The ProLinx 103M module works as a master to monitor and control up to 16
slaves using the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol. This protocol is commonly used in
substation applications to communicate protection equipments (for example,
relays) with a master device. The ProLinx 103M module can periodically poll
slaves using Class 1 and Class 2 requests in order to continually update the
configured monitor points to the internal database. A monitor point can also be
updated through events generated by the slave. Each module supports up to
three data sets (referred to as sectors in this manual) per slave address. Each
sector is identified by a distinct common ASDU address.
The ProLinx 103M module can also send commands to the controlled slaves. Up
to 500 commands are supported by the module. The supported commands are:
General Interrogation, Time Synchronization and General Command. When
sending a General Command, the control point uses an internal database data
as the source value for the command.
Several resources are available to assist with the configuration and support of
the ProLinx modules.
Installation, Debug Guides, Protocol Driver documents, and so on are all
available for downloading at www.prosoft-technology.com

Quick Start
Step 1: Configure the Number of Slaves (Sessions)
The IEC 60870-5-103 protocol is a master-slave protocol where the slaves are
typically protection equipments for substations. The 103M module supports a
total 16 slaves (sessions) connected to the module's two application ports.
Note: The actual number of available sessions (slaves) will depend on the total number of
sessions and sectors (configured. The recommended maximum number of sessions is sixteen.
In the example above, the module will only poll sessions 0 to 4. The module
would not poll sessions 5 to 31.
In Step 3, you will configure each session as an actual slave in the network.

Step 2: Configure the Port Communication Parameters
The user should configure the port communication parameters in order to enable
data transfer between the master and the slave(s). The port communication
parameters include baud rate, parity, RTS ON, RTS OFF, and Minimum Delay.
The IEC 60870-5-103 protocol uses two baud rates: 19200 or 9600 kb/s and
even parity.
Refer to the [IEC-870-5-103 Master Port 0] section in the configuration file in
order to configure the communication parameters for the 103M port:
You must also configure the port jumpers to select the correct communication
mode: RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485.

103M ♦ ProLinx Gateway
IEC 60870-5-103 Master
Step 3: Configure the Session (Slave) Poll Parameters
According to the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol, the master cyclically polls data from
the slaves. The data is classified as Class 1 or Class 2. Events belong to Class
1, and analog data to Class 2. The module can request data through Class 1 or
Class 2 requests. Responses to control command and general interrogation
commands are also sent as Class 1 data.
Refer to the [IEC-103 Master Session x] section in the configuration file in order
to configure how each slave will be polled.
These parameters include the Data Link Address, which is the slave address that
identifies each piece of protection equipment in the network. There should be a
unique number for each slave in the network. There are also certain parameters
that pertain to how the Class 1 and Class 2 polls will be used for data transfer.
You must enter the number of sectors for each session using the Sector Count
parameter. The module accepts up to five sectors per session.
Note: Actual number of available sectors per session will depend on the total number of sessions
and sectors configured. The recommended maximum number of sectors is three.

Step 4: Sector (Data Set) Configuration
For each session (slave), you must configure one or more sectors. A sector is a
data set defined by the vendor. Each sector is identified by the Common ASDU
Address parameter in the [IEC-103 Master Session x Sector 0] area in the
configuration. This area also contains some parameters that will affect the
module initialization procedure.
Note: The actual number of available sectors per session will depend on the total number of
sessions and sectors configured. The recommended maximum number of sectors is three.
Repeat this step for each sector used by the application. The module will only
use the sectors configured in the previous step.
Step 5: Monitor Point Configuration (Monitor Direction)
When a slave receives a Class 1 or Class 2 request from the master, it responds
with a message containing data. Each piece of equipment is normally configured
to respond with specific points when it is being polled with a Class 2 request.
During a Class 2 response, the slave may set a control bit (ACD) to inform the
master that there are new events to be transmitted. Then, the master will send a
Class 1 poll to read the events from the slave.

Every time the module responds with a Class 1 or Class 2 poll with these points,
the module will copy the value to the database.
All the points configured in this section are sent from the slave to the master. The
protocol specification refers to this data flow as the Monitor Direction.
Repeat this step for each sector.
Step 6: Command Configuration (Control Direction)
You can also configure the master to send commands to slaves. The IEC 608705-103 protocol specification refers to this data flow as Control Direction. The
commands include general commands, interrogation requests, and time
synchronization requests. In order to configure a command, refer to the [IEC-103
Master Commands] section:

To send a General Command, you can associate the source data with a register
in the module database to be sent to the remote slave. The following example
will send 8 commands to the slave configured as Session 0/Sector 0. Use bit
addressing to send a General Command.
Refer to the device specification for the Point Index (Information Number) listing
available for control direction.
The module can also send a periodic General Interrogation command in order to
initialize and refresh the event-updated points in its database. The slave keeps a
list of all data subject to General Interrogation.
Step 7: Set the module’s Data and Time (optional)
If the module will be sending time synchronization commands to the slave, you
must set the date and time on the module (page 79).
Step 8: Transfer the Configuration from the Computer to the module.

Functional Overview
1.2.1 IEC 60870-5-103 Master Protocol Implementation
The following section describes the flow of data between the 103M module and
the IEC 60870-5-103 Master unit.
Master Driver
The master driver supported on the application port of the module emulates an
IEC 60870-5-103 Master device.
The module communicates with one or more controlled stations on what are
referred to as sessions. A session represents a controlled device with a unique
data link layer address. Each session (controlled device) contains one data set
(sector) that is defined by the vendor of the device.
Note: The IEC 60870-5-103 specification only supports the unbalanced mode. No support is given
in the protocol for the balanced mode and the module does not support this mode.
Initialization
According to the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol, the Master should send a Reset FCB
(or Reset CU) request to all slaves on the network. The ProLinx 103M module
will only send the initialization requests to the Data Link Addresses that are
configured as sessions. Once the slave responds to the FCB request with an
ACK response, the master starts polling the slave. The master will continuously
send the Reset FCB request until it receives the ACK response.
The user may also configure the module to send time synchronization and
general interrogation requests once the slave has responded to the reset FGD
request. Refer to the configuration file for the initialization parameters.
If the slave is not responding to the initialization request, the user should verify
the following items in order to troubleshoot the configuration:
Verify that the slave address (Data Link Address) is configured as a session
(slave) in the module. For example, if the module has two sessions correctly
configured (Data Link Addresses 1 and 2), and the slave is configured with a
Data Link address of 3, the slave will not respond to the initialization request.
Verify that the communication port parameter matches the network
parameters.
Check cables
Verify that the communication mode jumpers (RS-232 or RS-485) are set
correctly.

Introduction
Protocol Manual
103M ♦ ProLinx Gateway
IEC 60870-5-103 Master
Data Transfer in Monitor Direction
The master driver cyclically polls data from the slaves. The data is classified into
two classes; Class 1 and Class 2. Events belong to Class 1 and analog data to
Class 2. The user may configure the module to set how frequently the master will
poll with both classes.
The slave will respond to a Class 2 poll with specific data points. The user can
configure these points in the ProLinx module in order to periodically update the
database with the point values. The other protocol can access these points using
the same database.
Data Transfer in Control Direction
The ProLinx 103M module can be configured to issue commands to the
configured slaves (sessions). The General Command can be used to transfer
data from the module to each slave. The user may associate a control data point
with a register in the internal database using the configuration file. The module
may also send a time synchronization request to the device.
The module supports up to 500 commands. Each command is associated with a
configured session and server. It is essential that the slave is correctly configured
in order to have successful command communication.

Protocol Manual
103M Protocol Configuration
The following is excerpted from a configuration file showing typical examples
used for configuration of the 103M driver. A default configuration file for each
module application that includes the 103M interface card is available for
download from the www.prosoft-technology.com web site. This default
configuration can easily form the basis for a working solution. This file can either
be downloaded from the ProSoft web site at www.prosoft-technology.com, or
transferred from the module.
The configuration file contains the following topics:
[Section]
Description
[IEC-870-5-103 Master]
General configuration for the driver.
[IEC-870-5-103 Master Port n]
Configuration for one of the application ports.
[IEC-103 Master Session x]
Definition of each control unit.
[IEC-103 Master Session x Sector y] Definition for each sector in the controlled unit.
[IEC-103 Master Commands]
Command list to control slave units.
3.6.1 [IEC-103 Master Commands]
This section can contain up to 1000 user defined commands to be executed by
the module and sent to the controlled devices. There is no need to place Class 1
or Class 2 polls in this list for the controlled devices as the master driver for each
port will execute these automatically when the port is idle. In order for the port to
be idle, make sure that there is idle time available, and that the commands do not
constantly utilize the ports.

3.6.5 [IEC-103 Master Session x Sector y]
This section defines Sector z, which belongs to Session y. The Sector Count
parameter (page 38) in the [IEC-870-5-103 Master Session y] section specifies
the number of sectors for the session.
Each sector has a corresponding [IEC-103 Master Session y Sector z] section,
where y represents the session index and z represents the sector index.
The sectors are referenced by a zero-based index value. For example, if Session
0 is configured for four sectors, the configuration file should contain sections for
Sectors 0 to 3 (that is, [IEC-103 Master Session 0 Sector 0] to [IEC-103 Master
Session 0 Sector 3]).

3.6.6 Using the CommonNet Data Map
The Data Map section allows you to copy data between areas in the gateway's
internal database.
You can copy a maximum of 100 registers per Data Map command, and you can
configure a maximum of 200 separate copy commands.
You can copy data from the error or status tables in upper memory to internal
database registers in the User Data memory area.
You can rearrange the byte and/or word order during the copy process. For
example, by rearranging byte or word order, you can convert floating-point values
to the correct format for a different protocol.
You can also use the Data Map to condense widely dispersed data into one
contiguous data block, making it easier to access.

Delay Preset
This parameter sets an interval for each Data Map copy operation. The value you
put for the Delay Preset is not a fixed amount of time. It is the number of firmware
scans that must transpire between copy operations.
The firmware scan cycle can take a variable amount of time, depending on the
level of activity of the protocol drivers running on the ProLinx gateway and the
level of activity on the gateway's communication ports. Each firmware scan can
take from 1 to several milliseconds to complete. Therefore, Data Map copy
operations cannot be expected to happen at regular intervals.
If multiple copy operations (several rows in the Data map section) happen too
frequently or all happen in the same update interval, they could delay the process
scan of the gateway protocols, which could result in slow data updates or missed
data on communication ports. To avoid these potential problems, you should set
the Delay Preset to different values for each row in the Data Map section and set
them to higher, rather than lower, numbers.
For example, Delay Preset values below 1000 could begin to cause a noticeable
delay in data updates through the communication ports. And you should not set
all Delay Presets to the same value. Instead, use different values for each row in
the Data Map such as 1000, 1001, and 1002 or any other different Delay Preset
values you like. This will prevent the copies from happening concurrently and
prevent possible process scan delays.

103M Driver Error and Status Data
The second and most thorough troubleshooting method for debugging the
operation of the 103M driver (and the module in general) is the powerful Debug
port on the module which provides much more complete access to the internal
operation and status of the module. Accessing the Debug capabilities of the
module can be accomplished by connecting a PC to the Debug port using
HyperTerminal or some other terminal emulation program.
6.1.1 Slave Error and Status
The 103M Driver Error and Status Data areas are discussed in this section. This
data represents a collection of status, diagnostic and troubleshooting registers
which may prove helpful in troubleshooting the 103M network and port operation.
The data map functionality of the module must be utilized in order to map this
data into the normal module database region (0 to 3999). All or any portion of the
data can be moved using this facility.
The data area is initialized with zeros whenever the module is initialized. This
occurs during a cold-start (power-on), reset (reset push-button pressed) or a
warm-boot operation (commanded or loading of new configuration).
In order to read the sector area into the module database, refer to the Remap
section in the configuration file in order to remap the sector area from address
14000 to any address in the database.
Note: All commands should be mapped separately and not grouped together

Setting the Module's Date and Time
This section describes how to set the module’s date and time. The module does
not support a dynamic date and time configuration, therefore, date and time
information must be entered manually.
The protocol uses time and date information to exchange events. The Master
may also send periodic time synchronization requests to the slave. It is important
to ensure that the Master is using the correct date and time information.
Assuming that the Debug port is connected to an ASCII terminal, perform the
following steps to set the module’s date and time:
1 Press the RESET button located on the front of the ProLinx module.
2 While the module is loading, press and hold down the [L] key.

IEC 60870-5-103 Master Protocol Interoperability Documentation
This companion standard presents sets of parameters and alternatives from
which subsets have to be selected to implement particular telecontrol systems.
Certain parameter values, such as the number of octets in the COMMON
ADDRESS of ASDUs represent mutually exclusive alternatives. This means that
only one value of the defined parameters is admitted per system. Other
parameters, such as the listed set of different process information in command
and in monitor direction allow the specification of the complete set or subsets, as
appropriate for given applications. This clause summarizes the parameters of the
previous clauses to facilitate a suitable selection for a specific application. If a
system is composed of equipment stemming from different manufacturers it is
necessary that all partners agree on the selected parameters.
Note: In addition, the full specification of a system may require individual selection of certain
parameters for certain parts of the system, such as the individual selection of scaling factors for
individually addressable measured values.
The selected parameters should be marked in the white boxes as follows:
Function or ASDU is not used
⌧
Function or ASDU is used as standardized (default)
R
Function or ASDU is used in reverse mode
B
Function or ASDU is used in standard and reverse mode
The possible selection (blank, X, R, B) is specified for each specific clause or
parameter.
A black check box indicates that the option cannot be selected in this companion
standard.

Frequently Asked Questions
This section provides answers frequently asked questions about the ProLinx
103M module.
6.6.1 Why is the module not communicating with the slave?
First, ensure that the slave Data Link Address is configured as a slave (session)
in the configuration file. The module will only try to initialize slaves identified by
Data Link Addresses that are currently configured as sessions. Refer to technical
specification for your protection equipment for its Data Link Address. You should
also check to see if the common ASDU address is configured as a sector in the
module. Make sure all port communication parameters match the slave
parameters (baud rate, parity, and so on). Finally, look at the cables and ensure
that the correct communication mode is set (RS-232 or RS-495).
6.6.2 The slave is responding but I cannot see the monitor data in
the Module database.
Ensure that the monitor points are correctly configured. Refer to your protection
equipment’s documentation for the correct ASDU type, Function Code, and
Information Number. These values must match the parameters that are entered
for every monitor point in the [IEC-103 Master Session 0] section of the
configuration file.
The addressing type in the module database depends on the point ASDU type.
The Database Index parameter can be interpreted as bit, byte, word, or doubleword address. For more details, refer to Data Types and Mapping.

The following Return Material Authorization (RMA) Policies and Conditions
(collectively, "RMA Policies") apply to any returned product. These RMA Policies
are subject to change by ProSoft Technology, Inc., without notice. For warranty
information, see Limited Warranty (page 107). In the event of any inconsistency
between the RMA Policies and the Warranty, the Warranty shall govern.
7.1.1 Returning Any Product
a) In order to return a Product for repair, exchange, or otherwise, the
Customer must obtain a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number
from ProSoft Technology and comply with ProSoft Technology shipping
instructions.
b) In the event that the Customer experiences a problem with the Product for
any reason, Customer should contact ProSoft Technical Support at one of
the telephone numbers listed above (page 103). A Technical Support
Engineer will request that you perform several tests in an attempt to
isolate the problem. If after completing these tests, the Product is found to
be the source of the problem, we will issue an RMA.
c) All returned Products must be shipped freight prepaid, in the original
shipping container or equivalent, to the location specified by ProSoft
Technology, and be accompanied by proof of purchase and receipt date.
The RMA number is to be prominently marked on the outside of the
shipping box. Customer agrees to insure the Product or assume the risk
of loss or damage in transit. Products shipped to ProSoft Technology
using a shipment method other than that specified by ProSoft Technology,
or shipped without an RMA number will be returned to the Customer,
freight collect. Contact ProSoft Technical Support for further information.
d) A 10% restocking fee applies to all warranty credit returns, whereby a
Customer has an application change, ordered too many, does not need,
etc. Returns for credit require that all accessory parts included in the
original box (i.e.; antennas, cables) be returned. Failure to return these
items will result in a deduction from the total credit due for each missing
item.

LIMITED WARRANTY
This Limited Warranty ("Warranty") governs all sales of hardware, software, and
other products (collectively, "Product") manufactured and/or offered for sale by
ProSoft Technology, Incorporated (ProSoft), and all related services provided by
ProSoft, including maintenance, repair, warranty exchange, and service
programs (collectively, "Services"). By purchasing or using the Product or
Services, the individual or entity purchasing or using the Product or Services
("Customer") agrees to all of the terms and provisions (collectively, the "Terms")
of this Limited Warranty. All sales of software or other intellectual property are, in
addition, subject to any license agreement accompanying such software or other
intellectual property.
7.2.1 What Is Covered By This Warranty
a) Warranty On New Products: ProSoft warrants, to the original purchaser,
that the Product that is the subject of the sale will (1) conform to and
perform in accordance with published specifications prepared, approved
and issued by ProSoft, and (2) will be free from defects in material or
workmanship; provided these warranties only cover Product that is sold as
new. This Warranty expires three (3) years from the date of shipment for
Product purchased on or after January 1st, 2008, or one (1) year from the
date of shipment for Product purchased before January 1st, 2008 (the
"Warranty Period"). If the Customer discovers within the Warranty Period
a failure of the Product to conform to specifications, or a defect in material
or workmanship of the Product, the Customer must promptly notify
ProSoft by fax, email or telephone. In no event may that notification be
received by ProSoft later than 39 months from date of original shipment.
Within a reasonable time after notification, ProSoft will correct any failure
of the Product to conform to specifications or any defect in material or
workmanship of the Product, with either new or remanufactured
replacement parts. ProSoft reserves the right, and at its sole discretion,
may replace unrepairable units with new or remanufactured equipment.
All replacement units will be covered under warranty for the 3 year period
commencing from the date of original equipment purchase, not the date of
shipment of the replacement unit. Such repair, including both parts and
labor, will be performed at ProSoft’s expense. All warranty service will be
performed at service centers designated by ProSoft.
b) Warranty On Services: Materials and labor performed by ProSoft to repair
a verified malfunction or defect are warranteed in the terms specified
above for new Product, provided said warranty will be for the period
remaining on the original new equipment warranty or, if the original
warranty is no longer in effect, for a period of 90 days from the date of
repair.
