Using the Technical Key Editor the following selections are possible.
• use the existing technical key in the IED
• use the existing technical key defined for the IED object in PCM600 or
• set a user defined technical key, which changes the technical key for
both the physical IED and IED object in PCM600.
The maximum technical key length is 25 characters for IEC
61850 Edition 1 and 55 characters for IEC 61850 Edition 2.
4. Click OK to confirm the selection.
It is not possible to set a user defined name or select the Technical key in IED
if the value is the same as already given to another IED object in the PCM600
project. A dialog window opens if this is the case.
4.4 Setting up communication between PCM600 and
the IED
SEMOD58570-5 v15
The communication between the IED and PCM600 is independent of the
communication protocol used within the substation or to the NCC.
The communication media is always Ethernet and the used transport layer is
TCP/IP.
Each IED has an RJ-45 Ethernet interface connector on the front. The front
Ethernet connector is recommended to be used for communication with PCM600.
When an Ethernet-based station protocol is used, PCM600 communication can use
the same Ethernet port and IP address.
To connect PCM600 to the IED, two basic variants must be considered.
• Direct point-to-point link between PCM600 and the IED front port. The front
port can be seen as a service port.
• A link via a station LAN or from remote via a network.
The physical connection and the IP address must be configured in both cases to
enable communication.
The communication procedures are the same in both cases.
1. If needed, set the IP address for the IEDs.
2. Set up the PC or workstation for a direct link (point-to-point), or
3. Connect the PC or workstation to the LAN/WAN network.
4. Configure the IED IP addresses in the PCM600 project for each IED to match
the IP addresses of the physical IEDs.
