IEC 61850 Client Communication Module for ControlLogix

MVI56E-61850C

The ProSoft Technology IEC 61850 communication module allows Rockwell Automation ControlLogix PACs to interface with IEC 61850 Intelligent Electronic Devices (IED) such as substation power monitors and protective relays. The module operates as an IEC 61850 Client supporting the polling of devices using MMS messaging and reports. Additionally, support for GOOSE messaging as both a publisher and subscriber allows for fast data transfer between devices on an IEC 61850 network.

The dual Ethernet ports on the module provide support for Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP), and the module supports IEEE C37.238-2017 Power Profile for precision time synchronization of field devices.

Features and Benefits

  • Support for up to 40 IEC 61850 Server devices on the network.
  • Support for MMS, MMS Reports, GOOSE publisher, GOOSE subscriber, and control functions on an IEC 61850 Network.
  • Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) supported for Ethernet redundancy with compatible devices.
  • Time synchronization based on Precision Time Protocol (PTP) support per C37.238-2017 standard (ordinary and boundary clock mode supported).
  • The supplied configuration software enables you to import all of your relevant IED tags into your Logix controller tag database, reducing configuration time and errors.
  • Up to 225 I/O connections to the ControlLogix processor providing large amounts of data to transfer in a real-time environment.
  • Standards-based identification of device types simplifies implementation and maintenance.
