11 Appendix
The following configuration settings relate to the RCU.
11.1 Site Specific Settings
These settings will have to be provided for each site. They are included in the RCU
Configuration Specification Form (KMS-3100) only for the purpose of selecting the visibility
option for each setting. Otherwise, the specific site data is entered as part of the
commissioning process.
11.1.1 Line Name
For CMR installations, this is an optional setting to describe the stie. For Fusesaver
installations, this setting determines how an RCU will locate and couple with Fusesavers when
turned ON. Two options are available:
1 No Line Name - The line name field is left blank. This method is suitable for sites
with only one set of Fusesavers within range of the RCU per site. Provided that
there is a configured line at that site the RCU will find it and connect to that line.
This is very helpful in minimising configuration problems and also permits testing
an RCU in a workshop with test Fusesavers and then taking it to site to work with
the Fusesavers already installed at site without the need for re-configuration.
2 Named Line – In this case the user configures the RCU to search for a line of a
particular name. This mode must be used when more than one Fusesaver line is
within range of the RCU.
Note
If “No Line Name” is suitable for all sites then the line name
can be hidden in the configuration template to avoid site
errors.
11.1.2 Asset Number
The user can use this optional setting to assign their own internal asset number to the RCU
for this site. This asset number is available for transmission over the SCADA system as a
string (SPID_2). Maximum of 32 characters available.
11.1.3 Serial Numbers
For CMR installations, the RCU is paired to CMR devices based on serial number. Refer to
[3] for pairing details.
If the phase designators of CMR devices need to be changed on site, it is important to turn off
the RCU before commencing this process. Once all CMRs in the installation have their phase
designators updated, the RCU can be turned on, and the serial number settings updated.
11.1.4 Protocol Address
Most SCADA protocols require a unique site address, refer relevant Protocol Manual
Supplement.
11.2 RCU Power Supply Settings
These settings would normally be applied to a population of RCU’s.
