Cycle Time and Execution Order
§ Execution of functions in ACT runs according to a fixedsequencey with different cycle time
§ For each cycle time, function block has a serial execitionnumber.
§ Classified as fast, medium and slow
§ Time value different between 650 and 670 series.

Cycle Time and Execution Order
§ Execution of different function blocks within the same cycleis determined by the serial execution number.
§ Additional time delays might be needed when connectingFB with fast cycle time to FB with slow cycle time

SMAI
§ Used to process the analog signals
§ All information of the analog signal like the RMS value,phase angle, frequency, harmonic content, sequencecomponent etc (about 244 values in total)
§ Information from the SMAI is then used in different functionblock in ACT.

Frequency Tracking
§ Adaptive frequency tracking is needed in order to ensureproper operation of DFT based functions during varyingfrequency conditions.
§ Frequency tracking is set using the DFTRefExtOut andDFTReference settings.
§ These parameters provide DFT reference for DFTcalculations.
§ InternalDFTRef uses fixed DFT reference based on setsystem frequency.
§ ExternalDFTRef will use reference based on inputDFTSPFC.

Frequency Tracking
§ Selected reference instance of SMAI must be voltage type.
§ Positive sequence voltage is used for the frequencytracking feature.
§ IntBlockLevel is set in % of Ubase / √3.
§ If the positive sequence voltage is lower thanIntBlockLevel, the feature is blocked.
§ Adaptive frequency tracking is applicable for IEDs ingenerating stations during start – up and shut – down.
