The inputs and outputs are identified by a code and a sequence number. For instance, the digital inputs
are identified by code INPx, where x is the number of the input. In the same way, digital outputs are
identified by code OUTx.

14. Limit thresholds (LIMx)
T
he LIMn thresholds are internal variables whose status depends on the out-of-limits of one particular
measurement set by the user (e.g. total active power higher than 25kW) among all those measured.

download area concerning the low voltage power factor correction systems.
15. Remote-controlled variables (REMx)
The 8BGA power factor controller can manage up to 16 remote-controlled variables (REM1…REM16).
Those are variables which status can be modified by the user through the communication protocol and
that can be used in combination with outputs.

download area concerning the low voltage power factor correction systems.
16. User Alarms (UAx)
The user has the possibility to define a maximum of 8 programmable alarms (UA1…UA8).

17. Master-Slave configuration
To further extend the flexibility of use of 8BGA power factor controller it is available the Master-Slave
function, which allows, for plants with high installed power, to compose a series of panels in cascade,
each with its own controller and associated capacitor banks.

18. IR programming port
The parameters of the 8BGA power factor controller can be configured through the front optical port, using the IR-USB code
CX01 programming dongle, or with the IR-WiFi code CX02 dongle.
This programming port has the following advantages:
o
You can configure and service the power factor realy without access to the rear of the power factor relay or having to
open the electrical board.
o
It is galvanically isolated from the internal circuits of the power factor realy, guaranteeing the greatest safety for the
operator.
o
High speed data transfer.
o
IP54 front panel.
o
Limits the possibility of unauthorized access with device config.
Simply hold the CX dongle up to the front panel, connecting the plugs to the relevant connectors, and the device will be
acknowledged as shown by the LINK LED on the programming dongle flashing green.
