1. PREFACE
1.1. INTRODUCTION TO THE DNP3 ROUTER
This manual describes the installation, operation, and diagnostics of the Aparian DNP3
Router. The DNP3 Router provides intelligent data routing between EtherNet/IP and DNP3
(serial, Ethernet UDP, or Ethernet TCP). The DNP3 Router allows the user to integrate DNP3
devices over a secure link into a Rockwell Logix platform (e.g. ControlLogix or CompactLogix)
with minimal effort.
Figure 1.1. – Typical Setup
1.2. FEATURES
The DNP3 Router is able to transfer data from various DNP3 devices to a maximum of three
Logix controllers. The module operates in one of three modes, simplifying the configuration
for all applications.
Mode Description Message Initiator
Reactive Tag The DNP3 Router will convert DNP3 messages to Logix controller tag
reads or tag writes. (DNP3 Outstation) Remote Device
Scheduled Tag The DNP3 Router transfers data between a DNP3 device and a
number of Logix tags, using a preconfigured scheduled.
(DNP3 Master)

No Logix or remote device configuration is required.
Unscheduled The DNP3 Router transfers messages received from a Logix Message
Instruction.
(DNP3 Master)
Logix (Msg)
Table 1.1. – Modes of Operation
The DNP3 Router is configured using the Aparian Slate application. This program can be
downloaded from www.aparian.com free of charge. Slate offers various configuration
methods, including a controller tag browser.
Hereafter the DNP3 Router will be referred to as the module.
The module can operate in both a Logix “owned” and standalone mode. With a Logix
connection the input and output assemblies will provide additional diagnostics information
which will be available in the Logix controller environment.
The DNP3 Router allows the user to integrate DNP3 devices into a Logix system with minimal
effort. No copying or mapping of data in the Logix controller is required as the DNP3 Router
writes directly into Logix tags.
The DNP3 Router also provides DNP3 Secure Authentication 5 which enables the user to
connect DNP3 devices to a Logix platform securely. The module also provides a range of
statistics and traffic analyser to help fault find any problems.
The DNP3 Router supports DNP3 on three ports which can be configured from the Slate
environment; Serial, Ethernet TCP, or Ethernet UDP.
Previously complicated data mapping is made easy by precompiled UDTs which converts the
various DNP3 data formats into sensible data in the Logix environment.
The module uses isolated RS232 for DNP3 serial communication providing better noise
immunity. The RS232 port also uses a terminal block for convenient installation.
A built-in webserver provides detailed diagnostics of system configuration and operation,
including the display of DNP3 operation and communication statistics, without the need for any
additional software.
1.3. ARCHITECTURE
The figure below provides an example of the typical network setup in reactive mode.

Revision 1.15
Figure 1.2. - Example of a typical network setup in reactive mode
By converting and redirecting serial DNP3 messages from legacy devices to EtherNet/IP, the
module provides an interface for data exchange to Allen-Bradley ControlLogix and
CompactLogix platforms. This enables user to replace legacy devices and systems with
minimal effort and downtime.
The DNP3 Router allows a Logix platform to seamlessly integrate into a DNP3 network with
Reactive Tag Mode. The module will route DNP3 message directly to Logix tags with no need
for additional ladder code.

Revision 1.15
Systems that rely on a central ControlLogix communicating to a number of remote DNP3
devices, (e.g. Eletrical Protection Units or Intelligent Relays), may find the DNP3 Router useful
when operating in Scheduled Tag Mode as shown in the image above. The module will
exchange data between the DNP3 device and Logix platform at a configured interval without
any need for additional coding or mapping.
Figure 1.4. – Example of a typical network setup when using secure authentication
The DNP3 Router also provides the latest DNP3 Secure Authentication 5 standard which
allows for secure authentication across the DNP3 network (Serial or Ethernet). The need for
network security is essential to utility installations and operations to prevent unwanted
attacks from outsiders. The DNP3 Router allows the user to configure the type and level of
security needed with minimal effort.

2. INSTALLATION
2.1. MODULE LAYOUT
The module has three ports at the bottom of the enclosure as shown in the figure below. The
ports are used for Ethernet, RS232 serial, and power. The power port uses a three-way
connector which is used for the DC power supply positive and negative (or ground) voltage as
well as the earth connection.
The RS232 port uses a four-way connector. This provides connection for the communication
transmit (TX), receive (RX), and ground (GND) conductors. The fourth connection (earth) is
used for shielding the cable in high noise environments.
The Ethernet cable must be wired according to industry standards which can be found in the
additional information section of this document.
Figure 2.1. – DNP3 Router side and bottom view
The module provides three diagnostic LEDs as shown in the front view figure below. These
LEDs are used to provide information regarding the module system operation, the Ethernet
interface, and the auxiliary communication interface (RS232).
