Description

DNP 3.0 Master/Slave Communication Module

MVI71-DNP

The MVI71 DNP 3.0 Master/Slave Communication Module is a single slot, backplane compatible DNP 3.0 interface solution for the PLC platform. This module provides highly configurable support of both DNP 3.0 Master and Slave implementations (level 2 minimum), allowing the many SCADA and field devices supporting the DNP protocol to be integrated into the powerful PLC platform.

 

Features and Benefits

The module supports DNP Subset Level 2 features and some of the Level 3 features allowing the many SCADA and field devices supporting the DNP protocol to be integrated into the PLC platform. The module acts as an input/output module between the DNP network and the PLC backplane. The data transfer from the PLC processor is asynchronous from the actions on the DNP network. Databases are user defined and stored in the module to hold the data required by the protocol.

 

Applications

With the growing usage of the DNP protocol over Ethernet technology in the industrial marketplace, this product has a wide variety of application uses. Industries that use this technology include:

  • Power and distribution applications
  • Petrochemical
  • Water and Gas Applications
  • SCADA and DCS applications

    • Status data available in ladder logic

     

Support for PLC processor programming over Ethernet using a TCP/IP service and a serial port on the module connected to channel 0 of the processor. The module’s third port emulates Channel 0 of the processor to pass through messages from the port to the processor

 

Server Specifications

  • Supports EtherNet/IP explicit, connected, and unconnected class messaging
  • Twenty independent server connections permit remote clients to interact with all data contained in the module
  • Data can be derived from other clients on the network, through the client on the module, or from the PLC processor

 

Client Specifications

  • Actively issues connected, explicit messages to other nodes on the network
  • Supports 100 user-defined commands from a single client
  • Allows command control from ladder logic
  • Pass-through services
  • Permits remote programming of the PLC processor on the Ethernet network via a pass-through
  • TCP/IP service and a serial communication port (pass-through port) on the module
  • The third port on the module can emulate the Channel 0 port on the PLC, This allows a DF1 master device attached to the emulated (Channel 0) port to monitor and control data in the PLC.
