MultiSmart Installation & Operation Manual
22.2.1 DNP3 Configuration
The entire list of DNP3 points can be accessed and configured by going to:
Multiple DNP Masters and DNP Slaves can be configured in MultiSmart. However considerations should be
given to the number of physical communication ports available and the size of the points list which in turn
affects the available free memory in the MultiSmart.
The MultiSmart has support for remote reconfiguration of DNP points list via DNP file transfer from the
master station. Contact MultiTrode to find out more details about how to configure the DNP master station to
support this.
MultiSmart has support for WITS-DNP, which is a standard being widely adopted throughout the UK water
industry. For more information about setting up the MultiSmart for WITS-DNP communications, see
Appendix E – Setting Up WITS-DNP Communications.
22.2.1.1 Add DNP Slave
A DNP slave is created by default in the MultiSmart when the default configuration is used or the setup
wizard is being used to generate a standard configuration. Select this option if a new slave is to be added.
This requires a reboot of the MultiSmart.
Once a slave is added, go to the DNP Slave option to configure the points list. You may have to select the
appropriate slave using "Next Slave" or "Previous Slave" buttons which are visible if more than one slave is
configured.
Then select the Protocol Settings to configure the communication channel.
22.2.1.2 Add DNP Master
Select this option to create a DNP Master. When a master is created, a slave profile for that particular master
is also created by default. To add another slave profile under the master, use the Add DNP Master Slave
option. Multiple masters can be created by selecting this option again. A restart of the MultiSmart is required
for each addition of a master.
Once a master is added, go to the DNP Master option to configure the points list. You may have to select the
appropriate slave using "Next Slave" or "Previous Slave" buttons which are visible if more than one slave is
configured under the same master or if multiple masters are present.
Then select the Protocol Settings to configure the communication channel.
