Safety
Precautions
If you attempt to resolve problems with your GE product using methods not
recommended by GE Grid Solutions, this might result in damage or injury to
persons and property.
Follow all safety precautions and instructions in this manual:
• Only qualified personnel should work on the D25. Maintenance personnel
should be familiar with hazards associated with electrical equipment.
• All AC voltage and current terminals are protected from accidental contact by
mechanical safety shields. The D25 is designed so that field wiring does not
have to be touched or disconnected when removing printed circuit boards
(PCBs).
•Always use the puller that is provided to remove Modules that hold potentially
hazardous voltages. This is located inside the D25 front cover on the edge of the
Indicator Switch Card.
• The CONTROLS switch on the front panel of the D25 has a mechanical
protector to prevent accidental operation of the switch. The switch can be locked
in the Local or Remote position.
• All components within the D25 are susceptible to damage from electrostatic
discharge. Observe standard ESD precautions.

What Can a
GDP/CGDP be
Used For?
The GDP/CGDP can eliminate the need for discrete substation devices.
For example, the GDP/CGDP can be used in place of the following devices:
• circuit breaker control switch and semaphore
• disconnector / earth switch and semaphore
• ammeter, and ammeter selector switch
• voltmeter, and voltmeter selector switch
• MW meter
• power factor meter
• alarm annunciator panel
• mimic diagram.
There are jumper settings at the back of the GDP/CGDP unit that are set at
the factory. These settings shall not be changed and any modification to them
may cause damage to the GDP/CGDP or other modules of the D25.
IMPORTANT
A D25 equipped with a GDP/CGDP has these limitations:
• Only external status wetting can be used when the GDP/CGDP is installed.
− the D25’s power supply field O/P is used exclusively to power the
GDP/CGDP.
− connecting another external load to the field O/P will affect isolation, and
possibly overload the power supply.
• The GDP/CGDP reduces the normal -20° to +70°C operational temperature
rating of the D25 to 0° to +50°C.
• The 20-60 V
D25 power supply is not available with the GDP/CGDP.

Fuse
Monitoring
D25 digital input modules include circuitry that detects the presence of
wetting voltage after it has passed through the fuse F1.
Software in the D25 Plant I/O Subsystem (P097 V2.30 or greater) responds to
the signals from each of the three D25 digital input modules and creates
pseudo digital inputs that can be seen in the D25 System Point Database.
If fuse F1 opens or the wetting voltage is removed from the digital input
module for any reason, the pseudo DI for that module will change state and
set an alarm. If a D25 digital input module is not present, the pseudo DI point
will remain in the Off state.
Note: Fuse monitoring can only detect a wetting voltage if the D25 digital
input module is configured for supplied or external wetting.
If the module is configured for voltage detect the fuse monitoring
circuitry will not sense any wetting voltage, and remains in the Off
state

Field wiring for all variations of Digital Input modules are made through two
FACE-40 connectors for each module on the backplane of the D25 enclosure.
These connectors are provided only if a digital input module is installed in the
D25.
Wetting supply source must be provided externally and independently for
each digital input card.
To use external or supplied wetting:
• Connect external wetting supply to pins 1 and 2 on FACE-40 Connector A, C
and/or E.
To use the voltage detect input:
• Connect (jumper) pins 1 and 2 on Connector A, C and/or E for each module(s). Note: Internal wetting voltage to Digital Cards is no longer available. Please
refer to Product Bulletin PRBT-213.
While all of the 32 inputs are bipolar and not polarity sensitive, the “B” sides
of all inputs are linked together.
• Use care when connecting multiple external power sources.
For external wetting, the three digital input modules can have independent
wetting configurations and wetting voltage sources.
Supplied Wetting is when the voltage applied to the inputs originates from the
power supply internal to the D25, routed externally to the DI Cards. The
digital input is “turned on” simply by closing a contact across the two input
termination points.
Connections for digital input point number 1.
GE Grid Solutions
Notes
This option is available for 24 and 48V low-voltage DI cards, only. Supplied
Wetting option is not available if the Graphics Display panel is installed
because it reduces the isolation, increasing the D25 unit’s susceptibility to
EMI and transient interference.

With External Wetting, operation of the digital inputs is essentially the same
as for Supplied Wetting, except that the voltage that is switched at the input
terminals is supplied by an external (non-D25) source. The external power
source is connected to pins 1 and 2 of Connector(s) A, C or E, for each of the
three Digital Input cards respectively.
Connections for digital input point number 1:
In this type of input, the D25 does not provide the wetting power source, from
either its own power supply, or from an external battery.
Note: Pins 1 and 2 of Connector(s) A, C or E are jumpered for each board
using this configuration.
If using more than one external power source, they must share a common
return, and it must be connected to the “B” input termination for each input
point.

Caution
Control Outputs
Control Module
T/C or DO
(R/L) Sensing
Fuse
Monitoring
The control module can be configured for two basic modes of operation:
• Trip/Close (T/C) – excluding D25 High Current KE Control Card
• Digital Output (DO)
Any other type of operation, such as Raise/Lower, uses the Digital Output
hardware configuration.
D25 software detects what type of digital output command has been received,
and uses the Master Trip and Master Close relays when appropriate.
External jumpering is provided to route the external Control Voltage through
the correct relays for each mode of operation.
The control module includes circuitry that detects the presence of control
voltage on the load side of the fuses. Software in the D25 Plant I/O
Subsystem (P097 V2.30 or greater) responds to the signal from the control
module and creates a pseudo digital input that can be seen in the D25 System
Point Database.
If a fuse opens, or the control voltage is removed from the digital output
module for any reason, the pseudo digital input (DI) for that module will
change state and set an alarm.
Note
If the control module is not present, the pseudo DI point will remain in the Off
state.
Note 1: The fuse monitoring circuitry can only detect a control voltage above
approximately 10 Vdc. If the control voltage is less than this level,
the fuse monitoring circuitry will not sense any voltage, and the
pseudo DI point will remain in the Off state.
Note 2: Fuse monitoring works with positive or negative grounded systems.
Note 3: For D25s with Plant I/O Version 2.30, the fuse-monitoring feature
will only work with DC control voltages. Versions greater than 2.30
support AC control voltage monitoring.
Note 4: The D25 High Current Control Card does not have a fuse and a fuse
monitoring circuit.
The fuse monitoring circuitry has been engineered to detect control voltages
up to the supported maximum specifications of the module. Do not exceed
this level of control voltage. Damage to the module may result.
The D25 KE control module does not require hardware configuration to use
the fuse-monitoring feature.

Connections to
Interposing
Relay Panels
The D25KE DB-25 connector option is for use primarily with WESTERM
D20 KI interposing relay panels (part numbers 517-0146 and 517-0147LF).
For this connection use a multi-conductor shielded DB-25 cable assembly.
Ensure that the multi-conductor cable’s shield drain wire is connected to pin
17 of the WESTERM D20 KI DB-25 connector.
Pin 17 of the D25KE DB-25 connector is not connected internally, and
therefore, cannot be used as a drain connection.
For Trip/Close operation, the cables used to connect the D25 control outputs
to the D20 KI panels must have all DB-25 pins connected end-to-end.
• Use GE Grid Solutions part number 977-0208, or equivalent.
The D25KE module requires four WESTERM KI interposing relay panels to
support 32 pairs of Trip/Close digital outputs.
Note: For all KI relay panels, one of the Z1 jumpers must be installed to
provide a return path for the control voltage. KI panels have these
jumpers installed.
First group of eight digital outputs:
• Connect a DB-25 cable from J1 of the D25KE to J2 of the first WESTERM KI
interposing relay panel.
Second group of eight digital outputs:
• Connect a DB-25 cable from J2 of the D25KE to J2 of the second WESTERM
KI interposing relay panel.
Third group of eight digital outputs:
• Connect a DB-25 cable from J4 of the D25KE to J2 of the third WESTERM KI
interposing relay panel.
Fourth group of eight digital outputs:
• Connect a DB-25 cable from J5 of the D25KE to J2 of the fourth WESTERM KI

for: 3 Groups
of Trip/Close,
and One Group
of Raise/Lower
Trip/Close and Raise/Lower digital outputs can be used on the same D25KE
FACE-40 unit.
When assigning raise/lower groups, always start with group 4, then group 3,
and lastly group 2.
Remember that raise/lower points number in the reverse direction from other
point types: point 32 will become lower point 1.
Configuring raise/lower groups with numbers lower than the trip/close group
numbers, or between trip/close groups can result in a very complex and
confusing wiring scheme.
Jumpering is required to configure a D25KE FACE-40 module for 3 groups
of trip/close, and one group of raise/lower:
Use jumper wires on the FACE-40 terminal block G1 to configure groups 1
and 2.
• Group 1:
− connect between MTA (G1-39) and JMP1 (G1-37)
• Group 2:
− connect between MTA (G1-40) and JMP2 (G1-38)
Use jumper wires on the FACE-40 terminal block G2 to configure groups 3
and 4.
• Group 3 for trip/close:
− connect between MTB (G2-5) and JMP3 (G2-3)
• Group 4 for raise/lower:
− connect between VCB (G2-2) and JMP4 (G2-4)

Important!
The high voltage area of the D25 High Current KE Digital Output Module is in close
proximity to the D25 chassis. Ensure that relay contacts are de-energized before
removing the D25 HCKE DO Module.
WESDAC Type III DAC board revision 06A or higher.
• When seal-in is in effect only a software request or an external current
interruption in the respective circuit (e.g. auxiliary breaker contacts) can
open the affected relay
• Outputs with connected current supervision must be configured in SGConfig
as well.
• The control outputs are not fused; in order to protect the D25 HCKE Module
from overcurrent, you should add an external protection device. GE
recommends the use of a maximum 5A, 20-second time delay fuse.
• The current supervision is connected to the appropriate control output
channel. The software does not support the use of only the current
monitoring input for other purposes.

The D25 accepts up to 15 AC analog inputs, which are grouped into five sets
of three each.
The D25 can support virtually any combination of CTs and PTs.
The only restrictions are:
• TB1 inputs must be PTs
• Each group of 3 transformers must be of the same type
If no AC inputs are specified, AC Input configuration is disabled.
Disabled parameters appear in dark green in the SGConfig I/O Configuration
window
When configuring a D25 device with all AC inputs configured as PT inputs,
add a CT input to the AC Circuit and set up as “voltage circuit only”. See the
D25 AC Configuration properties > Circuits tab > Circuit 1 Properties >
Voltage Only Circuit check-box in SGConfig.
A flexible AC input mapping feature, called E-Z Map, is included.
• It allows you to configure, for each input of an AC circuit, the physical AC input
that supplies the required signal.
• It gives you complete flexibility in wiring the AC inputs and assigning them to
the appropriate circuit inputs.

Two general-purpose, on-board communication ports are available on the
back panel of the D25, and use female DB-9-F style connectors. The IED
ports provide:
• Variable communication parameters
• Optional software flow control
• Optional hardware flow control
• Out-of-sequence transmission of one byte of data
• Support for several I/O timers
Transmission of break characters
Both IED ports RS-232 and RS-485 (for multi-drop applications) are
supported on the same physical connector.
Note: The input resistance 12 KΩ is used for all serial ports in D25
(UTC/IED/XCOM) when configured as RS485. The typical resistance
is 24 KΩ, but use 12 KΩ as maximum burden. This is very important
for daisy chaining D25s, especially for IRIG-B signals.
IED Serial
Ports Options
The COM3 and COM4 serial ports are programmed via SGConfig for:
− RS-232 or RS-485 selection
− RS-485 2-Wire / 4-Wire selection
Note: The 2 to 4- Wire selection in SGConfig Device Propertiesonly
affects the internal software control (handshaking) of the interface.
It does not change the physical characteristics of the communication
ports.

Control Signal
Digital Outputs
System Fail
Output
In RS-485 two-wire mode, the RTS line internal to the D25 controls the transmitter
(the RTS signal is not propagated on to the serial cable, but is present inside the
hardware).
While RTS is active, the transceiver is in transmit mode. The “preamble” and
“postamble” timers determine the delay prior to transmission, and the amount of time
following transmission that the transmitter remains in control of the RS-485 line.
When the RTS line drops, the RS-485 port is placed back in receive mode until the
next time the D25 requests a transmission.
There is a third timer used to configure the amount of time the receiver must be idle
before the transmitter can be engaged. Although this timer is configurable, most
software applications do not have this timer in their configurations, and thus it is left
at its default value.
There are three digital outputs available through the Auxiliary Controls connector:
• System fail output
• Radio keying output
• Auxiliary control output
The contacts of the relays provide electrical and mechanical isolation for all three
signals.
This output will be activated during the Power On Self Test (POST) that runs
whenever the D25 is reset via software or through cycling of power.

If an Ethernet or a Serial XCOM external communication module is installed
in the D25, the XCOM interfaces are designated COM5 and COM6,
respectively.
The Serial XCOM (part numbers 580-0991 and special order 580-0933) cards
have two DB-9-F interfaces, labeled XCOM1 and XCOM2.
They both have these characteristics:
• External power connection
• Programmed via SGConfig for:
− RS-232 or RS-485
− RS-485 2-Wire or 4-Wire
Note: The 2 to 4-Wire wire selection in SGConfig Device Properties only
affects the internal software control (handshaking) of the interface.
It does not change the physical characteristics of the ports.

the D25 internal power supply. This violates the isolation specifications of
the card, and can lead to two problems, if not accounted for:
• an external surge of voltage, such as a lightning strike, can be passed from a
modem into the D25 internal circuitry where damage may occur
• inadvertent connection of power to the card’s external 3-pin terminal block may
cause damage to the D25 power system
The XCOM ports provide the same functionality as the IED Ports, with this
difference:
• XCOM ports run at a lower priority than the IED ports. It is therefore most
efficient to put the heaviest communication on the XCOM ports.
If you place the heaviest traffic on the IED ports, the higher priority IED ports
will often delay servicing of the XCOM ports.

Constant high-volume traffic on the IED ports can cause the XCOM ports to
lose data. By placing the lower traffic connections on the IED ports, you
ensure that XCOM ports always get serviced in a timely manner. Heavier
traffic on the XCOM ports will be interrupted only momentarily (and within
the buffering ability of the XCOM card) by small bursts on the higher priority
IED ports.
Three variations of Ethernet / 802.3 XCOM cards are available:

Configuring the D25 to work with a DNP3 I/O Module
GE Grid Solutions
Introduction
Your D25 RTU Master communicates with your DNP3 I/O modules through
the DNP3 Data Collection Application (DCA B023). The DNP DCA collects
data from, and sends control requests to, the DNP3 I/O modules.
Refer to 0 Appendix D: Installing and Connecting DNP3 I/O Modules for
installation and connection instructions.
Use SGConfig to configure the DNP3 DCA in the D25 so that it
communicates with your DNP3 I/O module. There are three tables to
configure:
•Remote Device Table: This table contains one record for each DNP
I/O module in the system. The Remote Device Table specifies the
remote devices with which the DCA communicates, the polling
parameters for each remote device, and the points configured on each
remote device. Each record in the Remote Device Table references the
appropriate Remote Device Point Mapping Table(s) and Remote
Device Polling Table(s).
•Remote Device Point Mapping Table: Specifies the number and type
of data points associated with each DNP I/O module.
•Remote Device Polling Table: Specifies the polling type and frequency
for each DNP I/O module.
Instructions and guidelines for configuring your DNP3 DCA can be found in
the following documentation:
• DNP V3.00 DCA - Configuration Guide (B023-0CG)
• SGConfig online help.
Note: When configuring the Time Sync option:
• Disable Time Sync for the D20A and D20K modules
• If Time Sync is enabled on a D20S module, the polling rate may be a
minimum of 2 seconds (it takes about 850ms to do a Time Sync for each
device).

Chapter 3: Powering-up and Testing
Power-up and
test the D25
Note
Once you have completed all field wiring and communication connections
and the necessary hardware configuration, the next step is to power-up the
D25 and verify that it is functioning properly.
Use this section of the guide to prepare for powering-up and learn how to
correctly perform the power-up and other tests:
• What is needed to test: WESMAINT II+, 68K Monitor and SGConfig
• How to power-up the D25 and conduct the BOOT Test: Power On Self-Test
• Digital Input Verification Test
• Digital Output Verification Test
• DC Analog Input Test
• AC Voltage and Current Input Test
If power-up and test reveals that the D25 is not functioning properly due to
software malfunction and you need to download code and configuration files
to the FLASH memory, see D25 Software.
Before any of the tests and procedures in this section can be performed, a
valid configuration file must be loaded into the D25’s NVRAM.
If you have replaced the main board of the D25, then you need to restore the
configuration file so that verification tests can be performed.
If you need help restoring your configuration file, refer to the SGConfig On
Line Help.

Testing Utilities
WESMAINT
II+
The following utilities are used to configure and test the D25:
• WESMAINT II+
• 68K Monitor
• SGConfig Configuration system
There is some functional overlap between these components.
Each operational D25 unit includes a WESMAINT II+ facility that allows
you to go on-line with the D25 to examine the database, applications and
communications, and to manipulate the data.
For example, the state of a digital input data can be examined, or a digital
output forced on or off.

SGConfig
You can use a VT100-compatible terminal or a terminal emulation program
to directly access the WESMAINT II+ facility. Examples of suitable terminal
emulation programs are:
• The third party terminal emulation software included on the SGConfig CD
• The SGConfig configuration system’s Terminal Emulator
If your PC (or similar platform) has a TELNET terminal emulation software
package, it can be used to connect to the D25 through an Ethernet network
link.
Note: For further information about using WESMAINT II+ software to
perform any of the test procedures in this section, refer to the
WESMAINT II+ User’s Guide.
Microsoft® Windows® HyperTerminal can be used for terminal emulation
but it is NOT recommended because code and configuration file download
time is considerably increased.
The 68K Monitor is a debugging and diagnostics tool that is accessible in two
ways:
• As a menu selection in WESMAINT II+.
• Upon start-up of a D25 that has not been previously configured.
Note: For further information about using the 68K Monitor, refer to the
68K Monitor User’s Guide.
The SGConfig Configuration System is used to define the operational
parameters of the D25. SGConfig can be used to download configuration
files to the D25 through a serial connection, or through the optional Ethernet
TELNET connection available to Windows users.
Note: For further information about SGConfig, refer to the SGConfig On
Line Help.

How can
Configuration
and Code File
Mismatch
Happen?
How can
Mismatch be
Prevented?
All D25 units require two distinctly different files to be loaded into memory
before the unit will become operational:
• Code File
− This file is created using GE Grid Solutions’ Software Development
System, and is used to define the applications that can be used in a D25
system.
• Configuration File
− This file is generated using the SGConfig configuration tool, and is used to
enable and configure the operational characteristics of the applications
defined by the code file.
The Code File and the Configuration File loaded into any D25 must match perfectly:
• The applications and application versions used in the configuration files created
using SGConfig must be the same as the applications and application versions
used to make the code file.
Any differences between the applications in the code and configuration files
may result in erratic or unpredictable behavior of the D25
Here are some common ways that this can occur:
1. The wrong configuration file is accidentally downloaded into a unit. For
example, based on a D25 that has a different code file installed. This can happen
either:
− Through a local serial SGConfig download, or
− Remotely over a LAN connection using TELNET or BootP
2. A code file is downloaded that does not match the configuration file that is
presently resident in the D25’s NVRAM
3. Either the code file or the configuration file has been corrupted, either before or
during download
1. Wrong configuration file: usually a result of operator or BootP Server
configuration error, and can only be prevented by exercising care.
2. Mismatched code file: can be prevented by erasing any configuration file that
may be resident in NVRAM before downloading a new code file.
3. Corruption: may require the regeneration of one or both files, and re-
downloading.

What Happens
when the Files
do not Match?
How Does the
D25 React to
This type of
Error?
Why is This
Done?
A mismatch error between Code and Configuration files causes the D25 to
reboot.
The D25’s base system performs this procedure after each reboot:
1. Every time the D25 is rebooted, a counter is incremented.
2. If the D25 runs for 2 minutes without a reboot, this counter is cleared.
3. If the counter ever reaches 20, the base system invalidates the
configuration by writing "KILL" into the configuration file without
recalculating the file’s CRC.
4. The base system then forces a system reset.
5. When the unit comes back up, the base system detects a configuration that
is now invalid and creates a default configuration instead (or loads a
stored back-up configuration, if it is available in memory).
This process is designed to protect systems that have fatal errors that cause
the system to reset before the user can get into WESMAINT to fix the
problem
While a user can always directly default the configuration by pressing <ESC>
during the start-up sequence, this only works if the customer is physically
present and connected to the WESMAINT port.
When to Erase
a Configuration
Since the D25 has the ability to receive files remotely over a LAN, the
problem may occur when a user is downloading remotely and logging in over
TELNET. An error that causes the system to constantly reboot could
potentially continue forever, filling up NVRAM with many error messages.
This process enables the D25 to eventually settle down on its own.
Rule: If the code file is not exactlythe same as the one that was in use
before the download, then erase a configuration file from the D25’s
NVRAM before downloading a new code file into FLASH memory.

Procedures:
Ways to erase a
Configuration
One Way
Second Way
There are three ways to erase a configuration file from the D25’s NVRAM:
Step Action
1. Reboot the D25, and while it is starting, press the ESCAPE key.
Results: This message pops-up:
Are you sure you wish to generate a
2. Type Y and press ENTER
Results: The configuration will now be defaulted.
Step Action
1. With a terminal connected to the D25’s monitor, type DHW
(Display HardWare) or SI (System Information) on older units.
Results: A listing of information, including the start address and
size of the NVRAM used for the configuration file is
displayed.
The NVRAM end address can be calculated by adding
the NVRAM size to the NVRAM start address.
Third Way
D25
Locked-up?
2. Type F 00 <NVRAM Start Address> <NVRAM End Address>
and press ENTER
Results: The specified range of NVRAM will be filled with 0s,
erasing any configuration file.
Step Action
1. With the power removed from the D25, remove the battery on the
WESDAC board for at least 15 minutes.
Refer to page 113, Battery Replacement for a detailed procedure
for removing and replacing batteries.
Use the Third Way to unlock a D25 that has been locked up through a
code/configuration file mismatch.

Code Files:
When to
Download
Choice of Three
Processes
Insufficient
Memory
There are two reasons for downloading firmware code files:
• If the D25 has performed self-diagnostics and determined that the FLASH
memory is either erased or corrupt, then it will display the D25S> prompt on the
system monitor when it requires code files to be downloaded.
• If the D25 software program features need to be changed or upgraded, the
existing FLASH memory can be erased, and new code downloaded.
Three techniques for programming the FLASH memory are available. The
technique to use depends on system options and network type.
The choices are:
1. A serial connection from a PC to the WESMAINT port, using third-party
communications software.
− This procedure is described below.
2. Use SGConfig, either via a serial connection to the WESMAINT port, or
via Ethernet using a TELNET and TFTP procedure.
− These options are described in the SGConfig On Line Help.
3. A third-party USB port adapter and software utility is available to connect
directly to the BDM port on the D25 WESDAC Board, which permits
very quick downloads.
− This is the procedure used during manufacture of the D25.
When a new code image is downloaded into the FLASH memory of a D25,
the amount of memory reserved for the configuration’s data region, also
referred to as the “Base” region, may not be large enough.
If this occurs, then the D25 locks-up and a message similar to this will be
displayed:
The configuration’s data region overlaps the current
Configuration Header (NVHEADER). Relocate the
Configuration Header / NVRAM to <address>, or set data
size to <size> and re-download. Application will NOT
be started.
If this message appears:
• Unlock the D25
• Increase the base region memory. Consult the SGConfig Online Help for how to
set the D25’s Device Properties to increase the Base Region size.
