Setting up a G3200 gateway

Use these instructions to set up a G3200 gateway in Power Operation.

For use with multiple devices

Before you begin, create the ICD files for each unique device type that will communicate via the G3200.

In the Profile Editor

  1. Import each unique ICD file.
  2. Create the profiles for each device.
  3. Modify existing profiles, as needed (adding/modifying tags, etc.).
  4. Create the project that will include the G3200 (mark profiles under the G3200 as data concentrated devices).
    1. Ensure that Add As Default is not checked for the project.
    2. Add the first device profile.
    3. At the Select Profiles screen, enter the Configured Name, and check Data Is Concentrated.
    4. Continue with steps "b" and "c" for additional device profiles.
  5. Run Power Operation and SCL exports. 

In CET850

Create the CID file for the G3200 gateway.

In Power Operation

  1. Open the I/O Device Manager.
  2. To the System Devices, add an IEC 61850 data concentrator for the G3200:
    1. Enter instance information screen, select the BRCBs that you need.
    2. Select the CID file you created in CET850.
    3. Complete the remaining steps in the I/O Device Manager. 
  3. Add a new device for each device under the G3200.
    1. From the Enter instance information screen, change the logical device as needed. Select the unit name of the G3200 device for the data concentrator.

For use with a single device

Although we recommend that you add individual G3200 devices as described in the section previous, you can also do it this way:

Before you begin, create the ICD files for the device type that will communicate via the G3200.

In the Profile Editor

  1. Import the ICD file.
  2. Create the device profile.
  3. Modify the profile as needed
  4. Create the project, but do not mark it as Data Concentrated Devices.

In CET850

Create the CID file for the G3200 gateway.

In Power Operation

  1. Open the I/O Device Manager.
  2. Add the device:
    1. From the Enter instance information screen, select the BRCBs that you need.
    2. Change the logical device as needed.
    3. Select the CID file you created in CET850.
    4. Complete the remaining steps in the I/O Device Manager.
