Figure. 8.1. - 176. Hardware scanning and IO naming principle in AQ-X257 IED
1. Scan: Start-up system, detect and self-test CPU-module, voltages, comm. and IO. Find and
assign DI1, DI2, DI3, OUT1, OUT2, OUT3, OUT4 and OUT5.
2. Scan: Scan Slot A, in case of AQ-X257 should be always empty. If not empty, then issue alarm.
3. Scan: Scan Slot B, in case of AQ-X257 should be always empty. If not empty, then issue alarm.
4. Scan: Scan Slot C, nd CTM module with 5 channels.
5. Scan: Scan Slot D, nd CTM module with 5 channels.
6. Scan: Scan Slot E, nd VTM module with 4 channels.
7. Scan: Scan Slot F, if empty go to next slot. If found 8DI module then reserve to this slot DI4,
DI5, DI6, DI7, DI8, DI9, DI10 and DI11. If found DO5 module then reserve to this slot OUT6,
OUT7, OUT8, OUT9 and OUT10. Amount of IO is added If the type designation code allows
and if not match then issue alarm as also if module is expected to be found and it is not there
alarm will be issued.
8. Scan: Scan Slot G, if is empty goes to next slot. If found 8DI module then reserve to this slot
running number regard if Slot F was empty or had other than DIx module then DI4, DI5, DI6,
DI7, DI8, DI9, DI10 and DI11 or if Slot C has also DI8 module then DI12, DI13, DI14, DI15,
DI16, DI17, DI18 and DI19. If found DO5 module then reserve to this slot OUT6, OUT7, OUT8,
OUT9 and OUT10 or OUT11, OUT12, OUT13, OUT14 and OUT15 with similar basis than as
for the inputs.
If found arc protection module, reserve sensor channels S1, S2, S3, S4, high speed outputs
HSO1, HSO2 and binary input channel ArcBI to this slot.
8-15 Scan: Similar operation to Scan 8.
In the previous example only IO add-on cards were described if installed into the option module slots. If
the slot has other type of module than IO they are treated similarly. For example, in case of added
communication port the upper port of the communication module shall be in minimum of Comm. port 3
etc. since in the CPU-module already exist Comm. ports 1 and 2. After communication port is detected
it is added into the communication space in the IED and corresponding settings are enabled for the
IED.
