Product OverviewThe PCS series communication device, developed by NR Electric based on integrated automation system research and site operation experience, provides communication functions for substations and power plants. The PCS-COMM configuration and debugging tool is the companion software for configuring, managing and commissioning these communication devices. It is built on object-oriented architecture, networked database technology and cross-platform visualization, and fully supports IEC60870-5-103, IEC61850 and other international standards to meet configuration and commissioning requirements in traditional and digital substations as well as power plants.
Functions- IED configuration and management: configure all IEDs connected to the PCS series communication device and view each IED's configuration.
- Offline configuration: set access and transfer rules for PCS devices to match site-specific requirements before deployment.
- Visual/device configuration: graphical and symbolic tools to simplify device configuration; most operations are completed with a few mouse clicks.
- Online debugging: integrated download and debugging capabilities — configured schemes can be downloaded to PCS devices and device status can be monitored and debugged online.
