●
TIM 3V-IE DNP3
Number in total: Max. 8,
of which:
–
Via the Ethernet interface: Max. 8
–
Via the RS-232 interface: Max. 8
Note
Double the connection resources with direct communication between stations (only via
Ethernet or dial-up network)
Note that when there is direct communication between two stations, 2 connection resources
are occupied per station: One for the master station connection, one for the station
connection.
