Compatibility of IEC 101 (interoperability)

Standard

This application-based standard specifies sets of parameters and alternatives from which subsets must be selected for creating a single telecontrol system. Some parameters, such as the number of COMMON ASDU ADDRESS octets, are mutually exclusive. This means that only one quantity of the specified parameters is allowed per system. Other parameters, such as the listed sets with different process information in control and monitor direction, allow you to specify the total size or subsets required for the given application. The parameters of the above standard are combined in this section in order to allow suitable selection for a special application. If a system is made up of multiple system components from different manufacturers, it is necessary for all partners to agree to the selected parameters.

The boxes for the selected parameters should be checked.

The complete specification of a system may also require individual selection of certain parameters for certain system components, e.g. individual selection of scaling factors for individually addressable readings.
