4.1 Overview
The PCS-9799 Station Manager is in quiescent state under normal conditions, and it is required to
respond promptly for faults. When the device is in energizing process before the LED “HEALTHY”
is on, the device need to be checked to ensure no abnormality. Therefore, the automatic
supervision function, which checks the health of the protection system when startup and during
normal operation, plays an important role.
This device based on the microprocessor operations is suitable for implementing this automatic
supervision function of the system.
In case a defect is detected during initialization when DC power supply is provided to the device,
the device will be blocked with indication and alarm of device out of service.
When a failure is detected by the automatic supervision, it is followed by a LCD message, LED
indication and alarm contact outputs. The failure alarm is also recorded in event recording report
and can be printed if required.
4.2 Supervision Alarms
Hardware circuit and operation status of the device are self-supervised continuously. If any
abnormal condition is detected, information or report will be displayed and a corresponding alarm
will be issued.
A minor abnormality may block a certain number of functions while the other functions can still
work. However, if severe hardware failure or abnormality, such as PWR module failure, DC
converter failure and so on, are detected, all functions will be blocked and the LED “HEALTHY”
will be extinguished. The device then cannot work normally and maintenance is required to
eliminate the failure. All the alarm signals and the corresponding handling suggestions are listed
below.
Note!
If the device is blocked or alarm signal is sent during operation, please do find out its
reason with the help of self-diagnostic record. If the reason cannot be found at site, a trial
recovery of the device by re-energization is suggested. Please contact the supplier if the
device is still failure.

8.1 Overview
Operator can access the device from the HMI panel. Local communication with the device is
possible in using a computer via the multiplex RJ45 port on the HMI panel. Furthermore, remote
communication is also possible in using a PC with the SCADA via a RS485 port or a Ethernet port
on the MON module.
This chapter describes the human machine interface (HMI), and gives out an instruction about
how to display or print event report, setting and so on through HMI menu tree and display
metering value, including r.m.s. current, voltage and frequency etc. through LCD. Procedure to
change active setting group or a settable parameter value through keypad is also described in
details.

8.1.5 Ethernet Port Setup
MON plug-in module is equipped with two or four 100Base-TX Ethernet interface. Take
NR4106MB as an example, its rear view and the definition of terminals are shown in the following
figure.
The Ethernet port can be used to communication with PC via auxiliary software (PCS-Explorer)
after connecting the device with PC, so as to fulfill on-line function (please refer to the instruction
manual of PCS-Explorer). At first, the connection between the device and PC must be established.
Through setting the IP address and subnet mask of corresponding Ethernet interface in the menu
"Settings -> Comm Settings -> IP", it should be ensured that the device and PC are in the same
network segment. For example, setting the IP address and subnet mask of network A. (using
network A to connect with PC)
PC: IP address is set as "198.87.96.102", subnet mask is set as "255.255.255.0"
The IP address and subnet mask of device should be [IP_LAN1] = 198.87.96.XXX, [Mask_LAN1]
=255.255.255.0, [En_LAN1] =1. (XXX can be any value from 0 to 255 except 102)

10 Communication
10.1 Overview
This section outlines the remote communications interfaces of this device. This device supports
several protocols (server & client) via the rear communication interfaces. The standard protocols
provided by the device are instructed in this chapter.
The rear EIA RS-485 interface is isolated and is suitable for permanent connection of whichever
protocol is selected. The advantage of this type of connection is that up to 32 devices can be
"daisy chained" together using a simple twisted pair electrical connection.
It should be noted that the descriptions contained within this section do not aim to fully detail the
protocol itself. The relevant documentation for the protocol should be referred to for this
information. This section serves to describe the specific implementation of the protocol in the
device.
Note!
A special demand besides the standard protocols described in this chapter must be
declared obviously and clearly in the technic sheet and the contract. Please pay attention
and provide detailed protocol demand when ordering.
10.2 Rear Communication Port
10.2.1 RS-485 Interface

This device provides several rear RS-485 communication ports, and each port has three terminals
in the connector located on the back of the device and each port has a ground terminal for the
earth shield of the communication cable. The rear ports provide RS-485 serial data communication
and are intended for use with a permanently wired connection to a remote control center.
10.2.1.1 EIA RS-485 Standardized Bus
The EIA RS-485 two-wire connection provides a half-duplex fully isolated serial connection to the
product. The connection is polarized and whilst the product’s connection diagrams indicate the
polarization of the connection terminals it should be borne in mind that there is no agreed
definition of which terminal is which. If the master is unable to communicate with the product, and
the communication parameters match, then it is possible that the two-wire connection is reversed.
10.2.1.2 Bus Termination
The EIA RS-485 bus must have 120Ω (Ohm) ½ Watt terminating resistors fitted at either end
across the signal wires (refer to the following figure). Some devices may be able to provide the bus
terminating resistors by different connection or configuration arrangements, in which case
separate external components will not be required. However, this product does not provide such a
facility, so if it is located at the bus terminus then an external termination resistor will be required.

120Ohm
Slave Slave Slave
Figure 10.2-1 EIA RS-485 bus connection arrangements
10.2.1.3 Bus Connections & Topologies
The EIA RS-485 standard requires that each device be directly connected to the physical cable
that is the communications bus. Stubs and tees are expressly forbidden, such as star topologies.
Loop bus topologies are not part of the EIA RS-485 standard and are forbidden by it.
Two-core screened cable is recommended. The specification of the cable will be dependent on the
application, although a multi-strand 0.5mm 2 per core is normally adequate. Total cable length must
not exceed 500m. The screen must be continuous and connected to ground at one end, normally
at the master connection point; it is important to avoid circulating currents, especially when the
cable runs between buildings, for both safety and noise reasons.
This product does not provide a signal ground connection. If a signal ground connection is present
in the bus cable then it must be ignored, although it must have continuity for the benefit of other
devices connected to the bus. At no stage must the signal ground be connected to the cables
screen or to the product’s chassis. This is for both safety and noise reasons.
10.2.1.4 Biasing
It may also be necessary to bias the signal wires to prevent jabber. Jabber occurs when the signal
level has an indeterminate state because the bus is not being actively driven. This can occur when
all the slaves are in receive mode and the master is slow to turn from receive mode to transmit
mode. This may be because the master purposefully waits in receive mode, or even in a high
impedance state, until it has something to transmit. Jabber causes the receiving device(s) to miss
the first bits of the first character in the packet, which results in the slave rejecting the message
and consequentially not responding. Symptoms of these are poor response times (due to retries),
increasing message error counters, erratic communications, and even a complete failure to
communicate.
Biasing requires that the signal lines be weakly pulled to a defined voltage level of about 1V. There
should only be one bias point on the bus, which is best situated at the master connection point.
The DC source used for the bias must be clean; otherwise, noise will be injected. Note that some
devices may (optionally) be able to provide the bus bias, in which case external components will
not be required.

Date: 2015-03-31
10 Communication
Note!
It is extremely important that the 120Ω termination resistors be fitted. Failure to do so will
result in an excessive bias voltage that may damage the devices connected to the bus.
As the field voltage is much higher than that required, NR cannot assume responsibility for
any damage that may occur to a device connected to the network because of incorrect
application of this voltage.
Ensure that the field voltage is not being used for other purposes (i.e. powering logic inputs)
as this may cause noise to be passed to the communication network.
10.2.2 Ethernet Interface

This device can provide four rear Ethernet interfaces (optional) and they are unattached each
other. Parameters of each Ethernet port can be configured in the menu "Settings→Device
Setup→Comm Settings".
10.2.2.1 Ethernet Standardized Communication Cable
It is recommended to use twisted shielded eight-core cable as the communication cable. A picture
is shown below.
Figure 10.2-2 Ethernet communication cable
10.2.2.2 Connections and Topologies
Each equipment is connected with an exchanger via communication cable, and thereby it forms a
star structure network. Dual-network is recommended in order to increase reliability. SCADA is
connected to the exchanger and will play a role as master station, other equipment connected to
the exchanger will play a role as slave unit.

10.3 IEC60870-5-103 Interface over Serial Port
The IEC60870-5-103 interface via serial port (RS-485) is a master/slave interface with the device
as the slave device. It is properly developed by NR.
The device conforms to compatibility level 3.
The following IEC60870-5-103 facilities are supported by this interface:
1. Initialization (reset)
2. Time synchronization
3. Event record extraction
4. General interrogation
5. General commands
6. Disturbance records
10.3.1 Physical Connection and Link Layer

Two EIA RS-485 standardized ports are available for IEC60870-5-103 in this device. The
transmission speed is optional: 4800 bit/s, 9600 bit/s, 19200 bit/s or 38400 bit/s.
The link layer strictly abides by the rules defined in the IEC60870-5-103.
10.3.2 Initialization
Whenever the device has been powered up, or if the communication parameters have been
changed, a reset command is required to initialize the communications. The device will respond to
either of the two reset commands (Reset CU or Reset FCB), the difference is that the Reset CU

Date: 2015-03-31
10 Communication
will clear any unsent messages in the transmit buffer.
The device will respond to the reset command with an identification message ASDU 5, the COT
(Cause Of Transmission) of this response will be either Reset CU or Reset FCB depending on the
nature of the reset command.
10.3.3 Time Synchronization

The device time and date can be set using the time synchronization feature of the
IEC60870-5-103 protocol. The device will correct for the transmission delay as specified in
IEC60870-5-103. If the time synchronization message is sent as a send/confirm message then the
device will respond with a confirmation. Whether the time-synchronization message is sent as a
send confirmation or a broadcast (send/no reply) message, a time synchronization class 1 event
will be generated/produced.
If the device clock is synchronized using the IRIG-B input then it will not be possible to set the
device time using the IEC60870-5-103 interface. An attempt to set the time via the interface will
cause the device to create an event with the current date and time taken from the IRIG-B
synchronized internal clock.
10.3.4 Spontaneous Events

Events are categorized using the following information:
1. Type identification (TYP)
2. Function type (FUN)
3. Information number (INF)
Messages sent to substation automation system are grouped according to IEC60870-5-103

protocol. Operating elements are sent by ASDU2 (time-tagged message with relative time), and
status of binary signal and alarm element are sent by ASDU1 (time-tagged message). The cause
of transmission (COT) of these responses is 1.
10.3.5 General Interrogation

The GI can be used to read the status of the device, the function numbers, and information
numbers that will be returned during the GI cycle. The GI cycle strictly abides by the rules defined
in the IEC60870-5-103.
Refer the IEC60870-5-103 standard can get the enough details about general interrogation.
10.3.6 General Service

The generic functions can be used to read the setting and measurement of the device, and modify
the setting. Two supported type identifications are ASDU 21 and ASDU 10. For more details about
generic functions, see the IEC60870-5-103 standard.

Date: 2015-03-31
11 Installation
The modules, bus backplanes are sensitive to electrostatic discharge when not in the
unit's housing.
The basic precautions to guard against electrostatic discharge are as follows:
1. Should boards have to be removed from this device installed in a grounded cubicle in an HV
switchgear installation, please discharge yourself by touching station ground (the cubicle)
beforehand.
2. Only hold electronic boards at the edges, taking care not to touch the components.
3. Only works on the board which has been removed from the cubicle on a workbench designed
for electronic equipment and wear a grounded wristband. Do not wear a grounded wristband,
however, while inserting or withdrawing units.
4. Always store and ship the electronic boards in their original packing. Place electronic parts in
electrostatic screened packing materials.
11.3 Check Shipment

In the case of equipment supplied in cubicles, place the cubicles on the foundations that have
been prepared. Take care while doing so not to jam or otherwise damage any of the cables that
have already been installed. Secure the cubicles to the foundations.
11.7 Electrical Installation and Wiring

11.7.1 Grounding Guidelines
Switching operations in HV installations generate transient over voltages on control signal cables.
There is also a background of electromagnetic RF fields in electrical installations that can induce
spurious currents in the devices themselves or the leads connected to them.
All these influences can influence the operation of electronic apparatus.
On the other hand, electronic apparatus can transmit interference that can disrupt the operation of
other apparatus.
In order to minimize these influences as far as possible, certain standards have to be observed
with respect to grounding, wiring and screening.
Note!
All these precautions can only be effective if the station ground is of good quality.
11.7.2 Cubicle Grounding

The cubicle must be designed and fitted out such that the impedance for RF interference of the
ground path from the electronic device to the cubicle ground terminal is as low as possible.
Metal accessories such as side plates, blanking plates etc., must be effectively connected
surface-to-surface to the grounded frame to ensure a low-impedance path to ground for RF
interference. The contact surfaces must not only conduct well, they must also be non-corroding.
Note!
If the above conditions are not fulfilled, there is a possibility of the cubicle or parts of it
forming a resonant circuit at certain frequencies that would amplify the transmission of
Date: 2015-03-31
11 Installation
interference by the devices installed and also reduce their immunity to induced
interference.
Movable parts of the cubicle such as doors (front and back) or hinged equipment frames must be
effectively grounded to the frame by three braided copper strips (see Figure 11.7-1).
The metal parts of the cubicle housing and the ground rail are interconnected electrically
conducting and corrosion proof. The contact surfaces shall be as large as possible.
Note!
For metallic connections please observe the voltage difference of both materials
according to the electrochemical code.
The cubicle ground rail must be effectively connected to the station ground rail by a grounding strip
(braided copper).

11.7.3 Ground Connection on the Device

There is a ground terminal on the rear panel, and the ground braided copper strip can be
connected with it. Take care that the grounding strip is always as short as possible. The main thing
is that the device is only grounded at one point. Grounding loops from unit to unit are not allowed.
There are some ground terminals on some connectors of this device, and the sign is “GND”. All the
ground terminals are connected in the cabinet of this device. Therefore, the ground terminal on the
rear panel (see Figure 11.7-2) is the only ground terminal of this device.
Date: 2015-03-31
11 Installation
Figure 11.7-2 Ground terminal of this device
11.7.4 Grounding Strips and their Installation

High frequency currents are produced by interference in the ground connections and because of
skin effect at these frequencies, only the surface region of the grounding strips is of consequence.
The grounding strips must therefore be of (preferably tinned) braided copper and not round copper
conductors, as the cross-section of round copper would have to be too large.
Proper terminations must be fitted to both ends (press/pinch fit and tinned) with a hole for bolting
them firmly to the items to be connected.
The surfaces to which the grounding strips are bolted must be electrically conducting and
non-corroding.
The following figure shows the ground strip and termination.

11.7.5 Guidelines for Wiring

There are several types of cables that are used in the connection of this device: braided copper
cable, serial communication cable etc. Recommendation of each cable:
1. Grounding: braided copper cable, 2.5mm 2 ~ 6.0mm 2
2. Power supply, binary inputs & outputs: brained copper cable, 1.0mm 2 ~ 2.5mm 2

12.5.2.3 Light Emitting Diode (LED)
On power up, the green LED "HEALTHY” should have illuminated and stayed on indicating that
the device is healthy.
The device has latched signal devices which remember the state of the trip, auto-reclose when
the device was last energized from an auxiliary supply. Therefore these indicators may also
illuminate when the auxiliary supply is applied. If any of these LEDs are on then they should be
reset before proceeding with further testing. If the LED successfully reset, the LED goes out.
There is no testing required for that that LED because it is known to be operational.
It is likely that alarms related to voltage transformer supervision will not reset at this stage.
12.5.2.4 LED Test
1. Apply the rated DC power supply and check that the "HEALTHY” LED is lighting in green. We
need to emphasize that the "HEALTHY” LED is always lighting in operation course except that
the equipment find serious errors in it.

12.5.3 On-load Check
The objectives of the on-load checks are:
1. Confirm the external wiring to the current and voltage inputs is correct.
2. Measure the magnitude of on-load current and voltage (if applicable).
3. Check the polarity of each current transformer.
However, these checks can only be carried out if there are no restrictions preventing the
tenderization of the plant being protected.
Remove all test leads, temporary shorting leads, etc. and replace any external wiring that has
been removed to allow testing.
If it has been necessary to disconnect any of the external wiring from the device in order to
perform any of the foregoing tests, it should be ensured that all connections are replaced in
accordance with the relevant external connection or scheme diagram. Confirm current and
voltage transformer wiring.
12.6 Final Check

After the above tests are completed, remove all test or temporary shorting leads, etc. If it has been
necessary to disconnect any of the external wiring from the device in order to perform the wiring
verification tests, it should be ensured that all connections are replaced in accordance with the
relevant external connection or scheme diagram.
Ensure that the device has been restored to service.
If the device is in a new installation or the circuit breaker has just been maintained, the circuit
breaker maintenance and current counters should be zero. If a test block is installed, remove the
test plug and replace the cover so that the device is put into service.
Ensure that all event records, fault records and alarms have been cleared and LED’s has been
reset before leaving the device.

13 Maintenance
This device is designed to require no special maintenance. All measurement and signal
processing circuit are fully solid state. All input modules are also fully solid state. The output relays
are hermetically sealed.
Since the device is almost completely self-monitored, from the measuring inputs to the output
relays, hardware and software defects are automatically detected and reported. The
self-monitoring ensures the high availability of the device and generally allows for a corrective
rather than preventive maintenance strategy. Therefore, maintenance checks in short intervals
are not required.
Operation of the device is automatically blocked when a hardware failure is detected. If a problem
is detected in the external measuring circuits, the device normally only provides alarm messages.
13.1 Appearance Check

1. The device case should be clean without any dust stratification. Case cover should be sealed
well. No component has any mechanical damage and distortion, and they should be firmly
fixed in the case. Device terminals should be in good condition. The keys on the front panel
with very good feeling can be operated flexibly.
2. It is only allowed to plug or withdraw device board when the supply is reliably switched off.
Never allow the CT secondary circuit connected to this equipment to be opened while the
primary system is live when withdrawing an AC module. Never try to insert or withdraw the
device board when it is unnecessary.
3. Check weld spots on PCB whether they are well soldered without any rosin joint. All dual
inline components must be well plugged.
13.2 Failure Tracing and Repair

Failures will be detected by automatic supervision or regular testing.
When a failure is detected by supervision, a remote alarm is issued and the failure is indicated on
the front panel with LED indicators and LCD display. It is also recorded in the event record.
Failures detected by supervision are traced by checking the “Superv State” screen on the LCD.
When a failure is detected during regular testing, confirm the following:
1. Test circuit connections are correct
2. Modules are securely inserted in position
3. Correct DC power voltage is applied
4. Correct AC inputs are applied
5. Test procedures comply with those stated in the manual
13.3 Module Replacement

If the failure is identified to be in the device module and the user has spare modules, the user can

13 Maintenance
recover the device by replacing the failed modules.
Repair at the site should be limited to module replacement. Maintenance at the component level
is not recommended.
Check that the replacement module has an identical module name (AI, PWR, MON, BI, BO, etc.)
and hardware type-form as the removed module. Furthermore, the MON module replaced should
have the same software version. In addition, the AI and PWR module replaced should have the
same ratings.
The module name is indicated on the top front of the module. The software version is indicated in
LCD menu “Information”->“Version Info”.
Caution!
When handling a module, take anti-static measures such as wearing an earthed wristband
and placing modules on an earthed conductive mat. Otherwise, many of the electronic
components could suffer damage.
1. Replacing a module
1) Switch off the DC power supply
2) Disconnect the trip outputs
3) Short circuit all AC current inputs and disconnect all AC voltage inputs
4) Unscrew the module connector
5) Unplug the connector from the target module.
6) Unscrew the module.
7) Pull out the module
8) Inset the replacement module in the reverser procedure.
9) After replacing the MON module, input the application-specific setting values again.
Warning!
Hazardous voltage can be present in the DC circuit just after switching off the DC power
supply. It takes approximately 30 seconds for the voltage to discharge.
2. Replacing the Human Machine Interface Module (front panel)
1) Open the device front panel
2) Unplug the ribbon cable on the front panel by pushing the catch outside.
3) Detach the HMI module from the device
4) Attach the replacement module in the reverse procedure.

13 Maintenance
Warning!
Units and modules may only be replaced while the supply is switched off and only by
appropriately trained and qualified personnel. Strictly observe the basic precautions to
guard against electrostatic discharge.
Warning!
When handling a module, take anti-static measures such as wearing an earthed wristband
and placing modules on an earthed conductive mat. Otherwise, many of the electronic
components could suffer damage. After replacing the MON module, check the settings.
Danger!
After replacing modules, be sure to check that the same configuration is set as before the
replacement. If this is not the case, there is a danger of the unintended operation of
switchgear taking place or of devices not functioning correctly. Persons may also be put in
danger.
13.4 Cleaning
Before cleaning the device, ensure that all AC/DC supplies, current transformer connections are
isolated to prevent any chance of an electric shock whilst cleaning. Use a smooth cloth to clean
the front panel. Do not use abrasive material or detergent chemicals.
13.5 Storage
The spare device or module should be stored in a dry and clean room. Based on IEC standard
60255-1 the storage temperature should be from -40°C to +70°C, but the temperature of from 0°C
to +40°C is recommended for long-term storage.
