• Creating overview reports for fast evaluation of the recording file content
by using Disturbance Handling
• Reading fault records from the protection relay, saving records to a PC and
clearing old records with Fault Record
• Reading load profile records from the protection relay, saving records to a
PC and clearing old records using Load Profile
• Service management
• Monitoring the selected signals of a protection relay for commissioning or
service purposes by using Signal Monitoring and Event Viewer (including
audit trail)
There are also functions for managing projects and organizing user rights.
• PCM600 user management
• Organizing users regarding their rights, profiles and passwords to use
different tools and tool functions
• Defining allowed activities for user profiles to use tools in PCM600
Once the engineering of the protection relay is finished, the results must be written to
the protection relay.
The connection between the physical IED and PCM600 is established via an Ethernet
link on the HMI or LAN port of the protection relay.

Monitoring and control system structure

The monitoring and control system can be divided into three main parts which require
specific engineering and configuration.
• Bay level devices
• Station communication
• Station level devices
