dresses” should be translated to the same IP address and UDP port pair, where the multiple
SCADA units are connected. There are 3 possibilities how to fill in the line in the table:
− One "Protocol address" to one "IP address" (e.g.: 56 −−> 192.168.20.20)
− Interval of "Protocol addresses" to one "IP address" (e.g.: 56 – 62 ===> 192.168.20.20)
− Interval of "Protocol addresses" to interval of "IP addresses" (e.g.: 56 – 62 ===>
192.168.20.20 – 26). It is possible to write only the start IP and dash, the system will add the
end address itself.
•
Protocol address
This is the address which is used by SCADA protocol. It may be set either in Hexadecimal
or Decimal format according the List box value.
Protocol address length can be 1 Byte, only for some protocols, e.g. DNP3 and UNI can
also be 2 Bytes.
•
IP
IP address to which Protocol address will be translated. This IP address is used as des-
tination IP address in UDP datagram in which serial SCADA packet received from COM1(2)
is encapsulated.
•
UDP port (Interface)
This is UDP port number which is used as destination UDP port in UDP datagram in
which the serial SCADA message, received from COM1(2), is encapsulated.
•
Note
You may add a note to each address up to 16 characters long for your convenience. (E.g.
“Remote unit #1 etc.).
•
Active
You may tick/un-tick each translation line in order to make it active/not active.
•
Modify
Edit Delete Add buttons allow to edit or to add or to delete a line. The lines can be sorted
using up and down arrows.
•
Slave
SCADA Slave typically only responds to Master requests, however in some SCADA protocols it
can communicate spontaneously.
Messages from serial interface are processed in similar way as at Master site, i.e. they are encap-
sulated in UDP datagrams, processed by router inside the RipEX and forwarded to the respective
interface, typically to Radio channel.
○
Broadcast accept
List box: On, Off
Default = On
If
On
, broadcast messages from the Master SCADA device to all Slave units are accepted and
sent to connected Slave SCADA unit.
Protocols implemented:
None
All received frames from COM port as well as from the RipEX network are discarded.
Async link
Async link creates asynchronous link between two COM ports on different RipEX units. Received
frames from COM1(2) or from a Terminal server 1-5 are sent without any processing transparently to
Radio channel to set IP destination and UDP port. Received frames from Radio channel are sent to
COM1 or COM2 or Terminal server 1-5 according UDP port settings.
