Applicable Software These instructions were prepared for use with software UIMD3C1X, Rev. 1.3.
You can find the revision number on the Setup disk label and on the main screen of the UIM,
called the PRESENT CONDITIONS screen. For questions regarding the applicability of
information in this chapter to future software releases, please contact S&C.
ÇWARNING
These instructions do NOT replace the need for utility operation standards. Any
conflict between the information in this document and utility practices should be
reviewed by appropriate utility personnel and a decision made as to the correct
procedures to follow.
Serious risk of personal injury or death may result from contact with electric distribu-
tion equipment when electrical isolation and grounding procedures are not followed.
The equipment described in this document must be operated and maintained by
qualified persons who are thoroughly trained and understand any hazards that may
be involved. This document is written only for such qualified persons and is not a
substitute for adequate training and experience in safety procedures for accessing
high voltage equipment.
The Universal Interface Module and host control are connected to switchgear operat-
ing at primary voltage levels. High voltage may be present in the wiring to the switch
control or the switch control itself during certain failures of the switchgear wiring
or grounding system, or due to a failure of the switch itself. For this reason, access
to the switch control should be treated with the same safety precautions that would
be applied when accessing other high voltage lines and equipment. Follow all locally-
approved safety procedures when working on or around this switch control.
Before attempting to access an existing switch installation, check carefully for vis-
ible or audible signs of electrical or physical malfunction (do this before touching
or operating the switch control or any other part of the installation). These warning
signs include such things as smoke, fire, open fuses, crackling noises, loud buzzing,
etc. If a malfunction is suspected, treat all components of the installation, including
the switch control and associated mounting hardware, as if they were elevated to
primary (high) voltage.
Whenever you are manually reconfiguring the circuit (for example, during repairs),
follow your company’s operating procedures to disable automatic operation of the
IntelliTEAM II system. This prevents any unexpected operation of a team member.
You can disable the IntelliTEAM II system by pressing the automatic operation
ENABLE/DISABLE faceplate button to DISABLE on the faceplate of any active
5800 based team member of the team you want to disable, or turn on Prohibit Res-
toration on the UIM faceplate.

operations, this field reads Good. Other Possible values are:
Coordination The team coach is not being passed throughout the team,
causing a lack of team coordination.
Remote Config The configuration of an adjacent team member is not consis-
tent with the local team member’s configuration.
Local Config There has been a change to the local team configuration on
the SETUP: Team screen that has not yet been accepted.
Remote Error An adjacent team member is indicating an error condition.
Local Error The local switch is disabled because Prohibit Restoration is
ON, or because the switch has changed state from a faceplate
or SCADA operation.
Logic Disabled The team logic has been disabled on the SETUP: Team
screen.
Not In Use This team is not in use.
No 2nd Contin. The team is in a transferred state, but if an additional event
occurs, no further transfer is allowed.
Configuration Status
This is the status of the user configuration parameters essential for team operation. Pos-
sible values are:
NoRTU Addr No RTU address was specified on the SETUP: Communica-
tions screen.
Stop + Data Chg The “Team Setup” setpoint is in a “Stopped” state follow-
ing a change made to the team parameters on the SETUP:
Team screen.
Stopped The “Team Setup” setpoint is disabled on the SETUP: Team
screen.
Data Change An unexpected change has been made to the team param-
eters on the SETUP: Team screen.
Record Count The count of team member records on the SETUP: Team
screen is incorrect. The team database must have at least
one record to be valid.
Not 1 Source An incorrect number of source switches was configured on
the SETUP: Team screen. A team may have one and only
one source switch.
No Local Rec No local record was found in the team database. One of the
team records must contain an RTU address that matches the
“DNP/RTU Address” entered on the SETUP: Communica-
tions screen.

Line Segment Status
This is the fault and voltage loss status of the line segment protected by this team of con-
trols. If no fault or voltage loss is detected, this field reads “Good.” The field can include
a combination of possible values:
Segment Dead (Dd) The line segment is deenergized.
Segment Open (Op) All team switches are in the open position in preparation for
a circuit reconfiguration.
Overcurrent (OC) An overcurrent fault has been detected on the line segment
protected by this team of controls.
Voltage Loss (VL) A voltage loss event has been detected on this line segment
before this transfer event occurred.
Team Error (Er) An error has been detected within the team, affecting the
accuracy of the “Line Segment Status.”
Alt Source (AS) The line segment is being fed by an alternate source, either
directly from an adjacent line segment, or indirectly from
another location.
Local Real-Time Load
This is the 2-minute averaged measured 3-phase load (in amps) on the line segment pro-
tected by this team. This averaged load does not include the load measured beyond any
of the switches serving load outside of the local line segment.
Real Capacity
This is the loading capacity available on the line segment protected by this team. This value
takes into account the real capacity of any source-side teams, the maximum capacity of
the team’s present source switch, and any load that has already been transferred during
team circuit reconfiguration.
