The ePAQ Multifunction Gateway offers a rich set of communications and data processing
functions for a wide range of substation and feeder automation applications. The following is a
brief summary of these features:
Large library of standard and legacy communications protocols and efficient
processing of the acquired data.
Configurable and selectable data routing from client communications tasks to server
communications tasks.
Supports all common protocol functions, including Report By Exception (RBE),
polled or unsolicited reporting, analog deadbands, change of state (COS) memory,
data conversion etc.
Monitoring of digital status inputs and reporting the changes of state to the master
station.
Accumulate pulse inputs from kWh meters.
Detect, store, and report momentary
changes of state for individual status points.
Monitor analog inputs and report their value to the master station each time an analog
input value changes more than the preset deadband.
Execute controls in a highly secure select-before-operate manner with programmable
execute durations on a per point basis.
Analog setpoint controls.
1 millisecond sequence of event (SOE) time tagging of status changes.
Accurate clock synchronization with IRIG-B interface.
Execution of user programmable, stand-alone, and automatic control algorithms.
The ability to emulate both byte and bit oriented protocols.
