SECTION 8: SERIAL PORT COMMUNICATIONS AND
COMMANDS
I
NTRODUCTION
The SEL-352 Relay is equipped with four serial ports: one EIA-232 port on the front, two
EIA-232 ports on the rear, and one EIA-485 port on the rear. Establish communication by
connecting a terminal to one of the serial ports with the appropriate cable. Connect computers,
modems, protocol converters, printers, an SEL-2020 or an SEL-2030 Communications
Processor, an SEL-2885, a SCADA serial port, and/or RTUs for local or remote
communications.
Use one of the SEL protocols for communication. The SEL ASCII commands and structure are
defined in detail in this section. Other SEL protocols used for interfacing other intelligent
electronic devices for automated communication are described in detail in the appendices.

OMMUNICATION
Establish communication with the SEL-352 Relay through one of its serial ports by using
standard “off-the-shelf” software and the appropriate cable connections, depending on the
device.
Software
Use any system that emulates a standard terminal system. Such PC-based terminal emulation
programs include: Procomm
®
Plus, Relay/Gold, Microsoft
®
Windows
®
Terminal, Microsoft
®
Windows
®
95 HyperTerminal, SmartCOM, and CROSSTALK
®
. Many terminal emulation
programs will work with the SEL-352 Relay. For the best display, use VT-100 terminal
emulation or the closest variation.
The default communication settings for the serial ports follow:
Baud Rate = 2400
Data Bits = 8
Parity
= N
Stop Bits = 1
RTS/CTS = N
Change the port settings using the front panel or the
SET P <ENTER>
command.
Cables
Connect the SEL-352 Relay to another device using the appropriate cable. The pin definitions
for Port 1, 2, 3, and 4 are given on the relay rear panel and detailed in Table 8.1.
A drawing of the 9-pin port connector and pin definitions appears in Figure 8.1.
