Description

The ibaPDA-Interface-IEC61850-Client data interface is suitable for the measurement data acquisition of an IEC 61850-compliant server via standard network cards.

The following services are supported:

  • Manufacturing Messaging Specification (MMS)

  • Generic Object Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE)

  • IEC 61850-7-2 COMTRADE File Support

You can conveniently make a selection using the symbolic names supported by the IEC 61850 symbol browser. This enables access to all measurable symbols based on the imported server object list of the IEC 61850 device. ibaPDA can generate addressbooks for the IEDs offline out of the SCL files of the servers.

Up to 64 connections can be used per interface license. By purchasing further one-step-up licenses, the number of connections can be increased as needed.

Interface configuration

Set all values to zero when the connection to a device is lost

If this option is enabled, all the measured values of a device are set to zero as soon as the connection is lost. If this option is disabled, ibaPDA will keep last valid measured value in the memory at the time the connection was lost.

Start acquisition even if a device is not accessible

If this option is enabled, the acquisition will start even if a device is not accessible. Instead of an error, a warning is indicated in the validation dialog. If the system has been started without a connection to the device, ibaPDA will try to connect to the device at regular intervals.

Accept unaccessible attributes

Enable this option to start the acquisition, even if no attributes are accessible. The inaccessible symbols are issued as warnings in the validation dialog. This can only occur if the address book is not up to date!

If you do not enable this option then the measurement does not start if there are inaccessible symbols.

Connection table

For information about the connection table, see Connection table.

The update time is only displayed for modules that automatically request data from the IEC server with the set update time. This only applies for MMS modules without report control blocks.

The response time for MMS modules without Report Control Block describes the time that passes between the data request from ibaPDA and the response being received.

For all other module types, the IEC server automatically sends data according to different criteria. In this case, the response time describes the time span between two received telegrams.
