Getting started with
COM in powerconfig
Quick start guide
The COM PROFINET IO / Modbus TCP module adds a new level of high speed, secure
communications to the WL Breaker product family. The functionality and data structure of the
COM is based on the COM/COM module and is compatible with all WL with CubicleBUS
support. The COM is therefore suitable for the modernization and expansions of plants as well.
By utilizing Siemens powerconfig software, the COM can be quickly configured for use. Once
configured, the COM is the gateway to the breaker itself and can be used locally or remotely to
configure trip unit parameters, downloading metering data, event logs, and waveforms using the
powerconfig software. The latest version of powerconfig software is always available here:
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/de/view/ Please note that you will need to
register to download.
Powerconfig can be used without the need for a network hub or switch to configure the
parameters for one breaker on a : basis. It can also be used across a network to check breaker
status or change breaker parameters. Powerconfig is not a replacement for a SCADA or energy
monitoring system such as WinPM.net but rather a compliment to it. Powerconfig can be used to
check breaker data while the other systems go about their business over the network. It can be
used on a network with Modbus TCP and PROFINET IO traffic simultaneously.
Introduction
powerconfig | Quick Start Guide
First: Make sure the "Write Enable" jumper is in place (between terminals and ) so that parameters can be written.
To configure your COM, you can either connect to it directly to your computer or connect it to a network to which your computer
is connected.
If you connect directly, you will need to make sure Windows Defender Firewall allows UDP Port . The process for doing this is
in an appendix at the end of this guide.
To set the IP address of the COM, connect your COM to your network or to the Ethernet port on your computer. Open power-
config with a new project.
Search for accessible devices:
Select the network adapter connected to the network to which your COM is connected then click search:
After the device is found, click on the locked slider to unlock the device so that the parameters can be changed.

Enter the desired IP address, netmask and gateway required for your network. When entering IP addresses, do not type the ".", it
will be added automatically after typing digits. If only one digit is required, use the right arrow key to move to the next octet.
Click the Load to device button:
The IP addresses will be written to the COM.
To verify that the device is now accessible on the network, open a command window and use the ping command:
Click on the Create devices button and the newly configured COM will be added to the powerconfig project:

The device name in this case would be WL ....
If there are multiple devices on the network and you need help identifying the one to which you are connected, click the blink button:
After the Blinking dialog opens, click the Start Blinking button.
The PN and TCP LEDs on the device will alternate flashing on and off. When finished, click on Stop Blinking (which will also be blinking).
Close the Search for Accessible Devices dialog.
If the COM is connected to a WL breaker and trip unit, parameters will be loaded into powerconfig.
Click the Go Online button to access live data from the breaker.

Prerequisite: The COM module is connected to a network, has an IP address and can be communicated with.
Once a COM has been given an IP address and can be communicated with, the first step is to load the COM parameters to the
PC. Click on the Load to PC button and the breaker and communication parameters will be loaded into powerconfig.
The screen will have the connected breaker information on it:
Scroll down until Configurable I/O module is visible. The currently configured state of the Com digital input and Com digital output
will be shown.

In this configuration, the status of the "Free" or user-configurable input (terminals and ) can be queried via communication but
controls nothing.
To configure the input to change the active parameter set, select DAS from the drop down (there are only two choices).
In the default configuration, the “Free” or user-configurable output can be opened and closed via communication. It can also be
configured to act as an additional Bell Alarm (closed when the trip unit has tripped the breaker and staying closed until the tripped
state is reset via the CLEAR button on the trip unit or via communications). For DAS applications, it can be configured to close to
indicate that the trip unit is using Parameter Set B as its active parameter set (B is normally configured as the DAS or Maintenance
parameter set).
When set to be the DAS activation input and indication output, the parameters should be set as shown:
Once set, the parameters must be loaded back to the COM to take effect.
When utilizing the COM as the DAS activation input and status indication output by performing this configuration, it is important
to understand two important points:
) Parameter Set B (DAS or Maintenance Mode parameters) are selected when the DAS ON/OFF contact is OPEN and
Parameter Set A is selected when the contact is CLOSED.
Switch contact shown in normal operating (Parameter Set A) mode.

) Once configured to switch parameter sets in DAS mode, the COM has sole control over the active parameter set. Manual
attempts to change from A to B (when in A) or B to A (when in B) will be reversed by the COM within seconds. This
includes attempts made from the front panel of the trip unit or remote selection via communications.
The input and output can be configured separately. If DAS ON/OFF changes will only be mode remotely via communications, the
Com Digital Input can be left in the User Input state, allowing local indication but remote mode switching.
The setting of the input and output can be changed via a Modbus TCP command over the network when the Write Enable jumper
is in place (terminals and ). These packets are in Data Set and are documented in the COM Communications Manual.

Different networks/companies have different rules regarding opening ports, but the process of enabling this port is as follows:
. From the Start menu, open Settings.
. Using the search box, find Firewall, then open Windows Defender Firewall.
. Click on Advanced Settings, click on Inbound rules.
. If powerconfig installed correctly, there should be an entry like this:
. Right click on Inbound Rules and click on New Rule:
. Select Program and Browse to the location of powerconfig and select this file:
Click Open and Next. Chose Allow the connection and click Next.
. Make sure the Domain, Private and Public boxes are checked and click Next. Name the rule powerconfig. In the
description, type "Allow UDP port for COM discovery" and click Finish.
. Double click on the rule and a box of settings will open up, click on the Protocols and Ports tab. Select UDP
under Protocol type and Specific Ports. Enter under that pull-down:

Click OK and close all the dialogs.
To configure the COM connected directly to your computer, you will need to configure an Ethernet port with a static IP
address for the duration of the process. Most computers get their IP addresses from a central router via DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol).
) Open Settings, Network and Internet then Change Adapter Settings
) Select your Ethernet adapter, right click and select Properties:
