4 Description
4.1 An overview of the main components of the Remsdaq CallistoNX is shown Figure 1.

Figure 1 – CallistoNX RTU Cabinet Layout

4.2 For use with RMUs, the CallistoNX has remote control and monitoring facilities for up
to four switches or circuit-breakers (or a mixture of both). Each switch/circuit breaker
to be controlled and / or monitored needs an umbilical cable connection between the
equipment and the CallistoNX.

4.3 For use with multi panel switchgear, the Type E RTU has control facilities for up to
four switches or circuit-breakers and monitoring (open/close) of up to eight switches
or circuit-breakers (including the four controlled). To monitor six or more switches or
circuit-breakers, an additional DI module must be installed in the RTU.

4.4 Local control and monitoring is provided using the touch screen HMI.

4.5 The CallistoNX is mains powered with a battery back-up and is self-monitoring.

4.6 The CallistoNX uses the DNP3 IP protocol to provide communication with PowerOn
network management system for remote control and monitoring. Any appropriate IP
compliant comms system can be used, such as:

 O2 or Vodafone GPRS/3G/4G networks via the dedicated UK Power Networks

APNs.
 Rented ADSL circuits.
 UKPN SHDSL circuits.
 UKPN Geostationary Satellite.
 Fibre.

4.7 The IP comms networks will also provide remote configuration and monitoring
capability from UKPN offices.

4.8 The CallistoNX is capable of providing two internal fault passage indicators (FPI) on
the FPM module, driven via the 3 phase RMU FPI CT inputs (where available). These
are directly wired to RTU switch 1 and RTU switch 2.

4.9 Where RMU CT inputs cannot be provided to the RTU (old LPN spec RMUs for
instance), or where additional FPIs are required, these can be facilitated using
external FPI units connected to the RTU via the RMU marshalling box.

5 Comms Device Installation

5.1 Ensure the Comms Device mounting DIN rail is installed in the appropriate position
for the Comms Device to be installed as shown in Figure 4. Note, the DIN rail may
need to be repositioned depending on the Comms Device being fitted.

Figure 4 – Comms Device DIN Rail Installation

5.2 Mount the Comms Device on the DIN rail as shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5 – Comms Device Installed

5.3 Connect the Comms Device power lead to the Comms Device and connector TB15,
terminals 1 and 2 of the RTU.

5.4 If using GPRS/3G/4G Comms: Connect the ethernet patch lead to Port A of the
System Bus module and to the comms device Ethernet port.

5.5 If a risk assessment of the location allows, the aerial should be mounted outdoors,
however if not the aerial should be mounted as high as possible within the substation.

5.6 If the substation is underground, every effort should be made to place the aerial at
street level, or as close as reasonably practicable.

5.7 If using GPRS/3G/4G Comms: The Aerial feeder should be passed through one of
the stuffing glands already installed on the RTU. The aerial feeder cable may need
to be packed out (with insulating tape or something suitable) to ensure the stuffing
gland can be tightened to form a good seal around the feeder cable.

6 CallistoNX Configuration
6.1 Please note, the process and screenshots may vary slightly from the actual screens
shown during configuration, but the principles and process is the same. This is
because new functions and features may be added to the RTU between document
updates.

6.2 The Callisto NX RTU is pre-configured for the ‘hardwired’ I/O points and only requires
configuration for the additional options that may be installed on a site by site basis,
and the site specific RTU address.

6.3 The Callisto NX Configuration Tool software is used to configure the RTU, set up
the DNP3 address and IP addresses, etc, and to check the status of the RTU.

6.4 Ensure the Laptop is to set to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP Client).

6.5 Connect a laptop PC to RJ 45 Config Port on the touch screen swing frame using a
suitable Ethernet Patch cable. If the Laptop supports auto-crossover a standard
Ethernet Patch Cable may be used to connect a laptop PC to the CallistoNX for
configuration, if not a crossover Ethernet cable is required. DO NOT connect to the
RJ 45 port on the touch screen itself.

6.6 Open the Callisto NX Configuration Tool on the laptop.

6.7 The box at the top of the Config Tool page displays the Commissioning Tool, Base
Config and Firmware version numbers, make sure the Config and Firmware are the
latest versions as available on Alfresco. If any of these are older versions, please
refer to Appendix A to upgrade them. Please note, the same Firmware/Software
versions are used for both RMUs and multi panel switchgear, however, different
configs are used.

6.8 The Config Tool will search for any connected RTU and display the details on the
screen. If more than one RTU is displayed, ensure you select the correct one (The
RTU name should match the Power-On name).

6.9 Select the desired RTU, type the following username and password into the relevant
boxes. Username ukpn, password <deliberately not shown in this document>
and select Connect.

Note: do not click the Switch to Remote Access Logon button.
