AX-S4 MMS
IEC 61850 Interface for Windows Applications

Description
AX-S4 MMS (pronounced "access for MMS") provides access to real-time data via IEC61850 for any Windows™ compatible application supporting the OLE for Process Control (OPC) and Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) interfaces. AX-S4 MMS gives you a high-level interface to real-time data that lowers your integration cost by providing you everything needed to interface IEC 61850 , UCA®2, or MMS data with applications on the Windows platform in a single easy-to-use package. AX-S4 MMS provides “plug-in” access to Ethernet based devices supporting the IEC 61850 protocols for any OPC or DDE enabled client application such as SCADA/HMI and real-time data historians like the OSIsoft™ PI system.

Key Features

  • Single package provides everything needed to interface IEC 61850 data with Windows based applications:
    • IEC 61850 Client using OPC 3.0 server Data Access and DDE interfaces supports ACSI functions of IEC 61850.
    • IEC 61850 GOOSE/GSSE publisher and subscriber using OPC server Data Access interface.
    • IEC 61850 Server using an OPC 3.0 client interface enables implementation of IEC 61850 servers, data concentrators and gateways without separate hardware and software components.
    • Interactive MMS Object Explorer for point & click access to network objects.
  • IEC 61850 client functions supports all ACSI services via the OPC and DDE interfaces including buffered and unnbuffered reporting, controls, logs, settings, GOOSE/GSSE, files, and self-descriptions.
  • Runs over standard Ethernet adapters supporting TCP/IP transport protocols including support for IEC61850 parts 6-1, 7-2, 7-3, 7-4, and 8-1 including the Abstract Communication Service Interface (ACSI), GOOSE, and GSSE.
  • Automatically maps IEC 61850 time stamps and quality flags to OPC time stamps and quality flags to minimize special processing by OPC clients.
  • Flexible reporting options enables standard OPC clients to subscribe to and receive data via IEC 61850 reports.
  • Supports MMS Variable services via OPC and DDE. MMS Journal, Domain, Program Invocation and File services are supported via DDE interface.
  • Data point definitions are extracted directly from devices or via SCL file simplifying setup and reducing errors.
  • No predetermined limits on the number of data points or remote devices that can be accessed.
