869 MOTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM – COMMUNICATIONS GUIDE
The following are the network settings menu of the 869 to accommodate the features of
the 869 product. If the communications card is installed network port 1 is no longer
available. When using more than one Ethernet port, configure each to belong to a different
network or subnet using the IP addresses and mask, else communication becomes
unpredictable when more than one port is configured to the same subnet.
The softkeys and Down/Up key can be used to enter an IP address. When entering an IP
address you must press the "Back" key first to switch between softkey mode and the
Down/Up key mode.
NETWORK 1, 4, 5, PRT1(4,5) IP ADDRESS
Range: Standard IPV4 Address format
Default: 169.254.3.3 (Port 1)
Default: 127.0.0.1 (Port 4, 5)
The setting sets the port's IPV4 address in standard IPV4 format.
The setting is valid on port 1 if the optional communications card is not present.
The setting is valid on port 5 if port 4's OPERATION is set to INDEPENDENT.
PRT1(4,5) SUBNET IP MASK
Range: Standard IPV4 mask format
Default: 255.255.255.0 (Port 1)
Default: 0.0.0.0 (Port 4, 5)
This setting specifies the IPv4 mask associated with the corresponding port IP address.
PRT1 GWY ADDRESS
This setting sets the ports IPv4 GATEWAY address in standard IPv4 format.
This setting is only valid on port 1.
This setting is not present on port 4 and 5, which are available on the communications
card.
The communications card comes with the capability of setting a number of static routes
and one default route, which is used instead of default gateways.
Notes:
• The fiber optic ports support only 100 Mbps.
• Changes to the Ethernet communications settings take effect only after rebooting the
relay.
• All Ethernet ports have flex operands associated with them. A failure of one of the
Ethernet ports will trigger an event, a target message and the corresponding operand
set.
