Protection System Simulator SIM600 1MRS756102 Installation Manual SIM600 Editor and its logical symbols are in some parts in compliance with the IEC 61131–3 standard. Knowledge of the standard is an advantage when you work with the editor and design the logic.
The following is a list of terms associated with SIM600 that you should be familiar with. The list contains terms that are unique to ABB or have a usage or definition that is dif- ferent from standard industry usage. See also 1.8, Abbreviations...

Figure 2.1-2 SIM600 connected to a PC and an IED SIM600 Editor is used for creating the configuration for Protection System Simulator SIM600. The editor is not mandatory for the operation of the simulator, if the required configuration is already available.
SIM600 Editor SIM600 Editor is used for configuring Protection System Simulator SIM600 for the required task. SIM600 Editor is not mandatory for the operation of SIM600, if the required configuration is already available. SIM600 Editor has two views, the GUI Editor and the IO Editor view.
SIM600. The workspace of IO Editor contains a list of input and output signals of SIM600. The IO Tools window on the right of IO Editor view contains logic symbols. Logic symbols are used in the same way as the objects in GUI Editor, that is, they can be added to the workspace as required.
1. Insert the installation CD to your PC. 2. Copy the PRS.exe and PRSEditor.exe files from the CD to the hard disk of your PC. If you want to install only SIM600 Editor or SIM600 Runtime, copy the appropriate file to your PC.

PC and then connect it again. If you need to install the drivers again, you can uninstall the existing drivers, see 6.1, Unin- stalling SIM600 , or connect SIM600 to a new USB port on the PC and then install the drivers.
IED. Each cable has three sets of plugs: • four 3-pin plugs (X1 to X4) or digital outputs (DO) that transfer signals from SIM600 to the IED • two 4-pin plugs (X5 and X6) or digital inputs (DI) that transfer signals from the IED...

The digital I/O requires an IED with a low-voltage power supply (48 Vdc) to ensure proper function. The digital outputs of SIM600 output a maximum of 48 Vdc when in a logical 1 (TRUE) state. The digital inputs of SIM600 are optically isolated and accept a maximum of 60 Vdc.
Figure 4.2-2 Analogue output connectors Analog mA outputs SIM600 is equipped with two constant current outputs, that can be set in the range of 0- 25 mA. The outputs are labeled “DCO1” and “DCO2” in SIM600 Editor. The constant current outputs can be used for simulation of thermal measurements.

Configuring the connectors Binary I/O connectors The binary I/O connectors are represented in the IO Editor by components labelled REL and DI. The 16 REL components correspond to the digital output connectors that transfer data to the IED, see Table 4.3-1.

When the IED outputs a signal, the states of these components switch. Trip Circuit Supervision simulation is achieved with the TCS objects in SIM600 Editor. The fault simulation is activated by applying a logical 1 (TRUE) signal to the TCS object input.
