Hammer Features 

Report Inspection: Each report received by the client is displayed separately to allow for straight forward 

data verification. (Report Inspection is also available for GOOSE messages and Log entries.) 

Verify Reporting: 

Perform data verification 

by comparing the general 

interrogation report with a 

simple mouse click. 

Manipulating Reports: 

Change the individual 

attributes of the Report 

Control Block Manually. 

Enable reports with 

the click of a mouse. 

Change or set the 

active DataSet in one step 

Data Monitor: See real time data from Reports, GOOSE Messages, and polled objects. Unlike the Inspection window this 

view allows real time updates of the data. 

What’s in your Object Model? The Flat View Pane displays the entire object model or a subset of the model based on 

which filters are chosen. For example, to find all measurands simply check “MX”.

Anvil 

The Anvil is a part of Triangle MicroWorks 61850 Test Suite. It provides an IEC 61850 Test Server in order 

to exercise IEC 61850 Client implementations. The Anvil provides the ability to create a compliant IEC 

61850 Server by loading an arbitrary Object Model via an SCL file. The Server supports GOOSE, Reports, 

Log, Controls, and File services. It also provides the ability to generate simulation data automatically, 

manually, or table driven.

Anvil – Generate Simulation Data Automatically, Manually, or Table Driven 

Automatic Data Simulation will periodically increment selected data values by a configurable step amount 

between configurable min/max values. This mode is valuable for generating a large number of GOOSE, 

Report, and Log Messages. 

Create a ICCP/TASE.2 Server from scratch. Quickly define an ICCP/TASE.2 Object 

Model. The model can be serialized to XML for later retrieval.

Use the tree to display different sections of the object model and select which data values will be changed 

automatically. 

Adjust Step increments by double clicking in the Step field to edit the value. 

Set the Simulation Min and Simulation Max by double clicking in the respective fields. 

Manual Data Simulation is accomplished by simply right clicking on the Data Attribute and entering the 

desired value. The Flat View Pane shown below displays current simulation data values for the entire object 

model or a subset of the model based which filters are chosen. For example, to find all measurands simply 

check “MX” 

Table Driven Data Simulation allows changing a large number of Data Attribute values defined in a 

selected column of a comma separated value (csv) file.

The SCL Forge is a part of Triangle MicroWorks 61850 Test Suite. It provides the ability to edit/create 

Substation Configuration Language (SCL) files, DNP3 XML Device Profiles and map DNP3 & IEC 60870-5 data 

points to the IEC 61850 Object Model. SCL files contain the definition of the object model of a particular 

device or devices. SCL Forge focuses on configuring the pieces of the SCL file needed to define a 

particular device. SCL Forge translates the complex XML templates and presents the object model as a 

comprehensive hierarchy allowing you to view/edit the completed object model.
