Implementation is, according to the IEC870-5-101 standard, as follows:
- Originator The originator ASDU address is not present.
- ASDU address is 1 byte, it is defined as the station address. ASDU addresses of all stations on one line must be different.
- Cause The cause of transmission is 1 byte (does not contain the Originator ASDU address).
- Information The information object address is 2 bytes, it is defined as an I/O tag address.
...
If you require the system-redundant communication, use the line category SerialOverUDP SerialOverUDP System&Line Redundant or Serial System&Line Redundant line categories. Providing that, this communication should be also network redundant, enter "Secondary line" for both "A System" and "B System". This configuration then works in such a way that it concurrently sends and receives data from two systems and each is network-redundantly connected in compliance with the so-called Norwegian convention (Norwegian IEC 870-5-101 User Conventions).

- Communication protocol "IEC 870-5-101 balanced", "IEC 870-5-101 unbalanced primary (Master)" or "IEC 870-5-101 unbalanced secondary (Slave)".
- Station The station address is a decimal number in the range 0 - 255 and is used in the protocol as the ASDU address. It can be specified as a decimal number or as a hexadecimal number with a hash at the beginning (e.g. #0A).
- The synchronization of the station realThe synchronization of the station real-time may be enabled also for the protocols "master" and "balanced - station A (controlling)". Set the synchronization period to a nonzero value. The synchronization is executed by ASDU 103 "Clock synchronization command" in the local time according to settings of the D2000 System.

The Browse button opens a browsing dialog for the station address. If the communication is functional, a dialog with the ASDU addresses received so far is displayed. The Refresh button can be used to clear the list of received ASDU addresses.

| srmast | System Redundancy: Manages A Status AddressAddress of station and output I/O tag with the status of system redundancy. Format of the address is Station Address, I/O tag address, for example. "1,1003". Parameter is useful for SerialOverUDP System&Line Redundant lines, which enable the communication with two independent control systems (e.g. main dispatching SED in Žilina and backup dispatching SED in Bratislava). Parameter enables to ignore values that are received from the control system, which is inactive just now, providing that the application knows which one is active or inactive. It can know it e.g. based on the value of input I/O tag with defined value. This feature (information about active control system) will work providing that station with output I/O tag of Dout type exist with the same addresses as is defined in this parameter and the application must write True into it if "System A" is active, or False if "System B" (configured on the system redundant line) is active. | - | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

- if bit IV (Invalid) is set, the status of value will be Invalid
- if one of bits the NT (Not topical), SB (Substituted), BL (Blocked), OV (Overflow), CA (Counter adjusted), or CY (Counter overflow) is set for proper bits are set in their respective ASDU types, the status of value will be Weak.

Note 2: When using the system and line redundant categories of lines, the status of line and station is formed by a logical sum of all used lines. It means, that if the redundant system consists of four lines and just one line is working, the status of the station and line is all right. The status of lines is presented with the help of special input or output I/O tag (of integer and real type, i.e. Ai/Ao/Ci/Co). The name of this I/O tag has this format: [line_name]_SystemStatus (e.g. for line L.Test it is M.Test_SystemStatus). The value of the I/O tag represents the binary format of the status of N-tuple lines. If the first three lines are okay but the last one does not work (SystemB/SecondaryLine) i.e. [FALSE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE], I/O tag has the value 0b0111, i.e. 7.
The order of lines mapped to individual bits is [SystemB/SecondaryLine, SystemB/PrimaryLine, SystemA/SecondaryLine, SystemA/PrimaryLine].
Browse
For the I/O tags, it is possible to discover the list of objects, as long as the KOM process is running and communication with a station is established.
Clicking the Browse button opens the IEC870-5-101 Item Browser window and displays a list of objects that have been read so far. The object list is created dynamically as a result of received messages.
The list of objects is dynamic, i.e. when a new value arrives in the KOM process, it is updated. Filtering in individual columns is also supported, asterisks can be used in the mask (e.g. *Short*).
Double-clicking on a particular line will cause the Address parameter to be inserted into the configuration of the I/O tag from which the IEC870-5-101 Item Browser window was opened.
The Refresh button clears the list of values in both the CNF and the KOM process.
The Value column contains the received value.

It means, that if the redundant system consists of four lines and just one line is working, status of station and line is all right. The status of lines is presented with the help of special output I/O tag (of integer and real type). Name of this I/O tag has this format: [name of line]_SystemStatus (e.g. for line L.Test it is M.Test_SystemStatus). The value of I/O tag represents binary format of status of N-tuple lines.
