APPENDIX H: DISTRIBUTED NETWORK PROTOCOL (DNP)
O
VERVIEW
The
311L family of relays are available with the option to support Distributed Network
SEL-
Protocol (DNP) 3.00 Level 2 Slave protocol. This includes access to metering data, protection
elements (Relay Word), contact I/O, targets, sequential events recorder, breaker monitor, relay
summary event reports, settings groups, and time synchronization. The
supports DNP point remapping.
C
ONFIGURATION
To configure a port for DNP, set the port PROTO setting to DNP. Although DNP may be
selected on any of the available ports, DNP may not be enabled on more than one port at a time.
The following information is required to configure a port for DNP operation:

The RTS signal may be used to control an external transceiver. The CTS signal is used as a
DCD input, indicating when the medium is in use. Transmissions are only initiated if DCD is
de-asserted. When DCD drops, the next pending outgoing message may be sent once an idle
time is satisfied. This idle time is randomly selected between the minimum and maximum
allowed idle times (i.e., MAXDLY and MINDLY). In addition, the
received data and treats receipt of data as a DCD indication. This allows RTS to be looped back
to CTS in cases where the external transceiver does not support DCD. When the
