THIS WEBINAR HAS CONCLUDED
This webinar did a deep dive on the ICTv2. We explained the differences and improvements over the previous IED Configuration Tool, walked through the typical workflow for GOOSE and MMS configuration, and went through a practical demonstration via software screenshare so you can see how the new tools works. Participants had the opportunity for a live Q&A with presenters.
Note: This webinar does not include a detailed introduction to electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation or real-time operation. To learn more about these topics, listeners should watch this short video before joining.

Webinar description
Join RTDS Technologies for a free webinar focused on the RTDS Simulator's new IED Configuration Tool. The RTDS Simulator - the world standard in real-time power system simulation - has long included support for IEC 61850 protocols, enabling power system engineers to test protective relays via GOOSE Messaging, MMS, and Sampled Values. De-risking digital substations before deployment via hardware-in-the-loop testing ensures reliable, secure operation and improved performance.
Recently, as part of the release of the RSCAD FX 2.7 software, RTDS Technologies introduced a new version of the IED Configuration Tool - ICTv2 - which significantly improves the experience for users using IEC 61850 GOOSE and MMS protocols to perform hardware-in-the-loop testing of protection, automation, and control in the digital substation environment. Use of this built-in tool is required for configuration of simulated IEC 61850-compliant IEDs as well as devices under test, so its new capabilities, features, and ease of use are important to protection and automation engineers.
