The TMx monitor must be configured to correctly operate with the IEC 61850 protocol. The Configuration chapter provides details. Configuration is done using the Command Line Interface (CLI). Refer to the TMx Firmware Command Set document [810-1689-xx] on how to use the CLI and these commands.
IEC 61850 Device Profile
COMMUNICATION PROFILES
The TMx supports IEC 61850 server services over theTCP/IP communication protocol stack. The TCP/IP profile requires the TMx to have an IP address to establish communications. This address is assigned in the CLI setup. One TCP/IP 61850 connection is supported (in addition to CLI TCP non-IEC 61850). Simultaneous connections with IEC 651850, DNP, or Modbus are not supported. Only one protocol can be active, and the active protocol is specified in the CLI setup.
MMS PROTOCOL
IEC 61850 specifies the use of the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) at the upper (application) layer for transfer of real-time data. This protocol has been in existence for a number of years and provides a set of services suitable for the transfer of data within a substation LAN environment. Actual MMS protocol services are mapped to IEC 61850 abstract services in IEC 61850-8-1.
PEER-TO-PEER COMMUNICATION
Peer-to-peer communication of digital state information (remote inputs/outputs) is defined in the IEC 61850 GSSE and GOOSE services. This feature allows digital points to be exchanged between IEC 61850 conforming devices. Currently TMx IEC 61850 version XXX and lower does not support this functionality.
FILE SERVICES
MMS file services are supported to allow transfer of event record or other files. Currently TMx IEC 61850 version 4.02 and lower does not support this functionality.
810-1885-00 Rev A © 2011 BPL Global, Ltd. page 9
COMMUNICATION SOFTWARE UTILITIES
The exact structure and values of the supported IEC 61850 logical nodes can be seen by connecting to a TMx with a IEC61850 browser/IEC61850 Client. For testing purposes, several vendors offer specific programs for that purpose, typically referred to as IEC 61850 “browsers”, “explorers”, or “clients”. The Command Language Interface (CLI) is available either through a Serial connection (RS-232, RS-485) or Ethernet (via Telnet port 22 & 23).
TCP CONNECTION TIMING
A built-in TCP/IP connection timeout of two minutes is employed by the TMx to detect ‘dead’ connections. If there is no data traffic on a TCP connection for greater than two minutes, the connection will be aborted by the TMx. This frees up the connection to be used by other clients. Therefore, when using IEC 61850 reporting, clients should configure report control block items such that an integrity report will be issued at least every 2 minutes (120000 ms). This ensures that the TMx will not abort the connection. If other MMS data is being polled on the same connection at least once every 2 minutes, this timeout will not apply.

IEC 61850 Logical Node Data Model
The IEC 61850 specification describes a data model where a collection of Logical Nodes (LN) describes a collection of Data Objects (DO). These data models are defined in the following standards:
IEC 61850-7-3 Common Data Classes
IEC 61850-7-4 Compatible Logical Node Classes And Data Classes
The TMx IEC 61850 server provides a single logical device with the name “TMXC1”. It provides the logical nodes LPHD and LLN0, and a set of logical nodes for TMx data. The names of logical nodes are fixed.
Common Logical Node Class
The Common Logical Node defines fields which are inherited by all other Logical Nodes, with the exception of the LPHD Logical Node. It does not actually exist as a Logical Node instance in the TMx.
LN: CLN Name: Common Logical Node
DO Name DO Type Supported Description Mandatory/Optional
Mod INC Yes Mode M
Beh INS Yes Behavior M
Health INS Yes Health M

Loc SPS No Local Operation O
EEHealth INS No External Equipment Health O
EEName DPL No External Equipment Name Plate O
OpCntRs INC No Operation Counter resetable O
OpCnt INS No Operation counter O
OpTmh INS No Operation time O
Common Data Classes
The standard specifies the common data classes (CDC) in IEC 61850-7-3. These are the various data structures that are used as the building blocks for logical nodes. Not all are used in the TMx; below is a list of the CDC’s referenced in this document. See IEC 61850-7-3 for a detailed description of these classes.
SPS = Single Point Status (ie., ON/OFF) MV=Measurement (Analog, floating point format) INS = Integer Status (32 bit, unsigned value) INC = Controllable Integer (32 bit, writable) LPL = Logical Node Name Plate (Name of Logical Node) DPL = Device Name Plate (Name of Device)

Table 7 : Predefined DataSets
Configuring IEC 61850 Communications The monitor’s configuration can be changed using the Command Line Interface (CLI). The Firmware Command Set document 810-1689 describes how to use this interface. Reconfiguring the monitor via the IEC 61850 protocol is not supported.
The commands needed to configure the monitor for IEC 61850 communications are: config, nc and reboot.
Activation Key
Use of the monitor’s IEC 61850 feature requires an activation key be configured on the monitor. The configuration item name is iec61850.actkey and the item’s value is a string of text. The key text is unique to each monitor. The key may have been configured at the factory if the monitor was ordered with the feature. If the key was not entered at the factory then it will need to be entered in the field. A key value can be obtained from customer support.
You can see if the key is present or not by reading the configuration item’s value using the CLI. If the value is null (no text) then a valid activation key has not been entered in the monitor.
Here is an example of a monitor without an activation key:
> config list iec61850.actkey
iec61850.actkey =
And here is an example of a monitor with an activation key:
> config list iec61850.actkey
iec61850.actkey = A-9-TM8XX1234-TF2S-UE9B-M6QK-7GV3-E50N-iAG4-384C-84QA
Protocol Support By Interface
The table below shows the various communication protocols that can be configured by physical interface. The use of some protocols may preclude the use of other protocols. IEC 61850 can only be
810-1885-00 Rev A © 2011 BPL Global, Ltd. page 32
used over the Ethernet physical interface. If IEC 61850 is enabled then DNP and Modbus are precluded from use on any physical interface.

Table 8: Protocol Support by Interface
Note that the “or” conditions in the table above are exclusive. In these cases, at any one time only one of the protocols is supported based upon configuration. So, none of the SCADA protocols IEC 61850, DNP, and Modbus, can be used simultaneously, even if different physical interfaces are selected. And, for example, if the DNP protocol is configured for use over the internal modem then neither the Serveron SMS protocol nor CLI can be used over the internal modem.
The section below describes how to set-up the monitor for running the monitor as an IEC 61850 Server over the Ethernet interface. Many of the communication related configuration items require that the
810-1885-00 Rev A © 2011 BPL Global, Ltd. page 33
monitor be restarted before changes to the items are recognized. These items are marked with an [R] in the configuration tables.
810-1885-00 Rev A © 2011 BPL Global, Ltd. page 34
IEC 61850 over Ethernet
The Ethernet interface is initially configured with DHCP disabled, and the static IP addresses set to 0.0.0.0. The Command Line Interface’s NC command can be used to view and change the IP configuration. See the Firmware Command Set document on how to use the NC command to configure the IP interface.
Only TCP is supported for IEC 61850.
The table below shows the configuration for running IEC 61850 over IP/Ethernet networks.
configuration item settings
scada.protocol [R]
“IEC61850”
This setting will not be allowed if the IEC 61850 activation key has not been set.
scada.interface [R] “TCPIP”
scada.master_ip
This parameter specifies the IP address of the IEC 61850 Client. When this parameter is set to an IP address other than 0.0.0.0, only the Client with the specified IP address can access the monitor. If this is 0.0.0.0, the Client’s IP address is not restricted. Default value: 0.0.0.0.
scada.tcp_timeout
Number of seconds after which the server will close the TCP connection if no input was received from the client. The value 0 disables this timeout. Default value is 0. Range: 0 to 86400 seconds.
NOTE: if timeouts are disabled and an established connection is broken without properly shutting the TCP connection down, the monitor must be rebooted to re-establish a connection.
Table 9: IEC 61850 over Ethernet Configuration
IEC 61850 Mode in the Monitor The monitor can be configured, via CLI as described earlier in this document, to function as an IEC 61850 Server, with the IED name “TMX”. As an IEC 61850 “Server”, it awaits for a request for connection from an IEC 61850 “Client”, on the monitor’s TCP/IP (Ethernet) communications interface over port 102. The monitor supports only one IEC 61850 client connection at a time. Once an IEC 61850 Client is connected to the monitor, it can poll the monitor for any of the data made available as described in the previous section “IEC 61850 Data Description”. The Client also has the option to enable any of the four buffered reports defined for the monitor, also described in the previous
810-1885-00 Rev A © 2011 BPL Global, Ltd. page 35
section. These reports, which are predefined in the monitor, consist of a list of “data objects” or “data attributes”, called a “dataset”. If the respective report is enabled, and if anything in the “dataset” changes, a report consisting of the changed items is automatically sent to the connected client. If no client is connected, the report is buffered (within the memory constraints of the monitor) with the expectation that a client will eventually connect and enable buffered reporting, at which point the “buffered” reports will be sent to the client. On an IEC 61850 network, the IEC 61850-enabled monitor can be “browsed” in a tree view, drill-down, type scheme, and in that way, all the data exposed by the monitor on the IEC 61850 port can be conveniently viewed. The monitor’s IEC 61850 interface connects to the 61850 Station Bus, and the monitor functions as an IEC 61850 Server on the Station Bus. Note that the monitor does not support the IEC 61850 Process Bus, GOOSE messaging, or Sampled Values messaging. There are a variety of IEC 61850 client/browser/explorer programs available on the market. These vary in function and complexity, and their suitability for use with the monitor is a matter of user requirements and preferences.
IEC 61850 Configured IED Description File
There is a “serveron_tmx.cid” (Configured IED Description) file for the monitor. The file can be read from the monitor’s FTP server. (You can also contact customer support to obtain a copy of this file if the monitor’s FTP server is not accessible.) The CID file specifies the monitor’s IEC 61850 configuration. If this file is needed by the IEC 61850 client, it should not be modified other than to change the IP addresses specified within the file to the corresponding addresses for the respective monitor. The CID file stored by the monitor is not writable by the normal user and the file is not intended as a mechanism for reconfiguring the monitor.
