CAUTION

Always remove the relay from service before changing or modifying the active

logic scheme. Attempting a logic scheme change while the relay is in service

could generate unexpected or unwanted outputs.

Creating or Customizing a Logic Scheme

Before customizing a preprogrammed logic scheme, the scheme must be renamed. The following

procedure outlines the process of customizing or creating a logic scheme:
Step 1. Copy the preprogrammed logic scheme.
Step 2. Rename the scheme with a unique, non-preprogrammed name.
Step 3. Using BESTCOMS, enable or disable the desired relay functions.
Step 4. Edit the logic expressions as required.
Step 5. Save the changes. Refer to Section 14, BESTCOMS Software, for more information on how to

save and export settings files.

Sending and Retrieving Relay Settings
Retrieving Relay Settings

To retrieve settings from the relay, the relay must be connected to a computer through a serial port. Once

the necessary connections are made, settings can be downloaded from the relay by selecting Download

Settings from Device on the Communication pull-down menu.

Sending Relay Settings

To send settings to the relay, the relay must be connected to a computer through a serial port. Once the

necessary connections are made, settings can be uploaded to the relay by selecting Upload Settings to

Device on the Communication pull-down menu.

Debugging the Logic Scheme

If there are problems with a customized logic scheme, the RG-STAT command can be used to check the

status of all logic variables. More information about the RG-STAT command can be found in Section 6,

Reporting and Alarms.

User Input and Output Logic Variable Names

Assigning meaningful names to the inputs and outputs makes sequential events reports easier to analyze.

Input and output logic variable names are assigned by typing them into the appropriate text box on the

related BESTCOMS screen. All of the BE1-851’s inputs, outputs, and 43 switches have labels that can be

edited. Tables 7-3, 7-4, and 7-5 show the range and purpose of each label. Alternately, labels may be

edited using the SN-[name]=[label] ASCII command.
