DIGSI - Typical CFC applications
Extension of the release condition for a switching command
(e.g. by the position of a further disconnector and the information item "spring charged")
Display of an application-specific group indication in an LED
(single indications logically combined with operators, such as AND, OR, NOT)
Display of a new dynamic symbol for an item of equipment in the
display
(various states calculated by the CFC logic)
Switchover of the parameter group
(on phase currents dropping below a limit value)
Blinking alarm LED if the switching authority is set to "LOCAL"
Implementation of a protection function not offered in the relay
(e.g. "Reverse power protection" or "Efficiency monitoring")
Forced sequence switching after pressing a function key on the relay
(e.g. automatic grounding)
Step-by-step load shedding on power deficit
(calculation of suitable feeders by the CFC logic)
