7. In the Setpoint > Config > CT-VT dialog box, click on Save to save the values into the
MM300 . Click YES to accept any changes and exit the window. Click Restore to retain
previous values. Click Default to restore Default values.
Opening any EnerVista MM300/MM200 Setup file will automatically launch the application
or provide focus to the already opened application. If the file is a Settings file (has a 'M30'
extension) which had been removed from the Settings List tree menu, it will be added back
to the Settings List tree.
New files will be automatically added to the tree.
The EnerVista MM300/MM200 Setup software interface supports three ways of handling
changes to relay settings:
• In off-line mode (relay disconnected) to create or edit relay settings files for later
download to communicating relays.
• Directly modifying relay settings while connected to a communicating relay, then
saving the settings when complete.
• Creating/editing settings files while connected to a communicating relay, then saving
them to the relay when complete.
Settings files are organized on the basis of file names assigned by the user. A Settings file
contains data pertaining to the following types of relay settings:
• Configure
• Protection
• Control
• Security Settings
• Modbus User Map
• FlexLogic
Factory default values are supplied and can be restored after any changes.
The EnerVista MM300/MM200 Setup displays relay setpoints with the same hierarchy as
the front panel display.
Setpoints must be saved to a file on the local PC before performing any firmware
upgrades. Saving Setpoints is also highly recommended before making any Setpoint
changes or creating new Setpoint files.
The Setpoint files in the EnerVista MM300/MM200 Setup window are accessed in the Files
Window. Use the following procedure to download and save Setpoint files to a local PC.
1. Ensure that the site and corresponding device(s) have been properly defined and
configured as shown in Connecting EnerVista MM300/MM200 Setup to the Relay,
above.
2. Select the desired device from the site list.
3. Select the Online > Read Device Settings from Device menu item (at the top of the
page), or right-click on the device and select Read Device Settings to obtain settings
information from the device.
4. After a few seconds of data retrieval, the software will request the name and
destination path of the setpoint file. The corresponding file extension will be
automatically assigned. Press Receive to complete the process. A new entry will be
added to the tree, in the File pane, showing path and file name for the setpoint file.
