Distributed system

DANEO 400 was inherently designed to be used in a measurement system comprised of multiple
devices distributed in different locations over arbitrary distances. The options for controlling
DANEO 400 were made in a way so that remote access is possible. DANEO Control software is
designed to control multiple devices from one place and to collect the acquired data from all devices of
the measurement system for a coordinated analysis.

Hybrid measurement

DANEO 400 combines the classical signals in a protection and automation system with digitized
signals conveyed over communication networks. DANEO 400 acquires classical secondary voltages
and currents and hard-wired binary signals as well as traffic from the power utility communication
network. The information from both worlds is recorded and presented together, revealing the
coordination between each other.
