Control Logic via 
CFC  
For the bay interlocking, an enabling logic can be structured using the CFC. Via spe-
cific release conditions the information „released“ or „bay interlocked“ are available, 
e.g. object „52 Close“ and „52 Open“ with the data values: ON / OFF).
2.24.1.4 Recording and Acknowledgement of Commands
During the processing of commands, independently of the further allocation and pro-
cessing of indications, command and process feedbacks are sent to the indication pro-
cessing. These indications contain information on the cause. With the corresponding 
allocation (configuration) these indications are entered in the event log, thus serving 
as a report.
Acknowledgement 
of Commands to 
the Device Front
All indications with the source of command LOCAL are transformed into a correspond-
ing response and shown in the display of the device.
Acknowledgement 
of Commands to 
Local/Remote/
DIGSI       
The acknowledgement of indications which relate to commands with the origin “Com-
mand Issued = Local/ Remote/DIGSI” are sent back to the initiating point independent 
of the routing (configuration on the serial digital interface).
The acknowledgement of commands is therefore not executed by a response indica-
tion as it is done with the local command but by ordinary command and feedback in-
formation recording.
Feedback Monitor-
ing  
Command processing time monitors all commands with feedback. Parallel to the com-
mand, a monitoring time period (command runtime monitoring) is started which 
checks whether the switchgear has achieved the desired final state within this period. 
The monitoring time is stopped as soon as the feedback information arrives. If no feed-
back information arrives, a response „Time Limit Expired“ appears and the 
process is terminated.
Commands and their feedbacks are also recorded as operational indications. Normal-
ly the execution of a command is terminated as soon as the feedback information 
(FB+) of the relevant switchgear arrives or, in case of commands without process 
feedback information, the command output resets.
In the feedback, the plus sign means that a command has been positively completed. 
The command was as expected, in other words positive. The "minus" is a negative 
confirmation and means that the command was not executed as expected.
Command Output / 
Sw itch ing R ela ys  
The command types needed for tripping and closing of the switchgear or for raising 
and lowering transformer taps have been defined during the configuration, see also
