CHAPTER 10: INTRODUCING THE D400 CONFIGURATION
D400 SUBSTATION GATEWAY INSTRUCTION MANUAL GE INFORMATION 123
Configuration steps
The typical sequence of steps to configure the D400 to operate in a substation automation
system is as follows:
1.
Set up network and system settings using the D400 System Utilities.
2. Create and/or edit Client (device) maps using the configuration tool.
3. Set up device (serial and network) connections, including protocol-specific settings.
4. Program Automation applications.
5. Create Server maps.
6. Set up master station connections, including protocol-specific settings.
7. Create substation one-line diagrams using the One-Line Designer.
8. Save the configuration file.
9.Run the configuration file on the D400 by committing the changes.
Configuration file format
Configuration information for an individual D400 is stored as a set of configuration files.
The configuration files are labeled with the D400 device name and saved to the User
CompactFlash disk on the D400 main board.
The configuration files contain the following information:
•
Device and master point maps
• Application settings
• HMI settings
Configuration information for each application, is also contained in the configuration files,
including the application version, configuration settings, default settings and saved user
settings.
System configuration information that is modified using the system utilities is stored in
separate system configuration files stored on the D400. The system configuration files are
updated each time changes are made.
Configuration management
While you are creating and editing the D400 configuration using the D400 configuration
tool, your settings are saved in a temporary file and location. When you are ready to run
the new configuration in the D400, you “commit” the changes. The configuration tool
validates your changes and reports any errors. Once a configuration is validated and
committed, the previous configuration file is archived, the new file is copied to the system
disk and the D400 applications are restarted.
The D400 online Help describes how to configure the D400 for various substation
applications.
