5. WARNINGS REGARDING USE OF SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC PRODUCTS


Schneider Electric products are not designed with components and testing for a level of
reliability suitable for use in or in connection with surgical implants or as critical components
in any life support systems whose failure to perform can reasonably be expected to cause
significant injuries to a human.
In any application, including the above reliability of operation of the software products can be
impaired by adverse factors, including -but not limited- to fluctuations in electrical power
supply, computer hardware malfunctions, computer operating system, software fitness,
fitness of compilers and development software used to develop an application, installation
errors, software and hardware compatibility problems, malfunctions or failures of electronic
monitoring or control devices, transient failures of electronic systems (hardware and/or
software), unanticipated uses or misuses, or errors from the user or applications designer
(adverse factors such as these are collectively termed "System failures").
Any application where a system failure would create a risk of harm to property or persons
(including the risk of bodily injuries and death) should not be reliant solely upon one form of
electronic system due to the risk of system failure to avoid damage, injury or death, the user
or application designer must take reasonably steps to protect against system failure,
including -but not limited- to back-up or shut-down mechanisms, not because end-user
system is customised and differs from Schneider Electric testing platforms but also a user or
application designer may use Schneider Electric products in combination with other
products.
These actions cannot be evaluated or contemplated by Schneider Electric; Thus, the user or
application designer is ultimately responsible for verifying and validating the suitability of
Schneider Electric products whenever they are incorporated in a system or application, even
without limitation of the appropriate design, process and safety levels of such system or
application.

of PACiS System Configuration Editor software application dedicated to the PACiS system
and sub-systems.
SCE/EN FT/D10 Functional Description

Page 4/10 PACiS System Configuration Editor

2. PACiS SCE ARCHITECTURE


2.1 General Description
The System Configuration Editor (PACIS SCE) is the central tool in charge to manage the
PACiS system database for the PACiS equipment. The system configuration database
contains the configuration data for the PACiS system equipment:

• PACiS OI the Operator Interface

• PACiS SMT the System Management Tool that download Databases

• PACiS GTW the Tele control gateway

• MiCOM Computers C264 & C264P


The PACIS SCE allows some authorised personnel to interact with the PACiS system
configuration:

• modelling of coherent system configuration data: devices, electrical topologies,


graphical mimics, automations

• generation of configuration data-file for IEC61850 devices of the PACiS project


To generate any equipment database, the PACIS SCE manages:

• Inner data of the device itself (structure and parameters values)

• Exchange data of the device with other system devices

• Exchange data of the device with non-system devices


With the 3rd case, the PACIS SCE manages the communication with all non-PACiS devices
with typically IED or protection devices on Legacy BUS or system network. It is only by the
configuration of communication mapping that PACIS SCE can handle non-PACiS devices.
2.2 Functional Specification
PACiS System Configuration Editor is a tool that:

• helps in definition/edition of equipment data with specific editors (attribute, mimic,


ISaGRAF) or with queries on configuration

• generates equipment databases


The definition of data is done firstly by the definition by developer experts of templates or
models of data. These templates are then stored and delivered in PACIS SCE libraries. In a
second time, the models can be loaded and instanced as a clever kind of duplication to
create object data customised to the application case.
When all data of the concrete case are defined, the PACIS SCE generates a coherent set of
databases that can be loaded into each system device.
Functional Description SCE/EN FT/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 5/10

2.2.1 PACIS SCE Users


Control access of an operator is realised through a login and password capture.
Different levels of operators are distinguished depending on its role:

• Level 1 allows the modification of an existing configuration by adjustment of


parameters, settings or graphical representations. The users of level 1 can also add or
remove elements derived from the user template libraries. They can generate PACiS
application databags. Level 1 users are typically final users.

• Level 2 allows the modification of an existing configuration by adding or removing


elements derived from the user templates libraries. They can break the links between
the templates and the instantiated objects. Like level 1 users they can generate PACiS
application databags. Level 2 users are Integrators and VARs.

• Level 3 users have the capability to modify and create new templates derived from the
existing template libraries. They can generate PACiS application databags but also
template libraries. User of level 3 will be all T&D-EAI PACiS specialists.

• Level 4 users are PACiS SCE experts. They can modify and create the templates
directly from the structural database elements. Their PACIS SCE user level allows
also the management of all template databases and the administration of the
structural database. The level 4 users are the PACiS SCE administrators.
Such categories is only an outline of PACIS SCE users since several of its tools thanks to
specific editors, or report managers, can provided the records needed by other tasks:
commissioning cubicle, mapping extraction, etc.
2.2.2 PACIS SCE Template & Object
A database is basically a collection of persistent data. In the PACIS SCE framework, a
database is a collection of objects. Any object has its specific attributes, organised in
categories and subcategories. The objects are organised in the database by following pre-
defined association rules.
The structural database defines object types and association types. Association types
are hierarchical link types and relation link types between object types. Hierarchical links
are defined for father/child associations. Relation links are defined for other associations,
and may hold attributes. Cardinalities are defined for all associations.
A library database contains templates. A template is a collection of objects/associations
instantiated from the structural database or from others templates.
A configuration database contains objects/associations instantiated from types of the
structural database or from templates. It also contains its own templates, created specifically
for the configuration, or imported from a library database. A configuration database defines
all data needed by system devices to feel up customer application.
All the database elements support internationalisation (multiple languages).
SCE/EN FT/D10 Functional Description

Page 6/10 PACiS System Configuration Editor

2.2.3 Database creation process


To create the database downloaded to system devices, the common way is to:

• Import a template from an external library into current database (in its template area)

• Customise the template if needed in DB template area

• Instantiated the template from template to Object part of the database

• Feel up predefined attribute known as degree of freedom (for example the name)

• Generate devices databases


The link between template and instantiated object can be kept. Nevertheless this relation can
be broken for deep object modifications.
During all this creation process, the PACIS SCE does a check of data coherency with its
Data Model. The checks are made with templates and objects. The checks are made during
configuration edition and/or by a check action. They are done on:

• Attribute input

• Relation creation

• Generation

2.2.4 Version & release


Along time, system’s device features have evolution and their inner data base structure is
subject to modification. PACiS SCE need to feel the new requirement and has also
evolutions and corrections referenced by version.
A unique reference determines the coherent set of system equipment database and
soft/hard equipment that PACIS SCE can be used.
PACIS SCE can be compared two referenced versions of a configuration.

FIGURE 2: EXTERNAL INTERFACES

There is no software interfaces between PACiS SCE and other external tools or PACiS
devices.
External interfaces are implemented through files:

• XML files: the user can export / import objects to / from other database.

• SCL files: the user can export or import a whole configuration or only a subset. A
PACiS SCE exchange SCL format is defined for describing files which are:

− Exported from PACiS SCE to an external tool.

− Imported from an external tool to PACiS SCE.

• System databag: from a referenced version of a configuration, PACiS SCE generates


an application databag for each PACiS devices. The application databags are bagged
in a System databag. The system databag are used by PACiS CAT to download
application databag in each MiCOM C264. The system databag are used by PACiS
SMT to download application databag in each PACiS devices. This system databag
could be used by PACiS simulator tools.

• Reports: the user selects a whole configuration or only a subset and asks a report. A
predefined report pdf format is delivered with PACiS SCE.

LIMITATION: The PACiS SCE importing of graphical object whose level is lower or
equal to mimic is not supported.

1. SCOPE OF THE DOCUMENT


This document is a chapter PACiS System Configuration Editor (SCE) documentation
binder. It describes the installation of this engineering tool.
An outline helps to define the SCE context. PC requirement for a correct use is then
presented. The installation of SCE and its tools is then given with few necessary setting. The
end of document gives indication for handling install problem or uninstall product.
1.1 PACiS SCE OUTLINE
Schneider Electric’s years of experience in monitoring and control system has learnt that any
system part needs to be highly configurable to match a specific electric substation case, and
its evolution along years. This needed flexibility is not only into the change of parameters
value but also in the structure of data to manage along several devices.
As consequence, system devices use downloaded database compare to fixed devices that
use setting upon a rigid structure of data. The PACiS SCE equipment is the Editor of all data
and the generator creating the Databases for all PACiS equipment.
1.1.1 PACiS SCE Managed System Equipment
PACiS SCE is defined to handle all system structured data and to generate Databases
loaded on PACiS System main equipment:

⇒ PACiS OI the Operator Interface for local HMI

⇒ PACiS SMT the System Management Tool that download Databases

⇒ PACiS ES the Equipment Simulator

⇒ PACiS GTW the separate Tele control Interface to SCADA

⇒ MiCOM C264 & C264PComputers


The tool is designed to be used for several system equipment working together with their
exchange communication data, only one of them. For example it is able to generate
database of one MiCOM C264 used in stand alone.
1.1.2 Version & release
Along time, system’s devices features have evolution and their inner data base structure is
subject to modification. PACiS SCE need to feel the new requirement and has also
evolutions and corrections referenced by version. The software version is seen all along
installation and is expressed for example by:
4.52.3
st
4: the 1 number is the PACiS system version with fixed features set and Data model
version
52: the 2nd number is an iteration number for the given version (that includes minor evolution)
3: the ending number is optional release on generators.

menu” on item uninstall.
Installation SCE/EN IN/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 25/30

5. PACiS SCE DATA BASE UPGRADE


In Product life, new version of PACiS SCE may be delivered, with new features, and
corrections. Delivery form or release note should be read carefully because it explains
optional upgrade procedures.
A new PACiS SCE version is installed as explain before. Difference is that during installation,
the software is copied under a new directory with the new PACiS SCE version.
A Database upgrade between two consecutive versions of PACiS SCE is most of the time
made only by starting new PACiS SCE version, and loading the old database. A message
upgrade is displayed. If user saves, the saved database is upgraded to the new PACiS SCE
version.
Between major evolution of the PACiS SCE (first version number is incremented) the
structural database could change. In this case, a special note is added into release note. The
upgrade of the database is then made in 2 main steps.
1. Export DB from old PACiS SCE version

⇒ Launch old PACiS SCE version

⇒ Open the DB to upgrade

⇒ Menu File/ Prepare Upgrade & Save (save DB with additional data)

⇒ Close this PACiS SCE version


2. Import DB into new PACiS SCE version

⇒ Launch new PACiS SCE version

⇒ Open the DB

⇒ Save DB changing its name and directory


A good practice is to store DB from a special PACiS SCE version, in a separate directory
that include PACiS SCE DB version and to name DB with PACiS SCE version included.
Anyway other chapters explain automatic controls made on DB.

This document is a chapter of PACiS System Configuration Editor PACiS SCE
documentation. It describes the Settings -or on-line- parameters, which can be modified in
runtime PACiS SCE or during the installation time.
SCE/EN ST/D10 Settings

Page 4/8 PACiS System Configuration Editor

2. PACiS SCE SETTING


For a better efficiency of the installation part, optimal settings need to be done on:

• PACiS SCE configuration file lax

• PACiS SCE run-time setting


2.1 Setting PC memory
To optimize management of PC RAM, it is necessary to adjust Java heap size.
During installation, Java heap max size is automatically set with 2/3 of ram size, max
1.3 GB.
After installation, Java heap max size could be updated manually: modify the parameter
lax.nl.java.option.java.heap.size.max (bytes) in file sce.lax. This parameter
must not exceed 1.3 GB. File sce.lax is in the installation directory.
After ram size updating (add or remove ram), run script UpdateLaxFile.vbs in install
directory: this script updates Java heap min size with 32 MB and max size with 2/3 of new
ram size, max 1.3 GB..
NOTE: Some PC BIOS does not allow to assign more than 1,25 GB to a
single application. Check with your PC technical document before
setting the PC memory in the sce.lax.
2.2 PACiS SCE Online Path Setting
After its installation, PACiS SCE needs its external tools paths. This is done with PACiS
SCE, on line.
Start it via “Start Menu” application launcher:
Programs/PACiS/Configuration Editor x.y/SC
Into PACiS SCE window select in menu bar the “Tools/Options…” item.
Settings SCE/EN ST/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 5/8

FIGURE 1 - PACiS SCE SETTING AFTER INSTALL


A window “Setting Manager” opens with all PACiS SCE settings.
The optionally installed tool paths have to be entered. Their values must be updating
according to their installation folders. It is especially the case for:

• ISaGRAF Workbench path setting: the installation folder of ISaGRAF tool.

• Acrobat Reader Application path: the binary file path of Acrobat Reader.
SCE/EN ST/D10 Settings

Page 6/8 PACiS System Configuration Editor

The other settings do not depend of other tools or others installations:

• General part settings: the properties of PACiS SCE (read only).

• Status bar part settings: the displaying options of status bar.

• Graphic part settings: the graphical editors (mimic editor, bay mimic editor,…) options.

• Access part settings: default working paths.

• Miscellaneous part setting: device generation options or general edition options.

FIGURE 2 - PACiS SCE SETTING MANAGER


Path name can be entered directly, or selection of associate button starts an explorer to
choose directory.
Settings SCE/EN ST/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 7/8

2.3 PACiS SCE settings import


A settings set can be imported from a previous version of PAciS SCE. This operation avoids
modifying default settings after each PACiS SCE installation.
This feature is available through the Import button of PACiS SCE Setting Manager dialog
box.
The folllowing Select dialog box is then displayed. A settings file of a previous PACiS SCE
version must be chosen.

2. CHECKS
This section presents the list and the corresponding explanation of the error/warning
messages you can get into the checks tab of the log window.
Theses errors or warning are raised during the complete consistency check of the current
configuration. The check function is available via menu item file/check (shortcut F6).
Checks are performed according to the following steps:

− General checks

− System checks

− Electrical checks

− Graphical checks

− Datapoints checks
Spare objects are not processed.
Objects in Temporary area are not processed.
Referenced document is SCE Check Specification-DSL2-Issue B1.
2.1 Check user interface
The system displays check traces in the following table of the Traces panel ("Checks" tab):

CHECK RESULT TABLE


Table rows:

− Each row corresponds to one check operation whose result is an error or a warning or
information.
Table columns:

− First column:
The user can check On/Off this column to remember which error/warning he tried to
correct.

− Level:
Icon of error, warning or info.

− Code:
Identifier of the error, warning or info message. Each code and its level are defined
below.

− Type:
Identifier of the check operation.
Example: "CircuitBreaker" is a check consisting in verifying the configuration of a
Circuit breaker (missing datapoints, … ).
Maintenance SCE/EN MF/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 5/112

− Reference:
For each check operation, an Object implicated in the check operation, is considered
as the main Object. The column displays the external Id of this Object. If the user
activates the "Reach" action on the row, this Object is retrieved in the SCE browsers
and selected.

− Message:
It displays a message explaining the error/warning/info for the check operation.
The panel of the Table contains also the following buttons:

− Errors filter toggle button:


If the button is selected, the Error traces are not displayed (they are filtered). Else they
are.

− Warnings filter toggle button:


If the button is selected, the Warning traces are not displayed (they are filtered). Else
they are.

− Info filter toggle button:


If the button is selected, the Info traces are not displayed (they are filtered). Else they
are.

− Checked traces filter toggle button:

2.3 General checks


2.3.1 Internal error
In case of an exceptional error, internal to the check process, the stack trace is displayed
with the following message:

00001 / CheckAbort / Check internal error


2.3.2 Objects in Temporary area
The temporary area must not contain any object which is not spare.

01002 / TemporaryObjects / There are objects in temporary area


2.3.3 Capacity limits
The two following lists are taken from the document PS01.

(2) The Structural Database locks the count of Transformers per Bay-Transformer to 1.
So the maximum count of Transformers follows the count of Bay-Transformers.
Maintenance SCE/EN MF/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 7/112

Additional checks:
The check of the count of Symbols per "Comp. workspace" and per "Bay mimic" is described
in section 2.6.4.1Symbols.

02003 / CapacityLimits / The count of … components is not valid (count, maximum)


Examples:
02003 / CapacityLimits / The count of OI server components is not valid (count, maximum)->
[3, 1]
2.3.4 Variant attributes value
NOTE: These checks are not processed for backup devices.
An attribute value can be dependent of another attribute value.
In the following example, the "C26x SCADA Prot." has 2 attributes: "protocol" and "address
structure".
The set of possible values for "address structure" depends on the selected value for
"protocol".

C264
C26x SCADA Prot (A) protocol
- T101
depends of - DNP3
- T104
(A) address structure
- Address on 8 bits (1 byte)
- Address on 16 bits (2 bytes)
- Address on 8 bits.8 bits
- Address on 8 bits.16 bits
- Address on 16 bits.8 bits
- Address on 8 bits.8 bits.8 bits
- Address on 24 bits (3 bytes)
S0220ENa

At the User Interface, the modification of the "protocol" value may lead to an incompatible
"address structure" value.

06101 / AttributeValue / The attribute value is not valid


Example:
06101 / AttributeValue / The attribute value is not valid-> [Scs | Ethernet network | C264 |
C26X SCADA prot | address structure]
2.3.5 Relations
NOTE: These checks are not processed for backup devices.
The check of a relation depends on its definition in the Structural Database.

• A "Mandatory" flag is set to NO on a relation for which the link can be omitted.

Object
(R)
Relation link No link
Mandatory = NO OR
Spare link
S0221ENa

If the relation is not linked, then the following message is displayed:

03008 / RelationLinkNull / The optional relation has no link


Examples:
03008 / RelationLinkNull / The optional relation has no link-> [Site | Substation | Voltage level
| Feeder | has for lock right: <null>]
SCE/EN MF/D10 Maintenance

Page 8/112 PACiS System Configuration Editor

If the relation is linked to a spare object, then the following message is displayed:

04010 / RelationLinkSpare / The optional relation has a spare link


Examples:
04010 / RelationLinkSpare / The optional relation have a spare link-> [Site | Substation |
Substation DPC | has for AutoManu dependency: Substation DPS]
Some optional relations may have a specific rule which doesn’t produce a warning if not
filled. These rules are listed below:

− C26x SCADA protocols have the relation with a “main comm. port” which hasn’t to be
filled in case of T104 protocol,

− GHU200 Boards have a relation with a workspace which hasn’t to be filled when HMI
type is Simple.
A "Mandatory" flag is set to YES on a relation for which the link is mandatory.

Object (R)
Relation link No link
Mandatory = YES Or
Spare link
S0222ENa

If the relation is not linked, then the following message is displayed:

03007 / RelationLinkNull / The mandatory relation has no link


This check is not treated if the relation is:

− a UCA2 addressing relation

− a “UserFunction_RunsOn_PLC” of an Interlock FBD that belongs to a bay managed


by an IED 61850 no PACiS
Examples:
03007 / RelationLinkNull / The mandatory relation has no link-> [Site | has for Bypass right:
<null>]
If the relation is linked to a spare object, then the following message is displayed:

04009 / RelationLinkSpare / The mandatory relation has a spare link


Examples:
04009 / RelationLinkSpare / The mandatory relation have a spare link-> [Site | Substation |
Substation DPC | has for profile: DPC profile]

− If a filter is defined for a relation, the link must be compatible with the filter definition.

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 9/112

2.3.6 Templates
The goal of these checks is to warn user about template coherency. For templates, check if
all components are present in all instances or clones.
This check indicates the template and instance concerned, and the component which are
missing. If the component is a template clone, indicate only the main template.
The way to correct this error is to delete the missing component in the template and to
recreate it.

68213 / Templates / One instance of the template is not coherent with the template
definition (Template, Instance, missing component)
Example:
68213 / Templates / One instance of the template is not coherent with the template definition
(Template, Instance, missing component) -> [Site-Feeder-Feeder1 | Feeder1, Site |
Substation | Voltage level | Feeder 1, Circuit breaker]

68215 / Templates / One instance of the template is not coherent with the template
definition, a root component is missing (Template, Instance, missing component)
A template can only use 1 sub-level of template, i.e. a maximum level of inner template is 2.

68254 / Templates /Number of inner templates reached (number, maximum)


2.4 System checks
2.4.1 TCP/IP definition on Ethernet Network

Each device connected to an Ethernet Network has 2 attributes "TCP/IP address" and
"network name".

⇒ The "TCP/IP address" value of a device, must be unique among all the devices per
Ethernet Network.

⇒ The "network name" value of a device, must be unique among all the devices per
Ethernet Network.

⇒ The network name (alias TCP/IP) must not be reserved by operating system.
Exception:
The unicity is not required between an OI server and an OI client embedded in the same
physical device. Therefore, if an "OI client" is linked to an "OI server" through the relation
"has for HMI server", then it's not checked.

07012 / TCPIPattribute / The attribute value is not unique


Examples:
07012 / TCPIPattribute / The attribute value is not unique-> [TCP/IP address,
255.255.255.255]
07012 / TCPIPattribute / The attribute value is not unique-> [network name, NW_NAME]

07164 / TCPIPattribute / The network name is reserved by operating system


SCE/EN MF/D10 Maintenance

Page 10/112 PACiS System Configuration Editor

2.4.2 SNTP servers


On SCS object, it is possible to configure the TCP/IP addressing for SNTP server (primary
and auxiliary addresses).
This addresses may reference an existing device in database or a devices outside the
PACiS system.
Some rules must be followed for these addresses.
If one of both IP addresses is configured and represent a PACiS device, this device must be
a computer.

07249 / TCPIPattribute / The PACiS SNTP server must be a computer (IP address,
device)
If auxiliary IP address is configured primary address must be configured too.

07250 / TCPIPattribute / The primary SNTP address must be configured if auxiliary is


configured
Primary and auxiliary addresses must be different when configured.

07251 / TCPIPattribute / The two SNTP addresses must be different (IP address)
If the SNTP server (main or auxiliary) is a computer, the datapoint “External clock status” is
mandatory for it:

07292 / TCPIPattribute / The datapoint “External clock status” is required on the


computer running a SNTP server service

An address identification is the value of the attribute "object address" of a "Gtw xxx addr.",
plus the value of the attribute "SOE file address" defined on the protocol.
In a SCADA Mapping, the address identification of each "Gtw xxx addr." must be unique.
Particular case of a "Gtw DPS addr." in DNP3 protocol of MiCOMC264:
Two addresses are used. Their values are given by:

− the attribute "object address" value

− the attribute "object address" value + 1 (reserved address).


Particular case of "Gtw DPS addr." in MODBUS protocol of MiCOM C264:
If ‘Double address usage’ value is ‘Yes’
Two addresses are used :

− open state address

− closed state address


This couple of address must be unique in SCADA mapping

19038 / xxxAddressOnSCADANetwork / The address of the 'Gtw xxx address' is not


unique in the Mapping
If ‘Double address usage’ value is ‘Yes’ attribute ‘open state address’ and ‘closed state
address’ must be different on each ‘Gtw DPS addr’

19247 / xxxAddressOnSCADANetwork / Attribute 'open state address' and 'Closed state


address' must be different for double addressing configuration
For CDCII SCADA addresses, the address structure depends on datapoint kind:

− for SPS and DPS in static mode: CHN.SQN.OFF (concatenation of 3 attributes)

− for SPS and DPS in event mode: CHN.PPU.EVT (concatenation of 3 attributes)

− for MV and counter: CHN.SQN (concatenation of 2 attributes)

− for SPC, DPC and SetPoint: CHN.SQN (concatenation of 2 attributes)

− 19038 / xxxAddressOnSCADANetwork / The address of the 'Gtw xxx address' is


not unique in the Mapping
Maintenance SCE/EN MF/D10

PACiS System Configuration Editor Page 37/112

Examples:
19038 / xxxAddressOnSCADANetwork / The address of the 'Gtw xxx address' is not unique
in the Mapping-> [object address, 255]
19038 / xxxAddressOnSCADANetwork / The address of the 'Gtw xxx address' is not unique
in the Mapping-> [SOE file address, 255]
Particular cases of T101, T104 and DNP3 protocols (for MiCOM C264 and Gateways):

− The unicity constraint is applicable only for addresses of the same type.
Addresses of different types can have identical addresses and therefore this does
not lead to an error but to a warning.

− Address for Disturbance uploading and Buffer Overflow (only for T101 and T104)
to SCADA are also taken into account in the unicity check.

− The type for T101 and T104 is same as defined in SCE (SPS, DPS, SPC…) and
for DNP3, is grouping simple and double (TS, TC, TM, Counter and SetPoint)

19038 / xxxAddressOnSCADANetwork / The address of the 'Gtw xxx address' is not


unique in the Mapping
For SCADA addresses of MPS POC or PSE, the address must be bitstring.

18169 / LegacyIED / The SCADA address format for PSE/POC must be bitstring
For CDCII SCADA addressing, SQN value attribute must respect following constraints:

− for SPS and DPS: 0<= SQN <=63

− for MV: 130<= SQN <=255

− for Counter: 64<= SQN <=95

− for SPC and DPC: 0<= SQN <=63

− for SetPoint: 0<= SQN <=15

The "Bitmap" linked to a "LHMI xPS MultiSt" MultiState must be defined as follows:

− its "type" attribute must be set to "5-uple" value

− its three first file names { "file name by default", "file name for 'open' state", "file
name for 'closed' state" } are mandatory and each one must be unique.
Furthermore, if the MultiState is linked to a SPS or DPS Datapoint of a module containing a
"Withdrawn" SPS Datapoint, through the "is managed by" relation, then the following
constraints are added to the "Bitmap" definition:

− its two file names { "file name for 'withdrawn open' state", "file name for 'withdrawn

2.7.3 Client / Server definition
For a Datapoint, the Server and Clients identification is based on general rules (see § 2.7.3.1
General definitions ) which can be overwritten by specific rules depending of the Datapoint
type (see § 2.7.3.2 Detailed definitions).
These definitions are based on the SCE Data Design.
2.7.3.1 General definitions
For a Datapoint, 1, and only 1, Server device must be defined.

21040 / DatapointServer / The server is not unique (server, relation)

Special case:

For a Datapoint having no Server explicitly defined, then:

− if the Datapoint is located under a Bay, the device managing the Bay is
automatically considered as the Server ("is managed by" relation link).

− if the Datapoint is located above a Bay, the device managing the associated
voltage level, substation or site (via has for default server relation set at the
corresponding level) is automatically considered as the Server except if it has an
IEC address on a specific server.
A device is Client of a Datapoint, if, and only if, it's not Server of this Datapoint.

A Datapoint and its feedback Datapoint must comply with the following rules:

− both must have the same Server device

− if one of them is a "Wired" Datapoint, the other one must be "Wired" too.
Maintenance SCE/EN MF/D10

− if one of them is a "System" Datapoint, the other one must be "System" too.

− if one of them is linked to an "IEC gen IED" through the relation "has for IEC
address", this relation must also be defined for the other one.
This rule does not concern the CB Computed Pos datapoint when it is feedback of a wired
SPC/DPC control of a breaker.
NOTE: Here, the term "Wired" means that the datapoint is linked to a digital or
analogue channel of a computer, or linked to an IED address, else it's
"System".

A checking error code is an error or a warning message displayed in a dedicated table,
after a consistency database check. The checking error codes are completely defined in the
SCE/EN MF chapter: error code description and checked consistency rule definition.
Error while an import action: This error could occur during the import of .xml files. The
import errors are completely defined in chapter Human Machine Interface (SCE/EN HI,
tools/import section). Workaround: check the validity of the imported file with a xml editor like
xml spy.
Memory fault: during operation that needs lot of memory, a Java software error/exception
[memory fault] could occur. Workaround: Adjust the Java heap size with your ram size.
Follow instructions described in chapter installation (SCE/EN IN).
Other exception: apply a bug report procedure.
