Iec 870-5-103 Protocol - GE G30 Instruction Manual

2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The UR automatically detects whether an authentication request is to be handled remotely or locally. As there are only five
local accounts possible on the UR, if the user ID credential does not match one of the five local accounts, the UR automat-
ically forwards the request to a RADIUS server when one is provided.
If a RADIUS server is provided, but is unreachable over the network, server authentication requests are denied. In this situ-
ation, use local UR accounts to gain access to the UR system.
IEC 870-5-103 is a companion standard to IEC 870-5 suit of standards for transmission protocols. It defines messages and
procedures for interoperability between protection equipment and devices of a control system in a substation for communi-
cating on a serial line.
The IEC 60870-5-103 is an unbalanced (master-slave) protocol for coded-bit serial communication, exchanging information
with a control system. In the context of this protocol, the protection equipment is the slave and the control system is the
master. The communication is based on a point to point principle. The master must be able to interpret the IEC 60870-5-
103 communication messages.
The UR implementation of IEC 60870-5-103 consists of the following functions:
• Report binary inputs
• Report analog values (measurands)
• Commands
• Time synchronization
The RS485 port supports IEC 60870-5-103.
