RUGGEDCOM Software | RUGGEDCOM ELAN RUGGEDCOM ELAN UDG solves two common problems when deploying DNP 3.0: 1. Poll latency. Placing an ELAN UDG between masters and high latency RTUs and IEDs allows data to be readily available during the polling cycle. This results in lower overall latency and better network utilization. 2. Multi-host support. Multiple virtual instances of a given field device (a.k.a. Virtual RTU-VRTU) allow for multiple masters to independently communicate with them. The point map is preserved throughout to the master station. It is also possible to have multiple RTUs and...
