Appropriate software within the control system or on the interrogating computer (e.g. Reydisp Evolution) is
required to access the interface.
This section specifies connection details and lists the events, commands and measurands available. For further
information regarding the IEC60870-5-103 interface, reference should be made to the separate Informative
