• The default 615 series IED SCL export from PCM600 contains five default

client definitions, “Client1”…”Client5”, which are used by all the RCBs.

MicroSCADA and COM600 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.

Importing a new IEC 61850 client

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 on the shortcut menu.

Creating a GOOSE data set

Define the sending data set used by the GOOSE control block. With the 615 series

IEDs, the sending GOOSE data set can have at maximum 20 data attributes to

minimize the message handling load in receiver and sending IEDs.

All data sets must be configured under the logical node LLN0 and must be

provided with names unique within the IED. In 615 series IEDs there are a

maximum of four GOOSE control blocks allowed, which effectively limits the

relay to four data sets for GOOSE as there is a one-to-one correspondence between

the GOOSE control blocks and GOOSE data sets. Typically it is sufficient to

define a single data set and control block for an application.
