c)
Checking the transmission and the reception levels (analog line).
In the configuration page (
Line interfaces
submenu of the
Equipment
menu) check
the programmed values and check in line the actual values in the corresponding
terminals (Tx and Rx) measuring the guard signal using a selective voltmeter.
d)
Checking the link
.
This operation involves cutting the teleprotection link
Properly program the identification codes (same local Tx et Rx values).
For full test terminal, make a permanent
local loop
in line (option
Loops, Blocking
and Test
option of the
Alignment
menu).
Before carrying out the loop, the command outputs of the terminal should be
suitably treated in order to make sure that no undesired output activation take place.
Carry out command transmission (
Input activation
option of the
Alignment
menu)
and check whether the activation has initiated the transmission of the desired
command, and the reception in case the terminal is not blocked.
e)
Checking the relays
.
This operation involves cutting the teleprotection link
Since some of the alarm or signalling relays are connected to a telecontrol system,
it is important to check that the connections are correct.
In normal operating conditions, the relays programmed for alarm signalling are
active (C and T contacts closed) while, in the case of relays programmed for
transmission signalling, command output and unblocking, are NO active (C and R
contacts closed).
One way of energizing the relays is to program the blocking option of the
Alignment
menu of the Management System, if the programming associated with the relays
provides alarm generation under this circumstance.
