Settings Database Management and Drivers
Locate and record the Z number (Z003003) in the FID string. The first portion
of the Z number (Z003…) determines the
ACSELERATOR QuickSet relay
settings driver version when you are creating or editing
relay settings files. The
use of the Device Editor driver version will be discussed in more detail later in
this section—see Settings Editor (Editor Mode) on page 3.8. Compare the part
number (
PARTNO=0749MXXXXXXXXXXXXXX) with the Model Option Table (MOT)
to ensure the correct
relay configuration.
Settings Database Management and Drivers
ACSELERATOR QuickSet uses a database to save relay settings. ACSELERATOR
QuickSet contains sets of all settings files for each
relay specified in the
Database Manager. Choose appropriate storage backup methods and a secure
location for storing database files.
Active Database
Change the active database to the one that needs to be modified by selecting
File > Active Database on the main menu bar.
Database Manager
Select File > Database Manager on the main menu bar to create new
databases and manage records within existing databases.
Settings Database
Step 1. Open the Database Manager to access the database. Click File
> Database Manager. A dialog box appears.
The default database file already configured in
ACSELERATOR
QuickSet is Relay.rdb. This database contains example settings
files for the SEL products with which you can use
ACSELERATOR QuickSet.
Step 2. Enter descriptions for the database and for each
relay or relay in
the database in the Database Description and Settings
Description dialog boxes.
Step 3. Enter special operating characteristics that describe the
relay
settings in the Settings Description dialog box. These can
include the protection scheme settings and communications
settings.
Step 4. Highlight one of the
relays listed in Settings in Database and
select the Copy option button to create a new collection of
settings.
ACSELERATOR QuickSet prompts for a new name. Be sure to
enter a new description in Settings Description.
Copy/Move Settings Between Databases
Step 1. Select the Copy/Move Settings Between Databases tab to
create multiple databases with the Database Manager; these
databases are useful for grouping similar protection schemes or
geographic areas.
Step 2. Click the Open B option button to open a
relay database.
