Instruction Manual
The core of the relay is a DSP (a CPU optimized for digital signal processing). This is the
intelligence of the smART M-6279. The DSP runs the protection, measure, storage and
communications algorithm. A Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) complements the DSP,
helping in the control tasks of the signal acquisition, input/output ports, buttons control and light
indicators (LEDs), IRIG-B signal decoding and some of the basic calculations for protection
functions.
As a complement for the core compound by the DSP and the FPGA, the smART M-6279
contains the following elements:
FLASH memory (up to 8MB). Stores the operative program of the relay (firmware), the
configuration and historical data. The Flash memory retains its contents even when the
equipment has no power supply. However, its contents may be modified, so the
firmware can be updated at the installation, without changing hardware.
SRAM memory (1MB). Stores information that is modified in a very fast way. A
lithium battery allows retaining the data even when there is no power supply.
DRAM memory (8MB). Stores dynamic data that can be lost if the power supply is
interrupted.
QUART. This is a device that gives the smART M-6279 serial port connections. 4 ports
are available, up to now 3 of them are used.
Analog signal acquisition. This is compound by the inputs and a set of filters and
amplifiers that make the signal conditioning for the A/D converter (AD block in the
diagram). This converter is a device that transforms voltage and current signals to
digital values that can be processed by the smART M-6279.
In addition to the mentioned elements, the equipment is completed with digital inputs,
digital outputs, the keyboard of 20 buttons, LED indicators, liquid crystal display, a
temperature sensor and IRIG-B input.
The smART M-6279 runs the protection algorithms each of cycle, reaching reliable and fast
execution times.

2 PROTECTION, CONTROL AND
METERING FUNCTIONS
This chapter describes the protection, control and measurement functions of the multifunction
smART M-6279 relay. All settings are related to secondary values, but proART communication
software can show them as primary or secondary units, depending on the users election.
2.1 PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
2.1.1 PHASE OVERCURRENT ELEMENTS
2.1.1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The protection element compares continuously the pickup value and the measured value. In case
that the measured value is greater than de pickup value the operation time is calculated referred to
the selected curve. If the current goes down the configured pickup value before the operation time
is elapsed then the relay will return to normal operation status.
The following configurable characteristics (function 50/51) are available for the overcurrent
protection functions of three phases, neutral and sensitive neutral:

If the Enable setting is set at YES, the function can generate trips; if it is at NO the function does
not work and if it is at YES and the option Electromechanical Reset is selected this function works
emuling the electromechanical disc. The pickup current is set in Amperes in the secondary.
Working in definite time, the relay trips after the set time, since the pickup current has been
exceeded, is elapsed, independently from the current value. Working with curve, the time to trip
depends on the selected curve (family and index) and the current value.
Protection functions are evaluated every of cycle of the fundamental system frequency and
half a cycle acting times can also be reached depending on the magnitude of the failure current.
In Appendix I graphics and formulas for calculating the time are given, as a function of the ratio
between the current and the pickup current. If the ratio is higher than 40, 40 will be taken for
calculating.

2.1.4 DIRECTIONALITY
The algorithms for instantaneous overcurrent (50), instantaneous neutral overcurrent (50N,
50NS), time overcurrent (51) and neutral time overcurrent (51N, 51NS) protections implemented
in the smART M-6279 relay can work in three different operating modes, according to
directionality:
a) Non directional: In this operating mode, the trip will happen independently of the power
flow.
b) Forward or backward directional: In this case, the protection only works for faults that
only are found in positive (forward) or negative (backward) sense in respect of the
measurement point.
c) Bidirectional: In this mode, the smART M-6279 works with two independent groups of
settings for 50/50N/50NS and 51/51N/51NS functions. The active group is selected every
fourth part of cycle, depending on the sense of the power flow detected in that fourth part of
cycle. This operating mode is very useful when the power is given by both ends and a fault
can cause current flows in one sense or the other. For each case the coordination of the
system is needed.
2.1.4.1 CONFIGURATION
The directionality configuration is independent for each setting group by the option Directional
overcurrent (67/67N/67NS) given in the software (proART). It is possible to enable the
directionality, its sense (forward, backward or bidirectional) and the maximum torque angle.
This angle permits adjusting the directional characteristic according to the particular case of the
protected line and it points to the centre of the forward trip zone. This zone is defined by the
perpendicular line to the setting angle. For example, if the setting angle is 0, the perpendicular line
goes from 90 to 270 (see Figure 2-1). The setting angle can be from 0 to 90.

Instruction Manual

For backward faults the same settings
are used, but applied like a mirror, 180
rotated (again, see Figure 2-1).
The directionality determining
algorithms select the correct voltage and
calculate the angle between the current
and voltage phasors according to some
rules (detailed later). If the angle drops
in the forward zone, the protection will
work in that sense; but if the angle drops
in backward zone, it will work with the
settings for that zone.
The relay doesnt work if the angle
between current and voltage drops out of
the tripping zones.
Once configured 67/67N function,
then its possible to configure 50/50N
and 51/51N functions properly, because
the configuration screens change lightly for the different operating modes (non directional,
forward/backward directional and bidirectional)
50 and 51 function screens are tab based. The different directional mode settings are changed in
the corresponding tab.
Non directional: In this case, only is shown a tab without text.
Forward or backward directional: In this case only a tab is shown again, but the text will
be Forward settings or Backward settings.
Bidirectional: Two tabs are shown, one with Forward settings text and the other with
Backward settings text.
2.1.4.2 PHASE DIRECTIONALITY DETERMINATION
For overcurrent faults (50/51) the relay looks for the voltage of the faulted phase to execute the
algorithm.
If this voltage is not enough, the relay takes derivatives of the voltage from the healthy phases.
Systems with ABC sequence, Vab voltage and A current is used for AB faults. Vbc voltage and B
current for BC faults. Finally, Vca voltage and C current for CA faults. In case of CBA systems, for
BA, CB and AC faults, Vba, Vcb, Vac and Ib, Ic, Ia are used respectively.
In case of not existing healthy voltage system, the relay takes de voltage phasor value from the
ones stored 2 cycles before the voltage misses, whenever the elapsed time is less than 500ms.
Finally, if there is not voltage information, the trip is permitted. In bidirectional mode, both
forward and backward configurations are simultaneously active. The one with shorter operating
time will proceed before.
In all cases its obtained the angle between the fault current phasor and the reference voltage.
The relay evaluates this angle and if it drops inside the trip zones configured by the setting angle,
the trip will happen. Otherwise, it will be blocked.
There is a fact that sould be taken in consider when configurating intsntaneous overcurrents.
Fault directionality is determined each of cycle. The smART M-6279 uses an algorithm that
requires a cycle and a for evaluating the phasors. Because of this, is not recommended to
configure the relay with 0 definite time instantaneous trips. Depending on the angle and the fault
magnitude, it could be possible to get the trip level earlier than the fault directionality

determination. ProART software does not limit the minimum trip time, being the user who must
select the appropriate time.
As a result, the minimum recommended is a cycle and a
half fixed time. This ensures that the directionality is
assessed taking into cosine filter window only fault
information, but limits the action time of the 50 unit to
25ms in 60Hz systems or 30ms in 50Hz. If this time is set
in lesser value, you will lose more sensitive the higher the
fault current is with respect to the configured pickup
current.
Figure 2-2 shows graphically what happens. At the
bottom there is a set of horizontal lines numbered. These
intervals represent the evaluation of the smART M-6279.
The vertical red line marks the point where the fault
begins. The green line indicates the magnitude of the
current phasor determined for each cycle of evaluation as
a continuous function.
It is possible to see that the intervals between evaluation 1 and 2 are above the fault and offer a
result that coincides with the crest of the wave. The interval 3 is mostly in the prefault section, but
it includes information of failure. As a result, the magnitude of the phasor is higher than in prefault.
The resulting size will grow as advances in successive assessments. The range of assessment
number 8 is the first of which contains only fault information.
If the pickup was set slightly above the first horizontal segment of the green line, the smART M-
6279 would be able to pickup from the cycle 3, which initiates the lifting of magnitude. However,
if we attempt to determine the direction of the fault from the cycle 3, the sensitivity would be very
low, because only exists a fraction of fault information. It is better to wait until the cycle 8. To
achieve this, the definite trip time should be cycle and a half.
If the pickup level was set slightly below the last horizontal segment of the green line, the pickup
level would not be reached until the interval 8. As a result, the trip would not happen until interval
13 (not shown in the chart).
This consideration does not apply generally to time overcurrent unit (51), because the time
begins to count from the pickup of protection and in general the trip times obtained are above of
the cycle and a half advised here for unit 50.
2.1.4.3 NEUTRAL DIRECTIONALITY DETERMINATION
The algorithm for determining the direction of neutral faults varies somewhat with respect to
phase faults. The algorithm is as follows:
The smART M-6279 evaluates whether or not to trip each of cycle of the operation
frequency
There is a memory unit that retains information from phasors calculated for the last of
cycle.
When 50N/50NS and / or 51N/51NS units start, a timer is reset. When you have passed
cycle and a half continues the implementation of the algorithm. This waiting period
ensures that the information that the algorithm will correspond to the system completely
faulted (no fault and pre-fault information mixture).
Then subtract to faulted system current phasor 4 cycles ago existing phasors. The
resulting phasors are compared in magnitude and choose the higher of them to
determine the directionality.
Finally, it is the same as in the determination of directionality of phases using selected
current and the corresponding voltage.

NOTE: Because the waiting time required by the algorithm (two cycles), a trip will not happen
before two cycles have exceeded the threshold defined for the pickup current of the unit.
2.1.4.4 PHASE TO PHASE FAULT TREATMENT
When te fault is a phase to phase fault, the treatment by the relay is different. First of all, the
phases involved are determined. This is given by the pickup of the 50/51 units. If the three phases
are involved, the algorithm used is the one described in section 2.1.4.2. In case of fault between
two phases, the algorithm changes as described then.
Systems with ABC sequence, Vab voltage and A current is used for AB faults. Vbc voltage and B
current for BC faults. Finally, Vca voltage and C current for CA faults. In case of CBA systems, for
BA, CB and AC faults, Vba, Vcb, Vac and Ib, Ic, Ia are used respectively.

2.1.14 RECLOSER
2.1.14.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A recloser is an electromechanical device for sensitizing and interrupting overcurrents caused by
a fault in a circuit, and also for making reclosures re-energizing the circuit. More than the 80% of
the faults in aerial distribution systems are of temporary nature; this is why the use of these
protection devices is very important.
The equipment allows up to 4 reclosers, with different times for phase to phase and phase to
ground faults, and programmable security time after manual closing and after automatic closing.
The recloser can be configured with single phase or three phase drive.

Instruction Manual
The 5 closure counters (total, first, second, third and fourth closures) are stored in non volatile
memory and can be displayed on the display. These counters can be set to 0 by keyboard.
2.1.14.2 DEFINITIONS
Surveillance status.
It is the normal status, during which the recloser monitors for the occurrence of any trips and
has to start operating.
Ongoing cycle status.
This status of the recloser is set throughout the entire process in which it is activated from the
first trip up to the closing of the breaker and the safety period has elapsed (successful reclosing)
or until all the programmed reclosings have been unsuccessfully executed. In the first instance
it moves on to surveillance and in the second to definitive trip.
Definitive trip status.
The reclosers final situation when it has executed all of the programmed attempts and the
breaker remains open, given that it is a permanent fault. Exit from this status can only be
achieved by closing the breaker manually.
Time for first, second, third and fourth closure.
It is the waiting time after the breakers trip until the recloser gives the closure order in each of
the closure phases.
Reclaim time after manual closing.
It is the time from the moment of circuit breaker manual closing; during this time it is watched
if there is a protection trip, and if this is the case, it will be continued to definitive trip instead
of to surveillance status.
Reclaim time after automatic closure.
It is the time from the moment of circuit breaker automatic closing; during this time it is
watched if there is a protection trip, and if this is the case the cycle will be continued instead of
moving on to Surveillance.
Close conditions time (optional use).
It is the time margin, after a protection trip, during which the close conditions must be fulfilled
to be able to continue the cycle.
2.1.14.3 OPERATION
The Figure 2-3 below represent the sequence of events for a recloser which has been
programmed for three reclosing attempts, with TR1, TR2 and TR3 as the corresponding reclosing
times, with a reclaim Tsec, for different situations:

Recloser out of service
This state is reached by pressing the push-button R on the keyboard, or control order. All
relays related to the recloser are de-excited.
This state is reached if the recloser function is disabled. This function can be performed by a
programmed button or a control command.
Definitive trip
Apart from the already mentioned causes, this status is reached by trip being the recloser
locked.
Recloser locked
This state is reached by activation of input or logic programmed as recloser locking. The
cycle is not started in it and comes out, if it was already started, moving on to Definitive trip if
the circuit breaker opens by a protection trip.
Manual operation during the cycle.
If during the operating cycle a manual order (or by command) is given to the circuit breaker,
the recloser aborts the cycle and moves onto idle status.
Digital outputs related to recloser (and which can be programmed as output relays):
- Recloser in ongoing cycle. Active from the moment when the circuit breaker opens by
rip until the Monitoring or definitive trip status is reached.

2.1.15 COLD LOAD PICKUP
2.1.15.1 DESCRIPTION
This function aims to avoid non wished trips in the following situation: after being the line de-
energized for a period of time and re-energized later, the load can exceed the protection setting
without the presence of a fault. What the function does is detecting when those conditions are
given and changing the tripping settings during a programmable time.
The function is activated when the current in the 3 phases is below 5% of the nominal current,
then the programmed time starts to run to determine that the load is cold (this time can be 0,
what means that any circuit breaker opening could lead to the cold load situation). Once that time
is elapsed and the current has not exceed 10% of the nominal value, the protection usual setting
values are replaced by the cold load pickup ones for a configured period of time.
2.1.15.2 SETTINGS (6 GROUPS)

2.2 OTHER FUNCTIONS
2.2.1 BREAKER FAILURE (50BF)
2.2.1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The aim of this function is to determine if a failure in the operation of the breaker has happened.
When the tripping signal is sent, a timer starts and when it reaches the value set as definite time,
if the currents in any phase are greater than the value set as phases restore current or the neutral
current is greater than the neutral restore current, then the breaker failure signal is sent. If the
open breaker (52b) digital inputs and the closed breaker (52a) digital inputs are assigned, the
working state of the breaker is also verified inspecting these inputs.

This settings change enables the increase of the protection functions operation times and allows the
protection fuses of the installation blow up before the breaker acts. When the ongoing cycle is

2.2.4 FAULT PASS
The aim of this function is to detect fault presence. Once it is registered a current greater than
pickup during a period of time equal or greater than the configured time then the relay considers it
as a fault.
Once the fault pass is detected, it means, fault existance and later drop out, the function waits a
configurable fault memory time. When this time is elapsed fault pass signal will be sent to the
circuit breaker, only if there is no presence of voltage in any of the voltage phases of the
equipment. The Figure 2-9 shows how the relay works.

2.3 METERING FUNCTIONS
The relay carries out the following measure functions:
2.3.1 DEMAND INTEGRATION
The demands is the average value in a defined interval named Demand integration interval (DII),
with units related to the electrical parameter measured (kW, kVAR, kVA, etc.)

The demands of the following smARTP500 relay parameters can be calculated:

Qa Phase a reactive power P3 3 phase active current
Qb Phase b reactive power Q3 3 phase reactive current
Qc Phase c reactive power S3 3 phase aparent current
The calculation method can be programmed as block or thermal demands.
2.3.1.1 DEMAND INTEGRATION
To calculate the block demand uses two user defined parameters;
Intervals to be integrated (IBI): is the number of intervals to be considered to
calculate the demand. It could be between 1 and 15. For direct integration (non rolling)
a 1 must be programmed. For rolling demand a value between 2 and 15 must be
programmed, normally 3 is used for rolling demand
Integrate every (IE): Is the period of time between two demand integrations and can
be selected from 1 second to 60 minutes. Normal values are 15 minutes for direct
demand integration (non rolling) and 5 minutes for rolling demand.
The total integration interval (TII) will be equal to the product of value of integrate every by the
number of intervals to be integrated : TII = IBI * IE

2.3.1.1.1 NON ROLLED OR DIRECT INTEGRATION
When TII = 1. The Figure 2-10 shows an example
for an interval of integration of 15 minutes.
In this type of integration the request is the average
of the instant values of the programmed parameter
along the interval of integration (IBI).



2.3.1.1.2 ROLLED INTEGRATION

In this case IBI > 1 and calculate the demand for each
programmed parameter, averaging the last interval to
be integrated (IBI)
In Figure 2-11 is shown an example for an integration
every 5 minutes (IE) and three intervals to be
integrated (IBI). Load has a profile as shown by a
curve, while the demand (average) is shown as
straight lines for every 5 minutes interval. The rolling
demand calculated for three 5 minutes intervals will
be as follows:



Demand at point 1 (IOI1) = (0 kW + 0 kW + 100 kW)/3 = 33.3 kW
Demand at point 2 (IOI2) = (0 kW + 1000 kW + 100 kW)/3 = 66.6 kW

Figure 2-10 Direct integration


Figure 2-11 Rolling integration

Beckwith Electric Co. Inc Protection, control and metering functions
smART M-6279

www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual
Demand at point 3 (IOI3) = (100 kW + 100 kW + 100 kW)/3 = 100 kW
Demand at point 4 (IOI4) = (100 kW + 100 kW + 200 kW)/3 = 133.3 kW
Demand at point 5 (IOI5) = (100 kW + 200 kW + 150 kW)/3 = 175 kW
As it can be seen, rolling makes the big values to be decreased by averaging with lower values.

2.3.1.2 THERMAL DEMAND
The thermal demand method is to approximate
the demand by measuring the thermal effect of a
mechanical device. Figure 2-12 shows this
method.
No rolled the direct and spun integration
methods, which follow immediately any change
happened in the load, thermal request has a very
slow response to those changes in the load. This
is why the value of the thermal request
measured in any moment depends not only on
the load measured in that moment but on its
previous values, what it is to say the average
load.

In the thermal demand the average is logarithmic and continuous, which means that the values of the
load are pondered, being their weights smaller as the time increases, having less and less influence in the
final result.
Thermal demand calculation algorithm is configured by defining the time within the thermal request
measure reaches the 90% of the value of a fixed load. The unit for that configuration time is the minute
and a typically used value is 15 minutes.
The algorithm is executed every second, so the thermal request value always exists unlike block
calculation method which obtains a new result every interval. Figure 2-12 shows the graphical behavior
of the thermal request, with a 15 minutes time constant and a constant load of 100, which is eliminated
within 60 minutes.
For the thermal demand calculation, this expression is evaluated every second:
k
D D
D D
c
) ' (
'

+ =
Where: D is the new value of the
request, D represents the previous
request value and Dc is the real value
of the variable the request is being
calculated for. k is a constant selected
so that the continuous evaluation of D
reaches the 90% of Dc within the time
configured (Considering Dc constant
during the evaluation time).
The algorithm represents a response
similar to the one shown in Figure 2-13

value of any group of its Actual Values, and also the consumption registered for any parameter from the
group Accumulators Miscellaneous in that period (acting as a pulse recorder).
This information is stored in the internal memory of the protection under the name of Load Profile

2.3.3 MEASURES (WAVEFORMS)
The proART software can configure and show graphically the waveform registers stored in the
internal memory of the protection. Waveforms are automatically stored every time there is a
protection function trip, besides the user can program a second trigger for the recording of the
waveform registers.
Additionally, these parameters can be programmed:
- Number of samples per cycle: It enables the possibility of selecting the recording format of
the waveform registers, between 16 or 32 samples per cycle.
- Number of cycles to record: Total number of cycles to record for a waveform register, which
will depend on the resolution selected in the preceding parameter. For 16 samples per cycle the
biggest number of cycles to store is 1090 and for 32 samples per cycle, 550.
- Cycles to record before the pickup stimulus: Selection of the pre-register or pre-fault cycles.
It can be a value between 1 and 20.
- Frequency driven trip recording (Steps 13): It enables the possibility of configure triggers
associated to the activation of the steps 1, 2 and 3 of the frequency protection function as stimulus
for starting the waveform registers recording.

2.4 CONTROL FUNCTIONS
2.4.1 DISTRIBUTION CIRCUITS RECONFIGURATION ALGORITHMS
2.4.1.1 INTRODUCTION
By smART M-6279 relays can be made automatism patterns of distribution networks. Three
algorithms are available: "with communication", "no communication" and "optimized without
communication". All three are designed to isolate a fault in an electrical distribution system and
rebuild the system so that the affected service is minimized. The algorithms operate locally, are
automatic and do not require any operator intervention to achieve its objectives
Even when it achieves the same aim, each mechanism has advantages and disadvantages. As its
name indicates, the reconfiguration mechanism with communication requires a medium to
exchange information between the relays that protect the line. However, the mechanisms "without
communication" require no such mode. The mechanism "without communication" sometimes
requires one additional operation of closure against the fault to isolate it effectively and the
mechanism optimized without communication requires that at least one reclosure to isolate
properly the fault.
The three algorithms represent a distribution line fed from both ends with an intermediate point
(link) that is initially open. When a fault occurs on the line, the algorithms then isolate the fault and
reconfigure the circuit by closing the intermediate point.
2.4.1.2 LINK SEARCHER WITH COMMUNICATION
When it is possible to have a communication channel that includes all smART M-6279 relays in
a distribution network, we can implement a system that isolates faults and rebuilds the system
optimally.
The end of the line is arbitrary defined as the left and the other as the rightextreme. You do
not need to save this relationship geometrically, and is used consistently in the configuration of the
protections. To do this, it is useful a horizontal schema that represents the line and each protection
installed with the feeders at both ends. This way will be clear which one is the left extreme and
which the right one.

Instruction Manual

Each smART M-6279 relay in the installation has a valid address only for this mechanism and
knows the address of the relay that is on its right and its left. To the left of the first device (counting
from the end) will be a feeder, as well as the right of the last one. This pair of relays has a slightly
different configuration from others.
2.4.1.2.1 CONFIGURATION
To configure the mechanism the proART software must be used. The Figure 2-14 shows the
corresponding screen:













The parameters to configure are as follows:
a) Enable the link search mechanism by choosing "YES" in the "Enable" box.
b) Assign to each device a different address filling in Local address box.
c) Register in each device the address of the device located immediately on its left and right
with the boxes Left address and Right address.
d) If the smART M-6279 relay is beside a feeder must be indicated by selecting the "feeder"
box in the corresponding end: to the left or right. In this case, it is also necessary to specify
the maximum power available from that feeder, so that the mechanism to calculate whether
a reconfiguration is supported or not by it. Registering a device beside a feeder the address
assigned to that end will be changed to 0 and can not be changed, since the address 0
specifies that this is a feeder.
e) The system is capable to generate SMS messages as a result of the isolation of faults and
reconfigurations. If you wish to incorporate this capability, it is needed to connect a GPRS
modem with a SIM card enabled and compatible with AT commands to any of the smART
M-6279 relays that make up the system using the COM1 port located at the rear of the
device. In that device set the number to be sent relevant messages. In other smART M-6279
relay, it is sufficient to state the address of the device that has the modem.
2.4.1.2.2 COORDINATION CONSIDERATIONS
To release a fault is required to coordinate the trip times of each protection as is usual: the closest
devices to the feeder should have a longer trip times to downstream devices, and shorter trip times
can release faults in their influence fields before the upstream devices work.

Instruction Manual
Basic tools available are the 50/51 units incorporated in the smART M-6279 relays. The curve
selection criterions for 51 unit and appropriate trip times for 50 unit are outside the scope of this
document.
smART M-6279 relays has 6 groups of settings. This automatism makes use of two of them:
current group when the automatism launches and the next group. If, for example, the current group
is 1, will be used in groups 1 and 2; if 2, will be used 2 and 3; if 6 will be used 6 and 1. In this
section we will refer to the group during the current implementation as the basic group and the
following as the alternate. In group alternate uses directional relay capability to define different
criteria for tripping faults forwards and backwards.
This use of the two groups answers the need for a coordinated protection system at the start of
the automatism and the end with a coordinate system after any reconfiguration. The Figure 2-15 is
used to describe the operation of the scheme:

For purposes of this description, we use numbers to indicate the relative position of a device
from the viewpoint of coordination. The higher the number, the faster the trip should be and vice
versa.
Each box represents a smART M-6279 relay with its breaker. Above each box there is a group of
3 numbers in two rows.
The higher row with only a number represents the position of the device on basic group.
Numbers are high because in initial state the configuration can contemplate relatively fast trips.
The lower row with two numbers, one positive and one negative. They represent the position of
the device on alternate group. The positive one corresponds with forward trips and the negative
one to backward trips.
From numbers in Figure 2-16 can be deduced that is intended to whatever point a fault is located,
the system is properly configured to isolate and then close the link point (in red). Lets see the
development of an example.
Suppose that the automatism has been implemented. The current setting group will be the basic
and we will have the system as shown in Figure 2-17. The configuration of the basic group is
active. The system operates with a relatively fast trips.

Instruction Manual


Because as it is coordinated the device number 2 will open to release the fault, making the
reclosure cycles scheduled. Once you reach the definitive trip, the device 2 informs the others. As a
result, the device number 3 opens to isolate the fault, the devices to the right of the fault change to
alternate group and the system is reconfigured as shown in Figure 2-18.

Devices 3 and 4 assume positions of negative coordination, because the load flow is backwards
(the power will come from the right side) respect its normal connection.
2.4.1.3 PUTTING IN SERVICE
In addition to configuring the points above, the smART M-6279 relay must be connected
together using the COM2 port on the rear panel. Depending on how they are configured, this port
can be RS-485 or optical fiber. We recommend the last one to avoid ground loops that can be
harmful for devices.
In case of being present, the GPRS modem must be connected to the COM1 port.
Once configured the devices that form the system "with communication", the automatism should
be implemented. This must be done on the computer that serves as a link between the two branches
of the line (intermediate point). This device can be any of the ones that compound the system
(except for those attached to the feeders). But usually is chosen a device that is more or less in the
middle of the circuit to distribute the load equitably between the two feeders.
Before putting in service the automatism, it is necessary to ensure that the breaker of the linking
device is open. In a similar vein, the other relays that compound the system should have its
breakers closed. If the breaker of the linking device was closed, or any breaker of the other devices
was open, the implementation of the system will be aborted.
The way to start the automatism is activating the internal flag eAutoBesTIE of the linking device. This can be
achieved using a digital input connected to a signal or a button also configured to modify the value of this flag.
Enabling this flag, the linking device communicates with others in the automatism. If everything is configured
correctly, a few seconds later, the internal flag AutoBTIEOn will be activated, confirming the implementation of
automatism.
2.4.2 AUXILIAR VOLTAGE SELF-DIAGNOSIS
In some applications, smART M-6279 is part of a control cabinet which has batteries and in these cases,
some battery state tests must be done periodically to check how they are working.
In order to make these tests, smART M-6279 must be configured properly and has to be connected as

used. This LED will show the state of the battery test.
7. It is also possible to program a LED with the flag rEPB (battery test in progress).
8. For making the test from the front panel one of the function buttons must be
programmed with the stimulus bTBAT (battery test). This button must be of type 2
(temporarily switched on) and with no confirmation.
2.4.2.2 BATTERY TEST ACTIVATION
The relay smART-P500 can execute this test helped by the external loader. There are three ways to
activate the start of the test:
Through a frontal button.
Through a remote command of a protocol (DNP, etc.).
Automatically.
2.4.2.2.1 THROUGH FRONTAL BUTTON
To activate the battery test through a frontal button, the protection must be in local mode and a button of
the frontal panel must have been programmed with the flag bTBAT as said in step number 8 of the
configuration. When this button is pressed, battery test function is executed.

Instruction Manual

2.4.2.2.2 THROUGH REMOTE COMMAND
This activation is done using DNP or other protocol; for this, flag dAcTB (Battery test
activation order) must have been mapped to a point in DNP. Once this order has been received,
internal flag rTBR (Remote battery test activation) is enabled and the function Battery test is
executed. Protection must be in remote mode for this activation works.
2.4.2.2.3 AUTOMATIC TEST
In this case the test must be activated from the relays configuration. Options in Auxiliary Voltage Self-
Diagnosis menu in porART software must be configured.
2.4.2.3 ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
If an activation order arrives when there is already an active test, the order is ignored.
If the automatic test is active but it has not started yet, and an activation order arrives
through a frontal button or through a remote command, the timer for the automatic test
is reset.
2.4.2.4 BATTERY TEST OPERATION
When the battery test starts, its correspondent output is enabled. It remains active during 5 seconds and
the rEPB flag is activated too, to indicate that a test started. smART M-6279 protection waits 0.5
seconds before monitoring the input programmed as eBT (battery test OK). If after 1.5 seconds this
inputs value is still 0 (inactive or without voltage), it means that for some reason the test cannot be
done and the protection passes to Battery failure state, activating the flag rTBE (battery test status). If
the input eBT is activated, that is to say, it becomes 1 (it has voltage), it means that the loader allows
to go on with the battery test.
If inputs eBB or eTAM are connected, they are monitored before starting the test and if their value is
1, the test is aborted passing to Battery failure and raising the flag rTBE.
If the loader indicates that the test can continue, smART M-6279 protection goes on supervising the
input ePBI (Battery test interrupted); if this input remains 0 during all the test period (30 min), all the
flags will be deactivated and the state will be Battery test OK (flag rTBE equals 0). If input ePBI is
activated (value 1) before the 30 minutes pass, Battery failure condition will be declared and the
flag rTBE will become 1.
If there is Battery test failure, the flag rTBE remains 1 until a new test is executed, or smART M-
6279 is initialized.

3 DEVICE CONFIGURATION
This chapter describes other settings of the relay, the configuration of digital inputs, logical and
digital outputs, LEDs, pushbuttons, communications ports, voltage auto diagnostic and activation
events of the smART M-6279 Multifunction Relay. Most configuration parameters can be modified
through the protection frontal panel buttons and/or through proART communication software.
3.1 CONFIGURATION THROUGH SOFTWARE
proART software makes possible the communication between a computer and the family of ARTECHE
branded protections. It is a Windows application developed with Visual Studio .Net 2005 platform, which
enables the interaction with program modules developed in different programming languages. It uses
efficiently object orienting programming, getting a harmonic and scalable design; it has an open data
structure that makes easier its maintenance and the addition of new functionalities.
The following sections can be configured through proART software:
Protection, control and measurement functions.
Inputs and outputs digital signals.
Leds and buttons from the frontal panel.
Communication parameters of the serial an Ethernet ports.
Communication protocols profiles for the different ports.
Programmable logical functions.
Waveform registers configuration.
IRIG-B synchronization.
Events enabling.
Auxiliary voltage self-diagnosis.
Daylight Saving.
proART software makes possible a visual interaction between the PC user and the protections within a
friendly environment, enabling an easy and intuitive configuration of the protections, guaranteeing a
proper use of them and minimizing programming errors. All windows include on-line help and the
protection User Manual is integrated in the application.

3.3.10 FREQUENCY (81)
3.3.10.1 MINIMUM/MAXIMUM FREQUENCY

Frequency function behaves differently to the rest of the functions. There are four operation steps for this
function, the first three steps are for provoking output signals to be used in the load disconnection
automatism in order to restore the system frequency conditions. The forth step causes the disconnection of
the main switch. This behavior can be modified through the logical functions.
The settings parameters of the four steps are identical for high (81M), low (81m) and derivate (81d)
frequency. The Figure 3-17shows the settings for the first step; the rest of then are programmed in a
similar way. The settings of the different steps must be coherent in order to get a gradual frequency
recovery as the loads are disconnected. This means that the steps pickup parameter must be ordered from
highest to lowest for low frequency and from lowest to highest for high frequency.
The adjustment parameters are:
Enable: It enables/disables the function. In case it is not enabled, it is not evaluated.
Pickup (Hz): Frequency value (Hz) from which the function is activated. For low frequency any
value under this parameter activates it, while for high frequency this happens with any value over it.
Constant time (s): Once the pickup value defined in the former parameter has been reached, this is
the period of time to wait before the protection starts operating.
Hysteresis: Frequency (Hz) variation range to consider that it (the frequency) has changed. It is
used to make the detection of a significant variation more accurate and to avoid continuous
evaluations of the function. Once the programmed variation level for the parameter is exceeded, it is
necessary for the function activation that the limit of the hysteresis level is overcome. If the
hysteresis level is 0, the function activation will happened every time the parameter is out from the
programmed level.

Instruction Manual


Up to 40 logical functions can be programmed. To Select a specific logical function, the node Set Logic
on the left panel of the window in the Figure 3-29 must be expanded. When selecting a SetLogic of the 40
available, the logics configuration window appears. This window includes the following panels or
sections:
Left panel:
Logic Status: List box for making the logic status selection (Active or Inactive). If the
logic is inactive, the rest of the panels are not shown.
Available flags: Tree list where all the flags that can be used as inputs for the AND and
OR gates are shown. These signals are grouped in Nodes according to their function in
the operation of the protection.
Right panel:
It includes 2 panels that show the gates combination that represent the logics as they are configured in the
memory of the PC and in the internal memory of the protection respectively.
Only the part related to the PC is editable. All the logics mechanism is composed of three gates, two input
gates (AND and OR) and a configurable gate that joins the result of the two input gates. The operation
criteria of these gates are the same used in the digital electronics.

Each signal can be inverted by double clicking on the input line of the gate where the signal is located; a
circle that indicates the inversion will then appear. In case of another double clicking on the same input,
the signal becomes direct and the circle disappears. This operation can also be done through the
correspondent button that lies on the upper panel on the right, clicking first on the input and then again on
the inversion button.
Adding an input to a gate can be accomplished in two ways:


Figure 3-29 Graphical system for the edition of the logical functions
Device configuration ckwith Electric Co. Inc
smART M-6279

24
www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual

In the signals list, double click on the desired signal and that signal will automatically
become the input signal of the AND gate. Double clicking the signal while pressing the
Shift button will make that signal become the input of the OR gate.
Drag the desired signal with the mouse and drop it onto the desired gate.

Up to 16 signals can be connected to each one of the gates. The gate inputs number automatically
increase or decrease as the inputs are added or removed respectively. To remove an input from a gate,
click on the input to remove; it will become red an after this click Del key or Remove signal button
from the upper panel on the right. When clicking on a signal located in any of the gates, a detailed
explanation of the meaning of that flag or signal will appear. When clicking a signal, the signals explorer
will automatically select that signal.
The equation that represents the selected logic is shown in the upper right panel; it is automatically
updated as the signals in the inputs of the gate change. To change the type of the third gate, click on the
opposite gate type name that appears above it.
The final results of the logics are represented in the software as rL + the logic number. These results can
be used as input signals for other gates; this enables nesting of the programmable logics. In order to
avoid a cycle without output in the evaluation of the logics, the software applies a validation system to
eliminate infinite recursions.

3.6 DIGITAL INPUTS PROGRAMMATION
All the digital inputs are user configurable. For each one of them the status and the associated stimulus
are configurable. In proART software, these parameters can be assigned graphically as shown in Figure
3-30.
Logic Status: Active or Inactive.
Input signal description: 16 characters string, stored in the equipment in order to
become a useful indication in future applications.

Instruction Manual

Available flags: It includes the set of stimuli which can be associated to the inputs.
They are listed at the end of this chapter.
Activation time: Time in seconds for the input signal to be present in order to be
considered active.
The final results of the inputs can be used as logic input signals, as outputs or as inputs for the LEDs
programming.
3.7 OUTPUTS PROGRAMMING
The type, character and the associated stimulus of each one of the protection outputs are configurable. In
proART software, these parameters can be assigned graphically as shown in Figure 3-31.


Output Type: This parameter tells the protection the behavior of the output. It can be one of the
following options:
Three Pole Output:
+ Three pole trip output. This kind of output is reserved for operating the main
breaker associated to the protection.
+ Three pole close output. It sends the close signal.

One Pole Output:
+ Phase A trip output. It sends the trip signal to the breaker of the phase A.
+ Phase B trip output. It sends the trip signal to the breaker of the phase B.
+ Phase C trip output. It sends the trip signal to the breaker of the phase C.
+ Phase A close output. It sends the close signal to the breaker of the phase A.
+ Phase B close output. It sends the close signal to the breaker of the phase B.

Instruction Manual

+ Phase C close output. It sends the close signal to the breaker of the phase C.

Three Pole/ One Pole Output:
+ General Output: Multiple use output, it has no restrictions.
+ Frequency Output: Special output that receives as stimulus the results of the
Frequency (81) function in the steps 1 to 3. It is used for sending actions that release
loads into the protection associated circuits and restore the frequency. The character of
this kind of output is obligatorily time output.
+ Inactive Output: If this option is selected, the signal is not in use, so the rest of the
options will not be shown.
+ Remote Control ON/OFF.
+ Remote Control Pulse.

Output Character: It represents the behavior of the output. There are 4 possible values for this
parameter:
Direct Output: The input signal (stimulus) is sent directly toward the output. The
Figure 3-32 shows an example of this kind of output, in which the stimulus is the
general trip of the protection (rGD).












To introduce a delay in the output activation, a value must be assigned to the Delay (s)
variable. This would be the value, in seconds, to wait until the stimulus signal is
applied to the output.

Time Output: The input signal is maintained during a period of time selected by the
user; after that time, the output will be reset if its input stimulus has disappeared. The
Figure 3-33 shows an example of this kind of output.

Figure 3-32 Direct Output
Beckwith Electric Co. Inc Device configuration
smART M-6279

www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual













Latched Output: The input signal is maintained active until a reset signal is received.
This reset signal is selected by the user. The Figure 3-34 shows an example of this kind
of output.












Inactive: If this option is selected, the output is not in use and no signal can be assigned
to the input.
Variable Minimum tim (s) is the minimum time in seconds the output will be present after
receiving a stimulus. After that time, if the initial stimulus is not present, the output will be reset.
Output 4 is of Solid State type; unlike the other outputs, which use relays, it admits lower
current levels. Outputs 10 and 11 are usually close while the others are usually open.
Available signals: It is a set of signals, grouped according to their nature. These groups are shown at the
end of the chapter.

3.8 LEDS PROGRAMMING
There are 18 programmable LEDs. The status, the LED Character and the signal associated to the LED
are configurable. In proART software, these parameters can be assigned graphically as shown in Figure
3-35.

Status: Active or Inactive. If the LED is in Inactive state, the rest of the panels are not shown.

LED Character: It expresses the behavior of the LED. There are 4 possible values for this parameter:
Direct Output: The signal goes directly from the stimulus to the LED.
Time Output: The input signal is maintained active during the time programmed in the
Delay parameter. After that time, the LED is initialized.
Latched Output: The input signal is directed to a SRQ block and is maintained active
until the Reset signal is received. This reset signal is applied by the user to a SRQ free
input; RESET signal is usually the one selected for this but any available flag can be
used too.
Inactive: If this option is selected, the LED is considered to be inactive and then no
signal can be assigned to the input. Used for internal tests.

Available signals: The set of available signals. They are listed at the end of the chapter.

3.9 KEYS PROGRAMMING
The keys configuration is very similar to the inputs configuration and the LEDs programming. The status
and the associated signal can be configured for each key. In proART software, these parameters can be
assigned graphically as shown in Figure 3-36.

Full scale value for DNP 3.0: It permits defining the voltage maximum values, current,
frequency and powers read by the DNP of the 16 bits to the relay. These values will be the
maximum values possible to be representing in 16 bits.
The sign of power factor means: It permits selecting which normative will be used to indicate
the sign of the power factor (PF).
The value of the following parameters can be adjusted for DNP protocol:
Analog variation: It permits defining if the values will be sent by default in 32 or 16 bits when
exists a class 0 petition, that is, when is not specified then the values are being required whit 32 or
16 bits.
Behavior for 16-bit analog: It permits selecting the format of the 16 bits analog values report:
Scaled or Standard behavior. If the option is Scaled then the relay will program the value to full
scale to DNP3, if not, the relay do not attend the program of the values and when they are greater
than the permissible to 16 bits (-32768 a 32767) then the relay will report overflows. It is important
to mention that if the option is Scaled the full scale value to DNP3 is not adequate to the voltage
and current level of the system (real values greater than those defined) will be reported like
overflows despite the scaling.
Outputs Operation mode: It permits selecting the operation mode of the outputs:


Figure 3-37 Communications Settings
Beckwith Electric Co. Inc Device configuration
smART M-6279

Instruction Manual

SBO (Select Before Operate): This operation mode requires double operation to change
the state of the outputs. The first prepares the operation and the second makes the
action. This is the safest control method because it requires two consecutive orders that
are identical except for the sequence number of the data frame of the application layer.
DO (Direct Operate): Opposite to SBO in this mode is not needed any operation
previous to select.
DONA (Direct Operate Not Acknowledge): The operation in this case is similar to the
DO mode, but in this case the equipment doesnt reply indicating if the asked operation
was performed or not. As there is no equipment reply, this is the least secure mode of
the three. However, this method enables that a group of equipments meet the same
operation simultaneously, sending a message to the broadcast address and with no
need of waiting for a reply after executing the command.
Dead bands: It permits defining the tolerance percentage or dead band percentage to the analog
values and the dead band value to the counters. While an analog value remains within the range
of dead band, the latest informed reading is still considered correct.
Control Type: It permits defining the way the protection outputs are controlled; it can be Single
Control or Double Control. When Single Control is used, each output or command is handled by
a single index (map point). Using this singe point, an output can be open or closed, and also a
command can be activated or inhibited. When using Double Control, there will be two indexes
per output or command. One of them will be used for closing the output or activating a command
and the other for opening an output or inhibiting a command. The control type doesnt apply to
outputs declared as direct remote control outputs (see below).

3.10.4 COMMUNICATION PORTS
The relay has 3 communication ports: 1
frontal RS-232 (RS-232C), 1 rear RS-232
(COM1) and 1 rear RS-485 (COM2) port.
The ports can be configured by console or
using the local keypad/display.
The Figure 3-41 shows some of the
parameters that can be configured:
Media: Transmission mode for the port: Direct, Modem or Radio.
Protocol: Selection of the communication protocol for the port. The following combinations are
possible:
Proprietary protocol and DNP 3.0
Modbus TRU protocol
Proprietary protocol and IEC 608070-5-101
Speed: Selection of the port speed in bauds (from 300 to 115200 bauds).
Time Delay for complete packages: This allows setting the time in milliseconds to complete
the transfer of a package that is already being received. If the transfer is not complete in this
period of time the protection refuses the package and will try to connect again until you reach the
number of DNP attempts programmed by the user.
Flow Control: The flow control can be made using RTS and CTS commands or keep it disabled.
Address of proprietary protocol: Shows and allows modifying the address of the proprietary
protocol, this address identifies the protection in a protection network.
DNP Address: Shows and allows changing the address of DNP protocol. DNP address and
proprietary protocol address can be the same as they are different protocols, but the address cant
be the same for a single protocol in more than one protection of the network.
DLL level retries: It allows defining the number of times the protection will retry to send a
packet after a connection error happens.

Time delay by confirmations: Period of time the protection will await confirmation of sending
data to remote computer through the port. If no reply within the time, protection will send again
the package. This option only applies when the user has selected the DNP Send/Confirm
transmission mode.
Unsolicited response enable: Enables or disables this parameter. Enabled, following settings are
shown:
a) Application layer retries
b) Destination address for unsolicited responses
c) Time delay by confirmations for unsolicited responses
d) Hold time before initiating an unsolicited response
e) Queued events before initiating an unsolicited response
Application layer retries: It is possible to choose a value between 0 and 15. Value 0 implies
infinite retries. Value 1 implies no retry at all.
Important note: If you change the configuration of the active communication port and send it to
the protection then the communication is reset and reads the setting of the protection again.

3.10.5 TCP/IP SETTINGS
The relay can optionally have an Ethernet port and communicate through TCP/IP and UDP/IP
protocols. IP protocol accepts multiple connections and they can be addressed to a communication
port. Because of this, the Ethernet connector will accept all the communication protocols supported
by the relay.

during its operation.
The configuration of the waveform registers is made using the proART configuration software,
as shown in Figure 3-46. Configuration parameters are:
Additional signal that initiates recording: The waveforms are records automatically each trip.
That is unalterable. But the user can program a second stimulus, selected from the list shown when
the button annexed to this option is pressed, to start the record of the waveforms.
Number of samples per cycle: It lets you select between 16 or 32 samples per cycle.
Number of cycles to record: Number of cycles which will be recorded in the registry. Values
allowed from 1 to 20 cycles.
Cycles to record before start signal: Cycles previous to the fault that will be saved, allowed
values from 1 to 10 (it is always smaller than the total number of cycles to save).
Record trips by frequency in steps 1 to 3: The user can decide if the trips of the function 81, in
steps 1 to 3 that are not acting on the main switch are stored in the waveform register or not.

4.1 INTRODUCTION
The content of this chapter follows the recommendations contained in the DNP3 protocol
specification (Basic 4 document set) to supplement (DNP3 V3.00 SUBSET DEFINITIONS
Version 2.00) and other related technical bulletins. To fully understand the contents of this chapter
is required to know the documents referenced. These can be obtained from the website of the group
of users DNP: http://www.dnp.org
The smART M-6279 offers a map of internal points and redirection tables. The tables are used to
configure the map points that can be explored using the protocol. Using the configuration software
proART it is possible to define the map points that will have the device to suit the needs of each
installation
The DNP3 protocol implementation at the smART M-6279 allows coexistence with the
proprietary protocol. That is, each message received by the smART M-6279 is examined to
determine the protocol that is encrypted, so that the computer responds adequately whether the
message is DNP3 or is smART proprietary protocol.
This is not the case with the MODBUS protocol. If a port is configured to work using the
MODBUS-RTU protocol, will only take applications coded in this protocol and not in any other.
The smART M-6279 has 3 serial ports. The DNP3 protocol is present in all of them, with the
possible exception noted in the preceding paragraph. Each port has an independent configuration in
relation to the speed (baud rate), address and others. However, all ports of the SmART M-6279
share redirection tables. This means that the points map for all ports is the same. It is not possible
to configure separate redirection tables for each port.
The Figure 4-1 shows the device profile required in the documentation of the protocol.

Table 4-1 Implementation of functions / objects and qualifiers
What is marked with gray background indicates objects, qualifiers and variations that are
supported by the smART M-6279, but are not part of the level 2 protocol implementation. The
relay responds to these objects and variations, but are not required for operation
4.4 REPORTS BY EXCEPTION
The smART M-6279 runs continuously a process called report by exception where the
parameters are compared with the parameters reported to the station master which is recovering
information from the relay. If there are major differences than configured in dead bands, an event is
generated.
When this happens, the event is sent to a queue that stores events in the order they are detected.
The event queue has a capacity of 99 events of binary inputs, 99 events of analog points and 99
events of counters.
It is recommended to scan smART M-6279 often in order to avoid these queues to be filled and
the loss of event data.
Another way to handle this situation is to expand the value of the configured dead bands to
minimize the number of events generated per unit of time, thereby reducing the amount of
information to be transferred out of the smART M-6279 to the master station and allowing the
scanning of information is more efficient
The dead-band limits are configured with software proART. When events of class 1 are required
to smART M-6279, events caused by binary inputs are reported. In class 2 there are the analog
channels events and in the class 3 counters events.

4.5 POINT LIST
The list of points is set using the software proART. It is compound of 50 configurable points for
binary inputs, 50 points for analog inputs, 50 for counters and30 for outputs.
All points configured using proART in external tables of points are included in scans of class 0.
Responses include up to the final configured point. If there are not configured points between the
top of the table and the last configured, the corresponding values are reported as 0.
4.5.1 ANALOG POINTS
Now, a list of the analog variables that can be configured using proART software is presented.
Column Scale is interpreted as an equivalence in engineering units.

Now, the digital outputs that can be configured via proART software are presented in two lists.
Outputs can work in any of these two modes: Simple index and separate indexes. When outputs
are configured to work with simple index, there is only one index to operate (open or close) the
controlled point with. When outputs are configured to work with separate indexes, there are two
indexes for each controlled point. One of them is used for opening and the other for closing.

4.6 ANALOG VARIATIONS
The smART M-6279 can answer the status of its analog inputs using variations of 16 and 32 bits.
In fact, using the proART software, you can define the variation that the smART M-6279 uses
when asked using the variation 0, choosing between 16 and 32 bits
In fact nearly all information of analog variables is in 32 bits. For example, the voltages are
reported in mV, currents in mA and power in W. By restricting the representation to 16 bits, almost
always will get an overflow value (more than 16 bits required to represent it). Because there are
applications that can not handle 32-bit values, there is a mechanism to scale the reported
magnitudes.
For this mechanism to work, make sure that the screen of setup of communications in the
software proART, the behaviour of 16-bit analogs is Scale and not Overflow Flag. This
behaviour is contrary to the spirit of DNP3, which requests representations of 16 and 32 bits are
one and that if the value can not be represented, marked as Overflow. However, being optional,
is compatible with DNP3 and allows, as mentioned above, the performance with applications that
are already operating
4.7 COMMUNICATION SETUP
The Figure 4-2 shows the communications configuration screen of the software proART. Its
described below.

4.7.1 FULL SCALE VALUES FOR DNP 3.0
In this box there are the values that are used to scale the readings that will be obtained when
request values using variations of 16-bit analog points. To ensure that the scaling works correctly
the 16-bit analog Behaviour should be set to Scale, otherwise, the values entered here are
without effect
There is a field for voltages, other one for currents, a third one for frequency and the last one for
powers.
In each of these fields must be introduced the maximum expected value for the indicated
magnitude. The value that is obtained when the point is read using 16-bit variations will result from
the following expression:

Vscale
Vmes
V

=
32767

Noting the equation can be deduced that when the measured value (Vmes) is equal to the value
declared at full scale (Vscale) the result is 32,767 that is the maximum size representable using
variations in 16-bit for analog points.
Any Vmes > Vscale will result a value greater than 32767 and will be reported as 32,767 with
the notation Overflow. The lowest value that can be obtained is -32768 which corresponds to a
negative similar measured value. Accordingly, it is recommended to leave a margin to handle
without problems exceptional circumstances. The margin should be chosen taking into account the

Instruction Manual

possibility of such circumstances, which necessarily vary from one installation point to another
point.
For example, if the nominal value of the work line is 5 amperes and can manage a maximum
load of 10 in a continuous, a reasonable range could be provided by a full-scale value of 12
amperes (20% margin).
4.7.2 DEAD BANDS
There are two dead bands. One for analog and one for counters. In the case of analog dead band
is expressed as a percentage of reading, while for counters is expressed in a number of accounts
represented in kilo units (kXh). Ie, kW, kvar, kVA, and so on, depending on the parameter referred
to a specific counter
4.7.3 SIGN OF THE POWER
The sign of the power factor (single phase and three phases) can be chosen between two
alternatives. The first one is perhaps the most widely used. In it, the sign indicates lag (+) and lead
(-).
The second option is more orthodox and represents the sign of the real power factor (the cosine
of the angle between V and I), which corresponds with the sign of the active power.
Choosing lag/ lead, the power factor will be positive in quadrants I and III, while it is negative in
quadrants II and IV. By choosing the sign of the cosine of the angle between V and I, the power
factor will be positive for the quadrants I and IV and negative for II and III.
4.7.4 OUTPUTS OPERATION MODE
Outputs and controls can be operated using DNP3 on any set of three modes:
SBO - Select before operate. In this mode is required prepare or select the operation of
the output by using function 3 ( select) of the application layer of DNP3 immediately
followed of the order of operation by using function 4 (operate). The application of
selection and operation must be identical, except for the function itself and the sequence
number of the application layer, which should differ by 1. Finally, the selection expires
after 1 second. That is, if you spend more than 1 second between the order of selection
and order of operation, it will fail as Timeout.
DO Direct operate. In this mode is not required to prepare or select output operation
previously. Just the order of operation by using function 5 of the application layer of
DNP3.
DO-NA Direct Operate, no acknowledge. This is the less secure mode of operation. It
is similar to direct mode operation. The difference is the absence of confirmation from
the smART M-6279 that received and accepted the order of operation. Uses the function
6 of the application layer of DNP3.
It is recommended the use of SBO mode, as it provides greater assurance than the other two.
However, there are situations where it is required to be even with the less secure from them (direct
operation without response) such as when trying to give the same order to a group of relays. In this
case, the order is sent using the broadcast address of DNP3 and requires for no answers to prevent
loss of data that would occur in RS-485 links if multiple devices respond simultaneously
The configuration of the outputs operation mode is applied to all the configured outputs. It is not
possible to configure different operation modes per each output.
4.7.5 FORMAT FOR ANALOG VALUES
In this box you can choose the change that the computer uses when it receives a request using the
variation 0 for the object 30 and in scans of class 0 and 2 (analog values). You can choose between
16 and 32 bits. Remember that if you intend to use 32 bits, you will most likely need to define the

full-scale values and behaviour to ensure that the analog 16-bit is set to Scale and not Report
overflows.
4.7.6 16 BITS VARIATIONS RESPONSES
In this box is configured the behaviour of the smART M-6279 when is asked for analog variables
using variation 0. In the documentation of DNP3, variation 0 is used to request that the device
responds with the appropriate variation or native.
As told in other parts of this document, using the 16-bit variation is recommended to select
Scale in this box and define the values at full scale so that the values obtained are useful.

4.7.7 DNP PARAMETERS
The Figure 4-3 shows the screen of DNP Parameters tab.

The window shows four sections. On the left side appears a list containing the points available
for use.
In the central section there are few indicators that can be selected if information displayed is
corresponding to analog points, counters, inputs or outputs. Also buttons to add, delete and delete
all.
The third section (middle right) is the list of points as the station master will see. This list has 50
points for analog inputs, 50 for counters, 50 for binary inputs and 30 for outputs

The fourth section (right) shows the active configuration at the smART M-6279. The fourth
section is for reference only to compare with the changes being made.
It is possible to operate in the window in several ways:
Selecting a point on the first section and using the "Add" button adds the selected point
at the end of the list in the third section.
By selecting a point on the first section and dragging it to a position in the third section
is added in the place where is dropped.
Selecting a point in the third section and using the delete button, the item is removed
from the configuration and returns to be present in the list.
Selecting a point in the third section and dragging and dropping it in the first also is
deleted from the list.
When using the Delete all, the list in the third section will be with all the points in
Not assigned.
As mentioned before, gaps can be left in the third list. The points corresponding to these holes
will be reported back to zero in class 0 scans or using qualifier 6 with object 30.

4.8 COMMUNICATION PORT CONFIGURATION

Figure 4-4 Communication ports configuration
In the box Media can be chosen between Direct and Modem. Communication using Direct
means, as its name indicates, that is made with a cable which connects the master station or PC
with the relay, while Modem should be selected when using a modem for communication.
The box Protocol allows you to select between Proprietary and DNP3 or MODBUS RTU. To
allow the operation of the software proART the protocol of the port to use must be Proprietary and
DNP.
The box Time delay by complete packages indicates the time (in milliseconds) that the relay
waits for a package before discarding it. In general, the data packages are sent contiguously by the
master station or PC where they originate. However, because of various reasons, one package can
be truncated. This parameter is used by the smART M-6279 to discard packages that have not
arrived in full within the specified time. Package means a communication unit at more basic level
of the protocol. In case of DNP refers to a package in the link layer. For the proprietary protocol,
refers to a package of up to 2048 bytes.
Flow control box is to activate the flow control using the RTS and CTS commands, or keep it
off.
The address for the proprietary protocol can be chosen between 1 and 65500. The address for the
DNP protocol can be established between 1 and 65519. These addresses are not linked. For ease, it
is suggested to be equal, but may be different.
In case of enable of transfers, more configuration options are shown.
The box DLL level retries for DNP has a dual purpose. Controls how the smART M-6279
sends data at the link layer (DLL or Data Link Layer). If the value is 0, the link layer sends
unconfirmed messages (SEND / NO REPLY). If the value is different from zero, the link layer
sends confirmed (SEND / CONFIRM) messages and perform as many attempts to send the
information as just one of those established in this box. In example, if the number is 2, the link
layer will try to send a message three times before discarding it.
The box Time delay by confirmations allows set the time in milliseconds that the protection is
waiting for confirmation of sending data to remote device through the port. If no response is
obtained at the time, the protection re-sends the package.
If you enable Unsolicited responses, new adjustable parameters for this feature are shown.
In the box Application layer retries you can choose between 2 and 15 retries, including the
option to retry infinitely, selecting the value 0, or by contrast, make no retries (value 1).
Other adjustable parameters are Destination address for unsolicited responses, Time delay by
confirmations for unsolicited responses, Hold time before an event and Maximum number of
queued events.

Instruction Manual

5 MODBUS RTU PROTOCOL
5.1 MODBUS IMPLEMENTATION
The MODBUS protocol is a protocol that has become an industry standard because of its
simplicity. The MODBUS protocol defines three implementations: ASCII, RTU and Modbus Plus.
The implementation on the smART M-6279 uses option RTU protocol, described in the documents
v1.1A MODBUS Application Protocol and MODBUS over serial line specification and
implementation guide V1.0 available on page http://www.modbus.org
The protocol can be used in any of the serial ports of the smART M-6279. When you select this
protocol to one or more ports of the smART M-6279, other supported protocols (DNP3 and
ArtCOM) are disabled.
The smART M-6279 serial ports operate simultaneously and independently from others. As a
result, mixtures of protocols are handled in a natural way. This means that the smART M-6279 can
operate one or two ports using MODBUS RTU while the others use DNP3 protocol or proprietary
(ArtCOM)
This document applies to version 1.03 of the operating software of the smART M-6279. Newer
versions of it may make improvements or changes that will be documented through revisions to
this document.
5.2 OPERATION
Before using MODBUS RTU, the smART M-6279 must be configured using the software
proART. To configure the smart with the software, start communication using a different serial port
where MODBUS is used.
After proART starts the communication with the relay, select Operations / Protection setting /
Communications / and the desired port to configure. Choice MODBUS protocol. Check the speed,
protocol, etc.. are apropriate.
The configuration is made using a window like the shown in Figure 5-1.
Then it will be necessary to revise and modify the tables of parameters. Consider the
implications of changes in these tables based on other protocols in use, because the table is unique
and not particular to each serial port. XXXX section contains additional information from the
tables of parameters.
5.3 SERIAL DATA FRAMES
Serial data frames are configurable. The options included are:
8 data bits, 1 stop bit, even parity (11 bits frame)
8 data bits, 1 stop bit, odd parity (11 bits frame)
8 data bits and 2 stop bits, without parity (11 bits frame)
8 data bits and 2 stop bits, without parity (10 bits frame)
Modbus RTU Protocol Beckwith Electric Co. Inc

www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual

The first three formats are widely used in MODBUS applications, being the first the most
widespread. Even though the MODBUS documentation does not include the last option available,
it is considered that can be useful if it is used with a modem to communicate with the smART, as
the 10 bits frames are a standard in telephonic modem devices. Each data byte is preceded by a
starting byte. The least significant bit is always sent and received first.
5.4 DATA PACKAGE FRAMES
The frame of the data packages, and verification algorithms based on CRC have been
implemented according to the MODBUS specification.
A complete sequence of request / response using the protocol includes the following bytes that
are sent in individual frames.
Request sent by master node:
Slave address 1 byte.
Function code 1 byte
Data Variable number of bytes depending on the function code
CRC 2 bytes to verify errors
Response sent by slave node:
Slave address 1 byte
Function code 1 byte
Data Variable number of bytes depending on the function code

Figure 5-1 MODBUS serial port configuration

Beckwith Electric Co. Inc Modbus RTU Protocol

www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual

CRC 2 bytes to verify errors
The slave address is the first byte of all the packages. Contains the address assigned by the user
to the device. Each slave device must have a different address if more than one is present in the
same communication cable. In packages sent by the station master, this field indicates the slave
(smART), while in the packages received by the master station indicates the direction of the slave
which responds.
The function code is the second byte of all the packages. The MODBUS protocol defines
function codes from 1 to 127. The relay uses a subset of these codes. In the transmission of a
request from the master node, this field tells the slave device the function that the master node
requests. If the function code in the response of the slave is the same, the requested function was
performed by the slave. However, if the most significant bit of the function code is 1, the slave will
indicate an error condition and is sending an exception code.
The field data contains a variable number of bytes whose length depends on the function code
that is requested or responded. It is the useful information exchanged between the master node and
slave node. This field contains the addresses of requested points by the master node or the result
produced by the slave.
Finally, the field CRC contains an error detection code. It is two bytes long and contains the
result of a numerical algorithm applied to data. When a device transmits a message, calculates that
value and adds it to the data package. The device receives the message, performs the same
calculation and compares its result with the code received. If the same result is got, the data
package is considered correct, while a difference causes that the package is considered wrong.
5.5 TIMES
Package synchronization on the MODBUS protocol is maintained using time restrictions. When
a device receives a message, must measure time elapse between the receipt of a character to the
next. If the transmission time equivalent to 3.5 characters without having received any further
information is elapsed, the device considers that the newly received information is complete and
checks the CRC, accepting or rejecting the message depending on the result of the comparison.
5.6 FUNCTIONS IMPLEMENTED IN SMART M-6279
The smART M-6279 relay is cappable to respond to next function codes:
03: Read input registers
04: Read holding registers
05: Force single coil
07: Read exception status
08: Diagnostics
16: Preset multiple registers
5.6.1 FUNCTION CODES 03 AND 04 READING OF VALUES
In the smART M-6279 implementation, the function codes 3 and 4 are interchangeable. Both
can be used to read values from the relay.
Each value has an address and its length is 16 bits (2 bytes). The most significant byte is
transmitted first. Up to 125 adjacent values can be read in one operation.
However, the expression of some values of the relay has a length of 32 bits. To obtain such
values, 2 points must be read in the same operation. If it is not so the result may be incorrect. The
16 most significant bits (MSB) are read first (have a lower address). The 16 least significant bits
(LSB) are read to the last (in the higher address).

Instruction Manual

5.6.2 FUNCTION CODE 05 COMMAND OPERATION
To run a command using the function code 05, in the value of the field that indicates the address
of the coil must be sent the number of the command to be executed, while in the field of the data
must be sent 0xff00 value. The number of command corresponds with the index of the output that
appears in the table of proART parameters shown in Figure 5-2. For example, if the output dOAA
(breaker opening order) is in the index 0 of the table, run the command 0 will open the breaker.
There is another way to execute commands, using function code 16. Either or both can be used.
More information in section 5.7.3 and page 10.


5.6.3 FUNCTION CODE 08 DIAGNOSTICS
Function 08 offers several mechanisms that can be used to verify the operation of the system of
communication between the master and the smART M-6279. This function uses a sub-function
code of two bytes in the request to define completely the required function.
The sub-function codes implemented in the relay are:

10 Clear counters and diagnostic register
11 Return bus message count
12 Return bus communications error count
13 Return bus exception error count
14 Return slave message count
15 Return slave no response count
5.6.4 FUNCTION CODE 16 WRITING OF VALUES
Using this function a set of values can be written in memory of the smART M-6279 in a single
operation. The values to write are always of 16 bits (2 bytes) and the most significant byte is
transmitted first. You can write up to 125 contiguous points in a single operation.
Only a small group of the available points can be written. See the memory map before you try
writing to a register. Some of the values that can be written have 32 or more bits. In these cases, it
requires all the points to be written in a single operation using this function code. The smART M-
6279 will reject partial writes to these points, except where indicated otherwise.
5.6.5 EXCEPTION CODES
When an error is detected (different than a CRC error), the smART M-6279 generates a response
containing an exception code to inform the master. Generated responses are the followings:
01 Illegal function. Is generated when the computer receives a request to perform a
function not implemented.
02 Illegal data address. This exception is generated when a writing or reading a
nonexistent address, when you try to write a record that is read-only, when trying to
write fewer points than those required to record a several points or when the point
information is invalid.
03 Illegal value of data. This exception happens when trying to enter invalid values in
one or more of the records covered by a write operation.
5.7 POINT MAP
To make easier the use of the smART M-6279 and its adaptation to various applications, several
configurable tables are provided to allow you to choose the points and the order in which they
locate.
This configurable point map is stored as a part of the configuration of the smART M-6279 and
can be modified with software proART. When modifying take in consider that the tables are shared
by the DNP3 protocol and other protocols and modifying them is affecting other applications that
may depend on the specific order and the presence of certain points
The points shares with DNP3 possibly with other protocols are in the range 100 to 620.
In addition to the points shared with DNP3 there are additional points with fixed address that can
not be configured from proART.

F03
Could be 1 or 5. To devices with nominal current of 1 ampere corresponds number 1, and to
devices with nominal current of 5 amperes, number 5.
F04
It is used to express numbers multiplied by 10. For example 65 indicates a value of 6.5, 1200
indicates a value of 120.0
F05
This format is used to send texts. Includes two 8-bit characters in each value using ASCII code.
The character stored in the high byte is the first one.
F06
16-bit unsigned number. The most significant byte is sent the first.
F07
This format includes hours and minutes. The hour is in bits from 8 to 15, while the minutes are in
bits 7 to 0. The hour information goes from 0 to 23. The minutes from 0 to 59.
F08
This format includes months and days. The month is in bits from 15 to 8, while the day is in bits
from 7 to 0. The month information goes from 0 to 12. The days from 0 to 31.
F09
This format has 32 bits and represents a date as the number of seconds since midnight of January
1, 2001. The value is compound of two points. Point with lower address has the most significant 16
bits, while the point with the highest address contains the 16 least significant bits.
F10
This format has 48 bits and represents a date as the number of milliseconds since midnight of
January 1, 1970. The value is compound of three points. Point with lower address has the most
significant 16 bits. The next contains de medium 16 bits while the point with the highest address
contains the 16 least significant bits.
F11
32 bit signed analog value. The value is compound of two points. This is a number represented in
the complement to 2 notation. This means that if the value (32 bits) is between 0 and 2147'483 .647
(2
31
1) is a positive number and can be used as it is. In contrast, if the value is between
2147483.648 and 4294967.295 should be subtracted 4.294967.296 to the obtained value. The
result will be negative in this case.
So if the value obtained is 1147'222.111, can be used as it is. But if the value is 3147745.185
should be minus 4294'967.296, obtaining -1147'222.111.
What represents the reported value in each point depends on the analog parameter configuration
table that can be view and modified using proART (Figure 5-3).Points 100 and 101 (first value)
correspond to point 0 of the analog table, 102 and 103 to point 1, etc... The table in proART
includes 50 locations (values 0 to 49) that appear in points 100 to 199.

F12
16 bits signed analog value. This is a number represented in the complement to 2 notation. This
means that if the value (16 bits) is between 0 and 32767 is a positive number and can be used as it
is. In contrast, if the value is between 32768 and 65535 should be subtracted 655336 to the
obtained value. The result will be negative in this case
If the obtained value is 1.111, it can be used as it is. But if the value is 64.425, should be minnus
65.536, obtaining -1111.
What represents the reported value in each point depends on the analog parameter configuration
table that can be view and modified using proART (Error! No se encuentra el origen de la
referencia.). Point 300 (first value) corresponds to point 0 of the analog table, 301 to point 1, etc...
The table in proART includes 50 locations (values 0 to 49) that appear in points 300 to 349.
F13
32 bits unsigned counter. The value is compound of two points. The point with lower address has
the most significant 16 bits, while the point with the highest address contains the 16 least
significant bits.
What represents the reported value in each point depends on the counter parameter configuration
table that can be view and modified using proART (this table appears selecting the option

Counters in the windows of Error! No se encuentra el origen de la referencia.). Points 400
and 401 (first value) correspond to point 0 of the counter table, 102 and 103 to point 1, etc... The
table in proART includes 50 locations (values 0 to 49) that appear in points 400 to 499.
F14
The points in this format represent the value of binary inputs. Each input can take the binary
value 0 (inactive) or 1 (active). In each point is reported the value of 16 binary inputs. Since this
format is 4 points, there is the capability to report the value of 64 binary inputs
What represents the reported value in each point depends on the input parameter configuration
table that can be view and modified using proART (this table appears selecting the option Inputs
in the windows of Error! No se encuentra el origen de la referencia.). The bit 0 of the point 600
corresponds to input 0. The bit 1 of the same point corresponds to input 1, and so on up to the bit
15 that has the information of the input 15. The bit 0 the point 601 corresponds to the input16 and
continues the same sequence up to the bit 1 of the point 603, which represents the value of the
input 49. The rest of the bits of the point 603 are 0.
F15
The format is the same as F06: a 16-bit unsigned number. However, only is accepted the writing
of values between 0 and 699. If you try to write a value outside this range, the smART M-6279 will
generate an exception 3. Even though it makes no sense, it is possible to repeat values.
IMPORTANT: Data such as date and time or point 80 (command execution) can be selected to
appear on the user map, but will not be possible to write them for actions.
F16
This really is not a format. The data marked with the format F16 actually has a format that
depends on the original format. That is, the F16 is a wild card format
Corresponds to the value of the user map. Then, the format of each value depends on the value
itself, which in turn depends on the address stored in the address area of the user map.
5.7.3 COMMAND EXECUTION (POINT 80)
There are two ways of operating commands (outputs) using the MODBUS protocol. One is to
write in point 80 the number of the output you want to operate. The outputs available and their
correspondence to actual outputs can be viewed and modified using the software proART. This
table appears selecting the option Outputs in the windows of Error! No se encuentra el origen
de la referencia.. For example, to operate the output with index 0 in the table, a 0 is written in the
point 80.
5.7.4 USER MAP
To facilitate the coexistence in this system, there is a further table that allows the reading of non-
consecutive records in a single message. This table is called the user map as it can be modified
using the MODBUS protocol.
It has an address area (between the point 700 and point 899 - 200 entries) and a zone of values in
the user map (between the 900 and the 1099 - 200 entries).
In the address area is written, using the function 16, the addresses of those points want to read.
There is a one to one relationship between these two areas. The point 700 contains the address of
the point to be read in section 900. In 701 there is the direction of the point 901, etc
Then, by reading the value area will read the data whose addresses are configured.
You can read or write any set of points in these two areas, if not exceeding the end of them.
NOTE: The values in the address area are stored in battery-backed memory. Because of this, it is
not necessary to write continuously the information in this zone. Just every time that a change is
made. This address area is different for each port. That is, if there are two ports of the smART M-

6279 and both are required to use the user map, it will be needed to configure the map for each one
separately.
5.7.5 32 AND 16 BITS ANALOG POINTS
Points from 100 to 199 contain 32 bits analog values, while the points from 300 to 349 contain
values of 16 bits. Both ranges of values refer to the same points in two different representations.
With 16 bits you have a smaller value, which is transmitted more quickly, but with lower
resolution. The maximum resolution is obtained using 32-bit.
The points of 16-bit are a scaled version of 32-bit points. In the General tab of the
configuration of DNP communications are shown full-scale values that are used to scale the values
of 32 bits. Figure 5-4 shows the window and the selection of the values at full scale is at the top
left.

To obtain the real value, the scale is deleted using the expresion:
32768
*
i
Value FullScale
Value =
Where FullScale is the configured value, Value
i
is the received value for the 16 bit point, and
Value is the not scaled result. Accordingly, the full-scale values represent the maximum that is
expected to this point. Any higher value will not be represented using 16 bits and will give wrong
results.
WARNING: The options in the box 16 bits variations responses only affect the DNP3
protocol. In the MODBUS protocol, there is no way to report on conditions overflow.
Consequently, this election does not apply.
5.7.6 EVENTS READING
The reading of events is done through a mechanism that is described in this section. The
mechanism allows the reading of events in groups up to 31 events. Event means any change in
status in the configured digital inputs. Each event includes the state in which the input was and the
date and time at which the change happened. At one moment, there can be any number of events
waiting to be read. If there were more than 31, will be present in 31 of 31 until end the events that
have not been read by the master.
To ensure that the master has read the events that are reported, there is a mechanism by which
the master tells the smART M-6279 have read the events and then allowing the relay to report
additional events, if any.
The number of events available to be read is investigated by reading the point 1100. The number
read may be between 0 and 31. This point should be read alone. A reading of more than one point
from index 1100 will fail and the smART M-6279 will indicate that the exception 2 has occurred.
Each reading of section 1100 causes that the smART M-6279 re-investigates the number of events
available. It is not required then perform a reading of events immediately after reading the point
1100. Section 1100 can be read as many times as you want and make the event information reading
when considered appropriate (maybe waiting for 31 events).
Once known the number of events available, those can be read from the point 1102. Requires
that the reading must always be done from the point 102. Moreover, the number of points read
must be a multiple of 4 (required to be read events in full). Finally, the number of read events can
not exceed the number of events available (the indicated ones in the final reading of section 1100).
However, it is possible to read less number of events than specified in section 1100.
Each event is compound by the information contained in 4 points.
The first, with the lowest index, contains the number of the event in bits 6 to 0. 7 to 14
bits are always 0. Bit 15 indicates the status of the input after the change (1 or 0).
The following three points have a value of 48 bits, ordered from most to least
significant. Represents the date and the number of milliseconds elapsed since midnight
on January 1, 1970 (using format F10).
The following is an example of an event, where the information is read in sections 1102 to 1105:
1102: 0x8001
1103: 0x011D
1104: 0xD367
1105: 0xF588
In the example, the value 0x8001 indicates that the flag whose index is 1 changed to 1 (bit 15
is 1). In addition, it indicates that the date of change is 0x011DD367F588, equivalent to
1227.612485.000 milliseconds elapsed since the beginning of January 1, 1970. This equals to
November 25, 2008 at 11:28:00 with 0 milliseconds.

Instruction Manual

As used 4 points for each event can be read up to 31 events in a MODBUS message with
function code 3 or 4.
Once the master station has read the events, it must indicate this specifically. This is done by
writing any value at point 1101. Once the smART M-6279 receives the writing in point 1101,
considers that the master has already read or does not require the events available. As many events
as indicated in the final reading of point 1100 are discarded. That is, if in the process included from
reading the number of available events, reading the event information and writing of point 1101
additional events occur, are not lost. Could be recovered once the station master re-reads the 1100.
In summary, to retrieve the events information the master station must implement the following
algorithm (in pseudo code):
ReadEvents()
{
NEvt = ReadPoint(1100)
While (NEvt != 0)
{
Evts() = ReadRange(1102,4*NEvt)
ProcessEvts(Evts())
WritePoint(1101,0)
NEvt = ReadPoint(1100)
}
}
ReadEvents() function should be called often enough not to lose events. ProcessEvts() should do
whatever it takes to process the events received.

Instruction Manual

6 HARRIS 5000 PROTOCOL
6.1 INTRODUCTION

Harris 5000/5500/6000 protocol is a protocol developed by Harris (GE Harris) in 1983 for
communication with RTUs. It has been used primarily in North America. The difference is
basically the commands introduced in 6000 extended.
The same company later developed a more advanced protocol that was the DNP.
The implementation developed at the smART M-6279 fits to HR5000. This protocol is half-
duplex based on master / slave.
The protocol can be used in any of the serial ports of the smART M-6279. When you select this
protocol to one or more ports of the smART M-6279, other supported protocols (ArtCOM, DNP3
and MODBUS) are disabled.
The serial ports of the smART M-6279 operate simultaneously and independently of others. As a
result, mixtures of protocols are handled in a natural way. This means that in the smART M-6279
one or two ports can operate using HR5000 while the others use DNP3, MODBUS protocol or the
proprietary (ArtCOM).
All ports of the smART M-6279 configured with HR5000 share point configuration tables. This
means that the point map for all ports HR5000 is the same. You can not configure separate tables
per each port.
This document applies to version 2.03 of the operating software of the smART M-6279. Newer
versions of it may incorporate improvements or changes that will be documented through revisions
to this document.
6.2 PROTOCOL FEATURES
6.2.1 MESSAGE STRUCTURE
The messages are structured in characters each one with 1 start bit, 7 data bits, odd parity and 1
stop bit.
In the 7 data bits, the seventh indicates the direction of message (SOM bit). Only the first byte of
a frame in a Master -> RTU direction will take this bit set to 1.
A complete sequence of request / response using the protocol includes the following bytes that
are sent in individual frames.
Requests sent by the master node:
Slave address 1 byte. (Bit SOM set to 1 + 6 bits for address)
Function code 1 byte (6 bits)
Data Variable number of bytes depending on the function code (6 bits per byte) (from
0 to 7 characters)
LRC 1 byte with the LRC algorithm for error checking (6 bits)
Harris 5000 Protocol Beckwith Electric Co. Inc
smART M-6279

www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual

Responses sent by the slave node:
Slave address 1 byte. (Bit SOM set to 1 + 6 bits for address)
Function code 1 byte (6 bits)
Data Variable number of bytes depending on the function code (6 bits per byte) (from
0 to 457 characters)
LRC 1 byte with the LRC algorithm for error checking (6 bits)
The slave address is the first byte of all the packages. Contains the address assigned by the user
to the device. Each slave device must have a different address if more than one is present in the
same communication cable. In the packages sent by the station master, this field indicates the slave
(smART), while in the packages received by the master station indicates the direction of the slave
that responds.
Bit SOM (Start of Message), the seventh bit of a byte, is set to one only by the master in the first
byte of a frame, the one which includes the slave address.
The function code is the second byte of all the packages. The HR5000 protocol defines function
codes from 0 to 16. The smART uses a subset of these codes.
The field data contains a variable number of bytes whose length depends on the function code
that is requested or responded. It is the useful information exchanged between the master node and
slave node. This field contains the addresses of requested points by the master node or the result
produced by the slave.
Finally, the field LRC (Longitudinal Redundancy Check) contains an error detection code. It is
one byte long and contains the result of the XOR of all the characters of the message. When a
device transmits a message, calculates that value and adds it to the data package. The device
receives the message, performs the same calculation and compares its result with the code
received. If the same result is got, the data package is considered correct, while a difference causes
that the package is considered wrong.
6.2.2 PORT DEFINITION
An HR5000 RTU is organized in ports with a capacity of 7 ports as maximum. Each port can be
configured in one of the following types: Analog Inputs, Accumulators, Indication Inputs and
Control Commands, Up / Down Outputs, Analog Outputs and SOE (sequence of events).
In some of the messages sent by the master, we find references to the index of the port. This
reference is not an absolute reference, is relative to the type of port.
For example if we have two ports, 6 and 7, configured as Up / Down and is wanted to refer to
the first one, we refer to it as port 0, and 1 will refer to 7.
As Analog Inputs and Accumulators ports are treated with the same function, both are considered
the same type in terms of relative port numbering.
Each port has 3 status bits which reflect the status of each port. This information is sent to the
station master on the content of the response to some commands. These 3 bits are:
OL: Off Line. Port out of service.
PF: Power Fail. Port reset.
MF: Failure of internal transfer of the port, or number of changes requested does not match
with reported
6.2.3 COMPLETE MESSAGE
Both sending and receiving messages can have fixed length and variable length. In consideration
of receiving a message is complete, and therefore we must check its LRC, is based on the function
code and the configuration of ports

6.3 CONFIGURATION
Before using HR5000, the smART M-6279 must be configured using the software proART. To
configure the smART with the software, start communication using a serial port different than
where HR5000 will be used.
Once proART communicates with the smART, select Operations / Device configuration /
Communications / and setup the desired serial port. Change the choice of protocol to HR5000.
Check that the speed, protocol, etc... are correct.
Then it will be necessary to revise and modify the tables of parameters. Consider the
implications of changes in these tables based on other protocols in use, because the table is unique
and not particular to each serial port. XXXX section contains additional information from the
tables of parameters.
6.3.1 SERIAL PORT CONFIGURATION
HR5000 default protocol communicates at 9600 baud with 7 data bits, 1 stop bit and odd parity.
But this is configurable, allowing the change of all these parameters from the setup program
proART.

6.3.2 DATA PORT CONFIGURATION
The information given by the smART M-6279 in the HR5000 protocol is assigned in groups of
points. These groups of points, in HR5000 terminology, are called Ports. According to the protocol
can be 7 ports. Each port can be of a type of the following: Analog Inputs, Accumulators, Binary
Inputs and Binary Controls.

Instruction Manual

Later, the information points submitted by the smART M-6279 will be assigned to each port.
They can have configured up to 32 points of Binary Inputs and Analog Inputs type, 8 of
Accumulator type and 16 of Binary Control type.

6.3.3 FULL SCALE VALUES
In this box there are the values that are used to scale the readings that will be obtained when
requested analog values. To ensure that the scaling works properly 16 bits variation responses
should be set to Scaled, otherwise, the values entered here are without effect.
There is a field for voltages, one for currents, one for frequency and the fourth one is for powers.
In each of these fields must be entered the maximum expected value for the indicated magnitude.
The value that will be obtained when the point is read using scaling will result from the following
expression:
VScale
VMess
V

=
4095

www.beckwithelectric.com
Instruction Manual


Figure 6-3 Scale configuration
Noting the equation can be deduced that when the measured value (VMess) is equal to the value
declared at full scale (VScale) the result will be 4095 which is the maximum size for 12-bit analog
points.
Any VMess > VScale will result a value greater than 4095 and therefore will be reported as
4095. Accordingly, it is recommended to leave a margin to handle without problems exceptional
circumstances. The margin should be chosen taking into account the possibility of such
circumstances, which necessarily vary from one installation point to other.
To obtain the real value, the scale is removed using the following expression:
4095
*V VScale
VMess =
For example, if the nominal work value of the line is 5 amperes and can manage a maximum
load of 10 in continuous, a reasonable range could be provided by a full-scale value of 12 amperes
(20% of margin).

6.4.2.1 DATA DUMP
This function requests information from the analog ports and counters indicating the number of
points to be reported for each port. Values are reported in 12 bits each. If the number of ports
configured does not correspond, then there is no answer. The order in which ports are required is
the relative order of the configuration of this type of ports (Analog and Accumulators). If more
points than configured are requested from a certain port, then they are filled with zeros. If no point
is requested from a port, then it is not sent either the status byte of the port.

6.4.2.2 STATUS CHANGE CHECK
Requests the number of changes of digital inputs stored. It returns the number of changes in
digital inputs. At one moment, there can be any number of events waiting to be read. If there were
more than 62, they will be presented in groups of 62 until end the events that have not been read by
the master.
Each request of the number of changes causes that the smART M-6279 must re-investigate the
number of events available. It is not required then to perform a reading of events immediately after.
The number of changes can be read as often as desired and make the event information reading
when considered appropriate (maybe waiting to accumulate 62).
6.4.2.3 STATUS CHANGE DUMP
Requests a number of digital inputs changes. It returns a list with the number of changes
required, in order of occurrence and without time. Each event reports the state that the input was.
The number reported in a previous command Check Status Change or Data Dump must be
requested. If requested another number, then there will be an error response. The answer consists in
the incorrect number of requested changes, but all zero except the MF bit set to 1, to report this
error.
After an execution of this command, if the next command is a Status Change Dump command
again, the list of events will be forwarded. If the command received is any other, then it is
considered that the events have been received correctly in the master and the reported changes are
deleted.
6.4.2.4 STATUS DUMP
Requests the current state of binary inputs indicating the number of points to report for each port.
If the number of ports does not correspond with configured then there is no answer. If you want
more points than configured for certain port, then they are filled with zeros. If a port has not been
requested for points (0 points), then either the port status byte is sent.
After an execution of this command all events stored in the changes queue are deleted.
6.4.2.5 CONTROL ARM
The paradigm of operation to act on a control point is the selection / operation model. First you
must select the point and then operate on it.
When receiving this message, a point to operate is selected. Must be followed immediately by
the order of operation. The application of selection and operation must be equal, except for the
function itself and the byte Number of the point will be in inverted logic. Finally, the selection
expires after 1 second. That is, if spends more than 1 second between the order of selection and
order of operation, it will not run.
If the following command to the selection is not an operate, then the selection is deleted.
Only are accepted complementary controls, and therefore only are accepted Close commands
on configured points. In local or blocked mode, then there is no answer.
6.4.2.6 CONTROL OPERATE
Operates on a previously selected point. If the timeout has been reached between selection and
operation, if it spends more than 1 second between the order of selection and the order of
operation, it will not run and will not respond anything to the master.
Only are accepted complementary controls, and therefore only are accepted Close commands
on configured points. In local or blocked mode, then there is no answer.
If the message does not match with expected or if a point has not been previously selected, it will
not act and is not responding to the master.
