As Figure 3.26 shows, received 87DTT bits are available as Relay Word bits.
If any active channel receives the 87DTT bit, the direct transfer tripping is
enabled via the E87DTT SEL
OGIC control equation, and the relay is not in the
stub bus mode, the 87DTTRX Relay Word bit will assert to operate the trip
logic. The 87DTTRX bit asserts instantaneously if the disturbance detection
provides validation or after 0.75-cycle delay if the disturbance detector fails to
pick up.
The combination of disturbance detection supervision and time delay makes
the 87DTT application very secure against undetected bit errors in the
received 87L packets. Received 87DTT bits must be validated with the change
in local currents, or at least three consecutive packets must show the 87DTT
bit asserted. With the 32-bit BCH protecting the integrity of each packet (see
87L Theory of Operation for more details), it becomes unlikely beyond any
practical concern that three consecutive packets will spuriously assert the
87DTT bit and the BCH check will fail three times to detect such spurious
assertion.
Program E87DTT to 1 in three-terminal applications (E87CH = 3SS or 3SM).
3SM cases only apply in the event of a failed communications channel
between two of the relays.
You can dynamically inhibit 87DTT by programming the E87DTT SEL
OGIC
control equation if channel quality becomes problematic, such as might
happen if the lost packet count or other impairments are beyond expected
values.
You can also use one of the user-programmable 87L communications bits to
program custom 87DTT logic if necessary (see User-Programmable 87L
Communications Bits for more details).
