Refer to the Reference Figures in preceding Table 10.1 and the following Table 10.2. Note that
demodulated IRIG-B time code can be input into Serial Port 2 on any of the SEL-351 Relay
models. This is handled adeptly by connecting Serial Port 2 of the SEL-351 Relay to an SEL-2020
with Cable C273A (see cable diagrams that follow in this section).
Refer to the Reference Figures in preceding Table 10.1 for SEL-351 Relay models 0351x0,
0351x1, and 0351xY and the following Table 10.3. Note that demodulated IRIG-B time code can
be input into the connector for Serial Port 1 on these three models. If demodulated IRIG-B time
code is input into this connector, it should not be input into Serial Port 2 and vice versa.
