RESTART BESTnet
Button Click to activate Clicking this button generates a prompt that allows you to
restart the BE1-700 BESTnet subsystem. This restart
terminates all Ethernet connections and reinitializes the
BESTnet processor. It is necessary to restart BESTnet after
changing network parameters.
CONFIGURING BESTCOMS
™ FOR ETHERNET
Connect your PC and the BE1-700 Digital Protective Relay to the TCP/IP LAN or intranet. An Ethernet
port is provided on the back of the relay. Start BESTCOMS as described in Section 14, BESTCOMS
Software.
Identifying the IP Address
To identify an unknown IP address, click the Ethernet Communication pull-down menu (available on any
BESTCOMS screen) and select Download Settings from Device. This will display the screen shown in
Figure 15-10. Click the Scan for Connected Devices button. Immediately, the Basler Electric Device
Discovery (configuration utility) program will run and reflect the IP Address and Relay ID of BE1-700
relays on the same LAN (as shown in Figure 15-11). (Note that all BE1-700 Ethernet-enabled relays on
the same subnet will be displayed. So, you may have to confirm the correct IP address with your network
administrator.) On the BE1-700 Device Discovery screen, click the Add button to add the second device
to the list of known BE1-700 relays. Click Connect to connect without adding the device to the list. Note
this IP address since it can be used to access the web pages of the BE1-700 with BESTnet.
