About IEC 60870-5-104 Protocol Convertor

What is this project?

The 104 Convertor is a web-based tool designed to help developers, engineers, and students understand the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol, a standard for telecontrol and remote monitoring in power systems. This interactive application provides a visual representation of the protocol's data structures and allows for easy conversion between different address formats used in the protocol.

How is it useful?

Address Conversion: The ability to convert between ASDU (Application Service Data Unit) addresses and their corresponding CASDU1/CASDU2 formats, as well as between IOA (Information Object Address) and IOA1/2/3 formats. This is a common source of confusion and errors when working with the protocol.

• Visual Packet Structure: A clear and interactive diagram of the IEC 104 data packet, making it easy to understand the different fields and their functions.
• The IEC 104 protocol can be complex and difficult to grasp, especially for newcomers. This tool aims to simplify the learning process by providing:
• Educational Resource: A valuable resource for students and professionals who are new to the IEC 104 protocol, helping them to quickly get up to speed with its intricacies.
