Logic upon which individual features are designed is fixed, and all other logic, from digital input signals throughelements or combinations of elements to digital outputs, is variable. The user has complete control of all variable logicthrough FlexLogic. In general, the system receives analog and digital inputs which it uses to produce analog and digital out-puts. The major sub-systems of a generic UR-series relay involved in this process are shown below.Figure 5–40: UR ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEWThe states of all digital signals used in the C70 are represented by flags (or FlexLogic operands, which are described laterin this section). A digital “1” is represented by a 'set' flag. Any external contact change-of-state can be used to block an ele-ment from operating, as an input to a control feature in a FlexLogic equation, or to operate a contact output. The state of thecontact input can be displayed locally or viewed remotely via the communications facilities provided. If a simple schemewhere a contact input is used to block an element is desired, this selection is made when programming the element. Thiscapability also applies to the other features that set flags: elements, virtual inputs, remote inputs, schemes, and humanoperators.If more complex logic than presented above is required, it is implemented via FlexLogic. For example, if it is desired to havethe closed state of contact input H7a and the operated state of the phase undervoltage element block the operation of thephase time overcurrent element, the two control input states are programmed in a FlexLogic equation. This equation ANDsthe two control inputs to produce a virtual output which is then selected when programming the phase time overcurrent tobe used as a blocking input. Virtual outputs can only be created by FlexLogic equations.Traditionally, protective relay logic has been relatively limited. Any unusual applications involving interlocks, blocking, orsupervisory functions had to be hard-wired using contact inputs and outputs. FlexLogic minimizes the requirement for aux-iliary components and wiring while making more complex schemes possible.EnerVista UR Setup and LAN communicationsDCmAorRTDinputsVTsCTs DSP(A/D)827022A7.cdrAnaloginput(A/D)CalculateparametersContactinputsKeypadVirtualinputsRemoteinputs(GOOSE)ORfiberG.703RS422DirectinputsControlandmonitoringfeaturesBlockoperation(eachelement)MeasuringanddecisionelementsFlexLogic™equationsFlagsFlexLogic™countersVirtualoutputsDigitalelementsV IForm-A andSCR onlyContactoutputsDisplayand LEDsRemoteoutputsDisplayAnalogoutput (D/A)(dcmA)DirectoutputsFiberG.703RS422(Status)(Status)(Actual values)(FlexLogic operands)
