ASE2000 V2 Communication Test Set User Manual 17
4.4. SelectionandCongurationofProtocol
The method for selection and conguration of protocol will depend on the Operational Mode.
4.4.1. ExchangeModeProtocolSelectionandConguration
In Exchange Mode, protocol selection is performed in one of four ways:
• Default protocol on start-up – If the default Operational Mode on start-up is Exchange Mode
and there was a saved “MONX” le during the previous execution, the last used MONX le will
automatically be loaded on start-up. This will establish operational parameters based on what
was previously set in the MONX le.
• Open existing MONX le – To establish an operating environment based on a previously
saved MONX le, from the task bar select “File > Open” and browse to the folder containing
the previously saved MONX le. Select the le and then select “Open”. This will establish
operational parameters based on what is contained in the MONX le.
• Open existing MON le – A MON le is similar to a MONX le, but created by ASE2000 Version
1 software. The procedure for opening a MON le is similar to opening a MONX le. The le
type, MON or MONX, is selectable from a pull down list in the bottom right portion of the le
open menu.
• Select protocol from protocol menu – On initial execution of the test set software or if a protocol
is required for which there is no existing MONX le, the required protocol is selected from
the Available Protocols menu. From the task bar select “File > Select Protocol” then select
the required protocol from the list. The Exchange List view will be updated to contain the
set of exchanges (commands, protocol messages) specic to the selected protocol. All other
operational parameters will be set to default values and will have to be modied for the current
test environment. This may include communication settings, device specic settings (RTU ID,
point conguration, etc.), and protocol specic settings.
