Configuration Changes as of AB 1.1 (CBP 2.4)ΒΆ
The IEC60870 protocol allows link-ups between AC500 CPUs with onboard Ethernet (e.g. PM595-4ETH and PM591-2ETH) and external systems.
The link-up takes place via the onboard Ethernet interface of the CPU. As of Automation Builder Version 1.1 telecontrol is also supported for CPUs that provide more than one Ethernet interface (e.g. PM595-4ETH and PM591-2ETH). This allows to use different Ethernet interfaces for IEC-60870 connections, hence, telecontrol configuration is changed. Further, as of this version terminology is aligned with IEC60870 standard and provides additional features that are described in this chapter. For a description on principle telecontrol configuration, see Configuration Configuration up to and including CBP Version 2.3.
