Date Code 20120126 Instruction Manual SEL-2032 Communications Processor
Section 7
Settings
Introduction
This section provides detailed information about the commands used to
configure and control the SEL-2032 Communications Processor and explains
how you should respond to the SEL-2032 settings prompts. You can also use
this section as a reference to SEL-2032 settings when using the SEL-5020
Settings Assistant software. At the end of this section is a set of tables that list
all settings in the SEL-2032.
SET Commands
Use the SET command variations to configure the SEL-2032. These
commands correspond to the different classes of settings shown in Figure 7.1.
Figure 7.1 also shows how the SET commands relate to specific ports.
The SEL-2032 checks each entry to ensure that it is a valid choice. If it is not,
an “Out of Range” message is generated, and the SEL-2032 prompts for the
same setting again.
When you finish a setting, it is not necessary to scroll through the remaining
settings. Type Y <Enter> to approve the new settings or N <Enter> to abort
setting changes. If you type Y <Enter> and have a setting violation, an error
message is displayed, and the settings prompt moves to the first setting that
affects the failure. If settings are acceptable, the SEL-2032 saves them. While
the active settings are updated, the SEL-2032 port being modified is disabled
and the SALARM bit asserts for one second. In an SEL-2032, SALARM is
assigned to ALARM by default, so the alarm contact will close for one second
unless the ALARM setting has been modified.
When the settings change on a port, that port is reset. If you change the
settings on the current port, the settings become effective after being accepted.
If you change the baud rate, you will have to change the baud rate on your
terminal to match in order to resume communicating with the SEL-2032. You
may not change the settings on a port that is currently communicating
transparently with another port. Also, only one setting session is permitted at
one time; you will receive a message that the SET command is not available if
someone else is using one of the SET commands at the time you send a SET
command.
Use the COPY or SWAP commands to copy and move settings between
ports. Always use the SHOWSET command on ports you copied or swapped
settings on to verify that all port references and messages are correct.
