Configuring horizontal communication

See detailed descriptions of the steps in corresponding chapters.

1. Add devices to a PCM600 project.

2. Export the SCD file.

3. Import the SCD file to IET600.

4. Engineer the GOOSE connections between the devices

4.1. Define the published GOOSE data and control blocks.

4.2. Define the subscribing IEDs for the GOOSE data.

5. Export the SCD file back to PCM600.

6. In PCM600. engineer the IED applications with GOOSE inputs.

When a 615 series IED is configured to send measurements, the analog, integer or

counter type of data should be placed on its own dataset. The triggering of analog

type of data sending is controlled by deadband handling, zero-point clamping and

limit supervision.

The horizontal communication configuration consists of the IEDs’ GOOSE control

block, data set and GOOSE input configuration. The result of the configuration

work is a system configuration file which can be downloaded to the IEDs. The

used files in the workflow are IEC 61850 standard format SCL files.
