The data transfer rate of SPA is 9600 bps, but it can also be set to 19 200 bps or 38 400 bps. As a
slave the device sends data on demand or by sequenced polling. The available data can be
measurements, circuit breaker states, function starts, function trips, etc. The full SPA signal map can
be found in AQtivate (

To access SPA map and event list, an .aqs configuration file should be downloaded from the
relay.
6.2 Analog fault registers
At
Communication
→
General I/O
→
Analog fault registers the user can set up to twelve (12) channels
to record the measured value when a protection function starts or trips. These values can be read in
two ways: locally from this same menu, or through a communication protocol if one is in use.
The following table presents the setting parameters available for the 12 channels.

The user can choose between non-directional overcurrent,
directional overcurrent, non-directional earth fault, directional
earth fault, and fault locator functions.

6.3 Real-time measurements to communication
With the
Real-time signals to communication menu the user can report to SCADA measurements that
are not normally available in the communication protocols mapping. Up to eight (8) magnitudes can be
selected. The recorded value can be either a per-unit value or a primary value (set by the user).
Measurable values
Function block uses analog current and voltage measurement values. The relay uses these values as
the basis when it calculates the primary and secondary values of currents, voltages, powers,
impedances and other values.
