ProSoft Technology’s IEC 61850 Can Mimic IEDs on ControlLogix® PAC

2/4/2022

You can save time when you take advantage of ProSoft Technology’s IEC 61850 Server Communication Module for ControlLogix®. The Ethernet communication module gives you the ability to use Rockwell Automation’s ControlLogix® PAC to mimic Intelligent Electronic Devices (IED) for IEC 61850 Ethernet network to SCADA systems. Now non-smart devices like transformers and switchgear can display their data as IEC 61850 IEDs to the SCADA System. To streamline your processes there is an add-on instruction that can be used with RSLogix™ 5000 and Studio 5000™ as well as remote diagnostics that can be viewed through controller tags using your ControlLogix processor. The add-on instructions also give you logical definitions for I/O, module status, control data easing configuration, and maintenance of the communication module. With ProSoft Discovery Service (PDS) software, you can set up the module’s IP address without having to change your PC to the default subnet of the module. When you incorporate ProSoft’s MVI56E-61850S Ethernet Communication Module with your automation devices, you are assured to save time and have the ability to simplify your processes.
