Engineering

This section guides when performing the engineering tasks required before
using SPA-ZC 400.
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 communication structure consist of:
Logical devices (LD)
*
Logical nodes (LN)
*
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 by adding a logical device to the configuration
2. Configuring object properties, for example modifying TCP/IP address
3. Configuring Modbus communication parameters
4. Exporting configuration data to SPA-ZC 400

Creating project

You need to start the Communication Engineering Tool (CET) for
SPA-ZC 40x to open and name a project, see Fig. 5.2.-1 and Fig. 5.2.-2.
