18.3 DNP3 protocol
DNP3 (Distributed Network Protocol) is a set of communications protocols used to communicate
data between components in process automation systems. For a detailed description of the DNP3
protocol, see the DNP3 Communication protocol manual.
18.4 IEC 61850-8-1 communication protocol
18.4.1 Functionality
IEC 61850 Ed.1 or Ed.2 can be chosen by a setting in PCM600. The IED is equipped with single or
double optical Ethernet rear ports (order dependent) for IEC 61850-8-1 station bus
communication. The IEC 61850-8-1 communication is also possible from the electrical Ethernet
front port. IEC 61850-8-1 protocol allows intelligent electrical devices (IEDs) from different vendors
to exchange information and simplifies system engineering. IED-to-IED communication using
GOOSE and client-server communication over MMS are supported. Disturbance recording file
(COMTRADE) uploading can be done over MMS or FTP.
