  • Page 13: Product Description

    This chapter outlines the product, order codes, and specifications. 2.1 Product description The C30 Controller System is part of the Universal Relay (UR) series of products. It is a microprocessor-based device designed for power substation control and monitoring. Diagnostic features include a sequence of records capable of storing 1024 time-tagged events. The internal clock used for time-tagging can be synchronized with an IRIG-B signal, using the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) over the Ethernet port, or using the Precision Time Protocol (PTP).

  • Page 14: Security

    The C30 supports password entry from a local or remote connection. Local access is defined as any access to settings or commands via the faceplate interface. This includes both keypad entry and the through the faceplate RS232 port. Remote access is defined as any access to settings or commands via any rear communications port.
