CONNECTING ENERVISTA 750/760 SETUP TO THE RELAY

Configuring Serial Communications

Before starting, verify that the serial cable is properly connected to either the RS232 port on
the front panel of the device (for RS232 communications) or to the RS485 terminals on the
back of the device (for RS485 communications). See Hardware on page 11 for connection
details.
This example demonstrates an RS232 connection. For RS485 communications, the GE
Multilin F485 converter will be required. Refer to the F485 manual for additional details. To
configure the relay for Ethernet communications, see Configuring Ethernet communications
on page 15.
