yes / no

Additionally to the internal "IEC 104 server simulation" the router function is enabled when this parameter is activated. Therefore the software is in router mode after the server simulation is started.
see IEC 60870-5-104 : RTU ( Server/ Slave ) Simulation

With this parameter the telegram format of the connected substation is selected ( at the moment only IEC 60870-5-101 ).

All connected substations which should be taken into account from the IEC104 router have to be entered into the station list.

In order to insert the addresses please proceed as follows :

activate "insert routing addresses" ( button "insert" is displayed ).
Insert in the fields "Address of ASDU" / "Channel number" the station to be entered. Take over the address by clicking "insert". When all stations are inserted please deactivate "Insert routing addresses" ( button "insert" disappears ).

In order to delete one or more stations out of this list select it and click "delete".

yes / no

When this parameter is activated the message "End of initialization" will be transmitted automatically from LIAN 98 ( server ) as soon as the connection to the client is established.

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the substation message "End of initialization" has to be sent from the substation.

yes / no

The current system time of the PC will be given back in an activation confirmation ( ACTCON ) of a clock SYNC command ( TypId 103 ), if this parameter is activated. Otherwise the received time will only be mirrored.

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the clock SYNC command is normally forwarded to the substation.

yes / no

When this parameter is activated the system time of the PC is entered as time stamp before sending the telegrams. Otherwise the telegram remains unchanged as it previously has been edited by the user.

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the current time is already entered by the substation

yes / no

When this parameter is activated LIAN 98 will send during server simulation automatically an "activation confirmation" ( COT 7 ) or "deactivation confirmation" ( COT 9 ) after the receipt of an "activation" ( COT 6 ) or "deactivation" ( COT 8 ) command.

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the confirmation messages ( COT 7 ) or ( COT 9 ) has to be sent from the substation.

yes / no

When this parameter is activated LIAN 98 will send during server simulation automatically an "activation termination" ( COT 10 ) delayed by the "ACTTERM delay time".

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the "activation termination" ( COT 10 ) e.g. at the end of a general interrogation or after the command execution has to be sent from the substation.

yes / no

When this parameter is activated LIAN 98 will send during server simulation automatically an "activation confirmation" ( ID 107, COT 7 ) after the receipt of a "Test command activation" ( ID 107, COT 6 ).

For the operation of the router this parameter is activated for the test of the network connection between client and server.

yes / no

Additionally to the LIAN 98 internal "IEC 101 server simulation" the router function is enabled when this parameter is activated. Therefore the software is in the router mode after the master simulation is started.
see also IEC 60870-5-101 : RTI ( Master ) Simulation

With this parameter the telegram format of the connected client/ master is selected. ( at the moment only IEC 60870-5-104 ).

yes / no

A substation sends automatically an "activation confirmation" ( COT 7 ) or "deactivation confirmation" ( COT 9 ) after the receipt of an "activation" ( COT 6 ) or "deactivation" ( COT 8 ).

LIAN 98 will forward a confirmation message after the receipt to the client computer of the control center when this parameter is activated.

yes / no

A substation sends e.g. at the end of a general interrogation or after the command execution automatically an "activation termination" ( COT 10 ).

LIAN 98 will forward a termination message after the receipt to the computer of the control center when this parameter is activated.

All connected clients which should be taken into account from the LIAN 98 router have to be entered into the channel list.

In order to insert the channel numbers please proceed as follows :

activate "insert routing channel" ( button "insert" is displayed ).
Insert in the fields "Channel number" the channel to be entered. Take over the channel number by clicking "insert". When all channels are inserted please deactivate "Insert routing channels" ( button "insert" disappears ).

In order to delete one or more channels out of this list select it and click "delete".

yes / no

When this parameter is activated LIAN 98 will send at first a time synchronization command after the initialization of the communication and repeat it cyclic if necessary ( time SYNC cycle ).

For the router operation this parameter can be activated or deactivated. If it is deactivated a time synchronizations command from the computer of the control center ( client ) is expected and forwarded to the substation.

yes / no

When this parameter is activated the system time of the PC is entered as time stamp before sending the telegrams. Otherwise the telegram remains unchanged as it previously has been edited by the user.

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the current time is already entered from the computer of the control center ( client ).

yes / no

When this parameter is activated LIAN 98 will send a general interrogation command after the initialization of the communication and repeat it cyclic ( GA cycle time ).

For the router operation this parameter can be activated or deactivated. If it is deactivated the general interrogation command is expected from the computer of the control center ( client ) and forwarded to the substation.

Unbalanced : ( party line )
All stations to be processed at this line have to be inserted into the scan list. LIAN 98 establishes the connection to this stations and interrogates continuously the user data of this stations.

In order to insert the addresses please proceed as follows :

Activate "Insert scan addresses" ( button "insert" will be displayed ).
Insert in the fields "Link address" / "Address of ASDU" the station to be entered in the scan list.
Take over the addresses into the scan list by clicking "insert".
When all stations are inserted, please deactivate "insert scan addresses" ( button "insert" disappears ).

In order to delete a station out of this list select it and click "delete".

yes / no

When this parameter is activated LIAN 98 will send automatically an "activation, execute command" ( COT 6, execute command ) during the master simulation after the receipt of a "activation confirmation, select command" ( COT 7, select command )

This parameter should be deactivated in the router mode because the command execution is managed from the computer of the control center ( client ).
