User's Manual
1. Building the object tree and configuring the object properties for OPC servers
(process communication).
2. Building the substation object tree and configuring the object properties for HMI
functions.
3. Activating COM600 with a new configuration.
First, build an object tree by adding objects to the object tree. For more information refer
to the respective user's manual listed in 1.10, Related documents. Connectivity packages
for certain protection and control products usually contain preconfigurations and tools
to facilitate the building of the object tree.

Building and configuring object structures

Naming conventions

Objects in the communication structure shall follow the nam-
ing conventions defined in the IEC61850-7-2, chapter Naming
Conventions.

OPC servers

Start the configuration work from the server objects. Before an OPC client can be taken
into use, configure an OPC server for the process communication.
The object tree is built in the communication tab of SAB600. There are several possible
ways to build an object tree. One of them is to build the object tree by adding objects in
logical order starting from the OPC server object. You can either use basic or pre-defined
objects. Using basic objects means that you have to configure the objects manually. If
objects are pre-defined, they are preliminary configured and all the necessary child
objects are automatically added.
Add the objects in the following order:
1. OPC server object
2. Channel/Subnetwork object depending on protocol
3. Device object
4. Logical device object(s)
5. Logical node object(s)
6. Data objects.
