Appendix A.1.3. Configure DIP switches S0 – S3

The S0 - S3 DIP switch selection is read directly into a Data Array. This Data Array value can be used for customized operations such as config file selection which allows a FieldServer to be loaded with several configurations / profiles that are selected based on a Data Array value. See the example below where a Config Table and Dynamic

Parameter can be used in conjunction with the DIP Switches to achieve this type of customization. .

In this example, 5 configs will need to be downloaded to the QuickServer: config.csv (base config), profile1.csv, profile2.csv, profile3.csv and profile4.csv. The profile configs will be configured as per FieldServer standard configuration templates. The base config will be used to select the appropriate profile config to load.

Similarly values larger than 4 will be ignored.




Appendix A.2. RS-422 Connection R2 Port (Only available on the FS-QS-12XX models)

RS422 is a full duplex multi-drop multi-master differential bus. It can be wired to conform to a RS-485 network when less wiring/cabling is used (due to being less expensive to install), but then it becomes a half-duplex multidrop multi-master differential bus. RS-422 is used for dedicated peer to peer high speed communication when low bus latency is required i.e. very few devices on the bus. Its usage is very specific to client installations/requirements.

Notes:



The RS-232 looks similar to the RS-485 but does not have the blue jumper. The blue jumper is used to enable the termination resistor for the RX signals (120 ohms), while the red jumpers are used to enable the bias resistors for RX signals (510 ohms). In the case of Rockwell/Tetrapak, all jumpers are always required to be in default position i.e. not enabled. For other clients, the bias resistors should always be in the on state.



The Part number on the back of the box will identify the port..




Appendix A.2.1. Connection and Operation of the RS-422 QuickServer

RS422 connector:

5-pin RS-422

Connector

3-pin Power

Connector

Pin 1-2: TX +/- (Differential TX outputs: All + signals must be connected to each other, and same applies to - signals; no +/- signals may be crossed)

Pin 3-4: RX +/- (Differential RX inputs: All + signals must be connected to each other, and same applies to - signals, no +/- signals may be crossed)

Pin 5: SHD (Shield connection, must be connected on at least one side of the bus, but not necessarily on both sides)

POWER connector:

Please note that AC voltage is not supported on the RS-422 Carrier, and that DC voltage range is ~20VDC to

~28VDC.

Pin 1: +24V (DC power requires this pin be used for the positive voltage)

Pin 2: 0V (DC power requires this pin is used for ground / return voltage)

Pin 3: FG (This pin needs to be connected to EARTH or noise free reference point i.e. CHASSIS)




Appendix A.3. KNX Connection R2 Port

The KNX QuickServer is used to transfer data to and from devices using KNX protocol. The KNX driver enables data access from KNX networks to other FieldServer protocols. Most KNX data-point types are supported, allowing communication to almost any kind of KNX device in an installation, such as temperature sensors, shutters, light switches, actuators, alarms, etc. This allows BMS systems to access a KNX network using direct read and write or with KNX configured groups. This setup does not require the use of ETS4 to configure the QuickServer KNX gateway. The KNX protocol is a connectionless protocol and therefore supports multiple clients and multiple servers. The QuickServer is intended to act as a Passive Client on the KNX bus and makes information available to other protocols.

KNX+ KNX- No Connection

The KNX Connection consist of a KNX + and KNX- terminal. Each terminal corresponds to the red KNX+ and gray

KNX- bus connections on a KNX bus.


4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200




Appendix A.4. M-Bus Connection R2 Port

The M-Bus driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices using M-Bus protocol. The Fieldbus connection is included with the FieldServer. The M-Bus QuickServer Gateway is configurable to act as both a

Master and a Slave M-Bus device.

The M-Bus Connection consist of a + and – terminal. Most M-Bus Devices are not polarity sensitive, although the polarity of the M-Bus connection is indicated on the device diagram, should it be a requirement. The M-Bus devices communicating with the FieldServer must be configured according to the manufacturer’s instructions (e.g.

Primary address and readout data).

Appendix A.5. Enhanced Network Security

For enhanced network security, one can disable RuiNet access to a FS-GUI capable FieldServer by use of the

RUI_Enable FieldServer parameter. Adding the following to the configuration file will disable RuiNet Access.

FieldServer

Title , RUI_Enable

FieldServer Name , Disabled // Enabled -- is the default if not specified

Note: In order to take a FieldServer Diagnostics log, RuiNet access has to be enabled again.




Appendix B Troubleshooting Tips

Appendix B.1. Communicating with the QuickServer over the Network



Confirm that the network cabling is correct.



Confirm that the computer network card is operational and correctly configured.



Confirm that there is an Ethernet adapter installed in the PC’s Device Manager List, and that it is configured to run the TCP/IP protocol.



Check that the IP netmask of the PC matches the QuickServer. The Default IP Address of the QuickServer is

192.168.2.X, Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. o Go to Start|Run o Type in “ipconfig” o The account settings should be displayed. o Ensure that the IP address is 102.168.2.X and the netmask 255.255.255.0



Ensure that the PC and QuickServer are on the same IP Network, or assign a Static IP Address to the PC on the

192.168.2.0 network.



If using Windows XP or later, ensure that the firewall is disabled.



Ensure that all other Ethernet cards active on the PC, especially wireless adapters are disabled.



Refer to the FieldServer Troubleshooting Guide which can be found at www.fieldserver.com/QS_Support/ for further information

Appendix B.2. Technical support

Before contacting Technical support to report an issue, go to Start|Programs|FieldServer utilities|Tools and run the FST_Diag program. Take a log (See ENote0058 in the folder called Library on the USB Flash Drive). Send this log together with a detailed description of the problem to [email protected] for evaluation.

Note that while all necessary documentation is shipped with the FieldServer on the USB flash drive, these documents are constantly being updated. Newer versions may be available on the web at www.fieldserver.com/QS_Support/

Appendix B.3. Notes Regarding Subnets and Subnet Masks

Please Note that RFC standards allocate the IP address range of 192.0.0.0 through to 223.255.255.255 to be used in Class-C subnetting (i.e.: Subnets listed as 255.255.255.xxx, where xxx can vary based on filtering required).

Consequently, the IP stack for this product will not allow any IP addresses in this range to be allocated a subnet that does not fall within the Class C range.
