CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS
TxGOOSE
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > TxGOOSE > Access Points to access
the settings that are common to all GOOSE messages published.
The following settings are available.
PORT1 GOOSE ENABLE
Range: Enabled, Disabled
Default: Enabled
When set to Disabled, no GOOSE messages are published on C30 Ethernet port 1, and any GOOSE messages received on
port 1 are ignored. When set to Enabled, all enabled GOOSE messages are published on C30 Ethernet port 1, and any
GOOSE messages received on port 1 are listened to.
C30 Ethernet ports 2 and 3 each have a similar setting.
TxGOOSE UPDATE TIME
Range: 1 to 60 s in steps of 1 s
Default: 60 s
This setting specifies the time interval between heartbeat messages, which are messages that are sent periodically
while no events are detected. The standard suggests that the heartbeat time be less than (actually half) of the
timeAllowedtoLive parameter, which is set by the TxGOOSE TIME TO LIVE settings described later.
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > TxGOOSE > TxGOOSE1 to access the
settings for the first TxGOOSE. The settings and functionality for the others are similar.
TxGOOSE1 FUNCTION
Range: Enabled, Disabled
Default: Enabled
When set to Disabled, TxGOOSE1 messages are not published. When set to Enabled, TxGOOSE1 messages are published.
When TxGOOSE1 to 8 are set to Disabled in EnerVista and subsequently Enabled by writing via MMS, the panel continues
to read Disabled until relaunched. There is no polling capability to update automatically the IEC 61860 readings, so the
panel needs to be closed then opened for the correct status to display.
TxGOOSE1 GoID
Range: 0 to 129 VisibleString characters
Default: TxGOOSE1
The entered value sets the goID value published in TxGOOSE1 messages, and can be used by subscribers to discriminate
the TxGOOSE1 messages from other GOOSE messages.
