CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS CONTROL ELEMENTS
The scheme generates output operands (DUTT TX1 through TX4) that are used to transmit the direct under-reaching
DUTT
signals to the remote end(s). Choices of communications channel include remote inputs/outputs and telecommunications
interfaces. When used with telecommunications facilities, assign the output operands to operate output contacts
connected to assert the individual bits at the interface.
To make the scheme a fully operational stand-alone feature, the scheme output operands must be configured to interface
with other relay functions, output contacts in particular. Typically, you program the output operands to initiate a trip,
breaker fail, and autoreclose, and drive a user-programmable LED as per user application. When used in conjunction with
the trip output element, the scheme is pre-configured to initiate trip, breaker fail, and single-pole autoreclose actions.
— This setting allows the user to assign any FlexLogic operand to block the scheme. Contact inputs
DUTT SCHEME BLOCK
from a pilot cut-out switch are typically used for this purpose.
— The output FlexLogic operand (DUTT OP) is produced according to the DUTT scheme logic. A seal-in
DUTT SEAL-IN DELAY
time delay is applied to this operand for coping with noisy communication channels such as a power line carrier. The
DUTT
is a minimum guaranteed duration of the pulse. As this operand activates the Trip Table of the DUTT
SEAL-IN DELAY
DUTT OP
scheme, the trip operands A, B, C, and are sealed-in for the same period of time.
DUTT TRIP 3P
— This setting specifies the number of bits available on the communications channel. With only one
DUTT NO OF COMM BITS
bit available, the scheme sends the direct under-reaching transfer trip command on bit number 1 (DUTT TX1 operand) and
responds to the direct trip command received on bit number 1 (DUTT RX1 setting). The scheme uses only local fault type
identification provided by the Phase Selector to assert the output operands A, B, C, and 3P.
DUTT TRIP
through — These settings allow the user to select the FlexLogic operands that represent the receive
DUTT RX1 DUTT RX4
signals for the scheme. Typically input contacts interfacing with a signaling system are used.
The DUTT scheme requires a secure and dependable signaling system. For this reason, a series/parallel combination of
receive signal "contacts" is often used. This is accomplished by using a multi-bit communications system to transmit
redundant copies of the signal (often via different paths) and building appropriate security logic (such as series (AND
TX
5
gate) or 2-out-of-3 voting logic) with FlexLogic. The settings should be associated with the final (secure) TX
DUTT RX1(4)
signals.
