Creating an application configuration with ACT
5.1.1
Overview
ACT is used to create the application configuration for an IED. The application
configuration is built up with function blocks.
Function blocks are dedicated for different functionality, for example:
•
Preprocessing blocks
•
Control related functions
•
Protection related functions
•
Monitoring functions
•
Communication
For detailed information about function blocks see the technical
reference manual and the application manual.
SMBIs and SMBOs are still available for 670 series in PCM600,
but the user is not constrained to use them anymore. The user can
connect the function blocks inputs and outputs directly to the
hardware channels.
Some function blocks are mapped as logical nodes according to the IEC 61850
standard. Other function blocks are not mapped as logical nodes, for example:
•
Logical gates
•
Timers
The basic general features of the Application configuration tool ACT:
•
Organization of an application configuration
•
Organize an application configuration into a number of logical parts
(MainApplication).
•
Organize a MainApplication over a number of pages.
•
Features to program an application configuration:
