Overview

The SEL-3355 Configurable Label Kit provides the materials and information needed to customize the nameplate area of the front panel. Figure 1 shows the pocket area and opening.

The SEL-3355 comes with a preprinted label. Alternatively, you can write on the back side of the preprinted label, use the blank labels provided in this kit, or print your own customized label.
If you need additional configurable label kits (part number 9260153), contact your Technical Service Center or SEL to obtain these kits (see Technical Support on page 2).

Removing Labels

Use the label removal tool to remove the label from the front-panel pocket.
Step 1. Slide the tip of the tool under the label at the pocket opening (see Figure 1 for the opening location).
Step 2. Push the exposed edge of the label against the label removal tool while pulling out both the label and label removal tool.

Creating Laser-Printed Labels

NOTE: The default template font is from the Arial family. You can use this font or choose a different font that is available on your computer system.
NOTE: You can adjust the font size to accommodate more text within the cell.

Use the following procedure to create a laser-printed label(s). You can find label template files on the SEL website (selinc.com). In addition, these files are included on the CD in the configurable label kit.
Step 1. Open the appropriate Microsoft Word template.
Step 2. Fill in the field(s).
Use the Tab and Arrow keys or your mouse to move from field to field.
Field space is limited; only the text that displays on the screen prints on the label.
Save the file often to preserve your work in progress.

NOTE: Place the perforated stock sheet in the printer tray as indicated by the printer (either face up or face down).
Also, if your printer has the duplex capability, be sure to set the printer to print single-sided.

Step 3. Test the position of the label text.
a. Print the template file on plain paper.
b. Examine the printed sheet for proper alignment. Carefully compare the printed page to the perforated stock sheets.
c. If the printed sheet is not aligned properly, proceed to Step 4.
d. If the label(s) appears as desired, proceed to Step 5.
Step 4. Make adjustments to margin settings, as necessary, to print in the proper location on the test sheet.
a. Use the Page Setup dialog box to adjust only the top or left margins as needed to correct the alignment.
DO NOT adjust the right or bottom margins.
b. Do another test print on plain paper.
c. Examine the label position.
d. Repeat as necessary until the alignment is correct.
Save the file often to preserve your work in progress.
Step 5. Print the label(s) on the perforated stock sheets.
If the label(s) are printed incorrectly, repeat this procedure beginning with Step 3.
Step 6. Fold and tear the perforated edges of the stock paper to remove the label(s) from the sheet.
Step 7. Remove the existing label from the front-panel label pocket with the label removal tool.
Step 8. Insert the newly created label in the pocket on the front panel.
