3.1.5 RxGOOSE
The IEC 61850 standard does not contain a control block or equivalent for subscribing to GOOSE messages. The standard
assumes that the subscriber has access to a description of the information model of the publisher, and from that can
extract the information that it needs to subscribe.
Since UR 7.30, an RxGOOSE is a UR element that contains in a single entity all the information necessary to subscribe to a
specific GOOSE message. Both the UR and EnerVista UR Setup software automatically extract this information on receiving
an appropriate SCL file. However, EnerVista UR Setup also allows manual entry of this information via RxGOOSE
configuration pages. The figure shows an example of an RxGOOSE configuration page, which subscribes to the message
generated by the TxGOOSE and dataset examples of the preceding sections of this manual. If an SCL file with the
publisher’s configuration is available, all of the settings on this page are completed automatically when a subscription is
configured on an RxGOOSE Inputs page, except for a few settings necessary for R-GOOSE.
