DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].Object
This parameter specifies the DNP Object type
in the command. Valid Objects for the module
are 1, 2, 10, 12, 20, 21, 30, 32, 40, 41, 50, 60
and 80. A value of 0 is permitted in this field for
a set of special commands.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].Variation
This parameter is specific to the object type
selected.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].Function
This parameter specifies the DNP Function for
the command list Object. The Object type
determines the value of the Functions
permitted. For example, the only Function
permitted for Binary Input data points is the
READ FUNCTION (FUNCTION CODE 1). For
Counter and Output Objects, more functions
are available.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].Point_Number
_in_Server
This parameter specifies the starting point
address in the remote server unit. This value
must be greater than or equal to zero. If it is
set to a value less than zero, the command will
be ignored.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].Point_Count
This parameter defines the number of points in
the IED unit that will be affected by the
command. Refer to the discussion in the
Command List topic, above, to interpret this
parameter’s meaning for the different Object
types.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].DNP_DB_Poin
t_Number_in_Client
This parameter defines the starting point
address in the local Client's DNP database for
the command. If the parameter has a value of -
1, the DNP database is not used with the
point.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].IED_DB_Point
_Number_in_Client
This parameter defines the starting point
address in the local Client's IED database for
the command. If the parameter has a value of -
1, the IED database is not used with the point.
DNPNET.CONFIG.DNP_Client
_Commands[x].Poll_Interval
This parameter specifies the minimum
frequency at which the module should execute
the command. The value is entered in units of
seconds. For example, to execute a command
every 10 seconds, enter a value of 10 in this
field. A value of 0 for the parameter implies
that the command should be executed every
scan of the list, as often as possible.
