Activation of the DECS-250 Plugin for BESTCOMSPlus
®
The DECS-250 plugin is a module that runs inside the BESTCOMS
Plus
shell. The DECS-250 plugin
contains specific operational and logic settings for only the DECS-250. Uploading settings to the DECS-
250 is possible only after activating the DECS-250 plugin.
The DECS-250 plugin can be activated automatically or manually. Automatic activation is achieved by
using a USB cable to establish communication between the DECS-250 and BESTCOMS
Plus
. Manual
activation is initiated by contacting Basler Electric for an activation key and entering the key into
BESTCOMS
Plus
. Manual activation is useful if you want to create a settings file prior to receiving your
digital excitation system. Note that if a DECS-250 is not connected, you will not be able to configure
certain Ethernet settings. Ethernet settings can be changed only when an active USB or Ethernet
connection is present. Refer to
Manual Activation of DECS-250 Plugin.
