2.3.8 Communications fail mode
The Communications Fail Mode is used to select the channel(s) responsible for raising the
communication alarm when configured for dual redundant communications. Three options
are available: ‘Ch 1 Failure’, ‘Ch 2 Failure’, Ch1 or Ch 2 Fail’ and Ch1 and Ch 2 Fail’. If ‘Ch
1 Failure’ is selected, the communication alarm will only be raised if channel 1 has failed. If
‘Ch 2 Failure’ is selected, the communication alarm will only be raised if channel 2 has failed.
If ‘Ch 1 or Ch 2 Fail’ is selected, the communication alarm will be raised if either channel has
failed.
2.3.9 MiCOM P594 global positioning system (GPS) synchronizing module
MiCOM P54x
Current Differential relays can use a satellite-derived one pulse per second
synchronizing signal via a MiCOM P594 GPS Module.
A separate technical guide (P594 EN M) is available in support of this device, and should be
consulted for operational details.
