SPEAR™ Single-Phase Recloser System
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
MN280048EN June 2016
CONTROL OK: This indicator illuminates to indicate that the
control passed self-diagnostics and is capable of normal
operation.
otee:
N
A flashing CONTROL OK LED indicates a problem
with user settings. Default settings will be displayed
under these circumstances, but protection has been
disabled. User protection profile settings must be
reconfigured to enable protection.
When the CONTROL OK LED is flashing, the
following message appears on the LCD display upon
power-up:
Protection Off. Change protec. setting. Use ESC to
clear message.
As soon as the HMI goes into power save mode
(inactivity for 15 minutes) the message will no longer
display on the LCD, but the CONTROL OK LED will
continue to flash to indicate protection is disabled.
AC POWER: This indicator is illuminated when the presence
of AC input power to the control is sensed.
BATTERY: This LED illuminates to indicate battery voltage is
low or the battery failed a battery test.
Data port
The DATA PORT section (Figure 6) on the front operating
panel allows for direct connection to a personal computer.

DATA PORT section
The USB data port is a client port used to communicate
with the control from a personal computer. This port is used
for accessing the control with ProView NXG application
software. All settings, metering, alarms, and events are
available from this port. The USB data port can be accessed
either by user supplied USB cable, or purchased from the
factory (part number KSPRC-66).
Operating panel
TRIP (lockout) membrane pushbutton
The TRIP pushbutton (Figure 7) provides front-panel access
to trip (lockout) the recloser. When pressed, the TRIP
pushbutton opens the recloser and locks out the control.
Control power is required for the TRIP button to issue a
command to the recloser.
CLOSE membrane pushbutton
When pressed, the CLOSE pushbutton (Figure 7) returns
the control to the initial or home sequence position, closing
the recloser. The control is ready for the start of a new trip/
close sequence.
otee:
N
Pressing the CLOSE pushbutton from the Lockout
position initiates Cold Load Pickup (CLPU) protection,
if the feature is enabled, and the recloser has been
open longer than the CLPU minimum open time.
HOT LINE TAG ON/OFF membrane pushbutton and LED
indicator
WARNING
Hazardous voltage . Do not use Hot Line Tag as a
substitute for a visible disconnect . Always establish
a visible disconnect prior to performing any work
requiring a de-energized line . Failure to comply may
cause death, severe personal injury, or equipment
damage .

IMPORTANT
Hot Line Tag activation does not cause the recloser to trip
open. It only prevents the recloser from closing.
IMPORTANT
Hot Line Tag is intended solely for live-line work applications,
such as maintenance, repairs or improvements to the
distribution system, that occur while the line remains
energized.
Hot Line Tag is provided for live-line work applications. All
closing operations are disabled when the Hot Line Tag
feature is activated.
Hot Line Tag prevents all closing attempts from the control
and shifts protection to one trip-to-lockout on the composite
curve of the Hot Line Tag definite time and the TCC1 curve
(whichever is faster). Hot Line Tag takes precedence over
Cold Load Pickup, Non-Reclosing, and Fast Trips Disabled.
Hot Line Tag is activated from either the operator panel
membrane pushbutton, local, or remote. All sources must
be off to de-activate Hot Line Tag.
To activate the function from the operator panel, press the
HOT LINE TAG membrane pushbutton. See Figure 7. The
LED indicator circle that surrounds the button illuminates
when the function is active.
The Hot Line Tag function may only be reset by the source
which initiates it. For example, if Hot Line Tag is activated at
the operator panel, the reset function is only possible at the
operator panel.
