General Information
This document describes the Basler Electric Distributed Network Protocol (DNP3) implementation in
BE1-11 Protection Syst ems. BE1-11 Protection Systems are classified as intelligent electronic devices
(IEDs) that are capable of reacting or responding to specific requests conforming to a level two slave
device, as defined in the DNP3 Subset Definitions Document. This manual contains a list of DNP data
objects accessible by a master station.
This implementation of DNP3 is fully compliant with DNP3 Subset
Definition Level 2, contains many Subset Level 3 features, and
contains some functionality even beyond Subset Level 3.
Notable objects, functions, and/or qualifiers supported in addition to the highest DNP levels supported
- Maximum response time is 150 ms.
Device Profile Document
Table 1 provides a device profile document in the standard format defined in the DNP3 subset definition
document. The table, in combination with the implementation table provided in the Implementation
chapter and the point list tables provided in the Point List chapter, provide a complete application
configuration guide for including the BE1-11 Protection System protocol in any DNP environment.
Table 1. Device Profile Document
(the complete list is described in DNP3 Implementation Table):
- For static (non-change-event) object requests, request qualifier codes 00 and 01 (start-stop), 07
and 08 limited quantity), and 17 and 28 (index) are supported in addition to request qualifier code
06 (no range – or all points).
- Static object requests sent with qualifiers 00,01,06,07, and 08, will be responded to with qualifiers
00 or 01.
- Static object requests sent with qualifiers 17 and 28 will be responded to with qualifiers 17 or 28.
- Only Analog Inputs and Binary Inputs are included in Class 0.
- The user can configure Class 0 by mapping Analog Input points and Binary Input points from
default lists to active “User Mapped Lists” using BESTCOMSPlus®.
- Dead band for each Analog Input point from “User Mapped List” is configurable via object 34, and
class assignment for each reporting binary and analog input point via DNP assign class function.
- Each Analog Input and Analog Output point has configurable scaling factor set through
BESTCOMSPlus.
- Enabling and disabling unsolicited responses on a Class-by-Class basis.
- Device supports DNP over serial (485) port or via Ethernet. Device provides a setting to select the
type of Internet Protocol connection to establish with a master datagram end point or a TCP
listening end point.
- Default variations for objects 1, 2, 30, 32, and 40 are programmable through BESTCOMSPlus or
the devices front panel.
- All DNP settings configured through BESTCOMSPlus or device front panel are saved in non-
volatile memory.
- Dead bands and assigned classes, changed via DNP, can be saved in non-volatile memory on
user request via Analog Output Block object 43 (point named “DNP Save Assigned Class and
Deadband”).
- Binary Outputs fixed list is shown in the Point List chapter.
- Analog Outputs fixed list is shown in the Point List chapter.
- Maximum number of objects allowed in a single control request for Analog Outputs is variable
depending on if a separate object header is used for each selected point or not. The size of SBO
buffer is 600 bytes (maximum 35 Analog Outputs with separate object headers).
- The device does not support putting the control outputs in a local state.
- Binary Input change event buffer size is the number of Binary Inputs multiplied by 4.
- Analog Input change event buffer size is the number of Analog Inputs.
- This device does not support Collision Avoidance.
- Select to Operate time delay is 30 seconds.
- Maximum Time Base Drift over 1 minute is 1.2 ms at room temperature and 3 ms over the entire
operating range.
- Maximum delay measurement error is 50 ms.
- Maximum internal time reference error when set from protocol is 250 ms.

BE1-11 Implementation Table
10 9424200773 Rev A
Notes for Table 2:
1. A default variation refers to the variation responded to when variation 0 is requested and/or in
class 0, 1, 2, or 3 scans.
2. This is a default “default variation”. Objects 1, 2, 30, 32, and 40 have configurable default
variation.
3. A cold restart is implemented as a warm restart – the DNP process is restarted, not BE1-11.
4. In Class 0 are included all binary input points from binary user map and analog inputs from
analog user map.

9424200773 Rev A 11
DNP Settings
This chapter describes configuration settings that must be set to enable the BE1-11 to support DNP.
Selection of DNP Protocol
Selection of DNP protocol is predetermined by the BE1-11 style number. BE1-11 Protection Systems that
support the DNP protocol must have a style number with the fifth character being the letter D (via RS-485)
or the sixth character being the number 3/4 (via Ethernet). This can be verified by reading the BE1-11
style number using BESTCOMSPlus® or the front panel interface. Reference the BE1-11 instruction
manual.
Since the BE1-11 has only one set of DNP data change buffers and connection information, only one
DNP master can actively communicate with the BE1-11 at one time as set by the BE1-11 style number.
DNP settings are configurable through BESTCOMSPlus and the front panel. C ert ain se tti ngs can only be
configured through BESTCOMSPlus, such as analo g and binary input points mapping to user-mapped
lists and scaling settings for analog inputs and analog output status points.
Deadbands for analog inputs and class assignments for events are configured only through DNP object
34 and DNP Assign function.
For more information about changing the BE1-11 parameters, refer to the appropriate BE1-11 instruction
manual.
DNP Configuration through BE STCO MS P lus® and the Front Panel
DNP over Ethernet Settings
1. Type of End Point (TCP Listening or UDP Datagram)
2. Local Port Number
- Default (20000) or
- Other (from 20000-65535)
3. Client IP Address
- any IP address (0.0.0.0) or
- specific IP address (string x.y.z.w)
TCP Listening End Point Setting
1. TCP Keep Alive Time (TCP Connection Timeout) in ms
- Range: 10000 to 86400000 ms (default value = 300000 ms (5 minutes))
UDP End Point Settings
1. Destination UDP port for initial unsolicited null response
- Default value is 20000 with range: 1024 to 65535
2. Destination UDP port for other responses
- Selection between:
- Use source port number (value 0) and
- Other port (range: 1024 to 65535)
3. Association timeout in ms
BE1-11 DNP Settings
- Range: 0 to 86400000 ms
12 9424200773 Rev A
Link Layer Settings
1. Data Link Address (Device DNP addr es s)
- Range: 0 to 65519 (default address = 1)
2. Data Link Layer Confirmation
- Select between NEVER/SOMETIMES/ALWAYS (default is NEVER. DNP over Ethernet
should always be NEVER.)
Application Layer Settings
1. Application response fragment size
- Range: 240 to 4096 (default size = 2048)
2. Application confirmation timeout
- Range: 1 to 2678400000 ms (default value = 5000 ms)
Time Synchronization Support Setting
Time synchronization is disabled by default (setting value = 0). Time synchronization should always be
disabled for DNP over Ethernet. Range is from 0 to 2678400000 ms. DNP synch time will affect the
device time based on Time Priority Setup. If not selected in Time Priority Setup settings list (DNP Priority
= 0), DNP sync time will not be used to synchronize device time. Clock setup is configurable using
BESTCOMSPlus and the front panel interface.
Unsolicited Response Support Settings
1. Unsolicited support DISABLED/ENABLED
- The DNP Unsolicited Response Function should be “Disabled” for RS-485 applications
since there is no collision avoidance mechanism.
2. Master Data Link Address (DNP Unsolicited Response Destin ati on Addr es s )
- Range: 0 to 65519 (default address = 5)
3. Unsolicited Response Confirmation Timeout in ms
- Range: 0 to 2678400000 ms. When setting = 0, the value is the same as setting for
Application Confirmation Timeout.
4. Number of unsolicited retries
- Range: 0 to 255 (default = 2)
5. Unsolicited off-line interval in ms
- Range: 0 to 2678400000 ms (default = 10000 (10 seconds))
6. Unsolicited response trigger conditions
- Number of Class 1 events (range from 1 to 100)
- Number of Class 2 events (range from 1 to 100)
- Number of Class 3 events (range from 1 to 100)
Objects Default Variations Settings
1. Default variation for Binary Input (Object 1)
- Range: 1 or 2 (default = 1)
2. Default variation for Binary Input Change (Object 2)
- Range: 1 or 2 (default = 2 (with time))
3. Default variation for Analog Input (Object 30)
- Range: 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 (default = 3 (32-bit without flag))
4. Default variation for Analog Input Change (Object 32)

Mapping of Binary and Analog Input Points
BESTCOMSPlus supports mapping of selected analog input points and binary input points to user map
lists. Only points from user map lists are included in Class 0, and generate events. User mapped listed
are saved in non-volatile memory. By default, all points from binary input points, as listed in the Point List
chapter are mapped to the binary point user map list. In addition, all points from analog input points, as
listed in the Point List chapter are mapped to the analog user map.
In BESTCOMSPlus, navigate to the following:
• Settings Explorer BE1-11 Communications DNP DNP Analog Points Mapping and
When an analog point value exceeds the range of the currently active object variation, the reported value
is a maximum amount for that variation and object variation that includes status has Over Range flag set.
The Over Range status can be avoided if the value is scaled with the appropriate scaling factor. Default
value for any point is 1.000. Range is from 1.000 to maximum 1000000000.000.
BE1-11 Protection Systems have a scaling factor per each analog input point and analog output status
point listed in the default tables in the Point List chapter for analog inputs and analog outputs.

BE1-11 DNP over Serial Line
The settings for RS-485 can be set using BESTCOMSPlus or the front panel interface. The RS-485 port
supports baud rates: 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 (default = 19200). Other
RS-485 configurable settings are Stop Bits, Parity, and Data Size.
BE1-11 DNP via Ethernet
DNP can communicate through Ethernet if the IP address of the BE1-11 is configured as described in the
Communications chapter of the BE1-11 instruction manuals.

Point List
Binary Input Points
Binary Input changes are scanned every quarter of a nominal cycle. Events are pending in the Slave
application buffer until the Master device sends confirmation that response with pending events was
received. Table 3 describes the default list of binary input points.
User can select Binary Input points from the default list in Table 3 and make active (mapped) list of points
as desired. Only all Binary Input points from “Binary User Map” list are included in Class 0, and generate
events. Only mapped points can be read through any “read” request. Mapping is only possible though
BESTCOMSPlus®.
Class assignment for each active binary input point (point mapped to User Binary Map) is configurable via
DNP assign class function.
Device Event buffer for Binary events is 4 times the total number of Binary inputs in default list.
Default variations for objects 1 and 2 are programmable through BESTCOMSPlus or the front panel of the
BE1-11.
Assigned classes, changed via DNP, can be saved in non-volatile memory on user request, via Analog
Output Block, object 41 (point named “DNP Save Assigned Class and Deadband”).
