The IDP-801 Interactive Display Panel is a 7.5 inch/19 centimeter (measured

diagonally) color touchscreen interface that enables a user to monitor and

control a Basler Electric DECS-based excitation system.

IDP-801 monitoring and control features include DECS and excitation system

status, system control operations, and routine adjustments of the excitation

setpoint. The IDP-801 is compatible with DECS-250. DECS-250N, DECS-250E,

DECS-400. and DECS-450 Digital Excitation Control Systems.

DECS and synchronous machine system parameters are viewed and controlled

through interactive pages displayed by the IDP-801. Pages are organized according

to system functions. Navigation between pages and control of functions is achieved

by touching buttons located on the IDP-801 pages.

Communication between the IDP-801 and DECS is facilitated through the serial

communication port of the IDP-801 and the RS-485 port of the DECS.

One IDP-801 can monitor both the primary and secondary DECS in a dual DECS

application. The IDP-801 is equipped with an Ethernet communication port which

provides access to Modbus® registers for system monitoring and control of the DECS.

This capability enables integration of the IDP-801 into an existing Distributed Control

System (DCS).
