HolonStationTrace 104

In development

Capture and decode IEC 104 traffic with the point list as context. Check the health of the link, find missing points and measure how fast commands are answered.

Planned features

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

  • Live or from file

    Capture on port 2404 or configured ports, or open pcap and pcapng files, with rotating files for long captures.

  • Decoding with context

    I, S and U frames and every ASDU decoded, with each IOA named from the Blueprint 104 point list.

  • Link health

    Check N(S) and N(R), the k and w windows and the t1, t2 and t3 timers against the configured values.

  • Interrogation completeness

    See which expected points never arrived after a general interrogation, and which arrived unexpected.

  • Response times

    Measure the time from command to confirmation and termination to check gateway performance.

  • Exports

    Save filtered captures, event lists and completeness reports.

Where it helps

  • Link troubleshooting

    Find out why the control centre drops the connection or misses data.

  • Acceptance of the 104 link

    Prove that every point arrives with the right type and quality.

  • Gateway performance

    Measure response times under realistic load.
