• Force LEDs
SIMULATION STATE
Range: Disabled, Prefault State, Fault State, Postfault State
Default: Disabled
Program the Simulation State to "Disabled" if actual system inputs are to be monitored.
If programmed to any other value, the relay is in test mode and actual system
parameters are not monitored, including Current, Voltage, and Contact Inputs. The
system parameters simulated by the relay are those in the following section that
correspond to the programmed value of this setpoint. For example, if programmed to
"Fault", then the system parameters are set to those defined by the Fault setpoint
values.
While in test mode, Contact Input states are automatically forced to the values set in
Setpoints > Testing > Contact Inputs
When the Fault State is set as the Simulation State and a Trip occurs, the Simulation
State automatically transitions to the Postfault State.
PRE-FAULT TO FAULT TRIGGER
Range: Off, On, any FlexLogic Operand
Default: Off
FORCE RELAYS
Range: Disabled, Enabled
Default: Disabled
When in test mode, and Force Relays is "Enabled", relay states can be forced from the
Setpoints > Testing > Output Relays
output contacts. When in test mode, and Force Relays is "Disabled", the relay states
maintain their normal operation. Forcing of output relay states is not performed when
the Simulation State is "Disabled".
FORCE LEDS
Range: Disabled, Enabled
Default: Disabled
When in test mode, and Force LEDs is "Enabled", LED states and colors can be forced
from the Setpoints > Testing > Test LEDs
the LEDs. When in test mode, and Test LEDs is "Disabled", the LED states and colors will
maintain their normal operation. Forcing of LEDs is not performed when the Simulation
State is "Disabled".
This state is intended to simulate the normal operating condition of a system by replacing
the normal input parameters with programmed pre-fault values. For proper simulation,
values entered here must be below the minimum trip setting of any protection feature.
Voltage magnitudes and angles are entered as Wye values only. The voltage setpoints are
not available if the corresponding VT Bank PHASE VT CONNECTION setpoint is Delta.
Voltages are set in secondary VT units.
The CT and VT Bank availability is dependent on the installed Order Code options.
