4.3 Network configuration
(Network-specific parameter, all configurations that are used are to be marked with
“X”.)
Point-to-point Multipoint-party line
Multiple point-to-point Multipoint-star
4.4 Link layer
(Network-specific parameter, mark all used options with an “X“. Specify the
maximum frame length. If a non-standard assignment of class 2 messages is
implemented for unbalanced transmission, indicate the Type ID and COT of all
messages assigned to class 2.)
Frame format FT 1.2, single character 1 and the fixed time-out interval are used
exclusively in this companion standard.

When using an unbalanced link layer, the following ASDU types are returned in class
2 messages (low priority) with the indicated causes of transmission:
The standard assignment of ASDUs to class 2 messages is used as follows:
