DEVICE CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS Default Screens The 8 Series relay provides the convenience of configuring and displaying up to three default screens from a predefined list. The user selects each type of screen to display, and programs the display time. The sequence of displaying the screens starts after the time of inactivity programmed in the Message Timeout time setpoint: no PB has been pressed, no target message is present.
CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS DEVICE Installation Path: Setpoints > Device > Installation DEVICE NAME Range: Up to 13 alphanumeric characters An alphanumeric name may be assigned to the device. DEVICE IN SERVICE Default: Not Ready Range: Not Ready, Ready The relay is defaulted to the “Not Ready” state when it leaves the factory. This safeguards against the installation of a relay whose settings have not been entered.
CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS SYSTEM Current Sensing The Current Sensing menu provides the setup menu for the Current Transformers (CTs) connected to the 869 terminals. The setup of the three-phase CTs, and the Ground CT requires a selection of primary CT ratings. The secondary CT ratings are selected in the 869 Order code.
SYSTEM CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS Voltage Sensing The Voltage Sensing menu provides the setup for all VTs (PTs) connected to the relay voltage terminals. The 869 can be connected to 4 VTs, i. e. three-phase VTs from either a Wye (Star) or a Delta connection, and one auxiliary VT.
CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS SYSTEM For example, on a system of 13.8kV nominal primary voltage, and a 14400:120 volt VT in a Delta connection, the secondary voltage would be 115V, i.e. (13800/14400)*120. For a Wye connection, the voltage value entered must be the phase to neutral voltage which would be 115/√3 = 66.4 V.

Page 188
SYSTEM CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS SPEED2 SWITCH 2-1 DELAY Range: 0.00 to 600.00 s in steps of 0.01 s Default: 5.00 s This setting specifies the time delay to transfer from high to low speed. This allows the motor to slow down before energizing at low speed. When the motor is switched from high speed to low speed, the Speed2 Trans 2-1 Op FlexLogic operand is set for time defined by the Speed2 Switch 2-1 Delay setting to allow inputs for control logic of contactors and breakers at both speeds.
CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS SYSTEM Variable Frequency Path: Setpoints > System > Motor > VFD Drives Some Variable Frequency Drives (VFD), for example pulse width modulated drives, generate significant distortion in voltages introducing harmonics. However, distortion due to these harmonics is not as significant in currents as in voltages. The functionality of various 869 protection elements is made adaptive to the VFD motor applications depending on the system configurations.
Page 190
SYSTEM CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS However, this filter when used for the VFD motor application running at low frequency results in a very long Trip/Alarm times delay. For example: if setpoint Motor Load Filter Interval is set 10 cycles and motor is running at 20Hz (tracking frequency), then the Trip/ Alarm delay is increased by 0.5 sec.
Page 191
CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS SYSTEM Analyze the captured waveform in Step 4 to see if the estimate value from Step 2 is appropriate enough to mitigate the oscillations. If needed, repeat Steps 1-4 in order to achieved the appropriate value of the setpoint “Motor Load Filter Interval” until oscillations become negligible.

CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS FLEXLOGIC FLEXLOGIC EVALUATION Each equation is evaluated in the order in which the parameters have been entered. FlexLogic™ provides latches which by definition have a memory action, remaining in the set state after the set input has been asserted. However, they are volatile; that is, they reset on the re-application of control power.
FLEXLOGIC CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS Non-volatile Latches The purpose of a Non-volatile Latch is to provide a permanent logical flag that is stored safely and does not reset when the relay reboots after being powered down. Typical applications include sustaining operator commands or permanently blocking relay functions such as Autorecloser, until a deliberate HMI action resets the latch.
