12.9.6. Flex interface
Flex interfaces are electronic units that can be installed on DIN rail, with analog and/or digital inputs and
outputs that can be connected to the PR121/P relay via Local Bus.
The Flex Interface family for PR121/P relays consists of the MM030 module (connected on one side to
the Local Bus of the relay and on the other to all the modules used) and AD series modules. If connected
to MM030, the HMI030 module is also part of the Flex Interface family.
All the confi gurations and connection solutions are described in the dedicated operation manuals (as
shown in the attached table).
Auxiliary power supply for the relay and Flex Interface is required for this function.

HMI030 Display
Displays the data received
from the relay or MM030
note 1: after being confi gured in the
appropriate way, it can be connected
to the relay or straight to the MM030

note 2: the HMI030 can be connected to MM030 from
MM030 software releases 2.0 onwards
12.9.6.1. Notes about the HMI030 and Flex Interface connection
Relay connection for HMI030 or Flex Interface units must be made with a shielded stranded two-wire cable (BELDEN 3105A for
example) up to 15 m in length. The shield must be earthed on both the circuit-breaker and unit sides.
12.9.7. Ekip Connect
Ekip Connect is a software application for personal computers equipped with the Microsoft Windows® operating system, which
allows data to be exchanged with one or more ABB low voltage devices.
Ekip Connect can be connected to ABB low voltage circuit-breakers equipped with electronic protection relays for the purpose of:
- Putting the CB into service.
- Monitoring the state of all the available signals.
- Reading information (alarms, measurements, parameters).
- Modifying the confi guration parameters, especially for protection relays without displays.
- Executing commands.
- Troubleshooting for the relay and communication network.
- Performing tests.
Operating tests in switchboards are facilitated since the parameters and test reports can be saved.
Ekip Connect is free of charge and is either supplied on an installation CD or can be obtained from the Internet address http://
bol.it.abb.com in the section “Work Tools - Software for moulded case and air circuit-breakers”.
