Switching The Simulation Mode On And Off; Switching Block Monitoring Direction On And Off - Siemens SIPROTEC 5 Manual

Depending on the device layout, not all test functions are always available. The execution of test functions
is protected by a confirmation ID.

Switching the Simulation Mode On and Off

10.5.2
Procedure
If the simulation mode is switched on, indications transmitted via communication interfaces are labeled with
an additional test bit, provided this is supported by the protocol. With this test bit, you can determine whether
an indication is generated in a test, and all or individual functions of the device are in simulation mode. In this
way, the reactions necessary in process mode due to an indication can be suppressed in other devices that
receive these indications.
•
If you have activated a confirmation ID or access control, these are requested by DIGSI 5 before the start
of simulation mode.
•
You can activate the simulation mode via DIGSI 5. All functions go into the test mode.
•
You can bring selected functions into the test state. DIGSI 5 offers test sequences for this purpose.
The test suite shows you all the protection functions in the device with the current states. The state of a
function is tested systematically there, using a test sequence. An activated simulation mode is marked
with a check mark in the menu item.

Switching Block Monitoring Direction On and Off

10.5.3
Procedure
If block monitoring direction is switched on, no indications are output via the system interface(s) of a
SIPROTEC 5 device. Block monitoring direction can be switched on or off depending on the current state.
•
Select block monitoring direction via the on-site operation panel.
•
Enter the confirmation ID so that block monitoring direction can be activated.
