The LT Pickup setting is set with a rotary switch at the Messenger. This setting applies to the LT 
protection provided by the Messenger and the protection provided by the Entellisys CPU. The 
positions of the rotary switch and LT Pickup settings are shown in Table 5-1.
The delay for the LT protection provided by the Messenger is not user-programmable; it is fixed 
according to the safe operating region for the circuit breaker controlled by the given Messenger. 
The delay for the LT protection provided by the Entellisys CPU is set in the HMI as shown in
