3. Application
Wireless I/O Gateway ARR600 can be used in the feeder
automation and substation applications to automate
distribution network in cooperation with the other ABB grid
automation equipment. Further, the devices can be used in
secondary substations for monitoring of transformers as well as
other monitoring and control applications.
ARR600 can be used in various industrial applications.
• Generic remote I/O interface for an upper-level system, for
example, for directly controlling a load-break switch
• Connecting IEC-101 or Modbus RTU protocol based
meters and fault passage indicators into an upper-level
system
• Providing a fast, reliable and secure wireless link between
Ethernet devices, such as COM600 Substation
Management Unit and 615 series protection relays
• Enables remote service and maintenance opportunities by
allowing the service personnel to remotely access any type
of field devices. For example, these field devices can
securely report the condition monitoring information,
which allows planning of preventative maintenance.
• Backup connectivity for any communication link
Key features
• Digital I/O and analog input interfaces
• Support for multiple communication protocols for
controlling of I/O ports
• Protocol converter for multiple communication protocols
• Enables always-on TCP/IP routing and serial over TCP/IP
based two-way communication
• Arctic Patrol connectivity supervision of the
communication
• Secure communication maintained with VPN and Firewall

4. Physical interfaces
Wireless I/O Gateway ARR600 has two I/O variants called IO-1
and IO-2. IO-1 has 8 binary inputs and 2 binary outputs while
IO-2 has 6 binary inputs, 4 binary outputs and 2 analog inputs.
ARR600 has two serial ports (RS-232, RS-485) and one LAN
port (RJ-45) for device connectivity.
