Scaling 16-bit AI objects

Scaling 16-bit AI objects allows accommodating native 32-bit analog input
readings to 16-bit object format; otherwise it may cause an over-range
error if the full-range value exceeds a 16-bit point limit.

Scaling is enabled by default. It is not related to points that are read using
32-bit AI objects.

Refer to the PM135 DNP3 Reference Guide for information on the data
point scales and a reverse conversion that should be applied to the
received scaled values.

Scaling 16-bit Binary Counters

Scaling 16-bit Binary Counters allows changing a counter unit in powers of
10 to accommodate a 32-bit counter value to 16-bit BC object format.

If the scaling unit is greater than 1, the counter value is reported being
divided by the selected scaling unit from 10 to 1000. To get the actual
value, multiply the counter reading by the scaling unit.

Configuring DNP Class 0 Responses

The most common method of getting static object information from the
meter via DNP is to issue a read Class 0 request. The PM135 allows you to
configure the Class 0 response by assigning ranges of points to be polled
via Class 0 requests.

2

The Select Before Operate command causes the meter to start a timer. The

following Operate command must be sent before the specified timeout value

expires.

3

The meter requests time synchronization by bit 4 in the first octet of the

internal indication word being set to 1 when the time interval specified by the

Time Sync Period elapses. The master should synchronize the time in the meter

by sending the Time and Date object to clear this bit. The meter does not send

time synchronization requests if the Time Sync Period is set to 0.
