Figure E.2: Configuration Process
Referring to Figure E.2:
In step 1, the IED template is provided by the vendor (or sometimes created by a
vendor tool). This file is imported into the vendor-independent tool, the System Con-
figurator, along with other device templates. The System Configurator uses these
templates to set up the correct number of IEDs in the system and then provides con-
figuration information. The configuration information consists of providing addresses
for all IEDs in the system, creation of datasets, configuring control blocks, and setting
individual device parameters such as analog deadbands. The System Configurator
then creates a SCD file with a consistent view of the entire system.
In step 2, the SCD file is used to configure each device using vendor-supplied tools.
Vendors are free to choose the configuration mechanism, but the configuration infor-
mation MUST be derived from the SCD file.
NOTE:
In the Shark® 200 meter’s IEC 61850 Protocol Ethernet network card
implementation, every service and object within the server is defined in the standard
(there is nothing non-standard in the device).
Also in step 2, the user sets up report control blocks, buffered and unbuffered, for
each of the clients. Setup information includes the dataset name, a report identifier,
the optional fields to be used in the report, the trigger options, buffer time (delay
