2 Configuring the Device

To configure the fault locator:

1. Select Fault Locator Setup from the Meter Setup menu.

2. Select desired options.

3. For two-ended fault location, specify the network address and port of the remote device

located at the opposite side of a power line. Notice that the remote device is always

listening on UDP port 502. If you use another port for communications, ensure that your

remote router or firewall makes local remapping to port 502.

In the event of Ethernet communications between the devices with a stable message

propagation time along the network, you can instruct the device to synchronize its local

time with the remote device clock via the network before the fault data exchange takes

place. This eliminates the need of precise clock synchronization between the devices via

GPS.

4. Check the "Locator Enabled" box to enable fault locator operation.
