ALARMS

 – Pressing the ALARMS button displays the 

alarms that are currently active. The active alarms may be 
scrolled through by using the 

 (Up) arrow and the 

 

(Down) arrow buttons. If the status indicator ALARMS LED 
is flashing, one or more alarms are active in the control. 
The LED for the ALARMS button will illuminate when this 
button is pressed. 

Row 3 – Reserved for future use

The buttons in row 3 are not currently used at this time.

Control features

The CBC-8000 capacitor bank control offers the following 
standard features:

Control security on Page 8

Manual mode on Page 8

Remote mode on Page 8

Automatic mode on Page 9

Alarming on Page 13

Priority table control on Page 13

Metering on Page 14

Data logs on Page 14

Control security

The control offers customer-programmable security codes to 
limit control programming and viewing function access to 
authorized personnel. The front panel Human-Machine 
Interface (HMI) includes a user-selected security code to 
access the settings. Plus, the ProView NXG software has its 
own security levels for multiple-user access.

Refer to the 

CBC-8000 capacitor bank control ProView NXG 

application software programming guide (MN916002EN)

 for 

additional information regarding how to set and change 
passwords.

Manual mode

The Manual operating mode allows manual control of the 
capacitor bank using the TRIP and CLOSE buttons on the 
front panel. When the control is in Manual mode, remote or 
automatic operation of the capacitor bank is disabled.

Note:

The MANUAL LED illuminates when the control is in 
manual operating mode.

If the MANUAL button is pressed during the delay time of a 
remote or automatic control operation, the delay time is 
stopped and the pending operation is canceled.

Pressing the MANUAL button places the control in Manual 
mode. The control will not accept remote Trip or Close 
commands, or use site measurements to operate the 
capacitor bank while in Manual mode. This is the highest 
priority command for the CBC and it cannot be overridden by 
any other command to the CBC. 

Taking the CBC out of Manual mode can only be done 
through the front panel. No command from the ProView NXG 
software or SCADA can change the operational mode from 
Manual.

When the control is changed to the Remote or Automatic 
operating mode, control based on local conditions is restored 
as follows:

• For Time control, a 2 minute timer starts when the control 

leaves Manual mode and any close or trip operation 
requested by the Time control strategy is delayed until the 
timer expires. This timer only applies to Time control; it 
does not affect capacitor bank operation initiated by any 
other control strategy.

• For all other Auto control requests, a 30 second manual 

delay timer is started when the control is removed from 
Manual mode. This is done as a safety measure to prevent 
immediate capacitor bank operation in case a track timer is 
set to a short time period. If a local condition starts 
tracking, before the 30 second manual delay timer has 
finished, the remaining amount of time for the manual 
delay timer is added to the tracking timer for the local 
condition that is requesting the operation. This ensures 
that the manual delay timer is allowed to run for the entire 
30 second time period and that the track timer is allowed 
to run for its entire duration.

Manual close delay time

The manual close delay timer provides a delay from the time 
that the manual CLOSE button is pressed to the time that the 
manual close operation is performed. This delay gives 
service personnel time to move away from the capacitor 
bank before the switch actually closes. The CLOSE LED 
blinks when the manual close delay timer is active.

The manual close delay is programmable from 30 to 255 
seconds in 1 second increments.

Remote mode

The Remote operating mode allows remote operation of the 
capacitor bank using a serial or Ethernet SelectComm 
communication module or a local USB connection with the 
ProView NXG software. Manual operation of the capacitor 
bank is disabled when the control is in Remote mode. 
However, automatic control is allowed when the control is in 
the remote operating mode.

When the control is in Remote mode, commands are 
accepted from the Master Station

Note:

The REMOTE LED illuminates when the control is in 
remote operating mode.
