7.4 Conﬁguring Measurement Parameters 7.3.1 Additional Information on Ethernet Connections Setting up an Ethernet connection may require some additional diagnostics. Listed below are System tools that may provide assistance. Generally, if there is a connection problem, it will either be a hardware problem, such as a bad or unconnected cable, or a setup problem in either the PC or 1133A.

Conﬁguring the Model 1133A Conﬁgure Ports – Modbus Modbus is a serial communications protocol published by Modicon in 1979 for use with its programmable logic controllers (PLC’s), and is now the most commonly available means of connecting industrial electronic devices. To conﬁgure the 1133A to communication using Modbus protocol, you will need to conﬁgure the desired port to use it and then set some simple conﬁguration options.

7.8 Conﬁgure Ports – C37.118 Synchrophasor Protocol Conﬁgure Ports – C37.118 Synchrophasor Protocol Purpose and Background The purpose of this section is to provide speciﬁc details of how to conﬁgure the 1133A to respond correctly to C37.118 commands with synchrophasor data. PSCSV does not allow you to receive or record actual C37.118 data.

Chapter 8 Working with Triggers and Downloading Event Records Introduction to Triggers and Events Triggering in the Model 1133A allows you to capture and store transient conditions of any measured signal and DSP value for up to 32 separate triggers. Besides recording the exact time and date of a power-line disturbance, all of the measured data parameters may also be recorded.

Sliding means that Reference value is not ﬁxed (or absolute) and can change slowly, such as with a gradually rising or dropping voltage. See additional details on following pages. Hysteresis: Floating point value; reduces extraneous records from accumulating when a measured value is dithering around a limit or reference.
Page 103: Hysteresis Plot
8.3 Conﬁguring Power Quality Triggers Hysteresis Hysteresis allows the user to set up triggering conditions to reduce the tendency for a varying signal (e.g. voltage) to generate unnecessary triggers. The ﬁgure below illustrates a voltage varying around about 130 Vrms, which is the set Limit for a trigger. To avoid unwanted triggers occurring at points A, B, C and D, a hysteresis value of 2 was chosen.

11.23 Contact Outputs The 1133A must be conﬁgured in advance to specify the events being recognized and actions to be taken. To maximize usage of ﬂash memory, it is important to distinguish registered quantities from event log data. The amount of memory needed to record a certain number of registered items for a certain period can be determined exactly, whereas the amount of memory required to log events depends on the number and type of events, and the number of items to be recorded for each type.

Working with Ethernet Connections Setting an IP Address on the Computer In some situations, it may be better to set up the network values manually. Set the IP address manually if directly connecting the 1133A to the computer Ethernet card with a crossover cable or through a hub.
Page 173: B Using Surge Arresters
Using Surge Arresters Introduction These instructions cover the installation of the Arbiter Systems Model AS0094500, Surge Arrester/ Grounding Block. The AS0094500 performs two basic functions: 1. Provides a solid and reliable grounding point for the antenna system connected to a GNSS receiver;...

Using Surge Arresters Installation B.3.1 Mounting Location Location is a key consideration when installing the Model AS0094500. It should be mounted as close as possible to a good earth ground, such as a grounding rod or station ground grid. The shorter the path between the arrester and the earth ground, the more eﬀectively it will bypass the induced voltages.

Page 176: C Irig-B Primer
Appendix C IRIG-B Primer Introduction IRIG-B is a complete serial time code of 74 bits that occurs once per second. It be subdivided into various forms, including modulated (analog), unmodulated (CMOS/TTL/Level-Shift) and with the C37.118 speciﬁcation bits enabled or disabled (IEEE-1344 mode turned ON or OFF). The Model 1133A transmits only unmodulated IRIG-B, and allows you to also set the time zone to Local or UTC.
Page 177: Irig-B Type Codes
C.1 Introduction date, time changes and time quality information of the time signal. Timing information is divided into logic ones, zeros and reference bits. There are three functional groups of bits in the IRIG-B time code, in the following order: - Binary Coded Decimal (BCD), Control Function (CF) and Straight Binary Seconds (SBS).
Page 178: Connecting The Irig-B Output
IRIG-B Primer Connecting the IRIG-B Output The Model 1133A comes equipped with one, high drive, IRIG-B output connector using screw terminals. Terminal connectors are compatible with twisted pair cabling. If using a coaxial cable, you can easily transition from the two wires (coming from the back of the 1133A) to a BNC connector using a BNC Breakout.
Page 179: Connecting Unmodulated Irig-B
C.2 Connecting the IRIG-B Output C.2.4 Connecting Unmodulated IRIG-B To drive multiple loads from one clock timing output, make sure they are wired in parallel. Some call this “Daisy-Chaining”, however the idea is to drive all of these loads in parallel from the single output.
Page 180: Solutions
IRIG-B Primer Since electromagnetic waves travel slower through any cable, cable manufacturers normally specify cable with a velocity factor (VF), which is a fraction of the speed of light in free space, and characteristic of the speciﬁc cable. The Velocity Factor for the RG-6 cabling used by Arbiter Systems for GNSS antenna connections, is about 83% of C.

Page 183: E Vorne Output Values
Appendix E Vorne Output Values Introduction This section describes the Vorne serial output strings when selected from the Conﬁgure Ports menu. To conﬁgure the 1133A to broadcast the desired message via Vorne protocol, see Section 7.2.2. Vorne Protocol in Use Selecting the Vorne protocol from the conﬁgure ports menu conﬁgures either Communication Port 1 or 2 to broadcast data to support Vorne large format time displays.
Page 184 Vorne Output Values The decimal points shown above are not actually transmitted in the data stream, but their position is implied. The displays are conﬁgured to show the decimal point in this position. *Time Deviation is output in two formats in the same data stream: 33 s.ss and 34 sss.sss. Output for the 33 s.ss format will be +9.bb when the measured value exceeds +9.99 (b = blank).
Page 185 Introduction This section describes uploading new ﬁrmware into the Model 1133A. The Flash Update Application, called 1133A Uploader, and is available from the Arbiter Systems website at www.arbiter.com. Search under Downloads > Software and locate it under the product name 1133A.
Page 186 Uploading Firmware 4. From the 1133A Uploader menu, select Settings > Serial Port and choose the correct serial port number for your pc. If using a USB-to-Serial adapter choose the COM port number assigned to the adapter. 5. Select Settings > Baud Rate and choose the same baud rate as on the 1133A. Locate the 1133A Baud rate by pressing the Status/Time key (hold for three seconds to get second set).
