N3uron 1.22.4 introduces a release focused on connecting field-level data to higher-level control systems. At the center of this release is the new ICCP Server, a module that exposes N3uron data through the IEC 60870-6 (TASE.2) protocol used by utility and system operator control centers.
Standards-Based Grid Integration, Built In
Utilities, renewable operators, and grid-connected industrial sites have long needed a reliable way to hand off field data to system operator control centers without building a custom integration for every site. The new ICCP Server addresses that directly: any field data N3uron collects, from solar inverters, wind turbines, or battery energy storage systems (BESS), can now be normalized and served as standardized TASE.2 data objects, ready for consumption by remote control centers.
It's a shift away from one-off protocol translation projects toward a native, repeatable path from the edge to the grid.
Bidirectional Dispatch, Ready Out of the Box
Grid integration isn't one-directional. The ICCP Server is built to securely receive dispatch commands from system operators, active power curtailment being a common example, and route them instantly to edge PLCs and RTUs. That means a single N3uron deployment can both report status up to the grid and carry out control instructions down to the field, all through one standards-compliant channel.
Built on a Maturing IEC 60870 Foundation
This release also strengthens N3uron's broader IEC 60870 protocol coverage. The IEC 104 Client now supports Select-Before-Operate (SBO) command execution, adding a two-step confirmation model for safer, more compliant control operations, along with a 15-second command timeout for cases where the expected Cause of Transmission (COT) isn't received. Together with the new ICCP Server, these updates round out a more complete toolkit for utility and grid-facing deployments.
What Else is New in 1.22.4
In addition to the ICCP Server, this release includes:
• A new Distributed WebVision architecture, letting visualization workloads run across multiple Web Vision instances while operators keep a single point of access
• Alarm shelving support across Bootstrap, Historian, WebUI, and WebVision, so operators can temporarily suppress specific alarms without disabling them
• OAuth 2.0 authentication for the MCP Server, adding secure, token-based access control for AI agent connections
• New data filters on OPC UA Client monitored items, reducing unnecessary traffic by filtering updates to timestamp changes only
The Bottom Line
N3uron 1.22.4 gives grid-connected deployments a direct, standards-based path between field data and system operator control centers, without sacrificing the flexibility N3uron is built on.
Bridge the field. Reach the grid.
