Basic settings: Protocol parameters

The behavior of the substation can be adapted to the requirements of the master via the IEC60870-5-104 protocol parameters. Most parameters have preallocated default values that do not have to be changed.

The values of the iK and iW parameters are changed in our example:

IF init THEN 
init := FALSE;
...
F_CreateServerHnd( '', '127.0.0.1'(* change this! *), 2404, nMode := LISTEN_MODE_CLOSEALL OR CONNECT_MODE_ENABLEDBG, bEnable, hServer);

server.protPara.iK := 12;
server.protPara.iW := 8;

ELSE
server( pInputs := ADR( inputs ),
cbInputs := SIZEOF( inputs ),
pOutputs := ADR( outputs ),
...
END_IF
