MiCOM P632
Selection of the Switchgear Unit to be Controlled and Generating a Switching Request

The switchgear unit to be controlled is selected and the switching command is sent to this selected switchgear unit. This can be carried out via the local control panel using the selection key and pressing the “Open” or “Close” key to generate the switching request.

Hint

Note that the front panel HMI on the P632 does not feature specific keys for switching functions. If at this point mention of a “selection key” is made, then this would be a function key to which a specific function has been assigned – in this example MAIN: Device selection key. See Chapter “Configurable Function Keys”, particularly Chapter “Function Keys F1 to Fx as Control Keys”.

For control via binary inputs, the appropriate control inputs need to be configured for switchgear units selected to be controlled. For control via the communication interface, the control commands “Open” or “Close” will also address the switchgear unit to be controlled.
