Functional Test Protection Communication
Checking the Protection-Data Communication
Checking the Protection-Data Communication
If the devices are connected to one another via the protection interface and switched on, they contact each
other automatically. If, for example, device 1 recognizes device 2, the successful connection is indicated (see
next figure). Accordingly, each device signals to all devices that aProtection-data communication is available.

Connection Establishment in DIGSI 5
Proper communication of the devices among each other can be supervised during operation.

Check the connections for each protection interface in DIGSI 5.
If a connection is successfully established, the Status of topo recog. field shows the indication
valid
in DIGSI
5 (see Figure 11-11).
If 2 devices are parameterized incorrectly, the Status of topo recog. field shows the indication
invalid
(see
Figure 11-11).
In Figure 11-12 there is no protection-data communication between device 1 and device 2, that is, the protec-
tion interfaces 1 and 2 of device 1 do not receive data. The transmission of protection data is interrupted and
differential protection is ineffective. One reason for this can be a remote control with DIGSI via the protection
interface. In this case, the protection connection is interrupted and the connection is used exclusively for
DIGSI.
