IEC 61850 · protocol analyser

HolonStationTrace 61850

In development

Capture and decode MMS, GOOSE and Sampled Values with the SCD as context. See which IED sent each frame, spot gaps in sequences and check timing at a glance.

Planned features

What this tool is being built to do. Features may change before the first release.

  • Live or from file

    Capture from a network interface or open pcap and pcapng files from any other tool.

  • Decoding with context

    Decode MMS, GOOSE and Sampled Values and name every value using the data sets in the SCD.

  • Know the publisher

    Match each GOOSE and SV stream to its IED, APPID and control block.

  • Sequences and timing

    Follow stNum and sqNum, detect lost or repeated messages and check time allowed to live.

  • Timeline and filters

    Line up events from several IEDs on one timeline and filter by IED, data set or value.

  • Exports

    Save filtered captures and event lists to share with colleagues or vendors.

Where it helps

  • GOOSE troubleshooting

    Find out why a subscription does not trip or arrives late.

  • Process bus checks

    Verify Sampled Values streams and their rates during commissioning.

  • Post-event analysis

    Reconstruct what happened on the network around a fault or a maloperation.
