Programming the BE1-11t
This section contains an introduction to BESTCOMSPlus, explains summary screens, and gives an
example of settings elements and programming logic.
Introduction to BESTCOMSPlus
®
BESTCOMSPlus is a Windows ®-based, PC application that provides a user-friendly, graphical user
interface (GUI) for use with Basler Electric communicating products. The name BESTCOMSPlus is an
acronym that stands for Basler Electric Software Tool for Communications, Operations, Maintenance, and
Settings.
BESTCOMSPlus provides the user with a point-and-click means to set and monitor the BE1-11t. The
capabilities of BESTCOMSPlus make the configuration of one or several BE1-11t Transformer Protection
Systems fast and efficient. A primary advantage of BESTCOMSPlus is that a settings scheme can be
created, saved as a file, and then uploaded to the BE1-11t at the user’s convenience.
The BE1-11 plugin opens inside the BESTCOMSPlus main shell. The same default logic scheme that is
shipped with the BE1-11t is brought into BESTCOMSPlus by downloading settings and logic from the
BE1-11t or by selecting application type “T” on the Style Number screen. This gives the user the option of
developing a custom setting file by modifying the default logic scheme or by building a unique scheme
from scratch.
BESTlogic
™Plus Programmable Logic is used to program BE1-11t logic for protection elements, inputs,
outputs, alarms, etc. This is accomplished by the drag-and-drop method. The user can drag elements,
components, inputs, and outputs onto the program grid and make connections between them to create
the desired logic scheme.
BESTCOMSPlus also allows for downloading industry-standard COMTRADE files for analysis of stored
oscillography data. Detailed analysis of the oscillography files can be accomplished using BESTwave
software.
Figure 8 illustrates the typical user interface components of the BE1-11 plugin with BESTCOMSPlus.
