1. Description

PCM600 version 2.0 SP2 is a management tool for signal configuration, parameter set-ting, disturbance handling and monitoring of protection relays, terminals and IEDs. The management tool fully complies with the IEC 61850 standard, which simplifies engineering and enables information exchange with other IEC 61850 compliant devices. PCM600 further supports the TCP/IP protocol for data transfer between the IEDs and the tool.

PCM600 provides the functionality required for commissioning, operation, monitoring and engineering of IEDs. PCM600 uses ABB’s IED-specific connectivity packages, which ensure that appropriate IED basic data are being used in the tool.

PCM600 version 2.0 SP2 does not support the configuration of the 670 series protection and control IEDs. Users of the 670 series IEDs are currently encouraged to use PCM600 version 1.5 SP2.

2. Tool variants

PCM600 is available in two variants: PCM600 and PCM600 Engineering Pro. The PCM600 Engineering Pro variant offers, in addition to the functionality of PCM600, IEC 61850 peer-to-peer (GOOSE) communication configura-tion.

3. Connectivity packages

PCM600 incorporates ABB’s connectivity package concept, which simplifies protection engineering and reduces the risk of errors. The connectivity packages, which are down-loadable from ABB’s web portal, make config-urations and IED data readily available to the PCM600 tool. The packages further contain a comprehensive description of the IED, includ-ing data signals, parameters, measurements, and IED documentation.

4. Parameter setting

The parameter setting tool of PCM600 allows the user to view and set IED parameters lo-cally or remotely. The settings can be upload-ed from the IED to PCM600 or downloaded from PCM600 to the IED while the IED is in service.

The parameter setting function can be used in two different modes. The normal mode allows the IED protection engineer to quickly view and change the most commonly used parameters, whereas the advanced mode un-veils all parameters that can be set.

PCM600 further offers a filtering function allowing the user to view all IED parameters or the parameters related to a specific func-tion block. In addition, the user can choose to only view parameters that have been changed or parameters with values deviating from the IED’s setting. Changed parameters with different values in the tool and in the IED are clearly indicated.

5. Signal configuration

The graphical signal matrix tool of PCM600 is used for signal configuration. The signal matrix tool enables binary input and out-put signals to be connected to the standard configuration. The tool also connects the visual indication of the protection functions to the alarm LEDs on the IED’s user interface. The standard configuration can be changed by adding or removing connections between functions.

In addition to the standard functions of PCM600, the Engineering Pro variant of-

fers means to connect the GOOSE (Generic Object Oriented System-Wide Events) signals between the IEDs. In a system based on IEC 61850, GOOSE messaging is used for time critical messages.

Once the IEDs have been configured and parameterized, PCM600 enables the configu-ration of the horizontal bay-to-bay commu-nication for station-wide interlocking, and sending of the complete IED description to a system engineering tool.

6. Signal monitoring

The signal monitoring function provides the user with online information about the measured values and displays the status of binary input and output signals. Furthermore, PCM600 facilitates commissioning and testing of physical connections by allowing the user to activate both analog and binary signals via the signal monitoring tool (forcing of signals).

7. Disturbance handling

PCM600 offers efficient handling and moni-toring of disturbance records from the IEDs. The disturbance files, stored in the standard COMTRADE format, allow the user to view the disturbance record using the included Wavewin software or any commercially avail-able disturbance analyzer supporting the COMTRADE format. If required, the report layout and contents can be adapted to user-specific needs.

By means of the task scheduler of PCM600, the records can be set to be automatically transferred from the IED. The task sched-uler is an independent process and does not require PCM600 to be activated. After receiv-ing the file, PCM600 automatically creates a disturbance report, which can immediately be forwarded to subscribers by e-mail. Such a notification shortens the time from distur-bance detection to corrective action.

8. Event viewer

The event viewer of PCM600 enables the user to view the IEDs’ sequence-of-events infor-

mation including time stamps. The event log facilitates detailed pre- and post-fault analy-ses of faults and disturbances.

9. Communication configuration and management

PCM600 incorporates two communication tools: the communication management tool and the communication configuration tool. The communication management tool is available in both the standard PCM600 tool and in the Engineering Pro variant, whereas the communication configuration tool is available only in the PCM600 Engineering Pro variant.

The communication management tool is used for configuring DNP3, IEC 60870-5-103 and Modbus® communication. The Modbus® configuration allows the user to view the bit address, the signal name and the signal de-scription. When required, the signals can be disabled and enabled.

The communication configuration tool, avail-able in PCM600 Engineering Pro, is used for configuring the IEC 61850 GOOSE (Generic Object Oriented System-Wide Events) com-munication between the IEDs. GOOSE com-munication is used for time critical messaging between the IEDs.

10. Project explorer

Using the project explorer of PCM600 the user is able to create a plant structure with substations, voltage levels, bays and IEDs. A new plant structure can also be created by use of IED templates. This enables the reuse

ABB 7


PCM600


1MRS756448 C

of existing IED configurations. IEDs, bays, voltage levels or a whole substation can be copied and pasted in the plant structure. Se-lection of a specific IED in the project explor-er gives access to the IED’s function blocks.

The function of importing and exporting descriptions of IEC 61850 substation con-figurations, configured devices and device functionality allows information to be shared with other engineering and system integra-tion tools.

By using the filtering feature of the project explorer the user can choose to view only function block specific parameters in the parameter setting tool.

11. User management

PCM600 supports access management both for the tool and the IEDs. The user accounts in PCM600 can be linked to Windows user accounts or be defined as separate user ac-counts for PCM600. The user management feature allows the administrator to create user groups with different access rights and profiles.

The access management for the IEDs can be enabled or disabled with the IED user man-agement tool in PCM600. This tool is also used for setting and changing passwords for the IED’s different user levels.

12. Integrated help menus

All the necessary instructions for using the management tool are integrated in PCM600. Context sensitive help menus and tool tips provide the user with information about the

selected tools. The IED documentation and guides available in the IED’s connectivity package can be directly accessed from the IED’s context menu.

13. Data transfer

PCM600 offers improved data transfer be-tween the IEDs and the IED management tool. The IEDs can be accessed remotely us-ing the TCP/IP protocol via a local area net-work (LAN) and standard Ethernet cables, a secured wide area network (WAN), a secured wireless network (WLAN) or, locally, using the IEDs’ front communication port.
