Step 2: Use BESTCOMSPlus to configure the BESTlogicPlus programmable logic shown in Figure
66-1.
• Blocking is disabled.
• OUT1 closes for 87 Trip.
• OUT2 closes for 87 Pickup.
• Fault recording is enabled.

Step 3: Prepare to monitor the 87R function operation. Operation can be verified by monitoring OUT2
(see Figure 66-1).
Step 4: To test the Minimum Restrained Pickup setting, connect two balanced three-phase current
sources to the BE1-11m in ABC rotation: 0.5∠0°, 0.5∠–120°, 0.5∠120° amps to terminals D1
through D6 and 0.5∠180°, 0.5∠60°, 0.5∠–60° amps to terminals F1 through F6 (0.25x tap).
