With display on Default page, by pushing the iTest button 3 information pages are available: protec-

tion unit information, Circuit Breaker information, Last trip information

After a trip, allow the trip page displayed to reset, and to return to the default page

With unit turned OFF, by pushing the iTest Button within 48hours, it is possible to read the last 

event that lead to shutting OFF

ESC

With display on Default page, by pushing the ESC button it is possible to enter in the main menu

Into menu, allow return to the previous level

UP

With display on Default page, by pushing UP or DOWN buttons it is possible to enter in the Current 

Ammeter page

Move into the menu

Change parameters and settings values.

DOWN

WARNING:  For some parameters with a large range, it is possible to hold the button down (UP or DOWN), to 

speed up the modifcation of the value.

12.2.4.  Rating plug

The rating plug is a module used by trip unit to identify the rated current (In) of the CB.

On PR122/VF unit, the removal or exchange of the Rating plug module is not permitted.

12.2.5.  Optional Module

The PR122/VF unit can be connected to two optional module, each in their dedicated socket. 

Both units must be connected with trip unit turned OFF.

Details of the module performances are available starting from para.12.4.

12.2.6.  External Module

The PR122/VF unit can be connected to external temporary module:

• 

The PR030/B unit is a battery unit useful to supply the PR122/VF unit,  and for Trip test from display.

• 

Units BT030-USB and Ekip T&P allow the user to supply and communicate with PR122/VF, using ABB Software Ekip Connect.

More details starting from para12.4.

12.3. User Menu
On the PR122/VF unit display, the user can access to 2 different sectors: the Main Area, and the Menu area.

The Main Area is composed of the default page, the CURRENT MEASUREMENTS page, and the information page.

The pages are available using the iTest Button.

The menu area contains all the sections useful for reading and setting of all protection and parameters, testing of the unit, and  installation.

WARNING:  With the exception of the CURRENT MEASUREMENTS page, the unit will display the Default page 

if no buttons are pressed for 2 minutes.

To access to some areas it is necessary to enter a password (PW); default value of PW: 0001.
