MM300 MOTOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
This section provides an overview of the interfacing methods available with the MM300
using the EnerVista MM300 Setup software. For additional details on interface parameters
(for example, settings, actual values, etc.), refer to the individual chapters.
Although settings can be entered manually using the control panel keys, a PC can be used
to download values through the communications port. The EnerVista MM300 Setup
software is available from GE Multilin to make this as convenient as possible. With
EnerVista MM300 Setup running, it is possible to:
• Program and modify settings
• Load and save setting files to and from a disk
• Read actual values
• Monitor status
• Read pre-trip data and event records
• Get help on any topic
• Upgrade the MM300 firmware
The EnerVista MM300 Setup software allows immediate access to all MM300 features with
easy to use pull down menus in the familiar Windows environment. This section provides
the necessary information to install EnerVista MM300 Setup, upgrade the relay firmware,
and write and edit setting files.
The EnerVista MM300 Setup software can run without a MM300 connected to the
computer. In this case, settings may be saved to a file for future use. If an MM300 is
connected to a PC and communications are enabled, the MM300 can be programmed
from the setting screens. In addition, measured values, status and trip messages can be
displayed with the actual value screens.
The following requirements must be met for the EnerVista MM300 Setup software.
• Windows 7, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10 is installed and running properly.
The EnerVista MM300 Setup software can be installed from either the GE EnerVista CD or
the GE Multilin website at www.gegridsolutions.com/Multilin.
When the Setup Software is installed on the Windows 2000 or XP operating system, and
the device is power recycled while the native USB port is still connected to the PC, the USB
driver in the PC Program may get lost and the setup software may fail to recognize the
USB device. If this happens, the 'MM300 USB Serial Emulation (COM #)' will be missing in the
Setup Software's Device Setup window. To overcome the problem:
1. Remove the USB cable from the native port of the device.
2. Wait for 20 Seconds and connect the cable back to the native port of the device.
