Customize a Project using Citect​.ini Parameters

Note: At times during the life cycle of a driver, circumstances may call for the creation of specific citect.ini parameters that remain undocumented. Always seek the advice of Technical Support regarding the possible implementation of undocumented parameters before you make any changes to a citect.ini file.

The DNPR parameters are grouped into the following categories:

• Basic Parameters

  The standard set of protocol parameters.

• Logging/Diagnostic Parameters

  Parameters that can assist with troubleshooting.

• Driver-specific Parameters

  Parameters specific to the DNPr driver.

• Peer Redundancy Parameters

  These parameters need only be set if you are using a redundant DNPr system.

• Port-based Parameters

  These parameters are used to manipulate port control.

• Event Processing Parameters

  These parameters control how events are handled.

• Polling Regime Parameters

  These parameters are used to manipulate polling.

• Communication Parameters

  These parameters configure the data link to devices.

• Data Point and Cache Parameters

  These parameters control variations of behavior to some data types, as well as data cache behavior.

• Miscellaneous Parameters

Note: Some parameters can be used to configure behavior that will only apply to units within the same device group. These are represented in the following lists using [<unit>] as the defined Citect.ini section. See Device Group Parameters for more information.
