CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS
Some relay messaging characteristics can be modified to suit different situations using the display properties settings.
— This setting selects the language used to display settings, actual values, and targets. This setting displays
LANGUAGE
when a language other than English was purchased, and the range depends on the order code of the relay.
For Japanese, the settings display in Japanese on the graphical front panel, while the keys printed on the panel are in
English.
For Japanese and Chinese, up to 10 characters can be input in a field on the graphical front panel, not 20.
With the graphical front panel, the language can be changed regardless of the language purchased. That is, all languages
can be used. If you select a language with which you are unfamiliar and want to switch back to English for example, the
menu order remains the same. That is, Settings is always second, Product Setup is always first, Display Properties is always
second, and Language is always first.
If the language is changed after entering user-configured names, such as relay names, the strings are not translated. For
example, a relay name is entered in English, the language is changed to Japanese, and the relay name remains in English.
Set the language before changing settings.
The language can be selected also for the front panel in EnerVista under Maintenance > Change Front Panel.
The language of the EnerVista software can be changed under View > Language.
— Flash messages are status, warning, error, and information messages displayed in response to

certain key presses during settings programming. These messages override any normal messages. Use this setting to
change the duration of flash messages on the display.
— If the keypad is inactive for a period of time, the relay automatically reverts to a default
DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT
message. The inactivity time is modified using this setting to ensure that messages remain on the screen long enough
during programming or reading of actual values. This setting is not supported on the graphical front panel.
— To extend phosphor life in the vacuum fluorescent display, the brightness can be

settings are not supported on the graphical front panel.
— This setting modifies the current cut-off threshold. Very low currents (1 to 2% of the rated value)
CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL
are very susceptible to noise. Some customers prefer very low currents to display as zero, while others prefer the current to
display even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The L60 applies a cut-off value to the magnitudes
and angles of the measured currents. If the magnitude is below the cut-off level, it is substituted with zero. This applies to
phase and ground current phasors as well as true RMS values and symmetrical components. The cut-off operation applies
to quantities used for metering, protection, and control, as well as those used by communications protocols. Note that the
cut-off level for the sensitive ground input is 10 times lower that the
samples available via oscillography are not subject to cut-off.
— This setting modifies the voltage cut-off threshold. Very low secondary voltage measurements
VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL
(at the fractional volt level) can be affected by noise. Some customers prefer these low voltages to be displayed as zero,
while others prefer the voltage to be displayed even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The L60
applies a cut-off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured voltages. If the magnitude is below the cut-off level,
it is substituted with zero. This operation applies to phase and auxiliary voltages, and symmetrical components. The cut-off
operation applies to quantities used for metering, protection, and control, as well as those used by communications
protocols. Raw samples of the voltages available via oscillography are not subject to cut-off.
