IEC 61850 MMS client · live IED browser · Windows

Browse the live IEC 61850 server model directly from the IED.

ARSAS connects to an approved IEC 61850 endpoint over MMS, discovers the live model and keeps values, quality, timestamps, DataSets, Report Control Blocks, controls and diagnostics inside the same per-IED engineering session.

Practical workflow

From an approved IP address to searchable live evidence.

Expose useful protocol evidence without reconstructing the same context across several disconnected applications.

01

Add the IED endpoint

Establish an independent MMS association and keep service failures attributable to the originating device.

02

Discover the server model

Enumerate the logical hierarchy and live type information required for values, reports and supported controls.

03

Search and select signals

Filter large models and select the exact points required for FAT, SAT, commissioning or troubleshooting.

04

Observe attributable values

Retain quality, timestamps, recent-change evidence and the verified acquisition source.

Real application evidence

One model browser, one live-value workspace, one IED context.

Inspect current device behavior rather than relying only on a static engineering-file tree.

ARSAS IEC 61850 MMS live values with quality and timestamps

02Searchable live values

Review device, quality, timestamp, source and change context together.

Useful for

FAT, SAT, commissioning and protocol troubleshooting

  • Confirm that the IED accepts an MMS association
  • Compare live object availability with available SCL files
  • Find DataSets and Report Control Blocks before reporting tests
  • Inspect ctlModel before control tests
  • Separate model, service and communication problems
Engineering boundary

An MMS connection is not proof of complete interoperability.

A successful association does not prove that reporting, controls, file services, GOOSE binding or every modeled object is correct. ARSAS keeps those validations explicit and does not claim conformance certification.

Next workflow

Move from discovery to report-based monitoring.

Inspect DataSet coverage, BRCB and URCB ownership, trigger options and fallback behavior.

Related capability

Compare live behavior with SCL context.

Keep configured intent and the current device model visible together.
