communication addresses and HW

Application configuration structure

Contains the configuration data

configured with ACT.

Technical Key
( t applicable
(not

i )

SA-T Training
Slide 16
1MRG003731 B

Is used for security reasons, more

difficult to communicate with the wrong
IED since the technical key at IED
object in PCM600 and in physical IED
must match.

Unique identifier for each object in the

Plant Structure

Is set automatically by PCM600

Can be modified by the user

To synchronize PCM600 and IED

technical key, use the
Set Technical Key Tool

To change the technical key in

PCM600 only, go to object properties
for the IED object

Section 3

Set Technical Key

Section 3

Hardware Configuration

Compare configuration

Reads hardware configuration from the

IED and compares with the HW
configuration made in PCM600

Before you do any other configuration

e g with ACT or SMT
e.g.

Make sure that the HW configuration

matches with your physical IED

If not,
you might need to spend time for
reconfigure of your IED.
