MODEM COMMUNICATION TO ABB RELAYS

ATDT ,,,,18005551212 ( the substation number of the remote device)
To hang up the device the WIN ECP program must be able to send the command:
ATH0
Additionally, one must be sure that the appropriate modem configuration strings have been accepted by
the modem for correct handshake control and remote auto answer configuration.
Connectivity Example 2 – REL 3XX to RCP Configuration Software
If one wished to connect an ABB transmission relay such as a REL300 (MDAR), REL301, REL302,
REL350, REL352 or REL356 to its configuration software (RCP – Remote Communication Program),
using a dial up configuration as illustrated in Figure 20 is quite possible. The REL transmission relay
uses a PONI R card for direct point to point communication via a cable or a modem. Please reference
Instruction Leaflet 40-603 titled RCP Communication Program Users GUIDE and Instruction Leaflet 40-
610 titled RS-PONI RS232 Product Operated Network Interface User’s Guide.

Figure 20. RCP to REL350 Communication Topology Example
In this example, a REL350 shall be connected together with two US ROBOTIC Model 005686 Sportster
Modems as described previously in this application note. RCP software shall be configured to
communicate to the REL350 via the aforementioned modems. Several steps are to be completed in this
example.
1.
Configure the PONI R dipswitches to correspond to the appropriate baud rates of the
modem and RCP software.
2.
Attach the correct cables as to the relay devices as indicated in Figure 20. In this
example however, we shall disable handshaking (RTS/CTS) in the modem, so a straight
through DTE to DCE cable is necessary.
3.
Configure the US ROBOTIC modems to enable/disable the appropriate features.
4.
Configure the RCP software to connect to the modem and enable communications.
5.
Execute the communication command sequence and establish communications.
STEP 1
In this example, the communication baud rate selection shall be set for 9600 baud. The baud rate of the
PONI R card is configured via dipswitches located at the rear of the card, consult the PONI R manual
referenced in this document. Also configure the PONI R card for NO COMMAND ISSUED mode. If one
is to view the dipswitches of the PONI R (installed in the REL350) card, the four dipswitch positions (left to
