ms:
Ethernet communication based:
• SNTP (simple network time protocol)
• DNP3
With special time synchronization wiring:
• IRIG-B
• IEC 60870-5-103

Connectivity packages

A connectivity package is a software component that consists of executable code and data which
enables system tools to communicate with a protection relay. Connectivity packages are used to
create configuration structures in PCM600. The latest PCM600 and connectivity packages are
backward compatible with older protection relay versions.
A connectivity package includes all of the data which is used to describe the protection relay, for
example, it contains a list of the existing parameters, data format used, units, setting range,
access rights and visibility of the parameter. In addition, it contains code which allows software
packages that consume the connectivity package to properly communicate with the protection
