1.1Overview
This User Manual explains the features of the PLX8x-EIP-61850 EtherNet/IP to IEC 61850 gateway. It guides you through configuring the gateway, showing how
to map IEC 61850 Data Attributes between an Intelligent Electronic Device (IED), through the gateway, and a Rockwell Automation® ControlLogix® or CompactLogix™ (PLC). The configuration software creates files to import into RSLogix™ 5000 programming software, integrating the gateway into your system.
This User Manual provides examples of how to move IEC 61850 Data Attributes using IEC 61850 8.1 MMS messages. The PLC reads and write data to the IED. The gateway uses Class 1 EtherNet/IP I/O messaging to exchange data from the IEDs to the Logix processor. You need to have an Intelligent Electronic Device (IED) and be familiar with it.
IEDs generally come with their own configuration software, and a template IED Capability Description (ICD) file. The template file represents a device that is not configured. Once configured, the device makes a Configured IED Description (CID) file. Some devices can also make a System Configuration Description (SCD) file. Some IEDs generate an ICD file (rather than a CID file) for their configured file, so be sure to have the right file. Please have these files on hand before beginning this process.
For a complete list of features and supported functions of the PLX8x-EIP-61850 gateway, refer to the IEC 61850 PICS Statement, which is available as a separate download at http://www.prosoft-technology.com.

1.4Setting Jumpers
Jumper settings are located on the back of the module.
1.4.1 PLX81-EIP-61850
When the module is manufactured, the port selection jumpers are set to Mode 3. You must set the jumpers to the correct position. The following diagram of the back of the module describes the jumper settings.
Mode 3:
Setup Jumper: This is the top jumper. This must be jumpered when performing a firmware upgrade or when downloading a configuration file to the module. For normal operation, this jumper should be hung on only one pin (not jumpered). Removing the jumper allows for better communications between the IEC and EtherNet/IP driver and the jumper should be removed during running conditions.
Mode 2:
Default IP Jumper: This is the middle jumper. The default IP address of the gateway is 192.168.0.250. Set this jumper to set the gateway's IP address back to the default. For normal operation, this jumper should be hung on only one pin (not jumpered).
Mode 1:
Reserved Jumper: This is the bottom jumper. It is reserved for internal ProSoft Technology use only. For normal operation, this jumper should be hung on only one pin (not jumpered).

1.4.2 PLX82-EIP-61850
For security reasons, the Mode 1 and Mode 2 jumpers are not readily accessible. Under normal conditions, these two jumpers will not be needed. The following diagram illustrates the available Setup Jumper setting.
Setup Jumper:
This mode is jumpered by default. It must be jumpered when performing a firmware upgrade or when downloading a configuration file to the module.
For normal operation, this jumper should be hung on only one pin (not jumpered). Removing the jumper allows for better communications between the IEC and EtherNet/IP driver.

1.7.2 Installing the ProSoft EIP-61850 Configuration Manager
You must install the ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager in order to configure the gateway. The ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager is located on the DVD or www.prosoft-technology.com
Insert the provided DVD into the DVD drive of the PC.
Navigate to your PLX8x-EIP-61850 product.
Choose ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager to install.
NOTE: To use ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager under the Windows 7 OS, you must be sure to install ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager using the Run as Administrator option. To find this option, right-click on the Setup.exe installer program icon, and select Run as Administrator on the context menu. Be aware that you must install using this option even if you are already logged in as an Administrator on your network or personal computer (PC). Using the Run as Administrator option allows the ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager installer to create folders and files on your PC with proper permissions and security. If you do not use the Run as Administrator option, ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager may appear to install correctly, but you will receive numerous, repeating file access errors whenever ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager is running, especially when changing configuration screens. If this happens, you must completely uninstall ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager and then re-install using the Run as Administrator option to eliminate the errors.
1.7.3 Installing the ProSoft EIP-61850 Tag Monitor
ProSoft EIP-61850 Tag Monitor is a way to monitor the data tag values through the gateway. It is automatically installed when you install EIP-61850 Configuration Manager.

To configure the PLX8x-EIP-61850 gateway, follow these topics in the same order as they appear in this chapter.
The reason you import the IEDs before you configure the EtherNet/IP device is that the ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager takes steps to assist with the EtherNet/IP configuration after you set up the IEDs in the EIP-61850 Configuration Manager.
2.1Connecting Your PC to the Gateway
You can use the Ethernet cable included with the gateway to connect your PC to the gateway’s Ethernet port. If your gateways has two Ethernet ports, refer to sections 2.2 through 2.6. Later, you can connect the gateway to a switch, through a patch cable, allowing the IEDs, gateway, and ControlLogix PAC, or CompactLogix PAC to all operate on the same network.
Once connected, you use the ProSoft Discovery Service to locate the gateway and assign a temporary IP address (refer to Setting a Temporary IP Address in the Gateway on page 16). You can set a permanent IP address when you configure the module (refer to Configuring the Gateway EtherNet/IP Adapter on page 19).

2.2Setting a Temporary IP Address in the Gateway
Important: ProSoft Discovery Service locates the gateway through UDP broadcast messages. These messages may be blocked by routers or layer 3 switches. In that case, ProSoft Discovery Service is unable to locate the gateways.
To use ProSoft Discovery Service, arrange the Ethernet connection so that there is no router/layer 3 switch between the computer and the gateway OR reconfigure the router/layer 3 switch to allow the routing of the UDP broadcast messages.
1If you have not installed the ProSoft Discovery Service, refer to Installing the ProSoft Discovery Service on page 14.
2Click the Windows START button, and then choose PROGRAMS > PROSOFT
TECHNOLOGY > PROSOFT DISCOVERY SERVICE.
3Select the module, then right-click and choose ASSIGN TEMPORARY IP.
4 The module’s default IP address is 192.168.0.250.
5 Choose an unused IP within your subnet, and then click OK.

2.3Creating a New Project in the Configuration Manager
You configure the gateway with the ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager software. The first step is creating a project for the gateway.
1If you have not installed the ProSoft EIP-61850 Configuration Manager, refer to Installing the ProSoft EIP-61850 Configuration Manager on page 14.
2Click the Windows START button, and then choose PROGRAMS > PROSOFT
TECHNOLOGY > PROSOFT EIP-61850 CONFIGURATION MANAGER.
The ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager window consists three panes:
The Device View Tree shows the EtherNet/IP device and IEC 61850 configurations. The IEC 61850 Configurations folder, is a list of IED configuration files. This folder is empty until you import IED files.
The Network View pane shows a a graphic representation of the devices to be connected to the gateway. Each device appears as a “bubble”.
The project bubble (ProSoft Gateway) represents the gateway itself.
The IED bubbles (IEC61850) represent the IEC 61850 port on the gateway, and the attached devices.
The EtherNet/IP bubbles (EtherNet/IP Device) represent both the EtherNet/IP port on the gateway, and the attached Ethernet scanners.
The Configured Tags pane shows the configured tags associated with the currently selected “bubble” in the Network View pane.
When you first start the ProSoft EIP-61850 Configuration Manager, the
Device View shows default devices and configuration, and the Network
View shows only the project bubble (ProSoft Gateway Project 1).
3Choose FILE > NEW to create a new project.
4You can rename the project by right-clicking the project bubble and choosing PROPERTIES. You can also double-click the project bubble.

5Enter a new name in PROJECT NAME, and any notes in NOTES, and then click
OK.
6Save the project by choosing FILE > SAVE AS and entering a name for the project.
Note: You need a separate Configuration Manager file for each gateway. You can run multiple instances of the Configuration Manager software at the same time.
Note that the diagram in the Network View does not exactly match the physical hardware. In reality, the IED connects to the 61850 “side” of the gateway, while the EtherNet/IP device connects to the other side. Typically these three devices are connected across a network, rather than connected directly to each other.
2.4Exporting a Project from the Configuration Manager
You can export an ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager file that you created on your PC. Exporting a project includes all the original IED files that you used to create the project into the export file. This allows someone on a different PC to import your configuration file and have all the CID/SCD/ICD files that are part of your project.
Use FILE > EXPORT CONFIGURATION to export your project.

2.5Importing a Project into the Configuration Manager
You can import an ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager file that was created and exported on a different PC. Do not try to open a project file created on another PC, because it does not contain all the IED files that were used to create it. Instead, use FILE > IMPORT CONFIGURATION. This recreates all the CID/SCD/ICD files that were part of the original configuration.
If you open a project not created on your PC instead of importing it, the Device View shows a red slash through the IED files.
2.6Configuring the Gateway EtherNet/IP Adapter
Configuring the gateway sets the permanent IP address for the gateway. It also defines the NTP server that the gateway can poll for the current date and time.
Note: Since the PLX81-EIP-61850 has one physical Ethernet port, both EtherNet/IP and 61850 networks must be on the same subnet.
The PLX82-EIP-61850 has two physical Ethernet ports – one for each protocol. You must configure these ports on different subnets.
1Right-click the ProSoft Gateway bubble and choose PROPERTIES. You can also double-click the ProSoft Gateway bubble.

This displays the Properties dialog.
2Choose the correct gateway model (one or two ports).
3Select the function for the port (IEC 61850 or EtherNet/IP). If the gateway has two ports, one must be IEC 61850 and the other EtherNet/IP).
4Enter the IP address and other network information for the gateway port. o IP Address: The IP address must be a fixed IP address. Contact your
network administrator for assistance.
o Subnet Mask: Enter the gateway’s subnet mask.
oIP Gateway: The IP gateway address is optional, and is not required for networks that do not use a default gateway.
5If the gateway has two ports, enter the network information for the second port.
6Enter the NTP ADDRESS. The gateway polls the server for the current date and time. For example, in the USA, there are a number of time servers and their IP addresses listed at http://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi.
7Enter the NTP UPDATE TIME. This is the polling interval (in minutes) for the current date and time. A value of 0 means the gateway does not poll the NTP server.

2.7Adding EtherNet/IP Device
To add an EtherNet/IP device to the network, click and drag an EtherNet/IP device from the Device View tree into the Network View pane. This creates the
EtherNet/IP Device bubble in the Device View. You use this EtherNet/IP Device bubble to map the tags that you want to make available to an ethernet scanner such as PLC or PAC. Refer to Mapping Tags in the Gateway to EtherNet/IP on page 34.
You can add only one EtherNet/IP device, which you can use to configure both Class 1 and Class 3 connections.
2.8Importing IEDs Files
After you have configured the gateway in the project, the next step is to import the configured IED files into the project. IEDs come with a template ICD file, but an ICD file indicates possible configuration options. It usually does not contain specific configuration information. For instance, ICD files usually do not have an IP Address or other configured elements in them. Once an IED has been configured (using third-party configuration software provided by the IED manufacturer), the manufacturer’s software usually creates a specific CID configuration file. Some third-party software may also create a SCD system configuration file (an SCD usually has multiple IEDs in it).
Note: You can only import configured ICD , CID, and SCD files. These files must be fully configured and saved in the software that is used to configure the IEDs. The configured file must include the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address (if required by the network). Also, each IED must have a unique Device Name and IP address.

2.9Creating the IED Network
After you have imported the IED files , you can create the IED 61950 network in the EIP-61850 Configuration Manager.
To Create the IED Network Configuration
1In the Device View pane of the Configuration Manager, expand the IED file name (700G.CID in this example) by clicking the “+” sign next to the file name.
2Click and drag the IED name (SEL_700G_1 in this example) from the Device View pane into the Network View. When you release the mouse button, the IED is added to the view in an IEC 61850 bubble. The bubble shows the IED Device Name and IP address. These values are from the IED file and cannot be changed in the Configuration Manager.
3Repeat the above steps to add the rest of your IEDs to the Network View pane.
To delete an IED from the Network View
Right-click the IED bubble in the Network View and choose DELETE.
To change the MMS Scan Delay
You can change the MMS Scan Delay for any IED. This is the only property you can change for an IED, as everything else is set in the IED configuration file.
IEC 61850 Reports and GOOSE messages are generated by the IED and are not affected by the MMS Scan Delay. The MMS Scan Delay parameter also has no impact on MMS writes. The lower you set the MMS Scan Delay value, the more network capacity is consumed by MMS Read network traffic. If you do not configure an IED to read any Data Attributes using MMS messages, then this parameter has no effect.
Right-click the IED bubble in the Network View and choose PROPERTIES. By default, the MMS SCAN DELAY is set to 1000 milliseconds.

To locate the IED file
The Configuration Manager stores its own copy of the CID, SCD, or ICD file for this IED.
1Right-click the IED bubble in the Network View and choose PROPERTIES.
2Click the Detailed Properties tab to see the path on your PC where the Configuration Manager stores the file.
2.10Mapping Data Attributes from IEDs to the Gateway
As you add IEDs to the Network View, the ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager reads the device information and builds a list of tags (Data Attributes) from the device file. In this step, you map tags from the IED to the gateway database. This is the first of two steps in mapping data from the IED to the PAC:
1First, you map the tag from the device to the gateway. This creates a location in the gateway database to store the data associated with the tags.
2Second, you map the tag from the gateway database to the gateway Etherenet/IP port. This sets up an MMS data movement (IEC 61850-8-1) to push the data to the Logix processor (if the tag can be read) or to write to data to the D(if the tag can be written). Refer to Mapping Tags in the Gateway to EtherNet/IP on page 34 for this second step.
Note: Remember that you must configure the gateway so that the IP address is in the same subnet as the 61850 relay device. Refer to Configuring the Gateway EtherNet/IP Adapter on page 19.

2.10.1 Mapping MMS Messages
MMS messages can be read-only (read the value from the IED) or write (write the value to the IED).
1In the Network View pane in the EIP-61850 Configuration Manager, right-click the IED bubble that you want to map, and choose CONFIGURE.
This displays the IEC 61850 Mapping Tool window.
2In the treeview on the left, expand (click the + sign) the root folder. This shows the Logical Devices (notice the little LD in the icon) in the IED.
3Expand (click the + sign) on one of the Logical Devices in the IED to see the Logical Nodes (notice the little LN in the icon) within it. Some IED manufacturers provide descriptive information in their CID files. ProSoft ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager displays that information after the Logical Node name.
4Continue to expand the Logical Node to display the Data Object (DO) and finally the individual Data Attributes.

5Click and drag a Data Attribute from the tree into the mapping table on the right. When you drop the Data Attribute, it fills in the table with the following values:
o 61850 PATH to the Data Attribute.
oTAGNAME generated for the Data Attribute. This can be quite long, and is close to the actual Data Attribute name. Most devices have tag names that are short enough to map to RSLogix5000 projects. For tags that exceed this length, the Configuration Manager automatically shortens the
name, ending with a sequence number ( _001, _002, …). o TYPE is the data type for the Data Attribute.
oACCESS: ProSoft ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager determines the read/write access of the tab the tag’s functional constraints.
R indicates data that the gateway can read from the the IED. W indicates data that the gateway can write to the IED.
6To rename a tag, click in the TAGNAME column and type in a new name.
7To delete tags, select the tag or tags in the table, then right-click the selected tags and choose DELETE.
8Repeat until you have mapped the tags for the IED.

9Choose MAPPING > SAVE to save the tag mapping. The mapped tags appear in the Assigned Tags pane at the lower-right of the Configuration Manager when you click the IED bubble.
Note: You can click and drag a higher level object (such as a logical node (LN), a logical device (LD), or the IED to map ALL the child tags descending from the higher level object.
10At this point, you have mapped the tags from the IED to the gateway internal database. If you download the configuration to the gateway at this point, the IEC 61850 Client starts to read the values of the Data Attributes from the IED. The next step is to map the tags from the internal database to the EtherNet/IP output (refer to Mapping Tags in the Gateway to EtherNet/IP on page 34).
11If you want to delete one or more mappings, refer to Deleting one or more IEC 61850 mappings on page 33.
You can map other data from the IED. Refer to:

2.10.2 Mapping Reports
Reports are based upon a DATA-SET, containing a specific collection of Data Attributes. You can configure the gateway to enable an IED’s Buffered Report Control Blocks (BRCBs) or Unbuffered Report Control Blocks (URCBs).
Note: Be sure that the DATA-SET on your IED contains all Data Attributes and not Data Objects.
1In the Network View pane in the EIP-61850 Configuration Manager, right-click the IED bubble that you want to map, and choose CONFIGURE.
This displays the IEC 61850 Mapping Tool window.
