MMS S CAN D ELAY has a default value of 1000 milliseconds. Valid values are 2
ms to 10,000 ms (10 seconds). The MMS Scan Delay parameter is the time
between each issuance of a MMS read command.
IEC 61850 Reports and GOOSE messages are generated by the IED. Therefore,
the MMS Scan Delay setting has no impact on the timing of those types of
messages. The MMS Scan Delay parameter also has no impact on MMS writes.
The lower you put the MMS Scan Delay parameter, the more network capacity
there will be with MMS Read network traffic. If you do not configure an IED to
read any Data Attributes using MMS messages, then this parameter has no
effect.
In the Detailed Properties tab there is one parameter, Device File, which is not
editable. It is the path on your PC where ProSoft 61850 Configuration Manager
stores its own copy of the CID, SCD, or ICD file for this IED.
2.3.2 Delete
Right-click on the IEC-61850 icon and choose D ELETE to remove this IED from
the current configuration.
2.3.3 IEC 61850 Configuration
Double-click the IEC-61850 icon, or right-mouse-click and choose C ONFIGURE , to
show the IEC 61850 Mapping Tool window.
In the tree view on the left, expand (click) the + sign. This shows the Logical
Devices (notice the little "LD" in the icon) of an IED. Now expand one of the
Logical Devices in the IED to see the Logical Nodes (notice the little "LN" in the
icon) within it.
