See DNP3 Configuration for information regarding common configuration items for the DNP3 device family. This page only documents items that are exclusive to DNP3 FBx devices.

Because Emerson FBx devices don't support direct operate control writes, the Use select-operate for control writes option must be checked in order to perform control writes on an Emerson FBx device. See DNP3 Configuration for more information.
