869 Motor Protection System
Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction
The Multilin 869 relay is a microprocessor-based unit intended for the management and
primary protection of medium and large sized motors. Base relay models provide thermal
overload and overcurrent protection plus a number of current and voltage based backup
functions.
Overview
The relay features an enhanced thermal model with custom curves, current unbalance
biasing, voltage dependent curves and running and stopped exponential cooling curves.
An optional RTD module allows for the thermal model RTD bias function. Motor start and
supervision functions include thermal inhibit, maximum starting rate, time between starts,
restart delay, acceleration time, and emergency restart. Mechanical jam, current
unbalance elements and VFD application support are also included as basic functions.
Stator differential, sensitive directional power and phase/neutral directional elements are
more advanced features.
These relays contain many innovative features. To meet diverse utility standards and
industry requirements, these features have the flexibility to be programmed to meet
specific user needs. This flexibility will naturally make a piece of equipment difficult to
learn. To aid new users in getting basic protection operating quickly, setpoints are set to
typical default values and advanced features are disabled. These settings can be
reprogrammed at any time.
Programming can be accomplished with the front panel keys and display. Due to the
numerous settings, this manual method can be somewhat laborious. To simplify
programming and provide a more intuitive interface, setpoints can be entered with a PC
running the EnerVista 8 Setup software provided with the relay. Even with minimal
computer knowledge, this menu-driven software provides easy access to all front panel
functions. Actual values and setpoints can be displayed, altered, stored, and printed. If
settings are stored in a setpoint file, they can be downloaded at any time to the front panel
program port of the relay via a computer cable connected to the USB port of any personal
computer.

Description of the 869 Motor Protection System
CPU
Relay functions are controlled by two processors: a Freescale MPC5125 32-bit
microprocessor that measures all analog signals and digital inputs and controls all output
relays, and a Freescale MPC8358 32-bit microprocessor that controls all the advanced
Ethernet communication protocols.
Analog Input and Waveform Capture
Magnetic transformers are used to scale-down the incoming analog signals from the
source instrument transformers. The analog signals are then passed through a 11.5 k Hz
low pass analog anti-aliasing filter. All signals are then simultaneously captured by sample
and hold buffers to ensure there are no phase shifts. The signals are converted to digital
values by a 16-bit A/D converter before finally being passed on to the CPU for analysis.
The 'raw' samples are scaled in software, then placed into the waveform capture buffer,
thus emulating a digital fault recorder. The waveforms can be retrieved from the relay via
the EnerVista 8 Series Setup
Frequency
Frequency measurement is accomplished by measuring the time between zero crossings
of the composite signal of three-phase bus voltages, line voltage or three-phase currents.
The signals are passed through a low pass filter to prevent false zero crossings. Frequency
tracking utilizes the measured frequency to set the sampling rate for current and voltage
which results in better accuracy for the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) algorithm for offnominal frequencies.
The main frequency tracking source uses three-phase bus voltages. The frequency
tracking is switched automatically by an algorithm to the alternative reference source, i.e.,
three-phase currents signal if the frequency detected from the three-phase voltage inputs
is declared invalid. The switching will not be performed if the frequency from the
alternative reference signal is detected invalid. Upon detecting valid frequency on the
main source, the tracking will be switched back to the main source. If a stable frequency
signal is not available from all sources, then the tracking frequency defaults to the nominal
system frequency.
Phasors, Transients, and Harmonics
All waveforms are processed eight times every cycle through a DC decaying removal filter
and a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). The resulting phasors have fault current transients
and all harmonics removed. This results in an overcurrent relay that is extremely secure
and reliable and one that will not overreach.
Processing of AC Current Inputs
The DC Decaying Removal Filter is a short window digital filter, which removes the DC
decaying component from the asymmetrical current present at the moment a fault
occurs. This is done for all current signals used for overcurrent protection; voltage signals
use the same DC Decaying Removal Filter. This filter ensures no overreach of the
overcurrent protection.
The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) uses exactly one cycle of samples to calculate a
phasor quantity which represents the signal at the fundamental frequency; all harmonic
components are removed. All subsequent calculations (e.g. power, etc.) are based upon the
software for display and diagnostics.

components. RMS (root mean square) values are calculated from one cycle of samples
prior to filtering.
Protection Elements
All voltage, current and frequency protection elements are processed eight times every
cycle to determine if a pickup has occurred or a timer has expired. The voltage and current
protection elements use RMS current/voltage, or the magnitude of the phasor.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTIONSECURITY OVERVIEW
Security Overview
The following security features are available:
BASIC SECURITY
The basic security feature is present in the default offering of the 869 relay. The
869 introduces the notion of roles for different levels of authority. Roles are used as login
names with associated passwords stored on the device. The following roles are available
at present: Administrator, Operator, Factory and Observer, with a fixed permission
structure for each one. Note that the Factory role is not available for users, but strictly
used in the manufacturing process.
The 869 can still use the Setpoint access switch feature, but enabling the feature can be
done only by an Administrator. Setpoint access is controlled by a keyed switch to offer
some minimal notion of security.
CYBERSENTRY
The CyberSentry Embedded Security feature is a software option that provides advanced
security services. When the software option is purchased, the Basic Security is
automatically disabled.
CyberSentry provides security through the following features:
•An Authentication, Authorization, Accounting (AAA) Remote Authentication Dial-In
User Service (RADIUS) client that is centrally managed, enables user attribution, and
uses secure standards based strong cryptography for authentication and credential
protection.
•A Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system that provides a permission model that
device operations and configurations based on specific roles
devices using the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, the
FASTPATH:
allows access to 869
and individual user accounts configured on the AAA server. At present the defined
roles are: Administrator, Operator and Observer.
•Strong encryption of all access and configuration network messages between the
EnerVista software and 869
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and 128-bit keys in Galois Counter Mode (GCM)
as specified in the U.S. National Security Agency Suite B extension for SSH and
approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) FIPS-140-2
standards for cryptographic systems.
•Security event reporting through the Syslog protocol for supporting Security
Information Event Management (SIEM) systems for centralized cyber security
monitoring.
There are two types of authentication supported by CyberSentry that can be used to
access the 869 device:
•Device Authentication – in which case the authentication is performed on the
device itself, using the predefined roles as users (No RADIUS involvement).
869
–869 authentication using local roles may be done either from the front panel or
through EnerVista.
•Server Authentication - in which case the authentication is done on a RADIUS server,
using individual user accounts defined on the server. When the user accounts are
created, they are assigned to one of the predefined roles recognized by the 869
–869 authentication using RADIUS server may be done only through EnerVista.
WiFi and USB do not currently support CyberSentry security. For this reason WiFi is
disabled by default if the CyberSentry option is purchased. The user can enable WiFi, but
be aware that doing so violates the security and compliance model that CyberSentry is
supposed to provide.
869 MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL1–7
Page 18
869 ORDER CODESCHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
NOTE
When both 869 device and server authentication are enabled, the 869 automatically
directs authentication requests to the 869
device or the respective RADIUS server, based
on user names. If the user ID credential does not match one of the device local accounts,
the 869
automatically forwards the request to a RADIUS server when one is provided. If a
RADIUS server is provided, but is unreachable over the network, server authentication
requests are denied. In this situation, use local 869
system.
869
device accounts to gain access to the
USER ROLES
User Access Levels are used to grant varying permissions to specific user roles. User roles
are used by both Basic Security and CyberSentry.
The following user roles are supported:
•Administrator: The Administrator role has complete read and write access to all
settings and commands. The role does not allow concurrent access. The Administrator
role also has an operand to indicate when it is logged on.
•Operator: The Operator role is present to facilitate operational actions that may be
programmed and assigned to buttons on the front panel. The Operator has read/write
access to all settings under the command menu/section. The Operator can view
settings from EnerVista or the front panel but does not have the ability to change any
settings. This role is not a concurrent role.
•Observer: The Observer role has read-only access to all 869 settings. This role allows
concurrent access. The Observer is the default role if no authentication has been done
to the device. This role can download settings files and records from the device.
•Factory: This is an internal non-user accessible role used for manufacturing
diagnostics. The ability to enable or disable this role is a security setting that the
Administrator controls.
GENERAL RULES FOR USER ROLES WITH CYBERSENTRY
1.The only concurrent role is Observer. If the user is logged in through serial, front panel,
or over the network, that counts as the role being logged in for concurrency reasons.
2.Both EnerVista and the front panel provide a one-step logoff. For the front panel, the
root menu has a logoff command. From EnerVista right-clicking on a device and
providing a logoff function from the context menu is sufficient.
3.The EnerVista Login Screen has “User Name:” and “Password:” fields for the default
remote (Radius) authentication, but when a “Local Authentication” checkbox is
selected the “User Name:” field changes to a drop down menu where the user can
select one of the predefined roles on the 869.

MUST-READ INFORMATIONCHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
Must-read Information
The following general statements apply and are repeated in the relevant sections of the
manual.
FASTPATH:
•WiFi and USB do not currently support CyberSentry security. For this reason WiFi is
disabled by default if the CyberSentry option is purchased. The user can enable WiFi,
but be aware that doing so violates the security and compliance model that
CyberSentry is supposed to provide.
•Before upgrading firmware, it is very important to save the current 869 settings to a
file on your PC. After the firmware has been upgraded, it is necessary to load this file
back into the 869.
•The SNTP, IRIG-B and PTP settings take effect after rebooting the relay.
•Commands may be issued freely through other protocols than Modbus (i.e., DNP, IEC
104, and, IEC 61850) without user authentication or encryption of data taking place,
even if the relay has the advanced security feature enabled.
•Note that the factory role password may not be changed.
•In 869 both DNP and IEC104 protocol can work at the same time, but the user has to
consider that there is only one point map. So, both protocols use the same configured
points.
•The 52b contact is closed when the breaker is open and open when the breaker is
closed.
•The Phase Directional element responds to the forward load current. In the case of a
following reverse fault, the element needs some time – in the order of 8 ms – to
change the directional signal. Some protection elements such as Instantaneous
Overcurrent may respond to reverse faults before the directional signal has changed.
A coordination time of at least 10 ms must therefore be added to all the instantaneous
protection elements under the supervision of the Phase Directional element. If current
reversal is a concern, a longer delay – in the order of 20 ms – is needed.
•The same curves used for the time overcurrent elements are used for Neutral
Displacement. When using the curve to determine the operating time of the Neutral
Displacement element, substitute the ratio of neutral voltage to Pickup level for the
current ratio shown on the horizontal axis of the curve plot.
•If the 3-phase VT uses a delta connection and FREQUENCY INPUT is set to J2-3VT, the
positive sequence voltage is used as the supervision voltage. In such condition, the
true supervision level is internally changed to 1/sqrt(3) of the user setting since the
base of VT here is the phase-phase voltage.
•To monitor the trip coil circuit integrity, use the relay terminals “FA_1 NO” and “FA_1
COM” to connect the Trip coil, and provide a jumper between terminals “FA_1 COM”
and “FA_1 OPT/V” voltage monitor).
•The relay is not approved as, or intended to be, a revenue metering instrument. If used
in a peak load control system, the user must consider the accuracy rating and
method of measurement employed, and the source VTs and CTs, in comparison with
the electrical utility revenue metering system.
•In bulk oil circuit breakers, the interrupting time for currents is less than 25% of the
interrupting rating and can be significantly longer than the normal interrupting time.
•For future reference, the user is advised to take a printout of the conversion report
immediately after the conversion. All conversion reports are removed and become
inaccessible if the user closes or re-launches the 8 Series Setup software.

Arc Flash Sensor
The Arc Flash sensor houses the fiber optics and membrane that are used to detect the arc
flash. Two mounting screw holes are provided to affix the sensors to the panel.
CAUTION:
Sensor Fiber Handling
& Storage
CAUTION:
If the 8 Series is used in the computation for reducing the Hazard Reduction Category
code, operands for sensor failures must be assigned to an auxiliary output relay which
must be connected into the control logic of the breaker equipment to ensure safe
operations when the output relay is asserted. In the event of this assertion, the Hazard
Reduction Category code cannot be maintained unless backup protection is continuing
to maintain it.
Arc Flash sensor fiber is pressure sensitive and must be handled carefully to avoid
damage. Read the following guidelines fully before proceeding.
Care must be taken when handling the Arc Flash sensor fiber, which can be damaged if
twisted, bent, or clamped tightly during installation.
•Do not bend sensor fiber sharply, or with a radius of less than 25 mm (1 inch). Sharp
bends can damage the fiber. Do not pull or tug loops of sensor fiber, as sharp bends
may result.
•Do not clamp sensor fiber tightly during installation. Sensor fiber should be held in
place loosely for the best long-term performance. Avoid over-tightening ties which
may deform or break the sensor fiber.
•Do not pull or tug sensor fiber with force, as this may cause internal damage or
separate the fiber from the cable connector.
•Do not twist the sensor fiber, as twisting can damage the fiber resulting in
substandard performance.
•Do not attach sensor fiber directly to the bus.
•Avoid surface temperatures above 70 °C or 158 °F to prolong the life of the fiber.
•Secure all sensor fibers (loosely but securely) away from any moving parts.
•Use the factory-provided dust caps on all Arc Flash sensor fiber and connectors when
not in use, to avoid dust contamination in the transceiver and sensor plugs.

CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATIONELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Sensor fiber should be held in place loosely for the best long-term performance. Avoid
over-tightening ties which may deform or break the sensor fiber.
Before installing the AF sensor unit, ensure that all other drilling and installation is
complete to minimize possible damage to the sensitive unit .
To install the AF sensor and route the sensor fiber, follow these steps:
1.Choose a location for the sensor clear of any obstructions that could shield the sensor
from arc flash light.
2.Mount the sensor securely, using the mounting screw holes.
3.Once the sensor is securely mounted, carefully route the sensor fiber from the AFS
sensor to the base unit, minimizing loops and curves for the strongest possible signal.
4.Secure all sensor fibers (loosely but securely) away from any moving parts.
FASTPATH:
Both the AF sensor connections (CH 1 through CH 4) and the sensor cables are shipped
with dust caps in place to avoid dust contamination. The small rubber dust caps must
be removed before operation.

Phase Sequence and Transformer Polarity
For correct operation of the relay features, follow the instrument transformer polarities,
shown in the Typical Wiring Diagram above. Note the solid square markings that are
shown with all instrument transformer connections. When the connections adhere to the
drawing, the arrow shows the direction of power flow for positive watts and the positive
direction of lagging vars. The phase sequence is user programmable for either ABC or ACB
rotation.
The 869 relay has four (4) current inputs in each J slot and K slot. Three of them are used
for connecting to the phase CT phases A, B, and C. The fourth input is a ground input that
can be connected to either a ground CT placed on the neutral from a Wye connected
transformer winding, or to a “donut” type CT measuring feeder ground fault current.
relay CT inputs are grouped into terminal block assembly, mounted on the rear of the
869
chassis. There are no internal ground connections on the current inputs. Current
A primaries may be used.
CAUTION:
transformers with 1 to 12000
Verify that the relay’s nominal input current of 1 A or 5 A matches the secondary rating
of the connected CTs. Unmatched CTs may result in equipment damage or inadequate
protection.
CAUTION:
IMPORTANT: The phase and ground current inputs correctly measure up to 46 times the
current input’s nominal rating. Time overcurrent curves become horizontal lines for
currents above 20 × PKP.

Ground and Sensitive Ground CT Inputs
There are two dedicated ground inputs referred to throughout this manual as the Ground
Current (1A/5A secondary) and the Sensitive Ground (50:0.025) inputs.
Before planning to make any ground connections, be aware that the relay automatically
calculates the neutral (residual) current from the sum of the three phase current phasors,
which is used by the Neutral IOC and TOC which are both suitable for the ground fault
detection.
The following figures show two possible ground connections using the ground current
input (Terminals J7 and J8) and sensitive ground connections using the sensitive ground
current input (Terminals K7 and K8).
The ground input (Terminals J7 and J8) is used in conjunction with a zero sequence CT (core
balance) as a source, or in the neutral of wye-connected source CTs. When using the
residual connection, set the Ground CT Primary setpoint to a value equal to the Phase CT
Primary setpoint. Note that only 1A and 5A secondary CTs may be used for the residual
connection.
Figure 2-22: Ground Current Input Connections
Alternatively, the 50:0.025 ground CT input has been designed for sensitive ground current
detection on high resistance grounded systems where the GE Digital Energy 50:0.025 corebalance CT is to be used.
For example, in mining applications where earth leakage current must be measured for
personnel safety, primary ground current as low as 0.5 A primary may be detected with
the GE Digital Energy 50:0.025 CT. Only one ground CT input tap must be used on a given
unit. Note that when this CT input is selected for the Ground Fault function, fixed ratio of
50:0.025 A is used by the relay.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONCHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION
Control Power
Control power is supplied to the relay such that it matches the relay’s installed power
supply range.
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
Control power supplied to the relay must match the installed power supply range. If the
applied voltage does not match, damage to the unit may occur. All grounds MUST be
connected for normal operation regardless of control power supply type.
For more details, please refer to the Power Supply subsection located in the Introduction
chapter.
The relay should be connected directly to the ground bus, using the shortest practical
path. A tinned copper, braided, shielding and bonding cable should be used. As a
minimum, 96 strands of number 34 AWG should be used. Belden catalog number 8660
is suitable.

Contact Inputs
Depending on the order code, the 869 relay has a different number of contact inputs which
can be used to operate a variety of logic functions for circuit switching device control,
external trips, blocking of protection elements, etc. The relay has ‘contact inputs’ and
‘virtual inputs’ that are combined in a form of programmable logic to facilitate the
implementation of various schemes.
The voltage threshold at which the contact inputs detect a closed contact input is
programmable as 17 V DC for 24 V sources, 33 V DC for 48 V sources, 84 V DC for 110 to
125 V sources, and 166 V DC for 250 V sources.
Wet or Dry input signal types can be connected to contact input terminals as shown in the
figure: Wet and Dry Contact Input Wiring Examples.
Dry inputs use an internal +24V that is supplied by the 869. The voltage threshold must be
set to 17V for the inputs to be recognized using the internal +24V.
FASTPATH:
The same type of input signal must be connected to all contact inputs on the same contact
input card.
Figure 2-29: Wet and Dry Contact Input Wiring Examples
Output Relays
The locations of the output relays have a fixed assignment for the platform called the
master identifier. I/O options that include inputs occupy the fixed assigned output
locations so in these cases the relay assignment maps to the master identifier.
The critical failure output relay is reserved as Relay_8 and it is omitted and is not
programmable.
869 MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL2–25
One two-wire RS485 port is provided. Up to thirty-two 8 Series IEDs can be daisy-chained
together on a communication channel without exceeding the driver capability. For larger
systems, additional serial channels must be added. Commercially available repeaters can
also be used to add more than 32 relays on a single channel. Suitable cable should have a
characteristic impedance of 120 ohms and total wire length should not exceed 1200
meters (4000 ft).
Voltage differences between remote ends of the communication link are not uncommon.
For this reason, surge protection devices are internally installed across all RS485
terminals.Internally, an isolated power supply with an opto-coupled data interface is used
to prevent noise coupling.

CAUTION:
To ensure that all devices in a daisy-chain are at the same potential, it is imperative
that the common terminals of each RS485 port are tied together and grounded only
once, at the master or at the 869. Failure to do so may result in intermittent or failed
communications.
The source computer/PLC/SCADA system should have similar transient protection devices
installed, either internally or externally. Ground the shield at one point only, as shown in
the figure above, to avoid ground loops. Correct polarity is also essential. The 869
IEDs
must be wired with all the positive (+) terminals connected together and all the negative (–)
terminals connected together. Each relay must be daisy-chained to the next one. Avoid
star or stub connected configurations. The last device at each end of the daisy-chain
should be terminated with a 120 ohm ¼ watt resistor in series with a 1 nF capacitor across
the positive and negative terminals. Some systems allow the shield (drain wire) to be used
as a common wire and to connect directly to the COM terminal; others function correctly
only if the common wire is connected to the COM terminal, but insulated from the shield.
Observing these guidelines ensure a reliable communication system immune to system
transients.

Chapter 3: Interfaces
Interfaces
There are two methods of interfacing with the 869.
•Interfacing via the relay keypad and display.
•Interfacing via the EnerVista 8 Series Setup software.
This section provides an overview of the interfacing methods available with the 869 using
the relay control panel and EnerVista 8 Series Setup
interface parameters (for example, settings, actual values, etc.), refer to the individual
chapters.
FIRST ACCESSING THE RELAY
When first accessing the relay, log in as Administrator either through the front panel or
through EnerVista connected serially (so that no IP address is required). Use the default
password (the default password is “0”).
Basic Security
If the relay is in the commissioning phase and you want to bypass authentication, switch
the “Setpoint access” setting on or assign it to a contact input. Once the setting is on, you
have complete administrator access from the front panel. If a contact input is chosen, the
access is also conditional on the activation of the respective contact input.
For more information on setpoint access and other security features available with basic
security, refer to the Basic Security section in the Setpoints chapter.
CyberSentry
If logging in through EnerVista, choose Device authentication and login as Administrator.
Note: If the relay is in the commissioning phase and the user wants to bypass
authentication, the user may use the setpoint access feature to gain administrative access
to the front panel in the same way as with basic security (see the “Basic Security” section).
For more information on security features available with CyberSentry, refer to the
CyberSentry security section in the Setpoints chapter.

Front panel LED details:
•Number of LEDs: 17
•Programmability: Any FlexLogic operand
•Reset mode: self-reset or latched
The 869 front panel provides two columns of 7 LED indicators each, and 3 LED pushbutton
indicators. The “IN-SERVICE” (LED 1) and the “PICKUP” (LED 4) indicators from the first LED
column are non-programmable LEDs. The bottom 3 LED indicators from the first column,
and the 7 LED indicators from the second LED column are fully programmable. The
indicators “TRIP” (LED 2), and “ALARM” (LED 3), are also programmable, and can be
triggered by either a selection of FlexLogic operand assigned in their own menu, or by the
operation of any protection, control or monitoring element with function selected as Trip,
Alarm, or Latched Alarm.
The RESET key is used to reset any latched LED indicator or Target Message once the
condition has been cleared (latched conditions can also be reset via the RESETTING menu).
Figure 3-9: LED numbering
Figure 3-10: Typical LED Indicator Panel
Some status indicators are common while some are feature specific which depend on the
availability in the order code. The common status indicators in the first column are
described below.
•IN SERVICE
–Green color = Relay powered up, passed self-test has been programmed, and

ready to serve. This LED indicates that control power is applied, all monitored
inputs, outputs, and internal systems are OK, and that the device has been
programmed.
–Red color = Relay failed self test, has not been programmed, or out of service
Page 87
CHAPTER 3: INTERFACESFRONT CONTROL PANEL INTERFACE
This LED indicates that the element selected to produce a trip has operated. This
indicator always latches; as such, a Reset command must be initiated to allow the
latch to be reset.
•ALARM
This LED indicates that the FlexLogic™ operand serving as an Alarm switch has
operated. Latching of the indicator depends on the selected protection function. A
Reset command must be initiated to allow the latch to be reset.
•PICKUP
This LED indicates that at least one element is picked up. This indicator is never
latched.
•TEST MODE
This LED indicates that the relay has been set into Test Mode.
•MESSAGE
This LED indicates the presence of Target Messages detected by the relay.
•LOCAL MODE
This LED indicates that the relay is operating in local mode.
Breaker status indication is based on the breaker’s 52a and 52b contacts. With both
contacts wired to the relay and configured, closed breaker status is determined by closed
52a contact and opened 52b contact. Vice-versa the open breaker status is determined by
opened 52a contact and closed 52b contact. If both 52a and 52b contacts are open, due to
a breaker being racked out from the switchgear, both the Breaker Open and Breaker
Closed LED Indicators will be off.
The Event Cause indicators in the first column are described as follows:
Events Cause LEDs are turned ON or OFF by protection elements that have their respective
target settings selected as either “Self-Reset” or “Latched”. If a protection element target
setting is “Self-Reset”, then the corresponding Event Cause LEDs remain ON as long as the
operate operand associated with the element remains asserted. If a protection element
target setting is “Latched”, then the corresponding Event Cause LEDs turn ON when the
operate operand associated with the element is asserted and will remain ON until the
RESET button on the front panel is pressed after the operand is reset.
Default labels are shipped in the package of every 869, together with custom templates. A
custom LED template is available for editing and printing, refer to publication GET-20035
http://www.gegridsolutions.com/multilin. The default labels can be replaced by user-
from
printed labels. User customization of LED operation is of maximum benefit in installations
where languages other than English are used to communicate with operators.

Relay Messages
Target MessagesTargets are messages displayed on the screen when any change of state of protection,
control, monitoring, or digital signal takes place. For the user’s convenience, the targets for
major motor protection elements are set to Latched by default. The user can disable
targets for any particular element by selecting and entering the setting “Disabled” within
the element’s menu.
Target Messages are displayed in order of their activation, whereas in cases of
simultaneous activation, they are displayed in the order outlined below (from highest to
lowest priority):
1.Targets generated by pressing programmable pushbutton
2.Targets generated by Contact inputs
3.Targets generated by Protection, Control and Monitoring elements
4.Targets generated by communications.
In cases where the Pickup and Operate flags from an element are detected at the same
time, the Pickup flag is not displayed. The Operate flag is displayed instead.
LED #6, from the first column of LEDs, is factory configured to be triggered by the
FlexLogic operand ANY TARGET, to indicate the presence of at least one target message.
This LED is labeled as “MESSAGE”. The LED can be programmed to any other FlexLogic
operand by choice.
MESSAGE TIMEOUT:
The timeout applies to each screen that is different than the default screen to which the
user navigates. Examples include viewing, metering, or navigating to a screen with setting,
etc. If no further navigation is performed, no pushbutton is touched, and/or no target is
initiated for the time specified in the message timeout setpoint, the display goes back to
the default screen (the metering summary screen).
The target message interrupts the message timeout. It overrides it. The message timeout
starts timing after each target message, and if no more activity is recorded for the
specified time, the display goes back to the default screen.
Pressing a programmable pushbutton activates a new screen with a Target Message
corresponding to the programmed PB action. The PB Target Message is displayed for 10
seconds then defaults to the screen that was displayed before pressing the pushbutton.
The PB Target Message is recorded in the list with other generated Target Messages.
Target Messages can be cleared either by pressing the PB corresponding to the tab
“CLEAR”, or by initiating a RESET command. The “CLEAR” command clears only the Target
Messages, while initiating a RESET clears not only the Target Messages, but also any
latched LEDs and output relays.

FRONT CONTROL PANEL INTERFACECHAPTER 3: INTERFACES
Self-Test ErrorsThe relay performs self-diagnostics at initialization (after power up), and continuously as a
background task to ensure that the hardware and software are functioning correctly.
There are two types of self-test warnings indicating either a minor or major problem. Minor
errors indicate a problem with the relay that does not compromise protection and control
functionality of the relay. Major errors indicate a problem with the relay which takes it out
of service.
CAUTION:
NOTE:
Self-Test Warnings may indicate a serious problem with the relay hardware!
Upon detection of a minor problem, the relay does the following:
•Displays a detailed description of the error on the relay display as a target message
•Records the minor self-test error in the Event Recorder
•Flashes the “ALARM” LED
Upon detection of a major problem, the relay does the following:
•De-energizes critical failure relay
•De-energizes all output relays
•Blocks protection and control elements
•Turns the "IN SERVICE" LED to red
•Flashes the "ALARM" LED
•Displays “Major Self-test error” with the error code as a target message
•Records the major self-test failure in the Event Recorder
The Critical Failure Relay (Output Relay 8) is energized when the relay is in-service, and no
major error is present
Under both conditions, the targets cannot be cleared if the error is still active.
