Module Configuration with RSLogix
2.4.5 [IEC-101 Master Session x Sector y]
This section sets the parameters for a specific sector of a session. Within each
session definition, is a parameter that specifies the number of sectors for the
session. For each sector defined for a session, there must exist a [IEC-101
Master Session x Sector y] section. Where the x value represents the session
index and the y value represents sector index. For example if session 0 contains
1 sector, there must be a section with the following name in the configuration file:
[IEC-101 Master Session 0 Sector 0]. The specific sector parameter set and
database is defined in this section.
Common ASDU Address
0 to 255 (1 oct) or 0 to 65535 (2 oct)
This parameter sets the common ASDU address to association with this sector of
the specified session. The range of address for this parameter are dependent on
the length value set in the session section.
Use Time tag commands
Yes or No
This parameter specifies if a time tag field is to be included with commands. This
is as specified in the IEC-870-5-104 specification and should only be utilized if
the controlled device supports these new data types. If the parameter is set to
Yes, a time tag will be added to all commands. If the parameter is set to No, the
normal IEC 60870-5-101 data type messages will be utilized.
Online Time Sync.
Yes or No
This parameter specifies if the sector in the controlled device will be sent a time
synchronization command when the unit is first recognized as being online. This
should only be used for devices that do not send an EOI message after
initializing.
Online General Int
Yes or No
This parameter specifies if the sector in the controlled device will be sent a
general interrogation command when the unit is first recognized as being online.
This should only be used for devices that do not send an EOI message after
initializing.
EOI Time Sync.
Yes or No
This parameter specifies if the sector in the controlled device will be sent a time
synchronization command after this module received an EOI message from the
controlled unit.
