MMS server simulator

Built-in IEC 61850 Edition 2.1 server (Class A/B). Load SCD, pick an IED, edit variable values, attach signal generators to any MX value. Conformance-test ready against UNIGRID SA. Waveforms: sine, triangle, sawtooth, square, ramp and random. Quality and timestamp are maintained automatically.

03

GOOSE & Sampled Values

The separate JCH GOOSE Bridge (standalone, free) handles the Layer-2 frame work (libpcap). Studio connects over WebSocket — Subscribe + Publish for GOOSE and SV.

04

SCL editor

Substations, Voltage Levels, Bays, IEDs, LDevices, LNs, DataSets, RCBs, GoCBs, Inputs. Export as SCD/ICD/IID/CID/SED. Three built-in demo projects for training and conformance testing. ConductingEquipment.

05

Spec-compliant SCL export

xsi:schemaLocation, RptEnabled, correct P-element ordering, transitive DataTypeTemplates closure. Compatible with Phoenix Engineer, Siemens DIGSI, ABB PCM600, openSCD.

06
