 3.1) Object Properties (1)
Basic Concept : Object
1) Belong to a HIERARCHY
Site (Electric) Main hierarchy containing electric process
SCS Main hierarchy containing system description (mappings)
Graphic Main hierarchy containing OI & C264 views + users/rights

Has 1 father Has Sons called COMPONENTS

GSE
L1 - 08-DS Agile SCE Overview Rev G - P 16
 3.1) Object Properties (2)

2) IS a structured data
Attributes Field with field name, Type, range…
Properties on attributes or on relation with other object

GSE
L1 - 08-DS Agile SCE Overview Rev G - P 17
 3.1) Object Properties (3)

3) HAS Relations
Implicit (Hierarchy : father/son)
Hidden or protected (user level)
Explicit and customisable

GSE
L1 - 08-DS Agile SCE Overview Rev G - P 18
 3.2) Data Hierarchies

1) Site (Electric)
contains real time data called datapoint
Voltage Level / Bay / Module / Datapoint

2) SCS (System)
contains mappings
networks, wiring, SBUS equipment
datapoint profiles
acquisition and processing behaviour

3) Graphic Part
contains OI graphical views
contains MiCOM computers front views
contains user rights definition
GSE
L1 - 08-DS Agile SCE Overview Rev G - P 19
 3.3) Relations between objects

What is a relation?
Connection between 2 objects belonging to 2 different hierarchies
Digital Information with a board / channel wiring
Bay with controlling computer
Datapoint with datapoint profile

Configure a relation
mandatory
automatically attached to object (to be completed)
configurable
directly, Relation Editor

 4.1) Template Features

Templates : What for?

Ease configuration process using the following concepts :
Data modelling
IED, Switchgear, Transformer, C264, Graphic, …
Attributes protection
fix a value for object attributes w/out changing possibility
Automatic retrofit of correction in instances
make correction at template level, correction will be retrofitted in all
instances
Use of libraries
Electric, System, Graphic

GSE
L1 - 08-DS Agile SCE Overview Rev G - P 22
 4.2) DS Agile SCE Templates Concept

Basic Concept : Templates

MODEL Evolution

Instantiation
Degree Of Freedom e.g. Name
Template Link Automatic
Parameter e.g. Colour

CB1
CB2 CB1
CB3 CB2
CB3

N instances = N duplicates fixed Attributes

= duplicates + DOF
= duplicates + DOF + Automatic colour GSE

GSE
L1 - 08-DS Agile SCE Overview Rev G - P 24
 4.4) Templates Definition

Template :
For one Application case, it is User Definition of objects set
=> over several hierarchies
is a model Electric : List of points
1 Template links
SCS : IED mapping
Object as instance of Template
is a copy of template structure in object hierarchy
(with template attributes)
BUT
no structure change allowed
no attribute change except explicit template DOF

Template is Definition => If template change all instances change

GSE

 4.5) Template Instance

1) Selected Template 3) Selected Instance

2) View All Instance

4) Reach

 DS Agile SCE Key Concepts

1) 3 Purposes of SCE
DB Generation for devices
Data Consistency
Configuration Editor
2) 3 Basic Hierarchies of SCE
Site Real Time DataPoints
SCS Mappings
Graphic Interfaces for operator
3) 2 Database parts into the SCE
Object DB
Templates DB
4) Database versioning by SCE
VdBS : WORK versions -> versioned Data Base
-> generate versioned Data Bag
