iRTU, iGW & iRTUe Series User Manual

1. Introduction The iRTU & iGW Series includes a range of products designed for electrical facility control and supervision, whether at power stations, HV substations or MV/LV transformer stations. iRTU Series products concentrate all data coming from the various facility devices, either through high point density digital and analog inputs or using communication protocols, subsequently sending them to different control centers as defined by the electric utility. The main product in the range is the iRTU, which operates as an electrical facility Remote Terminal Unit with high scalability, both for process and input/output configuration capabilities. iRTUe auxiliary units allow simple expansion with both digital and analog additional inputs and outputs. Other products, such as the iGW units, are designed to be used as communication protocol concentrators, similar to the iRTU but without direct input/output option. Thus, iRTU & iGW Series products may perform different functions within a facility based on their configuration, either at the software and database level or at the acquisition and communication card level. Therefore, they may operate within a facility as Remote Terminal Units (RTU), as concentrators of data from other devices (gateways), as BCUs (Bay Control Units) or as I/O IEDs, complying at all times with the required power transmission and distribution industry standards.

2.2. iGW Series: versatile communication gateways for electrical facilities The iGW units are specialized communication units for electrical facilities that allow data conversion between different protocols. Data from multiple devices (meters, protection relays, and other IEDs) may be acquired using field protocols (e.g.: IEC60870-5-101/102/103/104, IEC61850, DNP3.0, DLMS, Modbus, Procome, etc.), processed and transferred to one or multiple Control Centers using protocols such as IEC60870-5104/101, IEC61850, DNP3.0, and Modbus RTU/TCP.

iGW units provide the same communication capabilities, features and technical specifications than the iRTU units. The only difference between iRTU and iGW units is the I/O capability for direct acquisition: iGW units have no internal I/O board. Anyway, if required, iGW units can be connected to external iRTUe units (2.3) in order to provide them with I/O capabilities.

14.6.2. Using a USB drive These are the steps to follow to upload/update the license of the iRTU/iGW unit using a USB flash drive: 1) Connect the USB flash drive to a PC. 2) Create a directory named UPLOAD_BIN in the root directory of the USB drive. If the directory is already present, its contents should be deleted. 3) Copy the license file to be uploaded to the UPLOAD_BIN directory in the USB drive. 4) Connect the USB drive to the USB port in the iRTU/iGW unit. 5) Open the maintenance console (section 15) and reload the iRTU/iGW unit with the reload command. When the iRTU/iGW unit initializes, the new license is loaded. 6) Once the license has been correctly updated, the USB flash drive may be removed.

If an UPLOAD_CONF directory is present in the root directory of the USB drive (section 14.4.2), it is recommended to delete the directory or its contents. Otherwise, not only the license will load, but also the configuration (.ccx files) located in the UPLOAD_CONF directory of the USB drive, which will replace the current configuration of the unit.

If the configuration upload and the firmware & license update of the iRTU/iGW unit are to be performed simultaneously, an UPLOAD_CONF directory (containing the configuration .ccx files to be uploaded; refer to section 14.4.2) and an UPLOAD_BIN directory (containing the new firmware and the license) should be created in the root directory of the USB drive.

14.6.3. Using FTP These are the steps to follow to update the license of the iRTU/iGW unit using FTP: 1) From the FTP manager, connect to the appropriate address (10.10.10.100 for USB port connection; IP address of the iRTU/iGW unit for Ethernet connection) entering user name and password as discussed in section 14.1.3 (user = isupport, password = irtusupport). 2) Access the BIN directory in the iRTU/iGW unit.

14.8.2. Using a USB drive These are the steps to follow to download a configuration from iRTU/iGW units with iAppManager versions 3.0.0 and later (ANNEX I) using a USB flash drive: 1) 2) 3) 4)

Connect the USB flash drive to a PC. Create a directory named DOWNLOAD_CONF in the root directory of the USB drive. Connect the USB drive to the USB port in the iRTU/iGW unit. The iRTU/iGW detects the USB drive automatically and saves the contents of the CONF directory to the DOWNLOAD_CONF directory that has been created. The front panel LED STATE blinks in red during the writing operation. 5) Once the configuration is downloaded, remove the USB drive from the iRTU/iGW unit and connect it to a USB port in the PC. 6) The configuration of the iRTU/iGW unit is now in the DOWNLOAD_CONF directory of the USB drive. For iRTU/iGW units with iAppManager versions prior to 3.0.0 the steps to follow to download the configuration are described below: 1) 1) 2) 3)

Connect the USB flash drive to a PC. Create a directory named DOWNLOAD_CONF in the root directory of the USB drive. Connect the USB drive to the USB port in the iRTU/iGW unit. Then, shutdown the iRTU/iGW unit. During start up, the iRTU/iGW detects the USB drive automatically and saves the contents of the CONF directory to the DOWNLOAD_CONF directory that has been created. 4) Once the configuration is downloaded, remove the USB drive from the iRTU/iGW unit and connect it to a USB port in the PC. 5) The configuration of the iRTU/iGW unit is now in the DOWNLOAD_CONF directory of the USB drive. This procedure not only downloads the configuration (.ccx files) of the iRTU/iGW unit, but also the rest of files saved in the CONF directory. If the contents of the BIN folder is to be downloaded, the above steps should be followed, but creating a DOWNLOAD_BIN directory instead of a DOWNLOAD_CONF directory in the root directory of the USB drive. The .bin files (firmware file, license file, etc.), timezones folder, etc. will be stored in the DOWNLOAD_BIN directory.

14.8.3. Using FTP The configuration of an iRTU/iGW unit may also be downloaded using FTP. These are the steps to follow: 1) From the FTP manager, connect to the appropriate address (10.10.10.100 for USB port connection; IP address of the iRTU/iGW unit for Ethernet connection) entering user name and password as discussed in section 14.1.3 (user = isupport, password = irtusupport). 2) Access the CONF directory in the iRTU/iGW unit and copy its contents (.ccx configuration files) to the PC. The firmware (iGRTU.bin or iGComms.bin file), license files, and timezones folder may also be downloaded from the BIN directory.

ipstats command Displays IP traffic statistics for PPP connections such as TETRA, GPRS and 3G. It should be used to troubleshoot communication problems. route command Allows users to show and manage the IP routing table. When the sub-network where the iRTU/iGW unit is connected, has access to other sub-networks, it may be required to set up some routing rules. For field testing purposes, the iRTU/iGW console features a command that is able to create/delete IP routes: route add (creates a new route) & route del (deletes an existing route). This allows the user to set and test routing rules without restarting the device. Syntax for the route command is as follows: route [list|print|show]   

add: adds an entry to the IP routing table. del: deletes an entry from the IP routing table. list, print and show: route list, route print and route show commands display current routing table.

Example: The following command sets the gateway (next hop) 192.165.1.1 to access to network 172.10.x.x: route add 172.10.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 gw 192.165.1.1 In order to display the current routing table after adding the route above: route list, or route print, or route show The following command will delete the route above: route del 172.10.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 gw 192.165.1.1 All modifications done by this command are volatile, being lost if iRTU/iGW device is restarted. Once routes are tested and known, they can be configured through the iConf’s TCP/IP interface properties, Routes section (refer to iConf User Manual) and therefore, routes will be added to the iRTU/iGW configuration and will we kept (i.e. they will not get lost when the device restarts).

16. Licensing system iRTU and iGW unit licensing system is accomplished by a .bin file which defines the communication capabilities including number of devices (IEDs, master stations), number of points and protocols supported. iRTU and iGW units are supplied by iGrid T&D with the proper licenses installed according to the user’s requirements. However, the users may need to expand the iRTU/iGW communication capabilities, and then they will need to update the existing license. In this case, the user should contact the distributor in order to verify the capabilities (communication protocols, number of devices, number of points, functionalities, etc.) of the contractual iRTU/iGW package and, if required, ask for extending the iRTU/iGW license capabilities. Once the license is expanded by iGrid T&D, user should update the new license provided. In order to update the license, follow the steps described in section 14.6 of the present manual.

16.1. iRTU & iGW license errors When the configuration applied to the iRTU/iGW unit exceeds the maximum number of IEDs/master stations or number of points, or it uses a functionality not enabled in the license (redundancy, PLC), the console shows a license error with the following description: License limit error. Module “x” missing. Below images show different iRTU/iGW license errors:   

Figure 162 shows a license error due to IEC61850 protocol is not included in the iRTU/iGW license. Figure 163 shows a license error due to PLC functionality is not enabled in the iRTU/iGW license. Figure 164 displays a license error due to redundancy functionality is not enabled in the iRTU/iGW license.

17. Hot-Standby redundancy iRTU and iGW units can be deployed on a hot-standby redundant configuration. This means that the iGW/iRTU in standby becomes active automatically as soon as it detects that its peer it's down. Redundant iGW/iRTU units use a special communication link used to know each other’s state. Each iRTU/iGW sends it state to its peer and receives the state from its peer cyclically through this live link. The iRTU/iGW determines its own state (role) based on the state received from its peer. For example: An active iRTU/iGW unit that has been receiving a “Standby OK” state from its peer and that stops receiving its peer state, will change its state to “Active Alone”. An “Active Alone” iRTU/iGW that receives a “Standby Alone” or “Standby OK” from its peer, will change its state to “Active Ok”. N.B.: Redundancy states (i.e. roles) will be further explained in next section 17.3. Therefore, the live link between redundant iRTU/iGW devices is a critical point in the redundancy system. We recommend the use of a direct serial link, using RS422, as shown in Figure 165. Refer to section 17.6 for information about the serial cable layout.

Figure 165 – Redundant iRTU/iGW devices connected via direct serial link (RS422).

If a serial connection is not possible (because of distance between them, or any other reason) use network communication (UDP/IP).

Figure 166 – Redundant iRTU/iGW devices connected via UDP.

Important concepts when operating with two iRTU/iGW devices in redundant mode: 





Active iRTU/iGW: o

Runs in normal operation.

o

Only the active unit communicates with field IEDs and master stations.

Standby iRTU/iGW: o

It does not communicate with IEDs/master stations (only the active unit does it).

o

The standby iGW/iRTU connects against its peer to be updated in real-time with the data received by the active unit.

o

It will take over the active role when its peer fails.

The above Active & Standby roles can be exchanged at any time with no loss of information using the Switchover command. The switchover command can be operated from: o

The maintenance console using the switchover command in the rdcy section (see section 17.3)

o

A master station, adding the #rdcy.SwitchOver command in the data base configuration (see section 17.5).

─ Index ─ 17. Hot-Standby Redundancy

139

iRTU, iGW & iRTUe Series User Manual







Primary iRTU/iGW: o

The Primary unit has preference at boot time when both iRTU/iGW devices are started up simultaneously. In this case, its peer (the Secondary unit) waits 3 seconds before starting listening to the Primary unit. This means that, when both units are started at the same time (and they both run successfully), the Primary unit will take the role of active, and the Secondary will take the standby role.

o

Do not confuse Primary with Active. The iRTU/iGW unit set as Primary can run on either Active or Standby modes.

Secondary iRTU/iGW: o

At boot time, the Secondary unit waits for 3 seconds, and then starts listening to its peer (the Primary unit).

o

Do not confuse Secondary with Standby. The iRTU/iGW unit set as Secondary can run on either Active or Standby modes.

Redundant iRTU/iGW units must be configured Primary or Secondary (i.e., one unit must be configured to be Primary and the other to be Secondary) through the iDevSetup menu: o

In order to access the iDevSetup menu, follow the instructions given in section 15.4.1.

o

Refer to section 15.4.2.6 for details on how to set the redundancy role through the iDevSetup menu.

Redundant iRTU/iGW units should have: 

Same configuration: user must apply same configuration to both iRTU/iGW devices.



Same firmware, iKernel and iDevSetup version: o Firmware and iKernel version can be checked by entering the info command in the maintenance console (15.3.2.15). o iDevSetup version can be retrieved by accessing the iDevSetup menu (15.4.1.) and selecting the Show system info option (15.4.2.3)



Data synchronization between redundant iRTU/iGW is always done through the IP network. User must configure a different IP address for each iRTU/iGW device: Primary IP and Secondary IP (see Figure 165 & Figure 166). These IP addresses are persistent (Primary device will always have Primary IP address, and vice versa) and are used for data synchronization between active and standby units.



Primary IP and Secondary IP addresses should also be used by the user to connect to the iRTU/iGW devices for management. That is, to connect, configure and monitor each unit via iConf. o



Both IP addresses must be configured in the iConf’s properties panel, in the Redundancy section (17.2).

Besides the above Primary IP and Secondary IP addresses, both devices will have the same operative IPs (one or more) as defined in the iConf’s IP interfaces section. o

This/these is/are the IP address/es of the active unit used in the communication with the field IEDs and master stations (Control Centers). That is, the IP address/es used by other devices to connect to the active unit.

iRTU, iGW & iRTUe Series User Manual

o



In case of failure of the current active iRTU/iGW, the standby unit will become active and it will enable all interfaces defined inside the IP interfaces section, becoming a new device in the network to take over the role of the previous one.

When redundant iRTU/iGW devices are interconnected via UDP, each iRTU/iGW performs continuous pings to a user defined IP address in order to verify the Ethernet connection. This IP address corresponds to the Network Check IP parameter in the iConf’s Redundancy settings (17.1). o

The selection of the Network Check IP address is an important point, because in case of failure to connect to this IP address, the iRTU/iGW will automatically switch to Standby role if it does not receive the state of its peer.

o

Choose a Network Check IP address that is always available.



Field events with time stamp information can be displayed in both Active and Standby unit’s maintenance consoles.



When a switchover is performed, the redundant iRTU/iGW devices change its role. Switchover can be of two types: o

Automatic, after the Active unit fails.

o

Manual:  





through the iRTU/iGW maintenance console (17.3). through the #rdcy.SwitchOver command from a master station (section 17.5).

After a switchover is performed: o

the Active unit will reset and change its role to Standby,

o

the Standby unit will take over the role of Active.

Most maintenance console’s commands (15.3) are also available in the Standby unit (e.g. soe ram, date, info, ver, list dv, list mv, list cm, list sp, etc.). There are others like mod, sim section’s commands, etc. which are not available in the Standby unit.

17.1. Redundancy configuration in iConf Redundancy settings must be configured in the iConf tool: 1) Select the main node (i.e. the iRTU/iGW) from the System panel. 2) Select the Redundancy section from the Properties panel (Figure 167). 3) Configure parameters of Redundancy section. Redundancy parameter description can be found below.

17.2. First time redundancy configuration The first time you configure redundancy in iRTU/iGW units we recommend user to follow below instructions: 1) First, configure and test only one iRTU/iGW device as if it were to be no redundant (i.e., as a standalone unit). 2) Once configuration is tested successfully, configure one iRTU/iGW to be the Primary unit and the other the Secondary unit through the iDevSetup menu: a) In order to access the iDevSetup menu, follow the instructions given in section 15.4.1. b) Refer to section 15.4.2.6 for details on how to set the redundancy role through the iDevSetup menu. 3) Use iConf tool to enable redundancy and to set the appropriate redundancy settings (see section 17.1). 4) Apply same configuration to both devices and restart them. 5) Check redundancy status through the iRTU/iGW maintenance console (see section 17.4).

17.2.1. Configuration and redundancy operation test example In this example, we will configure two iRTU/iGW devices in redundant mode as follow: 

Redundancy management link: serial type. iRTU/iGW devices will be interconnected via direct serial link using RS422, and COM3 serial ports (Figure 168).



Persistent IP addresses for management and data synchronization (Figure 168): o o

iRTU, iGW & iRTUe Series User Manual

1) Before enabling the redundancy in the iConf’s Redundancy section, configure and test the database and communication to IEDs/master stations, in one iRTU/iGW unit as it was a standalone unit. Configure IP address of the device as in Figure 169. 2) Connect to the iRTU/iGW units and set one as Primary and the other as Secondary: a) By default, all iRTU/iGW units have Primary role. If the unit to be defined as Primary, has already a Primary role, do not change it. b) If the unit to be configured as Secondary, has a Primary role, change it to Secondary. See example of Figure 171:

Figure 171 – Example of role change through the iDevSetup menu. The role is changed from Primary to Secondary.

3) Configure redundancy in iConf as in Figure 168. 4) Apply same configuration to both units and restart them (first Primary and later Secondary unit). 5) During initialization, Primary unit will take the Primary IP address, and the Secondary unit the Secondary IP address. From now on, use these IP addresses for management in iConf (i.e. to update configuration, open the respective maintenance consoles, etc.). Figure 172 and Figure 173 show the Primary and Secondary maintenance console respectively. In order to access the maintenance console, use the Primary IP and Secondary IP addresses, respectively. As shown in figures below, after the Primary unit has initialized and loaded the configuration files, it starts listening to its peer. It receives a hearing state from the Secondary unit, and therefore, changes its state to active alone (actAlone). Few seconds later, the Secondary unit sends a standby alone state (bckAlone). Then the Primary unit updates its state to Active (actOK) and the Secondary unit to Standby (bckOk).

the Active unit will reset and change its role to Standby (Figure 183),

o

the Standby unit will take over the role of Active.

Figure 183 – switchover command in rdcy section

17.4. Redundancy states As can be seen on previous Figure 172, Figure 173 and Figure 183, the redundancy state of Primary and Secondary units is shown in the maintenance console as follows: 

Rdcy: my state: reports the current iRTU/iGW redundancy state. It is related to the internal point #rdcy.MyState (17.5). For example: o

Rdcy: my state = actAlone (Figure 184): the iRTU/iGW state is Active alone (actAlone). I.e. iRTU/iGW unit has Active role and there is no iRTU/iGW connected.

Rdcy: peer state: reports the current peer iRTU/iGW state. It is related to the internal point #rdcy.PeerState (17.5). For example: o

Rdcy: peer state = bckOK (Figure 185): the peer unit is Standby OK (bckOK). I.e. peer status is Standby and is connected to iRTU/iGW, which has the Active role.

Figure 184 – Redundancy states examples (I)

Figure 185 – Redundancy states examples (II)

Below is a description of the main redundancy statuses for iRTU/iGW: 

booting: iRTU/iGW unit is initializing.



hearing: iRTU/iGW is hearing the peer state.



actAlone (Active alone): iRTU/iGW has the Active role and there is no peer connected (Figure 186). After a switchover, the standby unit also takes the role of Active alone and keeps this role until the peer connects.

Figure 186 - Redundancy states examples (III)



bckAlone (Standby alone): this value reports one of the following conditions: o

When the iRTU/iGW unit connects to the peer unit and the peer unit is active, it will enter in standby mode and change its role to Standby alone (Figure 187). After being synchronized with the active unit, it will change its role to bckOK (see description below).

o

When redundant units are connected via UDP and connection to the configured IP address in Network Check IP (17.1) fails, iRTU/iGW will change to Standby alone mode if it does not receive the heartbeat signal from its peer. ─ Index ─

17.5. Redundancy internal points iRTU & iGW units use internal signals that provide information on redundancy statuses. These signals are the following: 

#rdcy.IamActive: this signal reports whether the current iRTU/iGW role is Active.



#rdcy.IamPrimary: reports whether the current iRTU/iGW is Primary or Secondary. That is, it lets know whether the current Active unit is Primary or Secondary.



#rdcy.SwitchOverReady: reports switchover availability. In other words, based on iRTU/iGW states it reports whether it is possible to switch roles.



#rdcy.MyState: reports current iRTU/iGW state. It uses the same states as shown in previous section 17.4.



#rdcy.PeerState: reports current peer state. It uses the same states as shown in previous section 17.4.

The current value of these internal points can be shown in the iRTU/iGW console by using the list dv all command (15.3.2.16). User can also be interested in adding these points in the iRTU/iGW configuration, so that text, state, display options, and other settings can be customized. For example, it can be useful to send the current #rdcy.IamPrimary point state to Control Center, so that operator can monitor which is the active unit (the Primary or the Secondary) at any moment. Following are the steps to include the redundancy signals in the project database: 

Run the iConf configuration tool and open the relevant configuration



Select the main node (iRTU or iGW) in the System panel.



Select the Digital Inputs tab in the signal list.



Add 5 signals.
