SOFTWARE OVERVIEW
Using the EnerVista P485/D485 Setup software
DESCRIPTION
When creating a new sub network configuration, EnerVista P485/D485 Setup provides a
choice between starting out with a blank configuration, or using a predefined template
(configuration wizard).
•
Configuration Wizard: The wizard option automatically creates a configuration based
on information about the sub-network (Modbus) devices; that is, the user simply has to
“fill in the blanks”.
•
Blank Configuration: This option should be used when creating a new configuration
when the configuration wizard does not fit the application or to modify an existing
configuration for a new application. The following chapters will describe the
configuration process in detail.
It is recommended to use the configuration wizard for its simplicity of use with GE relays
and meters.
The online help system explains each configuration step in detail.
