UR Family Firmware 5.80 - Release Notes
C
Enhanced DNP 3.0 protocol to properly report internal time delays under DNP object 52
Products: B30, B90, C30, C60, C70, D30, D60, F35, F60, G30, G60, L30, L60, L90, M60, N60, T35, T60
Impacted firmware: All except 5.04 and 5.54
Corrected firmware: 5.80
Description: The DNP3.0 protocol was enhanced to accurately estimate and report the value of “time
delay fine” that is comprised within the DNP 52 object. This time represents the period between the time of
message reception and the time of message reply by the UR relay and helps the DNP master to calculate
the delay in the serial wire. Firmware versions not affected: 5.04, 5.54.
GE tracking number: 504-5
PMU - Synchrophasors
E
The N60 PMU recorder capabilities have been enhanced to have eight additional analog channels
Products: N60
Corrected firmware: 5.80
Description: The N60 has been enhanced with the addition of eight analogs channels to the PMU
Recording element.
Taking into account this enhancement, the quantities of channels within a single PMU recorder are:
14 for phasors
16 analogs
16 digital
Adding the eight additional analog channels demanded changes to the Modbus addresses related to the
PMU recording settings. All PMU actual values and other PMU settings have not been affected. See the
N60 instruction manual for details.
GE tracking number: 580-19
M Changes to the PMU data recording function ensure an accurate time stamping of the PMU record
trigger
Products: N60, D60, L90, G60
Corrected firmware: 5.80
Description: The PMU recorder function has been modified to ensure that its trigger is time-stamped
accurately. Previous firmware versions can time-stamp the trigger event with the time of the previous
PMU reporting interrupt. All the other PMU functions (for example, data generation and recording) work
correctly. All customers using the PMU recording functionality can upgrade their devices so that the
trigger event is time-stamped properly.

Events and records
R
Changes on the Oscillography recorder ensure the event sampling rate follows the set sampling rate
Products: L60
Corrected firmware: 5.80
Description: Oscillography settings on the L60 allow the user to choose sampling rates from eight to 64
samples per cycle. However, previous firmware versions, regardless of this setting, always record
oscillography events at 64 samples per cycle. This limits the length of the record. Firmware version 5.80
ensures oscillography events are recorded as per the sampling rate set by users. L60 users who require a
sampling rate below 64 samples per cycle are advised to upgrade their device firmware.
