IEC 61850 communication depends on the proper communication configuration in all IEDs that communicate via IEC 61850.

It is possible to make a configuration change in one IED, without affecting the horizontal communication (GOOSE or IEC 61850-9-2 LE) engineering between IEDs. For example, when the Application Configuration tool configuration is changed, but no changes are done to the instantiation or deletion of functions that represent a logical node.

When a changed configuration is written to the IED, the horizontal communication configuration needs to be updated.

  1. Select which configuration part to include in writing.
    • Select GOOSE to update the GOOSE configuration part in the IED.
    • Select Process bus (IEC 61850-9-2) to update the IEC 61850-9-2 configuration part in the IED.

      The options can be left unselected. In this case, other parts of the configuration are updated.

  2. Select whether or not to update the configuration.
    • Click Continue to update the selected communication configuration parts in the IED.
    • Click Cancel to cancel the writing operation.
