2.1.1 Module

Address

The 4205/5205-TS-104S-PDPS module is identified at transport level (using the
IP Address) and at application level (using the Common ASDU Address).

IP Address

The 4205/5205-TS-104S-PDPS module is identified by a unique IP address on
the TCP/IP network. You must edit the WATTCP.CFG configuration file (or use
the configuration tool) to enter a valid IP address. The following example lists the
default contents of the WATTCP.CFG file:

# ProSoft Technology

# Default private class 3 address

my_ip=192.168.0.100

# Default class 3 network mask

netmask=255.255.255.0

# The gateway I wish to use

gateway=192.168.0.1

# some networks (class 2) require all three parameters

# gateway,network,subnetmask

# gateway 192.168.0.1,192.168.0.0,255.255.255.0

In this example, the 4205/5205-TS-104S-PDPS module is identified by IP
address 192.168.0.100 in the IEC-60870-5-104 network, with a netmask (subnet
mask) of 255.255.255.0 and a default gateway address of 192.168.0.1.

Because there could be several devices in the same TCP/IP network, some
applications may require a connection control (from which IP addresses the
module may receive valid messages).

To restrict the units (IP addresses) from which the 4205/5205-TS-104S-PDPS
module will accept connections, use the following parameter:

Use IP List : 0 #Use IP list to validate connection

#(0=No, 1=Yes)

If this parameter is set as 1 (Yes), the module will only accept a connection from
a client unit that is listed in the IP address list, in the following format:

[IEC-870-5-104 IP ADDRESSES]

START

192.168.0.207

192.168.0.203

192.168.0.61
