2. Introduction
This document is especially designed for the IEC61850 and IEC 60870-5-104
protocol using the REG-PE device. It is describing the primal, initial Configuration of
the REG-PE telecontrol device. The configuration is done by setting up the desired
IP-addresses.
There are 2 REG-PE versions available: for internal use in REG-DA and for external
use in a 19 rack. Please have a look in the fitting section according to the version
you got.

3. Operating in Boot Loader Mode

3.1 Load of Firmware
3.1.1 REG-PE version for 19 racks
At the front plate, the REG-PE device has a DSUB-9 connector labeled PARAM.
Connect it to a COM interface of your PC using a null modem cable as explained in
section 3.1.2. Now you can control the boot loader (PPCBoot). PPCBoot stays active
for 5 seconds since resetting device (you can reset the REG-PE if you press the red
reset button on REG-PE). Afterwards, it will automatically restart the operating
system and the application (as far as loaded). Connect a terminal program with the
following settings, to control PPCBoot

Baud:
Bit:
Parity:
Stop:

115200
8
none
1

If any key on PC keyboard is pressed in the first 5 seconds after entering boot mode
of REG-PE, PPCBoot will stay active.
Please enter the following if you want to enter the IP-address 192.168.1.1:
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
saveenv
Then reset ( press red REG-PE reset button) the REG-PE and you can start working
with it.

3.1.2 REG-PE version for REG-DA

Please open the door of the REG-DA and connect to COM1 of REG-PE.
Note: The REG-PE comes with all firmware for IEC operation pre loaded, only
the IP address is required to be set up.
1. Make up a lead:

3. Connect this lead via a null modem cable to a PC COM port

4. Start a terminal session (i.e Hyperterminal) using the settings>

5.Note at this stage you will still be unable to talk with the REG-DA
6. Place REG-DA in boot mode with menu Setup 6 F5 F1 depressed for 5
seconds or just restart the REG-DA ( restart means just power OFF and ON REGDA).
Please note, the loader mode with menu Setup 6 F5 F1 depressed for 5
seconds is only necessary to reset the internal REG-PE, the internal version got no
separate reset button. After REG-DA has been switched on one time in the loader
mode the REG-PE is in the reset mode. REG-PE is then able for IP address setting
via terminal program. Please press reset button F4 in REG-DA loader mode to
continue normal voltage regulator mode on REG-DA again.

The screen will look like the following example:
PPCBoot 1.2.0 (Oct 29 2004 - 15:38:39)
CPU: XPC860xxZPnnD4 at 50 MHz: 16 kB I-Cache 8 kB D-Cache FEC present
Watchdog enabled
Board: ### No HW ID - assuming TQM8xxL
DRAM: 64 MB
FLASH: 8 MB
In: serial
Out: serial
Err: serial
PCMCIA: No Card found
Net: FEC ETHERNET [PRIME]
Type "run flash_nfs" to mount root filesystem over NFS
Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0
=>
8. You are now in the PPCBoot mode.
9. To set the IP address Enter "setenv ipaddr ???.???.???.???" and hit enter.
10 If a gateway is required then enter "setenv gatewayip ???.???.???.???" and hit
enter. If a netmask is required then enter "setenv netmask ???.???.???.???" and hit
enter.
11. To save the new IP address and gateway enter "saveenv" and hit enter.
Example:
=> setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.64
=> setenv netmask 255.255.0.0
=> saveenv
12. Reset the REG-DA by pressing F4 or restart the REG-DA. From here you will be
