•
Online mode: When the IED is already connected to PCM600 and the
communication is established, PCM600 can read the configuration
directly from the physical IED. This is useful when an order specific IED
is used. The order configuration is written to the IED at the factory and
can be accessed by PCM600. The housing type, the used overlay version
for local HMI and the IO boards included in the IED will be read from
the IED directly.
•
Offline mode: When the physical IED is not available or not connected
to PCM600 the engineering steps are done without any synchronization
with the IED. The offline configuration in PCM600 can be synchronized
with the physical IED at a later state by connecting the IED to PCM600.
It is possible to judge whether the inserted IED is in offline
mode or online mode from the plant structure. A red color
cross before the IED symbol indicates the offline mode as
shown in

Inserting an IED in online mode
For setting up an IED online, the IED must be connected to PCM600.
Procedure
1. Right-click the Bay and select
