If more than one CID file is stored in the meter, IEC 61850 functionality is deactivated until
additional files are deleted.
Prerequisites:
•
IEC 61850 configuration tool installed on your computer.
•
Meter connection using ION Setup over IPv4 Ethernet.
•
Download the firmware package for your meter and select an ICD (IED Capability
Description) file that matches your meter’s profile. Go to www.usa.siemens.com/pds and
download the firmware package (ZIP) for your meter.
To enable IEC 61850 functionality:
1. Open the IEC61850 configuration tool.
2. Import the ICD file that matches your meter's profile.
3. Modify the device properties if required.
4. Create and save a CIDfile.
5. Close the IEC61850 configuration tool.
6. Open ION Setup > select the meter > Setup Assistant.
NOTE: The CID file can also be uploaded using SFTP. Refer to "SFTP folders and file
permissions" on page 116 for more information.
7. Communications folder > 3rd Party Protocols > IEC 61850 > Upload CID.
8. Navigate to the CID file, select it and click Open. CID file validation can take several
minutes.

Configuring digital outputs for IEC 61850 control
Configure default settings for digital outputs to use IEC 61850 for non-critical control of the
meter’s digital outputs.
This procedure is optional. Your meter has comprehensive default settings for IEC 61850 that
meet the needs of most systems without configuration. This is an advanced procedure that
requires in-depth knowledge of your meter, its underlying architecture, and the system in which it
is installed.
