UPDATING FIRMWARE AND SOFTWARE
Future enhancements to relay functionality may make a firmware update desirable. Enhancements to
relay firmware typically coincide with enhancements to BESTCOMS software for that relay. When a relay
is updated with the latest version of firmware, the latest version of BESTCOMS software should also be
obtained.
Updating Relay Firmware
If a firmware upgrade is desired, you may request a CD-ROM containing the latest firmware or download
the firmware from the Basler Electric website. Direct your web browser to
http://www.basler.com/BE1_Firm and complete the on line form to request a CD-ROM containing the
latest firmware or a password for downloading firmware from the Basler Electric web site.
Once the appropriate firmware is obtained, it can be uploaded to a relay using the BESTload software
utility provided on the CD-ROM originally supplied with the relay.
Updating BESTCOMS Software
Firmware enhancements often include the addition of relay settings or the modification of existing settings.
BESTCOMS software is revised to accommodate the new or changed settings. When firmware is
updated, the latest version of BESTCOMS should also be obtained. If a CD-ROM was obtained from
Basler Electric, then that CD-ROM will contain firmware and the corresponding version of BESTCOMS
software. BESTCOMS can also be downloaded from the Basler Electric web site (http://www.basler.com).
An on line form can be completed to obtain a password for downloading BESTCOMS from the Basler
Electric web site.
FUNCTIONAL TESTING
NOTE
Functional testing is NOT required for this unit. It is only necessary if the user wants to
perform a comprehensive assessment to determine suitability for an application.
Functional testing provides a comprehensive assessment of this relay to determine suitability for your
application. Functional testing goes beyond the more basic tests found in acceptance testing, but does not
go into the detail for each function as in Commissioning Testing.
Test each of the following functions to verify that this relay measures accurately, is within specified
tolerances, and operates correctly as designed. In addition, these tests are suitable for assisting in
systematic trouble-shooting in the event of a questionable operation. Revisiting a functional test of a
specific function of the relay can help verify whether the relay is indeed operating within the
manufacturer’s specified tolerance. For further assistance, contact Basler Electric, Customer Services
Department.
Phase Differential (87)
Minimum Pickup
Purpose: To verify the minimum pickup of the 87 elements.
Reference Commands: SL-87, S<g>-87, S<g>-TAP87, SG-CT
Step 1.
Connect one current source to terminals B1 and B2 (A-phase, input 1). See Figures 13-1 and
13-2. An ohm-meter or continuity tester may be used to monitor output contact status.
