4.2.7 TripLink
TripLink is a means of transferring settings from one circuit
breaker to another. TripLink transfers all protection settings
and time and date, and the circuit breaker’s circuit data.
The transfer of these settings may be useful for cloning a
lineup of circuit breakers, cloning a circuit breaker’s
settings for replacing the circuit breaker with its clone for
maintenance purposes, or for making common settings for
a test program.
All INCOM settings including INCOM ADDRESS is
transferred via TripLink. An INCOM network does require a
unique address so the address may later have to be
changed.
The procedure requires a TripLink cable to provide commu-
nication between circuit breakers. The connector with the
labeled end must be plugged into the circuit breaker that
will receive the settings. This cable must be plugged into
the Test Kit pins on the lower left-hand corner on both
circuit breakers and both units must be powered up for the
setting transfer to be successful. If power is not available,
then use separate Auxiliary Power Module Cat. No.
#PRTAAPM and energize the unit by plugging keyed
connector into upper right corner of the Digitrip 1150
(See
Figures: 1.1 and 4.9).

NOTE:
A TripLink cable when installed will disconnect that
unit from the INCOM communication network.
4.2.7.1 Preliminary Requirements
1. Both units must be Digitrip 1150 and both must have
the same Catalog (cat.) number, plug ampere rating for a
successful transfer.
NOTE:
It is recommended that both the sending and
receiving units be the same firmware revision. Three cases
exist:
a. Units with revision 0 are only compatible with other
revision 0 units.
b. Units with revision 9 are only compatible with other
revision 9 units.
c. When transferring settings having different firmware
revisions will transfer all the protection settings properly.
However, the Accessory Bus settings should be verified.
