FOREWORD
INTRODUCTION
1. Scope and object
2. Reference documents
3. Definitions of technical terms
4. Basic communication structures and protocol models
5. Data communication principles
6. Introduction to IEC 870-5 and IEC 870-6
Applies to telecontrol equipment and systems with coded bit serial data transmission for monitoring and control of geographically widespread processes. It is intended as a brief tutorial on transmission techniques, equipment and protocols in view of their use in telecontrol systems. It is thus intended as a guide to orient those using the standards defined in the series of IEC 870-5 and 870-6. More precisely, it gives a frame of reference for evaluating solutions as well as defining and describing the key technical terms. Terms that are defined in IEC 50(371) and 870-1-3 are complemented by further definitions in this report.
