The EnerVista MII SETUP software interface is the preferred method to edit settings and view actual values because the
PC monitor can display more information in a simple comprehensible format.
The following minimum requirements must be met for the EnerVista MII SETUP software to properly operate on a PC:
Pentium® class or higher processor (Pentium® II 300 MHz or higher recommended)
Windows® NT 4.0 (Service Pack 3 or higher), Windows® 2000, Windows® XP
Internet Explorer® 5.0 or higher
64 MB of RAM (128 MB recommended)
40 MB of available space on system drive and 40 MB of available space on installation drive
RS232C serial and Ethernet port for communications to the relay
The ground screw shown in the following figure must be correctly grounded.
If you want to communicate with the relay using a computer through the front serial port, please ensure that the computer
is grounded to the same ground as the relay.
In case of using a portable computer, it is recommended to have it disconnected to its power supply, as in many cases
they are not correctly grounded either due to the power supply itself or to the connector cables used. Powering the
portable PC with its internal battery drastically decreases the possibility of producing permanent damage to the computer
or the relay. Beware of the possibility of losing communication in firmware change processes
This is required not only for personal protection, but also for avoiding a voltage difference between the relay
serial port and the computer port, which could produce permanent damage to the computer or the relay.
GE Multilin will not be responsible for any damage in the relay or connected equipment whenever this elemental
safety rule is not followed.
In case of a firmware flashing process, due to the risk of losing communication, GE Multilin will not be
responsible in case of a communication failure if the relay and PC are not grounded to the same point.
