StationGen · IED Configuration

One substation. The right signal list for every device.

Configure voltage levels, bays and devices in one interface. StationGen turns your Excel type files into project-specific signal lists, ready for the next steps in engineering.

In your engineering workflow

From substation structure to an IEC 61850 system description.

StationGen prepares the signal lists for each device. The SCL Generator then processes these lists into IID and SCD files for your IEC 61850 engineering workflow.

  1. 01 / Input

    Excel type files

    Existing device types supply the signals, options and placeholders.

  2. 02 / Configuration

    StationGen

    Build the substation, configure its devices and validate the project data.

  3. 03 / Output

    Signal lists per IED

    A separate Excel file for every active device, filled with its project-specific values.

  4. 04 / Next step

    SCL Generator

    Convert the prepared lists into IEC 61850 descriptions.

01 · Configure devices

A wizard that fits your substation.

Location, device type, network, options and placeholders: the device wizard guides you through configuration. The customer profile limits the type selection to those permitted at the chosen location.

  • Build device names from the substation, voltage level, bay and equipment ID.
  • Fill automatic placeholders from the device location and add individual values.
  • Set shared options for the substation and adjust them for individual devices.

02 · Reuse standards

Your device types. Your rules.

Create a customer profile from your existing type folder. Define the permitted voltage levels, bay names and values for each device type.

  • Edit customer rules directly in the application.
  • Reuse type files and profiles across projects.
  • Search, filter and edit several devices together.

03 · Validate and generate

Find inconsistencies. Generate signal lists.

Project validation reports issues such as duplicate IP addresses, inconsistent network settings, missing type files and violations of profile rules. “Fix” takes you directly to the field that needs attention.

  • Generate signal lists for all active devices in one run.
  • Follow progress and view the result for each device.
  • Compare generated files cell by cell against a reference folder.

Bring your Excel data

Import device lists or copy rows between Excel and StationGen.

Undo changes

Use undo and redo when making individual or extensive adjustments.

Keep the project together

Save the substation configuration in a project file and reopen it later.

Fit your working day
