PCM600 Getting Started Guide
A preconfigured IED includes all information related to the IED object in PCM600. Preconfigurations are bound to a specific hardware configuration. The License Update tool is needed to ensure that the configuration is compatible with the ordered device.
  1. In Plant Structure, right-click an IED group or a bay and select Import.
  2. Select the preconfiguration file saved in .pcmi format and click Open.
    The preconfiguration file is imported to the Plant Structure.
  3. If needed, modify the configuration using the Application Configuration tool.
  4. Write the configuration data to the IED by right-clicking the IED in Plant Structure and selecting Write to IED.
    • Click Yes to write the configuration data to IED.
    • Click No to cancel the operation.
    Tip: You can rename the preconfigured IED in the Plant Structure by selecting the IED and pressing F2.
    Tip: The ordered default configurations are not locked, and can be used as a base for other configurations providing that all the needed hardware and software options are available.
