CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUPN60 NETWORK STABILITY AND SYNCHROPHASOR MEASUREMENT SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 5-475Configuration TypeRange: G2, E3-2.0Default: G2This setting specifies the method used to describe GOOSE subscription configuration in SCL. See the UR SeriesCommunications Guide for details. Basically, in the G2 mode, the CID file contains IED elements for IEDs subscribed to bythis IED containing GOOSE subscription information. In the E3 2.0 mode, the CID file has only one IED element andGOOSE subscription information is coded in data objects in the standard LGOS logical node used to monitor reception ofthe subscribed GOOSE. UR 7.30 or later accepts either mode.GOOSEThe path is Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE.Figure 5-12: IEC 61850 TxGOOSE Access Points panelTxGOOSEIEC 61850 GOOSE is an efficient method for simultaneous high-speed delivery of a set of generic substation eventinformation in a publishing physical device to more than one subscribing physical device. A TxGOOSE is a UR elementimplementing a single IEC 61850 GOOSE message publishing service. The subscribing function in URs is performed byRxGOOSE elements, as described in the next section. Each UR with IEC 61850 order code options has eight TxGOOSEelements. Each TxGOOSE element can publish the values of up to 64 FlexLogic or FlexAnalog operands in the UR.Published TxGOOSE messages configured in the EnerVista UR Setup software can be subscribed by and the publishedoperand values understood by other UR devices. In fact, they can be subscribed to and understood by any device of anymanufacturer that implements the IEC 61850 edition 1.0 or 2.0 GOOSE subscription mechanism. The messages arepublished with a multicast address so that the network sends the messages to all devices; any number of devices thatwant to subscribe can.The entities whose values are published in GOOSE messages are known as members. The members are itemized in anordered list known as a data set. Each TxGOOSE can use any one of the data sets provided. See the DataSets section laterfor details.NOTEDo not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation ofthose protocols.
