IEC 60870-5-101 Master Communication Module
2.4.4 [IEC-101 Master Session x]
This section is used to define session x which runs on Port x. The session
sections of the configuration file are determined by the number of sessions set in
the configuration file. The sessions are referenced by a zero based index value.
For example, if the module is configured for four sessions, the configuration file
should contain sections for sessions 0 to 3 (that is, [IEC-101 Master Session 0] to
[IEC-101 Master Session 3]. Each of these sections will define the characteristics
of the specific controlled device to be interfaced.
