For firmware versions prior to 7.80 only, select "No Time (16-bit)" events if the DNP3 static object
configuration for counters is 16-bit. If any points are configured for 32-bit DNP3 static counter objects,
select "No Time (32-bit)".
For firmware versions 7.80 and later, the RTU automatically determines 16-bit or 32-bit event size for
each counter point, based on its configured DNP3 static object data size. Select either "No Time (16bit)" or "No Time (32-bit)".
32-bit counter events with no time are sent as DNP3 Group 22 Variation 1 objects.
16-bit counter events with no time are sent as DNP3 Group 22 Variation 2 objects.
