458 <strong>Practical</strong> Modern <strong>SCADA</strong> Protocols: DNP3, <strong>60870</strong>.5 <strong>and</strong> <strong>Related</strong> <strong>Systems</strong><br />

Procedure <strong>and</strong> observations<br />

• Use the Citect screen to verify that the outputs can be turned on <strong>and</strong> off.<br />

• Verify that the inputs are operating correctly.<br />

• Note that the analog inputs show values.<br />

Additional exercise:<br />

If time permits, set up the diagnostic display of RTU <strong>and</strong> use this to observe traffic on the<br />

network.<br />

PRACTICAL SESSION 6<br />

TOPIC: RADIO PATH DESIGN PROBLEM<br />

Overview<br />

It is necessary to consider all the issues from designing the radio system to configuring<br />

the DNP protocol when setting up a complete system. In this exercise we use a radio path<br />

design program to design a radio link.<br />

Equipment required<br />

Procedure<br />

• Notebook computer<br />

• Teledesign software program<br />

Master site<br />

Site A – to co-ordinate the pumping of water from the 5 RTUs; each at an approximate<br />

distance of 40 km away from the master site.<br />

Five RTU’s sites – Boreholes with tanks next to them to temporarily store<br />

the water before pumping it to the master site.<br />

Site B Borehole<br />

Site C Borehole<br />

Site D Borehole<br />

Site E Borehole<br />

Site F Borehole<br />

The path between Site A <strong>and</strong> Site B has the following profile.<br />

0 km 220 m Flat Dry<br />

5 km 150 m Flat Dry<br />

10 km 120 m Flat Dry<br />

15 km 120 m Flat Dry<br />

20 km 130 m Flat Dry<br />

25 km 130 m Flat Dry<br />

30 km 110 m Flat Dry<br />

35 km 120 m Flat Dry<br />

40 km 150 m Flat Dry
