Trip/Close
The MVI46-DNP module supports Trip/Close functionality for Binary Output
points.
This allows Trip/Close commands to be sent to the MVI46-DNP module, for dual
point control. Each DNP Trip/Close command will occupy 2 bits within the
module memory.
This does overlap the regular pulse on/off and latch on/off Binary Output
database, therefore special consideration must be used to make sure that points
are not used twice.
The following table describes the address mapping for the module using Latch
and Pulse commands, and Trip/Close functionality.

As you can see from the above chart, trip/close requires 2 points within the
module's DNP database. A trip is represented by the value of 2#10 for those 2
points, and a close is represented by the value of 2#01 for those same 2 points.
The module can only process 1024 trip/close points, as the database for the DNP
BO is limited to 2048 bits total.
DNP Counter Data
This data type stores accumulated count data. These data are stored in the
module in a double word value and have a data range of 0 to 4,294,967,296. The
size of this data area is determined from the configuration parameter Number of
Counter Points. The data area is partitioned into two separate areas. The first is
the DNP counter data acquired from the SLC, and the second is the counter data
from the IED units. The configuration parameter, Number of Counter Points for
SLC, determines the size of the SLC's data area. The remaining portion is
defined as the IED counter data area.
