Summary
IEC 60870-5 is an international standard that defines communication protocols for telecontrol systems used in electrical power systems and other industrial automation environments. It focuses on reliable, real-time exchange of data between control centers and remote terminal units (RTUs), protection devices, and other field equipment.

IEC 60870-5 Client
An IEC 60870-5 Client is a communication component in a SCADA or automation system that initiates and manages data exchange with remote devices using the IEC 60870-5 telecontrol protocol IEC 60870-5-104 (TCP/IP). Note: IEC 60870-5-101 (serial) is not currently supported.
IEC 60870-5 Client general
This section displays IEC 60870-5 Client status information and allows to enable/disable the service.
| Field | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Enabled | off | on; default: on | Enable/disable IEC 60870-5 client service. |
| Status | Status of service, whether it is currently running. If it is active, it will also show how long it has been running. |
IEC 60870-5 Clients
By default, the client list is empty. To add a new client, click the 'Add' button.
After clicking 'Add' you will be redirected to the newly added client's configuration page.
General settings
| Field | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Enabled | off | on; default: on | Check to enable this configuration. |
| Name | string; default: Client 1 | Name of the client. Used for easier device management purposes only. |
| Period | integer [1..86400]; default: 60 | Interval in seconds for sending requests to server. |
| Originator address | integer [0..100]; default: 1 | Address used to identify the source of the request within the IEC 60870-5 system. |

IEC 60870-5 Server
An IEC 60870-5 Server is a communication component implemented in field devices—such as RTUs, substations, protection relays, and data concentrators—that responds to requests from an IEC 60870-5 Client and provides real-time data, events, and control interfaces. It implements the server-side (outstation) role defined by the IEC 60870-5 telecontrol standards, including IEC 60870-5-101 for serial communication and IEC 60870-5-104 for TCP/IP networks.
