258 DataSite DNP3 Configuration Utility (DS DNP3)

Operation and Data
Validation Example

If you want to communicate with the DataSite controller through TCP/IP by
using the DNP3 protocol, you need to have four data points each for AI, DI,
AO, and DO to send unsolicited responses. You need to configure the
controller as having one slave and multiple masters. The following is an
example to help you understand the use of DS DNP3 better.

Example

The system includes one outstation and four master stations. This means one
DataSite controller communicates with four DNP3 hosts over a physical
channel. The DNP3 address for the outstation is 4. The DNP3 addresses for
the four master stations are 3, 4, 5, and 6 respectively. The outstation connects
with the master stations via Ethernet. There are four data points on the
outstation. The outstation works in unsolicited mode.

The configuration procedure is as follows.

Step 1: Configure the PC parameters as follows.
