Is there a limit?<\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> We recommend that no more than 25 devices be used per driver.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Q.<\/b> How can I use .ICD and .SCD files in this driver? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> These files can be imported to create the driver&#8217;s internal cache files, which are used to create tags and to initialize communication more quickly. These cache files can also be created via direct communication, with no need for importing files.<\/p>\n<p>To use these files, follow these procedures:<br \/>\na) Access the driver&#8217;s configuration window (right-click the driver, <b>Settings\u2026<\/b> option).<br \/>\nb) On <b>IEC61850 Device Config<\/b> tab, click <b>Browse SCL Files<\/b> button.<br \/>\nc) A window will open; on it, select the file (.ICD or .SCD) and click <b>Open<\/b>.<br \/>\nd) The relays in the driver will be set up automatically, and you will only need to import the desired tag structure via <b>TagBrowser <\/b>from <b>OffLine <\/b>folder.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Q.<\/b> Why isn&#8217;t the relay&#8217;s IP address set up automatically when using .ICD files? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> This file could be a .CID file whose format has been changed to .ICD. CID files do not have any information on the relay&#8217;s IP address.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Q.<\/b> Why are online tag import (TagBrowser) and communication not working, and neither is the tags structure\/list being displayed in the import folder? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> To work around this situation, you must first check the configuration of all parameters (IP, PSel, SSel, TSel, Rem AP ID, and Rem AE Qual) on <b>IEC61850 Device Config<\/b> tab. Then, make sure <b>Disable <\/b>checkbox is unchecked.<br \/>\n<b>Note<\/b>: You must also check if the device answers to ping messages.<\/p>\n<p><i><br \/>\n<b>Q. <\/b>Why is communication only working in Studio? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> This happens whenever E3 runs in DEMO mode, which does not allow testing the driver at runtime.<\/p>\n<p><i><b>Q.<\/b> Why is communication not working, even though the driver has been set up via .ICD or .SCD files, and its tags have been imported online? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> It may be possible that the variables in the <b>DataSets <\/b>(Reports) are not set up, and\/or <b>Report ID<\/b> is not properly configured in the relay.<\/p>\n<p>To confirm this information, enable <b>Poll Tags not Found in any Report<\/b> option (which causes the driver to periodically retrieve from the device the values of the tags that are set up in it) on <b>IEC61850 General<\/b> tab, and then communicate again.

With OPEN command, the relay does not need to satisfy the CBO, but with CLOSE command it does. Therefore, if the command requires that these conditions be satisfied and then the relay understands it won&#8217;t be able to do so, the command is aborted.<\/p>\n<p>To fix this, there are two types of settings: for simple tags and for block tags, as seen below:<br \/>\na) Simple tag: Check the option <b>Use Cmd Tag N1<\/b> <b>as check condition<\/b> and leave command tag&#8217;s N1 parameter as 0 (that is, the value of both bits remains 0); once it is done, check whether the command is executed. Then, set up N1=3 (that is, both bits are enabled) and see if this issue returns.<br \/>\nb) I\/O blocks: <b>Check Before Operate<\/b> is set up at the block&#8217;s <b>Check <\/b>element.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/kb.elipse.com.br\/pt-br\/images\/ID4724\/Figura%202.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"51\" align=\"Baseline\" border=\"0\" \/><\/div>\n<p><b><br \/>\n<i>Q.<\/i><\/b><i> Why can&#8217;t I send commands to the devices, and yet tag status information is displayed correctly? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>A.<\/b> This probably happens due to the fact the relay is set up to be operated only locally.
