Exporting and Importing DNP3 / MODBUS Points List
MultiSmart can export DNP and MODBUS 'Slave' or 'Master Slave' points list to a compact flash card or
saved to the /tmp directory where it can be copied from the unit using FTP.
The DNP slave and MODBUS slave points list can be edited and imported back into the unit using the Import
CSV option in MultiSmart. The corresponding options can be accessed by browsing through the following
menu.
22.2.5
Protocol Settings
Figure 140 – Protocol Settings
In this menu we can see the list of all DNP & MODBUS, Master/s and Slave/s configured in the MultiSmart
unit. The menu also shows the master/slave number, master/slave address, communication channel and the
type of the communication link. Most of the common settings can be accessed from this menu. However, if
further advanced settings are to be configured, you have to go into the Advanced menu.
To edit the settings of a particular master or slave, select the item in the list and press Select.
Once you are in this menu, input the new values using the keypad or use the Toggle button to cycle through
the options. When the changes have been done, press the Save button for that to be written to the
configuration files. Most of the communication settings changes need a restart of the unit them to come into
effect. Press the Channel button to view and edit the channel settings and press the IP Address wherever
applicable while configuring the communication over TCP/IP to change the IP Address and the port used.

Questions and answers
I have four pumps connected to my multi smart. One jockey and three that rotate with the jockey as needed. My problem is that the jockey pump always shows its running even when it isn't running. the other pumps show actuate run times and starts. only the main pump shows continuous run even when it is turned off. I was wondering if there any advice I could be given to resolve this issue.
The MultiTrode MultiSmart may show the jockey pump as continuously running even when it is turned off due to the "External Run" status. This occurs if the pump is started by an external control method, such as a manual override switch, where the contactor remains closed but no run command was sent by the controller. As a result, the system continues updating run time statistics and generating relevant faults or warnings. Checking for an external control signal or a stuck contactor may help resolve the issue.
