Verifying the communication

Connect your PC to the substation network and ping the connected IED and the Substation
Master PC, to verify that the communication is working (up to the transport layer). Make sure
that the optical fibers are connected correctly.
After checking the communication, it is time to verify the IEEE C37.118/1344 communication
over both TCP and UDP protocols.
One way to verify the communication up to the application layer is to use a protocol analyzer
connected to the substation bus, and monitor the communication. Alternatively, the PMU
Connection Tester tool can be used to verify the IEEE C37.118/1344 communication. The

• Now it should be possible to see the streaming synchrophasor data. In the Graph tab,
observe the Frequency, data Reporting Rate, Phasor names, and Phase angles of the
reported synchrophasors. Observe the real-time frame details of the Data Frame in the
bottom of the window.
