7SR45 Argus Relay consists of the following Human machine interface (HMI):
1. LCD
2. Keypads
3. LED
4. Trip flag indicator
5. USB
6. Battery Cover
By using the LCD, the user can view or edit a configuration parameter. The LCD allows the user to view the
following:
• Real time status of relay such as BI and BO
• Battery profile
• Auxiliary power status
• Primary and secondary current values of each phase and earth
• General alarms
• Thermal level of the equipment
LCD displays the stored fault information to the user. When any fault condition occurs, the relay displays the latest
fault information on LCD.
General Alarms are user defined text messages displayed on the LCD when mapped to binary inputs. Up to four
general alarms can be programmed, each triggered from one or more input. Each general alarm will also generate
an event.
The backlight TURNS ON automatically if the 7SR45 Argus Relay is powered on with phase CT input and the
current is more than 0.4xIn (single phase) or 0.14xIn (three phase). If the 7SR45 Argus Relay is energized with
current less than the defined limits, the backlight does not TURN ON.
If the 7SR45 Argus Relay is powered on by inserting a USB cable, the backlight TURNS ON automatically.
The backlight can be turned off manually by pressing the backlight key. The backlight TURNS OFF automatically
to save energy if the user does not perform any activity in the HMI for more than 30 seconds.
In the phase CT power mode, the 7SR45 Argus Relay periodically monitors that sufficient current is available to
TURN ON the backlight.
In the USB or battery power mode, if the backlight is already TURNED ON and if the phase CT input is provided,
the backlight TURNS OFF due to the switching of power mode from USB or Battery to CT power. The backlight can
be TURNED ON again if sufficient current is available.
2.6.2 Keypad
The 7SR45 Argus Relay keypad consists of 5 standard keys for navigation and for editing the values. The
standard keys are used to navigate the menu structure and configure the relay functions.
The 2 additional keys are available for LCD backlight and battery mode.

49 Overload Setting (Iθ) is expressed as a multiple of the relay nominal current and is equivalent to the factor kxIB
as defined in the IEC 60255-149 thermal operating characteristics. It is the value of current above which 100% of
thermal capacity will be reached after a period and it is therefore normally set slightly above the full load current of
the protected device.
The thermal state may be reset from the fascia or externally via a binary input or through remote.
Gn 49 Capacity Alarm
An alarm can be given if the thermal state exceeds a specified percentage of the protected equipment’s thermal
capacity setting. This can be used to warn the operator that a relay thermal trip will occur if this level of protected
equipment current continues.

Self Reset/Hand Reset
In the default operating mode, binary outputs are self reset. If required, the outputs can be programmed to operate
as ‘hand reset’. However, the hand reset functionality is applicable for protection trip signals, IRF signal, and BI
signals only.
All the supervisory signals such as low battery, general pick up, and protection healthy are always of self reset type.
By default, the Binary Output 1 is mapped to IRF function and programmed as 'hand reset". In the self reset
condition, binary output resets if the input current drops below the sensitivity levels.
NOTE:
In the absence of auxiliary voltage, the binary output 3 and binary output 4 will not be functional and remain in
the non-operated condition.

NOTE:
# For 7SR450[1/3]-xGA10-1AA0 variant, these parameters are not available.
NOTE:
If a binary output is assigned to IRF, do not use the same binary output for any other functions.
NOTE:
Reclose Inhibit parameter is only available in dual powered variants. It is recommended to configure this
parameter with permanent auxiliary power.
In the presence of auxiliary power supply/phase current, pulse output can be operated by mapping to a binary input.
When the assigned binary input is triggered, the pulse output operates, local flag operates, and Trip LED flashes.
Pulse output is provided till the auxiliary power supply/phase current is available.
NOTE:
The time between the two pulses depends on the impedance of the trip coil and magnitude of the current (if the
relay is powered through phase currents).
When there is NO LOAD connected at the output of Pulse Output (NO TRIP coil is connected), the PULSE ON
duration may vary from 50 ms to 70 ms.
Pulse output cannot be triggered through Rear/Front communication protocols, it is recommended to use BIs for
triggering the pulse output for remote trip applications.
NOTE:
The time between the two pulses depends on the impedance of the flag indicator and on the current level (if the
relay is powered by auxiliary power/phase current).
3.18.2 CT Input
In the absence of auxiliary voltage, all the protection and measurement algorithms are active when the 7SR45
Argus Relay is powered through phase CTs, however the RS485 communication stops working.
3.18.2.1 Sensitivity
In the absence of auxiliary voltage, the sensitivity of the relay is the minimum phase current required for the relay
to energize, detect a fault, and trip as per the configuration.
The sensitivity of 7SR45 Argus Relay is 0.20xIn (minimum phase current) in single phase or 0.10xIn (minimum
phase current) in three phase. This minimum phase current is necessary for the healthy functioning of the relay.
The PROTECTION HEALTHY and TRIP READY LEDs indicates the healthiness of the relay.
The following graphs show the sensitivity of the relay and the corresponding operating time for the different start
up currents.
Figure 3-16 Sensitivity for Single Phase Fault with Binary Outputs
NOTE:
The multi-phase current will improve the sensitivity.
NOTE:
Removal/drainage of both main battery and RTC battery will delay sensitivity of the product.
Presence/non-drainage of main battery and removal/drainage of RTC battery will not impact the sensitivity of the
product.
3.18.2.2 Time Delayed Overcurrent Protection during Start up (51, 51G, 51N)
The operating time of the protection functions (51, 51G, 51N) are optimized at the lower current settings when the
relay is energized with the short-circuit current or fault current.
The optimization of the operating time is done only in the start up condition for the first 25 AC cycles if the fault
current persists.
The optimization is done as per the sensitivity characteristics of the binary output. However, the operating time of
the pulse output also improves if the calculated operating time is less than the pulse output sensitivity
characteristics.
NOTE:
The following conditions must be considered for the optimization algorithm:
1. If the calculated operating time is less than the boot up time as shown in the sensitivity graph (Figure 3-15,
Figure 3-16), then the optimization is not effective.
2. If the battery is low, the calculated boot up time is increased, the optimization is not effective.
3. When the device is started with the load current and the fault current appears within 25 AC cycles, then the
operating time will be less than the calculated time.
5. The optimization of the operating time is not effective if the fault current is not stable during the boot up time.
3.18.4 Battery
In the battery mode, the relay can be energized by pressing the BAT ON/OFF key or if any binary input status is
changed.
The battery is used to operate 7SR45 Argus Relay only when other power sources are not available.
In the battery mode, all the settings can be edited even if the protection functions are inactive. The binary inputs
and binary outputs are operational in the battery mode. In the battery mode, the local flag indicator reset is only
possible. The pulse output and remote flag output cannot be operated with battery.
In the battery mode, if no keys are pressed for 60 s, the relay goes to sleep mode automatically.
By default, in the battery mode, the backlight is OFF and it can be TURNED ON by pressing the backlight key.

The battery profile parameters data can be cleared with the DATA STORAGE > Clr Battery Data setting in HMI.
NOTE:
When replacing the new battery, the battery profile parameters data must be cleared.
NOTE:
During the sleep mode, the 7SR45 Argus Relay has the limited functionality.
The low battery can be mapped to a binary output and can be used for remote signalling.
NOTE:
It is recommended to replace the battery when the low battery indication is displayed.
Some of the relay operations such as turning on the backlight and resetting local flag, binary outputs and LEDs in
the low battery mode will lead to insufficient operating voltage. The LCD displays "INSUFFICIENT ENERGY"
message and the relay enters sleep mode.
NOTE:
In case Card Error and MLFB Error, the relay will not be functional and the relay should be sent to the factory.
NOTE:
If a binary output is assigned to IRF, it is recommended not to use the same binary output for any other protection
function configuration.
The Thermal level of the device can be cleared using the DATA STORAGE > Reset Thermal Level setting in HMI
or from Reydisp.

3.26 Battery
7SR45 Argus Relay consists of CR123 A, 3 V 1400 mAh Li-Mn non rechargeable battery. The battery is used to
energize the device when auxiliary voltage/phase current/USB is not available. The user can perform actions such
as viewing the fault records, setting change, and resetting the flags with battery power.
Do not disconnect the USB when the firmware update is in progress. If the firmware update is
! terminated intermittently, it may corrupt the existing firmware in the relay and the relay may stop
working.

Using the keys on the relay fascia scroll down the settings menus into the ‘communications’ menu and if
necessary change the settings for the communication port you are using on the relay. Reydisp software uses
IEC60870-5-103 protocol to communicate.
When connecting the relay to a PC using the front USB port, the Reydisp setting software will automatically detect
the relay without making any setting changes in the relay first as long as the USB is selected to IEC60870-5-103.
The ‘Connection Manager’ window will display all available communication ports. With the preferred port highlighted
select the ‘Properties’ option and ensure the baud rate and parity match that selected in the relay settings. Select
‘Connect’ to initiate the relay-PC connection.
The relay settings can now be configured using the Reydisp software. Please refer to the Reydisp Evolution Manual
for further guidance.

4.1 Introduction
This section describes the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol implementation in the relays. This protocol is used for the
communication with Reydisp software and can also be used for communication with a suitable control system.
The control system or local PC acts as the master in the system with the relay operating as a slave responding to
the master's commands. The implementation provides event information, time synchronising, commands and
measurands and also supports the transfer of disturbance records.
This protocol can be set to use any or all of the relays hardware interfaces (USB, RS485) where fitted and is the
standard protocol used by the USB port. The relay can communicate simultaneously on all ports regardless of
protocol used.
The Station Address of the port being used must be set to a suitable address within the range 0 - 254 to enable
communication. This can be set by the Communications Menu: -xxxxx Stn Addr setting.

5.1 INTRODUCTION
This section describes the MODBUS-RTU protocol implementation in the relays. This protocol is used for
communication with a suitable control system.
This protocol can be set to use any or all of the relays hardware interfaces (USB, RS485) where fitted. The relay
can communicate simultaneously on all ports regardless of protocol used.
The Station Address of the port being used must be set to a suitable address within the range 1 - 247 to enable
communication. This can be set by the Communications Menu: xxxxx Stn Addr setting.
Definitions with shaded area are not available on all relay models.
5.2.1 FLOAT_IEEE_754
The float data type conforms to the IEEE 754 floating point definition. This specifies that 32 bits of data will be
formatted as a sign bit in the most significant bit (MSB) followed by an 8 bit exponent then a 23 bit mantissa,
down to the least significant bit (LSB).
MSB LSB
Sign Exponent Mantissa
5.2.2 FP_32BITS_3DP
The FP_32BITS_3DP is a 32 bit integer fixed point value, containing 3 decimal places of information. It is used to
send a real value to 3 decimal places as an integer. For example, if the value in a device is 123.456 it will be sent
as 123456. As it is an integer, negative numbers are sent as 2's complement.
Address Value
30001 1
30002 E240
On reception these two registers should be interpreted in the correct order as a 32 bit integer.
5.2.3 UINT32
The UINT32 is a signed 32 bit integer. As it is an integer, negative numbers are sent as 2's complement.
Address Value
30001 FFFE
30002 1DC0
On reception these two registers should be interpreted in the correct order as a 32 bit integer.
5.2.4 UINT16
The UINT16 is a signed 16 bit integer. As it is an integer, negative numbers are sent as 2's complement.
Address Value
30001 162E
Truncation
Calculations are performed as 32 bit. The 16 bit value is the lowest 16 bits of the 32 bit value. Therefore,
when values overflow the returned value is the lowest 16 bits of the calculated value. For Example, if the
value is 85400 = 14D98h, the value returned would be the lowest 16 bits = 4D98h which equals 19864.
5.2.5 EVENT
MODBUS does not define a method for extracting events; therefore a private method has been defined based on
that defined by IEC60870-5-103.
The EVENT register contains the earliest event record available. The event record is 8 registers (16bytes) of
information, whose format is described below. When this record has been read it will be replaced by the next
available record. Event records must be read completely; therefore the quantity value must be set to 8 before
reading. Failing to do this will result in an exception code 2. If no event record is present the exception code 2 will
be returned. The EVENT register should be polled regularly by the master for events.
The EVENTCOUNT register can be checked periodically to determine how many events are stored.
The format of the event record is defined by the zero byte. It signifies the type of record which is used to decode
the event information. The zero byte can be one of the following.
Format
The format of the event record is defined by the zero byte. It signifies the type of record which is used to

5.2.6 EVENTCOUNT
The EVENTCOUNT register contains the current number of events in the relay's event buffer.
On reception this register should be interpreted as a 16 bit integer.
5.2.7 TIME_METER
The TIME_METER register contains the device's time. The time must be read or written in one step; therefore the
quantity should be 4 registers. Failing to do this will result in an exception code 2. The time format is 8 bytes as
follows.
Key Description

Content ms L ms H Mi Ho Da Mo Ye L Ye H
5.2.8.1 BITSTRING
A Bit-String (or Bit-Array) is a method of compactly storing a number of bits of data. In this instance we store up to
16 bit values, for example the states of binary inputs, in a single 16 bit register. The first bit value is stored in the
Least Significant Bit (LSB) of the register. The 16th value would be in the Most Significant Bit (MSB). Bit values
can only be zero or one. Any unused bits will be set to zero.
In this MODBUS implementation the 16 bit value is stored in a 16 bit register in Big-Endian format. As an
example, assume bits 1, 3, 9 and 12 are set. The binary representation of this would be 00001001000001012
giving a hex representation of 0905h. Assume this is stored in the register 30001, it would look as follows:

In the RTU mode, message frames are separated by a silent interval of at least 3.5 character times. This time
interval is also called t3.5. This t3.5 delay needs to be provided by the Modbus RTU master for response to

Where,
ALF – Accuracy Limiting Factor
Isr – Rated Secondary current of CT (A)
Rct – CT Winding resistance (Ω)
Rbn – Rated Burden of CT (Ω)
If the secondary limiting excitation voltage (EALF) calculated exceeds the knee point voltage of the connected CT,
the CT may get saturated.
To select a proper CT, the accuracy limit factor (ALF) at a given burden needs to be considered. The ALF needs
to be checked for entire range of currents the relay is expected to operate. For proper operation of the CT, the
following condition needs to be fulfilled.
ALF = Is *(R ct + R b )
Isr *(Rct + Rbn)
NOTE:
When all the three phases are available, the burden on each CT reduces.

Case 1:
In the absence/loss of auxiliary power, the minimum phase current required for the relay operation in single phase
= 0.2 In (Is = 0.2A for rated current of 1 A)
Rb = 28.5 at 0.2 A (Refer to Impedance graphs for current >1A (Nominal current, In = 1A)
ALF ≥ 1.933
Case 2:
Fault current = 20 A
ALF ≥ 20 * (0.5 + 0.49)
1 * (0.5 + 2.5)
Rb = 0.49 at 20 A (Refer to Impedance graphs for current >1A (Nominal current, In=1A)
ALF ≥ 6.6
The calculation shown above is an example. To select an appropriate CT, similar calculation needs to be done
with the actual parameters.
Recommended CTs:
Considering the CTs are connected to 7SR45 Argus Relay only and the distance between CTs and 7SR45 Argus
Relay (typically 3 m) is short, the following are the recommended CTs to be used:
NOTE:
For safe operation of the 7SR45 Argus Relay, the maximum power delivered to the relay is 1000 VA for 1 s.
Moreover, it is not recommended to overload the relay above 1000 VA for multiple times.

To increase sensitivity, dedicated Earth fault elements are used. There should be little or no current flowing to earth
in a healthy system so such relays can be given far lower pick-up levels than relays which detect excess current (
> load current) in each phase conductor. Such dedicated earth fault relays are important where the fault path to
earth is a high-resistance one (such as in highly arid areas) or where the system uses high values of earthing
resistor / reactance and the fault current detected in the phase conductors will be limited.

Instantaneous elements can be used in current graded schemes where there is a significant difference between the
fault current levels at different relay point. The Instantaneous element is set to pick up at a current level above the
maximum Fault Current level at the next downstream relay location, and below its own minimum fault current level.
The protection is set to operate instantaneously and is often termed ‘Highset Overcurrent’. A typical application is
the protection of transformer HV connections – the impedance of the transformer ensuring that the LV side has a
much lower level of fault current.
The 50-n elements have a very low transient overreach i.e. their accuracy is not appreciably affected by the initial
dc offset transient associated with fault inception.
The element uses maximum RMS value of phase currents to estimate the real-time Thermal level (θ) of cables or
transformers. The Thermal level is based on both past and present current levels, Thermal level θ = 100% for
maximum thermal withstand of equipment or the Trip threshold.
In case of power supply failure, depending on the selection of the setting the thermal level stored in the non-
volatile memory will either be the initial level or the previous level. In the latter case, the thermal replica uses the
stored value for calculation and matches it to the operating conditions.
