Setting up a project

PCM600 operates on projects

A typical project in PCM600 contains a plant structure including one or several IED
objects, where each IED object contains the engineering data created or modified
using the different PCM600 tools.
Several projects can be created and managed by PCM600, but only one project can be
active at a time.

Installing Connectivity packages

A Connectivity package contains the complete description of the IED data signals,
parameters and protocol addresses for a certain IED type and version. Several types of
IEDs can be managed in one PCM600 project, thus the corresponding Connectivity
package has to be installed on the PC. A Connectivity package is managed in a
separate tool called Update Manager.
1. Close PCM600.
2. Run the RE_630 Connectivity Package Ver. n.exe installer. (n = version number)
3. To install the connectivity package, follow the steps in the installation software
guide.
Activating installed connectivity packages
The IED connectivity package has to be installed before activating the connectivity
packages.
1. Activate the appropriate connectivity package in the Update Manager after the
installation. The Update Manager shows the IEDs that are compatible with the
installed PCM600 version.
2. Select the ABB IED Connectivity Package RE_630 Ver. n (n = version number)
to use 630 series products. It is recommended to always use the lates version of
the connectivity package.
