Figure. 8.1. - 170. Hardware scanning and IO naming principle in AQ-216 IED
1. Scan: Start-up system, detect and self-test CPU-module, voltages, comm. and IO. Find and
assign DI1, DI2, DI3, OUT1, OUT2, OUT3, OUT4 and OUT5.
2. Scan: Scan Slot A&B, in case of X216 should be always empty. Otherwise error is issued.
3. Scan Slot B, in case of X216 should be always empty. Otherwise error is issued.
4. Scan: Scan Slot C, nd CTM module (5 channels).
5. Scan: Scan Slot D, nd CTM module (5 channels).
6. Scan: Scan slot E, if empty go to next slot. If found 8DI module then reserve to this slot DI4,
DI5, DI6, DI7, DI8, DI9, DI10 and DI11. If found DO5 module then reserve to this slot OUT6,
OUT7, OUT8, OUT9 and OUT10. Amount of IO is added If the type designation code allows
and if not match then issue alarm as also if module is expected to be found and is not there
alarm will be issued.
7. Scan: Scan Slot F, if empty go to next slot. If found 8DI module then reserve to this slot running
number regard if Slot E was empty or had other than Dix module then DI4, DI5, DI6, DI7, DI8,
DI9, DI10 and DI11 or if Slot A has also DI8 module then DI12, DI13, DI14, DI15, DI16, DI17,
DI18 and DI19. If found DO5 module then reserve to this slot OUT6, OUT7, OUT8, OUT9 and
OUT10 or OUT11, OUT12, OUT13, OUT14 and OUT15 with similar basis than for the inputs.
In the previous example only IO add-on cards were described if installed into the option module slots. If
the slot has other type of module than IO they are treated similarly. For example, in case of added
communication port the upper port of the communication module shall be in minimum of Comm. port 3
etc. since in the CPU-module already exist Comm. ports 1 and 2. After communication port is detected
it is added into the communication space in the IED and corresponding settings are enabled for the
IED.
In the example case of AQ-X216-XXXXXXX-
BC
number of available binary input channels is DI1…
DI11, of which DI1-DI3 are in the CPU module, DI4-DI11 are in Slot E. Available binary output channels
are DO1…DO10, of which DO1-DO5 are in the CPU module and DO6-DO10 are in slot F. If the
con guration should differ from this example the same principle is always applied into the IED.
