Setting technical key

Both a physical IED and an IED object in PCM600 have a technical key. The
purpose of the technical key is to prevent download of a configuration to wrong
IED. The technical key in the IED and PCM600 must be the same, otherwise it is
not possible to download a configuration. Each IED in a PCM600 project must
have a unique technical key. It is therefor not possible to set the same technical key
for several IEDs in the same PCM600 project.
The technical key property in PCM600 corresponds to the IED
name attribute in SCL files. Avoid changing the IED name attribute
outside PCM600, because data in PCM600 might be lost when
importing SCL files.
The IED technical key and the PCM600 technical key must be the
same for successful communication between the IED and PCM600.
When using PCM600 for writing to the IED, it is important that the
LHMI is not in a menu position where settings can be made. Only
one active transaction, from LHMI or PCM600, is allowed at any
one time.
When writing a configuration to the IED, PCM600 checks the mismatch between
the IED object and the physical IED technical key, if any. For communication
between the IED and PCM600 the technical key must be the same. Users have the
option to read the technical key from the IED and update it to PCM600 or write the
PCM600 technical key to the IED. The user can also define an own technical key.
The error message displayed due to mismatch between PCM600 and IED technical
key is shown in Figure 5.
