Chapter 155. IEC 60870 Server Component

Available as of Camel version 2.20

The IEC 60870-5-104 Server component provides access to IEC 60870 servers using the Eclipse NeoSCADA™ implementation.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-iec60870</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

The IEC 60870 Server component supports 2 options, which are listed below.

ServerOptions

resolveProperty Placeholders (advanced)

Whether the component should resolve property placeholders on itself when starting. Only properties which are of String type can use property placeholders.

true

boolean

155.1. URI format

The URI syntax of the endpoint is:

iec60870-server:host:port/00-01-02-03-04

The information object address is encoded in the path in the syntax shows above. Please note that always the full, 5 octet address format is being used. Unused octets have to be filled with zero.

155.2. URI options

The IEC 60870 Server endpoint is configured using URI syntax:

iec60870-server:uriPath

with the following path and query parameters:

ProtocolOptions

bridgeErrorHandler (consumer)

Allows for bridging the consumer to the Camel routing Error Handler, which mean any exceptions occurred while the consumer is trying to pickup incoming messages, or the likes, will now be processed as a message and handled by the routing Error Handler.
