Page 123: Introduction To Ac Sources
BACKGROUND The N60 may be used on systems with breaker-and-a-half or ring bus configurations. In these applications, each of the two three-phase sets of individual phase currents (one associated with each breaker) can be used as an input to a breaker fail- ure element.
Page 124 Source to be the sum of CT1 and CT2 and can name this Source as “Wdg 1 Current”. Once the sources have been configured, the user has them available as selections for the choice of input signal for the pro- tection elements and as metered quantities.

When entering a settings or command password via EnerVista or any serial interface, the user must enter the correspond- ing connection password. If the connection is to the back of the N60, the remote password must be used. If the connection is to the RS232 port of the faceplate, the local password must be used.
Page 127 If an entered password is lost (or forgotten), consult the factory with the corresponding ENCRYPTED PASSWORD If the setting and command passwords are identical, then this one password allows access to both com- mands and settings.

Page 131 Some customers prefer very low currents to display as zero, while others prefer the current be displayed even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The N60 applies a cut- off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured currents.
Page 132: Clear Relay Records
Selected records can be cleared from user-programmable conditions with FlexLogic™ operands. Assigning user-program- mable pushbuttons to clear specific records are typical applications for these commands. Since the N60 responds to rising edges of the configured FlexLogic™ operands, they must be asserted for at least 50 ms to take effect.
Page 133: Communications
0 ms The N60 is equipped with up to three independent serial communication ports. The faceplate RS232 port is intended for local use and is fixed at 19200 baud and no parity. The rear COM1 port type is selected when ordering: either an Ethernet or RS485 port.
Page 134 MODBUS SLAVE ADDRESS grammed. For the RS485 ports each N60 must have a unique address from 1 to 254. Address 0 is the broadcast address which all Modbus slave devices listen to. Addresses do not have to be sequential, but no two devices can have the same address or conflicts resulting in errors will occur.

Page 136 TIMEOUT: 120 s The N60 supports the Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) version 3.0. The N60 can be used as a DNP slave device con- nected to multiple DNP masters (usually an RTU or a SCADA master station). Since the N60 maintains two sets of DNP data change buffers and connection information, two DNP masters can actively communicate with the N60 at one time.
Page 137 DNP analog input points that are voltages will be returned with values 1000 times smaller (for example, a value of 72000 V on the N60 will be returned as 72). These settings are useful when analog input values must be adjusted to fit within cer- tain ranges in DNP masters.

Page 139 The N60 supports the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) protocol as specified by IEC 61850. MMS is supported over two protocol stacks: TCP/IP over ethernet and TP4/CLNP (OSI) over ethernet. The N60 operates as an IEC 61850 server. The Remote inputs and outputs section in this chapter describe the peer-to-peer GSSE/GOOSE message scheme.
Page 140 IEC 61850 GSSE application ID name string sent as part of each GSSE message. This GSSE ID string identifies the GSSE message to the receiving device. In N60 releases previous to 5.0x, this name string was repre- sented by the setting.
Page 141 DESTINATION MAC address; the least significant bit of the first byte must be set. In N60 releases previous to 5.0x, the destination Ethernet MAC address was determined automatically by taking the sending MAC address (that is, the unique, local MAC address of the N60) and setting the multicast bit.
Page 142 The N60 has the ability of detecting if a data item in one of the GOOSE datasets is erroneously oscillating. This can be caused by events such as errors in logic programming, inputs improperly being asserted and de-asserted, or failed station components.

Page 148 GGIO1 (binary status values). The settings allow the selection of FlexInteger™ values for each GGIO5 integer value point. It is intended that clients use GGIO5 to access generic integer values from the N60. Additional settings are provided to allow the selection of the number of integer values available in GGIO5 (1 to 16), and to assign FlexInteger™ values to the GGIO5 integer inputs.

Page 479: C.1.2 Communication Profiles
The N60 relay supports IEC 61850 server services over both TCP/IP and TP4/CLNP (OSI) communication protocol stacks. The TP4/CLNP profile requires the N60 to have a network address or Network Service Access Point (NSAP) to establish a communication link. The TCP/IP profile requires the N60 to have an IP address to establish communications. These addresses are located in the ...
Page 480: C.2.1 Overview
C.2.2 GGIO1: DIGITAL STATUS VALUES The GGIO1 logical node is available in the N60 to provide access to as many 128 digital status points and associated time- stamps and quality flags. The data content must be configured before the data can be used. GGIO1 provides digital status points for access by clients.
Page 481: C.2.6 Mmxu: Analog Measured Values
A limited number of measured analog values are available through the MMXU logical nodes. Each MMXU logical node provides data from a N60 current and voltage source. There is one MMXU available for each con- figurable source (programmed in the ...
Page 482 The protection elements listed above contain start (pickup) and operate flags. For example, the start flag for PIOC1 is PIOC1.ST.Str.general. The operate flag for PIOC1 is PIOC1.ST.Op.general. For the N60 protection elements, these flags take their values from the pickup and operate FlexLogic™ operands for the corresponding element.
Page 483: C.3.1 Buffered/Unbuffered Reporting
C.3.4 LOGICAL DEVICE NAME The logical device name is used to identify the IEC 61850 logical device that exists within the N60. This name is composed of two parts: the IED name setting and the logical device instance. The complete logical device name is the combination of the two character strings programmed in the settings.
Page 484: C.3.6 Logical Node Name Prefixes
A built-in TCP/IP connection timeout of two minutes is employed by the N60 to detect ‘dead’ connections. If there is no data traffic on a TCP connection for greater than two minutes, the connection will be aborted by the N60. This frees up the con- nection to be used by other clients.
Page 485: C.4.1 Overview
MAC address for GSSE messages. If GSSE DESTINATION MAC ADDRESS a valid multicast Ethernet MAC address is not entered (for example, 00 00 00 00 00 00), the N60 will use the source Ether- net MAC address as the destination, with the multicast bit set.
Page 486 The N60 has the ability of detecting if a data item in one of the GOOSE datasets is erroneously oscillating. This can be caused by events such as errors in logic programming, inputs improperly being asserted and de-asserted, or failed station components.
Page 487: C.4.5 Ethernet Mac Address For Gsse/Goose
REMOTE IN 1 ITEM item to remote input 1. Remote input 1 can now be used in FlexLogic™ equations or other settings. The N60 must be rebooted (control power removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect. The value of remote input 1 (Boolean on or off) in the receiving device will be determined by the GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal value in the sending device.
Page 488: C.4.6 Gsse Id And Goose Id Settings
GSSE and GOOSE messages must have multicast destination MAC addresses. By default, the N60 is configured to use an automated multicast MAC scheme. If the N60 destination MAC address setting is not a valid multicast address (that is, the least significant bit of the first byte is not set), the address used as the destina- tion MAC will be the same as the local MAC address, but with the multicast bit set.
Page 489: C.5.1 Overview
An ICD file is generated for the N60 by the EnerVista UR Setup software that describe the capabilities of the IED. The ICD file is then imported into a system configurator along with other ICD files for other IEDs (from GE or other ven- dors) for system configuration.
Page 490: C.5.2 Configuring Iec 61850 Settings
Transmission GOOSE dataset may be added or deleted, or prefixes of some logical nodes may be changed. While all new configurations will be mapped to the N60 settings file when importing an SCD file, all unchanged settings will preserve the same values in the new settings file.
Page 491: C.5.3 About Icd Files
Although configurable transmission GOOSE can also be created and altered by some third-party system con- figurators, we recommend configuring transmission GOOSE for GE Multilin IEDs before creating the ICD, and strictly within EnerVista UR Setup software or the front panel display (access through the Settings > Product Setup > Com- munications >...

Page 495: C.5.4 Creating An Icd File With Enervista Ur Setup
The EnerVista UR Setup will prompt to save the file. Select the file path and enter the name for the ICD file, then click OK to generate the file. The time to create an ICD file from the offline N60 settings file is typically much quicker than create an ICD file directly from the relay.
Page 496 Like ICD files, the Header node identifies the SCD file and its version, and specifies options for the mapping of names to signals.

Right-click anywhere in the files panel and select the Import Contents From SCD File item.
Page 499 The software will open the SCD file and then prompt the user to save a UR-series settings file. Select a location and name for the URS (UR-series relay settings) file. If there is more than one GE Multilin IED defined in the SCD file, the software prompt the user to save a UR-series set- tings file for each IED.
