CHAPTER 4: INTERFACES ENERVISTA SOFTWARE INTERFACEG30 GENERATOR PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 4-54Figure 4-2: Protection Summary interface (B30 example shown)4.1.7 Settings templatesSettings file templates simplify the configuration and commissioning of multiple relays that protect similar assets. Anexample is a substation that has 10 similar feeders protected by 10 UR-series F60 relays.In these situations, typically 90% or greater of the settings are identical among devices. The templates allow engineers toconfigure and test these common settings, then lock them so that they are not available to users. For example, lockeddown settings can be hidden from view for field engineers, allowing them to quickly identify and concentrate on specificsettings.The remaining settings (typically 10% or less) can be specified as editable and made available to field engineers installingthe devices. These are settings such as protection element pickup values and CT and VT ratios.The settings template mode allows the user to define which settings are visible in the software.
