Basler Electric IDP-801 monitoring and control features include DECS
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).
