• GE EnerVista™ DVD (includes the EnerVista UR Setup software and manuals in PDF format) • Mounting screws If there is any noticeable physical damage, or any of the contents listed are missing, contact GE Grid Solutions as fol- lows.
Page 13: Ur Overview
1.2UR OVERVIEW 1.2.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE UR The GE Universal Relay (UR) series is a new generation of digital, modular, and multifunction equipment that is easily incorporated into automation systems, at both the station and enterprise levels. 1.2.2 HARDWARE ARCHITECTURE...
Page 14: Software Architecture
Employing OOD/OOP in the software architecture of the C70 achieves the same features as the hardware architecture: modularity, scalability, and flexibility. The application software for any UR-series device (for example, feeder protection, transformer protection, distance protection) is constructed by combining objects from the various functional classes.

This device (catalog number F485) connects to the computer using a straight-through serial cable. A shielded twisted-pair (20, 22, or 24 AWG) connects the F485 converter to the C70 rear communications port. The converter terminals (+, –, GND) are connected to the C70 communication module (+, –, COM) terminals. See the CPU Communica- tion Ports section in chapter 3 for details.

Page 31: Product Description
Ethernet port supports IEC 61850, Modbus/TCP, and TFTP protocols, PTP (according to IEEE Std. 1588-2008 or IEC 61588), and allows access to the relay via any standard web browser (C70 web pages). The IEC 60870-5-104 protocol is supported on the Ethernet port. The Ethernet port also supports the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) of IEC 62439-3 (clause 4, 2012) when purchased as an option.

Test mode operation The C70 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.
Page 34 When entering a settings or command password via EnerVista or any serial interface, the user must enter the correspond- ing connection password. If the connection is to the back of the C70, the remote password must be used. If the connection is to the RS232 port of the faceplate, the local password applies.

When a settings file is transferred to a C70 device, the date, time, and serial number of the C70 are sent back to EnerVista UR Setup and added to the settings file on the local PC. This infor- mation can be compared with the C70 actual values at any later date to determine if security has been compromised.
Page 106 4 HUMAN INTERFACES The transfer date of a setting file written to a C70 is logged in the relay and can be viewed via EnerVista UR Setup or the front panel display. Likewise, the transfer date of a setting file saved to a local PC is logged in EnerVista UR Setup.

In many cases the application monitors the state of the breaker, that 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.

Selected records can be cleared from user-programmable conditions with FlexLogic operands. Assigning user-programma- ble pushbuttons to clear specific records are typical applications for these commands. Since the C70 responds to rising edges of the configured FlexLogic operands, they must be asserted for at least 50 ms to take effect.
Page 151 ETHERNET NETWORK TOPOLOGY The C70 has three Ethernet ports. Each Ethernet port must belong to a different network or subnetwork. Configure the IP address and subnet to ensure that each port meets this requirement. Two subnets are different when the bitwise AND oper- ation performed between their respective IP address and mask produces a different result.
Page 152 In this configuration, P3 uses the IP and MAC address of P2.

To obtain a list of all port numbers used, for example for audit purposes, contact GE technical support with substantiating information, such as the serial number and order code of your device.
Page 154 2 is performed. The delay in switching back ensures that rebooted switching devices connected to the C70, which signal their ports as active prior to being completely functional, have time to completely initialize themselves and become active. Once port 2 is active again, port 3 returns to standby mode.

Page 165 The C70 supports the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) protocol as specified by IEC 61850. MMS is supported over two protocol stacks: TCP/IP over Ethernet. The C70 operates as an IEC 61850 server. The Remote Inputs and Out- puts section in this chapter describe the peer-to-peer GSSE/GOOSE message scheme.
Page 166 IEC 61850 GSSE application ID name string sent as part of each GSSE message. This GSSE ID string identifies the GSSE message to the receiving device. In C70 releases previous to 5.0x, this name string was repre- sented by the setting.
Page 167 DESTINATION MAC address; the least significant bit of the first byte must be set. In C70 releases previous to 5.0x, the destination Ethernet MAC address was determined automatically by taking the sending MAC address (that is, the unique, local MAC address of the C70) and setting the multicast bit.
Page 168 The C70 has the ability of detecting if a data item in one of the GOOSE datasets is erroneously oscillating. This can be caused by events such as errors in logic programming, inputs improperly being asserted and de-asserted, or failed station components.

Page 175 The GGIO2 control configuration settings are used to set the control model for each input. The available choices are “0” (status only), “1” (direct control), and “2” (SBO with normal security). The GGIO2 control points are used to control the C70 virtual inputs.
Page 176 GGIO1 (binary status values). The settings allow the selection of FlexInteger values for each GGIO5 integer value point. It is intended that clients use GGIO5 to access generic integer values from the C70. Additional settings are provided to allow the selection of the number of integer values available in GGIO5 (1 to 16), and to assign FlexInteger values to the GGIO5 integer inputs.

Page 191 The C70 supports the Simple Network Time Protocol specified in RFC-2030. With SNTP, the C70 can obtain clock time over an Ethernet network. The C70 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.
Page 192 C70 clock is closely synchronized with the SNTP/NTP server. It takes up to two minutes for the C70 to signal an SNTP self-test error if the server is offline.

Capacitor unbalance protection is provided in many different ways, depending on the capacitor bank arrangement. The variety of unbalance protection schemes that may be applied with C70 for internally fused, externally fused, fuseless, or unfused shunt capacitor banks is indicated in Theory of operation chapter and is illustrated on the figures below.

To avoid nuisance tripping during transient overvoltage conditions, in some cases, tripping is delayed by a timer. The C70 relay provides inverse time overvoltage characteristics required to decrease tripping time for large overvoltages.
