This option shows all protection elements available in the relay as shown in the following two tables (exact menu depends 
on firmware version).
For firmware versions below 7.50, each gr oup of protection elements includes the specific protection units of the same 
type. For example phase currents group includ es TOC, IOC, directional units, etc. There are three groups available, so there 
are three protection units of each function that  can work in grouped mode or ungrouped (altogether).

SYSTEM SETUP
General Settings This screen describes and enables the settings of the power system where the relay 
op
erates. Some of these settings are used only for metering values presentation purposes; 
however, some of them apply directly to the sampling and analog-digital conversion 
process (rated frequency setting). Therefore, these settings need to be adjusted to f it the 
system settings.  
Flex Curves Flex Curves – Programmable user curves: The relay incorporates 4 user curves called Flex 
C
urve A, B, C and D. The points for these curves are def ined by the user in  Setpoint > 
System Setup > Flex Curves > Edit Curve  menu in EnerVista 650 Setup. User def ined flex 
curves can be selected as an operation curve in all the time overcurrent functions in the 
relay.
Breaker Breaker Conf iguration
Switchgear: Conf iguration of snapshot events for each switchgear (enable or disable)
Miscellaneous Settings This screen contains settings related with relay working mode. Out of service setting, 
Loc
al/Remote mode and Active language mode are options listed below. 
Breaker settingsBreaker settings, maintenance and switchgear selection of the device conf igured as breaker in the F650. The 
selected switchgear is used in recloser, breaker failure and synchronism functions. The settings are Number of 
Switchgear, Maximum KI2t , KI2t Integ. T ime, Maximum Openings, Max.Openings 1 hour and Snapshot Events.
Breaker maintenance These settings correspond to the initialization of (KI)2t counters, and the counting of number of openings and 
closings of the switchgear conf igured as breaker. These Counters allow the breaker Maintenance. They are 
used to cumulate the breaker ageing produced by a trip or a breaker opening. In order to incorporate the 
breaker historic, in case of existing breakers, the system allows assigning an initial value to accumulated 
amperes, and to the number of opening and closing operations.
