Using the Express Communications Wizard

To set up communication using the Plant SCADA Express Communications Wizard, you will need to provide an Address, an IP address and Port number.

• Address

  The address to use for an IEC 870-5-104 device is the common ADSU address. This value is configured on the device and will be a number between 1 and 65535.

• IP address

  The IP address of the device.

• Port

  The default port number for the IEC 870-5-104 protocol is 2404.

Note: It is recommended you use TCP protocol when setting up an IEC 870-5-104 device.

This information is placed in the Special Options field of the Ports settings by the Express Communications Wizard using the following format:

—I<device IP address> —P<port number> —<T (TCP)>

For example:
—I192.1.1.182—P2404 —T
