Relay protection experimentation. Master Slave Designation A T-GPS3000 can be designated as a Master or slave device. It is necessary to have a slave unit when a single GPS device does not have sufficient outputs to synchronise all the equipment in the substation, and there is a restriction in the number of antennas that can be set up.

The Power Module and Signal Input (Antenna) Module are mandatory.
• DCF77 Code: since this code is used rarely, it only is output from a Dry Contact. T-GPS has 7 blank modular spaces for the various optional modules. However, for power consumption reasons, the maximum number of TTL modules is limited to three, the maximum number of 422/485 is also three and IRIG-B has a maximum of four modules.
Module Descriptions Power Module The Power Module provides the power supply for the T-GPS3000, the layout is as the diagram below shows. A) ON/OFF: to power on or off the GPS. B) Fuse: 5A fuse is inside (Note: The unit should be powered off when replacing the fuse).
IRIG-B Signal Input I Module Each IRIG-B signal input module accepts two TTL and 422 switchable level signals. They can indicate whether they are connected and running normally. Both level signals are accessed through a DB9 socket. Pins 1 - 4 of the socket are connected to the first 422 level signal, 1 and 4 are connected to "+"...

4.19 PTP Signal Output Module Each PTP output can provide up to four PTP optical signals. Each signal requires two physical interfaces, one transmitting (TX) and one receiving (RX). The output interface is a multi-mode ST interface with a maximum transmission distance of 2Km. The PTP output signal can be connected directly to the PTP client or through a dedicated PTP switch.

The delay compensation of the "Delay Compensation Input Board" and "Delay Compensation Output Board" is set by Kehui’s "GPSDelayTimePanel.exe" software. The software sends the delay compensation value by sending a serial message to the delay compensation module. “Serial port settings" is shown below:...
Page 26
Click "Serial Port Configuration"-> "Open Serial Port", click "Advance Time" to enter the delay compensation value. The basic compensation unit is 100ns. For example, when the protection cell to be synchronised, is 500 meters away from the main control building, the "delay compensation input board"...
4.21 Delay Compensation Output Module Each delay compensation output modules provides 8 optical IRIG-B signals. The S2 code jump switch labelled "No Time Delay" on the printed board is used to set whether the output is compensated. When the S2 code jump switch is short- circuited (plug in a short-circuit), the output signal is not compensated.
Page 28
The "Delay Compensation Output Board" is also set through the "GPSDelayTimePanel.exe" software, but the serial port connection is a little more complicated. The serial line needs to be connected to the 19XS8 single-row pin on the printed board through the transfer line to set. The wiring diagram is shown in the figure below.

• Check that the labelling of the T-GPS3000 corresponds with the order. If there are any of the above issues at the point of delivery ensure Kehui is notified without delay. Installation T-GPS3000 is designed for installation in a standard 19-inch rack. It can be mounted alone or with other devices as shown here.
There is access for up to fourteen modules to provide various functionality within the device. Modules must be chosen when ordering, as the module positions will change depending on which modules are included. It should be noted that the inputs read from right to left on the rear of the unit (i.e., Input 1 is at the extreme right position).
6.3.3 Redundant Master and Slave Figure 6.5 Redundant Master and slave system Where the system requires a higher level of security, this scheme protects against the loss of the GPS signal at one of the antennae, or a hardware failure in a master unit. Connections are as in 6.3.2.

Another important consideration is safety; a lightning protection device (not supplied) should be mounted in close proximity to, and above, the antenna to prevent damage being caused by a lightning strike. As further protection, a surge protective device (SPD) is connected in series with the antenna cable is provided (see below): Figure 6.7 Surge protective device The SPD should be mounted directly on to the copper ground bar of the cabinet.
Antenna installation The following are some suggestions for the correct installation of the antenna. Figure 6.8 shows the correct and incorrect method of mounting. Figure 6.8: Antenna Mounting Location The T-GPS3000A should be mounted in a location where the signal is strongest and the antenna cable length is minimised.
Brightness Adjustment The third LED segment from the left is the Brightness Indicator, ‘0’ is the minimum and ‘F’ is the maximum brightness. When the T-GPS3000 is in working mode, pressing ‘‘and ‘+’ will adjust the brightness of the LED.
In running mode, pressing ‘ITEM’ and ‘ENTER’ together allows access to the set-up menu. The First LED position from the left gives the Menu option when the T-GPS3000 is under setting mode. Pressing the ‘Item’ button once will increase the value by one. The meaning of each menu option number is given in the following sections.

7.3.9 Setting of the Output Time Interval of TXD1 In certain applications there is a requirement for an additional serial port output TXD1, which may require a delayed output time. This is provided by menu option 14, which can be set as follows: Set the output time interval of the second TXD1.
If the Synchronisation Indication light blinks during running, this indicates that the T-GPS3000A is not synchronised, check the connection and the antenna as above. If the problem persists after completing the above, please contact Kehui (via info@kehui.com or your normal local contact)
8.3.1 Wrong Alarm This indicates that the T-GPS3000 has mal-operated. When the Wrong Alarm is activated, the operator should check whether the power indicator is on and if not, power on the instrument using the on-off switch at the rear of the power module. If this is unsuccessful, check the fuse and replace it if necessary.
