IP Address (if applicable)

This is the IP address to which the control sends all unsolicited responses (if enabled).

It is also used to verify whether a master is one of the registered masters (both DNP

and IP addresses must match). An IP address of 0.0.0.0 is represented as blank on the

IntelliLink software screen. When using serial communications, specify the DNP master

address and the serial port to be used. All other IP related parameters are ignored. The

listening port for incoming TCP connections and UDP packets is hard coded at 20,000.

Entering an IP Address

The IP address entry has been simplied, follow these steps to enter an IP address:

STEP 1. Click and highlight the character in the rst cell.

STEP 2. Type one to three characters as needed.

STEP 3. Hit the space bar to advance to the next eld. Advancing in this fashion

automatically highlights the characters in the next eld.

STEP 4. Repeat typing, followed by the space bar until entry is complete.

To revert to the IP address value presently configured in the control memory, press

the <Esc> key or click the Reset button in the tool bar.

Port Code

This is the port through which unsolicited report-by-exception DNP frames to the master

station are sent. Port A (serial) is the default. Select TCP if the SCADA master is congured

for a TCP/IP connection, and select UDP if the SCADA master is congured for UDP/IP.

The port code also is used to check that an incoming message is from a registered

master. In addition to the DNP address and IP address (if TCP or UDP is used), the port

code must also match.

Port Number

This setting is ignored unless the TCP or UDP option has been selected for the master

station Port Code setting. This port is the outgoing port for unsolicited TCP or UDP

messages that occur when there isn’t an active session with the master. (Range: 1,024-

65,535; Step: 1; Default: 20,000)

Note: UDP uses the fixed port 20,000 as source and destination.

TCP Interface

When conguring the IP address (if applicable), set this to the Ethernet port associated

with that IP address. This setting is ignored unless the TCP option has been selected for

the Master Station Port setting. Select the Add-On or Native setting. The Not TCP

option is a placeholder and is not applicable. Select the Add-On setting for IntelliRupter

fault interrupters because they do not have a native Ethernet port.

For IntelliRupter fault interrupters, the control module catalog number SDA-4540R3

has Ethernet I and Ethernet 2 ports. Ethernet 1 is the Native port and Ethernet 2 is the

Add-On port. Either port can be configured for an IP address.
