IEC61850 Driver Configuration Section
The information in this document applies to latest revision.
This driver is made by two modules: iec61850driver.dll and iec61850client.exe
Manual configuration:
Step 1:
Browsing of available IEC61850 itemID's
Open a command shell windows and run the command, that will create the file domain_name.sql in C:\scada\project:
cd C:\scada\bin
iec61850client.exe -a server_IP_address -p 102 -t 1000 -e dump_variables
Example:
C:\scada\bin>iec61850client.exe -a 127.0.0.1 -p 102 -t 1000 -e dump_variables
Step 2:
Creation of protocol configuration database
Go to C:\scada\bin and run protocol_configurator.exe
Import the C:\scada\project\domain_name.sql, selecting the C:\scada\project\domain_name.sql with the menu: File->Import->Database from SQL file
At the question: Do you want to create a new database file to hold the imported data?
Answer: Yes
The database name should be your domain name with extension .db
Save it in C:\scada\project
If you do not use your_domain_name.db name, the Step 3 will fail.
Example: simpleIOGenericIO.db
Wait for few seconds the Import Completed confirmation Window
Step 3:
Creation of the new SCADA points
1 - Select the menu: Configure\Configure Units
2 - Press button New
3 - Fill in the edit field Name: IEC
4 - Select Type iec61850driver, flag Unit Enabled and press Configure button
5 - Fill in the Slave IP address, TCP port, number of Items and Poll Intervall in milliseconds.
6 - Press button Apply and wait that the Apply button returns active and then press Exit
7 - Restart monitor.exe
Step 4:
Configure each sample point
8 - Select the menu: Configure\Configure Sample Points
9 - Set Comment, Type, Units and the limits of each new point. Press button Apply
- Set type M_SP_TB_1 for digital point
- Set type M_ME_TF_1 for analog point

Step 5:
HMI configuration with HMI designer
10 - Run the process C:\scada\bin\hmi_designer.exe
11 - Open the XML designer file in C:\scada\project\hmi0.ui
11.1 - Or create from scratch your HMI (dialog) and save it as hmi0.ui in C:\scada\project
11.2 - It is possible to create from scratch your HMI (dialog) and save it as hmi1.ui or hmi2.ui upto hmi9.ui in C:\scada\project
12 - Use the following widget classes
Widget | Class
|
SINGLE POINT LED | PSinglePointLed
|
DOUBLE POINT LED | PDoublePointLed |
SINGLE POINT LED | SinglePointLed |
DOUBLE POINT LED | DoublePointLed
|
SWITCH | PSwitch
|
THERMOMETER | QwtThermo
|
LCD NUMBER | PLCDNumber |
COMMAND BUTTON | QPushButton |
TANK | PTank |
THERMOMETER | PThermometer |
EDIT FIELD | QLineEdit |
BREAKER | Breaker |
13 - Widget names MUST contain the underscore _ as separator between sample point SCADA name and widget ID
For example the widget with SCADA name OPCSample09 and ID 1 has full name: OPCSample09_1
