PROSOFT PLX82-EIP-61850

PROSOFT   PLX82-EIP-61850   EtherNet/IP™ Server to IEC61850 Client Gateway

The ProSoft Technology® EtherNet/IP™ to IEC 61850 communication gateway allows Rockwell Automation® PACs to interface with IEC 61850 Intelligent Electronic Devices (IED) such as substation power monitors and relays. The gateway acts as an IEC 61850 Client polling the devices on your network.

The two ports allow the IEC 61850 and EtherNet/IP™ protocols to reside on separate subnets. 

Features

 The supplied configuration software enables you to import all of your relevant IED tags into your Logix® controller tag database,reducing configuration time and errors

 Multiple EtherNet/IP™ I/O connections give you large amounts of data to transfer in a real time environment

 Standards-based identification of device types simplifies implementation and maintenance

Specifications – IEC 61850 Client

Supports up to 20 IEDs on the network with a maximum of 300 data attributes each.(max number of data attributes is determined by user configured data types and size of user configured data points)

Specifications – SNTP/NTP Client

The gateway supports a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP/NTP) client service that can synchronize the gateway’s time by periodic update requests to a Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) system. The user can configure the SNTP/NTP server details in ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager. The resolution of the time is in milliseconds (ms).

Specifications – EtherNet/IP™ Server

The gateway supports multiple communication methods to fit your application. In addition,it features multiple EtherNet/IP™ I/O Connections. (20 maximum, providing support for 10,000 bytes of input data and 9920 bytes of output data)
