N60 NETWORK STABILITY AND SYNCHROPHASOR MEASUREMENT SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL

These values specify the remaining number of TCP connections still available for each protocol. The display depends on the
options applicable to your device. Each time a connection is used, the remaining number of connections decrements.
When released, the remaining number of connections increments. If no connection is made over the specific protocol, the
number equals the maximum number available for the specific protocol.
For example, the maximum number of Modbus TCP connections is 4. Once an EnerVista session is opened on a computer
connected to the UR over Ethernet, the Modbus TCP status shows 3. If the EnerVista application is closed, the Modbus TCP
status shows 4.
For the graphical front panel, the remaining connections refer to TCP connections only.
MMS TCP
— The number of IEC 61850 connections remaining.
PMU TCP
— The maximum number of PMU TCP connections matches the number of aggregators. The maximum number of
aggregators for the N60 is 4. The maximum number for the C60 is 2. The maximum number is 1 for other products with a
PMU. The remaining number of aggregators displays here.
6.3.20 Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP)
The Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) defines a redundancy protocol for high availability in substation automation
networks.
ACTUAL VALUES
STATUS
PRP STATUS
Total Received Port A
is a counter for total messages received (either from DANPs or from SANs) on Port A.
Total Received Port B
is a counter for total messages received (either from DANPs or from SANs) on Port B.
Total Errors
is a counter for total messages received with an error (bad port code, frame length too short).
Mismatches Port A
is a counter for total messages received with an error on Port A (PRP frame, but port received through
and LAN ID in the frame do not match).
Mismatches Port B
is a counter for total messages received with an error on Port B (PRP frame, but port received through
and LAN ID in the frame do not match).

The N60 is provided with optional PRP capability. This feature is specified as a software option at the time of
ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.
