Configuring DNP Event Classes
The EM720 generates object change events for any static
analog input, binary input, and binary counter point when
a corresponding point either exceeds a predefined
threshold, or the point status changes. A total of 64
change event points are available for monitoring.
Object change events are normally polled via DNP Class 1,
Class 2 or Class 3 requests. You can link any change event
point to any event class upon the event priority. Refer to
the EM720 DNP3 Reference Guide for more information on
polling event classes via DNP.
A change event point index is normally the same as for
the corresponding static object point. To use independent
numeration for event points, enable re-mapping event
point indices via DNP Options setup (see above) so they
start with index 0.
Define a separate event setpoint for each static object
point to be monitored for change events. To view or
change the factory-set DNP event setpoints, select
Protocol Setup from the Meter Setup menu and click on
the DNP Event Setpoints tab.
