Conitel 2020

  • The Conitel 2020 protocol was developed by Leeds&Northrup for communication between a SCADA system and RTUs of the same vendor.

    Physical layer encoding is based on 32-bit words.

    Conitel 2020 operates in half-duplex mode following the master/slave principle. A master can communicate with up to 15 RTUs, an RTU only responds to explicit requests by the master.
