Galaxy PulsarEdge841PowerSystemController Overview
Introduction
Lineage Power rectifiers accept alternating current (ac) power and rectify it to produce direct current(dc)powerforpoweringexternalequipment(loads).Convertersacceptthedcoutputfrom rectifiers or other sources and convert it to various regulated output dc levels also needed for poweringexternalequipment(loads).Batteries,generators,andUPSareusedtoprovidebackup power when ac is lost. When batteries are used, they are connected in parallel for additional capacityalongwiththerectifieroutputsthroughappropriatebreakersandcontactordisconnects. DCpowerisdistributedthroughdistributionpanelswithvariousprotectorsandcontactors.These rectifiers, backup systems, and distribution components are all managed by the Galaxy Pulsar Edge841systemcontroller.Thefollowingfiguredepictsagenericrepresentationofthesystem controlleranditsrelationshipinapowersystem.Thecomponentsdepictedandtheirassociated featuresastheyrelatetothe systemcontrollerwillbediscussedinthismanual.

7NE872A RemoteDistribution MonitorandControlModule

Overview
Although the 841 has the ability to directly control and manage a single LVD contactor with additionalhardware.ItcanmanageadditionalLVDsanddistributionsthroughtheuseofremote distribution monitorandcontrol modules liketheNE872.TheNE872A(CC109124780)allows thePulsarEdge841controllertomanagevariousdistributionsthroughserialcommunicationsin rectifier and converter based systems. The system controller will communicate over the GP RS485 bus to the NE872A and monitor associated alarms for open load or battery protectors, measure a single shunt configured as a load or battery shunt, monitor the DC bus voltage for backup LVD functionality, and control and monitor a single load or battery latching LVD contactor. The board allows addressing for up to eight NE872As being installed in a system. Figure81showstheconnectionsandinterfacesfortheNE872A.

A superuser can changeconfigurationsandperformcontroloperations.Anadministratorhasalltheabilities ofa superuser but can also change passwords. All access to Pulsar Edge 841 is via the T1.317 commandset,tobediscussedlater. This section describes how to log into the system via an RS232 local port. The first step to logginginistogettoanENTERPASSWORD:prompt.FromaterminalconnectedtotheRS 232 port, simply press ENTER until you see the login prompt. The number of ENTER keys requiredwilldependonthebaudrateyouaretryingtoconnectat.Thecontrollerwilladjustits baud rate automatically until it recognizes the carriage return character (ASCII 13) sent by pressingENTER. At the ENTER PASSWORD: prompt, type the user or superuser password. The default passwordforeachlevelofsecurityislistedbelow.

T1.317CommandLanguage
ThePulsarEdge841commandlanguageisbasedontheT1.317standard.Thissectiondescribes the commands, objects and attributes used to access measurements, configuration, and control parametersinthe PulsarEdge 841controller.
ObjectsandAttributes
TheT1.317standardorganizessystemparameterscalledattributesintogroupscalledobjects.All commands,objects,attributesandrangesfortheirrespectiveparametersforthePulsarEdge841 controlleraregiveninthefollowingtables. An objectattributepairuniquely identifies a measurement,configuration, orcontrolparameter. For example, the objectattribute pair dc1,vdc identifies the plant voltage while the object attribute pair dc1,adc identifies the plant load current. In each of these examples dc1 identifiestheplantobjectandvdcandadcidentifyDCvoltageandDCcurrent,respectively. Therearethreemaincommandsinvolvedwithplantoperationsinthesystemcontrollercommand set. The command sta is used to get the status of the plant, the command cha is used to changeaplantparameter,andthecommandopeisusedtoinitiateaplantfunction.Apersonat the user level can only perform the sta operations. A person at the superuser and administratorlevelcanalsoperformthe"cha"and"ope"operations. InstructionsintheT1.317commandsettakethefollowingform: commandobject,attribute[=parameter]. Certain commands do not require a value for parameter, while others do. Note that text parametersaretobeenclosedinquotationmarkswhilenumericparametersarenottobeenclosed inquotationmarks.

FloatMode
Floatmodeisthedefaultoperationmodeofthepowersystem.Thesystemvoltage,whileinfloat mode, is determined by the configuration parameter Rectifier Float Set point (fsp) and may be adjusted by the Battery Thermal Compensation circuit, if active. No individual adjustment of plantrectifiersisnecessaryandloadsharingamongplantrectifiersisautomaticinallplantmodes andwilltakeeffectwithinseveralsecondsofanewrectifierbeingaddedtothesystem. TheRectifierFloatSetpointshouldbesetperthebatterymanufacturer'srecommendations.Note thattheactual RectifierFloatSetpointmeasuredontheplantmaydifferfromthevaluesetbythe userifbattery thermalcompensation (STC) isenabled.

ThePulsarEdge 841hasaflexiblebatteryThermalCompensationfeaturewhichprovidesvoltage compensation from that level established by the Plant Float SetPoint (fsp) or Boost SetPoint (bsp),dependentonthehighesttemperaturemonitoredbytheQS873AVTProbesattachedtothe systembatteries.ThermalCompensationcanlowerorraisethesystembusvoltagefromtheFloat Set Point voltage. For monitored battery temperatures above an ideal battery temperature the controllercanlowerthesystemvoltageperprogrammedlinearcurve.Loweringtheplantvoltage helps keep the batteries at their optimum state of charge while protecting them from thermal runaway. For monitored battery temperatures lower than the ideal battery temperature the controllercanraisethesystemvoltageperprogrammedlinearcurve.Raisingthesystemvoltage helps keep the batteries at their optimum state of charge. Increasing the system voltage with decreasesinbatterytemperaturealsocausesmorecurrenttoflowintothebatterieswhichresults inelectrolysis ofthewaterinthebatteries. Thisreactionis exothermicandalsoservestokeep batteries warm. Thermal Compensation is generally used in systems utilizing sealed or valve regulated maintenance free batteries.

High Temperature Alarm: The High Battery Thermal Alarm Threshold (thr) is the monitored battery temperature at which above this threshold results in a High Battery Thermal alarm. This alarm threshold can be set from 30C to 85C and its severity is configurable. The alarm retires when the temperature drops to 10C below the set threshold.Thefactorydefaultsettingis55CwithPowerMinorseverity.

SNMPOverview
In addition to supporting the basic protocols (Telnet, HTTP, FTP, and SMTP) on TCP/IP, the GalaxyPulsarEdge841supportsconveyingsystemalarmandcontrolinformationtoaNetwork OperationCenter(NOC)usingtheSimpleNetworkManagementProtocol(SNMP).SNMPisthe most popular protocol for managing diverse networks. Using SNMP to access management information data and retrieve alarm information can allow company personnel to more easily managesystemperformanceandremotelyfindandsolvesystemproblems.AGalaxy PulsarEdge serves as an SNMP Agent. A SNMP Host system is used to communicate to a multitude of SNMPAgents.AnumberofSNMPHostpackagesareavailablesuchasHPOpenView,Castle Rock Computing SNMPc, IBM NetView, Lucent OneVision, and Sun Micros NetManager. LineagePoweralsoprovidesaSNMPHostfocusedontheneedsofthepowerengineerwithits GalaxyManagerproduct.
SimpleNetworkManagementProtocolisanapplicationlayerprotocoldesignedtofacilitatethe exchangeofmanagementinformationbetweennetworkdevices.Therehavebeenseveralreleases of SNMP in its history and the Pulsar Edge implements an SNMPv2C Agent. SNMPv2C is backwardscompatiblewithSNMPv1. AkeypartoftheSNMPprotocolisthedetailedManagementInformation Base (MIB) that describes all Agent variables that can be accessed. For the Pulsar Edge, this includes all the objects controlled or monitored in the system such as: rectifiers, converters, distribution monitoring cards, alarms, etc. Essentially, all elements described in the T1.317 protocol(seeAppendixB)areavailableinSNMP.TheMIBwillbeneededbyanySNMPHost thatwishestocommunicatewiththePulsarEdgeandcanberetrievedattheDesignToolsand Downloadlinklocatedat http://www.lineagepower.com.

SNMPOperations
InteractionsbetweentheSNMPHostandtheSNMPAgentcanbeanyoffourdifferenttypesof commands: Reads, Writes, Traversal operations, and Traps. SNMP utilizes six operations to respondtothevariousSNMPHosts:Get,GetNext,GetBulk,Set,Trap,andInform.ThePulsar Edge implementstheGet,GetNext,Set,andTrapoperations. GetAllowstheSNMPHosttoretrieveavaluefromtheSNMPAgent. GetNextAllowstheSNMPHosttoretrievethenextvalueinsequencefromatableorlistof variablesintheSNMPAgent. SetAllowstheSNMPHosttosetavaluewithintheSNMPAgent.
Trap UsedbytheSNMPAgent(thepowersystemcontroller)toasynchronously informthe

SNMPHostofaneventsuchasanalarmnotification.Unliketheotheroperations,thetrapdoes not require a response from the host. The SNMP Agent must be configured with appropriate addressesoftheSNMPHost.
SNMPConfiguration
SNMP functionality is always available. No enabling or disabling of the feature is required. Appropriate trap destinations and assignments of specific alarms must be configured for SNMP to properly send out Traps. Users can configure these SNMP parameters from the browser interface. They may also be configured from a Telnet commandlineinterface. ConfigurationoftheIPaddressesforTrapdestinationsisperformedundertheNetwork link under the main configuration Settings tab. The Pulsar Edge supports up to four differentdestinations forSNMP messages.Each destination(1through4)isconfigured withanIPaddress. Thesamplescreenforthisconfigurationfollows.

Individual alarms or events are assigned as Traps to one of the four specific SNMP destinations. Assignment of the alarm and events is performed under the Alarm NotificationlinkunderthemainconfigurationSettingstab.Thesamplescreenforthis configurationfollows.
CommunityStrings
