Description
[IEC 60870-5-103 MASTER PORT
x]
Settings for each communication port on
module
Baud Rate:
Value for
baud rate
This parameter specifies the baud rate to
be used on the communication channel
(port). Values from 110 to 19200K are
permitted.
Parity:
None, Odd,
Even
This parameter sets the parity to be used
on the port. The values correspond to the
following settings: None, Odd, Even.
NOTE: the specification only utilizes Even
Parity.
RTS On:
0 to 65535 The parameter sets the RTS presend
delay. The value entered represents the
number of milliseconds the module will wait
after setting the RTS modem line before
sending the data.
RTS Off:
1 to 65535 This parameter sets the RTS off delay. The
value entered represents the number of
milliseconds the module will wait after the
data packet is sent before dropping the
RTS modem line.
Minimum Delay:
1 to 60000 This parameter specifies the minimum
number of milliseconds to delay before
sending the message (setting RTS high).
This can be used when the serial network
requires time for units to turn off their
transmitters.
Receive Timeout:
1 to 65535 This value represents the number of
milliseconds to wait on a port from the time
the first character is received until the last
character in the longest message received
on the port. This parameter should be set
dependent on the baud rate. A value of
2000 should work with most applications.
Single char ACK F0,1 or 3:
Y or N
This parameter specifies if the single E5
character will be used for ACK messages.

Description
[IEC-103 MASTER SESSION x]
Settings for each session utilized
Communication Port:
0 or 1
This parameter sets the port to which the
controlled device is connected. On this
module, values of 0 and 1 are permitted.
Sector Count:
1 to 5
This parameter sets the number of sectors
contained in this controlled device. This
version of the application supports 1 to 5
sectors for each session.
