15.1.2 Application
Pulse counter (PCGGIO) function counts externally generated binary pulses, for instance
pulses coming from an external energy meter, for calculation of energy consumption
values. The pulses are captured by the binary input module (BIO), and read by the
PCGGIO function. The number of pulses in the counter is then reported via the station bus
to the substation automation system or read via the station monitoring system as a service
value. When using IEC 61850–8–1, a scaled service value is available over the station bus.
The normal use for this function is the counting of energy pulses from external energy
meters. An optional number of inputs from the binary input module in IED can be used for
this purpose with a frequency of up to 10 Hz. PCGGIO can also be used as a general
purpose counter.
15.1.3 Setting guidelines
From PCM600, these parameters can be set individually for each pulse counter:
• Operation : Disabled / Enabled
• tReporting : 0-3600s
• EventMask : NoEvents / ReportEvents
The configuration of the inputs and outputs of PCGGIO function block is made with
PCM600.
