To get up to 6 additional binary inputs and 6 binary outputs one SICAM I/O-Unit
7XV5673-0JJ00-1AA1 is connected via a double screened CAT5 patch cable (1:1 or crossed over)
directly to the protection device (e.g. 7SJ80x / Port A).
To get up to 12 additional binary inputs and 12 binary outputs two SICAM I/O-Units 7XV5673 and an
additional Y-Ethernet cable (7KE6000-8GD00-0BA2) are needed.
The protection device is set using DIGSI 4 running on a Notebook via the USB-front interface.
The SICAM I/O-Unit 7XV5673 is set through a Web Browser running on the Notebook via the
Ethernet interface.
Tip: If during commissioning a common switch is temporarily inserted using three or four patch
cables, the protection device can be set from a PC using DIGSI 4 in parallel with the I/O-Unit.

If a SICAM I/O-Unit and a 7SJ80/7SK80 are applied in an existing Ethernet network, a switch that is
suitable for the substation environment (e.g. Scalance X307-2EEC or RUGGEDCOM RS900) must
be used. Switch, SICAM I/O-Unit, protection device and the operating PC make up a sub-net that is
connected via patch cables. DIGSI 4 and a Web browser can run in parallel on the PC. It is therefore
possible to set the I/O-Unit and the protection device in parallel.

Note: The network must be restricted to those devices that are directly communicating with the I/OUnit 7XV5673 or communicate with the protection devices through DIGSI 4.
When setting the parameters of the Ethernet interfaces of all the devices in the network
segment, different IP addresses
within the same address range (e.g.
192.168.10.1 - 254) must be applied.

If the protection device should further be operated via the Ethernet interface, the IP-address of the
notebook must be selected with DIGSI 4 in Configure DIGSI 4, Ethernet
NOTE: From DIGSI 4.82, the IP addresses of all the available Ethernet interfaces of the
PC/notebooks are available for selection in the pull-down menu.
Take Care: If an IP address has not yet been selected, or if the IP address has been changed
(e.g. automatic allocation by DHCP), the input box will be empty.
An IP address must be selected here,
otherwise the operation of the protection device via Ethernet is not possible.

In case the protection device is connected to the notebook either directly via a CAT5 patch cable or
via a switch, all further settings of the protection device can now be applied with DIGSI 4 either
through the USB front port or the bottom Ethernet service interface Port A.
Continue with OK

Select I/O-Unit from Other blocks and drag the block with the left mouse key to the CFC chart.
If you apply two I/O-Units select again an I/O-Unit from Other blocks and drag it to the same
CFC chart.
Select the correct CFC task level and connect the CFC block:
Click the button Run Sequence. Then change the CFC task level by dragging the chart from
MW_BEARB to PLC1_BEARB (Slow PLC).

In the next step the IP address and the port number of the SICAM I/O-Unit have to be set. Therefore
just click with the right mouse button into the I/O-Unit and select Object Properties, sheet I/Os.
Then enter the right data for IP address (line 7 to line 10) and Port number (as HEX code in line 11)
in column Value:
The 6 binary inputs of the SICAM I/O-Unit are denominated BI_N1 to BI_N3 and BI_P1 to BI_P3,
whereas the 6 binary outputs of the SICAM I/O-Unit are denominated IR1 to IR6 (Indication from
Remote). To connect a signal just click with the right mouse button into one of the inputs or outputs of
the I/O-Unit and select Interconnection to Address.
Then select the signal you want and click OK. Afterwards repeat this procedure for each binary
input and output that you want to use.

Finally click the Compile button. If the compilation is successful, the message Process
correctly executed will be displayed.
If you want to use the CFC block output signal CA (Communication Active) please refer to
the description on the last page of this document!
Close the CFC chart and click the Save button.
Then press Device DIGSI to Device.
The process will be completed by entering the password in the input box and then OK.
Note: Save settings to file.

As long as only one I/O-Unit is connected to the protection device the parameters Ethernet switch
on can be kept to no and the Port number can also remain at 51000.
If two I/O-Units are connected to one protection device the parameter Ethernet switch on has to
be changed to yes in the first I/O-Unit. The Port number of the first I/O-Unit can remain at
51000.
Save with the button SEND. To
activate the modified settings in
the I/O-Unit select Activation in
the left column, followed by the
password (000000) and Return.
Settings in the 2nd I/O-Unit:
Replug the Ethernet cable from
the first I/O-Unit and establish a
point-to-point connection between
PC/Notebook and the second I/OUnit. On the second I/O-Unit IP
address and Port number
have to be changed accordingly:
IP address 192.168.10.56
Port number 51001
The operating mode has to be changed to Modbus UDP. The parameter Ethernet switch on
can be kept to no.
Save with the button SEND. To activate the modified settings in the I/O-Unit select Activation in
the left column, followed by the password (000000) and Return.
Now you have to change your Ethernet adapter to the IP-address 192.168.10.3, as mentioned in
the table of page 2. The procedure is described in Preparing the PC/Notebook on page 9 of this
document.
The following steps
have to be performed
for each I/O-Unit
individually:
Configure Binary
inputs:
Initially the Threshold
voltage of all 6 binary
inputs is set to 19V.
The threshold voltages
can be changed in 4
different blocks for
BI1/BI2 on Block N,
BI3 on Block N,
BI1/BI2 on Block P
and BI3 on Block P.

If you made some changes then save with the button SEND. To activate the modified settings in
the I/O-Unit select Activation in the left column, followed by the password (000000) and Return.
Configure Binary outputs:
Initially all 6 binary outputs are already set to Indication 16 from Remote and Operating
mode is set to Persistent. As long as the binary outputs are used as relay contacts - which is our
standard application here - all settings in this window can remain unchanged.
Configure LEDs:
Initially the Error LED is set to None. To check if the Ethernet communication link is ok we
recommend to set the Error LED to Ethernet Link Error. Both indication LEDs H1 and H2 can
be set individually.
If you made some
changes then save
with the button
SEND. To
activate the
modified settings in
the I/O-Unit select
Activation in the
left column,
followed by the
password (000000)
and Return.

If the Ethernet connection is stable, the timer is blocked by the High-level status of the output signal
CA at its timer input Reset.
If the Ethernet connection gets interrupted the timer input Reset will be released by the Low-level
status of CA. At the same time the timer will be started by the High-level status of the negator.
If the Low-level status on output CA lasts longer than the set time of the CFC timer, the protection
device will indicate a communication error as long as the communication is interrupted.
The timer will be blocked and the indication on the protection device will be suppressed when the
output CA reaches a High-level status before the CFC timer expires (e.g. 50 ms).
Note: Please consider the correct CFC task level and run sequence of the CFC blocks.
