3.12.9.1 Application
Automation bits, command function for DNP3 (AUTOBITS) is used within PCM600
in order to get into the configuration the commands coming through the DNP3.0
protocol.The AUTOBITS function plays the same role as functions GOOSEBINRCV
(for IEC 61850) and MULTICMDRCV (for LON).AUTOBITS function block have 32
individual outputs which each can be mapped as a Binary Output point in DNP3. The
output is operated by a "Object 12" in DNP3. This object contains parameters for control-
code, count, on-time and off-time. To operate an AUTOBITS output point, send a control-
code of latch-On, latch-Off, pulse-On, pulse-Off, Trip or Close. The remaining
parameters are regarded as appropriate. For example, pulse-On, on-time=100, off-
time=300, count=5 would give 5 positive 100 ms pulses, 300 ms apart.
For description of the DNP3 protocol implementation, refer to the Communication
manual.
3.12.9.2 Setting guidelines
AUTOBITS function block has one setting, (Operation: Enabled/Disabled) enabling or
disabling the function. These names will be seen in the DNP3 communication
management tool in PCM600.
