0
data item.
• UCA XCBR1(2) PresSt: Selects a FlexLogic™ operand to provide a value for the UCA XCBR1(2) PresSt data item.
• UCA XCBR1(2) TrpCoil: Selects a FlexLogic™ operand to provide a value for the UCA XCBR1(2) TrpCoil data item.
• BKR XCBR SBO TIMEOUT: The Select-Before-Operate timer specifies an interval from the receipt of the UCA
Breaker Control Select signal until the automatic de-selection of the breaker, so that the breaker does not remain
selected indefinitely. This setting applies only to UCA SBO operation.
5.3.6 FLEXCURVES™
a) SETTINGS
PATH: SETTINGS !" SYSTEM SETUP !" FLEXCURVES ! FLEXCURVE A(D)
FlexCurves™ A through D have settings for entering times to Reset/Operate at the following pickup levels: 0.00 to 0.98 /
1.03 to 20.00. This data is converted into 2 continuous curves by linear interpolation between data points. To enter a cus-
tom FlexCurve™, enter the Reset/Operate time (using the VALUE keys) for each selected pickup point (using the
MESSAGE keys) for the desired protection curve (A, B, C, or D).
The relay using a given FlexCurve™ applies linear approximation for times between the user-entered
points. Special care must be applied when setting the two points that are close to the multiple of pickup of
NOTE
1, i.e. 0.98 pu and 1.03 pu. It is recommended to set the two times to a similar value; otherwise, the linear
approximation may result in undesired behavior for the operating quantity that is close to 1.00 pu.
Addr: Adds the time specified in this field (in ms) to each
curve operating time value.
d) EXAMPLE
A composite curve can be created from the GE_111 standard with MRT = 200 ms and HCT initially disabled and then
enabled at 8 times pickup with an operating time of 30 ms. At approximately 4 times pickup, the curve operating time is
equal to the MRT and from then onwards the operating time remains at 200 ms (see below).

To provide maximum flexibility to the user, the arrangement of internal digital logic combines fixed and user-programmed
parameters. Logic upon which individual features are designed is fixed, and all other logic, from digital input signals through
elements or combinations of elements to digital outputs, is variable. The user has complete control of all variable logic
through FlexLogic™. In general, the system receives analog and digital inputs which it uses to produce analog and digital
outputs. The major sub-systems of a generic UR relay involved in this process are shown below.
The logic that determines the interaction of inputs, elements, schemes and outputs is field programmable through the use
of logic equations that are sequentially processed. The use of virtual inputs and outputs in addition to hardware is available
internally and on the communication ports for other relays to use (distributed FlexLogic™).
FlexLogic™ allows users to customize the relay through a series of equations that consist of operators and operands. The
operands are the states of inputs, elements, schemes and outputs. The operators are logic gates, timers and latches (with
set and reset inputs). A system of sequential operations allows any combination of specified operands to be assigned as
inputs to specified operators to create an output. The final output of an equation is a numbered register called a virtual out-
put. Virtual outputs can be used as an input operand in any equation, including the equation that generates the output, as a
seal-in or other type of feedback.
A FlexLogic™ equation consists of parameters that are either operands or operators. Operands have a logic state of 1 or 0.
Operators provide a defined function, such as an AND gate or a Timer. Each equation defines the combinations of parame-
ters to be used to set a Virtual Output flag. Evaluation of an equation results in either a 1 (=ON, i.e. flag set) or 0 (=OFF, i.e.
flag not set). Each equation is evaluated at least 4 times every power system cycle.
Some types of operands are present in the relay in multiple instances; e.g. contact and remote inputs. These types of oper-
ands are grouped together (for presentation purposes only) on the faceplate display. The characteristics of the different
types of operands are listed in the table below.

Some operands can be re-named by the user. These are the names of the breakers in the breaker control feature, the ID
(identification) of contact inputs, the ID of virtual inputs, and the ID of virtual outputs. If the user changes the default name/
ID of any of these operands, the assigned name will appear in the relay list of operands. The default names are shown in
the FlexLogic™ Operands table above.
The characteristics of the logic gates are tabulated below, and the operators available in FlexLogic™ are listed in the Flex-
Logic™ Operators table.
When forming a FlexLogic™ equation, the sequence in the linear array of parameters must follow these general rules:
1. Operands must precede the operator which uses the operands as inputs.
2. Operators have only one output. The output of an operator must be used to create a virtual output if it is to be used as
an input to two or more operators.
3. Assigning the output of an operator to a Virtual Output terminates the equation.
4. A timer operator (e.g. "TIMER 1") or virtual output assignment (e.g. " = Virt Op 1") may only be used once. If this rule is
broken, a syntax error will be declared.
Each equation is evaluated in the order in which the parameters have been entered.
FlexLogic™ provides latches which by definition have a memory action, remaining in the set state after the
set input has been asserted. However, they are volatile; i.e. they reset on the re-application of control
CAUTION
power.
When making changes to settings, all FlexLogic™ equations are re-compiled whenever any new setting
value is entered, so all latches are automatically reset. If it is necessary to re-initialize FlexLogic™ during
testing, for example, it is suggested to power the unit down and then back up.
This section provides an example of implementing logic for a typical application. The sequence of the steps is quite impor-
tant as it should minimize the work necessary to develop the relay settings. Note that the example presented in the figure
below is intended to demonstrate the procedure, not to solve a specific application situation.
In the example below, it is assumed that logic has already been programmed to produce Virtual Outputs 1 and 2, and is
only a part of the full set of equations used. When using FlexLogic™, it is important to make a note of each Virtual Output
used – a Virtual Output designation (1 to 64) can only be properly assigned once.

8. The logic should always be tested after it is loaded into the relay, in the same fashion as has been used in the past.
Testing can be simplified by placing an "END" operator within the overall set of FlexLogic™ equations. The equations
will then only be evaluated up to the first "END" operator.
The "On" and "Off" operands can be placed in an equation to establish a known set of conditions for test purposes, and
the "INSERT" and "DELETE" commands can be used to modify equations.
There are 512 FlexLogic™ entries available, numbered from 1 to 512, with default ‘END’ entry settings. If a "Disabled" Ele-
ment is selected as a FlexLogic™ entry, the associated state flag will never be set to ‘1’. The ‘+/–‘ key may be used when
editing FlexLogic™ equations from the keypad to quickly scan through the major parameter types.

A FlexElement™ is a universal comparator that can be used to monitor any analog actual value calculated by the relay or a
net difference of any two analog actual values of the same type. The effective operating signal could be treated as a signed
number or its absolute value could be used as per user's choice.
The element can be programmed to respond either to a signal level or to a rate-of-change (delta) over a pre-defined period
of time. The output operand is asserted when the operating signal is higher than a threshold or lower than a threshold as
per user's choice.

The FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP setting specifies the operating threshold for the effective operating signal of the element. If set
to “Over”, the element picks up when the operating signal exceeds the FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP value. If set to “Under”, the
element picks up when the operating signal falls below the FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP value.
The FLEXELEMENT 1 HYSTERESIS setting controls the element dropout. It should be noticed that both the operating signal
and the pickup threshold can be negative facilitating applications such as reverse power alarm protection. The FlexEle-
ment™ can be programmed to work with all analog actual values measured by the relay. The FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP set-
ting is entered in pu values using the following definitions of the base units:
The non-volatile latches provide a permanent logical flag that is stored safely and will not reset upon reboot after the relay
is powered down. Typical applications include sustaining operator commands or permanently block relay functions, such as
Autorecloser, until a deliberate HMI action resets the latch. The settings, logic, and element operation are described below:
• LATCH 1 TYPE: This setting characterizes Latch 1 to be Set- or Reset-dominant.
• LATCH 1 SET: If asserted, the specified FlexLogic™ operands 'sets' Latch 1.
5 • LATCH 1 RESET: If asserted, the specified FlexLogic™ operand 'resets' Latch 1.

Each protection element can be assigned up to six different sets of settings according to Setting Group designations 1 to 6.
The performance of these elements is defined by the active Setting Group at a given time. Multiple setting groups allow the
user to conveniently change protection settings for different operating situations (e.g. altered power system configuration,
season of the year). The active setting group can be preset or selected via the SETTING GROUPS menu (see the Control Ele-
ments section later in this chapter). See also the Introduction to Elements section at the beginning of this chapter.
Each of the six Setting Group menus is identical. SETTING GROUP 1 (the default active group) automatically becomes active
if no other group is active (see the Control Elements section for additional details).
PATH: SETTINGS !" GROUPED ELEMENTS ! SETTING GROUP 1(6) !" BREAKER FAILURE ! BREAKER FAILURE 1
When the scheme is initiated, it immediately sends a trip signal to the breaker initially signaled to trip (this feature is usually
described as Re-Trip). This reduces the possibility of widespread tripping that results from a declaration of a failed breaker.
DETERMINATION OF A BREAKER FAILURE CONDITION:
The schemes determine a breaker failure condition via three ‘paths’. Each of these paths is equipped with a time delay,
after which a failed breaker is declared and trip signals are sent to all breakers required to clear the zone. The delayed
paths are associated with Breaker Failure Timers 1, 2, and 3, which are intended to have delays increasing with increasing
timer numbers. These delayed paths are individually enabled to allow for maximum flexibility.
Timer 1 logic (Early Path) is supervised by a fast-operating breaker auxiliary contact. If the breaker is still closed (as indi-
cated by the auxiliary contact) and fault current is detected after the delay interval, an output is issued. Operation of the
breaker auxiliary switch indicates that the breaker has mechanically operated. The continued presence of current indicates
that the breaker has failed to interrupt the circuit.
Timer 2 logic (Main Path) is not supervised by a breaker auxiliary contact. If fault current is detected after the delay interval,
an output is issued. This path is intended to detect a breaker that opens mechanically but fails to interrupt fault current; the
logic therefore does not use a breaker auxiliary contact.
The Timer 1 and 2 paths provide two levels of current supervision, Hi-set and Lo-set, that allow the supervision level to
change from a current which flows before a breaker inserts an opening resistor into the faulted circuit to a lower level after
resistor insertion. The Hi-set detector is enabled after timeout of Timer 1 or 2, along with a timer that will enable the Lo-set
detector after its delay interval. The delay interval between Hi-set and Lo-set is the expected breaker opening time. Both
current detectors provide a fast operating time for currents at small multiples of the pickup value. The overcurrent detectors
are required to operate after the breaker failure delay interval to eliminate the need for very fast resetting overcurrent detec-
tors.
Timer 3 logic (Slow Path) is supervised by a breaker auxiliary contact and a control switch contact used to indicate that the
breaker is in/out of service, disabling this path when the breaker is out of service for maintenance. There is no current level
5 check in this logic as it is intended to detect low magnitude faults and it is therefore the slowest to operate.
OUTPUT:
The outputs from the schemes are:
• FlexLogic™ operands that report on the operation of portions of the scheme
• FlexLogic™ operand used to re-trip the protected breaker
• FlexLogic™ operands that initiate tripping required to clear the faulted zone. The trip output can be sealed-in for an
adjustable period.
• Target message indicating a failed breaker has been declared
• Illumination of the faceplate Trip LED (and the Phase A, B or C LED, if applicable)

SETTINGS:
• BF1 MODE: This setting is used to select the breaker failure operating mode: single or three pole.
• BF1 USE AMP SUPV: If set to "Yes", the element will only be initiated if current flowing through the breaker is above
the supervision pickup level.
• BF1 USE SEAL-IN: If set to "Yes", the element will only be sealed-in if current flowing through the breaker is above the
supervision pickup level.
• BF1 3-POLE INITIATE: This setting selects the FlexLogic™ operand that will initiate 3-pole tripping of the breaker.
• BF1 PH AMP SUPV PICKUP: This setting is used to set the phase current initiation and seal-in supervision level.
Generally this setting should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker. It can be set as low as
necessary (lower than breaker resistor current or lower than load current) - Hiset and Loset current supervision will
guarantee correct operation.
• BF1 N AMP SUPV PICKUP: This setting is used to set the neutral current initiate and seal-in supervision level. Gener-
ally this setting should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker. Neutral current supervision is
used only in the three phase scheme to provide increased sensitivity. This setting is valid only for three-pole tripping
schemes.
• BF1 USE TIMER 1: If set to "Yes", the Early Path is operational.
• BF1 TIMER 1 PICKUP DELAY: Timer 1 is set to the shortest time required for breaker auxiliary contact Status-1 to
open, from the time the initial trip signal is applied to the breaker trip circuit, plus a safety margin.
• BF1 USE TIMER 2: If set to "Yes", the Main Path is operational.
• BF1 TIMER 2 PICKUP DELAY: Timer 2 is set to the expected opening time of the breaker, plus a safety margin. This
safety margin was historically intended to allow for measuring and timing errors in the breaker failure scheme equip-
ment. In microprocessor relays this time is not significant. In C60 relays, which use a Fourier transform, the calculated
current magnitude will ramp-down to zero one power frequency cycle after the current is interrupted, and this lag
5
should be included in the overall margin duration, as it occurs after current interruption. The Breaker Failure Main Path
Sequence diagram below shows a margin of two cycles; this interval is considered the minimum appropriate for most
applications.
Note that in bulk oil circuit breakers, the interrupting time for currents less than 25% of the interrupting rating can be
significantly longer than the normal interrupting time.
• BF1 USE TIMER 3: If set to "Yes", the Slow Path is operational.
• BF1 TIMER 3 PICKUP DELAY: Timer 3 is set to the same interval as Timer 2, plus an increased safety margin.
Because this path is intended to operate only for low level faults, the delay can be in the order of 300 to 500 ms.
• BF1 BKR POS1 φA/3P: This setting selects the FlexLogic™ operand that represents the protected breaker early-type
auxiliary switch contact (52/a). When using 1-Pole breaker failure scheme, this operand represents the protected
breaker early-type auxiliary switch contact on pole A. This is normally a non-multiplied Form-A contact. The contact
may even be adjusted to have the shortest possible operating time.
• BF1 BKR POS2 φA/3P: This setting selects the FlexLogic™ operand that represents the breaker normal-type auxiliary
switch contact (52/a). When using 1-Pole breaker failure scheme, this operand represents the protected breaker auxil-
iary switch contact on pole A. This may be a multiplied contact.
• BF1 BREAKER TEST ON: This setting is used to select the FlexLogic™ operand that represents the breaker In-Ser-
vice/Out-of-Service switch set to the Out-of-Service position.
• BF1 PH AMP HISET PICKUP: This setting sets the phase current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, before a breaker opening resistor is inserted.
• BF1 N AMP HISET PICKUP: This setting sets the neutral current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, before a breaker opening resistor is inserted.
Neutral current supervision is used only in the three pole scheme to provide increased sensitivity. This setting is valid
only for 3-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 PH AMP LOSET PICKUP: This setting sets the phase current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, after a breaker opening resistor is inserted
(approximately 90% of the resistor current).
• BF1 N AMP LOSET PICKUP: This setting sets the neutral current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, after a breaker opening resistor is inserted
(approximately 90% of the resistor current). This setting is valid only for 3-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 LOSET TIME DELAY: Sets the pickup delay for current detection after opening resistor insertion.
• BF1 TRIP DROPOUT DELAY: This setting is used to set the period of time for which the trip output is sealed-in. This
timer must be coordinated with the automatic reclosing scheme of the failed breaker, to which the breaker failure ele-
ment sends a cancel reclosure signal. Reclosure of a remote breaker can also be prevented by holding a Transfer Trip
signal on longer than the "reclaim" time.
• BF1 PH A INITIATE / BF1 PH B INITIATE / BF 1 PH C INITIATE: These settings select the FlexLogic™ operand to ini-
tiate phase A, B, or C single-pole tripping of the breaker and the phase A, B, or C portion of the scheme, accordingly.
This setting is only valid for 1-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 BKR POS1 φB / BF1 BKR POS 1 φC: These settings select the FlexLogic™ operand to represents the protected
breaker early-type auxiliary switch contact on poles B or C, accordingly. This contact is normally a non-multiplied Form-
A contact. The contact may even be adjusted to have the shortest possible operating time. This setting is valid only for
1-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 BKR POS2 φB: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand that represents the protected breaker normal-type auxiliary
switch contact on pole B (52/a). This may be a multiplied contact. This setting is valid only for 1-pole breaker failure
schemes.
• BF1 BKR POS2 φC: This setting selects the FlexLogic™ operand that represents the protected breaker normal-type
auxiliary switch contact on pole C (52/a). This may be a multiplied contact. For single-pole operation, the scheme has
the same overall general concept except that it provides re-tripping of each single pole of the protected breaker. The
approach shown in the following single pole tripping diagram uses the initiating information to determine which pole is
supposed to trip. The logic is segregated on a per-pole basis. The overcurrent detectors have ganged settings. This
5 setting is valid only for 1-pole breaker failure schemes.
Upon operation of the breaker failure element for a single pole trip command, a 3-pole trip command should be given
via output operand "BF1 TRIP OP".

A time dial multiplier setting allows selection of a multiple of the base curve shape (where the time dial multiplier = 1) with
the curve shape (CURVE) setting. Unlike the electromechanical time dial equivalent, operate times are directly proportional
to the time multiplier (TD MULTIPLIER) setting value. For example, all times for a multiplier of 10 are 10 times the multiplier 1
or base curve values. Setting the multiplier to zero results in an instantaneous response to all current levels above pickup.
Time overcurrent time calculations are made with an internal “energy capacity” memory variable. When this variable indi-
cates that the energy capacity has reached 100%, a time overcurrent element will operate. If less than 100% energy capac-
ity is accumulated in this variable and the current falls below the dropout threshold of 97 to 98% of the pickup value, the
variable must be reduced. Two methods of this resetting operation are available: “Instantaneous” and “Timed”. The Instan-
taneous selection is intended for applications with other relays, such as most static relays, which set the energy capacity
directly to zero when the current falls below the reset threshold. The Timed selection can be used where the relay must
coordinate with electromechanical relays. With this setting, the energy capacity variable is decremented according to the
equation provided.
Graphs of standard time-current curves on 11” × 17” log-log graph paper are available upon request from
the GE Multilin literature department. The original files are also available in PDF format on the UR Software

The phase time overcurrent element can provide a desired time-delay operating characteristic versus the applied current or
be used as a simple Definite Time element. The phase current input quantities may be programmed as fundamental phasor
magnitude or total waveform RMS magnitude as required by the application.
Two methods of resetting operation are available: “Timed” and “Instantaneous” (refer to the Inverse TOC Curves Character-
istic sub-section earlier for details on curve setup, trip times and reset operation). When the element is blocked, the time
accumulator will reset according to the reset characteristic. For example, if the element reset characteristic is set to “Instan-
taneous” and the element is blocked, the time accumulator will be cleared immediately.
The PHASE TOC1 PICKUP setting can be dynamically reduced by a voltage restraint feature (when enabled). This is accom-
plished via the multipliers (Mvr) corresponding to the phase-phase voltages of the voltage restraint characteristic curve (see
the figure below); the pickup level is calculated as ‘Mvr’ times the PHASE TOC1 PICKUP setting. If the voltage restraint feature
is disabled, the pickup level always remains at the setting value.

These protection elements can be used for a variety of applications such as:
Undervoltage Protection: For voltage sensitive loads, such as induction motors, a drop in voltage increases the drawn
current which may cause dangerous overheating in the motor. The undervoltage protection feature can be used to either
cause a trip or generate an alarm when the voltage drops below a specified voltage setting for a specified time delay.
Permissive Functions: The undervoltage feature may be used to block the functioning of external devices by operating an
output relay when the voltage falls below the specified voltage setting. The undervoltage feature may also be used to block
the functioning of other elements through the block feature of those elements.
Source Transfer Schemes: In the event of an undervoltage, a transfer signal may be generated to transfer a load from its
5
normal source to a standby or emergency power source.
The undervoltage elements can be programmed to have a Definite Time delay characteristic. The Definite Time curve oper-
ates when the voltage drops below the pickup level for a specified period of time. The time delay is adjustable from 0 to
600.00 seconds in steps of 10 ms. The undervoltage elements can also be programmed to have an inverse time delay
characteristic. The undervoltage delay setting defines the family of curves shown below.

This element may be used to give a desired time-delay operating characteristic versus the applied fundamental voltage
(phase-to-ground or phase-to-phase for Wye VT connection, or phase-to-phase for Delta VT connection) or as a Definite
Time element. The element resets instantaneously if the applied voltage exceeds the dropout voltage. The delay setting
selects the minimum operating time of the phase undervoltage. The minimum voltage setting selects the operating voltage
below which the element is blocked (a setting of "0" will allow a dead source to be considered a fault condition).

The Directional Power element responds to three-phase active power and is designed for reverse power and low forward
power applications for synchronous machines or interconnections involving co-generation. The relay measures the three-
phase power from either full set of wye-connected VTs or full-set of delta-connected VTs. In the latter case, the two-wattme-
ter method is used. Refer to the UR Metering Conventions section in Chapter 6 for conventions regarding the active and
reactive powers used by the Directional Power element.
The element has an adjustable characteristic angle and minimum operating power as shown in the Directional Power Char-
acteristic diagram. The element responds to the following condition:
P cos θ + Q sin θ > SMIN (EQ 5.10)
where: P and Q are active and reactive powers as measured per the UR convention,
θ is a sum of the element characteristic (DIR POWER 1 RCA) and calibration (DIR POWER 1 CALIBRATION) angles, and
SMIN is the minimum operating power
The operating quantity is available for display as under ACTUAL VALUES ! METERING !" SENSITIVE POWER 1(2). The ele-
ment has two independent (as to the pickup and delay settings) stages for alarm and trip, respectively.

• DIR POWER 1(2) RCA: Specifies the relay characteristic angle (RCA) for the directional power function. Application of
this setting is threefold:
1. It allows the element to respond to active or reactive power in any direction (active overpower, active underpower,
etc.)
2. Together with a precise calibration angle, it allows compensation for any CT and VT angular errors to permit more
sensitive settings.
3. It allows for required direction in situations when the voltage signal is taken from behind a delta-wye connected
power transformer and the phase angle compensation is required.
For example, the active overpower characteristic is achieved by setting DIR POWER 1(2) RCA to “0°”, reactive overpower
by setting DIR POWER 1(2) RCA to “90°”, active underpower by setting DIR POWER 1(2) RCA to “180°”, and reactive under-
power by setting DIR POWER 1(2) RCA to “270°”.
• DIR POWER 1(2) CALIBRATION: This setting allows the RCA to change in small steps of 0.05°. This may be useful
when a small difference in VT and CT angular errors is to be compensated to permit more sensitive settings. This set-
ting virtually enables calibration of the Directional Power function in terms of the angular error of applied VTs and CTs.
The element responds to the sum of the DIR POWER X RCA and DIR POWER X CALIBRATION settings.
• DIR POWER 1(2) STG1 SMIN: This setting specifies the minimum power as defined along the RCA angle for the
stage 1 of the element. The positive values imply a shift towards the operate region along the RCA line. The negative
values imply a shift towards the restrain region along the RCA line. Refer to the Directional Power Sample Applications
figure for an illustration. Together with the RCA, this setting enables a wide range of operating characteristics. This set-
ting applies to three-phase power and is entered in pu. The base quantity is 3 × VT pu base × CT pu base.
For example, a setting of 2% for a 200 MW machine, is 0.02 × 200 MW = 4 MW. If 7.967 kV is a primary VT voltage
and 10 kA is a primary CT current, the source pu quantity is 239 MVA, and thus, SMIN should be set at 4 MW /
5 239 MVA = 0.0167 pu ≈ 0.017 pu. If the reverse power application is considered, RCA = 180° and SMIN = 0.017 pu.
The element drops out if the magnitude of the positive-sequence current becomes virtually zero, that is, it drops below
the cutoff level.
• DIR POWER 1(2) STG1 DELAY: This setting specifies a time delay for the Stage 1 of the element. For reverse power
or low forward power applications for a synchronous machine, Stage 1 is typically applied for alarming and Stage 2 for
tripping.

Control elements are generally used for control rather than protection. See the Introduction to Elements section at the
beginning of this chapter for further information.
The Setting Groups menu controls the activation/deactivation of up to six possible groups of settings in the GROUPED ELE-
settings menu. The faceplate ’Settings in Use’ LEDs indicate which active group (with a non-flashing energized
MENTS
LED) is in service. 5
The SETTING GROUPS BLK setting prevents the active setting group from changing when the FlexLogic™ parameter is set to
"On". This can be useful in applications where it is undesirable to change the settings under certain conditions, such as the
breaker being open.
Each GROUP n ACTIVATE ON setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand which, when set, will make the particular setting group
active for use by any grouped element. A priority scheme ensures that only one group is active at a given time – the high-
est-numbered group which is activated by its GROUP n ACTIVATE ON parameter takes priority over the lower-numbered
groups. There is no "activate on" setting for Group 1 (the default active group), because Group 1 automatically becomes
active if no other group is active.
The relay can be set up via a FlexLogic™ equation to receive requests to activate or de-activate a particular non-default
settings group. The following FlexLogic™ equation (see the figure below) illustrates requests via remote communications
(e.g. VIRTUAL INPUT 1) or from a local contact input (e.g. H7a) to initiate the use of a particular settings group, and
requests from several overcurrent pickup measuring elements to inhibit the use of the particular settings group. The
assigned VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 operand is used to control the ON state of a particular settings group.

The Selector Switch element is intended to replace a mechanical selector switch. Typical applications include setting group
control or control of multiple logic sub-circuits in user-programmable logic.
The element provides for two control inputs. The step-up control allows stepping through selector position one step at a
time with each pulse of the control input, such as a user-programmable pushbutton. The 3-bit control input allows setting
the selector to the position defined by a 3-bit word.
The element allows pre-selecting a new position without applying it. The pre-selected position gets applied either after time-
out or upon acknowledgement via separate inputs (user setting). The selector position is stored in non-volatile memory.
Upon power-up, either the previous position is restored or the relay synchronizes to the current 3-bit word (user setting).
Basic alarm functionality alerts the user under abnormal conditions; e.g. the 3-bit control input being out of range.
• SELECTOR 1 FULL RANGE: This setting defines the upper position of the selector. When stepping up through avail-
able positions of the selector, the upper position wraps up to the lower position (Position 1). When using a direct 3-bit
control word for programming the selector to a desired position, the change would take place only if the control word is
within the range of 1 to the SELECTOR FULL RANGE. If the control word is outside the range, an alarm is established by
setting the SELECTOR ALARM FlexLogic™ operand for 3 seconds.
• SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT: This setting defines the time-out period for the selector. This value is used by the relay in
the following two ways. When the SELECTOR STEP-UP MODE is “Time-out”, the setting specifies the required period of
inactivity of the control input after which the pre-selected position is automatically applied. When the SELECTOR STEP-
UP MODE is “Acknowledge”, the setting specifies the period of time for the acknowledging input to appear. The timer is
re-started by any activity of the control input. The acknowledging input must come before the SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT
timer expires; otherwise, the change will not take place and an alarm will be set.
• SELECTOR 1 STEP-UP: This setting specifies a control input for the selector switch. The switch is shifted to a new
position at each rising edge of this signal. The position changes incrementally, wrapping up from the last (SELECTOR 1
FULL RANGE) to the first (Position 1). Consecutive pulses of this control operand must not occur faster than every
50 ms. After each rising edge of the assigned operand, the time-out timer is restarted and the SELECTOR 1 CHANGE
FROM Y TO Z target message is displayed, where Y is the present position and Z the pre-selected position. The mes-
sage is displayed for the time specified by the FLASH MESSAGE TIME setting. The pre-selected position is applied after
the selector times out (“Time-out” mode), or when the acknowledging signal appears before the element times out
(“Acknowledge” mode). When the new position is applied, the relay displays the SELECTOR 1 CHANGE FROM Y TO Z
message. Typically, a user-programmable pushbutton is configured as the stepping up control input.
• SELECTOR 1 STEP-UP MODE: This setting defines the selector mode of operation. When set to “Time-out”, the
selector will change its position after a pre-defined period of inactivity at the control input. The change is automatic and
does not require any explicit confirmation of the intent to change the selector's position. When set to “Acknowledge”,
the selector will change its position only after the intent is confirmed through a separate acknowledging signal. If the
acknowledging signal does not appear within a pre-defined period of time, the selector does not accept the change
and an alarm is established by setting the SELECTOR STP ALARM output FlexLogic™ operand for 3 seconds.
• SELECTOR 1 ACK: This setting specifies an acknowledging input for the stepping up control input. The pre-selected
position is applied on the rising edge of the assigned operand. This setting is active only under “Acknowledge” mode of
operation. The acknowledging signal must appear within the time defined by the SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT setting after the
last activity of the control input. A user-programmable pushbutton is typically configured as the acknowledging input.
• SELECTOR 1 3BIT A0, A1, and A2: These settings specify a 3-bit control input of the selector. The 3-bit control word
pre-selects the position using the following encoding convention: 5
A2 A1 A0 POSITION
0 0 0 rest
0 0 1 1
0 1 0 2
0 1 1 3
1 0 0 4
1 0 1 5
1 1 0 6
1 1 1 7
The “rest” position (0, 0, 0) does not generate an action and is intended for situations when the device generating the
3-bit control word is having a problem. When SELECTOR 1 3BIT MODE is “Time-out”, the pre-selected position is applied
in SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT seconds after the last activity of the 3-bit input. When SELECTOR 1 3BIT MODE is “Acknowl-
edge”, the pre-selected position is applied on the rising edge of the SELECTOR 1 3BIT ACK acknowledging input.
The stepping up control input (SELECTOR 1 STEP-UP) and the 3-bit control inputs (SELECTOR 1 3BIT A0 through A2) lock-
out mutually: once the stepping up sequence is initiated, the 3-bit control input is inactive; once the 3-bit control
sequence is initiated, the stepping up input is inactive.
• SELECTOR 1 3BIT MODE: This setting defines the selector mode of operation. When set to “Time-out”, the selector
changes its position after a pre-defined period of inactivity at the control input. The change is automatic and does not
require explicit confirmation to change the selector position. When set to “Acknowledge”, the selector changes its posi-
tion only after confirmation via a separate acknowledging signal. If the acknowledging signal does not appear within a
pre-defined period of time, the selector rejects the change and an alarm established by invoking the SELECTOR BIT
ALARM FlexLogic™ operand for 3 seconds.
• SELECTOR 1 3BIT ACK: This setting specifies an acknowledging input for the 3-bit control input. The pre-selected
position is applied on the rising edge of the assigned FlexLogic™ operand. This setting is active only under the
“Acknowledge” mode of operation. The acknowledging signal must appear within the time defined by the SELECTOR
TIME-OUT setting after the last activity of the 3-bit control inputs. Note that the stepping up control input and 3-bit control
input have independent acknowledging signals (SELECTOR 1 ACK and SELECTOR 1 3BIT ACK, accordingly).
• SELECTOR 1 POWER-UP MODE: This setting specifies behavior of the element on power up of the relay. When set
to “Restore”, the last selector position, stored in non-volatile memory, is restored after powering up the relay. When set
to “Synchronize”, the selector sets to the current 3-bit control input after powering up the relay. This operation does not
wait for time-out or the acknowledging input. When powering up, the rest position (0, 0, 0) and the out-of-range 3-bit
control words are also ignored, the output is set to Position 0 (no output operand selected), and an alarm is established
(SELECTOR 1 PWR ALARM). If the position restored from memory is out-of-range, Position 0 (no output operand
selected) is applied and an alarm is set (SELECTOR 1 PWR ALARM).
• SELECTOR 1 EVENTS: If enabled, the following events are logged:

5.6.4 SYNCHROCHECK
As an example; for the default values (∆Φ = 30°, ∆F = 0.1 Hz), the time while the angle between the two voltages will be
less than the set value is:

T = ------------------------------- - = 1.66 sec.
- = ------------------------------------------ (EQ 5.12)
360° 360°
------------------ × ∆F ------------------- × 0.1 Hz
2 × ∆Φ 2 × 30°
If one or both sources are de-energized, the synchrocheck programming can allow for closing of the circuit breaker using
undervoltage control to by-pass the synchrocheck measurements (Dead Source function).
• SYNCHK1 V1 SOURCE: This setting selects the source for voltage V1 (see NOTES below).
• SYNCHK1 V2 SOURCE: This setting selects the source for voltage V2, which must not be the same as used for the
V1 (see NOTES below).
• SYNCHK1 MAX VOLT DIFF: This setting selects the maximum primary voltage difference in ‘kV’ between the two
sources. A primary voltage magnitude difference between the two input voltages below this value is within the permis-
sible limit for synchronism.
• SYNCHK1 MAX ANGLE DIFF: This setting selects the maximum angular difference in degrees between the two
sources. An angular difference between the two input voltage phasors below this value is within the permissible limit
for synchronism.
• SYNCHK1 MAX FREQ DIFF: This setting selects the maximum frequency difference in ‘Hz’ between the two sources.
A frequency difference between the two input voltage systems below this value is within the permissible limit for syn-
chronism.
• SYNCHK1 MAX FREQ HYSTERESIS: This setting specifies the required hysteresis for the maximum frequency differ-
ence condition. The condition becomes satisfied when the frequency difference becomes lower than SYNCHK1 MAX
FREQ DIFF. Once the Synchrocheck element has operated, the frequency difference must increase above the SYNCHK1
5 MAX FREQ DIFF + SYNCHK1 MAX FREQ HYSTERESIS sum to drop out (assuming the other two conditions, voltage and
angle, remain satisfied).
• SYNCHK1 DEAD SOURCE SELECT: This setting selects the combination of dead and live sources that will by-pass
synchronism check function and permit the breaker to be closed when one or both of the two voltages (V1 or/and V2)
are below the maximum voltage threshold. A dead or live source is declared by monitoring the voltage level. Six
options are available:
None: Dead Source function is disabled
LV1 and DV2: Live V1 and Dead V2
DV1 and LV2: Dead V1 and Live V2
DV1 or DV2: Dead V1 or Dead V2
DV1 Xor DV2: Dead V1 exclusive-or Dead V2 (one source is Dead and the other is Live)
DV1 and DV2: Dead V1 and Dead V2
• SYNCHK1 DEAD V1 MAX VOLT: This setting establishes a maximum voltage magnitude for V1 in 1 ‘pu’. Below this
magnitude, the V1 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Dead” or de-energized.
• SYNCHK1 DEAD V2 MAX VOLT: This setting establishes a maximum voltage magnitude for V2 in ‘pu’. Below this
magnitude, the V2 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Dead” or de-energized.
• SYNCHK1 LIVE V1 MIN VOLT: This setting establishes a minimum voltage magnitude for V1 in ‘pu’. Above this mag-
nitude, the V1 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Live” or energized.
• SYNCHK1 LIVE V2 MIN VOLT: This setting establishes a minimum voltage magnitude for V2 in ‘pu’. Above this mag-
nitude, the V2 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Live” or energized.
The voltages V1 and V2 will be matched automatically so that the corresponding voltages from the two Sources will be
used to measure conditions. A phase to phase voltage will be used if available in both sources; if one or both of the
Sources have only an auxiliary voltage, this voltage will be used. For example, if an auxiliary voltage is programmed to
VAG, the synchrocheck element will automatically select VAG from the other Source. If the comparison is required on a
specific voltage, the user can externally connect that specific voltage to auxiliary voltage terminals and then use this
"Auxiliary Voltage" to check the synchronism conditions.
If using a single CT/VT module with both phase voltages and an auxiliary voltage, ensure that only the auxiliary voltage 5
is programmed in one of the Sources to be used for synchrocheck.
Exception: Synchronism cannot be checked between Delta connected phase VTs and a Wye con-
nected auxiliary voltage.
NOTE
2. The relay measures frequency and Volts/Hz from an input on a given Source with priorities as established by the con-
figuration of input channels to the Source. The relay will use the phase channel of a three-phase set of voltages if pro-
grammed as part of that Source. The relay will use the auxiliary voltage channel only if that channel is programmed as
part of the Source and a three-phase set is not.

5.6.5 AUTORECLOSE
The autoreclose scheme is intended for use on transmission lines with circuit breakers operated in both the single pole and
three pole modes, in one or two breaker arrangements. The autoreclose scheme provides four programs with different
operating cycles, depending on the fault type. Each of the four programs can be set to trigger up to two reclosing attempts.
The second attempt always performs three pole reclosing and has an independent dead time delay.
When used in two breaker applications, the reclosing sequence is selectable. The reclose signal can be sent to one
selected breaker only, to both breakers simultaneously or to both breakers in sequence (one breaker first and then, after a
delay to check that the reclose was successful, to the second breaker). When reclosing in sequence, the first breaker
should trip and reclose single pole or three pole, according to the fault type and reclose mode; the second breaker should
always trip and reclose 3-Pole. When reclosing simultaneously, for the first shot both breakers should trip and reclose either
single pole or three pole, according to the fault type and the reclose mode.
The signal used to initiate the autoreclose scheme is the trip output from protection. This signal can be single pole tripping
for single phase faults and three phase tripping for multiphase faults.
The autoreclose scheme has five operating states, defined below.
Table 5–17: AUTORECLOSE OPERATION
STATE CHARACTERISTICS
Enabled Scheme is permitted to operate
Disabled Scheme is not permitted to operate
Reset Scheme is permitted to operate and shot count is reset to 0
Reclose In Progress Scheme has been initiated but the reclose cycle is not finished (successful or not)
Lockout Scheme is not permitted to operate until reset received
AR PROGRAMS:
The autorecloser provides four programs that can cause one or two reclose attempts (shots). The second reclose will
always be three pole. If the maximum number of shots selected is "1" (only one reclose attempt) and the fault is persistent,
after the first reclose the scheme will go to Lockout upon another Initiate signal.
For the 3-pole reclose programs (modes 3 and 4), an "AR FORCE 3-P" FlexLogic™ operand is set. This operand can be
used in connection with the tripping logic to cause a three-pole trip for single-phase faults.
Table 5–18: AUTORECLOSE PROGRAMS

4 3 POLE-B 3 POLE 3 POLE 3 POLE or Lockout 3 POLE or Lockout
• Mode 1, 1 & 3 Pole: When in this mode the autorecloser starts the AR 1-P DEAD TIME timer for the first shot if the autore-
close is single-phase initiated, the AR 3-P DEAD TIME 1 timer if the autoreclose is three-phase initiated, and the AR 3-P
DEAD TIME 2 timer if the autoreclose is three-phase time delay initiated. If two shots are enabled, the second shot is
always three-phase and the AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2 timer is started.
• Mode 2, 1 Pole: When in this mode the autorecloser starts the AR 1-P DEAD TIME for the first shot if the fault is single
phase. If the fault is three-phase the scheme goes to lockout without reclosing. If two shots are enabled, the second
shot is always three-phase and starts AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2.
• Mode 3, 3 Pole-A: When in this mode the autorecloser is initiated only for single phase faults, although the trip is three
pole. The autorecloser uses the “AR 3-P DEAD TIME 1" for the first shot if the fault is single phase. If the fault is multi 5
phase the scheme will go to Lockout without reclosing. If two shots are enabled, the second shot is always three-phase
and starts “AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2".
• Mode 4, 3 Pole-B: When in this mode the autorecloser is initiated for any type of fault and starts the AR 3-P DEAD TIME 1
for the first shot. If the initiating signal is AR 3P TD INIT the scheme starts AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2 for the first shot. If two
shots are enabled, the second shot is always three-phase and starts AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2.
BASIC RECLOSING OPERATION:
Reclosing operation is determined primarily by the AR MODE and AR BKR SEQUENCE settings. The reclosing sequences are
started by the initiate inputs. A reclose initiate signal will send the scheme into the Reclose In Progress (RIP) state, assert-
ing the "AR RIP" operand. The scheme is latched into the RIP state and resets only when an "AR CLS BKR 1" (autoreclose
breaker 1) or "AR CLS BKR 2" (autoreclose breaker 2) operand is generated or the scheme goes to the Lockout state.
The dead time for the initial reclose operation will be determined by either the AR 1-P DEAD TIME, AR 3-P DEAD TIME 1, or AR
3-P DEAD TIME 2 setting, depending on the fault type and the mode selected. After the dead time interval the scheme will
assert the "AR CLOSE BKR 1" or "AR CLOSE BKR 2" operands, as determined by the sequence selected. These oper-
ands are latched until the breaker closes or the scheme goes to Reset or Lockout.
There are three initiate programs: single pole initiate, three pole initiate and three pole, time delay initiate. Any of these
reclose initiate signals will start the reclose cycle and set the "Reclose in progress" (AR RIP) operand. The reclose in
progress operand is sealed-in until the Lockout or Reset signal appears.
The three-pole initiate and three-pole time delay initiate signals are latched until the "Close Bkr1 or Bkr2" or Lockout or
Reset signal appears.
AR PAUSE:
The pause input offers the possibility of freezing the autoreclose cycle until the pause signal disappears. This may be done
when a trip occurs and simultaneously or previously, some conditions are detected such as out-of step or loss of guard fre-
quency, or a remote transfer trip signal is received. The pause signal blocks all three dead timers. When the “pause” signal
disappears the autoreclose cycle is resumed by initiating the AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2.
This feature can be also used when a transformer is tapped from the protected line and a reclose is not desirable until the
transformer is removed from the line. In this case, the reclose scheme is “paused” until the transformer is disconnected.
The AR PAUSE input will force a three-pole trip through the 3-P DEADTIME 2 path.
EVOLVING FAULTS:
1.25 cycles after the single pole dead time has been initiated, the “AR FORCE 3P TRIP” operand is set and it will be reset
only when the scheme is reset or goes to Lockout. This will ensure that when a fault on one phase evolves to include
another phase during the single pole dead time of the auto-recloser the scheme will force a 3 pole trip and reclose.
RECLOSING SCHEME OPERATION FOR ONE BREAKER:
• Permanent Fault: Consider Mode 1, which calls for 1-Pole or 3-Pole Time Delay 1 for the first reclosure and 3-Pole
Time Delay 2 for the second reclosure, and assume a permanent fault on the line. Also assume the scheme is in the
Reset state. For the first single-phase fault the AR 1-P DEAD TIME timer will be started, while for the first multi-phase fault
the AR 3-P DEAD TIME 1 timer will be started. If the AR 3P TD INIT signal is high, the AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2 will be started for
the first shot.
If AR MAX NO OF SHOTS is set to "1", upon the first reclose the shot counter is set to 1. Upon reclosing, the fault is again
detected by protection and reclose is initiated. The breaker is tripped three-pole through the "AR SHOT COUNT >0"
that will set the "AR FORCE 3P" operand. Because the shot counter has reached the maximum number of shots per-
mitted the scheme is sent to the Lockout state.
If AR MAX NO OF SHOTS is set to "2", upon the first reclose the shot counter is set to 1. Upon reclosing, the fault is again
detected by protection and reclose is initiated. The breaker is tripped three-pole through the "AR SHOT COUNT >0"
that will set the "AR FORCE 3P" operand. After the second reclose the shot counter is set to 2. Upon reclosing, the
fault is again detected by protection, the breaker is tripped three-pole, and reclose is initiated again. Because the shot
counter has reached the maximum number of shots permitted the scheme is sent to the lockout state.
• Transient Fault: When a reclose output signal is sent to close the breaker the reset timer is started. If the reclosure
sequence is successful (there is no initiating signal and the breaker is closed) the reset timer will time out returning the
scheme to the reset state with the shot counter set to "0" making it ready for a new reclose cycle.
RECLOSING SCHEME OPERATION FOR TWO BREAKERS:
5 • Permanent Fault: The general method of operation is the same as that outlined for the one breaker applications
except for the following description, which assumes AR BKR SEQUENCE is “1-2” (reclose Breaker 1 before Breaker 2.)
The signal output from the dead time timers passes through the breaker selection logic to initiate reclosing of Breaker
1. The Close Breaker 1 signal will initiate the Transfer Timer. After the reclose of the first breaker the fault is again
detected by the protection, the breaker is tripped three pole and the autoreclose scheme is initiated. The Initiate signal
will stop the transfer timer. After the 3-P dead time times out the Close Breaker 1 signal will close first breaker again
and will start the transfer timer. Since the fault is permanent the protection will trip again initiating the autoreclose
scheme that will be sent to Lockout by the “Shot Count = Max” signal.
• Transient Fault: When the first reclose output signal is sent to close Breaker 1, the reset timer is started. The close
Breaker 1 signal initiates the transfer timer that times out and sends the close signal to the second breaker. If the reclo-
sure sequence is successful (both breakers closed and there is no initiating signal) the reset timer will time out, return-
ing the scheme to the reset state with the shot counter set to 0. The scheme will be ready for a new reclose cycle.
AR BKR1(2) RECLS FAIL:
If the selected sequence is “1–2” or “2–1” and after the first or second reclose attempt the breaker fails to close, there are
two options. If the AR BKR 1(2) FAIL OPTION is set to “Lockout”, the scheme will go to lockout state. If the AR BKR 1(2) FAIL
OPTION is set to “Continue”, the reclose process will continue with Breaker 2. At the same time the shot counter will be
decreased (since the closing process was not completed).
SCHEME RESET AFTER RECLOSURE:
When a reclose output signal is sent to close either breaker 1 or 2 the reset timer is started. If the reclosure sequence is
successful (there is no initiating signal and the breakers are closed) the reset timer will time out, returning the scheme to
the reset state, with the shot counter set to 0, making it ready for a new reclose cycle.
In two breaker schemes, if one breaker is in the Out of Service state and the other is closed at the end of the reset time, the
scheme will also reset. If at the end of the reset time at least one breaker, which is not in the Out of Service state, is open
the scheme will be sent to Lockout.
The reset timer is stopped if the reclosure sequence is not successful: an initiating signal present or the scheme is in Lock-
out state. The reset timer is also stopped if the breaker is manually closed or the scheme is otherwise reset from lockout.
LOCKOUT:
When a reclose sequence is started by an initiate signal the scheme moves into the Reclose In Progress state and starts
the Incomplete Sequence Timer. The setting of this timer determines the maximum time interval allowed for a single reclose
shot. If a close breaker 1 or 2 signal is not present before this time expires, the scheme goes to "Lockout".
There are four other conditions that can take the scheme to the Lockout state, as shown below:
• Receipt of "Block" input while in the Reclose in Progress state
• The reclosing program logic: when a 3P Initiate is present and the autoreclose mode is either 1 Pole or 3Pole-A (3 pole
autoreclose for single pole faults only)
• Initiation of the scheme when the count is at the maximum allowed
• If at the end of the reset time at least one breaker, which is not in the OUT OF SERVICE state, is open the scheme will
be sent to Lockout. The scheme will be also sent to Lockout if one breaker fails to reclose and the setting AR BKR FAIL
OPTION is set to "Lockout".
Once the Lockout state is set it will be latched in until the scheme is intentionally reset from Lockout or a breaker is manu-
ally closed.
BREAKER OPEN BEFORE FAULT:
A logic circuit is provided that inhibits the Close Breaker 1(2) output if a reclose initiate (RIP) indicator is not present within
30 ms of the “Breaker any phase open” input. This feature is intended to prevent reclosing if one of the breakers was open
in advance of a reclose initiate input to the recloser. This logic circuit resets when the breaker is closed.
TRANSFER RECLOSE WHEN BREAKER IS BLOCKED:
1. When the reclosing sequence 1-2 is selected and Breaker 1 is blocked (AR BKR1 BLK operand is set) the reclose sig-
nal can be transferred direct to the Breaker 2 if AR TRANSFER 1 TO 2 is set to “Yes”. If set to “No”, the scheme will be
sent to Lockout by the incomplete sequence timer. 5
2. When the reclosing sequence 2-1 is selected and Breaker 2 is blocked (AR BKR2 BLK operand is set) the reclose sig-
nal can be transferred direct to the Breaker 1 if AR TRANSFER 2 TO 1 is set to “Yes”. If set to “No” the scheme will be sent
to Lockout by the incomplete sequence timer.
FORCE 3-POLE TRIPPING:
The reclosing scheme contains logic that is used to signal trip logic that three-pole tripping is required for certain conditions.
This signal is activated by any of the following:
• Autoreclose scheme is Disabled.
• Autoreclose scheme is in the Lockout state.
• Autoreclose mode is programmed for three-pole operation
• The shot counter is not at 0, i.e. the scheme is not in the Reset state. This ensures a second trip will be three-pole
when reclosing onto a permanent single phase fault.
• 1.25 cycles after the single-pole reclose is initiated by the AR 1P INIT signal.
ZONE 1 EXTENT:
The Zone 1 extension philosophy here is to apply an overreaching zone permanently as long as the relay is ready to
reclose, and reduce the reach when reclosing. Another Zone 1 extension approach is to operate normally from an under-
reaching zone, and use an overreaching distance zone when reclosing the line with the other line end open. This philoso-
phy could be programmed via the Line Pickup scheme.
"Extended Zone 1" is 0 when the AR is in LO or Disabled and 1 when the AR is in Reset.
1. When "Extended Zone 1" is 0, the distance functions shall be set to normal underreach Zone 1 setting.
2. When "Extended Zone 1" is 1, the distance functions may be set to Extended Zone 1 Reach, which is an overreaching
setting.
3. During a reclose cycle, "Extended Zone 1" goes to 0 as soon as the first CLOSE BREAKER signal is issued (AR SHOT
COUNT > 0) and remains 0 until the recloser goes back to Reset.
USE OF SETTINGS:
• AR MODE: This setting selects the AR operating mode, which functions in conjunction with signals received at the ini-
tiation inputs as described previously.
• AR MAX NUMBER OF SHOTS: This setting specifies the number of reclosures that can be attempted before reclo-
sure goes to Lockout when the fault is permanent.
• AR BLOCK BKR1: This input selects an operand that will block the reclose command for Breaker 1. This condition
can be for example: breaker low air pressure, reclose in progress on another line (for the central breaker in a breaker
and a half arrangement), or a sum of conditions combined in FlexLogic™.
• AR CLOSE TIME BKR1:This setting represents the closing time for the Breaker 1 from the moment the “Close” com-
mand is sent to the moment the contacts are closed.
• AR BKR MAN CLOSE: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand that represents manual close command to a
breaker associated with the autoreclose scheme
• AR BLK TIME UPON MAN CLS: The autoreclose scheme can be disabled for a programmable time delay after an
associated circuit breaker is manually commanded to close, preventing reclosing onto an existing fault such as
grounds on the line. This delay must be longer than the slowest expected trip from any protection not blocked after
manual closing. If the autoreclose scheme is not initiated after a manual close and this time expires the autoreclose
scheme is set to the Reset state.
• AR 1P INIT: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand that is intended to initiate single Pole autoreclosure.
• AR 3P INIT: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand that is intended to initiate three Pole autoreclosure, first timer
(AR 3P DEAD TIME 1) that can be used for a high-speed autoreclosure.
• AR 3P TD INIT: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand that is intended to initiate three Pole autoreclosure, second
timer (AR 3P DEAD TIME 2) that can be used for a time-delay autoreclosure.
5 • AR MULTI-P FAULT: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand that indicates a multi-phase fault. The operand value
should be zero for single-phase to ground faults.
• BKR ONE POLE OPEN: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand which indicates that the breaker(s) has opened
correctly following a single phase to ground fault and the autoreclose scheme can start timing the single pole dead
time (for 1-2 reclose sequence for example, Breaker 1 should trip single pole and Breaker 2 should trip 3 pole).
The scheme has a pre-wired input that indicates breaker(s) status.
• BKR 3 POLE OPEN: This setting selects a FlexLogic™ operand which indicates that the breaker(s) has opened three
pole and the autoreclose scheme can start timing the three pole dead time. The scheme has a pre-wired input that indi-
cates breaker(s) status.
• AR 3-P DEAD TIME 1: This is the dead time following the first three pole trip. This intentional delay can be used for a
high-speed three-pole autoreclose. However, it should be set longer than the estimated de-ionizing time following the
three-pole trip.
• AR 3-P DEAD TIME 2: This is the dead time following the second three-pole trip or initiated by the AR 3P TD INIT
input. This intentional delay is typically used for a time delayed three-pole autoreclose (as opposed to high speed
three-pole autoreclose).
• AR EXTEND DEAD T 1: This setting selects an operand that will adapt the duration of the dead time for the first shot
to the possibility of non-simultaneous tripping at the two line ends. Typically this is the operand set when the communi-
cation channel is out of service
• AR DEAD TIME 1 EXTENSION: This timer is used to set the length of the dead time 1 extension for possible non-
simultaneous tripping of the two ends of the line.
• AR RESET: This setting selects the operand that forces the autoreclose scheme from any state to Reset. Typically this
is a manual reset from lockout, local or remote.
• AR RESET TIME: A reset timer output resets the recloser following a successful reclosure sequence. The setting is
based on the breaker time which is the minimum time required between successive reclose sequences.
• AR BKR CLOSED: This setting selects an operand that indicates that the breaker(s) are closed at the end of the reset
time and the scheme can reset.
• AR BLOCK: This setting selects the operand that blocks the Autoreclose scheme (it can be a sum of conditions such
as: Time Delayed Tripping, Breaker Failure, Bus Differential Protection, etc.). If the block signal is present before
autoreclose scheme initiation the AR DISABLED FlexLogic™ operand will be set. If the block signal occurs when the
scheme is in the RIP state the scheme will be sent to Lockout.
• AR PAUSE: The pause input offers the ability to freeze the autoreclose cycle until the pause signal disappears. This
may be done when a trip occurs and simultaneously or previously, some conditions are detected such as out-of step or
loss of guard frequency, or a remote transfer trip signal is received. When the "pause" signal disappears the autore-
close cycle is resumed. This feature can also be used when a transformer is tapped from the protected line and a
reclose is not desirable until the it is disconnected from the line. In this situation, the reclose scheme is "paused" until
the transformer is disconnected.
• AR INCOMPLETE SEQ TIME: This timer is used to set the maximum time interval allowed for a single reclose shot. It
is started whenever a reclosure is initiated and is active until the CLOSE BKR1 or BKR2 signal is sent. If all conditions
allowing a breaker closure are not satisfied when this time expires, the scheme goes to "Lockout". The minimum per-
missible setting is established by the "3-P Dead Time 2" timer setting. Settings beyond this will determine the "wait"
time for the breaker to open so that the reclose cycle can continue and/or for the AR PAUSE signal to reset and allow
the reclose cycle to continue and/or for the AR BKR1(2) BLK signal to disappear and allow the AR CLOSE BKR1(2)
signal to be sent.
• AR BLOCK BKR2: This input selects an operand that will block the reclose command for Breaker 2. This condition
can be for example: breaker low air pressure, reclose in progress on another line (for the central breaker in a breaker
and a half arrangement), or a sum of conditions combined in FlexLogic™.
• AR BKR2 MNL CLOSE: This setting selects an operand asserted when Breaker 2 is manually commanded to close.
• AR CLOSE TIME BKR2: This setting represents the closing time for the Breaker 2 from the moment the “Close” com-
mand is sent to the moment the contacts are closed.
• AR TRANSFER 1 TO 2: This setting establishes how the scheme performs when the breaker closing sequence is 1-2 5
and Breaker 1 is blocked. When set to “Yes” the closing command will be transferred direct to Breaker 2 without wait-
ing the transfer time. When set to “No” the closing command will be blocked by the AR BKR1 BLK signal and the
scheme will be sent to Lockout by the incomplete sequence timer.
• AR TRANSFER 2 TO 1: This setting establishes how the scheme performs when the breaker closing sequence is 2-1
and Breaker 2 is blocked. When set to “Yes” the closing command will be transferred direct to Breaker 1 without wait-
ing the transfer time. When set to “No”, the closing command will be blocked by the AR BKR2 BLK signal and the
scheme will be sent to Lockout by the incomplete sequence timer.
• AR BKR1 FAIL OPTION: This setting establishes how the scheme performs when the breaker closing sequence is 1-
2 and Breaker 1 has failed to close. When set to “Continue” the closing command will be transferred to Breaker 2
which will continue the reclosing cycle until successful (the scheme will reset) or unsuccessful (the scheme will go to
Lockout). When set to “Lockout” the scheme will go to lockout without attempting to reclose Breaker 2.
• AR BKR2 FAIL OPTION: This setting establishes how the scheme performs when the breaker closing sequence is 2-
1 and Breaker 2 has failed to close. When set to “Continue” the closing command will be transferred to Breaker 1
which will continue the reclosing cycle until successful (the scheme will reset) or unsuccessful (the scheme will go to
Lockout). When set to “Lockout” the scheme will go to lockout without attempting to reclose Breaker 1.
• AR 1-P DEAD TIME: Set this intentional delay longer than the estimated de-ionizing time after the first single-pole trip.
• AR BREAKER SEQUENCE: This setting selects the breakers reclose sequence:
1 = reclose breaker 1 only
2 = reclose breaker 2 only
1&2 = reclose both breakers simultaneously
1-2 = reclose breakers sequentially; Breaker 1 first
2-1 = reclose breakers sequentially; Breaker 2 first
• AR TRANSFER TIME: The transfer time is used only for breaker closing sequence 1-2 or 2-1, when the two breakers
are reclosed sequentially. The transfer timer is initiated by a close signal to the first breaker. The transfer timer trans-
fers the reclose signal from the breaker selected to close first to the second breaker. The time delay setting is based on
the maximum time interval between the autoreclose signal and the protection trip contact closure assuming a perma-
nent fault (unsuccessful reclose). Therefore, the minimum setting is equal to the maximum breaker closing time plus
the maximum line protection operating time plus a suitable margin. This setting will prevent the autoreclose scheme
from transferring the close signal to the second breaker unless a successful reclose of the first breaker occurs.

PATH: SETTINGS !" CONTROL ELEMENTS !" DIGITAL COUNTERS ! COUNTER 1(8)
There are 8 identical digital counters, numbered from 1 to 8. A digital counter counts the number of state transitions from
Logic 0 to Logic 1. The counter is used to count operations such as the pickups of an element, the changes of state of an
external contact (e.g. breaker auxiliary switch), or pulses from a watt-hour meter.
• COUNTER 1 UNITS: Assigns a label to identify the unit of measure pertaining to the digital transitions to be counted.
The units label will appear in the corresponding Actual Values status.
• COUNTER 1 PRESET: Sets the count to a required preset value before counting operations begin, as in the case
where a substitute relay is to be installed in place of an in-service relay, or while the counter is running.
• COUNTER 1 COMPARE: Sets the value to which the accumulated count value is compared. Three FlexLogic™ output
operands are provided to indicate if the present value is ‘more than (HI)’, ‘equal to (EQL)’, or ‘less than (LO)’ the set
value.
• COUNTER 1 UP: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for incrementing the counter. If an enabled UP input is received
when the accumulated value is at the limit of +2,147,483,647 counts, the counter will rollover to –2,147,483,648.
• COUNTER 1 DOWN: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for decrementing the counter. If an enabled DOWN input is
received when the accumulated value is at the limit of –2,147,483,648 counts, the counter will rollover to
+2,147,483,647.
• COUNTER 1 BLOCK: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for blocking the counting operation. All counter operands are
blocked.
• CNT1 SET TO PRESET: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand used to set the count to the preset value. The counter will
be set to the preset value in the following situations:
1. When the counter is enabled and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand has the value 1 (when the counter is enabled
and CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand is 0, the counter will be set to 0).
2. When the counter is running and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand changes the state from 0 to 1 (CNT1 SET TO
PRESET changing from 1 to 0 while the counter is running has no effect on the count).
3. When a reset or reset/freeze command is sent to the counter and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand has the value
1 (when a reset or reset/freeze command is sent to the counter and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand has the
value 0, the counter will be set to 0).
• COUNTER 1 RESET: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for setting the count to either “0” or the preset value depending
on the state of the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand.
• COUNTER 1 FREEZE/RESET: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for capturing (freezing) the accumulated count value
into a separate register with the date and time of the operation, and resetting the count to “0”.
• COUNTER 1 FREEZE/COUNT: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for capturing (freezing) the accumulated count value
into a separate register with the date and time of the operation, and continuing counting. The present accumulated
value and captured frozen value with the associated date/time stamp are available as actual values. If control power is
interrupted, the accumulated and frozen values are saved into non-volatile memory during the power down operation.

There are 2 identical Breaker Arcing Current features available for Breakers 1 and 2. This element calculates an estimate
of the per-phase wear on the breaker contacts by measuring and integrating the current squared passing through the
breaker contacts as an arc. These per-phase values are added to accumulated totals for each phase and compared to a
programmed threshold value. When the threshold is exceeded in any phase, the relay can set an output operand to “1”.
The accumulated value for each phase can be displayed as an actual value.
The operation of the scheme is shown in the following logic diagram. The same output operand that is selected to operate
the output relay used to trip the breaker, indicating a tripping sequence has begun, is used to initiate this feature. A time
delay is introduced between initiation and the starting of integration to prevent integration of current flow through the
breaker before the contacts have parted. This interval includes the operating time of the output relay, any other auxiliary
relays and the breaker mechanism. For maximum measurement accuracy, the interval between change-of-state of the
operand (from 0 to 1) and contact separation should be measured for the specific installation. Integration of the measured
current continues for 100 ms, which is expected to include the total arcing period.
• BKR 1(2) ARC AMP INIT: Selects the same output operand that is selected to operate the output relay used to trip the
breaker.
• BKR 1(2) ARC AMP DELAY: This setting is used to program the delay interval between the time the tripping sequence
is initiated and the time the breaker contacts are expected to part, starting the integration of the measured current.
• BKR 1(2) ARC AMP LIMIT: Selects the threshold value above which the output operand is set.

The contact inputs menu contains configuration settings for each contact input as well as voltage thresholds for each group
of four contact inputs. Upon startup, the relay processor determines (from an assessment of the installed modules) which
contact inputs are available and then display settings for only those inputs.
An alphanumeric ID may be assigned to a contact input for diagnostic, setting, and event recording purposes. The "Contact
Ip X On" (Logic 1) FlexLogic™ operand corresponds to contact input "X" being closed, while "Contact Input X Off" corre-
sponds to contact input "X" being open. The CONTACT INPUT DEBNCE TIME defines the time required for the contact to over-
come ’contact bouncing’ conditions. As this time differs for different contact types and manufacturers, set it as a maximum
contact debounce time (per manufacturer specifications) plus some margin to ensure proper operation. If CONTACT INPUT
EVENTS is set to "Enabled", every change in the contact input state will trigger an event.
A raw status is scanned for all Contact Inputs synchronously at the constant rate of 0.5 ms as shown in the figure below.
The DC input voltage is compared to a user-settable threshold. A new contact input state must be maintained for a user-
settable debounce time in order for the C60 to validate the new contact state. In the figure below, the debounce time is set
at 2.5 ms; thus the 6th sample in a row validates the change of state (mark no.1 in the diagram). Once validated (de-
bounced), the contact input asserts a corresponding FlexLogic™ operand and logs an event as per user setting.
A time stamp of the first sample in the sequence that validates the new state is used when logging the change of the con-
tact input into the Event Recorder (mark no. 2 in the diagram).
Protection and control elements, as well as FlexLogic™ equations and timers, are executed eight times in a power system
cycle. The protection pass duration is controlled by the frequency tracking mechanism. The FlexLogic™ operand reflecting
the debounced state of the contact is updated at the protection pass following the validation (marks no. 3 and 4 on the fig-
ure below). The update is performed at the beginning of the protection pass so all protection and control functions, as well
as FlexLogic™ equations, are fed with the updated states of the contact inputs.
The FlexLogic™ operand response time to the contact input change is equal to the debounce time setting plus up to one
protection pass (variable and depending on system frequency if frequency tracking enabled). If the change of state occurs
just after a protection pass, the recognition is delayed until the subsequent protection pass; that is, by the entire duration of
the protection pass. If the change occurs just prior to a protection pass, the state is recognized immediately. Statistically a
delay of half the protection pass is expected. Owing to the 0.5 ms scan rate, the time resolution for the input contact is
below 1msec.
For example, 8 protection passes per cycle on a 60 Hz system correspond to a protection pass every 2.1 ms. With a con-
tact debounce time setting of 3.0 ms, the FlexLogic™ operand-assert time limits are: 3.0 + 0.0 = 3.0 ms and 3.0 + 2.1 = 5.1
ms. These time limits depend on how soon the protection pass runs after the debouncing time.
Regardless of the contact debounce time setting, the contact input event is time-stamped with a 1 µs accuracy using the
time of the first scan corresponding to the new state (mark no. 2 below). Therefore, the time stamp reflects a change in the
DC voltage across the contact input terminals that was not accidental as it was subsequently validated using the debounce
timer. Keep in mind that the associated FlexLogic™ operand is asserted/de-asserted later, after validating the change.
The debounce algorithm is symmetrical: the same procedure and debounce time are used to filter the LOW-HIGH (marks
no.1, 2, 3, and 4 in the figure below) and HIGH-LOW (marks no. 5, 6, 7, and 8 below) transitions.

Figure 5–71: INPUT CONTACT DEBOUNCING MECHANISM AND TIME-STAMPING SAMPLE TIMING
Contact inputs are isolated in groups of four to allow connection of wet contacts from different voltage sources for each
group. The CONTACT INPUT THRESHOLDS determine the minimum voltage required to detect a closed contact input. This
value should be selected according to the following criteria: 16 for 24 V sources, 30 for 48 V sources, 80 for 110 to 125 V
sources and 140 for 250 V sources.
For example, to use contact input H5a as a status input from the breaker 52b contact to seal-in the trip relay and record it in
the Event Records menu, make the following settings changes:
CONTACT INPUT H5A ID: "Breaker Closed (52b)"
CONTACT INPUT H5A EVENTS: "Enabled"
Note that the 52b contact is closed when the breaker is open and open when the breaker is closed.

5 There are 32 virtual inputs that can be individually programmed to respond to input signals from the keypad (COMMANDS
menu) and communications protocols. All virtual input operands are defaulted to OFF = 0 unless the appropriate input sig-
nal is received. Virtual input states are preserved through a control power loss.
If the VIRTUAL INPUT x FUNCTION is to "Disabled", the input will be forced to 'OFF' (Logic 0) regardless of any attempt to alter
the input. If set to "Enabled", the input operates as shown on the logic diagram and generates output FlexLogic™ operands
in response to received input signals and the applied settings.
There are two types of operation: Self-Reset and Latched. If VIRTUAL INPUT x TYPE is "Self-Reset", when the input signal
transits from OFF = 0 to ON = 1, the output operand will be set to ON = 1 for only one evaluation of the FlexLogic™ equa-
tions and then return to OFF = 0. If set to "Latched", the virtual input sets the state of the output operand to the same state
as the most recent received input, ON =1 or OFF = 0.
The "Self-Reset" operating mode generates the output operand for a single evaluation of the FlexLogic™
equations. If the operand is to be used anywhere other than internally in a FlexLogic™ equation, it will
NOTE
likely have to be lengthened in time. A FlexLogic™ timer with a delayed reset can perform this function.
The Select-Before-Operate timer sets the interval from the receipt of an Operate signal to the automatic de-selection of the
virtual input, so that an input does not remain selected indefinitely (used only with the UCA Select-Before-Operate feature).

Upon startup of the relay, the main processor will determine from an assessment of the modules installed in the chassis
which contact outputs are available and present the settings for only these outputs.
An ID may be assigned to each contact output. The signal that can OPERATE a contact output may be any FlexLogic™
operand (virtual output, element state, contact input, or virtual input). An additional FlexLogic™ operand may be used to
SEAL-IN the relay. Any change of state of a contact output can be logged as an Event if programmed to do so.
EXAMPLE:
The trip circuit current is monitored by providing a current threshold detector in series with some Form-A contacts (see the
Trip Circuit Example in the Digital Elements section). The monitor will set a flag (see the Specifications for Form-A). The
name of the FlexLogic™ operand set by the monitor, consists of the output relay designation, followed by the name of the
flag; e.g. ‘Cont Op 1 IOn’ or ‘Cont Op 1 IOff’.
In most breaker control circuits, the trip coil is connected in series with a breaker auxiliary contact used to interrupt current
5
flow after the breaker has tripped, to prevent damage to the less robust initiating contact. This can be done by monitoring
an auxiliary contact on the breaker which opens when the breaker has tripped, but this scheme is subject to incorrect oper-
ation caused by differences in timing between breaker auxiliary contact change-of-state and interruption of current in the
trip circuit. The most dependable protection of the initiating contact is provided by directly measuring current in the tripping
circuit, and using this parameter to control resetting of the initiating relay. This scheme is often called "trip seal-in".
This can be realized in the UR using the ‘Cont Op 1 IOn’ FlexLogic™ operand to seal-in the Contact Output as follows:
CONTACT OUTPUT H1 ID: “Cont Op 1"
OUTPUT H1 OPERATE: any suitable FlexLogic™ operand
OUTPUT H1 SEAL-IN: “Cont Op 1 IOn”
CONTACT OUTPUT H1 EVENTS: “Enabled”
PATH: SETTINGS !" INPUTS/OUTPUTS !" LATCHING OUTPUTS ! LATCHING OUTPUT H1a
The C60 latching output contacts are mechanically bi-stable and controlled by two separate (open and close) coils. As such
they retain their position even if the relay is not powered up. The relay recognizes all latching output contact cards and pop-
ulates the setting menu accordingly. On power up, the relay reads positions of the latching contacts from the hardware
before executing any other functions of the relay (such as protection and control features or FlexLogic™).
The latching output modules, either as a part of the relay or as individual modules, are shipped from the factory with all
latching contacts opened. It is highly recommended to double-check the programming and positions of the latching con-
tacts when replacing a module.
Since the relay asserts the output contact and reads back its position, it is possible to incorporate self-monitoring capabili-
ties for the latching outputs. If any latching outputs exhibits a discrepancy, the LATCHING OUTPUT ERROR self-test error is
declared. The error is signaled by the LATCHING OUT ERROR FlexLogic™ operand, event, and target message.
• OUTPUT H1 OPERATE: This setting specifies a FlexLogic™ operand to operate the ‘close coil’ of the contact. The
relay will seal-in this input to safely close the contact. Once the contact is closed, any activity exhibited by this input,
such as subsequent chattering, will not have any effect.
• OUTPUT H1 RESET: This setting specifies a FlexLogic™ operand to operate the ‘trip coil’ of the contact. The relay will
seal-in this input to safely open the contact. Once the contact is opened, any activity exhibited by this input, such as
subsequent chattering, will not have any effect.
• OUTPUT H1 TYPE: This setting specifies the contact response under conflicting control inputs; that is, when both the
operate and reset signals are applied. With both control inputs applied simultaneously, the contact will close if set to
“Operate-dominant” and will open if set to “Reset-dominant”.
Application Example 1:
A latching output contact H1a is to be controlled from two user-programmable pushbuttons (buttons number 1 and 2). The
following settings should be applied.
5 Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS !" INPUTS/OUTPUT !" LATCHING OUT-
PUTS ! LATCHING OUTPUT H1a menu (assuming an H4L module):
Program the pushbuttons by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP !" USER-PROGRAMMABLE PUSHBUT-
TONS !" USER PUSHBUTTON 1 and USER PUSHBUTTON 2 menus:
Application Example 2:
A relay, having two latching contacts H1a and H1c, is to be programmed. The H1a contact is to be a Type-a contact, while
the H1c contact is to be a Type-b contact (Type-a means closed after exercising the operate input; Type-b means closed
after exercising the reset input). The relay is to be controlled from virtual outputs: VO1 to operate and VO2 to reset.
Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS !" INPUTS/OUTPUT !" LATCHING OUT-
PUTS ! LATCHING OUTPUT H1a and LATCHING OUTPUT H1c menus (assuming an H4L module):
Since the two physical contacts in this example are mechanically separated and have individual control inputs, they will not
operate at exactly the same time. A discrepancy in the range of a fraction of a maximum operating time may occur. There-
fore, a pair of contacts programmed to be a multi-contact relay will not guarantee any specific sequence of operation (such
as make before break). If required, the sequence of operation must be programmed explicitly by delaying some of the con-
trol inputs as shown in the next application example.
Application Example 3:
A make before break functionality must be added to the preceding example. An overlap of 20 ms is required to implement
this functionality as described below:
Both timers (Timer 1 and Timer 2) should be set to 20 ms pickup and 0 ms dropout.
Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS !" INPUTS/OUTPUT !" LATCHING OUT-
PUTS ! LATCHING OUTPUT H1a and LATCHING OUTPUT H1c menus (assuming an H4L module):
Application Example 4:
A latching contact H1a is to be controlled from a single virtual output VO1. The contact should stay closed as long as VO1
is high, and should stay opened when VO1 is low. Program the relay as follows.
Write the following FlexLogic™ equation (URPC example shown):
Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS !" INPUTS/OUTPUT !" LATCHING OUT-
PUTS ! LATCHING OUTPUT H1a menu (assuming an H4L module):
OUTPUT H1a OPERATE: “VO1”
OUTPUT H1a RESET: “VO2”
There are 64 virtual outputs that may be assigned via FlexLogic™. If not assigned, the output will be forced to ‘OFF’ (Logic
0). An ID may be assigned to each virtual output. Virtual outputs are resolved in each pass through the evaluation of the
FlexLogic™ equations. Any change of state of a virtual output can be logged as an event if programmed to do so.
For example, if Virtual Output 1 is the trip signal from FlexLogic™ and the trip relay is used to signal events, the settings
would be programmed as follows:
VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 ID: "Trip"
VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 EVENTS: "Disabled"
5 Receiving devices are constantly monitoring the communications network for messages they require, as recognized by the
identification of the originating device carried in the message. Messages received from remote devices include the mes-
sage “hold” time for the device. The receiving relay sets a timer assigned to the originating device to the “hold” time interval,
and if it has not received another message from this device at time-out, the remote device is declared to be non-communi-
cating, so it will use the programmed default state for all points from that specific remote device. This mechanism allows a
receiving device to fail to detect a single transmission from a remote device which is sending messages at the slowest pos-
sible rate, as set by its “default update” timer, without reverting to use of the programmed default states. If a message is
received from a remote device before the “hold” time expires, all points for that device are updated to the states contained
in the message and the hold timer is restarted. The status of a remote device, where ‘Offline’ indicates ‘non-communicat-
ing’, can be displayed.
The GOOSE facility provides for 32 remote inputs and 64 remote outputs.
Sixteen Remote Devices, numbered from 1 to 16, can be selected for setting purposes. A receiving relay must be pro-
grammed to capture messages from only those originating remote devices of interest. This setting is used to select specific
remote devices by entering (bottom row) the exact identification (ID) assigned to those devices.
PATH: SETTINGS !" INPUTS/OUTPUTS !" REMOTE INPUTS ! REMOTE INPUT 1(32)
Remote Inputs which create FlexLogic™ operands at the receiving relay, are extracted from GOOSE messages originating
in remote devices. The relay provides 32 Remote Inputs, each of which can be selected from a list consisting of 64 selec-
tions: DNA-1 through DNA-32 and UserSt-1 through UserSt-32. The function of DNA inputs is defined in the UCA2 specifi-
cations and is presented in the UCA2 DNA Assignments table in the Remote Outputs section. The function of UserSt inputs
is defined by the user selection of the FlexLogic™ operand whose state is represented in the GOOSE message. A user
must program a DNA point from the appropriate FlexLogic™ operand.
Remote Input 1 must be programmed to replicate the logic state of a specific signal from a specific remote device for local
use. This programming is performed via the three settings shown above.
REMOTE IN 1 DEVICE selects the number (1 to 16) of the Remote Device which originates the required signal, as previously
assigned to the remote device via the setting REMOTE DEVICE NN ID (see the Remote Devices section). REMOTE IN 1 BIT PAIR
selects the specific bits of the GOOSE message required. 5
The REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE setting selects the logic state for this point if the local relay has just completed startup or
the remote device sending the point is declared to be non-communicating. The following choices are available:
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “On” value defaults the input to Logic 1.
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “Off” value defaults the input to Logic 0.
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “Latest/On” freezes the input in case of lost communications. If the latest state is
not known, such as after relay power-up but before the first communication exchange, the input will default to Logic 1.
When communication resumes, the input becomes fully operational.
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “Latest/Off” freezes the input in case of lost communications. If the latest state is
not known, such as after relay power-up but before the first communication exchange, the input will default to Logic 0.
When communication resumes, the input becomes fully operational.
For additional information on the GOOSE specification, refer to the Remote Devices section in this chapter
and to Appendix C: UCA/MMS Communications.
NOTE
Remote Outputs (1 to 32) are FlexLogic™ operands inserted into GOOSE messages that are transmitted to remote
devices on a LAN. Each digital point in the message must be programmed to carry the state of a specific FlexLogic™ oper-
and. The above operand setting represents a specific DNA function (as shown in the following table) to be transmitted.

Example 1: Extending I/O Capabilities of a C60 relay
Consider an application that requires additional quantities of digital inputs and/or output contacts and/or lines of program-
mable logic that exceed the capabilities of a single UR chassis. The problem is solved by adding an extra UR IED, such as

# DCMA INPUT U8
MESSAGE
#
Hardware and software is provided to receive signals from external transducers and convert these signals into a digital for-
mat for use as required. The relay will accept inputs in the range of –1 to +20 mA DC, suitable for use with most common
transducer output ranges; all inputs are assumed to be linear over the complete range. Specific hardware details are con-
tained in Chapter 3.
Before the dcmA input signal can be used, the value of the signal measured by the relay must be converted to the range
and quantity of the external transducer primary input parameter, such as DC voltage or temperature. The relay simplifies
this process by internally scaling the output from the external transducer and displaying the actual primary parameter.
dcmA input channels are arranged in a manner similar to CT and VT channels. The user configures individual channels
with the settings shown here.
The channels are arranged in sub-modules of two channels, numbered from 1 through 8 from top to bottom. On power-up,
the relay will automatically generate configuration settings for every channel, based on the order code, in the same general
manner that is used for CTs and VTs. Each channel is assigned a slot letter followed by the row number, 1 through 8 inclu-
sive, which is used as the channel number. The relay generates an actual value for each available input channel.
Settings are automatically generated for every channel available in the specific relay as shown below for the first channel of
5
a type 5F transducer module installed in slot M.
The function of the channel may be either “Enabled” or “Disabled.” If “Disabled”, no actual values are created for the chan-
nel. An alphanumeric “ID” is assigned to each channel; this ID will be included in the channel actual value, along with the
programmed units associated with the parameter measured by the transducer, such as Volt, °C, MegaWatts, etc. This ID is
also used to reference the channel as the input parameter to features designed to measure this type of parameter. The
DCMA INPUT XX RANGE setting specifies the mA DC range of the transducer connected to the input channel.
The DCMA INPUT XX MIN VALUE and DCMA INPUT XX MAX VALUE settings are used to program the span of the transducer in
primary units. For example, a temperature transducer might have a span from 0 to 250°C; in this case the DCMA INPUT XX
MIN VALUE value is “0” and the DCMA INPUT XX MAX VALUE value is “250”. Another example would be a Watt transducer with
a span from –20 to +180 MW; in this case the DCMA INPUT XX MIN VALUE value would be “–20” and the DCMA INPUT XX MAX
VALUE value “180”. Intermediate values between the min and max values are scaled linearly.

RTD INPUT M5
FUNCTION: Disabled
Range: Disabled, Enabled
The function of the channel may be either “Enabled” or “Disabled.” If Disabled, there will not be an actual value created for
the channel. An alphanumeric “ID” is assigned to the channel; this ID will be included in the channel actual values. It is also
used to reference the channel as the input parameter to features designed to measure this type of parameter. Selecting the
type of RTD connected to the channel configures the channel.
Actions based on RTD overtemperature, such as trips or alarms, are done in conjunction with the FlexElements™ feature.
In FlexElements™, the operate level is scaled to a base of 100°C. For example, a trip level of 150°C is achieved by setting
the operate level at 1.5 pu. FlexElement™ operands are available to FlexLogic™ for further interlocking or to operate an
output contact directly.
The relay provides test settings to verify that functionality using simulated conditions for contact inputs and outputs. The
Test Mode is indicated on the relay faceplate by a flashing Test Mode LED indicator.
To initiate the Test mode, the TEST MODE FUNCTION setting must be “Enabled” and the TEST MODE INITIATE setting must be
set to Logic 1. In particular:
• To initiate Test Mode through relay settings, set TEST MODE INITIATE to “On”. The Test Mode starts when the TEST MODE
FUNCTION setting is changed from “Disabled” to “Enabled”.
• To initiate Test Mode through a user-programmable condition, such as FlexLogic™ operand (pushbutton, digital input,
communication-based input, or a combination of these), set TEST MODE FUNCTION to “Enabled” and set TEST MODE INI-
TIATE to the desired operand. The Test Mode starts when the selected operand assumes a Logic 1 state.
When in Test Mode, the C60 remains fully operational, allowing for various testing procedures. In particular, the protection
and control elements, FlexLogic™, and communication-based inputs and outputs function normally.
The only difference between the normal operation and the Test Mode is the behavior of the input and output contacts. The
former can be forced to report as open or closed or remain fully operational; the latter can be forced to open, close, freeze,
or remain fully operational. The response of the digital input and output contacts to the Test Mode is programmed individu-
ally for each input and output using the Force Contact Inputs and Force Contact Outputs test functions described in the fol- 5
lowing sections.
The relay digital inputs (contact inputs) could be pre-programmed to respond to the Test Mode in the following ways:
• If set to “Disabled”, the input remains fully operational. It is controlled by the voltage across its input terminals and can
be turned on and off by external circuitry. This value should be selected if a given input must be operational during the
test. This includes, for example, an input initiating the test, or being a part of a user pre-programmed test sequence.
• If set to “Open”, the input is forced to report as opened (Logic 0) for the entire duration of the Test Mode regardless of
the voltage across the input terminals.
• If set to “Closed”, the input is forced to report as closed (Logic 1) for the entire duration of the Test Mode regardless of
the voltage across the input terminals.
The Force Contact Inputs feature provides a method of performing checks on the function of all contact inputs. Once
enabled, the relay is placed into Test Mode, allowing this feature to override the normal function of contact inputs. The Test
Mode LED will be On, indicating that the relay is in Test Mode. The state of each contact input may be programmed as “Dis-
abled”, “Open”, or “Closed”. All contact input operations return to normal when all settings for this feature are disabled.
The relay contact outputs can be pre-programmed to respond to the Test Mode.
If set to “Disabled”, the contact output remains fully operational. If operates when its control operand is Logic 1 and will
resets when its control operand is Logic 0. If set to “Energize”, the output will close and remain closed for the entire duration
of the Test Mode, regardless of the status of the operand configured to control the output contact. If set to “De-energize”,
the output will open and remain opened for the entire duration of the Test Mode regardless of the status of the operand con-
figured to control the output contact. If set to “Freeze”, the output retains its position from before entering the Test Mode,
regardless of the status of the operand configured to control the output contact.
These settings are applied two ways. First, external circuits may be tested by energizing or de-energizing contacts. Sec-
ond, by controlling the output contact state, relay logic may be tested and undesirable effects on external circuits avoided.
Example 1: Initiating a Test from User-Programmable Pushbutton 1
5 The Test Mode should be initiated from User-Programmable Pushbutton 1. The pushbutton will be programmed as

The AVERAGE MSG RETURN TIME is the time taken for Direct Output messages to return to the sender in a Direct I/O ring
configuration (this value is not applicable for non-ring configurations). This is a rolling average calculated for the last 10
messages. There are two return times for dual-channel communications modules.
The UNRETURNED MSG COUNT values (one per communications channel) count the Direct Output messages that do not
make the trip around the communications ring. The CRC FAIL COUNT values (one per communications channel) count the
Direct Output messages that have been received but fail the CRC check. High values for either of these counts may indi-
cate on a problem with wiring, the communication channel, or the relay(s). The UNRETURNED MSG COUNT and CRC FAIL
COUNT values can be cleared using the CLEAR DIRECT I/O COUNTERS command.
The DIRECT INPUT x values represent the state of the x-th Direct Input.

Four identical Source menus are available. The "SRC 1" text will be replaced by whatever name was programmed by the
user for the associated source (see SETTINGS !" SYSTEM SETUP !" SIGNAL SOURCES).
The relay measures (absolute values only) SOURCE DEMAND on each phase and average three phase demand for real,
6 reactive, and apparent power. These parameters can be monitored to reduce supplier demand penalties or for statistical
metering purposes. Demand calculations are based on the measurement type selected in the SETTINGS " PRODUCT SETUP
!" DEMAND menu. For each quantity, the relay displays the demand over the most recent demand time interval, the maxi-
mum demand since the last maximum demand reset, and the time and date stamp of this maximum demand value. Maxi-
mum demand quantities can be reset to zero with the CLEAR RECORDS !" CLEAR DEMAND RECORDS command.
SOURCE FREQUENCY is measured via software-implemented zero-crossing detection of an AC signal. The signal is either a
Clarke transformation of three-phase voltages or currents, auxiliary voltage, or ground current as per source configuration
(see the SYSTEM SETUP !" POWER SYSTEM settings). The signal used for frequency estimation is low-pass filtered. The
final frequency measurement is passed through a validation filter that eliminates false readings due to signal distortions and
transients.

The latest 10 fault reports can be stored. The most recent fault location calculation (when applicable) is displayed in this
menu, along with the date and time stamp of the event which triggered the calculation. See the SETTINGS ! PRODUCT
SETUP !" FAULT REPORT menu for assigning the Source and Trigger for fault calculations. Refer to the COMMANDS !"
CLEAR RECORDS menu for clearing fault reports.
Fault Type determination is required for calculation of Fault Location – the algorithm uses the angle between the negative
and positive sequence components of the relay currents. To improve accuracy and speed of operation, the fault compo-
nents of the currents are used, i.e., the pre-fault phasors are subtracted from the measured current phasors. In addition to
the angle relationships, certain extra checks are performed on magnitudes of the negative and zero sequence currents.
The single-ended fault location method assumes that the fault components of the currents supplied from the local (A) and
remote (B) systems are in phase. The figure below shows an equivalent system for fault location.
6
Local distance to fault Remote
Bus Bus
ZA IA mZ (1 – m)Z IB ZB
EA VF RF EB
VA VB
Inserting Equations 6.2 and 6.3 into Equation 6.1 and solving for the fault resistance yields:
VA – m ⋅ Z ⋅ IA
R F = ----------------------------------- (EQ 6.4)
I BF
I AF ⋅ 1 + ------- -
I AF
Assuming the fault components of the currents, IAF and IBF are in phase, and observing that the fault resistance, as imped-
ance, does not have any imaginary part gives:
VA – m ⋅ Z ⋅ IA
Im ----------------------------------- = 0 (EQ 6.5)
I AF
where: Im() represents the imaginary part of a complex number. Equation 6.5 solved for the unknown m creates the follow-
ing fault location algorithm:
Im ( V A ⋅ I AF∗ )
m = ---------------------------------------
- (EQ 6.6)
Im ( Z ⋅ I A ⋅ I AF∗ )
Depending on the fault type, appropriate voltage and current signals are selected from the phase quantities before applying
Equations 6.6 and 6.7 (the superscripts denote phases, the subscripts denote stations):
A A
• For AG faults: V A = V A , I A = I A + K 0 ⋅ I 0A
B B
• For BG faults: V A = V A , I A = I A + K 0 ⋅ I 0A
C BC
• For CG faults: V A = V A , I A = I A + K 0 ⋅ I 0A
A B A B
• For AB and ABG faults: V A = V A – V A , IA = IA – IA
B C B C
• For BC and BCG faults: V A = V A – V A , IA = IA – IA
C A C A
• For CA and CAG faults: V A = V A – V A , I A = I A – I A
where K0 is the zero sequence compensation factor (for the first six equations above)
6 • For ABC faults, all three AB, BC, and CA loops are analyzed and the final result is selected based upon consistency of
the results
The element calculates the distance to the fault (with m in miles or kilometers) and the phases involved in the fault.

When there are no active targets, the first target to become active will cause the display to immediately default to that mes-
sage. If there are active targets and the user is navigating through other messages, and when the default message timer
times out (i.e. the keypad has not been used for a determined period of time), the display will again default back to the tar-
get message.
The range of variables for the target messages is described below. Phase information will be included if applicable. If a tar-
get message status changes, the status with the highest priority will be displayed.
If a self test error is detected, a message appears indicating the cause of the error. For example UNIT NOT PROGRAMMED
indicates that the minimal relay settings have not been programmed. 7
7.2.3 RELAY SELF-TESTS
The relay performs a number of self-test diagnostic checks to ensure device integrity. The two types of self-tests (major and
minor) are listed in the tables below. When either type of self-test error occurs, the Trouble LED Indicator will turn on and a
target message displayed. All errors record an event in the event recorder. Latched errors can be cleared by pressing the
RESET key, providing the condition is no longer present.
Major self-test errors also result in the following:
• the critical fail relay on the power supply module is de-energized
• all other output relays are de-energized and are prevented from further operation
• the faceplate In Service LED indicator is turned off
• a RELAY OUT OF SERVICE event is recorded
Most of the minor self-test errors can be disabled. Refer to the settings in the User-Programmable Self-Tests section in
Chapter 5 for additional details.

The UR series relays support a number of communications protocols to allow connection to equipment such as personal
computers, RTUs, SCADA masters, and programmable logic controllers. The Modicon Modbus RTU protocol is the most
basic protocol supported by the UR. Modbus is available via RS232 or RS485 serial links or via ethernet (using the Mod-
bus/TCP specification). The following description is intended primarily for users who wish to develop their own master com-
munication drivers and applies to the serial Modbus RTU protocol. Note that:
• The UR always acts as a slave device, meaning that it never initiates communications; it only listens and responds to B
requests issued by a master computer.
• For Modbus®, a subset of the Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) protocol format is supported that allows extensive monitor-
ing, programming, and control functions using read and write register commands.
The Modbus® RTU protocol is hardware-independent so that the physical layer can be any of a variety of standard hard-
ware configurations including RS232 and RS485. The relay includes a faceplate (front panel) RS232 port and two rear ter-
minal communications ports that may be configured as RS485, fiber optic, 10BaseT, or 10BaseF. Data flow is half-duplex in
all configurations. See Chapter 3 for details on wiring.
Each data byte is transmitted in an asynchronous format consisting of 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and possibly 1 parity
bit. This produces a 10 or 11 bit data frame. This can be important for transmission through modems at high bit rates (11 bit
data frames are not supported by many modems at baud rates greater than 300).
The baud rate and parity are independently programmable for each communications port. Baud rates of 300, 1200, 2400,
4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800, 33600, 38400, 57600, or 115200 bps are available. Even, odd, and no parity are avail-
able. Refer to the Communications section of Chapter 5 for further details.
The master device in any system must know the address of the slave device with which it is to communicate. The relay will
not act on a request from a master if the address in the request does not match the relay’s slave address (unless the
address is the broadcast address – see below).
A single setting selects the slave address used for all ports, with the exception that for the faceplate port, the relay will
accept any address when the Modbus® RTU protocol is used.
Communications takes place in packets which are groups of asynchronously framed byte data. The master transmits a
packet to the slave and the slave responds with a packet. The end of a packet is marked by ‘dead-time’ on the communica-
tions line. The following describes general format for both transmit and receive packets. For exact details on packet format-
ting, refer to subsequent sections describing each function code.
• SLAVE ADDRESS: This is the address of the slave device that is intended to receive the packet sent by the master
and to perform the desired action. Each slave device on a communications bus must have a unique address to prevent
bus contention. All of the relay’s ports have the same address which is programmable from 1 to 254; see Chapter 5 for
details. Only the addressed slave will respond to a packet that starts with its address. Note that the faceplate port is an
exception to this rule; it will act on a message containing any slave address.
A master transmit packet with slave address 0 indicates a broadcast command. All slaves on the communication link
take action based on the packet, but none respond to the master. Broadcast mode is only recognized when associated
with Function Code 05h. For any other function code, a packet with broadcast mode slave address 0 will be ignored.
• FUNCTION CODE: This is one of the supported functions codes of the unit which tells the slave what action to per-
form. See the Supported Function Codes section for complete details. An exception response from the slave is indi-
cated by setting the high order bit of the function code in the response packet. See the Exception Responses section
for further details.
• DATA: This will be a variable number of bytes depending on the function code. This may include actual values, set-
tings, or addresses sent by the master to the slave or by the slave to the master.
• CRC: This is a two byte error checking code. The RTU version of Modbus® includes a 16-bit cyclic redundancy check
B (CRC-16) with every packet which is an industry standard method used for error detection. If a Modbus slave device
receives a packet in which an error is indicated by the CRC, the slave device will not act upon or respond to the packet
thus preventing any erroneous operations. See the CRC-16 Algorithm section for details on calculating the CRC.
• DEAD TIME: A packet is terminated when no data is received for a period of 3.5 byte transmission times (about 15 ms
at 2400 bps, 2 ms at 19200 bps, and 300 µs at 115200 bps). Consequently, the transmitting device must not allow gaps
between bytes longer than this interval. Once the dead time has expired without a new byte transmission, all slaves
start listening for a new packet from the master except for the addressed slave.
The CRC-16 algorithm essentially treats the entire data stream (data bits only; start, stop and parity ignored) as one contin-
uous binary number. This number is first shifted left 16 bits and then divided by a characteristic polynomial
(11000000000000101B). The 16 bit remainder of the division is appended to the end of the packet, MSByte first. The
resulting packet including CRC, when divided by the same polynomial at the receiver will give a zero remainder if no trans-
mission errors have occurred. This algorithm requires the characteristic polynomial to be reverse bit ordered. The most sig-
nificant bit of the characteristic polynomial is dropped, since it does not affect the value of the remainder.
A C programming language implementation of the CRC algorithm will be provided upon request.
Modbus® officially defines function codes from 1 to 127 though only a small subset is generally needed. The relay supports
some of these functions, as summarized in the following table. Subsequent sections describe each function code in detail.
This function code allows the master to read one or more consecutive data registers (actual values or settings) from a relay.
Data registers are always 16 bit (two byte) values transmitted with high order byte first. The maximum number of registers
that can be read in a single packet is 125. See the Modbus Memory Map table for exact details on the data registers.
Since some PLC implementations of Modbus® only support one of function codes 03h and 04h, the relay interpretation
allows either function code to be used for reading one or more consecutive data registers. The data starting address will
determine the type of data being read. Function codes 03h and 04h are therefore identical.
The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows a master device requesting 3
register values starting at address 4050h from slave device 11h (17 decimal); the slave device responds with the values 40,
300, and 0 from registers 4050h, 4051h, and 4052h, respectively.
This function code allows the master to perform various operations in the relay. Available operations are shown in the Sum-
mary of Operation Codes table below.
The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows a master device requesting the
slave device 11H (17 dec) to perform a reset. The high and low Code Value bytes always have the values “FF” and “00”
respectively and are a remnant of the original Modbus® definition of this function code.

This function code allows the master to modify the contents of a single setting register in an relay. Setting registers are
always 16 bit (two byte) values transmitted high order byte first. The following table shows the format of the master and
slave packets. The example shows a master device storing the value 200 at memory map address 4051h to slave device
11h (17 dec).
This function code allows the master to modify the contents of a one or more consecutive setting registers in a relay. Setting
registers are 16-bit (two byte) values transmitted high order byte first. The maximum number of setting registers that can be
stored in a single packet is 60. The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows
a master device storing the value 200 at memory map address 4051h, and the value 1 at memory map address 4052h to
slave device 11h (17 decimal).

Programming or operation errors usually happen because of illegal data in a packet. These errors result in an exception
response from the slave. The slave detecting one of these errors sends a response packet to the master with the high order
bit of the function code set to 1.
The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows a master device sending the
unsupported function code 39h to slave device 11.
a) DESCRIPTION
The UR relay has a generic file transfer facility, meaning that you use the same method to obtain all of the different types of
files from the unit. The Modbus registers that implement file transfer are found in the "Modbus File Transfer (Read/Write)"
and "Modbus File Transfer (Read Only)" modules, starting at address 3100 in the Modbus Memory Map. To read a file from
the UR relay, use the following steps:
B 1. Write the filename to the "Name of file to read" register using a write multiple registers command. If the name is shorter
than 80 characters, you may write only enough registers to include all the text of the filename. Filenames are not case
sensitive.
2. Repeatedly read all the registers in "Modbus File Transfer (Read Only)" using a read multiple registers command. It is
not necessary to read the entire data block, since the UR relay will remember which was the last register you read. The
"position" register is initially zero and thereafter indicates how many bytes (2 times the number of registers) you have
read so far. The "size of..." register indicates the number of bytes of data remaining to read, to a maximum of 244.
3. Keep reading until the "size of..." register is smaller than the number of bytes you are transferring. This condition indi-
cates end of file. Discard any bytes you have read beyond the indicated block size.
4. If you need to re-try a block, read only the "size of.." and "block of data", without reading the position. The file pointer is
only incremented when you read the position register, so the same data block will be returned as was read in the pre-
vious operation. On the next read, check to see if the position is where you expect it to be, and discard the previous
block if it is not (this condition would indicate that the UR relay did not process your original read request).
The UR relay retains connection-specific file transfer information, so files may be read simultaneously on multiple Modbus
connections.
b) OTHER PROTOCOLS
All the files available via Modbus may also be retrieved using the standard file transfer mechanisms in other protocols (for
example, TFTP or MMS).
The COMMAND password is set up at memory location 4000. Storing a value of “0” removes COMMAND password protec-
tion. When reading the password setting, the encrypted value (zero if no password is set) is returned. COMMAND security
is required to change the COMMAND password. Similarly, the SETTING password is set up at memory location 4002.
These are the same settings and encrypted values found in the SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" PASSWORD SECURITY
menu via the keypad. Enabling password security for the faceplate display will also enable it for Modbus, and vice-versa.
To gain COMMAND level security access, the COMMAND password must be entered at memory location 4008. To gain
SETTING level security access, the SETTING password must be entered at memory location 400A. The entered SETTING
password must match the current SETTING password setting, or must be zero, to change settings or download firmware.
COMMAND and SETTING passwords each have a 30-minute timer. Each timer starts when you enter the particular pass-
word, and is re-started whenever you “use” it. For example, writing a setting re-starts the SETTING password timer and
writing a command register or forcing a coil re-starts the COMMAND password timer. The value read at memory location
4010 can be used to confirm whether a COMMAND password is enabled or disabled (0 for Disabled). The value read at
memory location 4011 can be used to confirm whether a SETTING password is enabled or disabled.
COMMAND or SETTING password security access is restricted to the particular port or particular TCP/IP connection on
which the entry was made. Passwords must be entered when accessing the relay through other ports or connections, and
the passwords must be re-entered after disconnecting and re-connecting on TCP/IP.

UR_UINT16 FLEXCURVE DATA (120 points)
A FlexCurve is an array of 120 consecutive data points (x, y) which
F070
are interpolated to generate a smooth curve. The y-axis is the user
HEX2 2 BYTES - 4 ASCII DIGITS
defined trip or operation time setting; the x-axis is the pickup ratio
and is pre-defined. Refer to format F119 for a listing of the pickup
ratios; the enumeration value for the pickup ratio indicates the off-
F071

Example: Current values are stored as 32 bit numbers with three
decimal places and base units in Amps. If the retrieved value is
F074
12345.678 A and the display scale equals 0x0302 then the dis-
HEX20 20 BYTES - 40 ASCII DIGITS

The Utility Communications Architecture (UCA) Version 2 represents an attempt by utilities and vendors of electronic
equipment to produce standardized communications systems. There is a set of reference documents available from the
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and vendors of UCA/MMS software libraries that describe the complete capabili-
ties of the UCA. Following, is a description of the subset of UCA/MMS features that are supported by the UR relay. The ref-
erence document set includes:
• Introduction to UCA version 2
• Generic Object Models for Substation and Feeder Equipment (GOMSFE)
• Common Application Service Models (CASM) and Mapping to MMS
• UCA Version 2 Profiles
These documents can be obtained from the UCA User’s Group at http://www.ucausersgroup.org. It is strongly recom-
mended that all those involved with any UCA implementation obtain this document set.
C
COMMUNICATION PROFILES:
The UCA specifies a number of possibilities for communicating with electronic devices based on the OSI Reference Model.
The UR relay uses the seven layer OSI stack (TP4/CLNP and TCP/IP profiles). Refer to the "UCA Version 2 Profiles" refer-
ence document for details.
The TP4/CLNP profile requires the UR relay to have a network address or Network Service Access Point (NSAP) in order
to establish a communication link. The TCP/IP profile requires the UR relay to have an IP address in order to establish a
communication link. These addresses are set in the SETTINGS ! PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !" NETWORK
menu. Note that the UR relay supports UCA operation over the TP4/CLNP or the TCP/IP stacks and also supports opera-
tion over both stacks simultaneously. It is possible to have up to two simultaneous connections. This is in addition to DNP
and Modbus/TCP (non-UCA) connections.
C.1.2 MMS
a) DESCRIPTION
The UCA specifies the use of the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) at the upper (Application) layer for trans-
fer of real-time data. This protocol has been in existence for a number of years and provides a set of services suitable for
the transfer of data within a substation LAN environment. Data can be grouped to form objects and be mapped to MMS ser-
vices. Refer to the “GOMSFE” and “CASM” reference documents for details.
SUPPORTED OBJECTS:
The "GOMSFE" document describes a number of communication objects. Within these objects are items, some of which
are mandatory and some of which are optional, depending on the implementation. The UR relay supports the following
GOMSFE objects:
• DI (device identity) • PHIZ (high impedance ground detector)
• GCTL (generic control) • PIOC (instantaneous overcurrent relay)
• GIND (generic indicator) • POVR (overvoltage relay)
• GLOBE (global data) • PTOC (time overcurrent relay)
• MMXU (polyphase measurement unit) • PUVR (under voltage relay)
• PBRL (phase balance current relay) • PVPH (volts per hertz relay)
• PBRO (basic relay object) • ctRATO (CT ratio information)
• PDIF (differential relay) • vtRATO (VT ratio information)
• PDIS (distance) • RREC (reclosing relay)
• PDOC (directional overcurrent) • RSYN (synchronizing or synchronism-check relay)
• PDPR (directional power relay) • XCBR (circuit breaker)
• PFRQ (frequency relay)
PEER-TO-PEER COMMUNICATION:
Peer-to-peer communication of digital state information, using the UCA GOOSE data object, is supported via the use of the
UR Remote Inputs/Outputs feature. This feature allows digital points to be transferred between any UCA conforming
devices.
FILE SERVICES:
MMS file services are supported to allow transfer of Oscillography, Event Record, or other files from a UR relay.
COMMUNICATION SOFTWARE UTILITIES:
The exact structure and values of the implemented objects can be seen by connecting to a UR relay with an MMS browser,
such as the “MMS Object Explorer and AXS4-MMS DDE/OPC” server from Sisco Inc.
NON-UCA DATA:
C The UR relay makes available a number of non-UCA data items. These data items can be accessed through the "UR" MMS
domain. UCA data can be accessed through the "UCADevice" MMS domain.
NOTE GCTL1 = Virtual Inputs (32 total points – SI1 to SI32); includes SBO functionality.
NOTE 1 MMXU per Source (as determined from the ‘product order code’)
The following GOMSFE objects are defined by the object model described via the above table:
C
• PBRO (basic relay object)
• PDIF (differential relay)
• PDIS (distance)
• PDOC (directional overcurrent)
• PDPR (directional power relay)
• PFRQ (frequency relay)
• PHIZ (high impedance ground detector)
• PIOC (instantaneous overcurrent relay)
• POVR (over voltage relay)
• PTOC (time overcurrent relay)
• PUVR (under voltage relay)
• RSYN (synchronizing or synchronism-check relay)
• POVR (overvoltage)
• PVPH (volts per hertz relay)
• PBRL (phase balance current relay)
Actual instantiation of these objects is determined by the number of the corresponding elements present in the C60
as per the ‘product order code’.
NOTE
NOTE 1 ctRATO per Source (as determined from the product order code).
1 vtRATO per Source (as determined from the product order code).
Actual instantiation of RREC objects is determined by the number of autoreclose elements present in the C60 as
per the product order code.
NOTE
Also note that the Shots class data (i.e. Tmr1, Tmr2, Tmr3, Tmr4, RsTmr) is specified to be of type INT16S (16 bit
signed integer); this data type is not large enough to properly display the full range of these settings from the C60.
Numbers larger than 32768 will be displayed incorrectly.
Actual instantiation of XCBR objects is determined by the number of breaker control elements present in the C60 as
per the product order code.
NOTE
A built-in TCP/IP connection timeout of two minutes is employed by the UR to detect "dead" connections. If there is no data
traffic on a TCP connection for greater than two minutes, the connection will be aborted by the UR. This frees up the con-
nection to be used by other clients. Therefore, when using UCA reporting, clients should configure BasRCB objects such
that an integrity report will be issued at least every 2 minutes (120000 ms). This ensures that the UR will not abort the con-
nection. If other MMS data is being polled on the same connection at least once every 2 minutes, this timeout will not apply.

Explanation of ‘Sometimes’: Object 12 points are mapped to UR Virtual Inputs. The persistence of Virtual Inputs is
determined by the VIRTUAL INPUT X TYPE settings. Both “Pulse On” and “Latch On” operations perform the same func-
tion in the UR; that is, the appropriate Virtual Input is put into the “On” state. If the Virtual Input is set to “Self-Reset”,
it will reset after one pass of FlexLogic™. The On/Off times and Count value are ignored. “Pulse Off” and “Latch Off”
operations put the appropriate Virtual Input into the “Off” state. “Trip” and “Close” operations both put the appropriate
Virtual Input into the “On” state.

The following table identifies the variations, function codes, and qualifiers supported by the UR in both request messages
and in response messages. For static (non-change-event) objects, requests sent with qualifiers 00, 01, 06, 07, or 08, will be
responded with qualifiers 00 or 01. Static object requests sent with qualifiers 17 or 28 will be responded with qualifiers 17 or
28. For change-event objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are always responded.

E.2.3 COUNTERS
The following table lists both Binary Counters (Object 20) and Frozen Counters (Object 21). When a freeze function is per-
formed on a Binary Counter point, the frozen value is available in the corresponding Frozen Counter point.
BINARY COUNTERS
Static (Steady-State) Object Number: 20
Change Event Object Number: 22
Request Function Codes supported: 1 (read), 7 (freeze), 8 (freeze noack), 9 (freeze and clear),
10 (freeze and clear, noack), 22 (assign class)
Static Variation reported when variation 0 requested: 1 (32-Bit Binary Counter with Flag)
Change Event Variation reported when variation 0 requested: 1 (32-Bit Counter Change Event without time)
Change Event Buffer Size: 10
Default Class for all points: 2
FROZEN COUNTERS
Static (Steady-State) Object Number: 21
Change Event Object Number: 23
Request Function Codes supported: 1 (read)
Static Variation reported when variation 0 requested: 1 (32-Bit Frozen Counter with Flag)
E Change Event Variation reported when variation 0 requested: 1 (32-Bit Frozen Counter Event without time)
Change Event Buffer Size: 10
Default Class for all points: 2
A counter freeze command has no meaning for counters 8 and 9. C60 Digital Counter values are represented as 32-bit
integers. The DNP 3.0 protocol defines counters to be unsigned integers. Care should be taken when interpreting negative
counter values.
The following table lists Analog Inputs (Object 30). It is important to note that 16-bit and 32-bit variations of analog inputs
are transmitted through DNP as signed numbers. Even for analog input points that are not valid as negative values, the
maximum positive representation is 32767 for 16-bit values and 2147483647 for 32-bit values. This is a DNP requirement.
The deadbands for all Analog Input points are in the same units as the Analog Input quantity. For example, an Analog Input
quantity measured in volts has a corresponding deadband in units of volts. This is in conformance with DNP Technical Bul-
letin 9809-001 Analog Input Reporting Deadband. Relay settings are available to set default deadband values according to
data type. Deadbands for individual Analog Input Points can be set using DNP Object 34.
When using the C60 in DNP systems with limited memory, the Analog Input Points below may be replaced with a user-
definable list. This user-definable list uses the same settings as the Modbus User Map and can be configured with the Mod-
bus User Map settings. When used with DNP, each entry in the Modbus User Map represents the starting Modbus address
of a data item available as a DNP Analog Input point. To enable use of the Modbus User Map for DNP Analog Input points,
set the USER MAP FOR DNP ANALOGS setting to Enabled (this setting is in the PRODUCT SETUP !" COMMUNICATIONS !"
DNP PROTOCOL menu). The new DNP Analog points list can be checked via the “DNP Analog Input Points List” webpage,
accessible from the “Device Information menu” webpage.
After changing the USER MAP FOR DNP ANALOGS setting, the relay must be powered off and then back on for the set-
ting to take effect.
NOTE
Only Source 1 data points are shown in the following table. If the NUMBER OF SOURCES IN ANALOG LIST setting is increased,
data points for subsequent sources will be added to the list immediately following the Source 1 data points.
Units for Analog Input points are as follows:
• Current: A (amps) • Frequency: Hz (hertz)
• Voltage: V (volts) • Angle: degrees
E
• Real Power: W (watts) • Ohm Input: ohms
• Reactive Power: var (vars) • RTD Input: °C (degrees Celsius)
• Apparent Power: VA (volt-amps)
• Energy Wh, varh (watt-hours, var-hours)
