PCM600 2.12 Installation

===============================================================================

The installation procedure is described in the installation guide, which

is available in the installation file and on the web at

https://new.abb.com/medium-voltage/distribution-automation/engineering-tools/protection-and-
control-ied-manager-pcm600

===============================================================================

Known limitation and supporting information about this release

===============================================================================

--------------------------

Application Configuration:

==========================
Group signals can not be monitored through ACT Online Monitoring. Such

connected signals will appear with value [0] always shown next to them when

Online Monitoring is in progress.

Application Configuration: Online operation (Read/Write, Online monitoring

etc.) of some older IED configuration may cause save button enabled and a

dialog may come asking to save the configuration because of new PCM600

capabilities. In order to do online operation user should save the

configuration and rewrite the configuration to IED.

Application Configuration: Glue logics are not saved to MainApplication

templates. If glue logics are needed, user must use the IED (Intelligent

Electronic Device) templates.

Application Configuration: If signals are inverted in ACT (Application

Configuration Tool), they will be invisible in SMT (Signal Matrix Tool).

------------------

Common Read Write:

==================

Common Read Write: If read or write operation fails, canceling the operation

might take minutes.

Common Read Write: Validator Tool does not currently validate Application

Configuration Layout. The Application shall be validated in ACT before

downloading.

--------------

Communication:

==============

Communication: PCM600: If you get an error of detaching database while


exporting the project, restart PCM600 and export the project again.

Communication: After modifying the IEC61850 horizontal communication in the IEC

61850 Configuration tool or any other system engineering tool, user needs also

to verify the configuration in Signal Matrix.

Communication: PCM600 2.10 and earlier versions use PCLTA cards from Echelon

(now Dialog Semiconductor) for communicating to LON IEDs via compatible

drivers. However, there are no 64-bit compatible PCLTA drivers available.

PCM600 2.11 supports only 64-bit operating systems due to Microsoft SQL server

2019 requirements. Due to the lack of compatible drivers PCM600 2.11 cannot

support existing LON IEDs using PCLTA cards. However, Customers using PCM600

2.10 or older product versions can continue to use LON IEDs if the PCM600

product is being used from a supported 32-bit Windows OS with compatible PCLTA

drivers.

-------------

Installation:

=============

If one PC has several PCM600 versions installed, user gets errors after

uninstallation of one of the versions. Running repair installation of the

effected version fixes the situation. Repair installation can be executed from

Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs in Windows.

------------------------

Parameter Setting (PST):

========================

Parameter Setting: Some IED (Intelligent Electronic Device) parameters are

unitless, so PCM600 Option dialog for changing length and temperature settings

does not affect them.


-------

PCM600:

=======

PCM600: When PCM600 is started, it tries to open the most recently used

project, and if this fails, an error dialog may be displayed behind the

active window. Ctrl + Tab key combination is needed to bring the error dialog

to front.

PCM600: On some occasions, user might get an error like this: "DataTable

internal index is corrupted". The problem is described in Microsoft's Knowledge

Base (http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/KB932491). Workaround is to restart PCM600

after the error appears.

----------

Scheduler:

==========

Scheduler: Please refer to PCM600 Cyber Security Deployment Guide for setting

up Scheduler.

----------------------------------------

SCL (Substation Configuration Language):

========================================

SCL: Maximum number of report control blocks shouldn't be defined to be more

than IED (Intelligent Electronic Device) can handle. Please refer to IED

documentation.

----------------------------------------

ICM (IED Configuration Migration):

========================================

ICM: It is not recommended to use datasets names that ends with


_[CHAR][CHAR][CHAR] pattern so 1-3 upper case characters after underscore. This

PCM600 interpretes as splitted default datasets and this leads to migration

errors.
