PM compatibility: 1.22.0.

New features:

• Support for the new input configuration interface.
• DVC 550 PT100 measurements in display and selection in delta alarms.
• EIC start/stop as a parameter.

• Racked out breaker On/off displayed in log.
• Minimum level of "Frequency detection level (6165)" changed from 20hz to 10hz. 

Corrections:

• Ground relay routine improved:
        - There is now always an overlap when transferring ground relays between DGs.
        - The best DG to hold the ground relay now keeps it closed during de-load and transfer of the ground relay happens when the de-loading DG is ready to open its GB.
        - Older versions with ground relay enabled are no longer compatible going forward.
• AGC 150 Read log freezes controller. 
• Phase calculations are now properly performed and transmitted to the DVC 550 & D550 when changed through M-Logic.
• AC configuration in the D550/DVC 550 is now controlled by the AGC.
• When configured for split phase operation, the nominal voltage setpoint is now correctly calculated for the DVC 550/D550.
• New parameter #7746 DAVR AC config is introduced. This helps fix situations where the DAVR is not able to follow the AC configuration of the AGC.
• Configuring a mains standalone application with the CAN bus set to OFF in the application configuration prevented the MB from closing. This has been corrected.
• If a DG was running with its GB open and ground relay closed, and a mains then connected to the busbar, the ground relay would open. This has been corrected.
• Alternative engine speed control for Volvo protocols including counter and checksum is added. Can be enabled with the new parameter 15110.
• LTO now works correctly when unit is STAND-ALONE (non-sync).
• Multi input alarm level 2 Min/Max now updates correctly when output limits are changed from multi input configuration in USW.

1.03.0

03/04/2020

PM compatibility: 1.17.2

New features:

•    DVC 550 and D550 are now supported by the AGC.
•    Configurable amount of units for triggering Fatal CAN Error alarm, added in menu 8800.

Changes:

•    Emulated value for I>> alarms added.
•    Easy Connect is no longer blocking DG start in single DG applications.

Corrections:

•    In AMF situations where the mains had no TB, and #7065 mains fail ctrl was set to "Start engine" and the DGs had to connect through a BTB to supply the mains, the MB would not open as it did not have information about whether or not the DGs Hz/V OK timer had run out. And as the MB would not open the BTB would not close resulting in a deadlock. This has been corrected.
•    TB power capacity overrule timer will now run if there is an active MB trip failclass or the MB cannot be closed.
•    Ring bus applications: If BTBs were closed at and under application configuration, opening a BTB could cause a DG to start without a proper start signal.
•    Fixed a situation where opening a semi BTB, in a plant with an active start signal, would cause a DG to briefly engange its start prepare relay.

•    In a plant where all DGs are divided by open BTBs, if for example, DG1 is running and needs help from DG2, DG2 would start and close its breaker, then synchronize the BTB, and as the BTB would close, DG3 would briefly engange its start prepare relay. This has been fixed.
•    PMS + ISLAND + SEMI + GUIDED MIMIC: Start/stop buttons LED visible when relevant on genset.

•    Problems with freeze and white screen are now prevented.
•    Analogue values from CIO 308 are now shown correctly in view-lines.
•    JUMP menu causing unwanted parameter change is corrected.
•    JUMP menu freeze is now prevented.
•    Overspeed 2 menu (4520) is now shown correctly.
•    GUIDED mimic is corrected with external breaker, so GB ON/OFF buttons do not lit up.
