Rack-Type Breakers Mosaics
The SEL-487E supports the display of rack-type (also
referred to as truck-type) circuit breakers. The rack-type
breakers have three positions: racked out, test, and racked
in. When in the test or racked-in positions, the breaker
can be displayed as open or closed. When racked out, no
breaker open/close display are available. The rack-type
breakers are a display-only functionality and do not impact
any circuit breaker control capabilities.
Status and Trip Target LEDs
The SEL-487E includes programmable status and trip tar-
get LEDs, as well as programmable direct-action control
pushbuttons on the front panel. Figure 12 shows these targets.
The SEL-487E features a versatile front panel that you
can customize to fit your needs. Use SEL
OGIC control
equations and slide-in configurable front-panel labels to
change the function and identification of target LEDs
and operator control pushbuttons and LEDs. The blank
slide-in label set is included with the SEL-487E. You can
use templates supplied with the relay or hand label sup-
plied blank labels and print label sets from a printer.
Alarm Points
You can display messages on the SEL-487E front-panel
LCD that indicate alarm conditions in the power system.
The relay uses alarm points to place these messages on
the LCD.
Figure 19 shows a sample alarm points screen. The relay
can display as many as 66 alarm points. The relay auto-
matically displays new alarm points while in manual-
scrolling mode and in autoscrolling mode. You can con-
figure the alarm points message and trigger it either
immediately by using inputs, communications, or condi-
tionally by using powerful SEL
OGIC control equations.
The asterisk next to the alarm point indicates an active
alarm. Use the front-panel navigation pushbuttons to
clear inactive alarms.
