As an example, 16-bit, 32-bit and Short Floating Point Analog Output Object 
Files are configured as below. Data File N17 has 10 elements, L18 has 10 
elements and F19 has 10 elements accordingly. A total of 30 Analog Output 
Object index are configured. Index 0 of the Analog Output Object is N17:0, 
Index 10 is L18:0, Index 20 is F19:0 and Index 29 is F19:9.
 
Analog Output Command – Control analog output block (AOB)
When the controller is in Non-executing mode, the controller will not accept 
an Analog Output Command. The controller returns a Control Status Code 7 in 
the response. To access the objects 41(AOB), the controller mode should be in 
Executing mode.
Note that Executing mode includes Run, Remote Run, Test Continuous Scan, 
and Test Single Scan modes. Any other modes are Non-executing modes.
DNP3 BCD Object
The supported object group and variations are:
Numeric Static Objects:
• g101v1 – Binary-Coded Decimal Integer – Small
Related Object File Number:
• Small BCD Object File Number
Related Configuration File Number:
• Small BCD Config File Number
To generate a Small BCD Object from the DNP3 Subsystem in the controller, 
you should configure the Small BCD Object File Number in the DNP3 Slave 
Application Layer Configuration file.
