14.11.7 Operation principleUpon receiving signals at its inputs, IEC 61850 generic communication I/O functions 16inputs (SP16GGIO) function will send the signals over IEC 61850-8-1 to the equipmentor system that requests this signals. To be able to get the signal, one must use other tools,described in the Engineering manual and define which function block in which equipmentor system should receive this information.There are also 16 output signals that show the input status for each input as well as an ORtype output combined for all 16 input signals. These output signals are handled in PST.14.12 IEC 61850 generic communication I/O functionsMVGGIO14.12.1 IdentificationFunction description IEC 61850identificationIEC 60617identificationANSI/IEEE C37.2device numberIEC61850 generic communication I/OfunctionsMVGGIO - -14.12.2 FunctionalityIEC61850 generic communication I/O functions (MVGGIO) function is used to send theinstantaneous value of an analog signal to other systems or equipment in the substation.It can also be used inside the same IED, to attach a RANGE aspect to an analog value andto permit measurement supervision on that value.14.12.3 Function blockIEC09000239-2-en.vsdMVGGIOBLOCK^IN^VALUERANGE14.12.4 SignalsTable 482:MVGGIO Input signalsName Type Default DescriptionBLOCK BOOLEAN 0 Block of functionIN REAL 0 Analog input valueSection 14 1MRK 506 335-UUS AMonitoring658Technical manual
