Date Code 20150130 Instruction Manual SEL-787 Relay
Appendix B
Firmware Upgrade Instructions
Instruction Manual
Overview
These firmware upgrade instructions apply to all SEL-700 series industrial
products except the SEL-701 Relay and SEL-734 Meter.
SEL occasionally offers firmware upgrades to improve the performance of
your relay. Because the SEL-787 relays store firmware in flash memory,
changing physical components is not necessary. Upgrade the relay firmware
by downloading a file from a personal computer to the relay via the front-
panel serial port via
ACSELERATOR QuickSet or terminal emulator as outlined
in the following sections. For relays with IEC 61850 option, verify IEC 61850
protocol after the upgrade (see Relays With IEC 61850 Option).
Required Equipment
Gather the following equipment before starting this firmware upgrade:
➤ Personal computer (PC)
➤ Terminal emulation software that supports Xmodem/CRC or
1k Xmodem/CRC protocol
➤ Serial communications cable (SEL Cable C234A or equivalent,
or a null-modem cable)
➤ Disk containing the firmware upgrade file (for example,
r1017xxx.s19 or r1017xxx.z19)
➤ ACSELERATOR QuickSet Software
NOTE: Firmware releases are also
available as zip files (.z19). Use the zip
file for faster download.
