Page 11: Product Description
This chapter outlines the product, order codes, and specifications. 2.1 Product description The C30 Controller System is part of the Universal Relay (UR) series of products. It is a microprocessor-based device designed for power substation control and monitoring. Diagnostic features include a sequence of records capable of storing 1024 time-tagged events. The internal clock used for time-tagging can be synchronized with an IRIG-B signal, using the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) over the Ethernet port, or using the Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
Page 12: Security
The C30 supports password entry from a local or remote connection. Local access is defined as any access to settings or commands via the faceplate interface. This includes both keypad entry and the through the faceplate RS232 port. Remote access is defined as any access to settings or commands via any rear communications port.
Page 13 This means that the EnerVista software allows for access to functionality based on the user’s logged in role. Example: Observer cannot write any settings. The table lists user roles and their corresponding capabilities. C30 CONTROLLER SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL...

The terminal configuration for contact inputs is different for the two applications. The contact inputs are grouped with a common return. The C30 has two versions of grouping: four inputs per common return and two inputs per common return. When a contact input/output module is ordered, four inputs per common is used.

Page 56 This common voltage is implied to be a power supply common. Some systems allow the shield (drain wire) to be used as common wire and to connect directly to the C30 COM terminal (#3); others function correctly only if the common wire is connected to the C30 COM terminal, but insulated from the shield.
Page 57: Irig-B
IRIG-B is a standard time code format that allows stamping of events to be synchronized among connected devices. The IRIG-B code allows time accuracies of up to 100 ns. Using the IRIG-B input, the C30 operates an internal oscillator with 1 µs resolution and accuracy.

When a settings file is transferred to a C30 device, the date, time, and serial number of the C30 are sent back to EnerVista UR Setup and added to the settings file on the local computer. This information can be compared with the C30 actual values at any later date to determine if security has been compromised.
Page 99 With respect to the figure, the traceability feature is used as follows. The transfer date of a settings file written to a C30 is logged in the relay and can be viewed in the EnerVista software or the front panel display. Likewise, the transfer date of a settings file saved to a local computer is logged in the EnerVista software.

Page 192 Spontaneous transmission occurs as a response to cyclic Class 2 requests. If the C30 wants to transmit Class 1 data at that time, it demands access for Class 1 data transmission (ACD=1 in the control field of the response).
Page 193 INFORMATION NUMBER (INF) as defined in IEC 60870-103. — This is the cyclic period used by the C30 to decide when a measurand ASDU is included in a SCAN TIMEOUT (SCAN TOUT) response. The measurand is sent as response to a Class 2 request when the corresponding timeout expires. The default value 0 means 500 ms.
Page 194 FlexAnalog operands. The measurands sent are voltage, current, power, power factor, and frequency. If any other FlexAnalog is chosen, the C30 sends 0 instead of its value. Note that the power is transmitted in KW, not W. Measurands are transmitted as ASDU 3 or ASDU 9 (type identification value set to measurands I, respectively measurands II).
Page 195: Modbus User Map
Commands are received as General Command (Type Identification 20). The user can configure the action to perform when an ASDU command comes. A list of available mappings is provided on the C30. This includes 64 virtual inputs (see the following table). The ON and OFF for the same ASDU command can be mapped to different virtual inputs.
Page 196: Real-Time Clock
The clock is updated by all sources active in the device. This means that whenever a time synchronization message is received through any of the active protocols, the C30 clock updates. However, given that IEC 60870-5-103, IEC 60870-5- 104, Modbus, and DNP are low-accuracy time synchronization methods, avoid their use for synchronization when better accuracy time protocols, such as IRIG-B, PTP, and SNTP, are active in the system.

The C30 supports the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) specified in IEEE Std 1588 2008 using the Power Profile (PP) specified in IEEE Std C37.238 2011. This enables the relay to synchronize to the international time standard over an Ethernet network that implements PP.
