S&C Instruction Sheet 461-509

The purpose of the
DNP3 Outstation Settings
screen is to specify how the communication
gateway will operate within a
Proxy
mode between the TripSaver II recloser and the
SCADA master and to confi gure the DNP3 point codes/mapping for DNP3 communications
to the TripSaver II recloser. In this fi rmware release, version 2.0, the communication
gateway will operate in
Concentrator
mode only.
RTU Concentrator
mode (default)
hosts a single RTU DNP3 address for all TripSaver II reclosers it supports. The
communications gateway will deliver information for each TripSaver II recloser mapped to
separate point codes, providing more effi cient SCADA integrity poll messaging overhead
and conserving DNP address space.
Note:
The Web-user interface enforces a 30-minute session inactivity timer. When
many inputs are required, it is recommended to routinely save settings.
