Engineering

This section guides when performing the engineering tasks required before
using SPA-ZC 400.
For more information on the IEC 61850 data modeling, refer to the
IEC 61850 standards listed in Section 1.4. Product documentation.
Note that all the possible engineering scenarios are not included
in this manual. You must have engineering rights to be able to
perform the tasks described in this section.

Overview of engineering

The engineering and maintenance of SPA-ZC 400 is done by using CET for
SPA-ZC 40x functions or by importing the existing SPA-ZC 40x CID file.
The device's communication structure is described in the Project Explorer
dialog. The structure is built by using device objects. These objects have
communication properties that can be accessed through the Object Properties
dialog. These properties define for example the IP addresses, unit addresses,
and descriptions.
The process data accessible on devices is modeled according to the
IEC 61850 standard. The communication structure consist of:
Logical devices (LD)
*
Logical nodes (LN)
*
Data objects (DO)
*
Data attributes (DA)
*
The data model is imported from the preconfigured object types of devices,
which have the objects defined and configured. These object types are
defined in the standardized IED Connectivity Packages. The data model can
also be created manually by using CET for SPA-ZC 40x functions.
When the structure is complete and all the objects have been set up properly,
the configuration is downloaded through FTP to SPA-ZC 400 by using the
CID (Configured IED Description) Export function.
The engineering task are the following:
1. Building an object tree according to the IEC 61850 data model by
importing the Connectivity Package
2. Configuring object properties, for example adding mapping to the SPA
references in the IED (Intelligent Electronic Device)
3. Configuring IED TCP/IP addresses and parameters
4. Configuring SPA addresses and parameters
5. Exporting configuration data to SPA-ZC 400 and to the IEC 61850
system configuration tool
