5-222 L60 Line Phase Comparison System GE Multilin5.6 CONTROL ELEMENTS 5 SETTINGS55.6.8 DIGITAL COUNTERSPATH: SETTINGS ÖØ CONTROL ELEMENTS ÖØ DIGITAL COUNTERS Ö COUNTER 1(8)There are 8 identical digital counters, numbered from 1 to 8. A digital counter counts the number of state transitions fromLogic 0 to Logic 1. The counter is used to count operations such as the pickups of an element, the changes of state of anexternal contact (e.g. breaker auxiliary switch), or pulses from a watt-hour meter.• COUNTER 1 UNITS: Assigns a label to identify the unit of measure pertaining to the digital transitions to be counted.The units label will appear in the corresponding actual values status.• COUNTER 1 PRESET: Sets the count to a required preset value before counting operations begin, as in the casewhere a substitute relay is to be installed in place of an in-service relay, or while the counter is running.• COUNTER 1 COMPARE: Sets the value to which the accumulated count value is compared. Three FlexLogic™ outputoperands are provided to indicate if the present value is ‘more than (HI)’, ‘equal to (EQL)’, or ‘less than (LO)’ the setvalue.• COUNTER 1 UP: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for incrementing the counter. If an enabled UP input is receivedwhen the accumulated value is at the limit of +2,147,483,647 counts, the counter will rollover to –2,147,483,648.• COUNTER 1 DOWN: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for decrementing the counter. If an enabled DOWN input isreceived when the accumulated value is at the limit of –2,147,483,648 counts, the counter will rollover to+2,147,483,647.• COUNTER 1 BLOCK: Selects the FlexLogic™ operand for blocking the counting operation. All counter operands areblocked.
