13.1.2 Application
Pulse counter (PCGGIO) function counts externally generated binary pulses, for
instance pulses coming from an external energy meter, for calculation of energy
consumption values. The pulses are captured by the binary input module (BIO), and
read by the PCGGIO function. The number of pulses in the counter is then reported via
the station bus to the substation automation system or read via the station monitoring
system as a service value. When using IEC 61850–8–1, a scaled service value is
available over the station bus.
The normal use for this function is the counting of energy pulses from external energy
meters. An optional number of inputs from the binary input module in IED can be used
for this purpose with a frequency of up to 10 Hz. PCGGIO can also be used as a general
purpose counter.
13.1.3 Setting guidelines
From PCM600, these parameters can be set individually for each pulse counter:
• Operation: Off/On
• tReporting: 0-3600s
• EventMask: NoEvents/ReportEvents
The configuration of the inputs and outputs of PCGGIO function block is made with
PCM600.
On the binary input output module (BIO), the debounce filter default time is set to 5
ms, that is, the counter suppresses pulses with a pulse length less than 5 ms. The binary
