[0045] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method 100 for testing the interchangeability of communication interfaces of a smart converged terminal module in a distribution area according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the interchangeability testing method for the communication interface of the intelligent converged terminal module of the present invention reduces the carrier meter reading and wireless public network access processes required for setting up the test environment. The system uses standard functional modules and virtual meters to simulate actual equipment, improving the safety, reliability, and automation level of the testing work. It simplifies and quickly realizes the interchangeability testing of the communication interface of the intelligent converged terminal module of the substation. The test results can be used to guide manufacturers in the development and iteration of intelligent converged terminals of the substation, providing a good technical guarantee for product quality and the later field trial operation stage. The interchangeability testing method 100 for the communication interface of the intelligent converged terminal module of the present invention begins at step 101. In step 101, the standard functional module virtualizes different module objects according to the test requirements.

[0046] Preferably, the test requirements include: local communication module interface interchangeability test and remote communication module interface interchangeability test, wherein the local communication module interface interchangeability test and remote communication module interface interchangeability test include: management channel interchangeability test and data channel interchangeability test.

[0047] In step 102, communication connections are established between the standard functional module and the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area, the test system, and the virtual table; wherein, the module object establishes a communication connection with the test system through a communication interface.

[0048] Preferably, the method further includes:

[0049] A three-phase programmable power source is connected to the intelligent fusion terminal of the transformer substation to provide operating voltage and current to the test terminal.

[0050] In this invention, standard functional modules (local communication module, remote communication module, and extension module) and virtual tables are compiled from program source code, and the interchangeability of the communication interfaces of the intelligent converged terminal modules in the distribution area is tested using business interaction messages to verify whether the communication interfaces of each module of the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area meet the business requirements.

[0051] like Figure 2As shown, the system architecture of this invention consists of a three-phase programmable source, a communication interface, a test system, standard functional modules (hardware and software), and a virtual meter. The three-phase programmable source provides operating voltage and current to the test terminal.

The test system functions include a scheme configuration module, a custom debugging module, a basic parameter module, a user and service permission module, and a communication monitoring module.

[0052] The system structure of this invention can achieve the following functions:

[0053] 1) The standard functional module can simultaneously virtualize 3 different module objects and manage the information of the 3 functional modules;

[0054] 2) Standard functional modules interact with the intelligent converged terminal, front-end processor, and virtual table in the distribution area via TCP / IP;

[0055] 3) The standard functional modules support the interface protocols of the local communication module and the remote communication module;

[0057] 5) The front-end machine encapsulates the interface protocols of standard function modules, virtual tables, and platform control protocols for the test system to call.

[0058] In step 103, based on the module object virtualized by the standard functional module, the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area, the test system, and the virtual table, the interchangeability test of the communication interface of the intelligent converged terminal module is performed to verify whether the communication interface of each module of the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area meets the business requirements.

[0059] Preferably, when the test requirement is a management channel interchangeability test:

[0060] The test system loads the front-end machine, which calls the platform control protocol library to power on the intelligent fusion terminal in the control area.

[0061] After the standard function module is powered on, the test system sets the module object, IP address, and port number for the standard function module and the software standard function module through the front-end software to establish a connection with the test system; the software standard function module interacts with the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area through the "front-end computer-serial server-standard function module";

[0062] The smart converged terminal in the distribution area sends the link negotiation request message to the software standard function module, and the standard function module organizes the response message and sends it uplink to the smart converged terminal in the distribution area.

[0063] The smart converged terminal in the distribution area will send the module information message to the software standard function module, and the software standard function module will organize the response message and send it uplink to the smart converged terminal in the distribution area.

[0064] The test system reads the module information of the smart converged terminal in the distribution area and compares it with the information of the set module objects to achieve the interchangeability test of the management channel.

[0065] Preferably, when the test requirement is a data channel interchangeability test:

[0066] The testing system configures the required parameters for testing the intelligent converged terminal equipment in the distribution area via Ethernet port;

[0067] The smart converged terminal in the distribution area interacts with the standard functional module of the software through the standard functional module data channel according to the identified module type, so as to realize the data channel interchangeability test.

[0068] This invention utilizes standard functional modules to replace actual modules, which not only reduces hardware costs but also improves testing efficiency. Specific test content is as follows: The interchangeability test of the communication interface of the intelligent converged terminal module in the distribution area can be further divided into management channel interchangeability testing and data channel interchangeability testing.

[0069] The management channel interchangeability test enables functions such as module identification, clock management, and file transfer.

[0070] Data channel interchangeability testing involves implementing different business data interaction functions for different functional modules.

[0071] The standard functional modules of this invention interact with the intelligent converged terminal, front-end machine, and virtual table in the distribution area via TCP / IP. The front-end machine encapsulates the standard functional modules, virtual table, and control protocol functions of the distribution system for use by the test system. Figure 3 As shown, the management channel interchangeability test process includes:

[0072] Step 1: The test system loads the front-end processor, which calls the platform control protocol library to control the terminal power-on.

[0073] Step 2: After the terminal is powered on, the test system sets the module type, IP address and port number of the standard function module through the front-end software, and the software standard function module establishes a connection with the test system.

[0074] Step 3: The software standard function module interacts with the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area through "front-end machine - serial port server - standard function module (hardware)".

[0075] Step 4: The terminal sends the link negotiation request message to "Standard Functional Module (Hardware) - Serial Port Server - Front-end Machine - Standard Functional Module (Software)", and the Standard Functional Module (Software) organizes the response message and sends it to the terminal via uplink;

[0076] Step 5: The terminal sends the module information reading message to "Standard Functional Module (Hardware) - Serial Port Server - Front-end Machine - Standard Functional Module (Software)", and the Standard Functional Module (Software) organizes the response message and sends it to the terminal via uplink;

[0077] Step 6: Test the system to read the module information of the terminal and compare it with the information of the set module object to realize the interchangeability test of the management channel.

[0078] In this invention, the testing process for the interchangeability of management channels is as follows:

[0079] 1) The test system is set with standard functional module types: Module 1: Local communication module, Module 2: Load identification, Module 3: Remote communication module;

[0080] 2) The standard function module management channel waits for the intelligent converged terminal in the receiving area to initiate a link negotiation request, replies according to the module type set in the scheme, and notifies the test system of the reply data;

[0081] 3) The standard function module management channel waits to receive information from the intelligent converged terminal reading module in the distribution area, replies according to the module information set in the scheme, and notifies the test system of the reply data;

[0082] 4) The software standard function module management channel waits for the intelligent converged terminal in the receiving area to set the module clock and reply with an acknowledgment frame, and then notifies the test system of the reply data;

[0083] 5) The test system reads the module information of the smart converged terminal in the distribution area and determines whether the data returned by the smart converged terminal in the distribution area is consistent with the data replied by the standard functional module;

[0084] 6) When the virtual module manages the terminal clock, the terminal should be able to reply with clock information normally.

[0085] 7) Test the file transfer process initiated by the intelligent fusion terminal in the test system's operation area;

[0086] 8) The software standard function modules wait for the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area to send files, and then notify the test system of the contents of the received files;

[0087] 9) After the file transfer is completed, the test system determines whether the file received by the software standard function module is consistent with the data of the file sent out;

[0088] Test complete.

[0089] In this invention, the data channel interchangeability test process for the remote communication module interface of the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area is as follows:

[0090] 1) Power the smart converged terminal in the distribution area with 220V AC power;

[0091] 2) Check if there is approximately 4V output voltage at the 4V output port;

[0092] 3) Once 4V output is available, it immediately enters a loop waiting to receive AT commands from the smart converged terminal in the distribution area;

[0093] 4) When the software standard function module receives the first AT command sent by the smart converged terminal of the distribution area and returns a response command to the smart converged terminal of the distribution area, it records the current time T1 and notifies the test system; if the first AT command received is AT$MYPOWEROFF, it ignores this command, waits to receive the next AT command and return a response command to the smart converged terminal of the distribution area, records the current time T1 and notifies the test system.

[0094] 5) After time T1, when the next AT command is received from the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area, record the current time T2 and notify the test system.

[0095] 6) The test system calculates the response time of the interactive command of the smart fusion terminal in the outer area based on the recorded time points, and determines whether the response time of the direct interactive command meets the technical specifications.

[0096] 7) The test system configures the wireless public network master station address, port, APN and other dialing parameters of the intelligent converged terminal equipment in the substation via the Ethernet port;

[0097] 8) The test system listens for and determines whether the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area issues instructions to set APN requests and PPP dialing requests;

[0098] Test complete.

[0099] In this invention, the data channel interchangeability test process of the local communication module interface of the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area includes:

[0100] ① Archive synchronization process

[0101] 1) After the identification process is completed, the test system sends two commands to the smart converged terminal of the distribution area through the Ethernet port interface of the distribution area smart converged terminal in sequence and waits to receive the corresponding response codes: "Clear Collection File Configuration Table" command; "Collection File Configuration Unit" command;

[0102] 2) The software standard function module waits for the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area to actively send the "parameter area initialization" or "delete slave node" command. After receiving the command, the software standard function module organizes the message response and notifies the test system of the received and sent messages. The test system determines whether the intelligent converged terminal in the distribution area actively sends the above command within the specified time.

[0103] 3) The standard function module of the software loops and waits for instructions sent by the intelligent converged terminal of the distribution area. After receiving the instruction, it organizes a message response and notifies the test system of the received and sent messages.

The smart converged terminal of the distribution area should be able to respond to the confirmation command. The software standard function module will send and receive message notifications to the test system for judgment.

[0109] 4) The smart converged terminal of the distribution area sends a reading of the electricity meter event command to the standard function module according to the actively reported status word content. The standard function module responds to the reading of the electricity meter event command, and the software standard function module sends and receives message notifications to the test system for judgment.

For the first correct event report from the smart distribution terminal in the distribution area, the master station will not respond and will continue to wait for the smart distribution terminal to report again, with a timeout period of 6 minutes. For the second correct event report from the smart distribution terminal in the distribution area, the master station will respond. After this, the smart distribution terminal in the distribution area should not report again. The software standard function module will send and receive message notifications to the test system for judgment.

[0113] 8) The standard function module will actively report the status word (a random flag position 1 with no corresponding "last ten event records") from the electricity meter to the smart converged terminal of the distribution area. The smart converged terminal of the distribution area should be able to respond to the confirmation command. The software standard function module will send and receive message notifications to the test system for judgment.
