Chapter 4: Configuring Win for the Serial
Status DCA
This chapter describes how to configure the WIN application to work with the Serial Status
DCA. The WIN application allocates the WESDAC data points for all applications. In order to
work properly the Serial Status DCA must have its own record within the WIN application's
System Point Database. This record is referenced by the DCA Offset specified in the Main
Application configuration table. Additional information on configuring WIN can be found in the
WIN Configuration Guide listed in the Additional Documentation section of this document.
4.1 WESDAC Point Allocation
The Serial Status DCA requires the following number of points. Additional points configured
will be initialized, but will never come on-line or be used by the Serial Status DCA.
Digital Inputs: 15 per configured SRU
Digital Outputs: 1 per configured SRU
Device Status: 1 per configured SRU
For more information on the order of the configured points, refer to the Serial
Status DCA Functional Specification listed in the Additional Documentation.
