Application 07/969,731
On pages 7 and 8 of the brief, Appellants argue that
Yalla fails to teach a user interface panel presenting a
visual protection curve representative of said adjustable
predetermined function. Appellants argue that Yalla at best
teaches separate and distinct LEDs 71 and 72 to prompt an
operator to select a relay element function and to confirm the
entry of the function to be accessed and twelve separate and
distinct LEDs 15 to indicate the reason for the trip
operation. Appellants argue that Yalla fails to suggest any
reason to modify the Matsko visual protection curve
representation 42, 47, 48a having LED indicators 140-143

indicators have a first and second state as recited in
