DNP3 Emerson EIE

The DNP3 Emerson EIE enables a CygNet host to communicate with field devices that support the industry standard DNP3 (Distributed Network Protocol) protocol. Like most CygNet EIEs, the DNP3 EIE is a template-driven EIE.

CygNet suggests you adopt guidelines for best practices for the DNP3 Emerson EIE. See Best Practices for more information.

DNP3 Protocol requires the use of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The Display Name drop-down menu of the Time Zone page on the Device Editor must be set to "(UTC) Coordinated Universal Time". If not already defined, ensure that you properly define and install a CygNetTimeZones.xml file to include the UTC drop-down time zone option for the DNP3 Emerson EIE.

See Time Zone Page in the Devices section for more information.
