IEEE C37.118-2005 UDP Mode Not Streaming openPDC TESTSTREAM #4

Closed ajstadlin closed 7 years ago

ajstadlin commented 7 years ago

I was working through a repeatable exercise that demonstrates and tests the openPDC and PMU Connection Tester setup. The exercise is documented here and the step I am referencing is here

To make Latest openPDC Stable Release work with Latest PMU Connection Tester Release, I have to disable the UDP protocol per troubleshooting discussion here. In other words, I could not get it to work as expected with minimal deviation from a clean installation in a repeatable configuration procedure. I tried testing openPDC and PMU Connection Tester on the same machine with Windows Firewall turned Off. I have not yet tried 2 channel testing over a network (enabling both TCP and UDP ports). I figured I need to get it working on the same local machine first. I have not yet tried the openPDC nightly build.

I'm not sure if this is a PMU Connection Tester or an openPDC issue. The reason I suspect that it is an Issue is because the 2-channel TCP/UDP configuration for the openPDC TESTSTREAM is the default configuration - and the openPDC Getting Started documentation shows an explicit example of the PMU Connection Tester with 2 channel configuration here.

I figured it out! The following exercise sets up openPDC on a server and it can stream to 2 PMU Connection Testers. One PMU Tester is the openPDC server itself, and the other is a remote over the network. The Output Stream is configured with 1 TCP command channel and 2 UDP data channels - one for each PMU Connection Tester receiver.
