• TRANSMISSION DELAY: Select the minimum time from when a DNP request is received
and a response issued. A value of zero causes the response to be issued as quickly as
possible.
• DATA LINK CONFIRM MODE: Select the data link confirmation mode for responses
sent by the 745. When “Sometimes” is selected, data link confirmation is only
requested when the response contains more than one frame.
• DATA LINK CONFIRM TIMEOUT: Selects a desired timeout. If no confirmation response
is received within this time, the 745 will re-send the frame if retries are still available.
• DATA LINK CONFIRM RETRIES: Select the maximum number of retries that will be
issued for a given data link frame.
• SELECT/OPERATE ARM TIMEOUT: Select the duration of the select / operate arm timer.
• WRITE TIME INTERVAL: Select the time that must elapse before the 745 will set the
‘need time’ internal indication (IIN). After the time is written by a DNP master, the IIN
will be set again after this time elapses. A value of zero disables this feature.
• COLD RESTART INHIBIT: When disabled, a cold restart request from a DNP master will
cause the 745 to be reset. Enabling this setpoint will cause the cold restart request to
initialize only the DNP sub-module.
When “Disabled” is selected, a cold restart request will cause loss of protection until
the 745 reset completes.
