UR Family Software 5.80 - Release Notes
Software
Software 5.80
N The new “Simplified GOOSE Configurator” reduces number of steps required for configuring IEC61850
GOOSE messages
Applicable: UR Setup, UR Engineer
Description: A new software tool named “Simplified GOOSE Configurator” has been added to the UR Setup
and UR Engineer software. This routine gives users a seamless way to configure IEC61850 GOOSE
messages.
The configurator requires settings files to be located in a new “GOOSE site” that can be created within the
offline window. Users can drag any of the existing relay logic-operands from the relays at the “GOOSE
Site” (publisher) and drop them into any of the other devices (subscriber). All the UR internal operands are
supported (digital, analogs, integers).
This tool also supports a column for Generic IEDs that allows for easy configuration of GOOSE publishing
only, this intended for those GOOSE messages which subscribers are not UR devices.
Once the operands have been dragged and dropped, the Configurator automatically updates the relay
(both publisher and subscriber) setting files by configuring the required fields (remote devices, GOOSE data
sets and data Items, remote inputs, Generic logical nodes).
This software tool reduces the number of steps required for IEC61850 GOOSE configuration and enables
customers with limited communication experience to set their GOOSE messages.
