• Double Bit Binary Input Config File Number
To generate a Double Bit Binary Input Object from the DNP3 Subsystem in the 
controller, you should configure Double Bit Binary Input Object File Number 
in the DNP3 Slave Application Layer Configuration file.
When the Double Bit Binary Input Object File is configured, the Index number 
starts from 0.
2 bits are used for one Index. 
As an example, a Double Bit Binary Input Object File is shown below. This file 
has 10 elements and 80 Double Bit Binary Input points. Index 0 of the Double 
Bit Binary Input Object is B20:0/0 and B20:0/1, Index 1 is B20:0/2 and B20:0/3, 
and Index 79 is B20:9/14 and B20:9/15.
As an example, a Double Bit Binary Input Config File is shown below. This file 
has 10 elements. B39:0/0 and B39:0/1 can be configured for Class Level 0, 1, 2, or 
3 for DNP3 Index 0…7 of the Double Bit Binary Input Object File. B39:1/0 and 
B39:1/1 can be configured for Class Level for DNP3 Index 8…15 of the Double-bit 
Binary Input Object File. Default Class Level is 0. Any other bits are reserved. 
So, in the example below, Class Level of Index 0…7 is 1(B39:0/0 and B39:0/1), 
Class Level of Index 8…15 is 2(B39:1/0 and B39:1/1), Class Level of Index 16…23 is 
3(B39:2/0 and B39:2/1), and Class Level of other Indexes are 0.
