DNP3 in the SEL-700G
With no scaling, the value of 12.632 would be sent as 12. With a scaling
setting of 1, the value transmitted is 126. With a scaling setting of 3, the value
transmitted is 12632. You must make certain that the maximum value does not
exceed 32767 if you are polling the default 16-bit variations for Objects 30
and 32, but you can send some decimal values using this technique. You must
also configure the master to perform the appropriate division on the incoming
value to display it properly.
You can set the default analog value scaling with the DECPLAn, DECPLVn,
and DECPLMn settings. Application of event reporting dead bands occurs
after scaling. For example, if you set DECPLAn to 2 and ANADBAn to 10, a
measured current of 10.14 amps would be scaled to the value 1014 and would
have to increase to more than 1024 or decrease to less than 1004 (a change in
magnitude of ± 0.1 amps) for the device to report a new event value.
Phase angles have a default scale factor of 10 and the ANADBM dead-band
setting applies to them. For the angles to generate events, the corresponding
magnitude also has to exceed its dead-band setting (ANADBA).
The SEL-700G uses the NUMEVEn and AGEEVEn settings to decide when
to send unsolicited data to the master. The device sends an unsolicited report
when the total number of events accumulated in the event buffer for master n
reaches NUMEVEn. The device also sends an unsolicited report if the age of
the oldest event in the master n buffer exceeds AGEEVEn. The SEL-700G has
the buffer capacities listed in Table D.6.
Binary Controls
The SEL-700G provides more than one way to control individual points. The
SEL-700G maps incoming control points either to remote bits or to internal
command bits that cause circuit breaker operations. Table D.12 lists control
points and control methods available in the SEL-700G.
A DNP3 technical bulletin (Control Relay Output Block Minimum
Implementation 9701-002) recommends that you use one point per Object 12,
control block output device. You can use this method to perform Pulse On,
Pulse Off, Latch On, and Latch Off operations on selected remote bits.
If your master does not support the single-point-per-index messages or single
operation database points, you can use the trip/close operation or use the code
field in the DNP3 message to specify operation of the points shown in
Configurable Data Mapping on page D.23.
Time Synchronization
The accuracy of DNP3 time synchronization is insufficient for most protection
and oscillography needs. DNP3 time synchronization provides backup time
synchronization in the event the device loses primary synchronization through
the IRIG-B input. You can enable time synchronization with the TIMERQn
setting and then use Object 50, Variation 1, and Object 52, Variation 2, to set
the time via the Session n DNP3 master (Object 50, variation 3 for DNP3
LAN/WAN).
By default, the SEL-700G accepts and ignores time set requests
(TIMERQn = I for “ignore”). (This mode allows the SEL-700G to use a high
accuracy, IRIG time source, but still interoperate with DNP3 masters that send
