IEC 61850 Client

This adapter connects to an MMS server and reads the device and node information.

The connector thus provides a basic interface for the internationally established communication standard IEC 61850 for the automation of switchgears. It acts as a client and can receive messages as classic client-server communication.

Properties

Operation

Defines the operation executed by the adapter

Possible values:

  • RequestServerNodes: Search for certain devices and/or nodes and read the values
  • RequestServerModel: Query the device and node directory for the MMS server and output it as XML

Parameters

Main adapter class (do not change!)

Possible values: de.softproject.integration.adapter.iec.IEC61850 : Main class (default)

address

The MMS server's IP address or host name

Possible values: Any valid string (e. g. 192.168.1.1)

port

The MMS server's port number

Possible values: Any integer

authenticationParameter

Optional login parameter to log onto the MMS server

responseTimeout

Time limit for the server request in milliseconds

Possible values:

  • Any integer

  • 0: No time limit

  • 20000: Cancel server request after 20 seconds

messageFragmentTimeout

Time limit between two incoming data packages in milliseconds

Possible values:

  • Any integer

  • 0: No time limit

  • 20000: Cancel connection after 20 seconds

maxTPDU

Sets the maximum TPDU (Transfer Protocol Data Unit)

Possible values: Any integer

maxMMSPDU

Sets the maximum MMS PDU

Possible values: Any integer between 64 and 65000

Status values

1 (successful)

The request was successful and a result was returned

-1 (failed)

The request failed due to a technical error

Input

Operation RequestServerModel

The operation RequestServerModel doesn't require any input XML document.

Operation RequestServerNodes

The operation RequestServerNodes expects an input XML document, which is structured as follows:

XML
<RootElement>
	<!-- @Fc is optional; @ObjectReference is required -->
	<Node ObjectReference="ied1lDevice1/LPHD1"/>		<!-- Returns all nodes and devices within ied1lDevice1/LPHD1 -->
	<Node ObjectReference="ied1lDevice1/LPHD1" Fc="MX"/><!-- Returns all nodes and devices within ied1lDevice1/LPHD1 with the function code MX  -->
</RootElement>


Output

Operation RequestServerModel

The operation RequestServerModel returns an XML document, which is structured as follows:

XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ServerModel>
	<LogicalDevice Name="ied1lDevice1" ObjectReference="ied1lDevice1">
		<LogicalNode Name="LLN0" ObjectReference="ied1lDevice1/LLN0">

			</FcDataObject>
		</LogicalNode>
	</LogicalDevice>
</ServerModel>

Operation RequestServerNodes

The operation RequestServerNodes returns an XML document, in which the corresponding node of the input XML is extended by the response:
