Date Code 20120126 Instruction Manual SEL-2032 Communications Processor
Protocols
Serial Distributed Network Protocol (Serial DNP3)
For point-to-point connections, we recommend that you use Unsolicited
Report-by-Exception as it provides the greatest communications efficiency
and data update performance. If, however, your master does not support
unsolicited data or you are using a multidrop system where other devices do
not have adequate DNP Link Busy Monitoring, use Polled Report-by-
Exception. If you wish to collect time-stamped event information, you must
use either Polled Report-by-Exception or Unsolicited Report-by-Exception to
collect Object Type 2 data (time-stamped binary events).
Device Profile
Document
As required by the DNP V3.00 Subset Definitions document, below is the
device profile.
Unsolicited
Report-by-Exception
The slave devices send
unsolicited event data to
the master and the
master occasionally
sends integrity polls for
static data.
Set CLASS to a non-zero
value, Set UNSOL_REP = Y,
Set NUM_EVENT and AGE_TX
according to how often you want
messages sent.
Quiescent The master never
polls and relies on
unsolicited reports only.
Set CLASS to a non-zero
value, Set UNSOL_REP = Y,
Set NUM_EVENT and AGE_TX
according to how often you want
messages sent.
