with a CPLD, so it has high response speed, wide transmission band and can producing high-density fitting
sine wave with 500 points per cycle for the fundamental wave. The output waveform is smooth, and no
harmonic component exists. Since there are a great number of output points and accurate filtering circuit is
used, the distortion of the waveform is very small. In a harmonic output process, a high density of 55 points
per cycle can be achieved for even the ninth harmonic at 450Hz. Meanwhile, the software has very
powerful man-machine conversation and on-line assistance functions, and can control any test parameter.
2. Twelve-path synchronous D/A output in a single machine
A 16-digit high-accuracy DAC chip is used to ensure high fitting waveform accuracy and good linearity.

III. Product Structure
Fig. 2.3.1 Structure and connection way of host machine
1. High-speed and high-performance embedded microcomputer system

The main control machine of the device is a high-speed and high-performance microcomputer system, and
the control software adopts hybrid programming of C++ and assembly so as to produce various phases of
high-accuracy waveforms. Since the device has an integral structure and different parts are combined firmly,
as many as 500 points per cycle are output and the waveforms at least can be output by a frequency of
higher than 1050Hz, which are impracticable for the traditional way of directly controlling the test device
via a communication port by using a computer. Since the point number is high and the waveform distortion
is low, the requirement on the low-pass filter is very low. Therefore, excellent transient behavior,
phase-frequency characteristic and amplitude-frequency characteristic are achieved, and accurate phase
shift and harmonic superposition are easy to realize.
2. 16-digit DAC
A 16-digit high-accuracy DAC chip is adopted to ensure high fitting waveform accuracy and good linearity.
Tiny distortion can be ensured even during small signal output.
3. Low-pass filter
Since DAC has high resolution and a large number of waveform points and step waves output by DAC
conversion have high waveform quality, only a simple low-pass filter is needed to filter high-frequency
components in a later stage so as to restore high-quality and high-stability sine waves. Therefore, the
problems of amplitude value, phase drift, etc. are overcome, and the trueness of harmonic test and
high-grade simulation transient waveform are ensured.
4. High-accuracy power amplification module

Output ends of current and voltage amplifiers are not provided with voltage booster or current booster, but
direct output mode is adopted, so current and voltage sources can directly output DC waveform to
waveforms including various frequency components, such as square waves, combined waveforms
superposed by harmonics and fault transient waveforms. Meanwhile, current and voltage characteristics
during short circuit failure of the protective device can be simulated truly.
Power amplifying circuit adopts the unique ultra-linear amplifying technique, uses an imported high-power
apparatus as the output stage and combines the elaborately and rationally designed radiating structure so as
to achieve enough power redundancy and heat capacity. Intelligent protection can judge overvoltage,
overcurrent, overload, overheat and short circuit protection at the same time. When overcurrent occurs in a
current circuit and overload or short circuit occurs in a voltage circuit, the entire power amplifying circuit is
switched off automatically and sound alarm signal is emitted to prompt. In order to avoid overheat of the
power amplifying circuit after long-term running under heavy current, software time limit under heavy
current is set for the device. The device can run for a long time during output under 10A. When the current
reaches 10A or above, the software time limit is started. After reaching the time limit, the software
automatically stops power output and gives alarm instruction. The higher the output current is, the shorter
the time limit is, so safe running of the power amplifier is ensured.
5. Binary input and output

The device is provided with eight binary input circuits compatible with the idle contact and the 0-250Vdc
electric potential contact. The acting time and holding time of each phase of switch contact can be
measured conveniently.
There are four binary outputs, which are relay idle binary outputs. The output capacity is DC: 250V/0.5A.
The binary output is fully isolated from parts of voltages, current, input, etc. The acting processes of the
four paths of outputs are slightly different from each other in each test module. For details, please refer to
software operation instruction of each module.
6. Big-screen LCD and panel key operation

The device uses 8" big-screen high-resolution graphic liquid crystal display screen with dot matrix of
640×480. The operation interface and the test result are displayed fully in Chinese in an intuitive and clear
way. All operation processes are performed by 23 keys on the panel, and all interfaces are displayed in
Chinese and set on the display screen. The 23 keys are arrayed aesthetically on the panel and are
human-friendly; meanwhile, the keys are simple and convenient to operate and easy to grasp basically
without computer knowledge. The panel structure is shown in Fig. 2.3.2.

Chapter Three Basic Operation
(Note: Super series of products basically have the same operation mode, and the operation
manual takes Super-630 for example).
I. Circuit connection
Connection modes of analog quantity and binary output terminals are shown in the following Fig.:
Fig. 3.1.1 Connection Mode of Each Terminal
Note: if the tested device is on the running site, on-site current transformer (CT) and potential
transformer (PT) loops shall be disconnected from the protective device so as not to affect correct test of
the device by strong disturbance. Furthermore, please connect all external connecting wires before
switching on the power amplifier.
Current output terminal: correspondingly connect IA, IB, IC, Ix, Iy, Iz and In with the tested device
one by one.
Voltage output terminal: correspondingly connect UA, UB, UC, Ux, Uy, Uz and Un with the tested
device one by one.
Fig. 3.1.2 Connection Mode of Interphase Output Terminal
Description: Please connect any end of current output to the ground (shown in Fig. 3.1.2) while testing
interphase output of the current relay so as to obtain the highest accuracy; and grounding is not required
when IA, IB, IC and IN are all connected during test of microcomputer protection.
Binary input terminal: binary input signal shares a common terminal. A, B, C and R or a, b, c and r
are connected to the tested device respectively, and if the tested device is not a relay, all the contacts shall be
connected for the software of the device decides how to calculate the breakdown quantity of the next step
according to the acting situation of the contact point. Therefore, all protected signals of A, B, C and R shall
be connected to the device while testing the protective device so as to ensure correct test.
The input part is isolated from working power supply, power amplifying power supply, etc. of the host
machine, so the common terminal of the input part is not communicated with the common terminals UN and
IN of current and voltages parts. Switching value potential input is directed, so the common terminal shall
be connected with positive potential terminal while the input end shall be connected with negative potential
terminal. Keep the common terminal potential higher than the input terminal shown in Fig. 3.1.3.
Fig. 3.1.3 Connection Mode of Contact
The system judges whether the contact is normally open or normally closed by overturn of contact
signal, and correct detection is unavailable if the contact point is connected reversely. The contact point is
normally closed when the test device judges the existence of potential under normal state. The contact point
is closed during protection action, and the idle contact is closed. Therefore, overrun of the contact point
cannot be judged.
Binary output terminal: four terminals ①、②、③and ④ are connected to external contact needing
fault startup respectively. When the device starts testing and outputs breakdown quantity, the contact is
closed; on the contrary, the contact is disconnected when the breakdown quantity is eliminated.
Auxiliary DC output terminal: the device is provided with two sets of auxiliary DC voltage sources,
one of which is 110V, and the other is 220V and they can work at the same time;
Warning: Do not connect DC output with other output terminals.
Lead-in of external power adopts conventional 220VAC/50Hz for power supply. Please refer to Fig.
2.3.4.
Note: in order to ensure reliable grounding of device housing, lead-in wire of external power
shall be three-core power cord.
Attentions:
1) Lead-in of external AC/DC power to jacks of voltage
outputs (UA, UB, UC, UX, UY and UZ) or current
outputs (IA, IB, IC, IX, IY and IZ) of front panel for the
device is absolutely prohibited!
2) The device shall be grounded reliably! (Ground terminal
is positioned on right upper side of the cabinet)
3) Please do not plug and pull analog quantity connecting
wire of the device during test!

boundary point is not on the scanning line or more than two boundary points may exist; and search of
the boundary point is ended;
☆ If the start point and the end point have different acting situations, it is indicated that the
