Exercise 1
1. Building the Physical IEC 61850 Network
In this exercise you will build a physical network for IEC 61850 to be able to configure the communication in the following exercises.

1.1 Connecting devices to the IEC 61850 network Connect the devices to the IEC 61850 network according to the IEC 61850 layout picture (chapter 4).

1.2 REF543R Set the SPA address to REF543R feeder terminal. You can find the correct address from the IEC 61850 layout picture. SPA 7

REF543R

If you are unfamiliar with changing the addresses of REF feeder terminals, please read the instructions below.
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Press down the E button down to enter the technical level. Navigate to Communication / SPA / SPA Address. Press E. Give password 2. You can change the digits and move from one digit to the next by using the arrow up/down/left/right keys. Enter the correct address. 6. Press E to accept the change. 7. Navigate back to the main menu and press E to save the parameters and to return to the Mimic view.

1.3 SPA Take in use SPA protocol for the REF feeder terminal. SPA has the transmission rate of 9.6 kbits/s. If you would choose IEC 61850 as the protocol, the transmission rate would be 38.4 kbits/s and you should also define IEC 61850 as the protocol in use in the CET for SPA-ZC 400. FISUB

advisable to open the output window that will display messages related to possible errors.

Add REF543R by right clicking the SPA-ZC 400 with the mouse and navigating to New / Feeder IEDs / REF541,543,545.

2.4 Importing REF configuration You should import the REF configuration .AR-file to your project by right clicking with the mouse on top of REF541,543,545 and by selecting Import. Select the correct file from your hard drive and press Open.

Those function blocks that do not contain information relevant to the IEC 61850 data model are excluded from the tree structure. Press OK.

Select SPA-ZC 400 in the tree hierarchy and right click with the mouse. Select CID Export. Check that the IP address for SPA-ZC 400 is 192.0.2.10 and press Write. At this point the IP address has to be 192.0.2.10 because that is the current address for SPA-ZC 400. The address is changed to 192.168.1.10 when we press write. Save the .CID configuration file on your computer by assigning it a file name and pressing Save.

IEC 61850 EXERCISE 2

Press Yes to accept the change of IP address and gateway. In the Communication Engineering Tool for SPA-ZC 400, we defined a new IP address for SPA-ZC 400. We also need a new default gateway according to the IP address. In our case the default gateway should be 192.168.1.1. This default gateway is actually also the new IP address for your computer. Go to the desktop of your computer and right-click My Network Places. Choose Properties. Right-click Local Area Connection and select Properties. Double-click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Redefine the IP address for your computer. Use address 192.168.1.1 and enter it to the IP address field (see the picture on next page).
