Device Planning Parameters
Improving the Usability (Clarity): All protection modules that are currently unused can be hidden (switched to
invisible) through Device Planning. In the Device Planning menu, the User can adapt the scope of functionality of
the protective device exactly as needed. The User can improve the usability by hiding all modules that are not
currently needed.
Adapting the device to the application: For those modules that are needed, determine how they should be set up
(e.g.: directional, non-directional, <, >...).
Direct Commands
Direct Commands are part of the "Device Parameter tree" but NOT part of the parameter file. They will be executed
directly (e.g.: Resetting of a Counter).
State of the Module Inputs
Module Inputs are part of the "Device Parameter tree". The State of the Module Input is context-dependent.
By means of the Module Inputs, information can be passed to and acted upon by the modules. The User can assign
signals to Module Inputs . The state of the signals that are assigned to an input can be viewed from the Status Display.
Module Inputs can be identified by an "-I" at the end of the name.
Signals
Signals are part of the "Device Parameter tree". The state of the signal is context-dependent.
Signals represent the state of the installation/equipment (e.g.: position indicators of the breaker).
Signals are assessments of the state of the grid and the equipment (System OK, Transformer failure detected, ...).
Signals represent decisions that are taken by the device (e.g.: Trip Command) based on the User parameter
settings.
