1. RECEPTION & INSTALLATION
1.1 Relay unpacking
Previously to any handling action, confirm that relay carton box is in good conditions, no broken or
damaged due to external manipulation or during storing or moving process. If packing is correct,
proceed to unpack and you should find following element:
•SIAF Electronic protection relay.
•User Guide.
•Testing protocol.
Testing protocol is a certificate that relay has passed all factory testing process with correct
results.
In case some fault is detected, consider putting into quarantine period the relay and contact Fanox
for further instructions.
1.2 Relay verification
When relay is unpacked, please, take your time to confirm following checking list to be sure that
everything is ok:
•Metallic case not damaged and well assembled. No loose screws due to transport or
movement conditions
•LCD and front cover not damaged or scratched.
•Quality sticker and terminal sticker correctly stuck.
•Rear terminals in good state, being able to do a good wiring connection.

www.fanox.com SIAFxxxxxxxxxxx_Rev. 01 4/32
1.3 Powering the relay up with kitcom
Thanks to the external battery KITCOM the powering and adjusting process of the relay is very
easy and it allows the user to test the relay.
The power comes from two AA batteries (IEC LR06) of 1.5 Volts placed at the bottom of the
kitcom. The equipment has a small Dc/Dc power supply that raises the voltage till the required 5
volts to operate the equipment and that is plugged into the front USB communications port
(KITCOM).
Once the KITCom is connected, the relay will be switched on and a led on the left of the relay (led
on) will blink indicating the relay is powered on through an external battery (KITCOM).
The relay is totally maintenance free. This is, there is no need of batteries to log events and fault
reports and there is no need of batteries to maintain date and time.
NOTE: Date and time must be correctly set the first time the relay is operative, and energy must
be kept at least “1 hour” to maintain the RTC for 72 hours once the energy is lost.
Besides, the possibility of using external battery power, together with the possibility of activating
the trip contact from the test menu, allows the trip circuit to be tested before the transformation
center is powered up. So, the KITCOM is useful for cases like commissioning operations,
discharges and repairs to the transformation center.
Using battery power does not block the USB communications port, as it can be used
simultaneously.
Once the relay is powered through the Kitcom, it is recommended to check:
•Model →Directly, complete model on top line and phases/neutral current measurement
on bottom line are displayed. Once “C” key is pressed the name of phase and neutral
currents (instead the complete model) is displayed on the top of LCD Standby screen.
•Serial Number →In “General Settings” menu serial number of 8 digits can be checked (OK
- ▼ - ▼ - ◄ - ▼ - ▼)
•Firmware version →HOLD ▲

www.fanox.com SIAFxxxxxxxxxxx_Rev. 01 5/32
1.1.1. Keypad & LCD
•Use the KEYPAD, ensure that all the push-buttons work correctly (no difficulties while
pushing them, check out if the relay reacts by pushing each of the buttons).
•Use the KEYPAD to enter in the relay´s menu and make sure that no text is lost while going
from one menu to another.
•Follow the sequence: Left ◄, Down ▼, Right ►, Up ▲, OK, C and RESET and the
following screen should be displayed:
•If the contrast of the LCD is not the correct one, enter to “CONTRAST” menu by holding “◄
“for 3 seconds. Then, change it by using up or down buttons to increase or decrease the
contrast.
1.1.2. Test menu
NOTE: When performing test menu, protection won´t be available and it will possible to open
circuit breaker. Only authorized personnel can do this job.
Press ◄, ▼, ► sequentially and hold OK. The relay will ask for the password “5555” to enter to
the test menu (or customer password if default “5555” has been modified).
It will be checked that the LEDs, Magnetic indicator flags and Outputs are activated if OK key is
pressed and it will be deactivated if OK key is pressed again. LEDs, Magnetic indicator and
outputs will be checked to verify the hardware is OK:

2.1 Relay front part
2.2 LED Indicators
The SIA-F front panel has three LEDs. The operation of the LED indicators can be checked from
the test menu.
The user can change the configuration of the LEDs depending on its requirements.
2.3 How to install SICOM Software
To install the SICom it is necessary the following link:
http://fanox.blob.core.windows.net/sicom/publish.htm
The link will open the next screen, where key “install” must be pressed:
The necessary drivers depending on the operative system can be downloaded from this page. The
update of the software does not require any user´s action, this is, if the computer is connected to
Internet, SICom updates itself when it is started.

2.4 Setting-up the session: Password and access levels
Users must identify themselves with a password to start communications and to change the
equipment settings or configuration using the HMI.
By default, the password is 5555 and it can be changed from general settings menu.

6. PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROL (*)
The SIA-F has up to 3 physical outputs (trip output, output 2 and output 3). The outputs can be
configured from the HMI or through the SICom program.
Physical inputs are the real inputs of the device. SIA-F device has two physical inputs (Input 1 and
Input 2). These inputs are translated to two internal binary states which later, can be assigned to
logical signal to get a specific operation.
For each output, there is a LOGICAL GATE. It can perform a logical operation up to 4 binary
states to obtain other binary result. In V3 of the PLC the LOGICAL GATES that are supported by
SIAF are:
