Front-Panel Operations
The front panel makes power system data collection and system control quick
and efficient. Using the front panel, you can analyze power system operating
information, view and change relay settings, and perform relay control
functions. The relay features a straightforward menu-driven control structure
presented on the front-panel liquid crystal display (LCD). Front-panel targets
and other LED indicators give a quick look at the relay’s operation status. You
can perform often-used control actions rapidly by using the large direct-action
pushbuttons. All of these features help you operate the relay from the front
panel and include:
➤ Reading metering
➤ Inspecting targets
➤ Accessing settings
➤ Controlling relay operations
