EC60870-5-101 Implementation Guide

Protocol Overview

The device implements IEC60870-5-101 protocol with the following key functions:

Reading States (Interrogation)
  • C_IC_NA_1 (100)
  • Reading all inputs and outputs states
    • Inputs: 1000-1007
    • Outputs: 2000-2003
Controlling Outputs
  • Function: C_SC_NA_1 (45)
  • Purpose: Setting individual output states
  • IOA range: 2000-2003
  • Values: ON (1) / OFF (0)

Command Structure

General Interrogation Command
Type ID: 100 (C_IC_NA_1)
Qualifier: 20
Cause of Transmission: 6 (Activation)
Common Address: 1
Single Command (Output Control)
Type ID: 45 (C_SC_NA_1)
Cause of Transmission: 6 (Activation)
Common Address: 1
IOA: 2000-2003
Value: 0/1

SCADA system configuration

IEC60870-5-101 Protocol Configuration
  • Common Address (ASDU): 1
  • Frame format: FT1.2
  • Link Layer Address: according to device configuration
I/O Points Configuration:

For inputs (8 channels):

  • Type: Single Point Information (M_SP_NA_1)
  • IOA addresses: 1000-1007
  • Direction: Monitoring (read)

For outputs (4 channels):

  • Type: Single Command (C_SC_NA_1)
  • IOA addresses: 2000-2003
  • Direction: Control (write)

Verification:

  • Check if input states are correctly read (IOA 1000-1007)
  • Confirm control operation for each output (IOA 2000-2003)
  • Verify device responds to General Interrogation
