2 Solution
2.1 Overview
The control station uses telecontrol protocol DNP3 to communicate with the
outstation via Ethernet.
In the application example, the following types of message frames were configured.
Commands (binary command)
Measured values (analog input event)
Binary messages (binary input event)
Setpoint values (analog output event)
Static data (class 0) as well as events of all DNP3 event classes (class 1, 2 and 3)
were configured in order to illustrate the properties and differences of the classes.

This application shows a complete configuration of a DNP3 system with SIMATIC
components. The two following solutions were offered for the hardware
configuration.
Configuration via internet/VPN diagram
At the control station, the WinCC TeleControl software is installed, which makes
the control station the DNP3 master.
An S7-300 CPU with TIM3V-IE DNP3 as DNP3 station is installed on outstation
Pipeline.
Outstation Oil tanks consist of an S7-1200 CPU and a CP 1243-1 DNP3. (The CP
is responsible for the communication with the control station.)
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is configured for the master to communicate with
the stations via the internet. In this example, a DSL connection is available at the
master. In addition, a SCALANCE S612 VPN module is installed.
In each of the outstations, a SCALANCE M874-3 UMTS and VPN router (incl. SIM
card and antenna) is used, which establishes the VPN tunnel to the SCALANCE
S612 in the control station.
This enables a secure communication via the internet / mobile radio network.

The figure below gives a schematic overview of the most important components of
the solution:

This solution also provides the option to send alarms from the S7-1200 station to
the service personnel via e-mail; for example, if the CPU in goes to STOP mode or
a connection with the master is terminated. Application-specific information can
also be sent automatically via e-mail upon the occurrence of previously defined
events (e.g. exceeding of thresholds).

Note The function of sending alarms via e-mail is not available at the DNP3 TIM of the
S7-300 station at the time of generating the application.

Note Instead of using the DSL router, a DSL modem can also be used if the version of
the SCALANCE S 612 is V3 or higher.
In this case, the PPPoE function must be configured for SCALANCE S 612 in
Security Configuration Tool.

Scenario
The application example is operated via WinCC Runtime. The user interface is
displayed in the figure below.
Figure 2-3


In station Pipeline (S7-300), pressure and flow rate are measured and sent to the
master as unsolicited message frames. At the master, the operator can enter a
setpoint for the flow rate.
In station Oil Tanks (S7-1200), temperature and filling level are measured. The
filling level is sent to the master as unsolicited message frame. If the tank is filled
up to 80%, a message is sent to the master with the information that the tank is full.
At the same time, the message (alarm) is sent to the service personnel via an
e-mail. At the master, the operator has the option to open the valve so the tank is
not overfilled. A command is sent to the station via the Valve icon.
The measured values of the temperature are saved in the station and only sent
after the master has been polled. The old values are sent along and displayed in
WinCC Runtime as a trend.
Delimitation
This application does not contain any description of the basics of SIMATIC
WinCC V7:
Basic knowledge of this topic is required.
Assumed knowledge
Basic knowledge of configuration & programming with STEP 7 V5 and STEP 7 V12
is assumed.

3 Basics on DNP3
DNP3 is a telecontrol protocol which enables transmitting process data via serial or
IP based communication. This protocol was standardized by the DNP Users Group
and is often used in the sectors water/waste water as well as power distribution.
As opposed to the IEC 60870-5 and SINAUT ST7 protocols, which are widespread
in Europe, DNP3 is often used in the USA and Asia.
An important aspect of the DNP3 protocol is the higher compatibility and
interoperability between devices from different manufacturers.
This chapter discusses the basics on the DNP3 protocol relevant for this
configuration in SIMATIC S7-300 and S7-1200.

Note An overview of the DNP3 protocol is given in the DNP3 Protocol Primer (link
\10\) and the manuals of the respective DNP3 modules (link \3\ and link \4\).

3.1 DNP3 addresses
The DNP3 protocol defines a master, the computer for example, where the service
personnel can operate and monitor the plant and the outstations; these are the
remote stations, often also referred to as RTU (Remote Terminal Unit).
Each DNP3 device must have a unique address. This address is used for sending
the message frames to the correct partner.
The source and target address of a message frame is sent along with the process
data. The receiver then knows who to respond to.
In this application example, process data is send/received to/from 3 devices.
Communication occurs between the master and the S7-300 / S7-1200 station.
Cross-communication between the S7-300 and the S7-1200 via DNP3 protocol is
not possible at the time of creating the application.
The addresses are, in this application, assigned as follows.

Logic Function

You can choose an address between 1 and 65520.

Note The DNP3 configuration for the master and the station is performed via different
engineering tools (see Figure 3-1), therefore, a cross-system plausibility check of
the addresses cannot be performed.

3.2 DNP3 objects and SINAUT TD7 objects
The configuration of the DNP3 data objects for S7-300 is performed via the
SINAUT ST7 configuration tool in the form of TD7 objects. For example, in order to
configure a message/alarm/binary signal, the TD7 object Bin04B_S must be
configured in the tool. Object group and variation are not displayed in the SINAUT
ST7 configuration tool.

Note The assignment of the DNP3 objects to SINAUT TD7 objects is available in the
tables in chapter DNP3 objects and parameters at SINAUT under the link \3\. In
these tables, the DNP3 objects supported by the DNP3-TIMs are listed.
3.3 DNP3 classes
The DNP3 protocol classifies the process data as static data and events.
3.3.1 Static data (class 0)
Any analog and binary values pending in DNP3 stations, such as messages,
measured values, or count values, are referred to as static data.
Only the current values/states are transferred when requested by the master.
Intermediate values, or values produced during a connection failure, are not
buffered.
3.3.2 Events
An event is a message, alarm, measured value etc, where a significant change
occurs. For a binary input, for example, this might be a change from 0 to 1. For a
measured value, an event occurs if the analog value exceeds a threshold value.
For transferring the saved events, the DNP3 protocol defines two options:
the DNP3 master can poll the saved events of one or all of the event classes
and read them like static data.
the station can transfer events unsolicited.
The configuration of the DNP3 master defines whether the station reports
unsolicited events. The unsolicited sending of events through the station is
prompted by the master through a respective control frame to the station.
Note In order for the data to be sent unsolicited, the following function must be
activated: Unsolicited reporting in STEP 7 5.5, Unsolicited transfer in STEP 7
V12 SP1, and Unsolicited responses in WinCC TeleControl.

The events are divided into the following three classes:

Class 1
This class is recommended for critical events. All changes of a process value are
stored in the event memory and immediately sent to the master.
Class 2
The class 2 events are handled in the same way as the class 1events; i.e., all
changes of a process value are stored in the event memory and immediately sent
to the master.
Class 3
Handling the class 3 events is a proprietary solution for the DNP3-TIMs and the CP
1243-1. Only the last change of a process value is stored in the event memory. The
current, changed value is transferred to the control station when the control station
polls the events of event class 3.
Event class 3 is, for example, suitable for transferring count states, since only the
last count value is of interest.
3.4 Index
The DNP3 protocol specifies the index for characterizing one individual data point
within a DNP3 object group. There are the following groups: binary input, analog
input, counter input, control output and analog output.
Within a DNP3 object group, each individual process value is addressed via a
unique index. The DNP3 index is continuously assigned during configuration,
starting with index 0.
Index assignment at S7-300
The data points transferred in the send and receive channels are numbered
consecutively with rising index. The Bin04B_S data object, for example, contains
4 channels 1 byte for sending binary data. In each channel, 8 data points are
given a rising index according to the 8 bits. Channel 1 comprises index 0...7,
channel 2 comprises index 8...15 etc.

Note For data objects with several channels, a non-configured channel also assigns
an index. The Bin04B_S object, for example, contains 4 channels 1 byte; i.e.,
it assigns 4 x 8 indices, which makes a total of 32 indices.
If you have configured the Bin04B_S object with start index 0, and you wish to
configure a second object of the same DNP3 object group, you should assign
number 32 as the start index.

Note A table with the SINAUT objects and their index assignments is available in
chapter TD7 object, DNP3 object group and index assignment, link \3\.
Index assignment at S7-1200
In TIA Portal, the index is counted up automatically when creating data points of
the same type. You can also change the index manually. The TIA Portal ensures
that the index is only assigned once per DNP3 object group.

3.5 Group and variation
Group
The DNP3 protocol specifies object groups which in the SINAUT configuration tool
correspond to the data objects. At TIA Portal, the object group is listed under Type
of data point.
Individual items of data or groups of data are addressed via data objects which
differ depending on the data type (binary, analog, command, etc) and send or
receive direction.
Variation
The DNP3 object group specifies the respective data types. Within some data
objects, the variation of the data format specifies the variation of the data format of
the process value. Each object group has a typical set of variations. The most
important variations specify the following data formats:
Counter, binary and analog values: with or without time stamp
Analog value formats: 16 or 32 bit, fixed point number or floating point value
3.6 Implementation level
The DNP3 protocol specifies implementation levels for the implementation of the
protocol for the different DNP3 devices.
Level 1 is the lowest level which only supports the basic functions. Level 2 supports
more groups and variations than level 1. Additionally, level 2 and 3 also support
time stamps and buffering for binary inputs. Level 4 and level 5 additionally support
time stamps and buffering for analog input and counter input.
The DNP3 Device Profile of each DNP3 module includes information on the
highest level supported by this module. When configuring the stations, the highest
implementation level supported by the master must be entered.
3.7 Assignment of terms
In STEP 7V5.5, STEP 7 V12 and in WinCC TeleControl partly different names are
used for the same parameters. In order to facilitate the configuration, a table with
the names of the parameters is available in German and another one in English.

4 Program Overview
In this chapter, the program structure of the application example is described.
The supplied code contains the following files:
for the S7-300 station: STEP 7 V5 project, incl. SINAUT project
for the S7-1200 station: STEP 7 V12 project
for the DNP3 master and the visualization: WinCC project, incl. WinCC
TeleControl project
for the VPN configuration: SCT project and SCALANCE M configuration

4.1 STEP 7 V5 project (S7-300)
Configuring the DNP3 objects does not require any programming in STEP 7, since
the objects are configured in the SINAUT configuration tool. However, since there
are no real measured values and binary data for this example, the data is
simulated in STEP 7. This simulation serves for explaining the function of the
DNP3 protocol and does not reflect a real application.
The structure of the program is displayed in the picture below. The blocks are
described in the STEP 7 comments.

In Set CPU time [FC1], the time in the CPU is described using SET_CLK [SFC0]
In Start/Stop Demo [FC2], the demo is started or terminated at a positive edge of
the respective command by the master.
In Flow Simulation [FC5], the values for the flow rate are simulated. The operator
has the option of entering a setpoint value for the flow rate from the master. In Set
flow [FC3], the setpoint is written in the current value of the flow rate.

Similar to the flow rate for Flow Simulation [FC5], a pressure simulation is
performed at Pressure Simulation [FC4].
In SINAUT_Data [DB1], the PLC tags to be used for the TD7 objects were
specified. The DT-type variable required for setting the CPU time was defined in
Time [DB2].
4.2 STEP 7 V12 project (S7-1200)
As for the S7-300 station, programming in STEP 7 is not necessary for configuring
the DNP3 objects. The data objects are configured in the Data points field in
STEP 7. However, since there are no real measured values and binary data for this
example, the data was simulated in STEP 7. This simulation servers for explaining
the function of the DNP3 protocol and does not reflect a real application.
The structure of the program is displayed in the picture below. The blocks are
described in the STEP 7 comments.

In CP Time [DB1], the PLC tags required for the time synchronization were defined.
The CP Time.CPU time sync cycle tag has a start value of five minutes (300s).
After this time has elapsed, a trigger is set in Timesync [FC1] which writes the
time of the DP in the CPU using the WR_SYS_T Set time-of-day.
In the Oil level [FC5] and Temperature [FC7] blocks, the values for filling level
and temperature are simulated. The tags required for this were defined in
Simulation Data [DB 7].
In CP_Data [DB3], the PLC tags were defined which are used for configuring the
data points.

4.3 WinCC project (DNP3 master)
In SIMATIC WinCC, the configuration of the HMI systems takes place. Additionally,
the configuration of the DNP3 master is performed by the WinCC TeleControl add-
on software. The DNP3 configuration of the master is described in detail in chapter
7. For the process data, one respective folder for each station was created in Tag
Management. The names of the tags need not match those of the objects in the
CPU configuration; however, it is important that the configuration of the objects
matches the configuration in the CPU (group, variation, class etc.).

Figure 4-3


4.4 Overview of the data objects
The following figure gives you an overview of the data points configured in this
application example.
The configured objects in the SINAUT configuration tool dont have names but
numbers.
The assignment of the WinCC objects to the TD7 objects in S7-300 is performed
via:
the DNP3 object group (WinCC) and the TD7 object type (S7-300), see the
table with the assignment of the objects in Figure 3-1.
the index: the index in WinCC must match the index in the SINAUT
configuration tool.
For example, the Flow object in WinCC (group 32, index 0) is the object 4 in
S7-300 (Ana04W_S, Index 0), since the DNP3 group 32 corresponds to the TD7
object type Ana04W_S (see Figure 3-1) and the index for both objects is identical.

In order to facilitate the assignments of the objects in this example, we have
configured them so the order of the objects in the SINAUT configuration tool
matches the order of the objects in WinCC.
Hence, the fourth listed object in WinCC (Flow tag, group 32, index 0)
corresponds to the fourth listed object in the SINAUT configuration tool (object 4,
Ana04W_S, index 0).

For the S7-1200 in this example, the name of the WinCC variable is equal to the
name of the data point in TIA Portal.
The TD7 object type for S7-300, or the data point type for S7-1200, shows which
objects / data points are commands, binary, or analog values. The class shows
whether it relates to data or events.

5 DNP3 Configuration for S7-300
Chapters 5, 6 and 7 show the necessary steps for DNP3 configuration of an
S7-300, an S7-1200 and the WinCC TeleControl (master) in detail. If you only wish
to test the completed configuration, go to chapter 9.
Process data for S7-300
For the S7-300 station, the following process data is displayed in this application:
Commands: StartDemo and StopDemo
Events:
Class 1 binary event: Demostarted (shows the current status of the
demo)
Class 1 analog events: Flow, Set_Flow and Pressure

In order to facilitate the assignment of the DNP3 objects (configured as TD7
objects) to the PLC tags, we have stored the configuration data of the TD7 objects
as comment for the PLC tags. (see SINAUT_Data [DB1] block in the STEP 7
project.)
