2. Application

COM600 provides gateway functions for map-
ping signals between protection and control
IEDs in industrial or utility substations and
higher-level systems. It further includes an
optional HMI that provides data and informa-
tion from the substation to the users.
COM600 gathers data from protection and
control IEDs and from process devices us-
ing different communication protocols. The
supported protocols can be combined freely
in one station computer, limited only by
the number of hardware interfaces and the
license. COM600 uses web technology to dis-
play data to different users in a professional
and user-friendly manner. The optional slave
protocols enable the transfer of information
to a network control centre (NCC) or distrib-
uted control system (DCS).
COM600 benefits from the potential of the
IEC 61850 standard by using the IEC 61850-
EMS/

and IEC 61850 -7 communications modeling
regardless of protocol used. As the IEC 61850
data modeling is used for all communication
protocols the gateway cross-reference is done
in the same way regardless of the protocol,
for example IEC 61850-8-1 or DNP3.
COM600 can by using the optional web HMI
(requires Mozilla Firefox
Internet Explorer with Adobe SVG viewer
3.03) be used for efficient substation visu-
alization, monitoring and control. Measured
values from process devices are displayed on
the HMI. Single-line diagrams can be used to
view any available measured values from the
process devices.
All primary single-line diagram (SLD) devices
are displayed in one screen. The SLD recog-
nizes different voltage levels and different
busbar systems such as single busbar, double
busbar and duplex systems. The four-mode
busbar coloring visualizes the busbar status.
The coloring of the busbar is user configura-
ble.
