Step 3. Set the date format:
The relay reports dates in three formats: MDY, YMD, and
DMY (where M = month, D = date, and Y = year).
a. For this procedure type YMD <Enter>.
At each setting in turn, the relay presents the settings
prompt, name, present value, and action prompt.
b. If you make a mistake or want to go backward through
the settings, type the ^ character (on most computer
keyboards, this is a shifted numeral 6) and <Enter>.
Refer to Table 10.5 for this and other navigational aids.
Step 4. Accept the default settings.
If you do not want IRIG, simply press <Enter> to
accept the IRIG-B existing value of NONE.
The relay presents the next setting, which is the
UTCOFF (UTC offset) setting.
Step 5. End the settings session.
a. Type END <Enter> at the UTCOFF action prompt.
(The UTCOFF settings remains unchanged.)
The relay next scrolls a readback of all the Global
settings, eventually displaying the following prompt:
Save settings (Y,N) ? prompt
(In Figure 10.11, a vertical ellipsis represents the relay
information during readback.)
b. Examine the settings readback to verify your new
settings.
c. Answer Y <Enter> to save your new settings.
The TERSE Option
You can avoid viewing the entire class settings summary the relay displays
when you type END <Enter> midway through a settings class or instance.
On slow data speed links, waiting for the complete settings readback can clog
your automation control system or take too much of your time for a few
settings changes. Eliminate the settings readback by appending TERSE to the
SET command.
