Communication

The RIO600 supports fast real-time horizontal GOOSE communication in accordance

with the IEC 61850 1st and 2nd edition standards for substation automation.

The RIO600 also supports Modbus TCP communication with a Modbus TCP client.

Both can be used in parallel in the same Ethernet bus.

The RIO600 sends and receives binary signals to and from ABB Relion®

protective relays and station automation units.

The RIO600 sends and receives binary signals between

 the protective relay and the station automation unit COM600.

The RIO600 subscribes to signals from five devices and publishes signals

to multiple devices depending on the user configuration.

Using the same Ethernet port, the RIO600 can be connected in parallel to

the PCM600 and the web browser via the same communication bus.

Hardware

Built on an industrial hardware platform, the RIO600 offers the same reliability,

performance and real-time functionality as ABB’s protection and control relays.

The modular design of the RIO600 makes it suitable for use in utility substations and

industrial environments with harsh electrical environments and climatic conditions.

A single RIO600 can have up to 40 I/O channels, and different types of I/O modules

can be stacked together in a completely flexible way to realise a wide range of applications.

The RIO600 subscribes to signals from five devices and publishes signals

to multiple devices depending on the user configuration.

Using the same Ethernet port, the RIO600 can be connected in parallel to

the PCM600 and the web browser via the same communication bus.

RIO600 communications include a current RJ-45 port or fibre optic LC Ethernet

for IEC 61850 GOOSE and Modbus TCP communications.

The RIO600 Web HMI is used for monitoring and diagnostics and 

all parameters can be configured by the user via the PCM600.

Communication

RIO600 supports the horizontal GOOSE

communication of the IEC 61850 substation

automation standard.

RIO600 is designed to send and receive binary

signals to or from the ABB Relion® series IEDs

and the station automation device COM600 using

the IEC 61850-8-1 GOOSE (Generic Object

Oriented Substation Event) profile.

RIO600 communication module includes a

galvanic Ethernet RJ-45 port for IEC 61850

GOOSE communication. The used cable type

must be at least Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) CAT5e.

Using the same Ethernet port, RIO600 can be

connected in parallel to PCM600 and a Web

browser over the same communication bus.

Indication LEDs

RIO600 is equipped with different indication LEDs

available on different modules.

•Ready LED on all modules

•Status indication LED for each binary input and output

•Communication diagnostic LED on the communication module
