Issued: January 2009

Revision: B / 23 Oct 2009

1. Description

COM600, the station automation device of

ABB, is an all-in-one communication gateway,

automation platform and user interface solu-

tion for utility and industrial distribution sub-

stations. The gateway functionality provides

seamless connectivity between substation

IEDs and network-level control and manage-

ment systems. The automation platform with

its logic processor makes COM600 a ﬂexible

implementation platform for substation-level

automation tasks. As a user interface solu-

tion COM600 accommodates web technol-

ogy based functionalities providing access to

substation devices and processes via a web

browser based human machine interface

(HMI).

The COM600 design process has been

guided by the IEC 61850 standard for com-

munication and interoperability of substa-

tion equipment. The communication gateway

functionality of COM600 supports a variety

of commonly used communication protocols

of substation devices. For even greater con-

nectivity, OPC data access and OPC alarms

and events are supported to enable informa-

tion sharing and control with, for example, a

distributed control system (DCS).

The IEC 61131-3 based logic processor can be

programmed to execute automatic sequences

directly via communications media. Further,

the logic processor enables the creation of

both simple control programs and more so-

phisticated applications like load shedding or

fault isolation and network restoration.

The COM600 hardware platform is based on

ruggedized mechanics with no moving parts

subject to wear and tear. Thus, the compact

and robust design is well adapted for harsh

environments. The preinstalled software

and the off-line conﬁguration performed on

a separate computer contribute to a faster

project execution.

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-

6 substation conﬁguration language (SCL)

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

, Opera or Microsoft

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.

The single line diagram can be conﬁgured

to include an indication for the local/remote

selection switch. Alarm symbols and generic

symbols can be places in the SLD to give an

even better overview of the status. In addi-

tion, generic control buttons can be added

to control objects. A separate control dialog

is used for controlling the switching device.

It provides information on switching device

identiﬁcation, reservation status and inter-

locking conditions. The select-before-execute

logic is used to prevent unintended opera-

tion. By reserving the switching device for a

single user the risk of controlling the device

from two different locations is eliminated.

Further, COM600 supports the tap changer

function for the RE 500 series transformer

terminals.

Connection examples:

COM600 has by default four serial ports. The

number of serial ports can be increased using

the optional serial card. The four serial ports

enable the connection and combination of

different serial protocols. For example 3 SPA

+ 1 IEC 101 protocol or 2 SPA + 1 IEC 103 +1

IEC 101 protocol.

COM600 can as an option be equipped with

a LON-card enabling the connection of one

plastic or glass LON interface. Alternatively

the number of Ethernet interfaces can be

increased by choosing the optional Ethernet

extension card.

3. Parameter setting

The parameter setting tool (PST) is used for

viewing and/or setting parameters in IEDs

supporting transparent SPA, Modbus or

IEC 61850 parameterization. The PST enables

activation of the parameter setting function

for the chosen IEDs. In addition, it enables

that only selected parameters are shown in

the web HMI of COM600 limiting the number

of visible parameters to the ones that are

considered important for the user. Changes in

the settings require that the user has engi-

neering or administrator rights in COM600.

4. Event and alarm lists

Events and alarms are identiﬁed by date,

time, bay, device, object description or status.

Furthermore, the events and alarms can be

automatically ﬁltered according to voltage

level or bay criteria. Maximum memory ca-

pacity is 65535 events. First-in, ﬁrst-out logic

is used for overwriting events. The user can

export an event list to a .csv ﬁle for further

analysis. COM600 supports printing of events

to an Event Printer for long time archiving.

5. Disturbance record

handling

COM600 automatically downloads distur-

bance records from the connected IEDs. The

disturbance records are saved in the stand-

ard COMTRADE format. In-depth analysis

is enabled using ABB’s Wineve software or

any other commercially available disturbance

record analyzer supporting the COMTRADE

format. Downloading of disturbance records

requires use of the IEC 61850-8-1 communi-

cation protocol.

6. Data historian

The COM600 data historian is a real-time

database designed and optimized for process

information management and extensive his-

tory recording. The data historian is based on

ABB’s cpmPlus Knowledge Manager software.

It combines the beneﬁts of an easy-to-use

real-time database with industrial reliability,

performance, and real-time functionality to

provide an excellent platform for process

information management. The data historian

can be used for accurate process perform-

ance monitoring by following process and

equipment performance calculations with

real-time and history values. Better under-

standing of the process behaviour by join-

ing time-based process measurements with

production and maintenance events helps

the user to understand the process dynamics.

It further provides required information for

learning how to keep the process running.

High performance and reliability, together

with maintenance-free operation, provide a

solid platform for trending. The optional data

historian functionality offers means of stor-

ing, analyzing and presenting process data.

Please note that displaying of data historian

information using the HMI requires that Mi-

crosoft Internet Explorer is used.

7. Logic processor

COM600 offers an straightforward approach

to the languages speciﬁed by the IEC 61131-3

standard for programmable logic controllers

(PLC). The programmable logic processor in

COM600 is offered as a selectable software

option. The PLC programming system ena-

bles programming and execution of auto-

mation tasks. In addition, the IEC 61131-3

programming in COM600 offers on-line and

off-line functionality for engineering and

diagnostics.

The logic process can be used for applica-

tions such as grouping of signals or tripping

of all bus breakers, if one of the breakers

fails to clear the fault. COM600 collects any

analog or binary IED data using standard

serial and TCP/IP based protocols such as

IEC 61850, DNP3 or Modbus. In the created

logic, the logic processor, use the analog and

binary data from the IEDs. The output of the

created logic can be sent to the IEDs for trip-

ping or alarm purposes.

8. Access control and

substation security

To protect COM600 from unauthorized ac-

cess and to maintain information integrity,

COM600 is provided with a four-level, role-

based authentication system with administra-

tor-programmable individual passwords for

the viewer, operator, engineer and admin-

istrator level. Further, the security features

include host-based ﬁrewalls and communi-

cation encryption using the secure HTTPS

(hypertext transfer protocol secure) protocol.

9. Substation integration

COM600 provides connectivity to a range

of ABB systems. The connectivity to ABB’s

low voltage motor control center MNS iS is

provided using an OPC server in COM600.

COM600 receives data from the MNSiS devic-

es and provides a human-machine interface

(HMI) and gateway functionality for a smooth

integration. Further, COM600 offers connec-

tivity to ABB’s Automation System 800xA and

MicroSCADA by means of OPC or other com-

munication protocols.

10. Integration of ABB

IEDs

COM600 supports ABB’s connectivity pack-

age concept which simpliﬁes system conﬁgu-

ration and integration of IEDs. A connectivity

package is a collection of software and spe-

ciﬁc IED information, which enable system

products and tools to connect and interact

with the IED. The connectivity packages re-

duce the risk of errors in system integration,

minimizing device conﬁguration and set-up

times. The engineering in COM600 is done by

selecting the connectivity package for the IED

version and conﬁguration or by importing the

conﬁguration ﬁle from the IED.

11. Commissioning and

troubleshooting

COM600 offers several tools and functions to

support efﬁcient commissioning and trou-

bleshooting of the substation. The built-in

IED simulation functionality enables testing

and verifying of the correct operation of the

HMI and gateway conﬁguration of COM600

without any physical connection of IEDs.

Further, communication diagnostic events can

be enabled to track all messages being sent

by or received from the IEDs.

Using the Station Automation Builder 600

(SAB600) tool provided with COM600 on-

line diagnostic data, real-time process data,

the communication channels and the control

function of the IEDs can be analyzed without

separate protocol analyzers.

12. Communication

redundancy

To maintain and improve the reliability of the

communication network and the communi-

cation between the IEDs and COM600, IEC

62439/PRP (parallel redundancy protocol)-

based communication is supported. PRP is

based on duplicated networks, where each

message is sent via both networks. The ﬁrst

of the received messages is accepted whereas

the duplicate is discarded. Message replica-

tion and discarding is done by the DuoDriver

in COM600. Further, the DuoDriver hides

the two networks from upper level applica-

tions. IEC 62439/PRP-based communication

requires that COM600 is equipped with the

optional LAN card and that the IEDs used

support PRP.

In addition, COM600 supports switch fault

tolerance (SFT) provided that the optional

LAN-card and COM600 are connected to

two separate switches. SFT creates a failover

relationship between the two adapters con-

nected to separate switches. The manager

responsibility is transferred from one agent

to the other in case of a failure. The Switch

Fault Tolerance feature of the Intel network

adapter requires the Teaming Feature to be

enabled.

14. Tools

Engineering of COM600 is done ofﬂine on a

separate computer using the Microsoft

.NET-

based SAB600 engineering tool supplied with

COM600. The conﬁgurability and functionali-

ty of COM600 depends on the communication

protocol used for communication between

COM600 and the IEDs. The connectivity pack-

ages for ABB’s protection and control IEDs

enable an efﬁcient conﬁguration of COM600.

The connectivity packages include descrip-

tions of the data and signals available in the

IEDs. The descriptions are used to automati-

cally conﬁgure the master communication of

COM600.

At project engineering SAB600 uses the

potential of the IEC 61850 standard by sup-

porting the IEC 61850 based SCL (Substation

Conﬁguration Description Language) ﬁle

import, including the import of the communi-

cation and graphical parts of the SCL-ﬁle. The

ﬁnalized projects are updated from SAB600

to COM600 at site or remotely provided that a

secure Ethernet connection is available.
