1. DEFINITIONS
Summary of some of the terms and acronyms used in this manual
• Dependability - Ability of a Teleprotection link to issue a valid command in the

presence of interference or noise. For convenience, the probability of missing
command Pmc is usually measured, the dependability is therefore given by 1 - Pmc.
• Security - Ability of a system to prevent interference or noise from generating a

command state at the receiving end when no command is transmitted. For
convenience, the probability of unwanted command Puc is usually measured, the
security is then given by 1 - Puc.
• Nominal transmission time - The time elapsed between the moment of a change of
state at the transmitter input and the moment of the corresponding change of state at
the receiver output when there is no interference or noise. This time does not include
propagation time.
• Guard - The guard signal or message is the signal or message being transmitted by
the teleprotection equipment in the idle state. When present, it inhibits any output of
the teleprotection receiver
• Command - The command signal or message is the signal or message transmitted

by the teleprotection requiring action at the receiving end.
• Permissive trip - Protection schemes that require a high dependability even under
conditions when, due to a power system disturbance, the telecommunication
medium may be adversely affected.
• Direct trip / Inter-trip - Protective schemes that are similar in operation to permissive
trip with the exception that security against unwanted operation and dependability of
correct operation are prime requirements. Speed of operation is usually sacrificed to
meet security and dependability requirements.
• Blocking - Protective schemes in which the requirements are more stringent for
dependability and the speed of operation
• VF - Voice Frequency
• DCE - Data Communication Equipment
• DTE - Data Terminal Equipment
• LF (AF) - Low Frequency. Signals transmitted in the 0-4 kHz base band. Also called
Audio Frequency.
• FV - Guard Frequency
• FC - Command (or Command) Frequency

FIGURE 2 - VOICE FREQUENCY INTERFACE

The voice frequency interface is working in a part of the 4 kHz audio frequency band, the
signal from transmitter to the receiver is conveyed via a telecommunication circuit that can
be cable link, PLC link, rented circuits, point to point radio links ...
2.3 Functions
The operational and safety demands of power networks require rapid, reliable and secure
exchange of data between the protection systems installed at the ends of the transmission
lines. Transfer of this information requires powerful systems. On the other hand, the spread
of digital transmission networks and the growth of their field of application have brought
about the development of specific high-tech telecommunications devices. Since it has been
designed to meet these demands, the DIP5000 Digital/Analog Teleprotection equipment
offers:
FOR THE TRANSMISSION PART
Encoding of information to ensure both, compatibility with the standard transmission medium
and also immunity to any interference that it may encounter.
FOR THE RECEPTION PART
Decoding and advanced processing of the signals received, enabling faithful return of the
information transmitted.

Although initially designed for power applications, DIP5000 Teleprotection equipment is also
used in all applications where the following criteria are essential :
• Very short transfer times
• Optimum dependability and security
• Immunity to interference caused by the electrical environment

2.4 Transmission principle
2.4.1 Digital Mode
The transmission principle used is that of constant transmission of a digital frame
corresponding to the stand-by state. Closing one or more contacts modifies this frame and
transmits a command message. The length of the messages depends on the Teleprotection
variant chosen. They are encoded by means of a 4, 8 or 16 words selected in a code. The
code is calculated to provide maximum security and reliability.
2.4.2 Analog mode
Frequency coding in the 0 - 4 kHz band.
As part of this principle the standby state (all the contacts whose position is to be transmitted
open) corresponds to the continuous transmission of a guard frequency FV. If one or more
contacts close, transmission of the guard frequency stops and one or more command
frequencies FC are transmitted (via closed contact or transmitted command).

2.5 Available interfaces
The architecture and principles used enable the DIP5000 Digital/Analog Teleprotection
equipment to adapt to the various transmission media:
• Speed from 32 Kbps to 2048 Kbps.
• Interface G703, V11,…
• Optical Interface
• Interface for 4 wires voice frequency support (LS, PLC)

DIP5000 Page 9/22
2.6 Protection schemes

In all cases, the performances of a Teleprotection link are the result of a compromise
between transfer time, dependability and security. Depending on the protection diagram to
which the Teleprotection equipment is to be connected, one of these following three criteria
must be promoted. To achieve this, the DIP5000 Digital teleprotection equipment has 3
types of application :
• Permissive tripping type which promotes dependability,
• Blocking type which promotes transfer time,
• Direct tripping type that promotes security.

Each command is independent from others and can be customized.
2.7 Self tests
The DIP5000 Teleprotection equipment provides a number of automated processes that
constantly check its various functions (power supply monitoring, I/O boards supervision ...)
The transmission link, digital or analog, is permanently checked. Alarm conditions are issued
when the medium is not any more able to ensure a good dependability and security level.
Any operating fault results in the following actions that:
• Protect command outputs,
• Light up indicator lights,
• Record usable information (log),
• Trigger alarm loops.

2.8 Optional features
The following features can be provided on analog and digital mode DIP5000 teleprotection :
• IRIG-B interface for synchronizing event logging on both sides
• Auxiliary power supply board to increase reliability and availability
• Adding I/O board module provides combinatorial logic on inputs and outputs.
2.9 Environmental immunity
DIP5000 Teleprotection equipment is designed to work in hostile environmental conditions
that can be found in buildings housing very high voltage relay equipment.
To this end, it is fitted with protection devices against electromagnetic interference
(induced or radiated).
Page 10/22 DIP5000
2.10 Ease of use

DIP5000 Digital Teleprotection equipment has been designed to facilitate commissioning,
use and maintenance of links. It is therefore fitted with an RS232C port to allow it to be

2.11 Digital mode specific features

2.11.1 Optimization of the transmission medium
Digitalization of telecommunications networks for power distribution and transmission
services optimizes the transfer of Teleprotection messages insofar as they are sent in the
same way as the other services for these systems.
On the other hand, with the principle adopted, the link constantly transmits a frame when
there are no commands, which enables both teleprotections to talk and exchange
information via service words.
2.11.2 Number of commands
The architecture of the DIP5000 Digital Teleprotection equipment enables the transmission
of 2, 4 or 8 commands using standard boards. Regardless of the variant used, the various
commands are independent and can be transmitted simultaneously.
2.11.3 Applications
Customization for the protection scheme is carried out on each set of 2 commands (1-2), (3-
4), (5-6), (7-8). The application can be selected between blocking, permissive or direct
tripping.
2.11.4 Link check
The transmission medium is permanently checked using a part of the transmitted frame (call
service channel). This service channel allows the teleprotections to exchange data about
their respective states and to decide whether or not if the link is able to carry out its
assignment. The local apparatus reflects the state of the remote by means of the remote
alarm feature. The transmission time of the link is also permanently checked through the
service channel by measuring on both sides the times for a particular message to come back
from the opposite side. The operator can check this transmission time using the HMI
application on a personal computer with any version of Windows∗ (since Windows 95).
Using the HMI application, the operator can also check the Bit Error Rate on the link
2.11.5 Maintenance and loopback
In order to control local and remote Teleprotection operation, the operator can switch the
equipment to maintenance mode and carry out a local or remote loopback using the
DIP5000 man-machine interface :
• The local loopback can be carried out while transmitting to the remote.
• The remote and local loopback are exclusive
• Commands can be forced with HMI while in local or remote mode

2.12 Analog mode specific features

2.12.1 Transmission medium
The DIP5000 teleprotection equipment is designed to transmit low frequency signals on a 4-
wire analog transmission medium possessing an voice frequency analog access. Note that
the link is always bi-directional.
The architecture and principles adopted are such that the DIP5000 system can adapt to the
different bandwidth constraints of conventional transmission media, i.e. :
• 300 - 2400 Hz (cables, etc.).
• 300 - 3400 Hz (microwaves, optical fibers, radio, etc.).
• 300 - 3700 Hz (Power Line Carrier).

2.12.2 Optimization of the medium
When DIP5000 equipment are used with Power Line Carrier equipments (IEC Publication
495), the operation of the transmission medium can be optimized :
• Bandwidth optimization
In the absence of a command, the link can transmit other signals (for example, telephony or
data). In this particular case the guard frequency FV can be the telephone signaling
frequency of the telecommunication system and hence can be generated by the latter.
When a command is transmitted, the transmission of telephony, calling and, as appropriate,
higher frequency signals is interrupted for the benefit of the command frequencies.
• Power optimization
On another hand, a specific exploitation mode, called Enhanced Mode allows the use of all
the available power of the PLC equipment to transmit the teleprotection commands.
In this scheme, the level of the transmitted command towards the PLC depends on the
number of command to transmit simultaneously , in order to obtain a P.E.P. level, on the
R.F. medium, equivalent to the level of the maximum power of the PLC.
2.12.3 Number of commands
The architecture of the DIP5000 equipment is such that standard boards can be used to
provide a 2 or 4 commands version.
Two variant can be adopted :
• Normal Mode
The various Commands are independent and can be transmitted simultaneously.
• Enhanced Mode (for maximum power. See above)

In the 4-commands mode, the commands are grouped by pairs that are treated on a
hierarchical basis. Commands 1 and 2 have priority on commands 3 and 4.
2.12.4 Link self-check
The operator can verify the general operation of the link, even in service, by pressing a push
button or through the operator console. This procedure transmits a test message that is
returned by the other terminal system. The test message uses only the guard frequency
channel and therefore is harmless considering unwanted commands.
This procedure provides a very quick check on the transmission medium and the transmitter
and receiver parts of the equipments.
The procedure can also be initiated automatically by the system on a daily basis at a fixed
time selected by the operator, or on an hourly basis. This features are programmed using the
HMI application.
DIP5000 Page 13/22
If the procedure should fail (after three successive attempts), the system enters in an
irreversible alarm condition (illumination of fault lights and activation of alarm loops).

2.12.5 Special functions
2.12.5.1 Unblocking function
Initiation condition: a loss on the guard frequency level higher than the threshold
programmed and during a time higher than the one selected causes a calibrated command
of 200 ms to be issued on the selected output.
• Delay time threshold : Adjustable from 5 to 80ms by step of 1ms
• Trip threshold : Adjustable from 10 to 20 dB under the guard nominal level by step of
1 dB
2.12.5.2 Alive output
The voice frequency interface module provides a output contact (Solid state relay) which is
closed as long as the DIP5000 teleprotection is powered. This features allows the
communication equipment or the protection automation system to be aware of the powering-
off of the teleprotection when guard frequency is emitted by the communication equipment.
The circuit for this contact is located in the communication interface connector.
2.12.5.3 External alarm input
The voice frequency interface board has an opto-electronic input circuit that is activated by
voltage (48V nominal). This input can be configured by HMI to trigger an alarm on the
teleprotection equipment. This alarm can be minor or major and is activated after a delay
selected by the user (from 0 to 2.5 seconds with 100ms step).
This feature allows, for example, the DIP5000 teleprotection to take into account the
absence or the powering-off, as well as a dedicated alarm issued by the communication
equipment.
The circuit for this input is located in the communication interface connector.

Consumption in idle state (without command) is 7W.
DIP5000 Page 11/26
5. CONNECTION
5.1 Earthing rule
To comply with the EMC characteristics announced, the rack of DIP5000 equipment must be
connected to a ground bar through a flat braid made of galvanized copper with a section of,
at least, 12 X 1 mm. This braid must be connected, DIP5000 equipment side, on one of the
two gudgeon pin located at the back of the frame.
The immunity to electromagnetic perturbations is directly related to

the characteristics of the earthing connection. Any deviation can
severely influence performances and availability.
5.2 Allocation of input/output sockets
The various external sockets and connection points on the DIP5000 Digital Teleprotection
equipment are situated on the rear panel of the equipment.
They are an integral part of the motherboard and include :
• P10 Terminal block containing command inputs 1 to 4.
• P11 Terminal block containing command output contacts 1 to 4
• P12 Terminal block containing command inputs 5 to 8.
• P13 Terminal block containing command output contacts 5 to 8
• P14 Auxiliary output terminal block for copying commands transmissions and
receptions.
• P15 Auxiliary output terminal block for copying commands transmissions and
receptions.
• P16 Major and minor alarm loop distribution terminal block.
• P17 Power Supply terminal block.
• P18 15 pins female socket connector for access to the communication line (copper
wire).
• P19 9 pins female socket connector for RS232C link with the interface PC for
maintenance/operation or access to the supervision network (TMN).
• P20 BNC connector for connection to an external clock by IRIG-B signal.
• FC/PC connector for optical fiber connection, only if the equipment is fitted with the
IR182 option.
The location of these connection points is given in Appendix A figure 8.
5.3 Connection for commands I/O
The commands I/O to and from the protection relay are located on terminal blocks P10, P11,
P12 and P13 at the rear side of the equipment. The references of the connectors are marked
on the rear panel as well as the position of pin 1 for each connector (see Appendix A –figure
8).
All the input and output of these blocks are fully isolated. Following the variant chosen,
combinatorial logic can be allocated to commands. This means that one command can be
activated by the logical AND or the logical OR of two inputs coming from different sources
with different voltage levels. This feature is available on the following variants :
⇒ 2 commands variant
⇒ 4 commands variant with one extra I/O board

Furthermore, in these variants, the command output is activated on two independent relays.
Page 12/26 DIP5000
5.3.1 Plug-in terminal blocks description

The conductors are connected to these terminal blocks by means of 10 self-locking
connection points that lock in place conductors with a section between 0.08 and 2.5mm²
inclusive.
These terminal blocks must be wired as follows:
⇒ Strip each conductor to a length of 9 mm,
⇒ Using the tool supplied (lever), press on 1,
⇒ Insert the conductor in the dedicated housing,
⇒ Release the lever.

These terminal blocks are also fitted with foolproof devices to prevent fitting the wrong way
when they are being installed on the plugs situated on the motherboard.

5.7 Optical Fiber access port

For the optical fiber version, the IR182 interface board must be present at its location in the
equipment and must imperatively be fixed to the back panel via its two screws. The
connection toward the communication equipment or with the remote DIP5000 is realized
through 2 FC/PC connectors located on the rear side of the equipment, see Appendix A -
figure 8. These connectors are part of the IR182 optical interface board.
The two terminals (Tx and Rx) are FC/PC type connectors for singlemode fiber. When IR182
interface is not present, an EMC protection plate, seals the connectors location. When the
optical interface is used, the P18 transmission connector must then be equipped with its
EMC protection cover.
Warning : Never try to remove IR182 module from apparatus without

removing beforehand the two fastening screws located on the back
panel.
5.8 MMI access port (Connection to the PC)
The port for the Personal Computer serial RS232 connection is located on front panel of the
equipment. It is a
9-pole female connector SUB-D type.
A standard 2 meter long connecting lead is provided with the equipment. This lead is wired
point to point. It includes circuits allowing the DIP5000 equipment to detect the presence of
the PC on the front panel connector.
The connection can also be made to the connector located on the rear side of the equipment
(see P19 in Appendix A- figure 8). In this case, a DTE-DCE type adapter must be used with
the standard lead. The motherboard connector is dedicated to a supervision network access
(TMN), on this access, the RTS / CTS hardware protocol is managed.
When not used, the connectors must be covered with the caps provided with the equipment.
5.9 IRIG-B interface port
This port is dedicated for connection to an external clock with an IRIG-B synchronization
interface (IRIG-B mode with analog 1 kHz modulation). The port is a standard female BNC
coaxial connector which is located on the rear side of the equipment (see P20 in Appendix
A- figure 8), the connection is to be made using a standard male-male BNC cable.
The braid of the coaxial cable, which is the IRIG-B signal ground, is connected to the
equipment mechanical ground.
When not used, the connector must be covered with the BNC cap provided with the
equipment.
Page 22/26 DIP5000
6. INSTALLATION
Installation of the equipment includes the following steps:
1. Install casing (rack, cabinet or box).
2. Insert cables for subsystems and operation (power supply, earthing, transmission
medium, and protection equipment).
3. Mount rack in casing. It is fastened in place using the screws on the front panel.
4. Connect rack to earth circuit.
5. Before installing the cards in the racks, check if apparatus is switched off (plugs
removed or switch open).
6. Install cards in rack.
NOTE : The optical interface card must be plugged and tied to the rack before
mounting the rack in the frame.

1. FOREWORD
1.1 Organisation
A DIP 5000 teleprotection link is commissioned according to the Step by Step procedure
described in the following paragraphs.
Compliance with these procedures will prevent any operating incidents and the deterioration
of equipment, authorises optimum configuration of the link and the fastest switch to the
operational phase.
For anything relating to use of the configurator (Human-Machine Interface) refer to the
corresponding manual.
1.2 Step by Step procedure
A DIP5000 link is making operative in accordance with the following block figure 1:

NB: Any handling of cards (removal or insertion) must be carried out when
the equipment is powered down.
Page 6/20 DIP5000
1.3 Measuring apparatus

The facilities offered by the (HMI) configurator software enable full control of equipment
(including commissioning and testing) without measuring apparatus (excluding the PC).
Where traditional measuring apparatus such as voltmeters, universal meters, can still be
used to control or display the various signals (Command output, etc.), the only essential
piece of equipment is the Personal Computer (PC) together with the configuration software
(DIP5000 Configurator).
1.4 Equipment safety (Keying the connectors)
The DIP5000 has a safety device which can upset commissioning if not known:
Disconnecting a user terminal block (Command Inputs and Outputs at the back of the
equipment) causes the alarm indicator lights to come on and the alarm contact status to
change. Refer to the installation manual.
Each connector has a keying digit which prevents a connector being plugged into the wrong
socket.
DIP5000 Page 7/20
2. CONTROL AND CUSTOMIZATION OF MODULES

Before inserting any module into the equipment (before commissioning or during
replacement) it is better to check that the various customizations have been carried out
correctly.

1. SUMMARY OF FAULT MANAGEMENT

For further information, refer to the “Operation” section.
Faults are split into two classes: Major and Minor

Major Faults
A major fault is a fault whose appearance inhibits normal operation of the equipment or
entails a risk to operation. In all cases, it involves placing the command output relays in rest
mode. The relays are kept in this mode until the fault disappears.
Minor Faults
A minor fault is a fault whose appearance causes no risk to operation. In this case, normal
operation of the equipment is guaranteed:
Faults are split into two types: Reversible and Irreversible

Reversible faults
Reversible faults convey an abnormal condition at a given moment. The teleprotection
returns to normal operating mode as soon as the fault disappears.
Irreversible faults
Irreversible faults convey permanent non-operation of the link or equipment. Manual
intervention (including repowering or resetting) is necessary to resolve it.
Faults are split into three categories: Powering up / Hardware / Communication

Page 6/34 DIP5000
The following table summarises the various fault categories showing the class and type:

** In the Version column, ‘D’ indicates that the fault concerns only the Digital version of the
DIP5000. ‘A’ indicates that the fault concerns only the Analog version. None indicates that
the fault concerns both versions.
Remote equipment faults are indicated locally. They are classed as reversible whatever their
nature. Once the remote fault is removed, the local alarm disappears.

Based on the information supplied by the equipment and by means of certain handling, the
repair procedure enables:
⇒ Location of the faulty component (DIP5000 card, transmission medium.)
⇒ The equipment to be returned to operational status

The following covers most cases that may be encountered. In other cases (several
simultaneous faults or breakdowns with multiple implications), knowledge of the system’s
structure (all the equipment that makes up a link, including transmission medium) will
gradually reduce the faults (card by card, ...).
Special precautions:
The card must only be handled once the equipment is POWERED DOWN.
When replacing a card, make sure that customisations on the spare card are the
same as those on the card being replaced
(see «commissioning» manual).
Before any action on the optical interface board, it is necessary to withdraw the
fastening screws of module IR182 located on the back panel.
The fastening screws of module IR182 must be inserted
before connecting optical fibers
Page 8/34 DIP5000
3. MAINTENANCE RESOURCES
There are three types of maintenance resources offered by the DIP5000 equipment:
− The pushbutton
− Signalling (relays and indicator lights)
− The human-machine dialogue interface

3.1 Pushbuttons
Pushbuttons S1 and S2 are accessible when the door is open.
Pushbutton S1 is used to restart the equipment.
Pushbutton S2 :
• Is reserved in the digital version
• Is used to launch a link test in the analogue version

DIP5000 Page 9/34
3.2 Signalling
Signalling requiring a maintenance operation is produced by four relays (two for the major
alarm and two for the minor alarm), and also 13 coloured indicator lights (LEDs).
These 13 indicator lights are described in the table below:

TABLE 2 – MEANING OF SIGNALLING INDICATOR LIGHTS

Relays:
The signalling lights "MAJOR ALARM" and "MINOR ALARM" are associated with relay
contacts which can be time-delayed.
Each alarm has two independent normally open contact relays, the time-delay for which can
be programmed by the HMI.
Page 10/34 DIP5000
Each relay contact can be time-delayed by 0s, 2.5s, 5s or 10s, (refer to the «Human
Machine Interface» section).

TABLE 3 – MEANING OF "STATUS" AND "MAINTENANCE" INDICATOR LIGHTS

3.3 Human Machine Dialogue
The DIP5000 teleprotection communicates with the outside world through the HMI
communication interface (RS232 serial link), the functionalities of which are described in the
«Human/Machine Interface» section of the technical manual.
3.3.1 Reading faults.
Faults are read from the menu:
<Read> <Local/Remote> <Alarms Snapshot>
or from the "Alarm" box on the lower status bar if at least one alarm is present.
This function is used to display the cause of a fault on the local or remote equipment on the
operator console (provided that both equipment can communicate).
The faults managed by the equipment are the following:
"Powering up" faults
• Flash EPROM control

• DSP internal RAM control
• Timer RAM control
• Configuration checksum
• Type of communication interface
• SR114 coherence / HMI configuration
• IRIG-B coherence / HMI configuration
• Loopback test
DIP5000 Page 11/34
"Hardware" faults
• SR114 module test

• Presence of operating terminal blocks
• Power supply voltage test
• Battery voltage test
• Link Test alarm (analogue version only)
"Communication" faults
• Bit Error Rate / Major Alarm (digital version only)

• Bit Error Rate / Minor Alarm (digital version only)
• Synchronisation loss (digital version only)
• Major remote Alarm
• Minor remote Alarm
• Time of transmission (digital version only)
• TX Command duration Alarm
• Low Level Alarm (analogue version only)
• Missing Guard Alarm (analogue version only)
• External Alarm (analogue version only)
"Communication Interface" faults
• Lack of received signal (digital version only)

• Lack of timing (digital version only)
3.3.2 Forcing (Maintenance menu).
A certain number of teleprotection statuses can be forced from the operator console. These
forcing operations can only be carried out when the teleprotection is in Maintenance mode.
In this status, normal operation of the equipment is no longer guaranteed (the amber V7
«Maintenance» indicator light is active).
The various statuses that can be forced are:
• Local communication loopback

• Remote equipment looping (after unlocking the line)
• Transmission line cut (the line is locked by default)
• Command output relay lock (the relays are locked by default)
• Transmission of commands on line (and associated auxiliary relays)
• Command output relays (and associated auxiliary relays)
• PLC commands forcing (emission & reception) for the analog version
NB: Forcing is maintained even when the console is disconnected.
3.3.3 Reset
The local or remote teleprotection can be reset from the console. In this case, the
teleprotection inhibits its normal operation and stops restarting the watchdog, which triggers
the reset phase.
Page 12/34 DIP5000
4. REPAIR PROCEDURE
All repair procedures are described in the block diagrams on the following pages.
Each time a card is replaced, it is best to repeat the commissioning procedure.
Remember: It is best to automatically check the following when you carry out any repair:
⇒ Wiring, the nature and quality of circuits to which the DIP5000 is connected
(protection side, transmission medium, power supply and alarms)
⇒ The motherboard (for any signs of deterioration).

4.1 Source fault
The first stage involves checking that the power supply voltage reaches the equipment
properly. This stage can be omitted if the "Power" indicator light or lights are lit.
4.2 Human Machine Dialogue Fault
When it is impossible to communicate with the RS232 link, check the connection between
the console and the DIP5000. Check that the connector on the equipment’s front panel is
properly connected to the UT148 card.
4.3 System fault (Messages / Action(s))
All faults are signalled by the major and minor alarm indicator lights and also by the other
maintenance (MTN) and status (STATUS) indicator lights.
The precise meaning of faults is given in a HMI window containing an exhaustive list of
faults. The active faults are ticked.
DIP5000 Page 13/34

This analysis is obtained for local equipment by clicking on the “ALARM” item on the lower
status bar: when this is active.

1.1 Foreword
As it is powerful and easy to use, the DIP5000 teleprotection HMI enables local or remote:
• complete commissioning of the equipment and control of its levels, without the need
for other tools,
• filing of configurations (=>rationalisation of commissioning actions),
• dated recording of equipment information (=> analyses and statistics),
• interactive and user-friendly maintenance,
• printing of equipment parameters.

1.2 System Required
The HMI runs on PCs fitted with 486 microprocessors and higher, operating under
WINDOWS 98, NT, 2X or XP. They must have at least:
• 2 Mb free on the hard disk,
• 8 Mb of RAM.
Important: Where several tasks are running at the same time (office tools or other),
transmission faults may occur on the PC-HMI. It is therefore recommended that all
applications are closed before using his HMI.
1.3 Installing the HMI
For security reasons, it is recommended that the HMI is installed from a copy of the disk
supplied. Installation:
⇒ insert the disk provided in the disk reader,
⇒ run setup.exe file from the <Run> <Menu> in the program manager: D:\setup,
⇒ follow the instructions.

1.5 User levels and passwords
1.5.1 User levels
1.5.1.1 Structure
The DIP5000 teleprotection places operations in hierarchical order: some actions have no
impact on the operation of equipment, others, due to their impact on security and operation,
require specific responsibility on the part of the operator.
The HMI is therefore structured into user levels; there are 3 of them, marked 0 to 2.
Level 0 is the default level on start-up. To make this hierarchical arrangement, the command
menus are displayed according to user level.

FIGURE 44 – MAINTENANCE LEVELS.

Input level measure:
This Panel is accessible starting from user level 0.
⇒ This control displays the level received by the receiver.
⇒ Display is done in dBr. The value lies between -45 dBr and +15 dBr
⇒ "0 dBr" is the nominal value of receiver alignment.
⇒ The display accuracy is ± 0.1 dBr.
Output levels setting:

This panel is accessible starting from user level 1.
⇒ The value is given directly in dBm (600 Ω).
⇒ The levels are adjustable between -30 dBm and +6 dBm.
⇒ The accuracy is ±0.1 dBm.
Transmission of all these values to the DIP5000 will be effective by pushing the <Send>
button.
In this case the information concerned takes effect but is volatile.
During a reset the information that was previously saved is used.
Do <Send> then Close the window.
By answering <Yes> to the message "Do you want to save the input/output level adjustment
in flash?”, the modified values will be definitively saved in the DIP5000.
During a reset it is this information that will be used.
DIP5000 Page 47/56
Adjustment Receiving Alignment:

This panel is accessible starting from user level 1.
This control causes the alignment of the receiver.
The received level of the guard frequencies is given directly in dBm.
This level is adjustable between -45 dBm and +15dBm.
The relative level commands/guard is given in dB.

This level is adjustable between 0 and +6dB in normal mode and 0 and +16dB in enhanced
mode.
Transmission of the values to the DIP5000 must be made individually for each value with the
<Send> button.
In this case the information concerned (that selected) takes effect but is volatile.
Automatic Alignment;
This button is accessible starting from user level 1.
This control causes the alignment of the receiver.
This alignment is automatic and is carried out according to the received level of the guard
frequency. At the end of alignment, the received level of the guard frequency will change.

2.7.4.1.4 Maintenance Force/Lock/Loop

This tabsheet is accessible starting from user level 2 and if Maintenance mode is activated.
FIGURE 45 – MAINTENANCE FORCE/LOCK/LOOP TABSHEET.

Loop Back:
In this mode, transmission is looped on reception even if the transmission media access is
locked.
The states are:
⇒ active
⇒ inactive
Locking:
The states for line and contact relay are:
⇒ Unlocking
⇒ Locking
Unlocking Line: This state is used to connect the teleprotection transmitter to the
transmission line. This operating mode introduces some risks of unwanted command since
the operator can simulate the acquisition of a command.
Locking Line: This state is used to disconnect the teleprotection transmitter from the
transmission line. The operator can then simulate a command acquisition without any risk.
Unlocking Commands: When this state is activated, the output commands relays state
comply with the command conditions present on the reception line. This operating mode
introduces some risks of local unwanted command in case of loop back.
DIP5000 Page 49/56
Locking Commands: When this state is activated, the output commands relays are forced to
idle state, whatever the command conditions present on the reception line.
The HMI does not work like a simulator. In particular, the forcing
transmits real commands output and commands transmission.
Therefore, careless use of these commands may have major
consequences on operation.
Forcing
The different forcing are:
⇒ Transmitter Forcing
⇒ Restitution’s relays Forcing
⇒ PLC Commands forcing

Transmitter Forcing:
This panel is used to send frequencies on the line referring to various states; standby,
command or test message. These frequencies will be really generated on the line if this one
is unlocked. The relays of recopy as for them are always unlocked.
Restitution’s relay Forcing:
This panel is used to force the commands output relays state of the local equipment. The
commands output relays will be activated only if the relays are unlocked. The relays of
recopy as for them are always unlocked.
PLC Commands forcing:
This panel is used to force the state of transmission suppression service or reception
suppression service toward PLC equipment.
2.7.4.2 <DIP> <Date>
The <DIP><Date> menu reads or writes the date and time for teleprotection.
