A - Info & Configuration

In this section you will find basic information about the device, as well as an overview of the device and its connections. Clicking on the corresponding connections opens a configuration window for the selected connection/channel and the corresponding configuration card in the lower area.

B - Menu bar

You can quickly navigate to the desired configuration card using the tabs for the corresponding main categories and the search field.

Configuration

In the lower area you will see all available tabs depending on the active channel/connection or the selected tab.


There are two possibilities for the device configuration:

  1. Selecting the tabs in the menu bar (area B) opens the corresponding higher-level category and selects the configuration card.

  2. Click directly on the connecting element in the schematic image to navigate to the desired configuration card (example: to configure digital output 1, click directly on the number "1" with the white background above the "Digital outputs" label) (see Overview under point 9)

Exemplary quick guide for a possible configuration
This is an example, the steps may vary depending on the configuration example.

Configuration steps:

  1. Assign a device name (see table item 1)

  2. Set the current transformer type (see table item 2)

  3. Configure the residual current measurements (see table item 2)

  4. Set the averaging time of the recording (see table, item 3)

  5. Set the digital outputs (see table item 4)

  6. Set the analog outputs (see table item 4)

  7. Synchronize the device time (see table item 6)

  8. Adjust the communication settings (RS-485) to the actual network environment (see table item 6)

  9. Select a test interval to configure the RCM test functions (see table item 6)

Configuration of the current transformers and the associated residual current measurements

  • Transformer for this channel
    You can select predefined current transformers from a list.
    In addition, you can select the item "Transformer parameters via GridVis" and set the following parameters there:

    • Duration of magnetization

    • Duration of demagnetization

    • Duration for secondary current buildup

    • Duration for stabilization

    • Ratio of primary to secondary current


  • Residual current measurement - Global settings
    You can set global settings for all measurements from this channel.


  • Residual current measurement - Individual settings
    You can make individual settings for warning and limit values.

Peripherals


Digital outputs

Click directly on the digital output in the device image, see Overview no. 9

Here you can select the error and warning states for the two digital outputs (multiple selection possible). You can also set the polarity (normally open or normally closed contact).

Communication






Configure the

RS-485 interface

with the following parameters

  • Device ID
    Default setting: 1

  • Baud rate
    Possible input: 9600 baud, 19200 baud, 38400 baud, 57600 baud, 115200 baud
    Default setting: 19200 baud

The Modbus mode cannot be changed because the device can only be used as a slave.

images/download/thumbnails/251039580/message-version-1-modificationdate-1678697732000-api-v2.png Note: After the baud rate or device ID has been changed, the device must be restarted manually.

Testing RCM functions

Here you can set a test interval for the RCM test functions.

Possible input: "No test interval...", 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
