Descriptor Element Configuration: Each Descriptors element is configured by clicking on the
individual DSX under the DNP3 Data-set Descriptor. Add new index by clicking Add in each DSX.
Descriptor Code: NAME, DAEL, PTYP
Data Type Code: VSTR, UINT, INT, FLT, OSTR, BSTR, TIME
Max Data Length (bytes): 0…255
Ancillary Value: Any string. This can be a binary array or ASCII string, up to 32 bytes.
Point Addressing under Descriptor Element Configuration: Data-Set value for each Data-Set
element is configured by:
• Point Address Type
• Point Index
When these values are configured properly according to the supported data files, the
controller responds with a Group 87, Variation 1 object filled with the value in the data file.
Table 9 on page 103
shows the supported data files for the Point Addressing.

When the Data Types other than OSTR and BSTR
are used, the Point Index must be set to a point
offset that is divisible by 16.
