field current (FCR) or the level of field voltage (FVR). Manual contact input connections are made at
terminals B6 (MAN) and B5 (COM).
Raise
This input increases the active, operating setpoint. The raise setpoint function is active as long as the
contact is closed. The raise increment is a function of the setpoint range of adjustment and the active
mode traverse rate. The increments are directly proportional to the adjustment range and inversely
proportional to the traverse rate. This input has no effect when the active pre-position mode is Maintain.
Raise contact input connections are made at terminals B7 (RAISE) and B8 (COM).
Lower
This input decreases the active, operating setpoint. The lower setpoint function is active as long as the
contact is closed. The lower increment is a function of the setpoint range of adjustment and the active
mode traverse rate. The increments are directly proportional to the adjustment range and inversely
proportional to the traverse rate. This input has no effect when the active pre-position mode is Maintain.
Lower contact input connections are made at terminals B9 (LOWER) and B8 (COM).
Start
This input accepts a momentary contact closure that enables the DECS-400. If the DECS-400 receives
Start and Stop contact inputs simultaneously, the Stop input has priority. Start contact input connections
are made at terminals B1 (START) and B2 (COM).
Stop
This input accepts a momentary contact closure that disables the DECS-400. If the DECS-400 receives
Stop and Start contact inputs simultaneously, the Stop input has priority. Stop contact input connections
are made at terminals B3 (STOP) and B2 (COM).
SW1 SW10
These user-programmable inputs can be connected to monitor the status of excitation system contacts
and switches. Then, using BESTCOMS, these inputs can be used as part of a user-configured logic
scheme to control and annunciate a variety of system conditions and contingencies. Information about
using SW1 through SW10 is provided in the BESTCOMS Software chapter.
Digital Signal Processor
The digital signal processor (DSP) supports measurement, control (output and converters), metering
functions, and filtering. It controls both the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and the digital-to-analog
converter (DAC). All analog input signals from the ADC are filtered by finite impulse response (FIR) filters.
AC signals are also filtered by infinite impulse response (IIR) filters, and dc signals (field voltage and
current) are filtered by averaging filters. Output data to the DAC are used to generate the control output
signals.
Microprocessor
The microprocessor performs control, measurement, computation, self-test, and communication functions
by using its embedded programming (firmware) and the nonvolatile settings stored in its memory.
IRIG Port
When a valid time code signal is detected at the IRIG port, it automatically synchronizes the DECS-400’s
internal clock with the time code signal. Because the IRIG time code signal does not contain year
information, it is necessary for the user to enter the date even when using an IRIG source. Year
information is stored in nonvolatile memory so that when operating power is restored after an outage and
the clock is re-synchronized, the current year is restored.
The IRIG input is fully isolated and accepts a demodulated (dc level-shifted) signal. For proper
recognition, the IRIG signal applied to the DECS-400 must have a logic high level of no less than 3.5 Vdc
and a logic low level that is no higher than 0.5 Vdc. The input signal voltage range is 10 Vdc to +10 Vdc.
