    Overview and solutions

    Introduction

    PrefaceThe Frost & Sullivan Technology Leadership Award 2006 was presented to Siemens for pioneering in the development of an innovative technology, the IEC 61850.

    With Siemens energy automation solutions, every user is on the safe side: the combination of long-term experience and the newest innovation supplies safety for many years to come. Our solutions are not only compatible with older devices, they are also very innovative.

    Overview and solutionsDuring the last years, the influences on the business of the power supply companies have changed a lot. The approach to power grid operation has changed from a static, quasi-sta-ble interpretation to a dynamic operational management of the electric power grid. Enhanced requirements regarding the economy of lifetime for all assets in the grid are gaining importance. As a result, the significance of automation sys-tems has increased a lot, and the requirements for control, protection and remote control have undergone severe changes of paradigm: Flexible and tailor-made solutions for manifold

    applications Secure and reliable operation management Cost-effective investment and economic operation Efficient project management Long-term concepts, future-proof and open for new

    requirements

    Siemens energy automation solutions offer an answer to all current issues of todays utilities. Based on a versatile product portfolio and many years of experience, Siemens plans and delivers solutions for all voltage levels and all kinds of sub-stations (figure 1/1).

    Siemens energy automation solutions are available both for refurbishment and new turnkey substations, and can be used in classic centralized or distributed concepts. All automation functions can be performed where they are needed.

    Flexible and tailor-made solutions for manifold applicationsSiemens energy automation solutions offer a variety of stan-dardized default configurations and functions for many typi-cal tasks. Whereas these defaults facilitate the use of the flexible products, they are open for more sophisticated and tailor-made applications. Acquisition of all kinds of data, cal-culation and automation functions, as well as versatile com-munication can be combined in a very flexible way to form specific solutions, and fit into the existing system environ -ment.

    The classical interface to the primary equipment is central-ized with many parallel cables sorted by a marshalling rack. In such an environment, central protection panels and cen-tralized RTUs are standard. Data interfaces can make use of high-density I/O elements in the rack, or of intelligent termi-nal modules, which are even available with DC 220 V for digi-tal inputs and direct CT/VT interfaces.

    Even in such configurations, the user can benefit from full automation and communication capabilities. This means that classical RTU solutions, interfaces to other IEDs are included, and HMIs for station operation and supervision can be added as an option. Also, the protection relays are connected to the RTU, so that data from the relays are available both at the station operation terminal and in the control centers.

    All members of the SICAM family family can be equipped with different combinations of communication, both serial and Ethernet (TCP/IP). Different protocols are available, mainly IEC standards, e.g. IEC 60870-5-101/103/104 IEC 61850, IEC 62056-21, but also a lot of other well-known protocols from different vendors.

    Overview and solutions

    Introduction

    Figure 1/2 shows an example of refurbishment and central-ized data acquisition in an MV substation. The interface to the primary equipment is connected via a marshalling rack, but can use any peripheral voltage (DC 24-220 V). The elec-tronic terminal blocks are designed to substitute conven-tional terminal blocks, thereby realizing a very economic design. Existing protection relays can be connected either by IEC 60870-5-103 or by the more enhanced IEC 61850.

    In new substations, the amount of cabling can be reduced by decentralizing the automation system. Both protection relays and bay controllers are situated as near as possible to the pri-mary switchgear. Typically, they are located in relay houses (EHV) or in control cabinets directly beneath HV GIS feeders. The rugged design with maximum EMC provides high secu-rity and availability.

    At the sation control we distinguish between SICAM PAS and SICAM RTUs. SICAM PAS: software-oriented product based on standard

    industrial hardware SICAM RTUs: modular hardware-oriented design which

    bridges the gap between remote terminal units (RTUs) and substation automation (SA) (figure 1/3).

    Introduction

    The flexible Siemens solutions are available for every kind of substation: For different voltage levels, from ring main unit to

    transmission substation For new substations or refurbishment For gas-insulated or air-insulated switchgear For indoor or outdoor design For manned or unmanned substations

    Communication is the backbone of every automation system. Therefore, Siemens solutions are designed to collect the data from the high-voltage equipment and present them to the dif-ferent users: the right information for the right users at the right place and time with the required quality and security.

    Here are some default examples for typical configurations. They are like elements which can be combined according to the respective requirements. The products, which are the bricks of the configurations, are an integral part of the har-monized system behavior, and support according to the prin-ciple of single-point data input. This means that multiple data input is avoided. Even if different engineering tools are necessary for certain configurations, these tools exchange their data for more efficient engineering.

    Example of a small medium-voltage substation: Typically,it consists of 4 to 16 MV feeders and is unmanned. In most cases, combined bay control and protection devices are located directly in the low-voltage compartments of the switchgear panels.

    A station operation terminal is usually not required, because such substations are normally remote-controlled. In case of local service/maintenance, they are easy to control at the front side of the switchgear panels (figure 1/4).

    Example of a distribution substation in industry supply: In principle, they are similar to the configuration above, but they are often connected to a control center via local area network (LAN). A distinctive feature is the interface to low-voltage distribution boards and sometimes even to the indus-trial automation system for data exchange. Here, the compat-ibility with SIMATIC products simplifies system integration (figure 1/5).

    Examples

    Introduction

    A subtransmission substation requires even more complexity: 2 or 3 voltage levels have to be equipped; a station operation terminal is usually required; more communication interfaces to external locations, separated control and protection devices on HV level, powerful LAN based on IEC 61850, and remote maintenance access are typical features of such applications (figure 1/6).

    In transmission substations, typically two to four voltage lev-els are to be automated. According to the high importance of such substations, availability is of the highest priority. There-fore, redundancy at substation level is generally required, both for station control units and station operation. Multiple operator stations are often required, multiple communica-tion links to different control centers or neighboring substa-tions are standard.

    Although most standard applications are IEC protocols, spe-cific protocols also have to be offered for interfacing existing third-party devices. Complex automation functions support the operation and maintenance of such substations, such as voltage regulation by controlling on-load tap changers, syn-chrocheck, automatic command sequences etc. (figure 1/7).

    The devices are as flexible as the configurations: Bay control-lers, protection relays, station control units, station operation units and RTUs can be configured from small to very large. The well-known products of the SICAM and SIPROTEC series are a well-proven base for the Siemens solutions.

    Secure and reliable operation

    Introduction

    Secure and reliable operationSiemens solutions provide human machine interfaces (HMIs) for every control level and support the operators with reli-able information and secure, easy-to-use control features. At feeder level: Conventional panels with pushbuttons and instruments

    for refurbishment Electronic front panels combined with bay control units

    (default) Access points for remote terminals connected to the station

    operation units Portable touch panels with wireless access in defined areas

    At substation level: Single or redundant HMIs Distributed server/client architectures with multiple

    and/or remote terminals Interface to office automation

    All images and pictures of the HMIs are designed according to ergonomic requirements, so as to give the operators clear information that is easy to use. Control commands are only accepted if access rights are met, the local/remote switches are in the right position and the multi-step command sequence is actively handled. Care is taken that only com-mands which are intended and explicitly given are processed and sent to the switchgear.

    Automation functions support operation: Interlocking Feeder or remote blocking (option) Command sequences (option) Automatic recloser (option) Automatic switchover (option) etc.

    All images and pictures of the HMIs are organized hierarchi-cally and, for easy access, they guide the user to the required information and to fast alarm recognition. In addition, alarm and event logs, measurement curves, fault records, archives and flexible reports support the analysis of any situation in the power grid (figure 1/8). For security reasons, only spe-cially authorized personnel is granted access to operation and engineering tools. Flexible access rights are defined for operators, design engineers and service personnel, and dif-ferentiate between engineering access and operation rights.

    Security of data transmission is catered for by secure proto-cols and secure network design. Especially, easy remote access to substations creates the need for such complex measures. The experienced Siemens engineers provide all the necessary knowledge for network security concepts.

    Long-term stability and trendsetting features for new requirements

    Introduction

    Figure 1/10 Migration from LSA to PAS

    Long-term stability and trendsetting features for new requirementsWith Siemens energy automation systems, every user bene-fits from more than 70 years of experience in remote control and substation automation. The energy automation systems are designed for a long lifetime. Innovation is based on exist-ing products, and compatibility of different product genera-tions is part of the Siemens development philosophy.

    The extensive use of available IEC standards strongly sup-ports long-term stability and expandability. Examples are communication protocols like IEC 61850 in the substation, IEC 61970 for control centers, and IEC 60870-5 for remote communication. They form the strong backbone for the seamless solutions in energy automation. Additionally, the

    systems are tested in rugged environmental conditions and certified according to applicable IEC standards. Investments in our solutions are secured by the evergreen concept, which defines migration methods when a new generation of products is introduced to the markets, e.g. the migration solution for SICAM LSA 678 from the early 90s: By substitut-ing the station control device with todays SICAM PAS, it is possible to retain the installed feeder devices and import the existing database with the settings into the new tool SICAM PAS UI. This method reduces the refurbishment work significantly and adds new features to the system: In the next years, the substation can be expanded with new feeder devices through the use of IEC 61850, even though some parts of the system might already be older than 15 years (figure 1/10).

    System overview

    Figure 2.1/1 Typical SICAM PAS configuration; IEDs are connected to the Station Unit with IEC 61850 and various other protocols

    For some years now, power generation and distribution have been undergoing major changes. The innovation cycles (where operating equipment and communication media are concerned) are getting ever shorter, and the market is becoming increasingly deregulated. The systems used to monitor power supply equipment and processes must take account of these changes. When new products are used,user friendliness, easy engineering, manifold interfacing to various communication media and extensibility are impor-tant features.

    SICAM PAS (Power Automation System) meets all the demands placed on a distributed substation control system both now and in the future. Amongst many other standard-ized communication protocols, SICAM PAS particularly sup-ports the IEC 61850 standard for communication between substations and IEDs. SICAM PAS is an open system and in addition to standardized data transfer processes it features user interfaces for the integration of system-specific tasks and offers multiple automation options.

    SICAM PAS can thus be easily included in existing systems and used for system integration, too. With modern diagnos-tics, it optimally supports commissioning and maintenance. SICAM PAS is clearly structured and reliable, thanks to its open, fully documented and tested system.

    System overview, application and functionality ofSICAM PAS SICAM PAS is an energy automation solution; its system

    architecture makes it scalable. SICAM PAS is suitable for operating a substation not only

    from one single station level computer, but also in combi-nation with further SICAM PAS or other station control units. Communication in this network is based on a power-ful Ethernet LAN.

    With its features and its modular expandability, SICAM PAS covers a broad range of applications and supports distri-buted system configurations. A distributed SICAM PASsystem operates simultaneously on several computers.

    SICAM PAS can use existing hardware components and communication standards as well as their connections.

    SICAM PAS controls and registers the process data for all devices of a substation, within the scope of the data trans-fer protocols supported.

    SICAM PAS is a communication gateway. This is why only one single data connection to a higher-level system control center is required.

    SICAM PAS enables integration of a fully graphical process visualization system directly in the substation.

    SICAM PAS simplifies installation and parameterization of new devices, thanks to its intuitive user interface.

    SICAM PAS is notable for its online parameter setting fea-tures, particularly when the system has to be expanded.There are no generation times; loading into a target system is not required at all or only required if configuration is per-formed on a separate engineering PC.

    SICAM PAS features integrated testing and diagnostic functions.

    Its user friendliness, its operator control logic, its orienta-tion to the Windows world and its open structure ideally suit users requirements.

    SICAM PAS is developed in accordance with selected secu-rity standards and meets modern demands placed on safe communication.

    System architectureSICAM PAS works on industrial-standard hardware with the Microsoft Windows operating systems. The advantages of this platform are low hardware and software costs, ease of operation, scalability, flexibility and constantly available sup-port. With the powerful real-time data distribution system, applications can be allocated among several computers, thus boosting performance, connectivity and availability.

    A database system stores and organizes the data basis (e.g. configuration data, administrative status data etc.). The device master function for communication with intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) supports a large number of well-established protocols. The SICAM PAS data normalization function allows conversions such as measured-value filter-ing, threshold value calculation and linear characteristics.

    SICAM SCC is used for process visualization. Specifically designed for energy applications, it assists the operating per-sonnel in optimizing the operations management. It provides a quick introduction to the subject matter and a clearly arranged display of the systems operating states. SICAM SCC is based on SIMATIC WinCC, one of the leading process visu-alization processes that is used in industrial automation worldwide.

    To facilitate incident analysis, the fault recordings from protection relays are retrieved and archived automatically during operation. This is particularly supported for the stan-dard protocols IEC 61850 and IEC 60870-5-103, but also for PROFIBUS FMS (SIPROTEC 4) and SINAUT LSAS ILSA. Further-more, SIPROTEC fault recorders can also be connected to the system, and their detailed fault recordings can be retrieved and archived as well. To manage the fault recording archive, the program SICAM PQ Analyzer with its program part Inci-dent Explorer is used. Fault recordings are visualized and evaluated with the program Comtrade View as standard. Alternatively, SIGRA 4 with its additional functions can also be used.

    Communication

    CommunicationDevice interfaces and communication protocolsIn a substation configured and operated with SICAM PAS, various types of protection relays, IEDs, bay control units, measured-value recorders and telecontrol units from a wide range of manufacturers can be used. SICAM PAS offers a large number of commercially available communication pro-tocols for recording data from various devices and through differing communication channels. Subsequent expansion is easy. Available protocols:

    These communication protocols and device drivers can be obtained as optional additions to the standard scope of SICAM PAS.

    IEC 61850 (Client)IEC 61850 is the communication standard for intercon-necting the devices at the feeder and station control lev-els on the basis of Ethernet. IEC 61850 supports the direct exchange of data between IEDs, thus enabling switching interlocks across feeders independently of the station control unit, for example.

    IEC 60870-5-103 (Master)Protection relays, IEDs, bay control units, measured-value recorders and transformer controllers from many manufacturers support the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol and can therefore be connected directly to SICAM PAS.

    IEC 60870-5-101 (Master)The IEC 60870-5-101 protocol is generally used to con-nect telecontrol units. The balanced and unbalanced traffic modes are supported.

    IEC 60870-5-104 (Master)Furthermore, connection of substations is also sup-ported by the TCP/IP-based IEC 60870-5-104 protocol.

    Automatic dialing is also supported for the connection of substations with this protocol. SICAM PAS can establish the dial-up connection to the substation either cyclically or as required (e.g. for command output). By contrast, the sub-station can also establish a connection cyclically or in event-triggered mode.

    IEC 60870-5-104 (Master)Furthermore, connection of substations is also sup-ported by the TCP/IP-based IEC 60870-5-104 protocol.

    DNP 3.0 (Master) Level 3Apart from the IEC protocols -101 and -104, DNP 3.0 is another standardized telecontrol protocol used by many IEDs and RTUs and applied worldwide. The units can be connected both serially and with TCP/IP (DNPi). TCP/IP-based communication can operate with an asymmetrical encryption procedure, thus meeting security requirements.

    PROFIBUS DP (Master)PROFIBUS DP is a highly powerful field bus protocol. For example, it is used for industrial automation and for automating the supply of electricity and gas. PROFIBUS DP serves to interface multifunctional measur-ing instruments such as SICAM (I, V, P, Q, cos ) or,for example, to connect ET200 components for gather-ing messages and for simple commands. Messages, for example, can be derived from the signaling contacts of fuse switch disconnectors.

    Modbus (Master)Besides PROFIBUS DP, the Modbus protocol is also well known in industrial applications. SICAM PAS allows con-nection of IEDs and RTUs with this protocol, both via serial and TCP/IP-based connections.

    PROFIBUS FMS (SIPROTEC 4)Most SIPROTEC 4 bay controllers and protection units can be connected to the SICAM PAS station unit via PROFIBUS FMS.

    SINAUT LSA ILSA (Master)Communication via the SINAUT LSA ILSA protocol is a special advantage of SICAM PAS. Existing LSA central units can be replaced without changing the configura-tion on bay level.

    Communication

    System control center connections, distributed processconnection and process visualization SICAM PAS operates on the basis of Microsoft Windows

    operating systems. This means that the extensive support which Windows offers for modern communication proto-cols is also available with SICAM PAS.

    SICAM PAS was conceived for easy and fast integration of conventional protocols. Please contact Siemens in case of questions about integration of user-specific protocols.

    For the purpose of linking up to higher-level system control centers, the standardized telecontrol protocols IEC 60870-5-101, IEC 60870-5-104 and DNP 3.0 (Level 3) serially and over IP (DNPi), as well as Modbus (serially and over IP), TG 8979 (serially) and CDT (serially) are supported. Security and safe communication are gaining more and more importance. Asymmetric encryption enables tap-proof communication connection to higher-level control centers with IEC 60870-5-104 and DNP 3.0 via TCP/IP. For DNP 3.0, authentication can be used as an additional security mechanism.

    Distributed process connection in the substation is possible thanks to the SICAM PAS Device Interface Processor (DIP).

    SICAM PAS can also be set up on computers networked with TCP/IP. Here, one computer performs the task of the so-called full server. Up to six other computers can be used as DIPs. With this architecture, the system can be adapted to the topological situation and its performance can also be boosted.

    SICAM PAS allows use of the SICAM SCC process visualiza-tion system for central process control and monitoring. For industrial applications, it is easy to configure an interface to process visualization systems via OPC (object linking and embedding for process control).

    SICAM PAS can be configured as an OPC server or as an OPC client. The SICAM PAS process variables available with the OPC server can be read and written with OPC clients working either on the same device or on one net-worked by TCP/IP. This mechanism enables, for example, communication with another process visualization system. The OPC server is included in the basic system. Optionally, this server functionality is also available as OPC XML DA for communication with clients based on other operating sys-tems as well as beyond firewall limits. The OPC client can read and write data from other OPC servers. A typical appli-cation could be the connection of SIMATIC programmable controllers. The OPC client is available as an optional package.

    SICAM Diamond can be used to monitor the system inter-faces, to indicate switching device states and up-to-date measured values, and also for further diagnostic purposes. Apart from these configuration-free diagnostic views, SICAM Diamond also supports message logging in event and alarm lists as well as process visualization in single-line diagrams, and can thus be used as a simple human machine interface. Messages and measured values can be archived in files (monthly). On the one hand, SICAM Diamond con-sists of the Diamond Server, which is directly connected with SICAM PAS and prepares the data for access with a web browser, and on the other hand, the SICAM Diamond Client as operator interface in the context of the Microsoft Internet Explorer. Except for the Microsoft Internet Explorer, no additional software has to be installed on the web clients.

    SICAM Diamond allows access to archive files and fault recordings through the World Wide Web. The archive files can be saved on the web client for evaluation, e.g. with Microsoft Excel. Fault recordings can be visualized directly inthe Internet Explorer.

    Further station control aspectsDuring, e.g., maintenance work or for other operational rea-sons, information exchange with the control centers or the substation itself can be blocked with the telecontrol block-ing and bay blocking functions. The telecontrol blocking function can also be configured for specific channels so as to prevent the transfer of information to one particular control center during operation, while transfer continues with other control centers. The bay blocking and telecontrol blocking functions act in both the signaling and the command directions.

    Channel-specific switching authority also makes it possible to distinguish between local control (SICAM SCC) and remote control for the switching direction, but also between control center connections. For these three functions, information-specific exceptions can be declared additionally, so that, e.g., certain messages are transmitted despite an activated block, or special commands are processed and issued despite of a defined switching authority. While a 1-out-of-n check is nor-mally effective in IEDs, i.e. only one command is accepted and issued at the same time, an m-out-of-n check is sup-ported on the side of the substation control system with SICAM PAS. This helps to define how many commands canbe processed at the same time for all IEDs. Circuit breakers can be controlled in synchronized/unsynchronized mode.

    Automation taskscan be configured in SICAM PAS with the CFC (Continuous Function Chart), which conforms to IEC 61131. In this editor, tasks are configured graphically by wiring function blocks. SICAM PAS comes with an extensive library of CFC function blocks, developed and system-tested specially for energy automation. Applications range from generation of simple group indications through switching interlocks to complex operating sequences. Creation of operating sequences is supported by the SFC Editor (Sequential Function Chart).

    In this context, additionally pre-configured and system-tested applications such as frequency-based load shedding, transformer monitoring and SF6 gas monitoring can be optionally licensed. Besides special functional components and CFCs, the scope of supply also covers operating images for SICAM SCC.

    Automation

    RedundancySICAM PAS features comprehensive redundancy functions toboost the availability of the station automation system:

    The substation control unit can be used in a duplicate configuration (system redundancy)

    The communication to IEDs and RTUs can be redundant (interface redundancy)

    Subordinate units can be duplicated (redundancy at the bay control level)

    Subunits that are only designed for communication with one master (e.g. with only one serial interface) can be supported

    The individual applications (communication protocols) oper-ate independently of each other in a hot/standby connection, i.e. a changeover, e.g., of the IEC 61850 client from one station control unit to the other due to a disturbance has no effects on the communication connection to the control cen-ter, which remains on the first station control unit without interruption. Apart from a higher stability in unaffected communication connections, the redundancy changeover of affected components takes place within a very short time (depending on application and configuration, between 250 ms and max. 3 s).

    Adjustments during operation such as bay/telecontrol block-ing, switching authority, but also marking commands to the SoftPLC for operational control of the automation functions are kept synchronous in both station control units during redundancy operation. The current adjustments are also valid after a redundancy changeover. SICAM SCC communi-cates simultaneously with both redundant station control units. A redundant structure is also possible for process visu-alization with SICAM SCC and fault-record archiving with SICAM PQ Analyzer.

    Post Disturbance Review (PDR)When an event occurs, the SICAM PAS option SICAM PDRRecorder records state changes of messages and measured values for a period of up to 6 min. The triggering event, the length of the time window (including 1 min lead time) as well as the tags to be recorded can be parameterized. The resulting fault data file is archived and can be evaluated graphically and in tabular form in the Incident Explorer of the SICAM PQ Analyzer program.

    Scope of informationThe amount of information to be processed by SICAM PAS isessentially determined by the following factors: Computer network concept (multiple-computer network or

    single-station system) Performance data of the hardware used Performance data of the network Size of the database (RDBMS) Rate of change of valuesWith a distributed PAS system using a full server and up to6 DIPs, a maximum of 350 IEDs and 20,000 data points can be supported.

    SICAM SCC process visualization for electric powerdistribution and transmission systems

    SICAM SCC HMI for SICAM and IEC 61850The process visualization and control system is a central ele-ment of the distribution and transmission of electric energy. The SICAM SCC HMI system from the SICAM product line is the optimum solution for your control and monitoring requirements. The system is independent of the Siemens substation technology installed. SICAM SCC is compatible with the SICAM PAS Power Automation System and the prod-ucts AK, TM, EMIC and MIC from the SICAM line. And in case you are not using a substation controller in your station: SICAM SCC communicates directly with bay units and protec-tion devices that support the IEC 61850 communication standard. As a result, it can be used as an overall HMI system for devices.

    SICAM SCC based on SIMATIC WinCC Common HMI for SICAM and SIMATICSICAM SCC is based on the SIMATIC WinCC system, one of the world-leading process visualization systems, adding the func-tions required for use as substation operating system of the electric process in high-voltage and medium-voltage systems. The compatibility with SIMATIC WinCC allows SICAM SCC to be used as an add-on together with SIMATIC WinCC on one com-puter. This enables an integrated system solution for visualiz-ing and controlling the industrial manufacturing processes, using SIMATIC automation devices (e.g. S7 and PCS7), and the electric energy process (e.g. with SICAM PAS).

    Figure 3.1/1 Process visualization with SICAM SCC

    SICAM SCC functions for use with SICAM and IEC 61850SICAM SCC is tailored to be used in energy applicationssupporting operators with the task of optimizing system management. It provides a fast and clear overview of the system operating states. The specific properties of the HV and MV switchgear in control and monitoring direction(double commands and double-point indications) are opti-mally implemented in the indication lists and the graphic process visualization.

    SICAM SCC logging that adds valueThe original time stamps are logged in the indication lists in ms resolution as generated in the devices. Each indication is displayed with a number of additional information items. They provide information about the up-to-dateness of the information in the event of a device or communication fail-ure (up-to-date/not up-to-date) or an active bay blocking or telecontrol blocking. In addition, they specify the cause of the status change (spontaneous, command) and, in case of a command, they provide information about the source of the operation (local, remote). In addition to process indications, command indications are logged, too. Each command opera-tion is thus documented completely and in detail, from the command initiation by the operator to command output and feedback from the process after change of status of the con-trolled switchgear.

    System overview

    Figure 3.1/2 Process visualization with SICAM SCC

    SICAM SCC from process visualization to topologicalcoloringIndustrialX controls are used to control and monitor the switchgear in the fully graphical process images (single-line diagrams). These switchgear objects support 4 different dis-play modes (IEC, DIN, SINAUT LSA, SICAM) for circuit break-ers and disconnectors. In addition, project-specific bitmaps can be defined to represent the switchgear devices and link them with the objects. Setpoint flashing and spontaneous flashing plus the display of various device and communica-tion states (e.g. up-to-date/not up-to-date, bay blocking and telecontrol blocking) are supported with the aim to provide reliable visualization. Measured values and switchgear states, which are no longer updated due to a device or communica-tion failure or an active bay blocking, can be updated manu-ally from the SICAM SCC operator station. The switchgear devices can be controlled either directly or by using Select before operate. Topological coloring is available for visual-izing the process with single-line diagrams.

    SICAM SCC shared substation automation functions with SICAM PASAdditional functions are supported when using the system in conjunction with SICAM PAS: If, for example, maintenance or tests have to be carried out for the process domain of a bay controller, it may not be desirable that status changes are actually processed by the SICAM PAS substation automation processing functions nor logged in the HMI. This can be implemented easily by activating the bay blocking function. The telecontrol blocking function can be used if you want

    status changes to be processed in the station but not trans-mitted to the higher-level control center.

    Substations are usually controlled from the higher-level control centers, whereas switching commands are to be rejected by the stations internal HMI; the switching authority is as signed to the higher-level control center. If control from the HMI is required for operational management reasons, the switching authority can be obtained. If the substation is connected to several control centers, the switching authority can also be assigned to specific channels. Additionally, different switching authorities can be used, e.g. for the different voltage levels.

    SICAM SCC reduced engineering effortExchanging data with the connected substations frequently involves several thousand indications, measured values and commands. SICAM SCC provides wizards which considerably facilitate the configuration of such information. The configu-ration tools (SICAM PAS UI Configuration, SICAM TOOLBOX II) provide the required description of the process data in elec-tronic form and can be imported conveniently using the SCC wizards. Redundant data entries are thus avoided. SCD files can be imported for IEC 61850 devices which are connected directly.

    SIMATIC WinCC basics

    SIMATIC WinCC the platform on which SICAM SCC operates

    Important characteristics overviewThe WinCC basic software is the core of an integrated system comprising WinCC, WinCC options and WinCC Add-ons, all designed to build up a solution tailored to your specific requirements. The basic software itself represents a power-ful, universally applicable process visualization system that offers all features of a sophisticated HMI software.

    Runtime softwareAll HMI functions onboard, this characterizes the runtime component of the WinCC basic software: Starting with a user administration that meets all requirements of Good Manufac-turing Practice (GMP), ranging to a user interface with lots of configurable controls and functions up to a performant mes-sage and archiving system based on the integrated MS SQL Server. Reporting and logging system as well as integrated control technology functions complete the list.

    Engineering softwareThe engineering component WinCC CS offers a set of editors that leave nothing to be desired when talking about effi-ciency or user friendliness. Libraries and wizards make the generation of a project fast and easy and reduce error-prone-ness considerably. As a software for most complex HMI tasks, WinCC is able to handle comprehensive projects and mass data.

    ScalabilityThe basic system is scalable in all respects by employing WinCC options. The basic software can already be adapted to increasing quantity structures by finely graded licenses.Yet, a chosen license can easily be upgraded in regard to the number of process tags. By employing WinCC/Server, you can run WinCC as a client/server application. WinCC/Redundancy is used to build up a highly available SCADA system.

    WinCC/CAS offers the possibility for setting up a scalable, central process data archiving. The WinCC/Web Navigator allows you to visualize and operate your plant via the Inter-net with nearly the same functionality as a WinCC client but with unbeatable flexibility.

    VirtualizationIn addition to WinCC Clients, WinCC Servers can now also be used with WinCC V7.0 SP3 under VMware ESXi, and engi-neering stations under VMware Workstation or VMware Player. This means that complex client/server structures as well as single-user systems can be configured with virtual environments.

    OpennessSIMATIC WinCC consistently builds on the highest possible openness and ability to integrate as it is designed for using standard technologies and software tools: This comprises basic technologies, operating systems, the ways of commu-nication or the ability to integrate scripts, all on a non-propri-etary basis.

    Integrated user management Using WinCC User Administrator, you assign and control users access rights for configuration and runtime. As the administrator, you can set up at any time including at run-time up to 128 user groups each containing up to 128 indi-vidual users and assign them appropriate access rights to WinCC functions. A total of 999 access rights is possible. Starting with WinCC V7, SIMATIC Logon is part of the WinCC basic system. The user administration with SIMATIC Logon integrates into the security system and user management of Windows and thus meets enhanced security requirements according to FDA regulations. SIMATIC Logon comprises a number of security mechanisms and provides a plant-wide user management.

    Figure 3.1/3 SIMATIC Logon Service at WinCC basic system

    Figure 3.1/4 Message display via WinCC AlarmControl

    Figure 3.1/5 Message display with message hit list

    User interfaceUsing WinCC standards, you can create customized config-ured user interfaces for any application. You can choose from a comprehensive range of configurable standard objects.The online language switching option enables you to switch online between languages during runtime for projectscreated for several target languages. Windows elementslike menus and toolbars can be integrated into the WinCC user interface. WinCC makes it possible to represent screen sizes of up to 10,000 x 10,000 pixels using intelligent zoom functions. The view of a process screen in runtime can be enlarged or reduced using the mouse wheel. When the pic-ture has been assigned a zoom factor, the mouse can be used for panning. After clicking on the mouse wheel, a navi-gation compass appears. Move the mouse pointer to scroll the picture in the corresponding direction. Using decluttering,

    function layers and the objects contained in them can be displayed and hidden, depending on the zoom factor.

    Message systemSIMATIC WinCC doesnt just acquire process messages and local events, it also stores them in circular archives and then makes them available as desired on a filtered or sorted basis. Messages can be derived from individual bits, can be a result of an alarm message frame directly from the automation sys-tem or of analog alarms in the case of out-of-limit condi-tions. Individual acknowledgement procedures, a freely definable message structure and configurable archiving as well as logging of messages are additional features. In the WinCC Alarm Control, the depiction of the messages can be individually customized. Extensive selection options, e.g. via a user-specific filter matrix, ensure an optimal overview. The depiction of messages already swapped out is possible as well. At the push of a button, the messages depicted can be exported or printed out as a report. System-specific functions can be implemented via freely configurable toolbar functions.

    Starting with WinCC V7.0 SP1, a search function is offered in the Alarm Editor. The filter options in the alarm system have been supplemented by equals for process value blocks and contains for text values.

    The message hit list indicates the average and total times that specific messages have been pending for (message duration) and, in a similar way, the average and total acknowledgement time.

    With the function Alarm Hiding, the operator suppresses unimportant system status messages on the screen display, though they continue to be archived in the background. The Hiding List can of course be viewed at any time and individ-ual or all alarms be displayed again by selection.

    Figure 3.1/6 Online TrendControl

    Archiving systemHistorical values or value progressions are stored in process value archives. Besides process values, WinCC also archives messages and application data. The archiving occurs in ring archives in the integrated, high-performance MS SQL Server database at a rate of up to 10,000 measured values and 100 messages per second. The storage capacity requirements are very low due to powerful, lossless compression functions. The WinCC basic system already allows up to 512 archive tags to be configured. In the final capacity stage, PowerPacks enable the expansion to up 120,000 tags. A central, option-ally redundant, long-term archiving can be implemented via a central archive server with the option WinCC/Central Archive Server.

    In the TrendControl, current values (online trend curves), his-torical process values, and desired value trend curves can be depicted in the same trend display. The depiction of mes-sages already swapped out is possible as well. In doing so, a customized scaling of the time axis and the value range can be performed (e.g. scaling in percent). The time and value axes of the individual trend curves can be moved online by mouse movement. This function, for example, can be used for batch comparisons.

    At the push of a button, integrated statistics functions enable the determination of min., max., average, and stan-dard deviation as well as the integral calculation. A logarith-mic depiction of trend curve progressions is also possible.At the push of a button, the process values selected (high-lighted) in the TrendControl can be exported to a CSV file or printed out as a report. In addition, system-specific functions can be implemented via freely configurable toolbar functions.

    Reporting and logging system WinCC has an integrated logging system that you can use to print data from WinCC or from other applications. This sys-tem prints data that was acquired at runtime in configurable layouts by means of different types of logs: from message sequence logs through system message logs and operator logs up to user reports. Before printing reports, you can save them as files and preview them on the monitor. WinCC logs can also contain data from the database and external data in CSV format as a table or a curve in a log.

    In the life cycle of an automation solution, engineering costs make up as much as 50 % of the total costs. If you want to sig-nificantly lower costs, you will need simple and efficient tools for configuring and intuitive operator prompting. SIMATIC WinCC provides both. WinCC makes available a range of edi-tors and interfaces that you can use to individually configure the functionality of your respective application: WinCC Explorer

    The WinCC Explorer is the central coordinating point in WinCC for project management and provides access to all the com-ponents of WinCC. It gives you a detailed overview of the loaded project and shows all the files that are associated with the project.

    WinCC Graphics Designer Graphics system for designing a user interface. Using the wide range of graphics objects, which are offered on several tool palettes, you can easily and quickly create complex pro-cess screens. Parameterizing and linking a graphic object to an internal PLC tag for animation purposes is as easy as can be. As soon as a new object has been placed in the picture, an easy-to-edit dialog box appears.

    Centrally changeable objects (faceplates) The configuration can also be performed using modular construction: Any graphical object can be grouped with others to form a new, user-specific faceplate, where only the interface parameters relevant for the process connec-tion come to the surface. These faceplates are centrally created and managed. Changes are automatically incorpo-rated into all places of use.

    WinCC Alarm Logging Editorfor configuring the alarm and message system for recording and logging events with display and operating facilities; freely selectable message categories, message display and reporting.

    WinCC Tag Logging Editorfor configuring the Archive System which allows the archiving of process values for acquisition, logging and compressing measurement values, e.g. for displaying trends and tables and further processing.

    WinCC Report DesignerTo document configuration and runtime data, you can gen-erate logs and reports in WinCC. The supplied layouts cover the majority of possible applications for documenting your configuration information, and for logging the runtime data. Using the WinCC Report Designer, you can change the default layouts or create new layouts that meet your own requirements.

    SIMATIC NCM PCUsing SIMATIC NCM PC, you can load WinCC projects to the corresponding target systems. This applies to both single-user and multi-user configurations. If required, you can also load WinCC single-user projects on several computers with-out needing to duplicate the WinCC project. Any changes to the WinCC project that may become necessary can be car-ried out later centrally at one location with the system dis-tributing the changes to all the affected stations. For this, you use OS references in SIMATIC NCM PC that only contain a reference to the corresponding projects.

    Editor for menus and toolbarsApplication-specific menus and toolbars can be integrated into the user interface of the runtime application. These new user interface elements can be set up, fixed or mov-able as usual in Windows.

    Wizards and librariesDelegating routine tasks helps cutting engineering time: SIMATIC WinCC supports developers by providing wizards (assistants) for easy configuration tasks. The message wiz-ard, for example, offers default settings that developers can confirm or modify. Preview windows show the effect of the chosen parameters. If the developer confirms the settings, he can implement cost-effective and practical solutions in a very short time.

    Once graphic objects have been created, the library makes it possible to reuse them in other pictures and/or projects. Developers can create company-, technology- or industry-specific standards, making it quick and easy to create proj-ects. The objects for those projects are finished and sorted by topic in the library and can be brought into the pictures via drag & drop. Inserting objects in the library is just as easy. In order to be able to make full use of multiple languages in WinCCs runtime mode, objects like these should be config-ured in several languages.

    Engineering of large projectsTo keep an overview of the host of tags, images and functions that are used in a project, WinCC offers a cross-reference list that can be generated individually on the basis of filter set-tings. You create the cross-reference list using the Cross Refer-ence Editor.

    The texts for the runtime application can be edited in all pri-mary languages of Windows. Besides static texts, this also includes the tooltips. At the push of a button, a switch between these languages can be executed while in runtime.For the export and import of all texts in the CSV format, the WinCC Text Distributor is provided, through which the transla-tion can be easily carried out via standard tools.To facilitate the translation of message texts, a text block library (Text Library) exists, which in tabular form lists the terms used in the individual languages. Convenient filter mechanisms make working with large quantity structures easier.

    For convenient and quick configuration of mass data, WinCC provides a configuration tool based on Microsoft Excel. You can read in existing projects and create new ones. In addition to process connections and process tags, you can edit mea-sured value archives, alarm messages and the Text Library.

    The table format allows convenient editing, which also includes auto fill-in. Experienced users can expand their options by using macros based on VBA (Visual Basic for Applications).

    Configuring multilingual applicationsThe configuration user interface of the WinCC system soft-ware can be switched between English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian. WinCC is also offered in an ASIAN ver-sion for China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan. The configuration user interface of the Asian version of WinCC is switchable between the respective Asian national language installed and English. With that, configuration personnel from other countries can make any necessary changes to the project in the English configuration environment, e.g. in case of maintenance.
