However, the technical manuals are very comprehensive due to the innumerable features of MiCOM 30 Series devices. Beginners may have a hard time with learning how to operate a device. The present documentation is intended to help those users get started. The intension is to accompany the user by learning basic operating procedures and enabling him to continue oneself. 2 How to Use The concept of this documentation is to learn step by step, i.e. each exercise requires that the previous exercise has been carried out successfully. So please dont jump! Start at the beginning. The number of pages is 20 only. Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 4 3 Local Control Panel 3.1 Basics MiCOM 30 Series devices incorporate a comprehensive package of individual functions in order to permit an extensive and universal scope of application. This results in a huge number of data points (setting vales, signals, measured values, etc.) which are arranged in two ways: Function groups: All data points are grouped in function groups according to the function they are associated with. Folders: All data points are also organized in different folders based on practical control requirements. The description of all data points in their entirety is called data model which is structured in the way of a menu tree. The menu tree begins with the device type at the top and then branches out below into the three main folders entitled 'Parameters', 'Operation', and 'Events', which form the first folder level. Below the first folder level are two more folder levels, so that the entire folder structure consists of three main branches and a maximum of three folder levels. At the bottom of each branch of folders, below the folder levels, are the various function groups in which the individual data points are combined. Two different types of function groups are provided: Global functions: Functions operating globally allow the adaptation of the devices interfaces to the protected power system, offer support during commissioning and testing and provide continuously updated information on the operation, as well as valuable analysis results following events in the protected system. Main functions: Main functions are autonomous function groups and can be individually configured or disabled to suit a particular application. Function groups that are not required and have been disabled by the user are masked completely (except for the configuration parameter) and functional support is withdrawn from such groups. 5 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc MiCOM Px3x MiCOM Px3x Parameters MiCOM Px3x Operation MiCOM Px3x Events Oper/ Cyclic measurements Oper/Cycl/ Meas. operating data Oper/Cycl/Data/ MAIN Folder plane 1 Folder plane 2 Folder plane 3 Function groups Data points Oper/Cycl/Data/MAIN Date 01.01.99 dd.mm.yy Unit type Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 6 3.2 Selecting Parameters All data points (setting values, signals, measured values, etc.) are selected using the menu tree. As the user navigates through the menu tree, the first two lines of the LCD display always show the branch of the menu tree that is active, as selected by the user. The data points are accessed at the lowest level of a menu tree branch. They are displayed with their plain text description. The value associated with the selected data point, its meaning, and its unit of measurement are displayed in the line below. The desired parameter (e.g. MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Config.paramters / LOC / Decimal delimiter) can be selected by pressing the keys Left, Right, Up and Down: MiCOM Px3x MiCOM Px3x Parameters Par/ Device ID Par/ Config.parameters Par/Conf/ LOC Par/Conf/LOC Language (tongue) English Par/Conf/LOC Decimal delimiter dot Note: In the case that the Panel level is displayed please press the ENTER key first in order to access the menu tree. 7 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 3.3 Changing Parameters Although it is possible to select any data point in the menu tree and read the associated value by pressing the keys, it is not possible to switch directly to the input mode. This safeguard prevents unintended changes in the settings. For that prior to any parameter change password has to be entered. Changing a parameter (e.g. MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Config.paramters / LOC / Decimal delimiter): Par/Conf/LOC Decimal delimiter Dot Par/Conf/LOC Decimal delimiter Dot ******** Par/Conf/LOC Decimal delimiter Dot Par/Conf/LOC Decimal delimiter Comma Par/Konf/VOB Decimal delimiter Comma Enter the password and confirm Enter the input mode Change the parameter value Leave the input mode by accepting the change Note: Input mode can be left without changing a parameter by pressing the CLEAR key instead of the ENTER key. Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 8 3.4 Cold Restart Many problems may occur due to the fact that the setting status of the device is difficult for the user to see whats going on. Regarding these problems its recommended to intialize a cold restart in order to put the device in its default status. Prior to initializing a cold restart please ensure that the device is disabled (MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Functionparamters / Global / MAIN / Protection enabled): Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Protection enabled No (=off) In case the device is disabled a cold restart can be initialized (MiCOM Px3x / Operation / Control and Testing / MAIN / Cold restart): Oper/CrtlTest/MAIN Cold restart don't execute Please change the value to execute by the procedure described in chapter 3.3: Oper/CrtlTest/MAIN Cold restart execute and press the ENTER key. The device will reboot: ******************** **** REBOOT ***** ******************** ******************** TEST >>>>>>>> Note: After a cold restart any special setting has been deleted and all records have been cleared. All parameters are set to their default value. 9 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 3.5 LED ALARM After the reboot of the device the ALARM LED is on due to a deliberate distortion of the parameter checksum which initializes the desired cold restart automatically. Please readout the corresponding entries in the monitoring signal memory (MiCOM Px3x / Operation / Operating data rec. / MT_RC / Mon. signal record.): Mon. signal record. 01.01.97 08:43 SFMON Checksum error param Oper/Rec/MT_RC Mon. signal record.
Mon. signal record. 01.01.97 08:43 SFMON Cold restart For detailed information concerning ALARM LED please refer to chapter 10 Troubleshooting of the corresponding manual. In order to switch off the ALARM LED please clear the monitoring signal memory (MiCOM Px3x / Operation / Control and Testing / MT_RC / Reset recording): Oper/CrtlTest/MT_RC Reset recording 2 Please enter the input mode, change the value to execute by the procedure described in chapter 3.3: Oper/CrtlTest/MT_RC Reset recording 2 execute and press the ENTER key. The number of entries in the monitoring signal memory will be 0 now and the ALARM LED will go off: Oper/CrtlTest/MT_RC Reset recording 0 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 10 3.6 LED OUT Of SERVICE After the reboot of the device the OUT OF SERVICE LED is on. In order to switch off the OUT OF SERVICE LED please enable the device by changing the value of the corresponding parameter by the procedure described in chapter 0: Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Protection enabled Yes (=on) Note: Status on of OUT OF SERVICE LED may occur due to different reasons. At least on of the following 3 parameters are not set as follows: Output relays may not be blocked: Par/Func/Glob/OUTP Outp.rel.block USER No Device must be enabled generally as described above: Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Protection enabled Yes (=on) Trip command(s) may not be blocked: Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Trip cmd.block. USER No Status on of OUT OF SERVICE LED may occur as well since the self-monitoring function has detected an internal fault of the device. In that case the ALARM LED is on too. Please readout the corresponding entries in the monitoring signal memory as described in chapter 3.5. For detailed information concerning ALARM LED please refer to chapter 10 Troubleshooting of the corresponding manual. 11 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 3.7 Configuring and Enabling of Function Groups After the reboot of the device the function groups of all main functions (such as IDMT, DIST, DIFF, ) are disabled. In order to enable a function group (e.g. DIFF: Differential Protection) the desired function group has to be configured first. Please select the corresponding configuration parameter and change it accordingly by the procedures described in chapters 3.2 and 3.3 (e.g. MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Config.paramters / DIFF / Function group DIFF): Par/Conf/DIFF Function group DIFF With Having configured the desired function group all related parameters and signals are displayed. Now enabling of the function group is possible. Please select the corresponding function parameter and change it accordingly by the procedures described in chapters 3.2 and 3.3 (e.g. MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Function paramters / General functions / DIFF / General enable USER): Par/Func/Gen/DIFF General enable USER Yes Having enabled the desired function group generally the setting of the active parameter subset determines whether the corresponding function is actually enabled or not. For the following example differential protection will be enabled only if parameter subset 1 is actually active (MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Function paramters / Parameter subset 1 / DIFF / Enable ): Par/Func/PS1/DIFF Enable PS1 Yes Par/Func/PS1/DIFF Enable PS2 No Par/Func/PS1/DIFF Enable PS3 No Par/Func/PS1/DIFF Enable PS4 No Note: The parameter subset actually active at a particular time may be determined by scanning the corresponding logic state signal (MiCOM Px3x / Operation / Cyclic measurements / Log. state signals / PSS / Actual param. subset). Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 12 3.8 Tripping Matrix and Configuration of Output Relays Its important to know that the trip signals of the various protection functions are not suitable for trip command purposes due to their undefined timing. Note: Never use a trip signal to operate the circuit breaker directly! Always use a trip command! For command purposes MiCOM 30 Series devices provide at least 2 trip commands. The functions to effect a trip can be selected by setting an 'm out of n' parameter independently for each of them (e.g. MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Function parameters / Global / MAIN / Fct.assig.trip cmd.1): Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Fct.assig.trip cmd.1
For example the following 2 trip signals are assigned to trip command 1: Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Fct.assig.trip cmd.1 #01 DIFF Trip signal Par/Func/Glob/MAIN Fct.assig.trip cmd.1 OR #02 MAIN Manual trip signal Having assigned the trip command the corresponding signal may be assigned to the desired output relay. We recommend to use output relay 01 on the power supply module which provides 2 N/O contacts (MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Config. parameters / OUTP / Fct. assignm. K 2001): Par/Conf/OUTP Fct. assignm. K 2001 MAIN Gen. trip command 1 Furthermore we recommend to use output relay 08 on the power supply module as watchdog contact (MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Config. parameters / OUTP / Fct. assignm. K 2008): Par/Conf/OUTP Fct. assignm. K 2008 MAIN Blocked/faulty Par/Conf/OUTP Oper. mode K 2008 NE updating This output relay provides a C/O contact. The operation mode (MiCOM Px3x / Parameters / Config. parameters / OUTP / Oper. mode K 2008) has to be set as NE updating. 13 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 4 Operating Program MiCOM 30 Series devices can be operated via module S&R-103 of MiCOM S1 suite. For this please connect a serial port of your PC to the front port of the MiCOM 30 Series device via a standard serial PC connection lead and start S&R-103 on your PC. 4.1 Checking Communication Settings Prior to start communicating with the device please open the dialog box Communication Settings (Communication / Communication Settings...): Check the following settings: Link Type: Ensure that Link Type Direct is selected. Serial Interface: Ensure that the corresponding Serial Interface of your PC is selected. Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 14 4.2 Identification of the Device In order to check whether communication with the device will work or not please open the dialog box Identify Device (Communication / Identify Device...): Please ensure that the settings of Baud Rate, Bay Address and Parity are equal to the settings of the device and that further configuration parameters are set as follows: Par/Conf/PC Name of manufacturer ALSTOM D Par/Conf/PC Bay address 1 Par/Conf/PC Device address 1 Par/Conf/PC Baud rate 19.2 kBaud Par/Conf/PC Parity bit Even Par/Conf/PC Spontan. sig. enable None Par/Conf/PC Transm.enab.cycl.dat Without Please click the button Identify.

S&R-103 will display always the maximum if the design version of the particular device is unknown. Therefore we recommend to readout the design version first before changing parameters. Assignments to inputs and outputs which are not available will be avoided. In order to readout the fitted modules please open the dialog box Design Version (Tools / Design Version) and click the button Update: Now S&R-103 starts in communication with the device: Note: In case the particular device is not handy the available inputs and outputs may be set manually. For this please click the button Definition. Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 18 4.5 Readout of the Setting In order to readout the settings please highlight the folder Parameters in the menu tree and click the corresponding icon in the toolbar (Communication / Read Value): Now S&R-103 starts in communication with the device: 19 Px3x GettingStarted EN a1.doc 5 Increasing your Experience Now you have the best opportunity to increase your experience on operating MiCOM 30 Series device by yourself: Configuration of Measured Value Panels: Configure the 'Operation Panel' (MiCOM Px3x / Config.parameters / LOC / Fct. Operation Panel) in order to display cyclic updated measurand values at the Local Control Panel automatically. Cyclic readout of values: Open the corresponding window (Communication / Cyclic Readout of Data), configure a set of data points (should be those values which are grouped in the folder Cyclic measurements of the menu tree) and start the cyclic readout. Operating data recording: Readout operating data memory (Communication / Readout of Log / Operating Data Recording). Fault recording and fault data acquisition: Trigger a fault record manually (MiCOM Px3x / Operating / Control and Testing / FT_RC / Trigger USER) and readout the fault record from fault memory (Communication / Readout of Fault).
