2.2.7 Failure Flag Count
0 to 65535
This parameter specifies the number of successive transfer errors that must
occur before the communication ports are shut down. If the parameter is set to 0,
the communication ports will continue to operate under all conditions. The value
range should be between 0 and 6900.
2.2.8 Error Offset
0 to 8899
This parameter specifies the register location in the module's database where
module status data will be stored. If a value less than 0 is entered, the data will
not be stored in the database. If the value specified is in the range of 0 to 8966,
the data will be placed in the modules database.
2.2.9 Initialize Output Data
Yes or No
This parameter determines if the output data for the module should be initialized
with values from the processor. If the value is set to N, the output data will be
initialized to 0. If the value is set to Y, the data will be initialized with data from
the processor.
2.3 [DNP ENET Slave]
This section provides information required to configure a slave application with
the module. Most entries contained within this section are self explanatory with
the possible exception of the Use IP List directive. This directive instructs the
module to verify the address of the received message and ignore the message if
it is not on our list of acceptable clients.
2.3.1 Internal Slave ID
0 to 65534
This is the DNP address for the module. All messages with this address received
from the master will be processed by the module.
2.3.2 Use IP List
Y or N
This parameter specifies if the IP address of the host connected to the system
will be validated. If the parameter is set to N, any host may connect to the unit. If
the parameter is set to Y, only hosts in the IP list will be permitted to connect to
the module. All other IP addresses will be ignored by the module and the module
will issue a RST to the TCP/IP connection.
