USER MANUAL
 PREFACE
Before You Start
Please read this manual thoroughly before installation, operation and
maintenance of the relay.

Disclaimer

incidental and/or consequential damages arising from the use of this
material. Mikro also reserves the right to vary the product from that
described in this material without prior notice.

Precautions
Please observe the following safety precautions before and during the
installation of the relay:

Only competent and trained personnel should install, operate, service

and maintain this device.

Disconnect ALL power sources to the relay before performing installa-

tion, inspection, tests and maintenance.

Do not perform megger, hi-pot or any high voltage stress test with the
relay connected to the system.

Install in a suitable enclosure where relay connections are inaccessible

with suffficient clearance from other live parts.

Please note that incorrect installation may impair the operation or even
damage the relay. There is no user servicable part in the relay. Tamper-
ing with it may damage the relay, result in injury and also voiding any
warranty.

1. Introduction
The purpose of this manual is to provide information necessary to
install, operate and maintain the X10 earth leakage relay. It has two
configurable output relays, one IRF relay, one configurable logic input
and MUST operate together with Mikro’s ZCT. Using the front panel
keys, the user can easily navigate through the user-friendly menu, read
measurements, status and change settings. The alarm/trip records are
displayed on the back-lit LCD. There is a RS485 port on the rear termi-
nals. Using MODBUS-RTU protocol, most information can be read or
modified through the serial communication port.

5. Password
Password Protection
Relay settings can be viewed anytime but locked from being changed.
A password is required for changing the settings. The password consists
of four digits. The factory default password is 0000.

The programming mode is indicated with the letter “P” on the right
hand side of the display. The letter “P” remains displayed as long as
the password is active. This mode is exited if no key is pressed for 2
minutes.

Password Entry
The password is requested as soon as the modification of a parameter
is initiated. The user enters each one of the 4 digits by using the UP or
DOWN key and validates each digit by pressing the ENTER key. If
the ESC key is pressed in between, the password entry is terminated.

“Password OK” is shown if the correct password is entered. “Password

ERROR” is shown if the wrong password is entered.

The display returns to the point of the preceding menu. Press the EN-
TER key again to modify the setting. If no key is pressed after 2 min-
utes, the settings are locked. A new password request must be initiated
for any subsequent setting change.

Changing Password
To change the password, go to the Op Parameter Password menu.
Enter the current password to unlock, after which the display shows
the current password. Press the ENTER key again to enter the new
password.

19
6. Alarm
Alarm Type
Alarms are divided into two categories: user resettable and non-
resettable types.

For the user non-resettable type, the alarm is self reset by the relay once
the alarm condition is removed.

For the user resettable type, the user must ensure the cause of the
alarm is removed before the alarm can be cleared.

Eg: To clear “ZCT fault” alarm, the user must resolve the hardware
ZCT connection problem before the alarm can be cleared.

Alarm Condition
During an alarm condition, the alarm LED blinks and the alarm record
pops up. Press any key to acknowledge the alarm. Once acknowledged,
the alarm LED will be changed to continuous on.

Alarm Viewing
Press the RECORD key once. Press the RECORD key again to view
successive records. Alternatively, in the alarm, press the UP or DOWN
key to scroll through the records.

Alarm Clearing
To clear a single alarm, use the RECORD key to navigate to the desired
alarm and press the CLEAR key. To clear all records, use the RECORD
key to navigate until the display shows “Clear all alarm?” and press
the CLEAR key.

8 MODBUS
8.1 MODBUS Protocol

The RS485 port is located at the rear terminals and uses the MODBUS
-RTU protocol. The communication setting is set in the COMMUNI-
CATION Menu from the front panel or RS485 port. When changes
are made through the RS485 port, modifications are restricted to the
communication protocol registers or addresses ranging from 0211h
to 0214h. The changes take place immediately after the acknowledge
message is sent.

Most of the MODBUS database registers can be modified through the

RS485 port except the following:
a) relay status registers, address ranging from 0000h to 001Fh.
b) communication function enable/disable register, address=0210h.
c) front panel access password register, address=0215h.
d) RL1 or relay 1 trip option, address=0270h.

Items (b) & (c) can only be modified through the front panel. Reading
the password register will always return 0000h.

Prior to writing data to the database, the user MUST ensure that the
relay front panel access password is not active. Otherwise, the data
write is void. The front panel access password status can be checked by
reading the database interlocking bit on the relay status register or bit
10 of address 0010h. Reading of the database registers is not affected.

The MODBUS communication address 0 is a broadcast command to all

slave devices. The slave devices will not respond to a broadcast com-
mand.
