Frozen Counter Points for WITS Field Devices
The WITS-DNP3 standard does not cover frozen counter points. However, you can use DNP3 Frozen Counter Points with WITS Field Devices, if they are supported by the Field Device.
A DNP3 Frozen Counter Point provides a mechanism for taking a ‘snap-shot’ of the current value of a DNP3 Counter—the Frozen Counter continues to hold the same value, while the Counter continues to count.
You can configure the properties of a DNP3 Frozen Counter Point using the fields on the DNP3 Frozen Counter Point Form.
For more information, see Configuring DNP3 Counter Points.
