Communication Protocols

The three independent communications ports along with optional support for Modbus™ and DNP3, and ASCII protocols provide easy access to integrating the protection, control, metering, status reporting, and monitoring functions into a substation automation system. Basler’s BE1-1051 relay also offers the option of GOOSE protocol, while the BE1-11f and BE1-700 series offers BESTnet.

IEC 61850 Protocol
Basler Electric’s implementation of IEC 61850 has been conformance tested to IEC 61850-10 by KEMA. IEC 61850 provides protection and control operations peer to peer and protection, control, and metering with a data concentrator. Communications is provided over 10/100Mb copper or 100Mb fiber.

Read more about Basler's IEC 61850 Protocol options for the BE1-11 series of relays.

DNP3 Protocol
Basler Electric’s implementation of DNP (Distributed Network Protocol) V3.00 is fully compliant with DNP V3.00 Subset Definition Level 2. As a user, verification testing offers reassurance of the interoperability of certified DNP3 products. Being able to easily integrate IEDs with a master or data concentrator on multi-drop RS485 networks reduces costs by eliminating the need for port switches and/or communications processors.

Modbus Protocol
Modbus protocol was developed by Modicon for use in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs).

Modbus communications use a master-slave technique in which only the master can initiate a transaction. This transaction is called a query. When appropriate, a slave device responds to the query. When a Modbusmaster communicates with a slave, information is provided or requested by the master.

Modbus has gained a high level of popularity for IED implementation.

Click for more information on Basler’s Modbus protocol options.

ASCII Protocol
ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. It consists of a set of codes used to represent letters, numbers, control characters, and a few symbols.

ASCII data is in wide use when communicating with off-the-shelf terminal emulation programs such as ProComm Plus, Windows Terminal or Hyperterminal. Data can be sent and received from IEDs using readable pneumonic words.

For details on setup, download PC-COM01, an application note on enabling ASCII communication with a relay via Windows95™ Hyperterminal.

Compatible Communications - the BE1-1051

The BE1-1051 Overcurrent Protection System a full-featured feeder protection, monitoring, and control system offers a BESTNet option using TCP/IP as its core protocol – making it compatible not only with the vast majority of utility and industrial intranets, but also with the worldwide internet.

The BE1-1051 also offers the GOOSE (Generic Object Oriented System Event) protocol as part of its Ethernet option. GOOSE provides peer-to-peer communications between any number of relays. GOOSE is an open standard that is part of the new IEC61850 protocol – the successor to UCA2.0. GOOSE offers several advantages over the proprietary serial-port based peer-to-peer schemes offered by several other relay manufacturers.

In addition to GOOSE, the 1051 BESTNet option also offers:

  • Metering & Status Web Pages (provided by embedded web server)
  • Full Basler ASCII protocol over TCP or Telnet connection
  • NTP Time synchronization to external NTP server
  • Email notification of up to 8 different user-programmed conditions (programmed by BESTlogic, external SMTP mail server required)
  • Full BESTCOMS support over Ethernet. BESTCOMS can use serial communications or an Ethernet TCP/IP connection for all functions.
     
 

BE1-700 Series - An economical, highly functional communications solution


The BE1-11f and both BE1-700 Series relays, the BE1-700C and BE1-700V, offer a BESTNet option which includes:

  • Embedded web server with metering, status, and fault summary information
  • Email alerts of as many as seven user-defined conditions
  • Full BESTCOMS support over Ethernet
  • Full Basler ASCII protocol for terminal mode communications (TELNET) or custom programmed application access
  • Support for DHCP or static IP addressing.
  • IP Discovery function included in BESTCOMS.
BE1-700 Series Digital Protective Relay is available for Voltage/Frequency protection and Overcurrent protection

Basler offers the communications solution to meet your application needs and budget.
