Daylight Savings Time (DST) Quick Tip: By default, the meter ships with the 2006 United States DST calendar. The meter begins DST on the first Sunday in April at 2:00 a.m.
  • Page 11 .HHF or .CSV format. In addition, third-party meter reading software, such as MV-90 from Itron, can automatically read LDP data from the SEL-734. The data are also available through the SEL YMODEM, Modbus, and DNP protocols. See Section 9, page 13 for details on configuring the SEL-734 for MV-90 compatibility.
  • Page 12 QuickSet meter reports. The FP_DECPL, FP_SCALE, and FP_ Erator DND configuration settings affect the SEL-734 front-panel LCD reports. Refer to Table 2 for details on how these configuration settings scale each communications interface. Number Number Max.
  • Page 13 8. Communications and Protocol Settings The SEL-734 supports the communications protocols listed in Table 3. The Ethernet port supports three simultaneous Modbus TCP or Telnet (SEL ASCII) communications sessions, including one DNP3 LAN/WAN session. Port 4 supports three communications options, but only one is available at a time.
