5 SETTINGS
The F35 can specify a maximum of five clients for its DNP connections. These are IP addresses for the controllers to which
the F35 can connect. The settings in this sub-menu are shown below.

responses are sent is determined by the F35 from the current TCP connection or the most recent UDP message.
The DNP scale factor settings are numbers used to scale analog input point values. These settings group the F35 analog
input data into the following types: current, voltage, power, energy, power factor, and other. Each setting represents the
scale factor for all analog input points of that type. For example, if the
all DNP analog input points that are voltages will be returned with values 1000 times smaller (for example, a value of 72000
V on the F35 will be returned as 72). These settings are useful when analog input values must be adjusted to fit within cer-
tain ranges in DNP masters. Note that a scale factor of 0.1 is equivalent to a multiplier of 10 (that is, the value will be 10
times larger).
The
DNP DEFAULT DEADBAND
settings group the F35 analog input data into the following types: current, voltage, power, energy, power factor, and other.
Each setting represents the default deadband value for all analog input points of that type. For example, to trigger unsolic-
ited responses from the F35 when any current values change by 15 A, the
be set to "15". Note that these settings are the deadband default values. DNP object 34 points can be used to change dead-
band values, from the default, for each individual DNP analog input point. Whenever power is removed and re-applied to
the F35, the default deadbands will be in effect.
The
DNP TIME SYNC IIN PERIOD
Changing this time allows the DNP master to send time synchronization commands more or less often, as required.
The
DNP MESSAGE FRAGMENT SIZE
fragment sizes allow for more efficient throughput; smaller fragment sizes cause more application layer confirmations to be
necessary which can provide for more robust data transfer over noisy communication channels.
Check the "DNP Points Lists" F35 web page to view the analog inputs and/or binary inputs points lists. This page
can be viewed with a web browser by entering the IP address of the UR Ethernet port employed to access the F35
"Main Menu", then by selecting the "Device Information Menu" > "DNP Points Lists" menu item.
NOTE
The
DNP OBJECT 1 DEFAULT VARIATION
default variation number for object types 1, 2, 20, 21, 22, 23, 30, and 32. The default variation refers to the variation
response when variation 0 is requested and/or in class 0, 1, 2, or 3 scans. See the DNP Implementation section in the DNP
appendix.
