Viewpoint Maintenance

Viewpoint Maintenance provides tools that

will create reports on the operating status of

the relay, simplify the steps to download fault

and event data, and reduce the work required

for cyber security compliance audits. Tools

available in Viewpoint Maintenance include:

• Security/Change History Report

• Device Health Report

• Single-Click Fault Data Retrieval

EnerVista Integrator

EnerVista Integrator is a toolkit that allows

seamless integration of Multilin devices

into new or existing automation systems.

Included in EnerVista Integrator is:

• OPC/DDE Server

• Multilin Drivers

• Automatic Event Retrieval

• Automatic Waveform Retrieval

User Interface

The M60 front panel provides extensive

local HMI capabilities.  The local display

is used for monitoring, status messaging,

fault diagnosis, and device configuration.

User-configurable messages that combine

text with live data can be displayed when

user-defined conditions are met.

EnerVista Launchpad

EnerVista Launchpad is a powerful

software package that provides users with

all of the setup and support tools needed

for configuring and maintaining Multilin

products. The setup software within

Launchpad allows for the configuration

of devices in real-time by communicating

using serial, Ethernet, or modem

connections, or offline by creating setting

files to be sent to devices at a later time.

Included in Launchpad is a document

archiving and management system

that ensures critical documentation is

up-to-date and available when needed.

Documents made available include:

• Manuals

• Application Notes

• Guideform Specifications

• Brochures

• Wiring Diagrams

• FAQs

• Service Bulletins

The UR setup software now contains an

M60 Motor Setting Auto-Configurator

that configures all of the settings

required to protect and control a motor

in six simple steps.  Simply entering the

motor nameplate data, the CT and VT

parameters, motor starting data, and

application information, will allow the UR

setup software to generate a complete

setting file customized for protecting and

controlling the motor.

Interoperability with Embedded IEC 61850

Use the M60 with integrated IEC 61850

to lower costs associated with substation

protection, control and automation.  GE

Digital Energy’s leadership in IEC 61850

comes from thousands of installed devices

and follows on extensive development

experience with UCA 2.0.

• Replace expensive copper wiring

between devices with direct transfer of

data using GOOSE messaging

• Configure GE systems based on

IEC 61850 and also monitor and

troubleshoot them in real-time with

EnerVista Viewpoint Engineer

Viewpoint Monitoring

Viewpoint Monitoring is a simple-to-use

and full-featured monitoring and data

recording software package for small

systems. Viewpoint Monitoring provides a

complete HMI package with the following

functionality:

• Plug & Play Device Monitoring

• System Single-Line Monitoring & Control

• Annunciator Alarm Screens

• Trending Reports

• Automatic Event Retrieval

• Automatic Waveform Retrieval

EnerVista Software

The EnerVista suite is an industry-leading

set of software programs that simplifies

every aspect of using the M60 relay. The

EnerVista suite provides all the tools to

monitor the status of your motor, maintain

your relay, and integrate information

measured by the M60 into DCS or

SCADA monitoring systems. Convenient

COMTRADE and SOE  viewers are an

integral part of the UR setup software

included with every UR relay, to carry out

postmortem event analysis and ensure

proper protection system operation.

Multi-Language

UR devices support multiple languages:

English, French, Russian, Chinese, Turkish

and German. These language options are

available on the front panel, in the EnerVista

setup software, and in the product manuals.

Easily switch between English and an

additional language on the local displays

without uploading new firmware.

LAN Redundancy

Substation LAN redundancy has been

traditionally accomplished by reconfiguring

the active network topology in case of

failure. Regardless of the type of LAN

architecture (tree, mesh, etc), reconfiguring

the active LAN requires time to switchover,

during which the LAN is unavailable. UR

devices deliver redundancy as specified

by PRP-IEC 62439-3. which eliminates

the dependency on LAN reconfiguration

and the associated switchover time. The

UR becomes a dual attached node that

transmits data packets over both main and

redundant networks simultaneously, so in

case of failure, one of the data packets will

reach the receiving device with no time delay.

Direct I/O Messaging

Direct I/O allows for the sharing of

high-speed digital information between

multiple UR relays via direct back-to-back

connections or multiplexed through a

standard DS0 multiplexer channel bank.

Regardless of the connection method,

direct I/O provides continuous real

time channel monitoring that supplies

diagnostics information on channel health.

Direct I/O provides superior relay-to-relay

communications that can be used in

advanced interlocking and blockingschemes.

• Communication with up to 16 UR relays

in single or redundant rings rather than

simplistic point-to-point configurations

• Connect to standard DS0 channel

banks through standard RS422. G.703

or IEEE C37.94 interfaces or via direct

fiber optic connections

• Built-in continuous loop and channel

monitoring provides real-time

diagnostics of your communication

channels with no external or handheld

tester required

Communications

The M60 provides advanced commun

ications technologies for remote data and

engineering access, making it the easiest

and most flexible motor protection relay

to use and integrate into new and existing

infrastructures. Direct support for fiber

optic Ethernet provides high-bandwidth

communications allowing for low-latency

controls and high-speed file transfers of

relay fault and event record information.

The available three independent Ethernet

ports, redundant Ethernet option and the

embedded managed Ethernet switch

provide the means of creating fault tolerant

communication architectures in an easy,

cost-effective manner without the need for

intermediary communication hardware.

The M60 supports the most popular industry

standard protocols enabling easy, direct

integration into DCS and SCADA systems.

• IEC 61850 with 61850-90-5 support

• DNP 3.0

• Ethernet Global Data (EGD)

• IEC 60870-5-103 and IEC 60870-5-104

• IEEE 1588 for time synchronization

• Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP/IP

• PRP as per IEC 62439-3
