IEC 60870-5-104 SCADA Communication Testing for Railway Control
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard IEC 60870-5-104 is a critical protocol used in Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. This standard defines the communication protocols between remote terminal units (RTUs), data concentrators, and computers within railway signaling and control systems.
The primary purpose of this test is to ensure that all communication devices function correctly according to IEC 60870-5-104 standards. Railways require highly reliable and secure communication channels between various components such as trackside equipment, dispatch centers, and train management systems. Any failure in these communications could lead to safety hazards or operational disruptions.
The test process involves simulating real-world conditions that the SCADA system might encounter during operation. This includes testing message integrity, error handling capabilities, and response times under various load scenarios. The test ensures that all components adhere strictly to IEC 60870-5-104 protocols.
During testing, we use state-of-the-art equipment capable of emulating different types of communication channels. This allows us to assess how well the system performs across various network environments, including wired and wireless configurations.
