Configuration of a GDP
Configuring a
GDP’s
Software
A D25 fitted with a GDP must be equipped with the DNP 3.0 DPA
application software and will use the COM1 (D25 MAINT port) to
communicate with the GDP. Using SGConfig, some or all of the D25’s
database points are mapped into this communication software.
Inside the GDP, these points are then mapped into the GDP graphic objects.
For detailed information about configuring the DNP 3.0 DPA, refer to the
B021-0CG Configuration Guide.
For detailed information about setting up and configuring the GDP, refer to
the “IGPM 16200 Operation and Configuration Manual” (document number
16200-MOC-09-08-E).
To access the GDP manual:
1. Go to GE Grid Solutions Technical Support at:
http://www.gegridsolutions.com/TDSASSupport
2. Log in to the Technical Support Library.
3. Navigate to Substation Automation Products > D25 > GDP –
Monochrome > FW 603 Upgrade > Substation Bay Config Tool Ver
5.01.
4. Download and extract the file; the manual is located in the Manual
folder.
Please contact GE Grid Solutions to learn more about the configuration tools
and settings available for the GDP.
GDP Hardware
Connections
When installed, the PSA module (part # 521-0131) is mounted over the right-
hand side of the D25’s DAC board, where it plugs onto the three sets of
digital input wetting jumpers (see Low-Voltage Digital Input Card Wetting on
p. 120 for more detail on these jumpers). The PSA taps into the main D25
power supply’s field output through these jumpers.
A flat ribbon cable (Part # 976-0126) connects from the PSA card to the
Indicator Switch card (Part # 540-0412) mounted on the inside the front door
of the D25 enclosure. This cable is the data connection to the GDP.
Another cable (Part # 976-0127) links the PSA card to the GDP. This cable is
both the DC power connections from the PSA to the GDP, as well as the RS-
485 data interface.
