CHAPTER 6: ACTUAL VALUES A3 EVENT RECORDER
745 TRANSFORMER PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 6–19
The event record runs continuously, capturing and storing conditions present at the
moment of occurrence of the last 256 events, as well as the time and date of each event.
The header message for each event contains two pieces of information: the event number
(higher numbers denote more recent events) and the event date. If the event record is clear
or if the date has never been programmed, “Unavailable” is displayed instead of a date. No
more than 256 events are stored at the same time.
Pickup events are not recorded for elements that operate instantaneously (for example,
percent differential, instantaneous differential, etc.). Also, elements that have operate
times set to 0.00 seconds will not log pickup events. If the operate delay is set higher than
0.00, then the event recorder logs both the pickup and the operate events.
Test Mode 2 event is recorded for serial port command, using DNP protocol, to perform
cold restart. Test Mode 3 event is recorded for serial port command to perform firmware
upload.
Diagnostic message 1 is caused when 745 detects transients inside the 745, or when the
745 is affected by signalling faults on RS485.
