Communication Protocol Manual
3.2.1 Configuring IEC 60870-5-101
To configure one protocol instance to work as IEC 60870-5-101 slave, configure the
parameters to enable basic communication.
• Port

According to the physical wiring, set either to "IEC101-COM1" or "IEC101-
COM2". Set the correct serial mode and communication baud rate under COM1/
COM2 settings.
• Device Address
