DIGSI 4 - Generate Copies/Variants

A selected relay can be copied:

„Edit > Copy“ and „Edit > Paste“
The new relay comes up
Note: The new relay has a new internal address. Original and
copy are different.

For a selected relay a variant can be generated:

„Edit > Create variant“
The new relay variant comes up.
Note: The variant has the same address like the original relay.
Original and variant are not different!

© Siemens AG 2008
Energy Automation Energy Sector
DIGSI 4 - Copy vs. Variant

A relay must be copied, when there are two or more relays of the
same type and the parameters should be copied.
In this case the new relay must be initialized first (to get a new
internal address).

For a relay a variant must be created, when multiple parameter

settings are required for one relay.
The relay has to be initialized only once, because the variants have
all the same address.

 Create a new variant of your relay (in „Region North“): „My relay 1“.
Change one parameter.
 Export the variant into the file system („Myrelay1.dex“ on
„C:\Floppy“).
 Import the exported file as a SIPROTEC 4 variant: „My relay 2“.
 Change the parameterization of the original relay.
 Import the exported file directly as SIPROTEC 4 relay and replace
the original relay.
