program displays an entry box for the RTS delay time.
Enter the time in milliseconds.

Response Time-Out

The Response Time-Out tells the DTU how long to wait
after transmitting a request to the PLC if no response has
been received from the PLC. After this amount of time

passes with no response being received, the DTU will
assume that no response is coming and will retry the
request. Enter the time in milliseconds.

Saving Port 1 Configuration Information

Once you have entered all the configuration information,
select Save to save the configuration to the project file.
Then select Ok or press the Esc key to close the configura-
tion screen.

If you have changed the configuration and have not saved it
to the project file, you will be prompted to either save or dis-
card the changes. Select Revert to return to the last previ-
ously saved configuration without saving any changes.

Device Setup—Port 2

One or more Siemens devices may be connected to port 2.
You must have a PLC to Devices project file open to config-
ure port 2 using the instructions in this section.

Select Port 2 (Devices) from the Edit menu, and the Port 2
configuration screen appears.

Device Protocol

The Device Protocol indicates which Siemens devices can
be connected to port 2. This protocol is based on which
version of the DTU3005 Editor software was installed as
described in Chapter 2.

The SEAbus protocol (as shown in the example screen
above) indicates connection to Siemens ACCESS com-
municating trip units, relays, power meters and other
devices.

The VDEW protocol indicates connection to Siemens
protective relays using the VDEW protocol.

Note: Not all Siemens devices are supported. For a list

of supported devices, see Appendix B.

Other Configuration Information

The remaining configuration selections are the same as
those for port 1. Refer to Section 4.3 for instructions on
these fields.
