5.1 Product Specifications
The MVI69 DNP 3.0 Server over Ethernet Communications Module supports the
implementation of the DNP 3.0 (Distributed Network Protocol) over Ethernet,
allowing CompactLogix processors to easily communicate with host systems
supporting the protocol. The module supports DNP Subset Level 2 features and
some Level 3 features.
The module supports DNP subset level 2 features and some Level 3 features.
The MVI69-DNPSNET module acts as an input/output module between the DNP
Ethernet network and the CompactLogix backplane. The data transfer from the
CompactLogix processor is asynchronous from the actions on the DNP network.
Databases are defined in the module to house the data required by the protocol.
