Overview General description
1 General description
1.1 Functional description
Easergy T200 I and T200 E is designed to be installed in MV/LV network substations.
It contains all the functions required to monitor and control the motorized cubicles:
Management of MV switch opening/closing electric control unit
The control is triggered by REMOTE CONTROL from the remote control station or by a
LOCAL operator command (pushbutton) or by internal AUTOMATIC CONTROLS.
Phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth fault current detection.
Measurement acquisition and processing:
When the fault detection option is installed on the equipment, the T200 I and E
incorporates for each channel one of the following measurements:
Calculation of the rms load current (if current measurement module installed);
Single-phase or three-phase voltage measurement (if voltage measurement
module installed).
Monitoring, for the purposes of remote indication and/or local display, of MV
substation and T200 I and E information:
Open/closed position of MV switches;
"Locked" state of MV switches;
Detection of the flow of phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth fault current (on
channels provided with the fault detection option);
Voltage presence (if the option is present);
Automatic control ON/OFF position;
Immediate alternating supply undervoltage;
Time-delayed alternating supply undervoltage;
Charger fault;
Battery fault;
External 12 V power supply failure;
Motorization supply undervoltage.
Dated logging events:
Time-stamped chronological logging of events and measurements. This information
can be transmitted to the control centre and archived in logs for consultation and local
downloading (in the form of files), by connection of a microcomputer.
Predefined Automations:
SEC (Sectionalizer): Automatic control for opening the MV switch following
detection of a number of fault currents in the source substation reset cycle.
ATS (Automatic Transfer of Source): Automatic source changeover upon voltage
loss detected on one of the channels.
BTA (Bus Tie Automatism) : Automatic control for source changeover between 2
incoming switches and one busbar coupling switch.
Backed-up power supply
For all the control unit components, the transmission equipment and the switch
motorization with several hours' power reserve in the event of an AC supply outage.
Local communication or communication with the remote control centre
One or two communication ports (option) are available for remote communication
with the control centre so as to manage two transmission channels. These ports
can be used redundantly (normal/backup), for repeater or maintenance
applications. The ports use either modems integrated in the COM card or external
equipment managed by the rack serial link.
A choice of modem for each port allowing any type of mounting:
♦ Radio (600/1200 baud FSK or 1200/2400 FFSK)
♦ PSTN isolated at 8 kV (300 to 14400 bits/s - V32 bis)
♦ GSM / GPRS (quad-band version 900/1800/850/1900 MHz), SIM card
accessible on the front panel
♦ GSM / 3G - UMTS & HSPA+ (3,75G), EDGE, GRPS & GSM. Quad-band
modem in GSM (900/1800/850/1900 MHz) and five band in 3G
(800/850/AWS/1900/2100 MHz), SIM card accessible on the front panel
♦ LL isolated at 8 kV (1200 baud FSK)
♦ RS232
♦ RS485 isolated at 2 kV (19200 baud)
Note: In an RS232 link, port 1 is replaced by the RS232 port integral with the COM
card and accessible via the 9-pin D-SUB (DB-9) connector on the right of the rack.

Overview General description
Inter-equipment communication
The IEC 61131-3 programmable automatic control option also includes an inter-
equipment communication function, allowing Modbus exchange, via a TCP/IP link,
between T200 devices connected to the same MV circuit. This communication allows
exchange of a data table between these T200 devices, in order to contribute, for
example (without any other PLC than the T200's), to an automatic control function
allowing detection and clearing of a current fault on an MV circuit.
(For more details regarding these three functions, refer to the specific "RTU Control &
Formulae" manual – ref. NT00320-xx).
Calculation formulae
The calculation formulae are a standard feature of the T200.
They can be used in the T200 to create new customized functions or applications not
requiring writing of a program in PLC language.
The functions that can be used in the formulae are:
- Mathematical functions;
- Statistical functions;
- Logical functions;
- Time/date functions;
- etc.
These formulae make it possible, more easily than with a PLC program, to create logic
equations based on combinations of variables. The types of variables that can be
used are the same as for PLC programs (existing T200 variables or virtual variables
created specifically). This inter-equipment communication is typically used in
applications of the self-healing network type.

Connection to the T200 Overview of the Web server
Maintenance Pages:
Several pages can facilitate maintenance of the T200, by giving information or
allowing configuration of the T200 application:
1. General information: Specific sub-pages provide information concerning the
T200 application, namely:
- Substation page: information concerning the current application (version No.
of the application and fault detector, date and time of last configuration, name
of substation, etc.).
- Software page: information concerning the software used by the T200
(version, date and time of compilation, size and CRC32).
The T200 is capable of storing two different software versions in memory. It
is possible to switch from one software version to another simply by selection
(if two versions are available).
Drop-down list – Maintenance page It is also possible to load a new software version from a file available on the
PC or from a floppy disk or CD-ROM.
ATTENTION : The loading process manages only the file format with .zip
extension. The software must therefore not be unzipped before loading it on
the T200 (file with .mem extension not managed).
Note: When loading a software on the T200, one in fact loads the protocol
used for remote transmission but also all the equipment operating options,
including some that are managed and displayed by the Web server if
configured and/or detected physically on the COM card, namely:
- The Modbus master function
- The function of synchronization by GPS
- The digital input counting function.
- Clock page: Allows the T200 date and time to be configured manually or
automatically from the time on the PC.
A click on the "Update" button causes the manual change of date and time to
be accepted.
A click on the "Synchronization" button allows the PC date and time to be
taken into account automatically for configuration on the T200.
Comment: This configuration is possible only if synchronization by SNTP
server or by GPS module is not installed in the T200.
Substation information – Maintenance page
- IP parameters page: Allows consultation or where applicable configuration
of the Ethernet and USB interface parameters (IP addresses, sub-network
masks, etc.).
When a GPRS or 3G modem is installed on the COM card, this page also
allows consultation of the IP addresses assigned automatically by the
GPRS/3G operator.
NB: It is dangerous to modify the Ethernet IP parameters, with a risk of no
longer being able to access the T200. Call on competent authorities to
modify these parameters.
- IP server ports page: allows redefinition of the port numbers used by the
T200 for COM card access, in the event that the transmission network does
not accept the default numbers (e.g. restriction on certain GPRS/3G
operators).
By default, the following port Nos. are configured on the T200:
HTTP server port = 80
Telnet server port = 23
Port 1,2 and TCP/IP trace server port = 1168, 1169 and 1170
This page is optional depending on the embedded software in the T200 (e.g.
present page for software including GPRS/3G transmission).
NB: If the HTTP port number is changed in this page, to be able to log
on to the T200 Web server again, it is essential to add the port number
Port trace – Maintenance page at the end of the T200's IP address preceded by a colon
(e.g. 10.207.154.239:1500 for a T200 access on port 1500).
- User page: Allows creation, modification or deletion of users and
management of rights (login, password, access rights).
2. Port 1 & 2 & TCP/IP & Modbus Master traces: The "Port 1, 2 and TCP/IP
traces" pages allow viewing, for each available port, of communication
exchanges between the control centre and the T200.
The "Modbus Master trace" page allows viewing of exchanges between the
T200 and the Modbus slaves of the substation (see additional manual
NT00121-xx).
This trace is displayed on screen in decoded form to facilitate reading of the
frame's content:
Column 1: frame time-and-date stamping (in
hour:minute:second.thousandth of second format).
Column 2: direction of dialogue, RTU -> PC or PC -> RTU, with
associated address Nos of the PC and RTU.
Column 3: hexadecimal frame + brief description of the content of the

3. Configuration:
- Save/Restore page: Allows all the current T200 configuration parameters to
be saved to a file.
It is also possible to load from a file available on your PC or from a floppy disk
or CD-ROM the T200 configuration parameters coming from a preceding
backup or coming from another substation.
This file can be used to configure one or more other substations in the same
way without being obliged to reconfigure all the parameters one by one.
Note: During loading from a file, the data integrity is verified automatically so as
to ensure the compatibility of application versions.
Drop-down list – Settings page Seetings Pages
Configuration of the T200 is performed from pages grouped together in several
different categories:
1. Communication: Several pages allow you to configure the specific
communication parameters of the T200:
- Operation Mode page: For each communication port available on the T200,
it is possible to determine:
The protocol available;
The type of transmission medium to be used (Radio, PSTN, GSM, etc.);
The way in which the ports will be managed according to one of the
available modes:
Not used
Normal
Balanced – Normal/Backup
Main – Normal/Backup

The converter is powered from the 12V / 24Ah battery source of the T200 enclosure
(from the Battery 12V connector on the right-hand side of the rack), a 12Vdc voltage
monitoring relay (MUS12DC) monitors the voltage level supplied to the converter
and cuts off use in the following conditions:
Overvoltage mode: If the voltage monitored exceeds the set threshold for a time
exceeding the set time (Tt = 0.1 to 10 s), the relay opens and the "R" indicator lamp
goes out (DI1 of T200 is activated). As soon as the voltage becomes lower than the
Installation of auxiliary power supply option in T200E value of the threshold minus the hysteresis, the relay closes instantly.
Voltage low mode: If the voltage monitored falls below the set threshold for a
time exceeding the time set on the front panel (Tt = 0.1 to 10 s), the relay opens
and the "R" indicator lamp goes out (DI1 of the T200 is deactivated). As soon as the
voltage becomes higher than the value of the threshold plus the hysteresis, the
relay closes instantly.
Settings:
3 settings are available on the relay:
The high or low voltage threshold value is set by potentiometer "U" graduated by
direct reading of the voltage to be monitored.

24 NT00114-EN-07
Commissioning GPS synchronization setting
In standard configuration, the T200's time can be set manually by the user or by
synchronization from a PC connected to the T200.
This module allows the equipment to time stamp events precisely, without internal
clock time drift.
The supply for this kit includes a GPS card, installed in factory on the COM card of
the T200 (slot S5) and a GPS antenna with a cable 5m long.
On option, an antenna extension cable 10m long is available.
Operating principle
The T200 is synchronized every second automatically from the GPS network,
provided that the satellite signal reception levels are adequate.
The T200 can receive information from at most 14 satellites at the same time.
The larger the number of satellites, the more precise will be the measurements
based on the GPS signals.
Upon initialization of the COM card, the minimum time for satisfactory reception of
the GPS satellite signals ranges between 5 min. and 15 min. (it depends on the
quality of the signals received).
Events specific to the GPS function are generated by the COM card (in the
Metal plate support
"System" log) so as to provide information concerning the operating status of the
GPS module:
GPS antenna - "GPS started"
- "GPS synchronization OK"
- "GPS synchronization lost"
MV/LV substation Comment: When the GPS option is present, it takes priority over SNTP time
synchronization or manual time synchronization.
T200
Antenna mounting:
On request for this option, the T200 is supplied with a GPS signal acquisition card.
This card is installed in factory on slot "S5" of the COM card.
Note: The synchronization by GPS option can be installed only on a "full" type COM
card.
For the GPS option to operate, it is necessary to install the GPS antenna outside
the enclosure, on a horizontal metal mounting (the antenna being magnetized), in a
Installation of the GPS antenna location where the GPS signals may not be disturbed by nearby obstacles that
could act as a screen (wall, building, etc.).
The GPS sensor should be installed so as to have a free field around it, so as to
receive the satellite signals correctly. (e.g. roof of the substation where the T200 is
located: see drawing opposite).
The GPS antenna can withstand a temperature range of: -40°C / +85°C.
NT00114-EN-07 25
Commissioning GPS synchronization setting
When the GPS signals are detected at a sufficient level, the "Clock synchronized by
GPS" display appears in the Maintenance/Clock page of the embedded Web server
of the T200 and the configuration/monitoring parameters related to this option are
displayed (see image below).
When the GPS signals are detected at a sufficient level, it is then no longer possible
to configure the PC time and date manually. The GPS card automatically takes
control of time setting for the device and also overrides time setting by SNTP (if the
latter is present).
For correct operation, the GPS option requires configuration of the following
parameters:
- Time zone: In the proposed drop-down list choose the zone corresponding to
the local time zone (closest city having the same time zone).
- Adjust the clock for automatic observation of summer time: Check the
box "Adjust clock for automatic summer time adjustment" if the T200 is to
perform automatic time setting of the clock for changes related to the transition
to summer time and winter time.
- Save Time Zone information: Click on this button to accept changes in the
configuration.

satellites, namely:
Comment: The GPS position data appear in the page only when time
synchronization is performed with the satellites.
26 NT00114-EN-07
Commissioning GPS synchronization setting
- Channels 1 to 14: The T200 assigns a channel number for each satellite
detected.
Comment: The colour of display of each line makes it possible to know the state of
the GPS connection:
Grey colour: no connection or connection in progress
Orange colour: connection performed but not finalized or with mediocre
reception level but sufficient for synchronization.
Green colour: Connection performed with very good reception level.
Red colour: Reception level too weak, no connection possible.
- Signal quality: Value displayed in dBHz allowing assessment of the quality of the
signal level received for each satellite.
Level ≥ 45 dBHz: Very good reception level
At least two satellites in reception are required (with reception level ≥ 45 dB) for
time synchronization and position locating (longitude and latitude) to be operational
on the T200.
The larger the number of satellites, the more precise will be the measurements
based on the GPS signals.
NT00114-EN-07 27
Commissioning Ethernet interface
The T200 incorporates an SNTP client. It allows the time on the internal clock of the T200
to be set automatically from a network synchronization server, when T200 is connected to
this network.
Operating principle
The T200 includes the capability for defining 2 different SNTP servers, one main server
and one auxiliary server, each being on different networks.
When the "Polling period" time delay configured has expired, the T200 sends a request to
the main SNTP server.
If the T200 receives a synchronization from the main SNTP server, the time on the latter is
set and the synchronization cycle is completed.
If the T200 obtains no response from the main SNTP server after the end of delay "Max.
server response time" has elapsed, the T200 attempts a new connection again.
If the "Number of reconnection attempts" is reached, the T200 tries to become
synchronized with the auxiliary SNTP server.
The cycle ends once the T200U has been synchronized with the second server or when it
reaches the "Number of reconnection attempts".
Configuration parameters:
• SNTP server and auxiliary SNTP server: IP address of the main and auxiliary
SNTP servers.
Note: When the address is set to "0.0.0.0", the synchronization by SNTP function is
deactivated on the server.
• Synchronization period: Allows the time synchronization period to be defined via
the SNTP server. Configurable from 1 to 300 seconds.
• Number of reconnection attempts: Upon failure of synchronization with the server,
max. number of attempts to be made.
• Last SNTP synchronization: Indication of the time and date of the last SNTP
synchronization performed (consultation exclusively).
• SNTP server gateway and auxiliary SNTP gateway: Address of the gateway for
access to the main and auxiliary SNTP servers.
• Max. server response time: Maximum time waiting for the reply from the SNTP
server before making a further attempt at synchronization.
• Period of validity of the clock: Time after which the T200 must be resynchronized
with the SNTP server.

Interface Ethernet :
• MAC address: Unique identification address for each T200, set in factory.
(Consultation exclusively)
• DHCP: Defines whether the router of the Ethernet local area network can allocate a
new IP address to the T200 automatically upon a new connection. It is recommended
not to activate this function or else you could no longer be able to log on to the T200
if the modified address is not known.
• IP address: Base IP address of the T200 (as standard: 172.16.0.5).
• Sub-network mask: The mask defines the possibility of configuration of the IP
address on the Ethernet network. For each IP address field, (0) means authorization
of 255 values and (255) means fixed value for this field.
(As standard: 255.255.255.0)
• Gateway addresses: IP address of the server's Ethernet gateway. The gateway
centralizes all the network IP accesses (as standard: 172.16.0.1).
• Primary DNS server: IP address of the primary DNS server (Domain Name Server).
The DNS enables the IP addresses to be associated with the website names (as
standard: 172.16.0.1).
• Secondary DNS server: IP address of the secondary DNS server (Domain Name
Server). Backup DNS server (as standard: 0.0.0.0).

Commissioning Save/Restore configuration
The T200 can save in file form all the configurable parameters of the equipment (except
the parameters of the "IP parameters" page which remain specific to each equipment
item).
This file can then be used for downloading to other equipment of the same type, thus
enabling the T200 to be configured automatically without needing to redo the entire
configuration manually, which would be rather onerous.
However, the parameters specific to each T200 must then be personalized (e.g. protocol
address, fault detection thresholds, etc.).
The "Maintenance/Backup-Restoral" page provides access to backup/restoral resources.
You should therefore proceed in two stages to load a configuration file coming from an old
software version on a T200 containing a recent software version of the V4.xx or upper
type:
1. Load the old configuration file on equipment incorporating an equivalent software
version (e.g. V2.5x for V2.yx versions and V3.5x for V3.yx versions, with y is lower
than 5).
2. Save the configuration in file form (choice of format: without extension or *.zip).
3. Load software version V4.xx or upper on this equipment.
4. Load the configuration file saved previously.
5. Save the configuration.
6. The file obtained will then be compatible with recent software (V4.xx or upper, V2.5x
or V3.5x).
Note: The file obtained will no longer be compatible with the old software (versions
below V2.50 or V3.50). If the software version has not been updated on all the
T200's, it is therefore wise to keep both types of backup (old and new).

Commissioning Dummy control
This option allows remote simulation, from the Supervisor, of an opening or closing
remote control action on the T200.
The aim is to verify protocol exchanges between the T200 and the Supervisor by
sending a double telecontrol, but without risk of really actuating a switch, because
the command is executed only on a fictitious device installed on the COM card
("Dummy Control" module).
Display of the position of the fictitious "Dummy
Control" device in the "Monitoring" page of the Web This option requires addition of the "Dummy Control" module on the COM card on
server. the port 1 slot used for transmission to the Supervisor.
No specific parameters setup is necessary to use this option. The COM card
automatically detects the presence of this module on port 1.
Configuration of the T200 must nevertheless be provided for to use the Dummy
Control option. This option can be activated (on port 1 of the COM card) by the
"OFF line" configuration (available on the Easergy CD supplied with the T200 folder
"Tools\OFF-Line Configurator"), by generating a configuration file and loading it on
the T200.

Commissioning Communication configuration
The parameters present in the configuration pages for ports 1 and 2 take into
account the type of medium that has been selected, because each type of medium
has specific configuration parameters.
The configuration page for protocol parameters may take also into account certain
parameters related to the type of medium selected.
Comment: The protocol parameters related to the type of medium will be described
in this chapter. The other parameters related to the protocol will not be described in
detail, however. For more information concerning the latter, refer to the User's
Manual for the protocol.
Objective of this page: Activate the transmission ports and select the type of modem
to be used and how it will be managed (up to two communication ports available).
The parameters for this page can be consulted and/or modified depending on the
user profile.
Mode: Allows choice (or merely gives an indication depending on the protocol)
of the transmission mode used for dialogue with the SCADA system.
Depending on the protocol used, there is a choice between one of the two
modes mentioned below. Some protocols are fixed from the transmission
mode viewpoint and do not allow this choice.
In that case, the T200 proposes merely an indication, with no possibility of
modification:
32 NT00114-EN-07
Commissioning Communication configuration
Link: Allows definition of the way in which the ports will be managed according
to one of the following modes:
Off: No transmission over this channel.
Normal: Main transmission channel to the SCADA system. Two
"Normal" channels with the same protocol but with different
characteristics (e.g. type of transmission) can be used if there are two
remote control systems (main and maintenance). The T200 cannot
manage simultaneous remote controls coming from the two systems.
Balanced – Normal/Standby: Two channels are necessary in this
mode. The operation of the channels is symmetric. In the event of a
fault on the channel in service, switchover to the other channel takes
place automatically.
Main – Normal/ Standby: Requires another channel as " Standby –
Normal/Standby". Same operation as "Balanced" but with priority use
of the main channel.
Standby – Normal/ Standby: Requires another channel as "Main –
Normal/Standby". Same operation as "Balanced" but with use of the
backup channel if failure of the Main channel. A configurable option
can be used to define a priority return to the main channel if the latter
becomes available again.
Store & Forward: Function used only in radio mode. In addition to the
normal channel function of transmission to the SCADA system, this
channel is also used for relaying to an auxiliary T200 located within
reach of transmission and which is not accessible by any other means.
From the page: "Settings/Operating mode" Test: (in radio mode only). Allows a fixed frequency to be generated on
the radio network to allow antenna installation adjustment operations or
level measurements on fields received on another T200 within reach of
the first.
Note: Depending on the protocol, all the operating modes of the ports
mentioned above are not necessarily available.

Commissioning Communication configuration
When the "Normal/Standby" mode is configured as link type on ports 1 and 2, the
"Quality of transmission parameters" section becomes accessible in the "Operating
modes" page and the corresponding parameters can be configured.
Excerpted from the page: "Configuration/Operating This mode requires the use of two communication channels (ports 1 and 2) to

Diagnostic:
For each port, the T200 gives information concerning the number of valid frames
sent and received and a quality percentage relative to the number of frames
handled.
34 NT00114-EN-07
Commissioning Communication configuration
The Store & Forward function allows a T200 to serve as a radio relay for another
distant T200 which cannot be accessed directly by the Supervisor due to access
problems. The Distant T200 must be within transmission range of the first T200
acting as relay (Repeater T200).
Upon detecting a message which is not addressed to it, the Repeater T200 resends
Excerpted from the page: "Configuration/Operating it over the same channel so as to reroute it toward the T200 for which the message
modes" is destined.
Three types of T200 can be managed in the "Store & Forward" mode:
- Standard T200: This is a conventional T200. It can communicate directly with the
control centre without going the through Repeater T200. This T200 must be
configured with "Normal" link type.
Repeater T200 - Repeater T200: This will act as relay for other T200s which cannot communicate
directly with the Supervisor. This T200 must be configured with "Store & Forward"
link type.
- Distant T200: This is a distant T200 which cannot communicate directly with the
Supervisor Distant T200 Supervisor and which will use the Repeater T200 as communication gateway to be
able to communicate with the Supervisor.
Obstacle This T200 must be configured with "Normal" link type.
Specifications
The Repeater T200 uses the same port (and hence the same radio) to
communicate with the Supervisor and with the Distant T200s.
Scada end link address: This is the address that will have to be defined at the
Supervisor end to access the Distant T200. This address must be configured
identically in the Repeater T200. This address is used only for the Supervisor-
Repeater T200 connection.
Distant T200 end link address: This is the address that will have to be
configured on the Distant T200 and also identically in the Repeater T200. This
address is used only for the Repeater T200-Distant T200 connection.
The Repeater T200 has its specific link address so that the latter may be used as
a mere Standard T200 in addition to the Repeater function.
NT00114-EN-07 35
Commissioning Communication configuration
Operation
When the Supervisor wants to communicate with one of the Distant T200s, the
latter sends a protocol frame containing the link address of the Distant T200 to be
accessed.
The Repeater T200 receives this frame and sees that the address was not destined
for it but that it corresponds to the address of one of the Distant T200s defined in its
Supervisor Repeater T200 Distant T200 list of 10 Distant terminals.
Address A Address B The Repeater T200 sends back a frame to the corresponding Distant T200,
Address A Address B
replacing the link address with that which has been defined for it in its list for this
Distant T200.
The Distant T200 receives the frame and replies to the request with a frame
Substitution principe of adresses link : containing the link address that is specific to it.
In blue color : message including address used by the
Supervisor for accessing Distant T200 (e.g. : address A) The Repeater T200 receives the reply and sends a frame back to the Supervisor
In red color : : message including address used by the according to the same principle of replacement of the link address between that
Repeater for accessing Distant T200 (e.g. : address B) used by the Distant T200 and that used by the Supervisor.
Note: When a Master/Master type link is used, the Distant T200 can initiate
communication to send an alarm. The transmission principle remains the same.
2°) The Repeater function of the T200 uses only a single transmission port. Radio
traffic over this channel is therefore fairly substantial due to the numerous
messages to be re-transmitted at the Distant T200 end and the Supervisor end.
Message collisions and repetitions must therefore be expected on the radio traffic.
3°) The handling of messages received by the Repeater T200 is treated as a whole.
The Repeater T200 will end retransmission of the message to be handled to the
Supervisor and the Distant T200 before being able to receive and handle other
messages. This constraint may result in repetition phenomena on devices other
than the Repeater T200.
4°) It should be borne in mind that if a Repeater T200 can no longer transmit for
whatsoever reason, all the Distant T200s will be affected by this non-
communication.
5°) The quality of the radio link largely depends on the efficiency of the collision
avoidance function. This function gives good results if the information giving the
busy state of the wireless network is reliable. Now, because the Distant T200s can
pick up frames sent by other T200s, the occupancy state of the wireless network
may be not as efficient as normally. The functioning of the Repeater system may be
degraded for this reason.

The parameters of this page depend entirely on the type of protocol used.
Detailed explanations concerning this page will therefore not be given in this
manual.
Refer to the protocol User Manual for details concerning configuration of the
parameters of this page.
Note that certain parameters of this page depend on the type of modems installed
on the ports.
For example, the "Collision Avoidance Parameters" section (see image below) is
displayed in this page only when a Radio or PSTN modem (internal or external) is
configured on the COM card.

Commissioning Communication configuration
The parameters display for this page depends on the type of modem installed on
the port of the COM card (port 1 or port 2) and on the transmission medium chosen
in the "Settings/Operating Mode" page.
Configuration procedure:
The T200 is factory-delivered with a default configuration corresponding to the type
of modem installed on the COM card (internal modem) or on the sliding plate of the
enclosure (external modem).
The user should then (if need be) adjust the parameters of this page (in particular
the modem management signals and associated time delays) depending on what is
required for the modems used or possibly the transmission network.
The following timing diagram shows the management signals involved during
communication between the T200 modem and the interface or the external radio, or
even directly with the control centre.

38 NT00114-EN-07
Commissioning Communication configuration
Squelch: This signal is used only in radio mode to indicate to the T200 the
occupancy state of the radio network.
We give below the list of configurable options concerning these modem management
signals. Configuration is performed in the pages for ports 1 and 2 of the T200 Web
server:
• Delay before response: After receiving a message, this is the waiting time
before sending the message (response). This delay serves to avoid any
overlapping of signals between the message received and the message sent.
This delay is often used with a radio medium or with certain modems which
require a time lag to turn around, i.e. a minimum time to go from receive mode
to send mode.
♦ DTR management: If this option is selected, the DTR signal will be managed
during transmission exchanges with the modem.
• DTR - RTS delay (if RTS used):
♦ RTS management: If this option is selected, the RTS signal will be managed
during transmission exchanges with the modem.
♦ CTS management If this option is selected, the CTS signal will be managed
during transmission exchanges with the modem.
♦ RTS - CTS delay (if CTS used): This is the maximum time during which the
T200 waits for the CTS after the RTS has been activated. If, after this delay,
CTS has not become active, the T200 discontinues sending the frame.
• RTS (or CTS) delay - Message (if RTS or CTS used): This is the time between
transition to the active state of RTS (or CTS if this signal is used) and the start
of message sending. Typically this time lag is used to wait for a stable carrier
period established by the modem.
If necessary, when CTS is not available, the time for installation of the carrier to
solve the problem posed by the non-availability of this signal can be added to
this delay. Likewise, if the DTR and RTS commands are common, the time for
rise in power of the sender can be added.
NT00114-EN-07 39
Commissioning Communication configuration
♦ Message - RTS delay (if RTS used): This is the minimum time to be waited,
after sending a message, before causing RTS and DTR (or Send command) to
fall again. This delay prevents the end of the message from being truncated by
the premature fall of modem sending.
40 NT00114-EN-07
Commissioning Communication configuration
♦ Dialing type: Choice of the type of dialling to be used for the telephone
call to the Supervisor during an alarm sequence.
There are two possible choices: pulse (decimal) and multifrequency (MF).
Note: Configuration available in PSTN but not in GSM.
NB: The Modem Init sequence is sent to the modem only after initialization
of the T200 COM card (following a reset or power up of the T200). After
changing the Init sequence, you must remember to reinitialize the COM
card for it to be taken into account by the modem.
♦ Host tel number (main): Main phone number that the T200 uses to call
the Supervisor during an alarm sequence.
The T200 will try to call three times on this "normal" number before
switching to the "Backup" number.
Note: A space must be inserted between the "T" or "P" and the call
number.

♦ Polarization: Activates line polarization at the T200 end. The RS485 line
should be polarized at one termination, generally at the Master end.
♦ End-of-line resistance: Activates the load résistance at the T200 end.
The RS485 line should be loaded at both its terminations.
♦ Line type: Choice of type of transmission used: 2-wire or 4-wire.
The only way to know the IP address of the T200 in this case is to log on locally
(on site) to the embedded Web server of the T200 via an USB access, which is
hardly possible because that would imply going to the site for each enclosure
each time an IP address is reassigned.
Example: "HTTP server" port N°80 is not open for the operator "Orange". A port
number greater than 1024 should be configured on the T200 to have an open
port from this operator.

Commissioning Communication configuration
♦ Access Point Name (APN): Access Point Name. Name of the access point for
connection to the GPRS/3G network. This name is generally given by the
operator who provides access to the GPRS/3G network.
(e.g. "internet-entreprise" for the operator Orange).
The "Daily disconnection" option has therefore been provided to play this role
and thus allow T200 disconnection from the GPRS/3G network to be forced
automatically so as to reconnect it immediately afterward. This disconnection
can be programmed for a fixed time each day by means of the "Disconnection
time" setting.
This system works, but has the disadvantage that in the worst case scenario the
T200 may remain for at most 24 hours without any real connection to the
network (case of a brief network failure occurring just after the daily
disconnection time).
♦ Specific ping IP address: The ping in theory makes it possible to verify and
measure the quality of the equipment's connection with another device
connected to the IP network.
This configurable parameter can determine to what IP address will be sent the
packet corresponding to the ping allowing this quality to be measured.
Configure, for example, a known Web server IP address or possibly that of the
supervisor, provided that the latter incorporate a known fixed IP address.
The configured address must correspond to a standard IP address format, i.e.
be in the form of four values of at most three digits separated by a dot (e.g.
192.168.2.101).
NT00114-EN-07 45
Commissioning Communication configuration
To avoid this drawback, the regular ping test is used to prevent disconnection of
the T200 when the problem is exclusively due to the Supervisor and not to a
network problem. In other words, if the T200 is still connected to the GPRS/3G
network, there is no reason to disconnect it because of a non-existent IP
protocol flow.
As soon as a ping address has been configured in this field, the T200 will try
every 4 minutes (“Ping time interval”) to send a ping to the specified IP address.
Accordingly, an IP data flow will return to the T200 and the latter will not cut off
the connection to the network.
If the result of the ping test is satisfactory, the T200 will remain connected to the
network, because it knows that it is available. The T200 will then do nothing in
particular except for the next ping test following the next 4 minutes elapsed.
If the result of the ping test is unsatisfactory, after an extra minute the T200,
seeing no IP data flow for the last 5 min., will disconnect from the network
automatically (modem reset), and then try (after the end of modem initialization)
to reconnect to the network again.
If the network is still not available, the T200 will again request the modem to
reinitialize immediately, and this indefinitely until the next detection of the
network.
This phase of initialization and reconnection to the network requires
approximately 1 min. for the GPRS/3G modem (see enclosed diagram).
If the ping address is set to "0.0.0.0" (default value), the regular ping test is
deactivated.
Note: The regular (or manual) ping test sends to the specified IP address the
smallest possible number of data packets (equivalent to 0 byte), to avoid
causing the extra cost of an IP data flow transfer.

Commissioning Configuration of switch controls
Reminder: The "Standard" configuration applies to the main switches used with the
T200 such as SM6 or RM6.
The principle of an order on the switch is to activate the switch control signal (24V
or 48V polarity depending on the model) for a determined time (Operating time
parameter).
With "Standard" control, the duration of the order is therefore fixed by this time
delay and does not depend on the time taken by the switch to change position.
The Open and Closed switch position inputs are read constantly throughout the
duration of the order with a consistency check so as to update the associated
position TSD variable (see Filtering principle for indication inputs related to remote
controls).
After the control relay has fallen, the order is considered as completed by the T200
when the switch indicates a position in conformity with the order (the TSD is
updated with the new status). The order is considered in error (e.g. external error) if
the position is not in conformity with the requested order or if undefined after a loss
of position filtering time delay (Return position waiting time).

With this type of switch, the principle is to apply the motor control signal until the
requested position is obtained. This control will be maintained only during a
configurable limited period (Return position waiting time parameter), and this in
the event that the position indicated by the TSD variable is not that which is
expected by the T200 (case of degraded control).
With this type of switch, the time for execution of the electrical order therefore
depends exclusively on the time taken by the switch to change position.
The Open and Closed switch statuses are read constantly with a consistency check
so as to update the associated position TSD variable (see Filtering principle for
indication inputs related to remote controls).

Commissioning Automation configuration
For the automatic control to work, the T200 must be provided with the fault current detection
function.
For automatic control to operate on a channel, it must be selected for that channel
(Automatic type parameter).
It is possible to assign the presence of automatic control or not channel by channel.
All the channels of the T200 can be configured with this automatic control or not.
Automatic control can be enabled or disabled, in general on the T200 (TCD 9), remotely from
the Supervisor or locally via the CONTROL panel of the T200.
NB: It is not possible to change the type of automatic control on a channel when the
"automatic control Enabled/Disabled" TSD (TSD 9) is in ON position. It is essential to
return TSD9 to OFF position to be able to change type of automatic control on one of
the channels.
Likewise, it is not possible to send a remote control to the TSD 9 to place it in ON
position, if no automatic control is activated on one of the channels of the
Example of configuration for sectionalizer automatic corresponding CONTROL module.
control (Configuration/Control & Automation page)
Manual control of the switches remains possible in “Local” mode from the CONTROL panel
or in "remote" mode from the Supervisor, even if automatic control is activated in ON
position.
Operation:
In nominal operating conditions, the line is energized and the switch is closed.
The automatic control system sends an opening order to the switch if:
- the switch is closed;
- the counted number of fault currents is reached;
- the current fault has disappeared;
- the MV voltage is not present.
Important note: The "Rapid" fault can be counted as the first fault detected by the T200 if
the time to detect the "slow" fault configured on the T200 is less than the actual time of
presence of the first "rapid" fault or if the actual time of presence of the rapid fault is the same
as that for the slow fault (that depends on the network configuration).

Commissioning Fault detector configuration
The measurement/fault detection function requires the installation, for each channel, of
measurement acquisition modules on the interface card and toroids in the cubicle.
The Measurements/Fault detector page allows the various fault detection thresholds to be
set according to the type of acquisition module installed on T200:
- Current measurement acquisition card (models AC, AS and AH) and its
opening toroids
- Voltage measurement acquisition card (models AT or T200 reference =
"TIxxB-.." or "TExxB-.."
- Digital acquisition card for external detectors (model AD).
The T200 detects the type of module installed and automatically proposes the configuration
associated with that type of module.

for voltage fault detection (monitoring page) Conversion of current measurements to voltage:
By default, the T200 is designed to operate for current measurements. However, it is
possible to configure voltage measurements in place of current measurements on one or
more channels of the equipment.
Note that the two types of measurement (current and voltage) are not possible
simultaneously on a given channel.
The current to voltage conversion operation requires configuring certain variables of the
T200.
The procedure below explains how to carry out this conversion on a channel of the T200.
The operation of course impacts the related measurement and fault detection.
Note: With a single phase option measurement, voltage measurement is configured in
factory on the latest channel of the equipment (factory standard).
Note: The maximum voltage that can be displayed in the monitoring page is 32767 V, even if
the real network voltage exceeds this value.

it was set to "Direct", change it to "Direct*100." (*)
3) Change the "Unit" field from "A" to "V"
4) Change the "Max. value" field to "32000"
TSS 18 therefore plays a role of power supply undervoltage signal filtering. The purpose of
this filtering is not to send too many successive alarms to the Supervisor whenever TSS17
changes state, following regular MV network failures (e.g. during circuit-breaker reset cycles).
It is therefore preferable to use the alarms on the TSS18 rather than on the TSS17 in some
Main power supply failure
cases.

Commissioning Variable configuration
The T200 Web server provides access to all the variables defined by default on the
T200.
The level of access to a variable (visible in read-only mode, accessible in write
mode, not visible) depends on how the variables have been configured.
The parameters for this page can be consulted and/or modified depending on the
user profile.
With the factory settings, you must be an administrator to be able to change the
level of access to a variable.
In each class, a number of variables of several different types are found ("type"
column).
Variable types:
The variables break down into several types presented in the table below.
In the standard version it is not possible add extra variables to those already
Different types of variable existing on T200I created as standard.
Note: However, when the "local Modbus network" option is present in the
equipment, it is possible to add variables corresponding to this option (see "local
Modbus network" User Manual for more information).
Variable addresses:
All the variables can be configured with an external address. This external address
allows the variable to be made accessible in read or write mode from the Supervisor
by means of the protocol used for transmission.
A variable which has no address configured (address = "-") will not be accessible
from the Supervisor.
The values of the addresses configured depend on the type of protocol used.
Note: Refer to the user manual for the protocol installed on the T200 for more
information concerning the addressing tables related to this protocol.
Example of configuration with or without event and
alarm saving
NT00114-EN-07 61
Commissioning Variable configuration
Saving variables:
T200 included a number of logs allowing archiving of events of various types (event
log, alarm log, measurement log).
The logs can be accessed by the user via the embedded Web server ("Diagnostic"
page).
All the variables can be configured separately with or without being saved as a
measurement (if it is a measurement), event or alarm in these logs.
Note: The system log, for its part, does not take into account variable changes of
state but rather information concerning the internal operation of the equipment.
Since protocol events are not configurable, we shall speak in the remainder of the
chapter only of configuration of the events associated with the local logs.
For each type of variable, it is possible to choose how to process the variable for its
associated saving (with alarm or not, criterion for saving in an internal log).
The following table summarizes how to save these events for each type of variable.
This table is valid for each type of internal log (except the system log).
Event TSS TSD TM CNT Comments
Change of state Saving upon detecting any change of
state of the variable
Upon loss of closing Saving upon detecting the loss of
position of the closed state (although

Commissioning Variable configuration
In the local logs, events are registered with a brief descriptive text corresponding to
the change of state of the variable and a date and time of occurrence saved by the
T200 for locating them in time.
The alarms are therefore valid only for non-permanent type transmission (e.g.
PSTN, GSM, Radio), i.e. for types of transmission which require a deliberate
interrogation action by the Supervisor.
Note that the "Alarm configuration" section is displayed in the configuration page for
the variable only if the protocol is configured as Master/Master and if at least one of
the communication ports is of the non-permanent type.
In PSTN or GSM, the T200 attempts to join the Supervisor three times on the main
telephone number, then if this fails makes three further attempts on the backup
telephone number. If the call still does not get through, the calls are stopped unless
a new alarm occurs, which reinitiates the call sequence from the normal number.
The call sequences take into account the time delays configured in the "Protocol"
page (refer to the Protocol manual for more details).
In radio mode, the T200 attempts to send a frame over the radio network to the
Supervisor to retransmit the change of state information. If the call does not get
through, the T200 attempts to call the Supervisor indefinitely without any restriction
regarding the number of attempts. The call sequences take into account the time
delays configured in the "Protocol" page. It is recommended not to configure
excessively short time delays so as not to mobilize the radio network constantly
(refer to the Protocol manual for more details).
In all cases, receipt of the event triggering an alarm by the SCADA system causes
acknowledgement of the alarm.
If the alarm information does not reach the Supervisor, no acknowledgement is
performed.
NB: This box is checked by the T200 only for alarm retransmissions on non-
permanent links. This is not managed for permanent links.

General
The equipment does not require regular maintenance.
The integrated battery test keeps users informed of the battery availability status.
Note: Replacement fuses are provided in the “accessories” bag attached inside the
basic enclosure.
The T200 has certain tools to perform maintenance or fault finding on the
equipment.
This requires a PC-compatible microcomputer with Internet Explorer (or an
equivalent software) installed. It is then possible to read the internal states of the
equipment and the events stored in memory by the T200 (see also section on
Commissioning).
The tools available for maintenance and fault finding are as follows:
Monitoring page
The screen on the left represents an example of a 4-channel Easergy T200 I, with
internal fault detection option.
This menu allows viewing of all the states and information managed by the T200:
The switch state; “Open”, “Closed” or “locked”;
Stored fault currents: “I Max.” and “I Max. transient” on each phase;
Current measurement on each phase;
The automatic control status, ON or OFF;
Equipment internal faults;
The operating mode: local or remote;
AC supply OFF, Delayed AC supply OFF;
Digital input status.
Comment: A diagnostic through the state of the indicator lamps on the front panel
is not always adequate to find the cause of a fault. A lit indicator lamp indicates the
presence of a fault, but it is often necessary to consult the logs or the “Monitoring”
page to determine precisely the cause of a fault.

Maintenance CPU card configuration
Software operation:
Modifications to the configuration data can only be taken into account after they
are confirmed in the “Save configuration” field.
Click on “Cancel” to view the previous parameters again.
The area in which the cursor is positioned is highlighted.
- The “arrow keys” and the “tab” key are used to move from one data entry field
to another.
A highlighted area can be selected by pressing “Enter” or the “Space bar”.
A parameter value can be modified via:
the “+” key or the “Space bar” to increase the value;
the “–” key to reduce the value.
Press “Alt” and “F4” simultaneously to exit the main menu.
Configure the CPU card number in the "Card number" field depending on the
CONTROL module, on which the CPU card depends, that is to be configured:
- CONTROL module controlling channels 1 to 4: number = 1
- CONTROL module controlling channels 5 to 8: number = 2
- CONTROL module controlling channels 9 to 12: number = 3
- CONTROL module controlling channels 13 to 16: number = 4
84 NT00114-EN-07
Maintenance CPU card configuration
Note: After saving the configuration, if "Bad card number" appears on the first line
of the menu, this means that an incorrect number has been configured or there is a
gap in the card numbers (e.g. No. 1 and 3 configured but number 2 missing).
NB: If two CONTROL modules have been configured with the same number, the
T200 will not be able to operate correctly, because the COM card will detect an
internal Modbus address conflict.
The red "Fault" indicator lamp on the COM card of the T200 will then light to
indicate the occurrence of a configuration problem.
