Mounting

The interface is embedded in the cradle of the MasterPact MTZ circuit breaker.

24 Vdc Power Supply

The interface is powered by the ULP port module.

For more information, refer to ULP System User Guides.

It is recommended to use an UL listed and recognized limited voltage/limited current or a class 2 power supply with a 24 Vdc, 3 A maximum.

NOTE: For 24 Vdc power supply connection, use copper conductors only.

Modbus Address

The interface accepts the Modbus address of the IMU to which it is connected.

The Modbus address is 255 and cannot be changed.

Intrusive Command Mode

The intrusive command mode can be configured with EcoStruxure Power Commission software. This software can enable or disable the ability to send the remote control commands over the Ethernet network to the interface, and to the other modules of the connected IMU.

If the intrusive command mode is Locked, the remote control commands are disabled.
If the intrusive command mode is Unlocked (default setting), the remote control commands are enabled.

NOTE: Whatever is the intrusive command mode, the only remote control command that is always enabled is the Set Absolute Time command.

Reset Button

When the Reset button is pressed for 1–5 seconds, it forces the IP acquisition mode to the default setting (DHCP).

@Updated D1

When the Reset button is pressed for more than 10 seconds, the EIFE interface performs a reset of Security Administrator password to default setting (AAAAAAAA).

@Updated D1

The following procedure describes the steps to reset the Security Administrator password to default setting:

Press the Reset button on the EIFE interface for more than 10 seconds. The LED will blink fast in red (100 ms ON and 100 ms OFF).
After releasing the Reset button, the EIFE interface is in Reset mode for 30 seconds and notifies the user to perform the reset to default settings. The LED will blink fast in red (100 ms ON and 100 ms OFF).
Press the Reset button on the EIFE interface to confirm or wait for 30 seconds to cancel the reset.
After confirming the reset of Security Administrator password, the EIFE interface reboots. All EIFE settings are reset to default settings, except the Reset administrator password counter and the general data.

Cradle Position Contacts

To identify the cradle position of the circuit breaker, the interface has three limit switches.

Limit Switch	Description
CE	Cradle connected position contact
CD	Cradle disconnected position contact
CT	Cradle test position contact
