The software functions/settings are stored in nonvolatile flash memory. ECM-2 modules in dual channel or with supervisory configuration also offer protection schemes to detect or announce when failures occur from within or outside the excitation system to aid troubleshooting and recovery time. The ECM-2 has the capability to synchronize the system clock using either Network Time Protocol (NTP) or IRIG-B time code format and standards within 1ms, with any failure to synchronize indicated by alarm status. The ECM-2 generates a firing command signal while gathering signals from the Field Isolation Transducers (FIT) for field voltage and the excitation transformer (PPT) secondary voltage. Each module contains 24 analog-to-digital converters for taking measurements from these transformers and other inputs. Fiber optic connections are made from the ECM-2 to expansion lower-speed analog (AIOM) and digital (DIOM) input/output modules.

This two-out-of-three voting process with the third channel (Supervisory) is also used to determine which of the dual channel controllers is selected to be in control and regulate the generator's output. POWER SECTION DESCRIPTION Digital Firing Logic Digital firing control of the thyristor bridges in the DECS- 2100 utilizes field programmable gate arrays that are supervised by a microprocessor with diagnostic capabilities located on each Bridge Control Module (BCM). Monitoring functions of each BCM include the conduction of thyristors, the temperature of the bridge, and a magnitude of bridge current feature. Each power converter is a three-phase, six-pulse, thyristor- controlled full converter whose ac input line frequency can Figure 2 - DECS-2100 One-Line Diagram, be in the range of 5 to 500 Hz.
