Three questions:

1. How to link data center expert platform (SNMP) to DNP3 protocol (That´s the case, an electrical distribution customer, DNP3 it is its main protocol). Any clue helps

2. Is there any way to link the Inrow communcication card to DNP3 protocol ?.

3. Have you tested a gateway such as FieldServer to joint both of them ?

Hi Victor,

Neither the DCE nor the InRow units use the DNP3 protocol. I've searched the web and there do appear to be some protocol converters available for DNP3 to modbus. I can't speak to the specifics as I've never dealt with DNP3 but perhaps others on this forum can provide a more hands-on, detailed suggestion.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Victor,

DDFs for DCE7 have been developed in the past for Fieldserver devices over SNMP, though I couldn't say for sure whether any of those Fieldserver devices were translating from DNP3 protocol.

You may find results for Fieldserver if you search at ddf.ecostruxure.com, however, these are bespoke DDFs intended for a particular customer's configuration and will probably not work for your device. Your best option is to start a new request directly.

Regards,

Glenn Martin
