Latch bits provide nonvolatile storage of binary information. A latch can have the
value of logical 0 or logical 1. Latch bits also retain their state through changes in
the active protection settings group. Because storage of latch bits is in nonvolatile
memory, the state of latch bits remains unchanged indefinitely, even when power
is lost to the relay.
As with logic latches used in digital electronics, each latch bit has a Set input and
a Reset input. The relay evaluates the latch bit value at the end of each logic pro-
cessing interval using the values for Set and Reset calculated during the process-
ing interval. Latch bits are reset dominant. If the Set and Reset inputs are both
asserted, the relay will reset the latch.
Latch bits are available in two different programming areas of the relay. First,
there are 32 latch bits, PLT01–PLT32, that are associated with protection set-
tings. Second, there are 32 latch bits, ALT01–ALT32, available in automation
freeform programming. You can view the status of individual latch bits in the
Relay Word using the
TARGET
command. Use the
TAR PLT
nn
command or
the
TAR ALT
nn
command to view the Relay Word row containing the protec-
tion or automation latch bit specified by the two-digit number,
nn
. You can also
view the status of latch bits through the relay LCD front-panel display by select-
ing
RELAY ELEMENTS
from the Main Menu and scrolling through the rows of
Relay Word bits.
Protection Latch Bits
Program the 32 latch bits, PLT01–PLT32, in the protection freeform SEL
OGIC
control equation programming area. There is a separate protection freeform
SEL
OGIC
control equation programming area associated with each protection set-
tings group. The latches in protection can have separate programming for Set and
Reset in each protection settings group. While each protection latch value
remains unchanged for a change in the active protection settings group, you can
enter different Set and Reset programming for each protection settings group.
There are Set and Reset settings for each latch bit available in each group. For
example, PLT01R and PLT01S are available in all six freeform settings groups
and all control the same Latch Bit, PLT01. This structure allows you to either
program each latch to operate in the same way for each group or behave differ-
ently based on the active protection settings group. For example, you could pro-
gram the protection latch to set on IN107 when Protection Settings Group 1 is
active and program the latch to set on IN106 when Protection Settings Group 2 is
active. If you do not enter a setting for the Reset and Set in a protection settings
group, the latch bit will remain unchanged when that protection settings group is
active.
