Associating device links

Device links are signals that permit IEDs to notify IHMIs whether or not they are connected. In Profile Studio, the Device links tab works with the Configuration pane Device links tab. The Configuration pane Device links tab displays a list of IEDs, which can be assigned to a node.

NOTE: This feature is only available for an EPAS system.

To associate IEDs with nodes

1. In the Navigation pane, select the electric node you would like to associate.
2. In the Configuration pane Device links tab, do one of the following:
• Select an IED and click the Auto Assign IEDs button to automatically assign it to all electric nodes of the project.
• Select an IED and click the button to assign.

  The assigned IED appears in the Device links tab.

To unassociate an IED

1. On the Device links tab, select the IED from the list.
2. Click the button.
