3.6 Ancillary Equipment
The Argus can be interrogated locally or remotely by making connection to the fibre optic terminals on the rear of
the case. For local interrogation a portable PC with a fibre to RS232 modem is required. The PC must be capable
of running Microsoft Windows 98 or greater, and it must have a standard RS232 port, a USB- RS232 adaptor, or
a suitable PCMC1A RS232 adaptor can be used in order to drive the modem. The Reydisp communications
package can then be used to interrogate the relay using the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol. For remote
communications more specialised equipment is required see
Section 4: Communications Interface

Technical Reference
section of this manual.
