7.1 Managing IEC 61850 clients with the IEC 61850
Configuration tool
The default IED SCL contains five default client definitions, “Client1”...”Client5”,
which are used by all the RCBs. PCM600 does not show these clients in the plant
structure, but the IEC 61850 Configuration tool shows the clients in the client-server
communication.
MicroSCADA and COM600S clients can use the client definitions directly. If other
clients need to be added to the project, import the ICD file describing the client data
model to PCM600.
7.1.1 Adding new IEC 61850 clients for the IEC 61850
Configuration tool
Adding a new IEC 61850 client to a PCM600 project is a two-step operation. First, a
new generic IEC 61850 IED object must be created under the plant structure and the
relevant client ICD or CID file must be imported to the generic IEC 61850 IED.
1. Right-click a bay node in the project plant structure, point to New, then point to
Generic IEC61850 IEC and select IEC61850 IED.
