Built-In Relay Self-Test -
BIRST
The BIRST facility provides a quick and simple way
of nding relay failures within the module. No test
equipment is required, simply disconnect the UUT
from the module’s connector, launch the BIRST
application and the tool will run a diagnostic test that
will nd all relays with faulty contacts.

Supported by
eBIRST
In addition to BIRST, these modules are also
supported by our eBIRST test tools. These tools
simplify switching system fault-nding by quickly
testing the system and graphically identifying the
faulty relay.
