b) CONFIGURING SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
Before starting, verify that the serial cable is properly connected to the RS485 terminal on the back of the device. The face-
plate RS232 port is intended for local use and is not described in this section; see the Using the Quick Connect Feature
section.
A computer with an RS232 port and a serial cable is required. To use the RS485 port at the back of the relay, a GE Multilin
F485 converter (or compatible RS232-to-RS485 converter) is required. See the F485 instruction manual for details.
1. Verify that the latest version of the EnerVista UR Setup software is installed (available from the GE EnerVista CD or
online from http://www.gedigitalenergy.com/multilin). See the Software Installation section if not already installed.
2. Connect the computer to the F485 and the F485 to the RS485 terminal on the back of the UR device, or connect
directly the computer to the RS232 port on the front of the relay.
