DNP v3.00 (Level 2 plus more) |
|
 |
SIXNET
offers a versatile and highly configurable DNP slave driver
for IPm-based Controllers
and RTUs for
use in modern or legacy systems. It is
fully complaint with DNP v3.00 Subset Definition Level 2
and contains
many Subset Level 3 features plus some functionality beyond
Subset
Level 3. DNP (Distributed Network Protocol) is an open and
public
protocol maintained by the DNP User group (www.dnp.org).
It was
developed to achieve open, standards-based interoperability
between substation computers, RTUs, IEDs (Intelligent Electronic
Devices) and master stations for the electric utility industry.
The SIXNET IPm DNP slave driver enables data exchange with
all types of I/O within
IPm-based units and allows the maximum advantage of
the powerful IPm features
while providing full compliance with DNP standards. The
SIXNET IPm DNP driver is highly configurable with a Windows
utility that is fully integrated into the SIXNET
I/O Tool Kit. Get

The
DNP v3.00 driver for IPm Controllers
and RTUs implements
a SLAVE device function. This implementation
is fully compliant with DNP V3.00 Subset Definition Level 2 and
contains many Subset Level 3 features and some functionality beyond
Subset Level 3. |
|
| |
| The
DNP v3.00 slave driver for SIXNET IPm family of open Controllers
and RTUs has been
designed to enable data exchange with all types of I/O within the
IPm units and
to obtain the maximum advantage of IPm
features while providing full compliance with DNP standards.
The SIXNET
IPm DNP v3.00 slave is highly configurable. It includes a Windows
configuration utility which integrates into the SIXNET
I/O Tool Kit.
In order to ensure interoperability, extensions beyond Subset
level 2 are disabled by default. Such extensions can be enabled
by the means of the configuration utility.
