Setpoints pages

The Setpoints pages are divided into five sections.

operations)

key)

The Home > Setpoints page displays a warning message concerning unexpected
performance if setpoints are improperly changed. It is recommended that all relay outputs
capable of causing damage or harm be blocked before a setpoints change is made and it
is clear the relay is performing as intended with the new setpoints.
