Setting the station communication
To enable IEC 61850 station communication:
•
The IEC 61850-8-1 station communication functionality must be on in the local
HMI. Navigate to
Main menu/Configuration/Communication/Station
communication/IEC61850-8-1:1
and set the
Operation
parameter to
Enabled
.
•
To enable GOOSE communication the
Operation
parameter for the corresponding
GOOSE function blocks (GOOSEBINRCV and GOOSEINTLKRCV) must be set to
Enabled
in the application configuration.
•
To enable GOOSE communication via the front port the parameter
PortSelGOOSE
in
Main menu/Configuration/Communication/Station communication/
IEC61850-8-1:1
must be set to
Front
. To enable GOOSE communication via rear
port the parameter
PortSelGOOSE
must be set to
LAN1
.
•
To enable MMS communication via the rear port the parameter
PortSelMMS
in
Main

4.2
Verifying the station communication
Connect your PC to the substation network and ping the connected IED and the Substation
Master PC, to verify that the communication is working (up to the transport layer).
The best way to verify the communication up to the application layer is to use protocol
analyzer connected to the substation bus, and monitor the communication.
