Edit General Settings - GE ALPS Instruction Manual

8 LOCAL USER INTERFACE
Using this option, the user can display or change settings other than Protection Settings (e.g. Configuration, Communica-
tions, Oscillography, etc.). Unlike the Protection Settings, there is only one group of General Settings. SETTING or MAS-
TER privilege level must be active to change General Settings. It is possible, however, to view General Settings with
CONTROL or default privilege level.
Viewing/Editing of General Settings and the response to key selection is similar to that described for Protection Settings.
This command allows selection of setting group to be used by protection functions. When this command is selected, the
currently active group is displayed as shown above. The cursor is positioned on the second line. and n indicates the group
number currently active. If group number selection is currently controlled by contact converter inputs, the display will con-
tain the message EXTERNAL.
When the active group number is changed, the equals sign (=) will be replaced by a blinking colon (:) until the [ENT] key is
pressed. The user can enter a value between 0 to 4. Entering 1 to 4 followed by [ENT] key selects Setting Group 1 to 4 for
use by protection. Entering the group number 0 tells the relay to read the active group number from contact converter
inputs. If any number other than 0 to 4 is entered, an error message is displayed on the second line until the [CLR] key is
pressed.
This command is used to display or change the current date and/or time stored in the relay. SETTING or MASTER privilege
level is required to change the date and/or time, however, users with any privilege level can view the date and time. When
this item is selected, the display looks as shown below:
The cursor will be on the second line. To change the date or the time, place the cursor on the line with the desired item and
press the [ENT] key.
Enter the 6 digits corresponding to the correct date or time from the numeric keypad and press the [ENT] key. When the
first digit is entered, the 6 digits on the display are blanked and the equals sign (=) is replaced by a blinking colon (:) until
the [ENT] key is pressed. If the entered digits do not represent a valid date or time, the old date or time is retained and an
error message displayed.
In both cases, two checks are performed: privilege level must be SETTING or MASTER and entered data must be in the
correct format. If the checks fail then an error message is displayed and the change is not performed.
