You are personally invited to attend:
UU#203 DNP3 in the Real World
Monday, Jan. 23, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Presented by: Donald Downs, Andrew West
Course Description:
This course provides an in-depth look at configuring and using DNP3 in real-world applications. This course material clarifies the configuration parameters used in DNP3 systems; highlights common pitfalls and how to address them; and advises how systems can be configured for optimum performance.
The course also covers topics such as configuration requirements to achieve optimum interoperability and how to maximize efficiency of operation. This course will include a panel of DNP3 Technical Committee members who will share their experiences and present case studies of successful and problematic installations to illustrate correct DNP3 implementations. Attendees are encouraged to submit “real world” scenarios (success stories and/or problematic installations) for discussion by the panel. Suggested case studies may be submitted in advance to admin@dnp.org.
Who should attend this course?
- Engineers and technicians responsible for design, configuration, maintenance and troubleshooting of SCADA systems, communication systems and substation automation systems where DNP3 is planned or is used
- Engineers responsible for design of SCADA and substation automation equipment that uses or will use DNP3
- Integrators responsible for deploying DNP3 systems
- Managers responsible for overseeing either of the above mentioned personnel
