Preface
General Information
General Information
The SEL-421 Instruction Manual uses certain conventions that identify particular
terms and help you find information. To benefit fully from reading this manual,
take a moment to familiarize yourself with these conventions.
Typographic Conventions
There are three ways users typically communicate with SEL-400 series relays:
➤ Using a command line interface on a PC terminal emulation window,
such as Microsoft HyperTerminal
➤ Using the front-panel menus and pushbuttons
➤ Using ACSELERATOR QuickSet SEL-5030 Software
The instructions in this manual indicate these options with specific font and for-
matting attributes. The following table lists these conventions:
Do not connect power to the relay until you have completed these proce-
dures and receive instruction to apply power. Equipment damage can
result otherwise.
Ne pas mettre le relais sous tension avant d’avoir complété ces procé-
dures et d’avoir reçu l’instruction de brancher l’alimentation. Des dom-
mages à l’équipement pourraient survenir autrement.
Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein, may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
L’utilisation de commandes ou de réglages, ou l’application de tests de
fonctionnement différents de ceux décrits ci-après peuvent entraîner
l’exposition à des radiations dangereuses.
