PRODUCT INFORMATION

Type FXB Microprocessor-Based Electronic Recloser Control Front Panel Programming Instructions
4
The FXB control front panel (see Figure 2) offers exten-
sive user interface status as well as control interrogation
through the menu-driven keypad and LCD display.
The FXB control, equipped with discrete SCADA (avail-
able as an accessory), allows 23 different status monitor-
ing points.
LCD User Interface
The FXB control LCD user interface consists of the fol-
lowing elements:
• A row of five manual-operation buttons or keys (located
below the 4-line x 20-character LCD display) that are used
to navigate through the menu system and to view or edit
control parameters. These keys are UP, DOWN, EDIT,
ENTER, and ESC.
• A text-based 4-line x 20-character LCD display (located
above the first row of five manual operation buttons or keys).
• A second row of five operation buttons or “hot keys” that are
used to perform specific functions. These hot keys are
OPER COUNTER, RMS CURRENT, DISPLAY TEST,
BATTERY TEST, and RESET TARGETS.
Specific usage of the LCD keys is described in the
Viewing Menus, Editing Parameters, and Using Hot Keys
sections of these instructions.
Menu System
The LCD menu system (see Figure 3) consists of the fol-
lowing levels:
• Level 1 Main Menu Items.
• Level 2 Sub-Menu which contains items within each
main menu item.
• Level 3 Page Menu which may contain up to four
parameters within each submenu item.
Where possible, menus and parameters have been
grouped to follow the arrangement of the Cooper Power
System Kyle®Distribution Switchgear FX, FXA, and FXB
Programmer software. The following formatting rules
have been established for displaying menu labels and
parameters on a single LCD line:
• All text may use up to a maximum of 19 characters.
The 20th character is reserved to indicate menu
direction/mode by using special characters.
• All menu labels are left justified.
• Parameters that have a value with units use the fol-
lowing format:
[Parameter Label - left justified]
[Parameter Value]
[Units - right justified]
• Parameters that have a value with no units use the
following format:
[Parameter Label - left justified]
[Parameter Value - right justified]
For an overview of the FXB menu system, see Figure 3.
Control Security
FXB control security provides limited access to functions
appropriate to responsibility levels of personnel. The
four-digit security code (or password) prohibits unautho-
rized keypad access to programming and other operating
parameters. No programming commands are accepted
by the control unless the operator enters the appropriate
four-digit security code. Provide the necessary security
codes to programming personnel.
The FXB is programmed at the factory with a standard
security code (or password) of AAAA. This code is
changeable to any 4-digit number via the front panel
under CONFIGURATION at the Password screen. See
the Editing Password section of these instructions for
more information.
A security password is not required for interrogation of
the control to display all operating parameters and read-
only functions of the control front panel.
Note: The security code is stored in nonvolatile random-
access memory (RAM). Therefore, it will never be lost,
even if ac power is lost and the battery is discharged.
FXB CONTROL FRONT PANEL
IMPORTANT: Security is provided and designed so that
only personnel completely familiar with the operation of
the control may gain access. Faulty programming could
lead to unintentional control performance.

Control Panel
Keyboard Functions
Located below the 4-line x 20-character LCD display are
two rows of five manual-operation buttons or keys. The
second row of five operation buttons are referred to as
Hot Keys (see Figure 5) and are used to perform specific
control functions. The Hot Keys are
OPER COUNTER, RMS CURRENT, DISPLAY
TEST, BATTERY TEST, and RESET TARGETS.
Using Hot Keys
The use of Hot Keys (see Figure 5) quickly displays the
LCD menu range for the selected key. Hot Keys also pro-
vide a quick alternative to using a computer interface or
scrolling through the LCD menus.
UP Arrow: This key is used to scroll UP through the pro-
gramming menu.
DOWN Arrow: This key is used to scroll DOWN through
the programming menu.
EDIT: This key, for programmable functions, will (with the
use of the UP and DOWN scroll keys) allow a different
parameter to be selected and changed.
ESC (Escape): This key allows user to back out of each
submenu or menu and return to the main programming
menu. Pressing this key while in the edit mode will imme-
diately return the user to the viewing mode.
OPER. COUNTER (Operations Counter): This key dis-
plays the operations counter value on the LCD display (i.e.,
OPERATIONS XX). This value updates once every second
or until the ESC key is pressed to escape from this menu.
RMS CURRENT: Pressing this key displays the four
instantaneous currents on the LCD display. The currents
update once every second or until the ESC key is pressed
to escape from this menu.
DISPLAY TEST: Pressing this key toggles all LEDs on
the front panel on and off three times then returns each
LED to its current status. The DISPLAY TEST hot key
also tests each segment on the LCD display and returns
it to its previous state.
BATTERY TEST: This key starts the battery test
sequence. The battery is measured with no load, then the
voltage is displayed via the LCD. A 15 Ωload is then
applied directly across the battery. Five seconds later, the
loaded battery voltage is displayed on the LCD screen
with a Battery OK or Battery Not OK message. This
message remains on the screen until the ESC key is
pressed to escape from this menu.
RESET TARGET: Pressing this key turns off all Fault
Target LEDs that are currently on. This function can be
performed at any time without affecting the LCD menu
system. Pressing this key has no effect if all Fault Target
LEDs are off.
Hot Keys:
the five manual-
operation buttons
in the second row

Manual operation of the FXB control occurs through the
use of the front-panel manual-operation switches. The
switches are
•SGF/SEF BLOCK (optional)
•NON-RECLOSING
•GROUND TRIP BLOCKED
•ALTERNATE MINIMUM TRIP
•SUPERVISORY ON
•HOT LINE TAG
•MANUAL CONTROL SWITCH
Refer to Figure 6 as needed to locate each key.
Using Manual-Operation Switches
The use of manual-operation switches (see Figure 6)
provides designated control commands to the recloser.
The switches also provide an alternative to using a com-
puter interface or scrolling through the LCD menus.
SUPERVISORY ON: The SUPERVISORY ON feature is
provided on controls equipped with the optional SCADA
accessory. If the SUPERVISORY ON switch is on, it
allows supervisory operation of the control. Conversely, if
the SUPERVISORY ON switch is not on, it prevents
supervisory operation of the control.
HOT LINE TAG: HOT LINE TAG prevents all closing
operations by opening control contacts in series with the
recloser low-voltage closing-circuit coil. If the feature is
activated while the recloser is closed and the control is in
the reset (home) position, a fault will cause one trip oper-
ation to lockout.
GROUND TRIP BLOCKED: Ground-fault trip operation of
the control is disabled when the GROUND TRIP BLOCK
switch is set in the block position. Blocking ground-trip
operations is useful during known periods of three-phase
load imbalance and is recommended while performing
single-phase load imbalance, testing, or switching.
NON-RECLOSING: By setting the operating mode
switch to NON RECLOSING, the FXB control will block
reclosing after an automatic trip (one trip operation to
lockout) on TCC #1 for phase and ground. When set in
the NORMAL RECLOSING mode, the FXB control will
operate on its programmed operating sequence.
SGF/SEF BLOCK: This switch controls the detection of
and recloser tripping operations for Sensitive
Ground/Earth fault currents below the normal pro-
grammed SGF/SEF minimum trip level (optional feature).
ALTERNATE MINIMUM TRIP: This switch permits
switching to alternate preprogrammed phase, ground,
and sensitive ground-fault minimum-trip values.
TRIP (LOCKOUT) AND CLOSE SWITCHES: Pressing
the green TRIP switch opens the recloser, and the con-
trol locks out. Pressing the red CLOSE button returns the
recloser to the reset condition, and the recloser closes.
While the switch is in the close position, the control is still
free to trip and lockout if closed into a fault.

Viewing Menus
Accessing the menus for viewing purposes is accom-
plished by using the UP, DOWN, ENTER, and ESC
(ESCAPE) keys. The direction of available menus is indi-
cated to the user by display of special characters; down
arrow, up arrow, and up and down arrow; on the last col-
umn of the first LCD line. The initial state of the menu
system displays the first item from the main menu, CON-
FIGURATION; this is called the home position. From this
point the user can proceed as follows:
1. Press the UP and DOWN key to view other main menu
items.
2. Press the ENTER key to access the first submenu
from the selected main menu item.
3. Press the ESC key to go back to the home position if
the menu is not already there.
Once the first submenu item from a selected main menu
item is displayed, the user can proceed as follows:
1. Press the UP and DOWN key to view other submenu
items.
2. Press the ENTER key to access the first page menu
from a selected submenu item.
3. Press the ESC (escape) key to go back to the previ-
ously selected main menu item.
Once the first page menu item from a selected submenu
item is displayed, the user can proceed as follows:
1. Press the UP and DOWN key to view other page
menu items.
2. Press the ESC (escape) key to go back to the previ-
ously selected submenu item.
The FXB function tree (Figure 3) illustrates the sublevels
of the FXB Menu System. The first row contains the six
main menu items: Configuration, Basic Parameters,
Advanced Parameters, Meters/Counters, Event
Recorder, and Load Profile. Under each of these main
menu items is a number of submenus demonstrating
what type of information can be obtained or changed at
the next level or page menu.
Editing Parameters
The EDIT key becomes active when a page menu is
being displayed and at least one parameter from the
menu has the write or reset attribute. For example, the
RMS currents are read-only parameters, so the EDIT key
has no effect when they are displayed.
To edit a parameter, proceed as follows:
1. Press the EDIT key. A left arrow character is dis-
played on the last column of the LCD line to indicate
which parameter to select for editing.
2. Press the UP or DOWN key to select which parame-
ter to edit.
3. Press the EDIT key. The left arrow character changes
to a blinking up & down arrow character to indicate
that the parameter can now be edited.
4. Press the UP or DOWN key to select the desired
parameter value. For parameters that have a wide
range of values such as Minimum Trips, a speed
increment/decrement feature has been implemented.
If the UP or DOWN key is held pressed-in for up to
approximately 3 seconds, the parameter value is
updated at a rate of approximately 10 times per sec-
ond. After 3 seconds of continuously pressing either
key, the parameter value is increased or decreased,
respectively, by approximately 5% of its remaining
range and updated at a rate of approximately 10
times per second.
5. Once the desired parameter has been selected,
press the ENTER key to perform the change and then
exit from the edit mode. If the previously selected
parameter is rejected by the control, the message
PARAMETER REJECTED is displayed. Press the
ESC (escape) key to clear the message, then return
to the view mode. For example, the range of valid
minimum trips depend on the CT ratio, so it is possi-
ble to have a minimum trip setting that would be con-
sidered invalid at the time a CT ratio change is
attempted.
When the LCD becomes active, the first parameter to be
edited requires the user to enter the active password.
To enter the password, proceed as follows:
1. Press the EDIT key. The blinking up and down
arrow character is displayed to indicate that the active
PASSWORD can now be entered. Then use the UP
and DOWN key to select an alphanumeric number.
2. Press the ENTER key. This will store the first character
and set up the selection of the next character. Since
the password consists of four characters, select and
enter the second, third, and fourth characters. The
user can only see the character being selected. Other
characters are displayed as asterisks (*).
3. After selecting the fourth character, press the
ENTER key. If the password just entered is the same
as the active password, the LCD returns to the view
mode and the previous sequence for editing parame-
ters can now be followed. If not the same, the message
INVALID PASSWORD is displayed.
4. If the ERROR message is displayed, press the
ESC key to clear it and return to the view mode.
If the user has changed the password but is unable to
remember it, contact your Cooper Power Systems repre-
sentative.

that is allowed in the graph workspace of the TCC Editor.
Time must be greater than or equal to 0.008 and less
than or equal to 100 seconds.
HCT IGNORED WARNING
The selected HCT time was ignored because using it
would have resulted in non-monotonic curve.
MRT BELOW CURVE WARNING
The selected MRT had no effect because the TCC
always times longer than the MRT.
CALCULATION ERROR
This system error occurs if the FXB cannot allocate
enough memory to calculate TCC.
Edit mode for TCC modifiers can be terminated at any
time by pressing the ESC key.
The TCC calculation generates data for 50 or 60 Hz fre-
quencies automatically. The data that is generated for a
modified TCC is not stored by the FXB. Names for mod-
ified TCCs are automated. For example, the standard
curve “Kyle-101 60”will have the name “Kyle-101 60
mod”when it has been modified.
