The remote DNP master unit can read the current status data and the event data
from the module. Event messages generated by the module can be retrieved
using a poll for Class 2 data, as all digital input events are considered a Class 2
data type. If unsolicited message generation is enabled in the application, the
module automatically sends the events to the DNP master unit when the
maximum event count for Class 2 data is reached, or when the timeout for
unsolicited messages is exceeded. The following shows a data flow diagram for
the digital input data:
All data associated with the digital inputs is transferred from the SLC to the
module in M1: file data area 0 to 127. This provides for a maximum number of
2048 points.
