1. After a trip occurs the
Trip Alert
displays the time and date of the trip. The user then presses the
TEST/RESET
►
button.
2. The fault type is then displayed with the date the fault occurred. The fascia prompts the user to press the
TEST/RESET
►
button to view the details of this fault.
3. The information regarding the fault is then displayed. The user then presses the
TEST/RESET
►
button
to return to the home screen.
4. Pressing the
TEST/RESET
►
button one further time will reset the relay.
With the
Trip Alert
setting disabled the user only has to press the trip reset button once to reset the relay.
When examined together the event records and the fault records will detail the full sequence of events leading to
a trip.
Fault records are stored in a rolling buffer, with the oldest faults overwritten. The fault storage can be cleared with
the DATA STORAGE >
Clear Faults
setting or from Reydisp.
6.3.5
Disk Activity Warning
The Data Storage facilities offered by the Relay involve archiving a huge amount of data to non-volatile memory.
Since such functionality is always secondary to the Protection functionality offered by the Relay, this means that
data transfers can take significant amounts of time; perhaps several minutes. If the Relay is power-cycled during
a storage cycle, some of the data will be lost. For this reason, the Relay can provide a visual warning (at the top-
right position of the LCD) that data storage is taking place:
The '
' disk symbol shows that the copying of Events, Waveform Records or Fault Records, to non volatile
disk storage, is currently in progress.
This function is set by the SYSTEM CONFIG >
Disk Activity Symbol
setting.
To avoid such data archiving causing a sluggish response of the HMI during Testing or Commissioning – when a
considerable number of new Data records are likely to be created – it is possible to temporarily suspend it. The
duration of this block is set by the SYSTEM CONFIG >
Archiver Blocking Time
setting. Once this Time has
elapsed, the block is removed and all stored data will be archived as usual.
The 'A' symbol at the top-right position of the LCD indicates that new Events, Waveform Records or Fault
Records are currently being held in volatile RAM and the archiving, to non-volatile flash disk storage, is being
temporarily blocked.
6.4 Instruments
Real-time data is available from the relay fascia in the ‘Instruments Mode’ or via the data communications
interface.
The Primary values are calculated using the VT ratios set in the
CT/VT Config
menu.
The text displayed in the relays ‘Instruments Mode’ associated with each value can be changed from the default
text using the Reydisp Language Editor software tool.
The user can add the meters that are most commonly viewed to a ‘Favourites’ window by pressing ‘ENTER’ key
when viewing a meter. The relay will scroll through these meters at an interval set in the
System
Config/Favourite Meters Timer
menu.
