8.1 Managing IEC 61850 clients with IET600
When the relay configurations are changed using IET600, some preparations are
required when a project is started and the protection relay's data model is imported to
the tool for the first time.
• The default IED SCL export from PCM600 contains five default client
definitions, “Client1”...”Client5”, which are used by all the RCBs.MicroSCADA
and COM600S clients can use the client definitions directly. If other clients need
to be added to the IET600 project, import the ICD file describing the client data
model to the project and attach the file to the same IEC 61850 subnetwork in the
Communication tab.
• Create the bus connections for the IEC 61850 clients.
8.1.1 Adding new IEC 61850 clients for IET600
Adding a new IEC 61850 client to an IET600 project is a two-step operation. The
client must be first created using the Create New IED function, after which the
Update IED function can be used to import the related ICD or CID file.
1. To create an IED, click the IEDs tab in the navigation pane.
2. Click the root node in the IED tree.
3. Right-click the node and click Create New IED.
