Configuration of Station/Remote switch

Each IED and logical device in the OPC Server has a configuration parameter defining
the OPC node path for the S/R switch that is used for that IED/logical device. If a logical
device does not have an S/R switch path configured, the path defined in the IED is used
instead. At run-time, the S/R path of a logical device can be read from the OPC Server;
the LD S/R switch path is located in the LD node. The OPC server that has the S/R switch
position information must have at least one signal mapped to the OPC client using this
information.
The S/R switch OPC path points to an OPC node modeled according to one of the sup-
ported IEC 61850 data classes. The stVal OPC item of the S/R object presents the state
of the S/R switch, 1 = station and 0 = remote. If the stVal item has the vartype VT_BOOL,
VARIANT_TRUE is interpreted as 1 and VARIANT_FALSE as 0.
The same S/R switch OPC path can be shared by several IEDs/LDs, or each IED/LD
can have an own S/R switch OPC path. The OPC node pointed by the path can be located
in an OPC server providing the S/R information from a physical switch or from a simu-
lated software switch.
The web HMI is considered to be local or remote based on the IP-address of the web
client. The gateway object has a configuration property which defines the addresses that
will be handled as local. It can be either a single IP address or using wild cards a range
of IP addresses.

Event definitions

Creating event definitions

To create event classes:
1. Right-click the Events group in the Communication Engineering Tool (CET), see
Figure 4.3.5.1-1.
2. Select New -> Event classes.
3. Select the event class you want to add.
4. The new event class appears in the Process Definitions below the selected event
group. Enter a unique name for the event class by right-clicking it and selecting
Rename. The new event class can be configured and connected to a data object.
