18.1.2 Application
Pulse-counter logic (PCFCNT) function counts externally generated binary pulses,
for instance pulses coming from an external energy meter, for calculation of energy
consumption values. The pulses are captured by the binary input module (BIM), and
read by the PCFCNT function. The number of pulses in the counter is then reported via
the station bus to the substation automation system or read via the station monitoring
system as a service value. When using IEC 61850–8–1, a scaled service value is
available over the station bus.
The normal use for this function is the counting of energy pulses from external energy
meters. An optional number of inputs from an arbitrary input module in IED can be
used for this purpose with a frequency of up to 40 Hz. The pulse-counter logic
PCFCNT can also be used as a general purpose counter.
18.1.3 Setting guidelines
Parameters that can be set individually for each pulse counter from PCM600:
• Operation: Off/On
• tReporting: 0-3600s
• EventMask: NoEvents/ReportEvents
Configuration of inputs and outputs of PCFCNT is made via PCM600.
