Double digital input configuration procedure
If you are configuring a D20E-S module, you need to convert 64 single Digital Input points
to 32 double Digital Input points.
If you are configuring a D20E-C module, you need to convert 16 single Digital Input points
to 8 double Digital Input points.
For example, to configure double DI points on a D20E-S module:
1. Navigate to the Provider > IED section.
1.1. Delete the last 32 points under Provider > IED > Digital Input > General.
1.2. Change the value type to Double DI.
1.3. Change the Value Type setting for the first 32 points to Double Point.
2. Navigate to Provider > IED > Digital Input > Protocol
2.1. Change the Physical Index setting for the double DI (start from 1,3,5,…).
2.2. Change the Physical Index 2 setting for the double DI (start from 2,4,6,…).
3. Navigate to the Publisher > View > Digital Input > General section:
3.1. Delete the last 32 points.
3.2. Change the value type to Double DI.
3.3. Change the Value Type setting for the first 32 points to Double Point.
Multiple inputs mapped to the same physical index may cause these points to appear off-
line and not be reported. The Inspect tool does identify conflicts under Physical Index 2.
