ARSVIN Documentation

ARSVIN is a focused IEC 61850 Sampled Values engineering suite for Windows. It includes ARSVIN Publisher for stream generation and ArSubsv Subscriber for live/PCAP reception, decoding, visualization, and receiver-side evidence.

Start here

• Quick Start — install the suite, choose Publisher or Subscriber, and begin with a safe workflow.
• Safety Boundaries — laboratory assumptions and responsible use.
• Known Limitations — current protocol and runtime boundaries.

Sampled Values standards and interoperability

• SV Standards and Evidence Research Gate — authoritative source hierarchy, claim levels, evidence requirements, and research acceptance rules.
• SV Conformance and Interoperability Matrix — verified, provisional, unknown, and out-of-scope requirements for 9-2LE-style, IEC 61869-9, and generic Layer-2 SV.
• SV Profile Infrastructure — transport-independent observed facts, evidence-aware definitions, confidence detection, and configuration-versus-wire comparison.
• Profile Detection Output Contract — compact confidence, evidence, and mismatch presentation rules.
• Public Terminology Policy — neutral public wording and automated validation.
• samples/sv-evidence — safe evidence intake, anonymization rules, metadata, and minimum regression cases for real merging-unit captures.

Publisher workflows

• SV Profile Support — current IEC 61850 SV publishing support and limits.
• Multi-Stream SV Publishing — using multiple publisher slots.
• Publisher Session Engine — runtime session model.
• Live Preflight Diagnostics — preflight checks before live TX.
• P0 Publisher Protocol Roadmap — nofASDU, quality, timing, and PCAP foundation.
• P1 Publisher Evidence Workflow — generated PCAP and Markdown evidence export.
• P2 Full Publisher Scenario Engine — repeatable protection and process-bus scenarios.
• Waveform Shape Panel — per-phase and waveform-shaped publisher scenarios.

Subscriber workflows

• Subscriber Verification App — receiver-side stream binding, validation, health, and evidence.
• ArSubsv SV Scout Companion — discovery, waveform, phasor, RMS, and PCAP analysis.

Data sources and timing

• COMTRADE Replay — replaying analog records as Sampled Values.
• PTP and smpSynch Compatibility — timing and synchronization boundaries.
• Sync Compatibility Mode — laboratory smpSynch behavior.
