4.3 Using Read from IED and Write to IED
4.3.1 Reading a configuration from an IED
Ensure the IED is online and the communication parameters are correct.
1. In Plant Structure, right-click the IED.
2. Select Read from IED from the shortcut menu.
3. Click Yes to confirm. Clicking No cancels the operation.
The configuration is read from the IED.
4.3.2 Writing a configuration to an IED
Ensure the IED is online and the communication parameters are correct. Writing the
configuration to a wrong IED can result in data loss.
1. In Plant Structure, right-click the IED.
2. Select Write to IED from the shortcut menu.
3. Click Yes to confirm. Clicking No cancels the operation.
The whole configuration is written to the IED.
The common writing from PCM600 to IED overwrites any parameter
changes made locally using the LHMI.
4.4 Using Parameter Setting
Parameter Setting is used for parameterizing the IED units.
1. In Plant Structure, select an IED or a function.
2. On the Tools menu, click Parameter Setting.
Parameter Setting opens in the tool window and displays parameter data for the
selected node. The content of the list displayed depends on the selected level in
Plant Structure. Settings can be sorted into two groups.
• Configuration parameters that specify the operation mode of an
application function or the IED, and are normally configured only once.
• Setting parameters that can be changed in the IED at runtime.
