2-2.1 INTERNAL BATTERY POWER
A 9-volt battery compartment with a slide out access
cover located on the back of the device provides easy
access to an internal 9-volt battery (Figure 2-4). The
number of continuous operation hours the 9-volt battery
will support depends upon the type of battery used.
Refer to Table 2.2 for information about battery choices.
When an auxiliary power supply is not being used, the
programmer will automatically turn off to save battery
power or provide an indication of insufficient power
under the following conditions:
1. The programmer turns itself off when the battery
power available is not sufficient to carry out all programmer functions, including both powering of the
programmer and the trip unit. When this occurs the
battery should be replaced.
Figure 2-4 OPTIMizer Battery Compartment with
Battery Installed
2. If none of the pushbuttons on the operator panel are
used for approximately 2 1/2 minutes, the programmer turns itself off. This includes the performance of
a non-trip test. External power is required to perform
a trip test. Refer to the next paragraph for external
power details.
2-2.2 EXTERNAL CONNECTIONS
Three receptacles are provided on the top of the device,
one for an external power connection and two different
means for connecting the programmer to the trip unit
(Figure 2-2).
External Power Connection
Use external power to:
• Save internal battery power
• Perform trip test on circuit breaker
• Communicate over INCOM
External power is provided by connecting an Auxiliary
Power Module (Catalog Number PRTAAPM) to the
OPTIMizer through the 2-pin male receptacle. The
Auxiliary Power Module requires a 120 Vac 50/60 Hz
input and delivers a 32 Vdc 4 VA output (Figures 2-2
and 2-5). Note that OPTIM trip units with external
power connections (K, L and N) operate from a 24 Vdc
power source.
Figure 2-5 Auxiliary Power Module Shown Connected
to OPTIMizer
Direct Breaker Connection
The first method for connecting the hand held programmer to the trip unit is by means of the 8 conductor custom phone cord provided with the programmer. One end
plugs into the front panel of the trip unit and the other
end into a custom phone jack port (HDR1) on the top of
the programmer. This direct connection is intended only
for use with the hand held programmer, and is normally
associated with the direct programming of individual trip
units (Figures 1-1, 2-2 and 2-6).
Network Connection
The second means for connecting the hand held programmer is through the 3-pin male connector (J2) located on the top of the programmer. This connection is
made through an INCOM shielded twisted-pair. The
hand held programmer has an internal INCOM transformer permitting it to communicate over the network.
This is the method normally associated with network programming (Figure 2 - 2). Auxiliary power to the OPTIMizer
is required to communicate over the INCOM network.
Notice: A direct connection will override an INCOM
connection. This will also signal a no response
alarm on other network devices.

2-3 OPERATOR PANEL
The operator panel provides a means to initially assign
addresses, select baud rates, configure trip units, display information, and perform testing (Figure 2-1). For
the purpose of familiarization, the panel is divided into
two sub-sections:
• Pushbuttons
• Display
2-3.1 PUSHBUTTONS
The operator panel contains eight membrane pushbuttons. Pushbuttons generally accomplish their function
when pressed and released. Variations in the use of a
particular pushbutton are detailed in the description for
that particular pushbutton. The pushbuttons are categorized as follows:
• General Pushbuttons
• View Functions Pushbuttons
• Edit Values Pushbuttons
Figure 2-7 General Pushbuttons
On/Off Pushbutton
The On/Off pushbutton turns the hand held programmer
on and off. To achieve power-up, the pushbutton must
be pushed and held for approximately one second. The
programmer cannot be turned off while Find Baud/Addr
is displayed. When the programmer is on, power is
delivered to the trip unit.
Save Pushbutton
The Save pushbutton is used in conjunction with the
Select pushbutton to cause any programmer initiated
change to be saved to memory. The Save pushbutton
must be pressed and held followed by depression of the
Select pushbutton to accomplish the saving function.
Changes must be saved individually before moving to
another menu. This feature minimizes the possibility that
re-programming would be required if the programmer
turns itself off during the programming process.
2-3.3 VIEW FUNCTIONS PUSHBUTTONS
(Figure 2-8)
2-3.2 GENERAL PUSHBUTTONS
(Figure 2-7)
Select Pushbutton
The Select pushbutton performs two functions. First, it is
used in conjunction with the Save pushbutton to save
Effective 8/99
I.B. 29C892B
changes to memory as previously described. In addition,
the Select pushbutton by itself causes the programmer to
select a particular category indicated by the blinking cursor and move further into that particular selected menu.
Up-Arrow Pushbutton
The Up-Arrow pushbutton is used to move the blinking
cursor back to the first selection Select Address (SA)
when the programmer is displaying the top level menu
(Figure 2-9). It is similar to the Escape Key of a PC. If
the programmer is displaying a lower level menu, use of
this pushbutton moves the display back one menu level,
eventually ending at SA.
Right-Arrow Pushbutton
The Right-Arrow pushbutton moves the blinking cursor
horizontally to the right in the display from category to
category. Continued use of this pushbutton will wrap
around and eventually return to the starting category.
Left-Arrow Pushbutton
The Left-Arrow pushbutton performs the same function
as the previously described Right-Arrow pushbutton
except movement of the blinking cursor is horizontally to
the left.

2-3.5 DISPLAY
N o t i c e : This manual utilizes a gray rectangular box
underlined in black to represent a blinking
cursor in all illustrations of the programmer’s
display (Figure 2-9).
A 2-line, 16-character per line liquid crystal display is

I.B. 29C892B
sages. The brightness of the display can be adjusted
through the use of a small, recessed adjusting screw
located in the top side of the programmer (Figure 2-2).
The first line of the display is normally used to show the
main menu selection possibilities. A blinking cursor indicates which category on the first line is active. The second line of the display either defines the first line category highlighted by the blinking cursor or, in lower level
menus, presents a field that is capable of being changed,
as indicated by a blinking cursor. Note in Figure 2 - 9 t h a t
the blinking cursor is positioned just to the left of S A i n
the top line of the display. Note also that the second display line defines that category as Select Address. Table2 . 1 outlines all the displayed menu items that can be
encountered in the OPTIMizer display along with their
specific definitions. Figure 2 - 1 1 shows the twelve avail-
able options accessible from the main menu.

SECTION 3: OPERATION AND USE
3-1 GENERAL
This section specifically describes the effective operation
and functional use of the OPTIMizer Hand Held Programmer. The OPTIMizer is used to access the many
capabilities of OPTIM 550, 750 and 1050 Trip Units.
Specific details associated with the trip units are covered
in Instruction Book 29C891 entitled “Instructions for
Installation, Operation and Maintenance of CutlerHammer Digitrip OPTIM Trip Units.” It is recommended
that the operator review the material presented in
Section 2 prior to operating and using the hand held prog r a m m e r .
Familiarization with the information presented in Table
2 . 1 will prove helpful. Table 2 . 1 outlines the menu items
accessed from the top level menu (Figure 2 - 9). Menu
item definitions are provided in the user friendly display
with additional explanatory information provided in Table
2 . 1. In addition, an OPTIMizer Menu Diagram provides
an overall picture of the device’s capabilities (Figure 3 - 1) .
This diagram is also shown on the OPTIMizer back
panel for quick and easy reference (Figure 2 - 4) .
Section 3 covers the operation and use of the OPTIMizer.
It is broken down into the following general categories:
• Getting Started
• Power Application
• Security Password
• Assign Address/Select Baud Rate
• Configure Trip Unit
• Displayed Information
• Test Trip Unit
3-2 GETTING STARTED
The OPTIMizer Hand Held Programmer is a simple to
use device. Before applying power and using the
device, it is recommended that the following preliminary
steps be taken:
Step 1: If the programmer is to be operated by battery
power only, be sure that a fresh battery is
properly installed. Refer to paragraph 2-2.1 for
battery information.
Step 2: If power will be supplied by an Auxiliary Power
Module, be certain that the Auxiliary Power
Module is connected to the appropriate 120
Vac source and the OPTIMizer Hand Held
Programmer. Refer to paragraph 2-2.2 for
details on an external power connection.
Notice: Keep in mind that an Auxiliary Power Module
is always required if a “Trip” Test is to be performed on a circuit breaker.
Step 3: When a Direct Breaker Connection is being
made, plug either end of the custom phone
cord into the phone jack port on the top of the
programmer first, and then plug the other end
into the port provided on the trip unit. The connections should be made before power is
applied. Refer to paragraph 2-2.2 for details on
a Direct Breaker Connection.
Notice: A direct breaker connection will override an
INCOM connection. This will also signal a no
response alarm on other network devices.
Clear the alarms when finished.
Step 4: If a Network Connection is being made using
an INCOM twisted-pair connection to the 3-pin
connector located on the top of the programmer, refer to paragraph 2-2.2 for details on a
Network Connection.
Step 5: No matter which connection approach is used,
be certain that all plug-in connections are
properly seated. This includes trip unit, external power and INCOM connections to the programmer as well as connections from the programmer to the trip unit or INCOM.
The programmer is now ready to have power applied.
3-3 POWER APPLICATION
Turn the programmer on by holding the red On/Off
pushbutton in the depressed position for approximately
one second. Upon release of the pushbutton, the first
message will be displayed.
Three different types of messages can be displayed
before the top level menu appears (Figure 2-9). The
messages displayed will depend on the programmer
connection or lack of a proper connection as follows:
• If the programmer detects the lack of a proper connection, two consecutive messages will be displayed.
Figure 3-2 shows the first message displayed while
the programmer searches for a compatible device. If
the programmer is unable to make a connection,
Figure 3-3 shows the second message that appears
momentarily before the top level main menu is displayed (Figure 2-9).

FIND BAUD/ADDR
** WORKING **
Figure 3-2 Initial Power Application Message Display
• If the programmer is connected to an INCOM Network,
the message shown in Figure 3 - 2 will first be displayed
followed by the INCOM message shown in Figure 3 - 4.
The top level menu will then be displayed (Figure 2 - 9) .
• If the programmer is successful in its device search,
the same in progress type message is displayed as
shown in Figure 3-2. Refer to Figure 3-5 for a typical
baud rate and address message momentarily displayed once the trip unit is identified. The top level
main menu is ultimately displayed and the programmer is ready for use (Figure 2-9).
3-4 FUNCTION OVERVIEW
3-4.1 SELECT ADDRESS (SA)
The Select Address menu item is used when it is
desired to communicate over the 3-pin INCOM connection to an OPTIM trip unit. The address of the breaker
you desire to communicate to is entered here. Note that
an auxiliary power module must be plugged into the
OPTIMizer for the OPTIMizer’s INCOM transceiver to
work. Selectable addresses are in the range 001-FFE
hexadecimal (001 to 4094 decimal).
This menu item is used to retrieve the address and baud
rate of the OPTIM trip unit connected to the OPTIMizer’s
custom phone cord. The OPTIMizer executes this function automatically when the OPTIMizer is first turned on.
Several attempts will be made to retrieve the address
and baud rate. If no trip unit is connected to the
OPTIMizer at the time the OPTIMizer is turned on,
an error message will be displayed.
3-4.3 FIND PRODUCT ID (ID)
The breaker frame type is displayed when this menu
item is selected.
3-4.4 CHANGE BAUD/ADDR (BA)
The baud rate of the trip unit can be changed to that of
the system by using this menu item. The baud rate is
programmable to either 1200 or 9600 baud. All breakers
connected together on a line must communicate at the
same baud rate.
The address of a given breaker can be changed by
using this menu item. Valid addresses of 001-FFE
Hexadecimal (001 to 4094 decimal) can be used, however, when OPTIM trip units are connected to a Breaker
Interface Module (BIM) the range of usable addresses is
from 1-32 hexadecimal (1-50 Decimal).
3-4.5 RATING PLUG (RP)
The rating plug installed in a trip unit can be read using

3-4.11 CAUSE OF TRIP (CT)
The OPTIMizer can display the cause of trip, similar
to the cause of trip LEDs of the trip unit, but in some
cases with more specific information. This information is
available as long as the trip unit Reset pushbutton has
not been pressed after a trip condition. For example, a
non-compliant rating plug may cause an instantaneous
trip to occur which will light the Instantaneous LED of
the trip unit. However, the OPTIMizer in this case
would display that the instantaneous trip is a result of
a Bad Plug.

3-6 ASSIGN ADDRESS/SELECT BAUD RATE
The OPTIMizer Hand Held Programmer must be used
to initially establish the baud rates and unique addresses of connected circuit breakers. Assigning or changing
circuit breaker addresses and/or baud rates takes place
within the same category of the main menu, ChangeBaud/Addr (BA). Each circuit breaker must have a
unique address with all addresses containing three digits. The three digit address will be in a HEXADECIMAL
Format with choices of 0 through 9 and A through F.
The two baud rate choices are 1200 or 9600, displayed
as 96B or 12B.
Notice: All circuit breakers are supplied from the facto-
ry with a 9600 baud rate “96B” and an address
of “FFE” (Hex Form) already programmed.
Keep in mind, however, when assigning
addresses, the Breaker Interface Module will
only recognize addresses at or below 32 HEX
(two digits).

Notice: Keep in mind that a change in the baud rate
and/or address is password protected. Step 5
may require the entry of a valid password
before any changes are accepted. If the programmer was already turned on, and a valid
password was initially entered as described in
paragraph 3-4 Method 1, entry of a password
will not be required again and the baud rate
and/or address changes will be saved. If a
valid password was not initially entered, the
display will require the entry of a valid password before any changes can be saved (Figure
3-8). Follow the steps outlined in paragraph 34 Method 2 to enter a valid password.
Notice: Any time a circuit breaker address or baud rate
is changed, verify that the correct address and
baud rate are displayed by using the Right-Arrow or Left Arrow p u s h b u t t o n s to move the

3-9 TEST TRIP UNIT
Digitrip OPTIM 550, 750 and 1050 Trip Units contain a
test capability. One of the means for performing tests is
through the use of the OPTIMizer Hand Held Programmer. The intent is to permit the periodic performance of
tests that verify the functional performance of the trip
unit. Two types of testing are possible through the use
of the OPTIMizer Hand Held Programmer, the “No-Trip”
and the “Trip” tests.
No-Trip Test: This test can be performed using the
internal battery power of the programmer. It verifies that
the trip unit is performing under test within acceptable
limits of the programmed protective setpoints.
Trip Test: This test can only be performed using external power supplied by an Auxiliary Power Module or by
auxiliary power supplied to the circuit breaker. The additional power is required to activate the breaker’s flux
transfer shunt trip. This test verifies the trip unit’s performance, as well as the trip circuitry and mechanical operation of the circuit breaker.
Notice: Keep in mind that an Auxiliary Power Module is
required to perform a “Trip” test. Refer to paragraph 2-2.2 for details on the use of an
Auxiliary Power Module.
Notice: Basic protection functions are not affected dur-
ing the performance of testing procedures.
Proceed with the following steps to perform a “Trip” or a
“No-Trip” test:
Step 1: With the programmer turned on and the main
menu displayed, use the Right-Arrow or Left-Arrow pushbuttons to move the blinking cursor
to Test Mode (TM) (Figure 3-26).
Step 2: Use the Select pushbutton to enter the Test
Mode (TM). The blinking cursor indicates
which test category is active and able to be
selected (Figure 3-27).
Step 3: Use the Right-Arrow or Left-Arrow pushbut-
tons, if required, to move the blinking cursor to
a different test category. Use the Select push-
Effective 8/99
Page 22
I.B. 29C892B
button to choose a particular category, Phase
for example, and the next selections are displayed Trip or No Trip (Figure 3-28).
Step 4: Once again, use the Right-Arrow or Left-
Arrow pushbuttons, if required, to move to a
different test category. Use the Select pushbutton to choose a particular category, Trip for
example, and two different notices are momentarily displayed before the next selection
appears (Figures 3-29 and 3-30).
Step 5: After the two momentary displays, the test cur-
rent screen is displayed permitting the selection of the desired test current (Figure 3-31).
Step 6: The blinking cursor indicates the selectable test
current field. The current initially displayed is
the minimum test current value. Use the U p o rDown pushbuttons to alter the current value.
Step 7: Once all the test parameters have been select-
ed, hold Save pushbutton depressed and
depress Select pushbutton to initiate the test.
When the test is completed, a cause of trip
message is displayed (Figure 3-32).
3-10.1 USING THE COPY COMMAND (CP)
Plug the OPTIMizer into the trip unit that the settings are
to be copied from. Move the cursor to the main menu
item CP. Press the Select key and wait while the
OPTIMizer reads the trip unit’s setpoints. The message
Accepted will be displayed if the copy was successfully
completed. The settings are now stored within the
OPTIMizer's memory and will be retained even after the
OPTIMizer is turned off.
3-10.2 USING THE DOWNLOAD COMMAND (DL)
Plug the OPTIMizer into the trip unit that the stored
settings are to be downloaded to. Enter the password
for the OPTIMizer within the password main menu item
PA. Move the cursor to the main menu item DL. Press
the Select key and wait while the OPTIMizer gets the
address of the trip unit and then downloads the
OPTIMizer's stored settings to the trip unit. If the
OPTIMizer’s password was not entered, the operator
will be required to first enter their password and then
reselect the Download menu item from the main menu.
The message Accepted will be displayed if the settings
were successfully downloaded.
Step 8: Use the Up-Arrow pushbutton to return to the
main menu.
Testing will not be permitted to proceed if there is
greater than 0.4 per unit of current flowing on a phase
circuit or 0.2 per unit of current on a ground circuit. The
maximum permitted current value can be determined by
multiplying the appropriate per unit value (0.4 or 0.2)
times the ampere rating of the installed rating plug.
Notice: For currents less than the trip unit setpoint, no
message is displayed after the “Accepted
Message.” The trip unit will not be placed in a
Test Mode and, therefore, no pickup LEDs will
flash. The trip unit, however, must be reset.
The OPTIMizer will eventually return to the
main menu.
3-10 COPY AND DOWNLOAD COMMANDS
The OPTIMizer can quickly download trip unit setpoints
from one breaker to other breakers in a system. The
per-unit values (not the current ampere values) are
copied from one breaker and downloaded to any other
breaker in the OPTIM family within a system. The settings are permanently retained in the memory of the
OPTIMizer until another copy sequence replaces them.
Notice: The Copy /Download commands will not
change factory enabled functions such as
ground fault trip or alarm. When copying from a
trip unit with ground fault trip to a trip unit with
ground fault alarm, only the pick-up, slope, and
time adjustments are copied.
Some breakers such as the DS will have setting limitations based on the rating plug value. If settings are
downloaded which are not within the allowable limits of
the trip unit and rating plug, an error message will be
displayed. See I.L. 29C891 Table 3.3 for allowable settings. This may also be the case for ground fault settings in breakers above 1200 amps.
3-11 RESET TRIP UNIT (RE)
The trip unit status indicators are generally reset by
pressing the Reset pushbutton on the trip unit. In some
instances, such as when a motor operator is used with
on an OPTIM breaker, it may be desirable to use a
remote reset. The reset trip feature is used in this case.
