IB02602004E
Prg w/Bkr:
This setting tells the relay if it can be programmed when the
breaker is open only or if it can be programmed if the breaker is
either opened or closed. When set to “Either”, the user is
permitted to program the relay when its associated breaker is in
the open or closed position. If set to “Open”, then the user may
only program the relay when the breaker is in the “open”
position. This is for security to prevent the user from changing
settings and perhaps tripping the breaker while it is closed and
carrying load.
The FP-6000 uses the “breaker a” and “breaker b” contacts to
determine if the breaker is opened or closed. The FP-6000 may be
configured to use only one auxiliary contact to determine breaker
position. If no auxiliary contacts are used then the FP-6000 will
not be able to determine breaker position and will allow
programming at any time regardless of this setting. See Section 8
for more information on breaker logic.
Remote Bkr:
If enabled, the user can remotely open and close the breaker via
communications through the FP-6000. The FP-6000 is shipped
with the “Remote Bkr” set to “disabled.” This setting has no
affect on the open and close operations through the contact
inputs or the relay front panel open/close buttons.
# Set Grps:
This setting refers to the number of different Protection Setting
Groups (1 to 4) that may be programmed into the FP-6000. Only
one setting group can be used at a time, but up to four may be
programmed.
Changing this setting will immediately ask you to confirm and
save the settings and will exit you out of the setting mode. Please
note that all settings made prior to this point will be saved upon
confirmation to save settings. This update is necessary for the
relay to provide access to the additional protection setting
groups.
To view the active setting group, the user must press the
“Status/Control”
pushbutton to enter the Status/Control mode
and select the “Status” sub-menu. The
“Status”
sub-menu is
shown below. To change the active setting group, the user must
press the “status/control” pushbutton to enter the “status/
control” mode and select the “control” sub-menu. The user must
select the “Sel Active Set Grp” sub-menu, then select the setting
group desired to change the active setting group. To set the
FP-6000 to its factory default settings see Section 5.3 for details.
Set Ctrl:
This setting allows the user to select the means of control for
selecting the active setting group. The default setting is Local,
which means the only way to change the active setting group is
via the front panel in the
“Status/Control Mode.”
If it is set to
communications
, the active setting group can only
be chosen via the C-H PowerPort or PowerNet software. Local +
Comm setting means the user can change the active setting
group either by the front panel or via software. If set to Cin, then
the only way to change the active setting group is through a
contact input, which the user would also have to program in the
Contact input CFG settings.
To change the active setting group, the user must press the
“Status/Control”
pushbutton to enter the Status/Control mode
and select the “Control” sub-menu. The user must select the “Sel
Active Set Grp” sub-menu, then select the setting group desired
to change the active setting group.
Disarm Ctrl:
If this setting is Enabled, the user has the ability to “arm” or
“disarm” the output trip contacts by going into the Test Mode
“Arm/Disarm Trip” sub-menu and selecting either Arm Trip or
Disarm Trip.
This is a two-step process: 1.) The Disarm Ctrl setting must be
enabled and 2.) The user must go into the Test Mode and select
the “Arm/Disarm” sub-menu, then select Arm Trip or Disarm Trip.
If the Disarm Ctrl setting is set to Disabled, the user cannot select
the Arm Trip or Disarm Trip in the “Arm/Disarm Trip” sub-menu.
The message “Functions programmed to disable See System
Config.” will appear in the display window.
Energy Unit:
This setting determines how the energy units are displayed. The
selection is either kWh (kilowatt-hours) or MWh (megawatt-
hours).
TOC Reset T:
This is the Inverse Time Overcurrent Reset Time delay setting,
which is used when “T Delay” is chosen for the reset of a 51 time
overcurrent device in protection settings as described in Section
5.3.2. This time will apply to all of the 51P, 51P-2, 51X and 51R
elements that have the selected “T Delay” for reset
characteristics. Please refer to Section 5.3.2 for a complete
description of the reset characteristics for the 51 TOC elements.
Bkr Oper PB:
This setting allows the user to enable or disable the Breaker Open
and Close pushbuttons on the front panel. The FP-6000 is shipped
from the factory with the Bkr Oper PB set to “disabled.”
