1 OrionLX TM An Overview of the OrionLX Product Line

2 The Best Substation Automation Platform Out There Is in Here The OrionLX Family of Substation Automation Platforms perform an expanding array of automation and security applications in electric utility substations, with minimal setup and maintenance. A single OrionLX can replace multiple legacy boxes in a substation, reducing hardware, design, wiring, and panel costs. Orion is the automation platform of choice for more U.S. utilities than any competing product.* *Newton Survey 2010, 2012 Table of Contents 02 Introduction 04 Design Products Features 06 Hardware Enhancements 08 Evolutionary Applications 10 Distributed Improvement I/O 10 Applications 12 I/O Modules 14 People Behind the Products

3 4 novatech orionlx overview 5 OrionLX Design Goals The OrionLX and OrionLXm borrow design features from rugged protective relays, modular PLCs, powerful PCs, diagnostic test sets, and secure routers. The result is a rugged platform that can reliably take on a range of automation tasks. OrionLXm (top), OrionLX (bottom) Rugged Flexible & Modular Standard PC Tools Meets ANSI C Fast Transient on I/O and power supplies and ANSI C RFI to 35 volts per meter. Direct fiber optic is available on serial communication ports and Ethernet port. Designed to operate over -40 C to 70 C without heaters, fans, or moving parts. Both hardware and software are modular. Communication cards can be switched or added, software options and protocols can be added quickly and easily in the field. Toolsets for logic, HMI development, and points mapping provide the flexibility to meet the needs of multiple applications. Includes a large solid state memory, SQL-compliant relational database, web technology, and standard tools for file transfer, diagnostics, and time management. Utility Specific Built-in Diagnostics Built-in NERC CIP Security Includes functions for breaker controls, counters, accumulators, Local/Remote, and momentary-change-detect. Includes support for both legacy utility protocols (Modbus, CDC, Conitel, etc.) and new international standards (IEC 61850, IEC 60870, and DNP3). Includes a built-in protocol analyzer to view all messages, plus extensive diagnostic LEDs, internal health monitoring, and time diagnostics. Commissioning tools include points blocking and forcing functions. Comes equipped with built-in security, including strong passwords, remote authentication, encrypted protocols (OpenVPN, HTTPS, SSH, SFTP), firewall and syslog.

All are designed to reliably operate over a wide temperature range (-40 o C to 70 o C) in electrical substations, and to withstand high levels of electrical noise from fast transients, electrostatic discharge, and radio frequencies. All operate with common substation battery voltages: 24V dc, 48V dc, and 125V dc. No conversion relays are required. Discrete inputs and analog transducer inputs are electrically isolated from each other, ensuring compatibility in retrofit applications. All outputs are relay-grade, suitable for directly operating switches, and energizing breaker trip coils. Discrete inputs quickly sense state changes and are provided with filters for use in 1ms SOE timestamping applications. Left: Orion DDIO (top), Orion DCIO (bottom) Right: Bitronics 878 HDIO High Density I/O Distributed Discrete I/O Distributed Combination I/O The Bitronics 878 High Density I/O (HDIO) provides up to 56 combinations of digital inputs, digital outputs, and transducer inputs in a compact 3RU package. All I/O is accessible via DNP3 TCP, IEC or Modbus TCP (copper or fiber), or serial DNP3 or Modbus (RS-232 or RS-485) for substation equipment monitoring. The 878 also includes on-board Boolean Logic. The Orion DDIO is a distributed I/O device with discrete inputs and outputs: 24-in, 16-in/8-out and 8-in/16-out. All I/O is accessible via DNP3 serial (RS-232, RS-485 or ST fiber) or DNP3 TCP (10/100 copper). All configuration is through built-in webpages. Security features include password, firewall, and encrypted protocols. Flexible mounting options include 19 rack mount, panel mount, or DIN rail. The Orion DCIO is a distributed combination I/O device with eight (8) discrete inputs, eight (8) discrete outputs, and eight (8) transducer inputs (selectable per circuit +/-2mA, +/-10V, 4-20mA). All I/O is accessible via DNP3 serial (RS-232, RS-485, or ST fiber) or DNP3 TCP (10/100 copper). All configuration is through built-in webpages. All other features are the same as the DDIO.
