Date Code 20080110 SEL-300 Series Relays Firmware Upgrade Instructions B-25
SEL-387E Instruction Manual
Perform the following steps to verify that the IEC 61850 protocol is still operational after an
Ethernet port firmware upgrade and if not, re-enable it. This procedure assumes that IEC 61850
was operational with a valid CID file immediately before initiating the Ethernet port firmware
upgrade.
Step 1. Establish an FTP Connection to the relay Ethernet port (See B. Establish an FTP
Connection).
Step 2. Open the ERR.TXT file for reading.
If the ERR.TXT file contains error messages relating to CID file parsing, this indicates
that the relay has disabled the IEC 61850 protocol. If this file is empty, the relay found
no errors during CID file processing and IEC 61850 should remain enabled. Skip to
Step 3 if ERR.TXT is empty.
If the IEC 61850 protocol has been disabled because of an upgrade-induced CID file
incompatibility, you can use
AC
SEL
ERATOR
®
Architect
™
SEL-5032 Software to
convert the existing CID file and make it compatible again.
a. Install the
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect software upgrade that supports your
required CID file version.
b. Run
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect and open the project that contains the existing
CID file for the relay.
c. Download the CID file to the relay.
Upon connecting to the relay,
AC
SEL
ERATOR
Architect will detect the
upgraded Ethernet port firmware and prompt you to allow it to convert the
existing CID file to a supported version. Once converted, downloaded, and
processed, the valid CID file allows the relay to re-enable the IEC 61850
protocol.
Step 3. In the Telnet session, type GOO <Enter>.
Step 4. View the GOOSE status and verify that the transmitted and received messages are as
expected.
