2.1 Protective Relay Applications Using ON/OFF Carriers

The TC–10B carrier set is particularly suitable for the following types of protective relay systems:

• Directional-Comparison Blocking

• Phase-Comparison Blocking

• Current Only

• Distance Supervised

2.1.1 Directional-Comparison

Blocking

The basic elements for directional-comparison blocking systems are shown in Figure 2-1a and Figure 2-1b. At each terminal, the phase and ground trip units (P) must be directional and set to overreach the remote terminal; that is, they must be set to operate for all internal faults. Nominal settings of the distance units are 120 to 150 percent of the line. The start units (S) must reach farther, or be set more sensitively, than the remote trip units. Thus S

1 must be set more sensitively

than P

2 or reach farther behind bus G. Likewise,

2 must be set more sensitively than P1 or reach

farther behind bus H. In any case, the S and P relays should be similar in type. If the trip unit (P) is a directional overcurrent ground relay, the start (S) ground relay should be a similar non-directional overcurrent unit. The same principle applies for the phase relays.

When the TC–10B ON-OFF power line carrier is used with these schemes, except for possible auxiliary functions, no signal is normally trans- mitted, since the S units operate only during fault conditions.

Operation of the directional-comparison scheme (shown in Figure 2-1a and Figure 2-1b) is internal faults. Subscript 1 indicates relays at station G for breaker 1; subscript 2, relays at

station H for breaker 2. (Figure 2-1c shows a solid-state logic version of Figure 2-1b.)

The schemes shown are still widely used for their flexibility and reliability. Since the communication channel is not required for tripping, internal faults that might short and interrupt the channel are not a problem. Over tripping will occur, however, if the channel fails or is not established for external faults within the reach of the trip fault detectors. Since the carrier transmitter is normally OFF, or non-transmitting, channel failure cannot be detected until the system is tested or until an external fault occurs. This limitation can be overcome by using the optional TC–10B checkback system with the TC–10B carrier.

2.1.2 Phase-Comparison Blocking

Basic elements of the phase-comparison systems are shown in Figure 2-2. The system uses a composite sequence current network to provide a single-phase voltage output proportional to the positive, negative, and zero sequence current input. Sensitivity to different types of faults depends on the weighting factors or constants designed into the sequence current network. Adjustments to the network are provided.

A squaring amplifier in the controlling relay converts the single-phase voltage output to a square wave. The positive voltage portion corresponds to the positive half-cycle of the filter voltage wave and the zero portion corresponds to the negative half-cycle. The square wave is used to key the TC–10B, transmitting to the remote terminal. The square wave from the remote terminal is compared to the local square wave, which has been delayed by an amount equal to the absolute channel delay time. This comparison of the local and remote square waves at each

terminal determines whether a fault is internal or external.

Fault detectors are used to determine whether a fault has occurred and to supervise tripping. The fault detectors must be overreaching, i.e., set sensitively enough to operate for all internal phase and ground faults.

Because overcurrent fault detectors are normally used, voltage transformers are not required. Such a scheme is current only. Fault detectors should be set above maximum load, yet operate for all internal faults. Distance fault detectors, which require voltage transformers, are used on heavyloaded or long lines when distance supervision is required.

2.1.3 Single PhaseComparison Blocking, Current Only

In the current only system, the TC–10B is used with two overcurrent fault detectors (FD

l and FD

2).

1, the carrier start unit, is set

more sensitively than FD

2 and

permits the local square wave signal to key the “ON/OFF” carrier transmitter. FD2, set with a higher pickup than FD1, is used to arm the system for tripping. For transmission lines less than 100 miles long, the FD

pickup is set at 125 percent

of FD

1. For lines longer than 100

miles, the FD

2 pickup is set at 200

percent of FD

1. On a three-terminal

line, FD

2 is set at 250% of FD1,

provided the line length between any two breakers is less than 100 miles. Phase-Comparison cannot occur until FD

2 operates. The

purpose of the two fault detectors is to coordinate the comparison of the local and remote square waves with the keying of the carrier square wave. The carrier must be started

before the comparison is allowed

to ensure that the remote square wave has been received.

The basic operation of the system is shown in Figure 2-3. FD

and FD2at both terminals operate for an internal fault (F

). The square wave inputs to the AND from the local currents are essentially in phase with those transmitted via the channel from the remote terminal. The local square wave turns the carrier “ON” and “OFF” to provide the square wave receiver output for the remote terminal.

A flip flop is energized if the inputs to the AND continue for 4ms, providing a continuous trip output

supervised by FD2 operation. The 4ms correspond to a phase angle difference of 90°, on a 60-Hz base, between the currents at the two terminals. The currents at the two ends of the line may be out of phase by up to 90° and still trip. This is a blocking system, since the receipt of a signal from the channel prevents tripping. The carrier signal, therefore, does not have to be transmitted through the internal fault. No received signal puts a “1” on the AND input. With the remote terminals open, this system provides sensitive instantaneous overcurrent protection for the entire line. As is characteristic of blocking systems, the channel is not required for tripping on internal faults.

For an external fault, such as F

E in Figure 2-3, blocking is essen-

tially continuous, since the remote wave input to the AND is out-of-phase with the local square wave. The secondary ct currents are essentially out-of-phase for an external fault. The currents can, however, be in-phase by up to 90

° on a 60-Hz base

and still block.

2.1.4 Single-Phase, Distance-

Supervised Comparison Blocking

A distance-supervised scheme should be used if the minimum internal three-phase fault current is less than twice the maximum load current. Twice maximum load current allows FD

l to operate positively on the minimum

internal three-phase fault, yet reset when an external fault is followed by a maximum load current flowing through the line. The TC–10B operates in the same manner as when used with the current-only scheme, except for the fault detection and arming techniques.

Two sequence current networks and two distance relays supplement the two overcurrent fault detectors.

One sequence current network responds only to negative and zero sequence currents, detecting all phase-to-phase and ground faults (but not three-phase faults). The output of this adjustable network operates the conventional overcurrent FD

l and FD2

fault detectors. The two distance relays operate only for threephase faults. Thus, FD

2 provides the arming

function for all unbalanced phase and ground faults, through the adjustable filter, and one of the distance relays (21P) provides arming for all three-phase faults.

The second and non-adjustable sequence current network operates through the squaring amplifier, providing the local square wave and the carrier-keyed square wave required for phase comparison. This signal is keyed by FD

and the second distance relay (21S) to provide the carrier start functions. This second network responds to positive, negative, and zero sequence currents. Separate networks provide greater sensitivity: with phase-tophase faults, for example, more than twice the sensitivity is gained.

Both 21S and 21Pdistance relays must be set to overreach both the local and remote terminal buses; 21S must be set further than 21P, as shown.

|| 2.1.5 Phase Comparison Relaying

and 20V Auxilliary Power Supply

|| When ordering a TC-10B for use with phase comparison relaying, a 20V auxilliary power supply is provided.

The majority of interfaces between the relay and the communications equipment are done at the station battery. If the control battery is 125Vdc, then the carrier output will be powered up with 125Vdc to provide station battery voltage to the relay. However, in phase comparison relay systems, the ratio, of the on and off state, of the carrier circuit ouptut and the on and off state of the relay’s keying circuit is critical to provide a square wave that closely represents the power system ac wave. Therefore, based on the type of inputs used on the relay system at the point it interfaces with the carrier system, this will determine what voltage level is acceptable. This criticality is on the order of 500 or less microseconds.

Due to the capacitors typically applied to output circuits to dampen surges, the higher the voltage applied, the longer it will take to dissipate the energy . Therefore, to dissipate this ener gy quickly, to adhere to the timing requirements for a secure phase comparison relay system, the use of the auxilliary 20V power supply is necessary. Different relay manufacturers’ input circuits may vary and can conceivably decay fast enough not to hinder the security of the relay system operation. However, the energy dissipated will also generate a significant amount of heat. By utilizing the auxilliary supply, mounted on the rear of the carrier unit, it will allow that heat to be outside of either unit.

Pulsar strongly recommends the application of the auxilliary power supply for two reasons; decay time of the energy, and the heating caused by the dissipation of energy.||

2.2 Special Application

Considerations

Because the TC–10B is “ON/OFF” modulated, only one frequency (f

) is required for line protec-

tion. When applied to three terminal lines, phase

cancellation will occur when two or more transmitters are keyed simultaneously. To prevent this, you should offset transmitters by ±100Hz, using the thumbwheel frequency programming switches. The three frequencies should be:

•f

•fC- 100Hz

•f

+ 100Hz

When using the TC–10B with the SKBU-1 PhaseComparison, you must offset the transmitter frequencies from the center frequency by 100 Hz for all applications. In a two-terminal application, set the transmitter at one end 100Hz above the center frequency, and the transmitter at the other end 100Hz below the center frequency. Thus, the two transmitters are spaced 200Hz from each other. For a three terminal line, you should offset the transmitter as described in the above paragraph.

The TC–10B does not have an adjustable filter or hybrid attached to the output of the transmitter.

If you are using the TC–10B in an application where no other power line carrier equipment is attached to the power line, then no further action is required. However, in the application of

Single Comparator Phase Comparison relaying, the TC–10B is to be operated in the four-wire mode (see RF Interface Module), with an external skewed hybrid between transmitter and receiver.

If you are applying the carrier set with other transmitters, coupled through the same tuning equipment, you must apply a hybrid or a series LC unit to the transmitter output to isolate the other transmitters from the TC–10B transmitter. This will avoid the problems of intermodulation distortion. We suggest that you use a hybrid if the frequency spacing between all transmitters is within the bandwidth of the hybrid (usually 6%). Check the manufacturers instructions for the actual spacing limitations of the hybrid you are using. If you cannot use a hybrid, then you may use a series LC unit to isolate the transmitters. In this case, the transmitters must have spacing such that the LC you are using will attenuate the

external frequencies by at least 20dB (if the other frequency is a 10 watt transmitter), and 30dB (if the other frequency is a 100 watt transmitter).

2.3 Ordering Information

The TC–10B carrier is functionally compatible with earlier type carrier equipment (e.g., KR, TC, TC-10, TC-10A). That is, you may use the TC–10B with these other carrier types at the opposite end of the line, with or without voice function. You may use the same telephone handset unit with any of these ON-OFF carrier sets.

You may use the TC–10B carrier set with the following types of relay systems:

• All Directional-Comparison Blocking Systems

• Phase-Comparison Blocking Systems, e.g., SKBU-1 (Requires 45-Vdc power

supply — please see Table 2-5.)

Simplified schematics of typical electro-mechanical systems are shown in Figure 2-5 through Figure 2-13 (schemes A thru K). These schemes indicate the different jumper positions required for particular applications. Simplified connections between the TC–10B and a microprocessor based relay are shown in Figure 2-14 (Scheme L).

Figure 2-15 shows the output circuit for microprocessor based relays (1 amp maximum output).

Figure 2-16 shows the resultant output circuit for 48, 125, and 250Vdc systems.

Two variations of TC–10B are available: (1) Plug-in Voice Adapter Module with signaling

as a push-to-talk maintenance voice channel (see Chapter 17). Atelephone jack is provided on the Voice Adapter Module, but you may also use a remote jack or hookswitch. (See Figure 18-4, Scheme J, for the connection diagrams.)

(2) Plug-in Universal Checkback Module for

periodic testing of the carrier channel at programmable intervals (see Chapter 17). (See Figure 3–3 for connection diagrams.)

The equipment identification number (catalog number) is located in the middle of the front panel (just to the left of the 10W PA Module). The TC–10B catalog number comprises eight (8) characters, each in a specific position. This number identifies the unit's technical characteristics and capabilities, as well as any optional modules installed in the unit.

Table 2-2 provides a complete listing of the options for ordering a TC–10B, as well as a sample catalog number. To order one or more TC–10Bs, simply identify the features and optional modules you want for each chassis. For example, the typical catalog number shown in Table 2-2 — S1A1WVAS— orders a TC–10B with the following features:

3.6 Connections

3.6.1 Safety Precautions

Read this Installation chapter thoroughly before making any connections to the TC–10B. No one

should be permitted to handle any of the equipment that is supplied with high voltage, or connect any external apparatus to the equipment, unless that person is thoroughly familiar with the hazards involved.

Three types of connections are made:

• TC–10B equipment ground

• DC power supply and other connections

• Coaxial cables

• RS-232 (reserved for future use)

3.6.2 TC–10B Equipment Ground

In addition to the TC–10B chassis ground connection that is made through the cabinet or rack, a ground connection is provided at the Rear Panel Terminal Block TB7. (See Figure 3-1.) A connection should be made between TB7 Terminal 6 and the earth ground connection at the TC–10B cabinet location.

October 2003 Page 3–3

Chapter 3. Installation

CAUTION

PRIOR TO MAKING CONNECTIONS, CLOSE THE RF GROUNDING KNIFE SWITCH IN THE CABINET THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE INCOMING COAXIAL CABLE.

3.6.3 DC Power Supply and Other Connections

Input terminals TB7-1 and TB7-2, on the rear of the TC–10B chassis, provide the connection points for the power supply (48, 125 and 250Vdc) and customer inter-connections. (See Figure 3-1). The terminal blocks can accept up to a 12 AWG wire with a ring lug type Burndy YAV1DL36/ YAV10 or equivalent.

Any lead coming to or from the switchyard should be shielded twisted pair to reduce transients to below the Surge Withstand Capability of ANSI C37.90.1.

3.6.4 Coaxial Cable

A coaxial cable is required for a low-impedance path between the TC–10B (Transmitter and Receiver modules) and the Line Tuner (in the switchyard). Connection jack J1, on the Rear Panel, provides the point for coaxial cable connection from the TC–10B to the switchyard.

• Single-conductor

• #12 AWG

•7 strand #21 copper

• Polyethylene insulator

• Copper shield

•Vinyl jacket (nominal O.D. 0.405 inch)

If the coaxial cable is to connect to related cabinets en route to the switchyard, we recommend RG-58A/U cable from J1 to the related cabinets and RG-213/U from the cabinets to the switchyard. For connection to J1 using RG-

58A/U cable, use a male UHF connector (Amphenol #83-58FCP or equivalent). Install the coaxial cable according to the following guidelines:

1. Attach both ends of the coaxial cable in accordance with the Cable Termination Diagram (see Figure 3-2, terminal block lugs, as required).

2. To hold carrier loss to a minimum, keep the cable the shortest possible length.

The minimum cable bending diameter is six times the cable diameter.

3. The copper braid of the cable must be grounded at the end which connects to the TC–10B.

4. Without grounding the copper braid of the cable, connect the cable to the ground terminal of the Line Tuner, at either of the following:

• Impedance Matching Transformer

•Wideband Filter If you are connecting the cable directly to the

line tuner, the cable connector can enter the line tuner base either through the side or the bottom of the base.

3.6.5 RS-232 Connector

This RS-232 DB9 female connector is reserved for future use.

October 2003 Page 3–5

Chapter 3. Installation

NOTE

The type of coaxial cable we recommend is RG-213/U (52Ω, 29.5 PF/FOOT) with the

following characteristics:

CAUTION

DO NOT GROUND TO THE END OF THE CABLE THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE LINE TUNER.

1. On the Keying Module control panel, press the bottom push button (marked “LL”), to key the Transmitter at Low Level power.

2. Record the Selective Level Meter reading (at TJ1, TJ2). The meter should measure .0707Vrms (-10dBm at 50Ω reference) for Low-Level keying (1W power). If the meter measures -10dBm, skip to Step 5.

3. If the meter does not measure -10dBm, turn power “OFF” at the Power Supply Module, and remove the Transmitter Module from the chassis. Place the extender board into the Transmitter Module position of the chassis. Then plug the Transmitter Module onto the extender board.

4. Adjust the 1W potentiometer (R12) on the Transmitter Module, until the Selective Level Meter (at the 10W PA TJ1, TJ2) reads

.0707 Vrms (-10dBm at 50Ω reference). Then place the Transmitter Module back in the chassis.

5. On the Keying Module control panel, release the “LL” push button to un-key the Transmitter Module.

5.6.3 Check Voice-Level Output

Perform this procedure only if you are using the Voice Level Option.

With the conditions the same as for the HighLevel output check, i.e.,

• Selective Level Meter at 10W PA Module

control panel (TJ1, TJ2)

• Meter tuned to XMTR frequency

• Power “ON”

do the following:

1. Key the carrier set with the Push-to-Talk switch (on the handset), while muting the microphone, to key the Transmitter at VoiceLevel (4.3W power, when High-Level is 10W power).

2. Record the Selective Level Meter reading (at TJ1, TJ2). The meter should measure .148Vrms (-3.6dBm at 50Ω reference) for Voice Keying. If the meter measures -3.6dBm, skip to Step 5.

3. If the meter does not measure -3.6dBm, turn power “OFF” at the Power Supply Module and remove the Transmitter Module from the chassis. Place the extender board into the Transmitter Module position of the chassis. Then plug the Transmitter Module onto the extender board.

4. Turn the Voice Adjust potentiometer (R14), on the Transmitter Module, until the Selective Level Meter (TJ1, TJ2) reads .148Vrms (-

3.6dBm at 50Ω reference). Then place the Transmitter back in the chassis.

5. Monitor the output of the carrier set with an oscilloscope at the 10W P AModule test jacks:

• TJ1

• TJ2

6. Voice key the Transmitter by pushing the Push-to-Talk switch (on handset) and using the signal generator at 1 kHz (TB5/2 and 3) to set the level to achieve the following voltages:

October 2003 Page 5–5

Chapter 5. Installation / Adjustment Procedures

NOTE

We recommended that you set the low level power 10dB below full power. However, you may use any power level between 10W and 50mW.

NOTE

The “V” LED should show red.

NOTE

The “LL” LED should not be red.

NOTE

If a full power level (other than 10W) is used, the VF level should be set accordingly, i.e., 3.6dB below the High-Level value.

• ∪ 62V p-p (at peak modulation)

• ∪ 20V p-p (valley)

7. If the ratio of the voltages (0.62/0.20) do not approximate a value of 3, adjust potentiometer R11 on the Transmitter, as follows:

• Clockwise if not enough signal (a value

less than 3).

• Counterclockwise if too much signal (a

value significantly greater than 3).

8. Un-key the Push-to-Talk switch (on handset).

5.6.4 Adjust the Transmitter Power

Output Levels

1. Move the Selective Level Meter to the test jacks marked “LINE” (on the RF Interface control panel): TJ1 (Line – top jack) and TJ2 (Common – bottom jack)

2. On the Keying Module control panel, press and hold the bottom (“LL”) push button to key the Transmitter at Low-Level power.

3. On the RF Interface Module control panel, configure the output impedance by setting a Jumper. The Selective Level Meter (TJ1, TJ2) should show a maximum reading (Vrms) for 1 W (+30dBm) power, as follows:

• JU4, when set, provides 50Ω (7.07Vrms)

• JU3, when set, provides 75Ω (8.6Vrms)

• JU2, when set, provides 100Ω (10.0Vrms)

4. If the above (Vrms) values are not achieved, adjust the “INPUT LEVEL SET” potentiometer (R53) on the 10W P AModule control panel to obtain 7.07Vrms (for 50Ω reference).

5. On the Keying Module control panel, release the “LL” push button to unkey the Transmitter Module.

6. Check the High-Level key for 10W output.

7. Turn power “OFF” at the Power Supply Module.

8. Remove the 50, 75, or 100Ω resistor termination and replace the coaxial cable connection to the Line Tuner.

5.7 Offset TC–10B Transmitter

Frequency

It the Transmitter frequency needs to be offset (for- three-terminal line applications), monitor the Transmitter frequency with a Frequency Counter.

1. Make sure that the power is “OFF” at the Power Supply Module and remove the Transmitter Module from the chassis.

2. On the Transmitter Module, turn rotary switch S4 to raise or lower the Transmitter frequency (in 100Hz steps) as follows:

a) At Transmitter #1 (near end), turn rotary

switch S4 clockwise to raise the frequency (center frequency +100Hz).

b) At Transmitter #2 (far end), turn rotary

switch S4 counterclockwise to lower the frequency (center frequency –100Hz).

Page 5–6 October 2003

TC–10B System Manual

Technologies, Inc.

NOTE

The “LL” LED should show red.

NOTE If you want a final output power of less than 10 W, reduce power by adjusting the input level potentiometer (R53) on the 10W PA Module for the lower power. If a sufficiently low level is not obtainable using R53, repeat the above alignment procedures using the reduced level.

NOTE

Customer personnel should use voice communications while working simultaneously, with transmitter #1 (near end) and transmitter #2 (far end), to perform the following procedure:

NOTE

The third terminal’s transmitter should remain at center frequency.

3. Replace the transmitter module into the chassis and proceed to the next step.

5.8 Check TC–10B Receiver Margin Setting using Remote Carrier Signal

1. At the Power Supply Module, turn the power “ON”.

2. Arrange for a received signal from the remote end.

3. Sensitivity setting:

On the Receiver module perform the following to complete the setting:

a) Hit “SET” twice until the display reads

“SET SENS?”

b) With the remote signal being received (at

the remote end, push the “HL button on the keying module), depress “SET” again.

c) If you’re not adjusting the 15dB margin,

depress “SET” again. If you are, then depress “RAISE” or “LOWER” as required to adjust it up or down 5dB, then press set.

d) If you are not going to adjust an external

carrier level meter, depress “SET”.

Otherwise, press “RAISE” or “LOWER” as required, then press set.

e) Unkey the remote carrier set & key the

local carrier set by depressing the HL TEST button on the keying module and pressing the “SET” button on the receiver module.

f) This completes the setting of the receiver

margin.

4. If you are just checking the sensitivity setting, read the Tri-color bar graph CLI while receiving a remote signal.

5.9 Select Optional Checkback

Module Conditions

If you are using the optional Universal Checkback Module, select the desired conditions for the module’s operation.

5.10 Prepare TC–10B for

Operation

1. Be sure that power is “ON” at the Power Supply Module.

2. Replace the cover on the TC–10B control panel. Secure both latches by pushing inward and sideways until the cover is secure. You may lock the latches in place using meter seals.

This completes the “Routine Alignment” procedure. The TC–10B is ready to be put into operation.

October 2003 Page 5–7

Chapter 5. Installation / Adjustment Procedures

NOTES:

1. The foregoing procedure adjusts the Receiver margin to the recommended 15dB value.

2. The Receiver bargraph CLI meter reading should be 0dB at this time.

3. In three-terminal line applications, the margin adjustment procedure should use the weaker of the two received signals.

4. When applying the TC–10B with a phase comparison relay, do not readjust the Receiver level when keying with a square wave signal. The CLI will read around -10dB, but this is an average reading of the on and off square wave. The receiver will still maintain the 15dB margin. The CLI reading is only accurate for a nonamplitude modulated signal.

NOTE

When placing the TC–10B into service, refer to the System manual that is appropriate for the relay system you are using with the TC–10B system.

7.2.8 Universal Checkback Module (if supplied)

The DIP switch, labeled "SW3", is on the bottom left of the Module's PC board. The module reads the switch's setting at power-up to determine its configuration. Any changes to the switch's setting after power-up are ignored until you turn the power off and on again.

Using Table 7-2 as a guide, set the DIP switch to the desired setting. Note that only S1-S3 are used; S4 is reserved for future use. To set S1-S3, put them in the up position for OFF and the down position for ON. You can set the DIPswitch to one of five possible configurations. All other switch combinations (of S1-S3) are invalid. If you mistakenly set a different combination, the module assumes the "CUSTOM" mode.

If you set the DIP switch to one of the factory preset settings, the module is locked into that configuration. You cannot customize the settings. For descriptions of the individual settings, please see the "Configuration Settings" section in chapter

16. If you set the DIP switch to the "CUSTOM"

option, you can use your PC or laptop to configure the module any way you want. (See "Using your

PC to Communicate with the Universal Checkback Module" for complete configuration

instructions.)

8.1 Precautions When

Selecting Test Equipment

(See Chapter 4 for test equipment specifications.) To prevent damage to solid-state components and

circuits:

1) Use transformer-type signal generators, VTVMs and signal tracers, which isolate the test equipment from the power line. Whenever the test equipment uses a transformerless power supply, use an isolation type transformer. The test equipment ground should be isolated from the ac source ground.

2) Use multi-meters with at least 20,000 Ohms-per-volt sensitivity.

8.2 Precautions When Using Test Equipment

1. Use a common ground between the chassis of

the test equipment and the transistor equipment.

2. When testing transistors and diodes, give

special attention to the polarity of the meter leads.

For example: When measuring the forward resistance of a diode using a meter that has the internal battery connected to the metering circuit, be sure that:

• The lead marked ( + ) touches the diode anode.

• The lead marked ( – ) touches the diode cathode.

3. When checking circuits with an oscillographic probe, be sure to discharge any built-up capacitive voltage by touching the probe to a ground before touching the circuit.

When individual module maintenance is required, either at the factory or at the customer installation (beyond the scope of routine alignment), the following procedures are applicable.

Chapter 8. Maintenance

CAUTION

HIGH CURRENTS FROM A LOW-SENSITIVITY METER CAN DAMAGE SOLID STATE DEVICES.

CAUTION

METERING TRANSISTOR CIRCUITS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE. FOR EXAMPLE: A BASE-TOCOLLECTOR SHORT DURING TRANSISTOR OPERATION CAN DESTROYTHE TRANSISTOR.

8.3 Periodic Checks

Every six months, take the following readings on the TC–10B Test Jacks (at the control panel).

We recommend that you keep a log book as a visible record of periodic checks, as well as a source for indicating any gradual degradation in a module’s performance.

8.4 Inspection

A program of routine visual inspection should include:

• Condition of cabinet or other housing

•Tightness of mounting hardware and fuses

• Proper seating of plug-in relays and sub-

assemblies

• Condition of internal and external wiring

(the location where external wiring enters the cabinet should be sealed)

• Appearance of printed circuit boards and

components

• Signs of overheating in equipment:

•Interference with proper heat dissipation from surfaces

• Clogged air vents (air filters should be removed and washed out)

• Dust which may cause short-circuits

8.5 Solid-State Maintenance Techniques

Use the following techniques when servicing solid state equipment.

8.5.1 Preliminary Precautions

1. To avoid damage to circuits and components from a current surge, disconnect power before replacing or removing components or circuits.

2. Before placing new components into a defective circuit, check the circuit so that it cannot damage the new components.

8.5.2 Trouble-Detection Sequence

1. Evaluate test jack readings and other records of routine alignment.

2. Evaluate any symptoms detected audibly or visually.

3. Replace suspected plug-in components.

4. Further isolation of faults includes:

•Voltage readings

• Resistance readings

• Signal injection

• Re-alignment

• Sensitivity measurements

• Gain measurements

5. Replace suspected faulty components.

6. Check-out and adjust affected circuits.

October 2003 Page 8–3

Chapter 8. Maintenance

CAUTION

WE RECOMMEND THAT THE USER OF THIS EQUIPMENT BECOME ACQUAINTED WITH THE INFORMATION IN THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE ENERGIZING THE TC–10B AND ASSOCIATED ASSEMBLIES. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS PRECAUTION MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.

YOU SHOULD NEITHER REMOVE OR INSERT PRINTED CIRCUIT MODULES WHILE THE TC–10B IS ENERGIZED. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS PRECAUTION CAN RESULT IN COMPONENT DAMAGE.

ALL INTEGRATED CIRCUITS USED ON THE MODULES ARE SENSITIVE TO AND CAN BE DAMAGED BY THE DISCHARGE OF STATIC ELECTRICITY. BE SURE TO OBSERVE ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING MODULES OR INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS.

8.5.3 Servicing Components Soldered Directly to Terminals

1. Avoid overheating from soldering by using a

low-wattage soldering iron (i.e., 60W maximum).

2. Make sure there is no current leakage from the

soldering iron.

3. When soldering leads from transistors or

diodes, use heat sinks, e.g., alligator clips.

4. You can remove molten solder from the board

with a desoldering tool.

5. When removing a multi-lead component from

a printed circuit board, first cut all leads and then remove the leads individually (to prevent overheating). If there are only a few leads, you can use a broad-tip soldering iron.

8.5.4 Servicing Components Mounted Directly on Heat Sinks

1. Remove the heat sink and bracket from the

chassis by loosening the securing devices.

2. Remove the transistor, diode, or other device

from the heat sink.

3. When replacing the transistor, diode, or other

device, make certain that the device and the heat sink make secure contact for good heat dissipation. Mount a device first on the heat sink, and then on the board. Also, make sure that you replace all insulators, washers, spring

washers and other mounting hardware as you originally found them.

8.5.5 Servicing Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) Devices

MOS devices may be vulnerable to static changes. Be sure to observe the special precautions described below both before and during assembly .

Precautions to take before assembly

•Avoid wearing silk or nylon clothing, as this contributes to static buildup.

•Avoid carpeted areas and dry environments.

• Discharge body static by placing both hands on a metal, earth-grounded surface.

Precautions to take during assembly

•Wear a ground strap during assembly

•Avoid touching electrically conductive circuit parts by hand

• When removing a module from the chassis, always place it on a conductive surface which is grounded through a resistance of approximately 100KΩ

• Make sure that all electrically powered test equipment is properly grounded.

Page 8–4 October 2003

TC–10B System Manual

Technologies, Inc.

NOTE

You may use an isolation transformer to prevent current leakage.

NOTE

We recommend a very light coating of DC-4 (DowCorning 4 Compound Silicon Lubricant) for transistors and diodes that are mounted on heat sinks.

CAUTION

AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE.

NOTE

Before touching a module with a test probe, connect the ground lead from the test equipment to the module. Always disconnect the test probe before removing the ground lead equipment.

9.1 Power Supply Module Description

The Power Supply Module for the TC–10B/TCF–10B has dual dc/dc high-frequency switching regulators which generate regulated voltage outputs of ±20Vdc (between 1.5A and

2.0A for operation of the TC–10B/TCF–10B

modules. It also provides protection from battery surge, transients, short circuits, and reverse voltage. The Power Supply Module can receive inputs from three available groups of station batteries: 38-70Vdc, 88-140Vdc, and 176280Vdc.

• dc/dc Converter (2)

• Output Filter

Fuses

125V 250V

F1, F2 3A 1.6A 3/4A

ON/OFF Switch

S1 - Push button Switch (DPDT) When in the “ON” position (pins 1 and 4), dc

current flows through the input filter to the dc/dc converter.

Input Filter

The input filter (C1, C2, C3) contains zener diodes (Z1, Z2) that provide protection against surges, a diode (D1) that provides protection against reverse polarity, a differential choke XFMR (L1), and the Red Input LED1.

Power Alarm Failure Relay

This circuit includes:

• K1 - Alarm Relay

• J1 - Jumper (NO/NC)

In versions G01, G02, and G03 the field-selectable option can change the alarm contact de-energized state to NO or NC. (It is currently shipped in the NC de-energized state, and can be changed to NO if desired.)

DC/DC Converter

The two dc/dc converters (PS1 and PS2) operate at a maximum of 1MHz and, as a result, switching noise is outside the 30-535kHz range of the TC–10B/TCF–10B. The converter outputs, +20Vdc and -20Vdc, is fed to the output filter. (See Figure 9-3.)

Output Filter

The output filter for the +20V consists of C4, C6, C8, and Z4. The output filter for the -20V consists of C5, C7, C9, and Z3.

9.3 Power Supply Troubleshooting

The three test jacks on the control panel:

• TP3 (+20Vdc)

• TP2 (Common)

• TP1 (-20Vdc)

can be used to determine if the two voltages (+20Vdc, -20Vdc) are present. In addition, LED2 output indicates that the dc/dc converters are generating voltage. LED1 input indicates that voltage is present at the input of the dc/dc converter.

For basic troubleshooting, perform the following procedure:

1. If LED1 is not on with the module energized,

turn off switch S1, remove and check the fuses (F1, F2) with an ohmmeter.

2. With the module de-energized, check the

ON/OFF switch (S1) with an ohmmeter to be sure it opens and closes accordingly.

NOTE

When the alarm is part of the system, JU1 is shipped in the NC state.

3. If LED2 is not on with the module energized, check the +20V and -20V outputs at TP3 and TP1, respectively. The one with voltage absent will require replacement of the associated dc/dc converter.

10.2 Keying Circuit Description

The Keying Module (see Figure 10-3) provides an optically-isolated interface between the carrier and the relay system and controls the operation of the Transmitter Module with the following customer inputs:

• Carrier Start (High-Level Test)

• Carrier Stop

• Low-Level Test

• Optional Checkback Test at High-Level

• Optional Checkback Test at Low-Level

• Optional Voice

Keying Module outputs are as follows:

• High-Level (10W)

• Any Transmitter Key

•Voice (4.3W)

The logic blocks used are as follows:

• “AND” gate

• “OR” gate

• “Exclusive OR” gate

• “Inverter”

Logic “1” is +18.6Vdc. Logic “0” is +3.6Vdc. The following truth tables describe the operation of the building blocks.

Customer inputs operate as follows:

Carrier Start

When jumper JU6 is in the NORM position, carrier start will be initiated when the proper voltage level (15V, 48V, 125V, or 250V) is applied to pins A-10/C-10. When JU6 is in the INVERT position, carrier start will be initiated when voltage is removed from the input A/C-10.

Page 10–2 October 2003

TC–10B System Manual

Technologies, Inc.

Carrier Stop

When jumper JU5 is in the NORM position, carrier stop will initiate when jumper JU2 (pins A-16/C-16) is set at the appropriate voltage level (15V, 48V, 125V, or 250V); when JU5 is in the INVERT position, carrier stop will initiate when voltage is removed.

Low-Level Test

When jumper JU4 is in the NORM position, a Low-Level test will initiate when jumper JU3 (pins A-22/C-22) is set at the appropriate voltage level (15V, 48V, 125V, or 250V); when JU4 is in the INVERT position, a LowLevel test will initiate when voltage is removed.

When the appropriate jumper is in place on the board, jumpers JU1, JU2, and JU3 provide logic “1” or “0” inputs. (Proper polarity of these input commands must be observed.)

You can manually initiate a Low-Level test by pressing the (recessed) push button switch (S2) on the front panel. You can manually initiate a HighLevel test by pressing the (recessed) push button switch (S1).

You can initiate an optional High-Level checkback key through pin C-8. You can initiate an optional Low-Level checkback key through pin C-28. A voice key can be initiated through pin C-24.

Keying Module outputs are as follows:

High-Level (10W) Key Pin A-8 Any Transmitter Key Pin C-6

(1-W, 4.3W, or l0W) Voice (4.3W) Key Pin A-6

Front panel LEDs are illuminated as follows:

D10 High-Level D11 Low-Level D12 Voice

You can make the STOP command inhibit the High-Level (10W) output by using jumper JU7. The STOP command also inhibits the Voice Key output. The Voice Key is inhibited by the HighLevel and Low-Level Keys.

Zener diodes (D1, D2, D3) limit the input voltage to the optical isolators (I7, I8, I9), while also providing reverse voltage protection. Zener diodes (D14, D13) regulate primary power (pins A-2/A-4, pins A-30/A-32, pins C-30/C-32) down to 15V, while also providing reverse voltage protection.

Transistor (Q1), JU8, R40, D15, D16, D17, and R41 are used for special applications with KDAR and SKBU type keying circuits. These particular relay applications have a single line input for carrier start. The line has a tri-state condition, i.e., it is active high, active low, or open circuit. For example, as shown in Figure 2-13 in the Applications chapter, under normal operating conditions, the input to TB4-1 is an open circuit (while looking back into Z1). CSB, CSP, and SQ are open, and zener diode (Z1) is much larger than 20Vdc. When the carrier test switch is depressed, or the phase and ground carrier start contacts open, the line going to TB4-1 goes active high. If the phase and ground carrier stop contacts close, the line going to TB4-1 is active low.

As shown in the schematic of the keying load (Figure 10-3) and Q1 circuitry, when A-10 is high (same as TB4-1), carrier start is initiated and carrier stop is inhibited. This is caused by R40 and D15 saturating Q1 and shorting out the stop voltage applied to D7. C-16 is connected to the battery so that D2 ALWAYS has 20V across it. When TB4-1 (A-10) goes active low, Diode D17 shorts out the drive voltage to Q1, and internal diode I8 conducts, causing a STOP function to be generated. The following TRUTH table illustrates the operation:

October 2003 Page 10–3

Chapter 10. Keying Module

NOTE

Carrier start will initiate a High-Level test.

A10 CXR START CXR STOP

HIGH YES NO

LOW NO YES

OPEN NO NO

When operating with systems other than KDAR or SKBU, normally J8 is left out, and three separate command lines (START, STOP, and LL) are used.

10.3 Keying Troubleshooting

Should a fault occur in the Keying Module, place the module on an extender board. Six jumpers (JU1 through JU6) are used to select input keying voltages and the sense required. Aseventh jumper (JU7) governs start/stop priority. The three optical isolators (I7, I8, I9) may be tested using the onboard +18.6Vdc source (D13 cathode). When a logic “1” is applied to any of the 15V inputs (R4, R9, or R14), with the jumper removed, pin 5 of the selected optical isolator (I7, I8, or I9) will go low.

You can check other components on the PC Board by conventional means.

11.1 Transmitter Module Description

The function of the TC–10B/TCF–10B Transmitter Module is to provide the RF signal which drives the 10W PA Module. The Transmitter’s frequency range is from 30kHz to 535kHz, programmable in 0.1 kHz (100Hz) steps by four rotary switches on the Transmitter. The Transmitter is slaved to a crystal oscillator.

The TC–10B/TCF–10B Transmitter Module operates from keyed inputs (set by jumpers at the Keying Module):

• High-Level Key

• Any Transmitter Key

•Voice Key

• Shift High (TCF–10B only)

• Shift Low (TCF–10B only)

The Transmitter Module also operates with a signal from the Optional Voice Adapter Module:

• AM Voice

The Transmitter Module operates with either no shift (TC-10B) or one of three different frequency shifts (TCF-10B), selectable by a four-position dip switch (S5).

11.1.1 Transmitter Control Panel

(This panel is shown in Figure 11-1.) Operator controls consist of four thumbwheel

11.2 Transmitter Circuit Description

The function of the Transmitter Module (see Figure 11-4, Schematic 1355D71) is to provide the RF signal (0dBm/.001W, 50Ω balanced), which drives the 10W PA Module. The Transmitters frequency range is from 30kHz to

535kHz, programmable in 0.1kHz (100Hz) steps by four rotary switches on the Transmitter. The Transmitter Module operates from keyed inputs (set by jumpers at the Keying Module):

• High-Level (10W) Key (pins C/A-8)

• Any Transmitter Key (pin A-10)

•Voice Key (pins C/A-6)

• Shift High (pin C-10) (TCF–10B Only)

• Shift Low (pins A/C 24) (TCF–10B Only)

The Transmitter Module also operates from an audio signal from the Optional Voice Adapter Module: AM Voice (pins C/A-26). Refer to Figure 11-5, Transmitter Block Diagram.

Frequencies are selected using the four BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) switches (SW1 thru SW4); the range is from 30.0 to 535.0kHz, in

0.1kHz (100Hz) steps. The 15-bit output of the BCD switches is converted to a 13-bit binary number by the BCD-to-Binary converter (ROMs I1 and I2).

The 13-bit output of ROMs I1 and I2 provides an input to the Shift and Control Logic (I3), which consists of three parts:

1. A full adder/subtracter which functions under control of:

• Shift High (Add)

• Shift Low (Subtract)

2. A frequency-shift, in 50Hz increments from 0 to 750Hz, selected by the 4-position dipswitch (S5).

3. A sequencer and multiplexer (MUX) which provides the following outputs to the Numerical Controlled Oscillator (NCO I4):

• Address select (ADDR)

•Write (WRN)

• Load (LDSTB)

•2 (8-bit sequential) data bytes

The NCO (I4) generates digital sine functions of very precise frequency, to be used in conjunction with a D/A converter (I5) in analog frequency
