CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.
NOTE
Configuration Type
Range: G2, E3-2.0
Default: G2
This setting specifies the method used to describe GOOSE subscription configuration in SCL. See the UR Series
Communications Guide for details. Basically, in the G2 mode, the CID file contains IED elements for IEDs subscribed to by
this IED containing GOOSE subscription information. In the E3 2.0 mode, the CID file has only one IED element and
GOOSE subscription information is coded in data objects in the standard LGOS logical node used to monitor reception of
the subscribed GOOSE. UR 7.30 or later accepts either mode.

TxGOOSE
IEC 61850 GOOSE is an efficient method for simultaneous high-speed delivery of a set of generic substation event
information in a publishing physical device to more than one subscribing physical device. A TxGOOSE is a UR element
implementing a single IEC 61850 GOOSE message publishing service. The subscribing function in URs is performed by
RxGOOSE elements, as described in the next section. Each UR with IEC 61850 order code options has eight TxGOOSE
elements. Each TxGOOSE element can publish the values of up to 64 FlexLogic or FlexAnalog operands in the UR.
Published TxGOOSE messages configured in the EnerVista UR Setup software can be subscribed by and the published
operand values understood by other UR devices. In fact, they can be subscribed to and understood by any device of any
manufacturer that implements the IEC 61850 edition 1.0 or 2.0 GOOSE subscription mechanism. The messages are
published with a multicast address so that the network sends the messages to all devices; any number of devices that
want to subscribe can.
The entities whose values are published in GOOSE messages are known as members. The members are itemized in an
ordered list known as a data set. Each TxGOOSE can use any one of the data sets provided. See the DataSets section later
for details.
