A master in DNP3 is a component that communicates (requests data) with a single outstation via a communication channel. By default, the master list is empty. To add a new master, click the 'Add' button.
A client in DNP3 is a component that communicates (requests data) with a single outstation via a communication channel. By default, the client list is empty. To add a new client, click the 'Add' button.

A DNP3 <b>request</b> is a way of obtaining data from DNP3 Outstations. The master sends a request to an outstation specifying the function codes to be performed. The outstation then sends the requested data back to the DNP3 master.

The Request Configuration list is empty by default. To add a new Request Configuration look to the Add New Instance section. Enter a custom name into the 'New Configuration Name' field and click the 'Add' button:
