the desired setting, then press <Enter>. Separate the hours, minutes, and
seconds with colons, semicolons, spaces, commas, or slashes. To set the clock

Access Level 2 Commands
CON Command (Control Remote Bit)
The CON command is a two-step command that allows you to control Meter
Word bits RB01 through RB16 (see Rows 22 and 23 in Tab l e 9.3 ). At the
Access Level 2 prompt, type CON, a space, and the number of the remote bit
you wish to control (1–16). The meter responds by repeating your command
followed by a colon. At the colon, type the CON subcommand you wish to
perform (see Table 10.19).
The following example shows the steps necessary to pulse Remote Bit 5
(RB05):
=>>CON 5 <Enter>
CONTROL RB5: PRB 5 <Enter>
=>>
You must enter the same remote bit number in both steps in the command. If
the bit numbers do not match, the meter responds with
Invalid Command.
See Remote Control Switches on page 8.4 for more information.
FIL WRITE (Write Settings File)

shows how to send front-port (SET_PF) settings from your computer to the
SEL-734 using HyperTerminal.
In the terminal window type FIL WRITE SET_PF.TXT and press <Enter>.
Click Transfer > Send File and select the directory that contains the settings
