Revised July-2017 General Information 1-1


ROC800 or

ROC800L?

The ROC800-Series are principally designed to measure the flow of natural gas in accordance with AGA and other standards. Firmware and user programs enhance that functionality.

To meet market demands, Remote Automation Solutions initially developed user programs to perform flow calculations for certain liquids. These programs grew to encompass flow and volume corrections for most liquid hydrocarbons (as defined by the API in the

Manual for Petroleum Measurement Systems, or MPMS). Finally, to modularize these capabilities and ensure the integrity of the AGA calculations, we developed a suite of user programs enabled by a license key.

This chapter details the structure of this manual and provides an overview of the ROC800 and its components.

The ROC800 is a microprocessor-based controller that provides the functions required for a variety of field automation applications. It is ideal for applications requiring general logic and sequencing control; historical data archiving; multiple communication ports; Proportional,

Integral, and Derivative (PID) control; and flow measurement on up to twelve meter runs.

Index Provides an alphabetic listing of items and topics contained in this manual.

1.2 Series 1 versus Series 2 Architecture

The Series 2 ROC800 architecture incorporates a redesigned CPU module and redesigned expansion I/O backplanes to provide major system advancements. These include an increase in processor speed

(from 50MHz to 65MHz), an increase in SRAM for User C programs

(20K to 100K), an increase in flash memory (4Mb to 16Mb), an increase in DRAM (8Mb to 16Mb), and greater general flexibility in module placement. For easy visual identification, the printed circuit board (PCB) for the Series 2 CPU module, the PCB for the Series 2 base unit and expansion backplanes, and the Series 2 ROC800 ABS plastic housing are all black. Additionally, the Series 2 CPU module is labeled

CPU Series 2 (see Figure 1-1 ).

Note

:

In the Series 1 ROC800, the PCBs for the CPU module, the base unit, and the backplanes are green; the ABS plastic housing is gray.

What’s

Compatible?

In the Series 2 ROC827, you cannot insert a Series 1 CPU module into a Series 2 base unit or attach Series 1 expansion backplanes to

Series 2 base units or expansion backplanes. Firmware is not available to upgrade a Series 1 CPU module to the new functionally. To obtain the Series 2 enhancements, you must obtain and use a Series 2 CPU module.

The architecture of the ROC809’s fixed backplane allows you to insert a black Series 2 CPU module into a Series 1 (green) backplane. However, firmware is not available to upgrade a Series 1 CPU module to the new functionality. To obtain the Series 2 enhancements, you must obtain and use a Series 2 CPU module.

Note

:

The ROC800L functions only on the Series 2 hardware platform.

Module Placement Table 1-1 compares module placement in the ROC809, based on the installation of a Series 1 or Series 2 CPU. Table 1-2 compares module placement in the ROC827, based on the installation of a Series 1 or

Series 2 CPU.

ROC800 . For further information on compatibility and migration issues, refer to the Remote Automation Solutions Technical

Support White Paper WP0800004R1 .

1.3 Hardware

The ROC809 and ROC827 are highly innovative and versatile units with an integrated backplane to which the central processor unit (CPU), power input module, communication modules, and I/O modules connect. The ROC809 (see Figure 1-1 ) has nine module slots, of which three can house communication modules. The ROC827 base unit

(shown on the left-hand side of Figure 1-2 ) has three I/O module slots.

The ROC800-Series expansion backplanes (EXPs) attach to the

ROC827 base unit (see Figure 1-2 ). Each EXP provides six additional

I/O module slots. The ROC827 can support up to four EXPs, for a total of 27 I/O module slots (six slots per EXP plus the three I/O slots on the

ROC827 base unit).

The ROC800s use a Power Input module to convert external input power to the voltage levels required by the electronics and to monitor voltage levels to ensure proper operation. Three Power Input modules—

12 Volts dc (PM-12), 24 Volts dc (PM-24), and 30 Volts dc (PM-30)— are available. For more information on the Power Input modules, refer to Chapter 3, Power Connections .

The ROC800s support a variety of communication protocols: ROC Plus,

Modbus, Modbus TCP/IP, Modbus encapsulated in TCP/IP, and

Modbus with Electronic Flow Measurement (EFM) extensions.

Figure 1-1 shows the housing, typical I/O modules, and communication modules installed in a ROC809. The patented ABS (Acrylonitrile

Butadiene Styrene) plastic housing has wire covers to protect the wiring terminals. The housing includes DIN rail mounts for mounting the unit on a panel or in a user-supplied enclosure. Patent 6,771,513 covers the

ROC800 enclosure (refer to www.uspto.gov

).

Fieldbus

Interface

The design of ROC800-Series communications and I/O modules supports “hot-swapping” (replacing similar modules in the same slot) and “hot-plugging” (inserting modules into an empty slot) while the

ROC800 is powered. However, it is a good safety practice with any electrical device to first remove power before you make internal connections. If you find it necessary to hot-swap or hot-plug a module, first review the most current specification sheet for that module to ensure both your safety and the integrity of data that module may provide.

The F

OUNDATION

Fieldbus Interface (FFI) is a ROC800-based solution that enables a ROC800 to support bi-directional multi-drop digital communications between fieldbus devices.

While you can implement the FFI as a stand-alone device, you can also install it as an integral part of the ROC827 housing, since the FFI is based on a standard Series 2 EXP. However, the FFI does not expand the I/O capability of the ROC827 beyond the 27 module-limit.

For technical information on the FFI, refer to the technical specifications ROC800:FFI or the F OUNDATION Fieldbus Interface

Instruction Manual (part D301461X012). For information about the software you use to configure the FFI, refer to the Field Interface

Configurator User Manual (part D301575X012).



1.3.1 Central Processor Unit (CPU)

The CPU contains the microprocessor, the firmware, connectors to the backplane, the three built-in communication ports (two with LEDs), a

LED low power wakeup button, a RESET button, the application license key connectors, a STATUS LED indicating system integrity, and the main processor.

CPU components include:

▪

32-bit Motorola MPC862 Quad Integrated Communications

Controller (PowerQUICC) PowerPC processor. Bus clock frequency at 65 MHz with a watchdog timer.

▪

Flash ROM (Read-Only Memory).

▪ SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory).

▪

▪

Ethernet Comm1 port.

1.3.2 Real-Time Clock (RTC)

You can set the ROC800’s real-time clock (RTC) for year, month, day, hour, minute, and second. The clock provides time stamping of the database values. The battery-backed clock firmware tracks the day of the week and corrects for leap year. The time chip automatically switches to backup power when the ROC800 loses primary input power.

The internal Sanyo 3-volt CR2430 lithium battery provides backup for the data and the RTC when the main power is not connected. The battery has a one-year minimum backup life with the battery installed, the jumper disengaged, and no power applied to the ROC800. The battery has a ten-year backup life with the backup battery installed and power applied to the ROC800 or when the battery is removed from the

ROC800.

Note

:

If the real-time clock does not keep the current time when you remove power, replace the lithium battery.

1.3.3 Diagnostic Monitoring

The ROC800 has diagnostic inputs incorporated into the circuitry for monitoring system integrity. Use ROCLINK 800 software to access the

System Analog Inputs (on the directory tree, double-click I/O , System

Analog Input , and #1, Battery to open the System Analog Input screen). Refer to Table 1-3 .

1.3.4 Options

The ROC800 allows you to choose from a wide variety of options to suit many applications.

Optional communication modules include EIA-232 (RS-232) serial communications, EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) serial communications,

Multi-Variable Sensor (MVS), dial-up modem communications, and the

HART module (refer to Chapter 5, Communications ).

Each MVS module can provide power and communications for up to six

MVS sensors (refer to Chapter 5, Communications ).

Optional I/O modules include Analog Inputs (AI), Analog Outputs

(AO), Discrete Inputs (DI), Discrete Outputs (DO), Discrete Output

Relays (DOR), Pulse Inputs (PI), Resistance Temperature Detector

(RTD) Inputs, Thermocouple (T/C) Inputs, Advanced Pulse (APM), and

Alternating Current I/O (ACIO) (refer to Chapter 4, Input/Output

Modules ).

The optional application license keys provide extended functionality, such as the use of the DS800 Development Suite Software (the IEC

61131-3 compliant programming environment) and various user programs, and enable embedded meter runs. For example, you need to install a license key with the proper license in the ROC800 to perform

AGA calculations. Refer to Section 1.6, DS800 Development Suite

Software .

The Local Operator Interface (LOI local port) communications terminal requires the installation of an LOI cable between the ROC800 and your

PC. The LOI port uses an RJ-45 connector with a standard EIA-232

(RS-232D) pin out.



1.4 FCC Information

This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. Etched on the modem assembly is, among other information, the FCC certification number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company.

This module has an FCC-compliant telephone modular plug. The module is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises’ wiring using a compatible modular jack that is Part 68compliant.

The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call.

Typically, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). Contact the local telephone company to determine the total number of devices that may be connected to a line (as determined by the total RENs).

If this equipment and its dial-up modem causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. However, if advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. In addition, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it necessary.

The telephone company may make changes to its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice so you can make the necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

If you experience trouble with this equipment or the dial-up modem, contact Emerson Process Management’s Remote Automation Solutions

1.5 Firmware

ROC800 or ROC800L

The firmware that resides in Flash Read-Only Memory (ROM) contains the operating system, ROC Plus communications protocol, and application software. The CPU module provides battery-backed Static

Random Access Memory (SRAM) for saving configurations, storing events, alarms, and the historical logs.

The ROC800-Series supports either of two sets of firmware. The original ROC800 firmware is designed primarily to support gas flow measurements. The ROC800L firmware is designed to support both liquids and gas flow measurements.



Note

:

To convert a ROC800 to a ROC800L, refer to the ROC800L

Field Conversion Guide (part D301683X012 ).

RTOS

TLP

The ROC800-Series Operating System firmware provides a complete operating system for the ROC800. The firmware in the ROC800 is field-upgradeable using a serial connection or the Local Operator

Interface (LOI) local port. For more information, refer to the ROCLINK

800 Configuration Software User Manual (for ROC800-Series) (part

D301250X012) or the ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User

Manual (for ROC800L) (part D301246X012)

The firmware supports:

▪

Input/Output Database.

▪ Historical Database.

▪

Event and Alarm Log Databases.

▪

Applications (PID, AGA, FST, and such).

▪

Measurement Station Support.

▪ Determining Task Execution.

▪

Real-Time Clock.

▪

Establishing and Managing Communications.

▪

Self-Test Capability.

The firmware makes extensive use of configuration parameters, which you configure using ROCLINK 800 software.

The ROC800-Series firmware uses a pre-emptive, multi-tasking, message-based Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) with hardwaresupported memory protection. Tasks are assigned priorities and, at any given time, the operating system determines which task will run. For instance, if a lower priority task is executing and a higher priority task needs to run, the operating system suspends the lower priority task, allows the higher priority task to run to completion, then resumes the lower priority task’s execution. This is more efficient than a “time sliced” architecture type.

The ROC800 reads data from and writes data to data structures called

“points.” A “point” is a ROC Plus Protocol term for a grouping of individual parameters (such as information about an I/O channel) or some other function (such as a flow calculation). Points are defined by a collection of parameters and have a numerical designation that defines the type of point (for example, point type 101 refers to a

Discrete Input and point type 103 refers to an Analog Input).

The logical number indicates the physical location for the I/O or the logical instance for non-I/O points within the ROC800. Parameters are individual pieces of data that relate to the point type. For instance, the raw A/D value and the low scaling value are parameters associated with the Analog Input point type, 103. The point type attributes define the



I/O Database

SRBX

Protocols database point to be one of the possible types of points available to the system.

Together, these three components—the type (T), the logical (L), and the parameters (P)—can be used to identify specific pieces of data that reside in a ROC800’s data base. Collectively, this three-component address is often called a “TLP.”

The Input/Output database contains the input and output points the operating system firmware supports, including the System Analog

Inputs, Multi-Variable Sensor (MVS) inputs, and Input/Output (I/O) modules. The firmware automatically determines the point type and point number location of each installed I/O module. It then assigns each input and output to a point in the database and includes userdefined configuration parameters for assigning values, statuses, or identifiers. The firmware scans each input, placing the values into the respective database point. These values are available for display and historical archiving.

Spontaneous-Report-by-Exception (SRBX or RBX) communication allows the ROC800 to monitor for alarm conditions and, upon detecting an alarm, automatically reports the alarm to a host computer.

Any kind of communications link—dial-up modem or serial line—can perform SRBX as long as the host is set up to receive field-initiated calls.

The firmware supports both the ROC Plus protocol and the Modbus master and slave protocol. ROC Plus protocol can support serial communications and radio or telephone modem communications to local or remote devices, such as a host computer.

The firmware also supports the ROC Plus protocol over TCP/IP on the

Ethernet port. The ROC Plus protocol is similar to the ROC

300/400/500 protocol, since it used many of the same opcodes.

For more specific information refer to the ROC Plus Protocol

Specifications Manual (part D301180X012) or the ROC800L Protocol

Specifications Manual (part D301659X012), or contact your local sales representative.

The ROC800-Series firmware also supports Modbus protocol as either master or slave device using Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) or American

Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) modes. This allows you to easily integrate the ROC800 into other systems. Extensions to the

Modbus protocol allow the retrieval of history, event, and alarm data in

Electronic Flow Metering (EFM) Measurement applications.

Note

:

In Ethernet mode, the firmware supports Modbus both in master and slave mode.

The Ethernet port supports up to six ROC Plus connections, six

Modbus Slave connections, and one Modbus Master connection all at the same time.



1-14

Security

Input Module

Addressing

The ROCLINK 800 software also secures access to the ROC800. You can define and store a maximum of 16 case-sensitive user identifiers

(User IDs). In order for the ROC800 to communicate, a case sensitive log-on ID supplied to the ROCLINK 800 software must match one of the IDs stored in the ROC800.

The operating system firmware supports the application-specific firmware supplied in the Flash ROM. The application firmware includes

Proportional, Integral, and Derivative (PID) Control; FSTs;

Spontaneous-Report-By-Exception (SRBX) Communications

Enhancement; optional American Gas Association (AGA) Flow calculations with station support; and optional IEC 61131-3 language programs (using DS800 Development Suite software). Applications reside in the firmware, so you do not need to re-build and download the firmware for changes in calculation method.

The Series 1 ROC800 defaults to 16-point addressing, but automatically switches to 8-point addressing if you add a fourth or fifth expansion backplane.

The Series 2 ROC800 defaults to 8-point addressing. To switch to 16point addressing, you must manually select this option.

Note

:

To change input module addressing, select ROC > Device

Information in ROCLINK 800. On the Device Information screen’s General tab, select either

8-Points Per Module or 16-

Points Per Module in the Logical Compatibility Mode frame and click Apply .

The difference between 16-point and 8-point addressing becomes critical when you have a host device reading data from specific TLPs.

For example, under 16-point addressing, channel 2 for a DI module in slot 2 is referenced by TLP 101,33,3. Under 8-point addressing, channel

2 for a DI module in slot 2 is referenced by TLP 101,17,23. Table 1-4 illustrates the difference between 8-point and 16-point addressing.

The ROC800L firmware provides many of the same capabilities as the

ROC800 firmware. We recommend, however, that the ROC800L supports only six gas runs (using a single AGA key). History stored in firmware is limited to measurements from gas meter runs, rather than liquids. Software supports most liquid-related capabilities; other firmware functions remain the same.

1.5.1 Historical Database and Event & Alarm Log

The historical database provides archiving of measured and calculated values for either on-demand viewing or saving to a file. It provides an historical record in accordance with API Chapter 21.1. You can configure each of up to 240 points in the historical database to archive values under various schemes, such as averaging or accumulating, as appropriate for the type of database point.

The historical database is maintained in 13 segments (0-12). You can configure each segment in the database to archive selected points at specified time intervals. The segments can continuously archive or can be turned on and off.

Note

:

Configure gas meter history in segments 1-12, where a segment number corresponds to a station number (meter history for station 1 in segment 1, and so on). This allows configuration changes to trigger archive records in accordance with API 2.1 guidelines.

You can distribute history points among history segments 1 through 12 and the general history segment. For each history segment, you can configure the number of periodic history values archived, the frequency of archiving periodic values, the number of daily values archived, and the contract hour. The number of minute values is fixed at 60. The 240 points provide a total of over 224,000 entries (equal to more than 35 days of 24-hour data for 240 points).

The Event Log records the last 450 parameter changes, power on and off cycles, calibration information, and other system events. The event



ROC800L is recorded along with a date and time stamp. The Alarm Log records the last 450 configured occurrences of alarms (set and clear). You can view the logs, save them to a disk file, or print them using ROCLINK

800 software.

To accommodate NIST Handbook 44 (HB 44) requirements, the firmware in the ROC800L tracks up to 1000 weights and measures

(W&M) events.

1.5.2 Meter Runs and Stations

You can group similarly configured meter runs into stations, which provide great benefits during configuration and reporting. You can also configure each meter run, which eliminates redundant meter run data within a station and enables faster data processing.

You can group meter runs among the maximum of twelve stations in any combination. Meter runs belong in the same station when they have the same gas composition data and calculation methods. Stations allow you to:

▪

Set contract hours differently for each station.

▪

Designate several individual meter runs as part of a station.

▪

Configure one to twelve meter runs for each station.

Note

:

For the ROC800L, you configure runs and stations using the individual user programs.

1.5.3 ROC800 Flow Calculations

For the ROC800, gas and liquid calculation methods include:

▪

AGA and API Chapter 21 compliant for AGA linear and differential meter types.

▪

AGA 3 – Orifice Plates for gas.

▪ AGA 7 – Turbine Meters (ISO 9951) for gas.

▪

AGA 8 – Compressibility for Detailed (ISO 12213-2), Gross I (ISO

12213-3), and Gross II for gas.

▪

ISO 5167 – Orifice Plates for liquid.

▪

API 12 – Turbine Meters for liquid.

ROC800 firmware completes full calculations every second on all configured runs (up to 12) for AGA 3, AGA 7, AGA 8, ISO 5167, and

ISO 9951.

AGA 3 calculations conform to the methods described in American Gas

Association Report No. 3, Orifice Metering of Natural Gas and Other

Related Hydrocarbon Fluids. Based on the second and third editions, the calculation method is 1992 AGA 3.



The AGA 7 calculations conform to methods described in American

Gas Association Report No. 7, Measurement of Gas by Turbine Meters, and use the AGA 8 method for determining the compressibility factor.

The AGA 8 method calculates the compressibility factor based on the physical chemistry of the component gasses at specified temperatures and pressures.

The firmware supports liquid calculation methods ISO 5167 and API

12. You must supply factors for API 12 correction through a Function

Sequence Table (FST) or user program. For more information, refer to the Function Sequence Table (FST) User Manual (part D301058X012).

Note

1.5.5 Automatic Self Tests

The operating system firmware supports diagnostic tests on the ROC800 hardware, such as RAM integrity, Real-Time Clock operation, input power voltage, board temperature, and watchdog timer.



The ROC800 periodically performs the following self-tests:

▪

Voltage tests (battery low and battery high) ensure the ROC800 has enough power to run. The ROC800 operates with 12 Volts dc

(nominal) power provided through a PM-12, PM-24, or PM-30 power input module (see Figures 3-1, 3-2, or 3-3 ). The LED at the top of each module lights when you apply input power with the proper polarity and startup voltage. For the PM-12 module, apply

9.00 to 11.25 volts DC to the BAT+/BAT- connectors; for the PM-

24 module, apply 20 to 30 volts DC to the POWER INPUT

+/POWER INPUT – connectors; and for the PM-30 module, apply

10.5 to 30.0 volts DC to the POWER INPUT +/POWER INPUT – connectors.

▪

The CPU controls the software “watchdog.” This watchdog checks the software for validity every 2.7 seconds. If necessary, the processor automatically resets.

▪

The ROC800 monitors Multi-Variable Sensor(s), if applicable, for accurate and continuous operation.

▪

A memory validity self-test is performed to ensure the integrity of memory.

1.5.6 Low Power Modes

The ROC800 uses low power operation under predetermined conditions and supports two low power modes, Standby and Sleep.

▪

Standby

The ROC800 uses this mode during periods of inactivity. When the operating system cannot find a task to run, the ROC800 enters

Standby mode. This mode keeps all peripherals running and is transparent to the user. The ROC800 wakes from Standby mode when it needs to perform a task.

▪ Sleep

The ROC800 uses this mode if it detects a low battery voltage. The

System AI Battery Point Number 1 measures the battery voltage and compares it to the LoLo Alarm limit associated with this point. (The default value for the LoLo Alarm limit is 10.6 Volts dc.) When in

Sleep mode, AUX sw

is turned off. For information on configuring alarms and System AI points, refer to the ROCLINK 800



Manual (for ROC800L) (part D301246X012).

Notes

:

▪

Sleep mode applies only to ROC800s using the 12 V dc Power

Input module (PM-12).



▪

The design of the PM-30 and PM-24 power modules does not include the low voltage cutoff feature present in the PM-12 module: should power fall below the set LoLo alarm (a default of 10.1V), the PM-12 module ceases to provide power to the backplane. Thus, the module shuts down CPU operations. For the PM-24 and PM-30 modules, when power falls below the

LoLo alarm point, the CPU goes into sleep mode. In sleep mode, the backplane still receives power, the DO modules continue to hold their logic, but nothing controls I/O at this point. If you need both the increased power capacity offered by the PM-30 and low voltage cutoff, refer to the options provided in the description of the PM-30 module in Chapter 3 of this manual.

1.5.7 Proportional, Integral, and Derivative (PID)

The PID Control applications firmware provides Proportional, Integral, and Derivative (PID) gain control for the ROC800 and enables the stable operation of 16 PID loops that employ a regulating device, such as a control valve.

The firmware sets up an independent PID algorithm (loop) in the

ROC800. The PID loop has its own user-defined input, output, and override capability.

The typical use for PID control is to maintain a Process Variable at a setpoint. If you configure PID override control, the primary loop is normally in control of the regulating device. When the change in output for the primary loop becomes less or greater (user-definable) than the change in output calculated for the secondary (override) loop, the override loop takes control of the regulating device. When the switchover conditions are no longer met, the primary loop regains control of the device. Parameters are also available to force the PID into either loop or force it to stay in one loop.

1.5.8 Function Sequence Table (FST)

The Function Sequence Table (FST) applications firmware gives analog and discrete sequencing control capability to the ROC800. This programmable control is implemented in an FST, which defines the actions the ROC800 performs using a series of functions. You use the

FST Editor in ROCLINK 800 software to develop FSTs

The function is the basic building block of an FST. You organize functions in a sequence of steps to form a control algorithm. Each function step can consist of a label, a command, and associated arguments. Use labels to identify functions and allow branching to specific steps within an FST. You select commands from a library of mathematical, logical, and other command options. Command names consist of up to three characters or symbols. Finally, arguments provide access to process I/O points and retrieve real-time values. A function may have zero, one, or two arguments.



The FST Editor provides a workspace into which you can enter—for each FST— either a maximum of 500 lines or a maximum of 3000 bytes. Since the total amount of memory each FST uses is based on the number of steps and the commands used in each step and since different commands consume different amounts of memory, estimating the memory usage of an FST is difficult. Only after compiling an individual

FST can you conclusively know its memory usage.

For further information on FSTs, refer to the Function Sequence Table

(FST) User Manual (part D301058X012).

1.6 ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software

Graphical

Interface

ROCLINK 800 Configuration software (“ROCLINK 800”) is a

Microsoft ® Windows



-based program that runs on a personal computer and enables you to monitor, configure, and calibrate the ROC800.

ROCLINK 800 has a standard, easy-to-use Windows interface. Treebased navigation makes accessing features quick and easy.

Many of the configuration screens, such as stations, meters, I/O, and

PIDs, are available while ROCLINK 800 is off-line. This enables you to configure the system while either on-line or off-line with the ROC800.

The Local Operator Interface (LOI local port) provides a direct link between the ROC800 unit and a personal computer (PC). The LOI port uses an RJ-45 connector with standard EIA-232 (RS-232D) pinout.

With a personal computer running ROCLINK 800, you can locally configure the ROC800, extract data, and monitor its operation.

Remote configuration is possible from a host computer using a serial or dial-up modem communications line. Configurations can be duplicated and saved to a disk. In addition to creating a backup, this feature is useful when you are similarly configuring multiple ROC800s for the first time, or when you need to make configuration changes off-line.

Once you create a backup configuration file, you can load it into a

ROC800 by using the Download function.

Access to the ROC800 is restricted to authorized users with correct User

ROCLINK 800’s graphic interface dynamically represents the modules currently installed in your ROC800 and simplifies the configuration process. Move the mouse over a module to highlight it, and click to access the configuration parameter screen for that module

(see Figure 1-3 ).



Revised July-2017

Figure 1-3. ROCLINK 800 Dynamic Graphical Interface

You can build custom displays for the ROC800 that combine both graphic and dynamic data elements. The displays can monitor the operation of the ROC800 either locally or remotely.

You can archive historical values for any numeric parameter in the

ROC800. For each parameter configured for historical archiving, the system keeps time-stamped minute, periodic, and daily data values as well as yesterday’s and today’s daily minimum and maximum values.

You can collect history values from the ROC800 using ROCLINK 800 or another third-party host system. You can view history directly from the ROC800 or from a previously saved disk file. For each history segment, you can configure the number of periodic history values archived, the frequency of archiving the periodic values, the number of daily values archived, and the contract hour.

ROCLINK 800 can create an EFM (Electronic Flow Measurement) report file that contains all the configuration, alarms, events, periodic and daily history logs, and other history logs associated with the stations and meter runs in the ROC800. This file then becomes the custody transfer audit trail.

The SRBX (Spontaneous-Report-By-Exception) alarming feature is available for the host communication ports (Local and dial-up modem ports). SRBX allows the ROC800 to contact the host to report an alarm condition.

Note

:

The integrity of metrology results is critical to the measurement aspects of the ROC800L. You can lock certain configuration parameters to ensure the accuracy of liquid hydrocarbon calculations.

1.8 DS800 Development Suite Software

DS800 Development Suite software allows you to program in any one of the five IEC 61131-3 languages. You can download DS800 applications to a ROC800 over a serial or Ethernet port, independently of the ROCLINK 800 software.

DS800 Development Suite software allows you to program in all five of the IEC 61131-3 languages:

▪

Ladder Logic Diagrams (LD).

▪ Sequential Function Chart (SFC).

▪

Function Block Diagram (FBD).

▪

Structured Text (ST).

▪

Instruction List (IL).

A Flow Chart language provides a sixth programming language. With these six languages, FSTs, and built-in functionality, you can configure and program the ROC800 in an environment in which you are comfortable.

You can download and implement programs developed in the DS800

Development Suite software in the ROC800 in addition to—or as an alternative to—FST programs. DS800 software has definite benefits for programmers who prefer to use the IEC 61131-3 languages, who desire to multi-drop units in a distributed architecture, or who desire enhanced program diagnostics capabilities.

Additional DS800 Development Suite software features include:

▪

Cross-reference (bindings) between variables in separate ROC800 units.

▪

This chapter describes the ROC800-Series housing (case), backplane

(electronic connection board at the back of the housing), CPU (central processing unit), and the expansion backplane (EXP). This chapter provides a description and specifications of these hardware items and explains installation and startup of the ROC800-Series.

2.1 Installation Requirements

The ROC800’s design makes it highly adaptable to a wide variety of installations. Consequently, this manual cannot cover all possible installation scenarios. Contact your local sales representative if you require information concerning a specific installation not described in this manual.

Planning is essential to a good installation. Because installation requirements depend on many factors (such as the application, location, ground conditions, climate, and accessibility), this document only provides generalized guidelines.

Revised July-2017 Installation and Use 2-1


2.1.1 Environmental Requirements

Always install the ROC800 in a user-supplied building or enclosure to protect it from direct exposure to rain, snow, ice, blowing dust or debris, and corrosive atmospheres. If you install the ROC800 outside of a building, it must be placed in a National Electrical Manufacturer’s

Association (NEMA) 3 or higher rated enclosure to ensure the necessary level of protection.

Note

:

In salt spray environments, it is especially important to ensure that the enclosure—including all entry and exit points—is sealed properly.

The ROC800 operates over a wide range of temperatures. However, in extreme climates it may be necessary to provide temperature-controlling devices to maintain stable operating conditions. In extremely hot climates, a filtered ventilation system or air conditioning may be required. In extremely cold climates, it may be necessary to provide a thermostatically controlled heater in the same enclosure as the ROC800.

To maintain a non-condensing atmosphere inside the ROC800 enclosure in areas of high humidity, it may be necessary to add heat or dehumidification.

2-2

2.1.2 Site Requirements

When locating the ROC800 on the site, careful consideration can help reduce future operational problems. Consider the following items when choosing a location:



Local, state, and federal codes often place restrictions on locations and dictate site requirements. Examples of these restrictions are fall distance from a meter run, distance from pipe flanges, and hazardous area classifications. Ensure that all code requirements are met.



Choose a location for the ROC800 to minimize the length of signal and power wiring.



Locate ROC800s equipped for radio communications so the antenna has an unobstructed signal path. Antennas should not be aimed into storage tanks, buildings, or other tall structures. If possible, antennas should be located at the highest point on the site. Overhead clearance should be sufficient to allow the antenna to be raised to a height of at least twenty feet.



To minimize interference with radio communications, choose a location for the ROC800 away from electrical noise sources, such as engines, large electric motors, and utility line transformers.

 Choose a location for the ROC800 away from heavy traffic areas to reduce the risk of being damaged by vehicles. However, provide adequate vehicle access to aid monitoring and maintenance.

Installation and Use Revised July-2017




The site must comply with class limits of Part 15 of the FCC rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) The device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) the device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

2.1.3 Compliance with Hazardous Area Standards

The ROC hazardous location approval is for Class I, Division 2, Groups

A, B, C, and D. The Class, Division, and Group terms include:



Class defines the general nature of the hazardous material in the surrounding atmosphere. Class I is for locations where flammable gases or vapors may be present in the air in quantities sufficient to produce explosive or ignitable mixtures.



Division defines the probability of hazardous material being present in an ignitable concentration in the surrounding atmosphere.

Division 2 locations are locations that are presumed to be hazardous only in an abnormal situation.



Group defines the hazardous material in the surrounding atmosphere. Groups A to D are: o Group A: Atmosphere containing acetylene. o Group B: Atmosphere containing hydrogen, gases, or vapors of equivalent nature. o Group C: Atmosphere containing ethylene, gases, or vapors of equivalent nature. o Group D: Atmosphere containing propane, gases, or vapors of equivalent nature.

For the ROC800 to be approved for hazardous locations, it must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines or other applicable codes.

Caution

When working on units located in a hazardous area (where explosive gases may be present), make sure the area is in a non-hazardous state before performing procedures. Performing these procedures in a hazardous area could result in personal injury or property damage.

2.1.4 Power Installation Requirements

Be sure to route power away from hazardous areas, as well as sensitive monitoring and radio equipment. Local and company codes generally provide guidelines for installations. Adhere rigorously to all local and

National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.

The removable terminal blocks accept 12 to 22 American Wire Gauge

(AWG) wiring.



Although the ROC800 can operate on different DC voltages based on the installed Power Input module, it is good practice when using a battery-backed system to install a low-voltage cutoff device to help protect batteries and other devices the ROC800 does not power.

Similarly, when the ROC800 uses a PM-24 Power Input module with a

24 V dc battery-backed system, it is a good practice to install an appropriate low voltage cutoff device to protect the battery back-up.

2.1.5 Grounding Installation Requirements

If your company has no specific grounding requirements, install the

ROC800 as a floating system (unconnected to ground). Otherwise, follow your company’s specific grounding practices. However, if you are making a connection between a grounded device and the ROC800

EIA-232 (RS-232) port, ground the ROC800 Power Input module either by connecting the PM-12’s BAT– to ground or by connecting either of the PM-24 or PM-30 module’s negative Power Inputs to ground.

The National Electrical Code (NEC) governs the ground wiring requirements. When the equipment uses a DC voltage source, the grounding system must terminate at the service disconnect. All equipment grounding conductors must provide an uninterrupted electrical path to the service disconnect. This includes wire or conduit carrying the power supply conductors.



The National Electrical Code Article 250-83 (1993) , paragraph c, defines the material and installation requirements for grounding electrodes.



The National Electrical Code Article 250-91 (1993) , paragraph a, defines the material requirements for grounding electrode conductors.

 The National Electrical Code Article 250-92 (1993) , paragraph a, provides installation requirements for grounding electrode conductors.



The National Electrical Code Article 250-95 (1993) defines the size requirements for equipment grounding conductors.

Improper grounding or poor grounding practice can often cause problems, such as the introduction of ground loops into your system.

Proper grounding of the ROC800 helps to reduce the effects of electrical noise on the ROC800’s operation and protects against lightning.

Install a surge protection device at the service disconnect on DC voltage source systems to protect against lightning and power surges for the installed equipment. All earth grounds must have an earth to ground rod or grid impedance of 25 ohms or less as measured with a ground system tester. You may also consider a telephone surge protector for the dial-up modem communications module.

2-4 Installation and Use Revised July-2017


A pipeline with cathodic protection is not a good ground. Do not tie common to the cathodic part of the pipeline.

When connecting shielded cable, be sure to tie the shielded cable to earth ground at the end of the cable attached to the ROC800 only. Leave the other end of the shielded cable open to avoid ground loops.

2.1.6 I/O Wiring Requirements

I/O wiring requirements are site- and application-dependent. Local, state, and NEC requirements determine the I/O wiring installation methods. Direct buried cable, conduit and cable, or overhead cable are all options for I/O wiring installations.

Shielded, twisted-pair cable is recommended for I/O signal wiring. The twisted-pair minimizes signal errors caused by Electro-Magnetic

Interference (EMI), Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), and transients.

Use insulated, shielded, twisted-pair wiring when using MVS signal lines. The removable terminal blocks accept 12 to 24 AWG wire.

2.2 Required Tools

Use the following tools to perform installation and maintenance procedures on the ROC800.



Phillips screwdriver, size 0.



Flat blade screwdriver, size 2.5 mm (0.1 inch).



Flat blade screwdriver, large, or other prying instrument.

2.3 Housing

The housing case is made of a patented Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene

(ABS) plastic (U.S. Patent 6,771,513) and the wire channel covers are made of polypropylene plastic.

2.3.1 Removing and Replacing End Caps

Normal use and maintenance of the ROC800 does not typically require you to remove the end caps on the housing. Follow these procedures in case removal is necessary.

To remove the end caps:

1.

Place the tip of a flat-blade screwdriver into the top pry hole of the end cap and loosen the end cap by pulling the handle of the screwdriver away from the backplane.

Note

:

The pry holes are located on the sides of the end caps.

To replace the end caps:

1.

Align the back edge of the end cap on the housing.

2.

Rotate the end cap towards the housing and snap the end cap into place.

2.3.2 Removing and Installing Wire Channel Covers

Install the wire channel covers over the wiring channels once the wiring of the terminal blocks is complete. Wire channel covers are located on the front of the ROC800 housing.

To remove a wire channel cover:

1.

Grasp the wire channel cover at both the top and bottom.

2.

Start at the top or bottom and pull the wire channel cover out of the wire channel.

To replace a wire channel cover:

1.

Align the wire channel cover over the wire channel, allowing unobstructed wire access.

2.

Press the wire channel cover into place until it snaps.

Note

:

The tabs on the left side of the wire channel cover should rest in the slots on the left edge of the channel.

2.3.3 Removing and Installing Module Covers

Caution

Before you insert an I/O or communications module, remove the module cover over the empty module slots in which you intend to install the modules. Although you are not required to remove the power to the

ROC800 to perform this procedure, caution is always advisable when working with a powered ROC800.

To avoid circuit damage when working inside the unit, use appropriate electrostatic discharge precautions (such as wearing a grounded wrist strap).


To remove a module cover:

1.

Remove the wire channel cover.



2.

Unscrew the two captive screws on the face of the cover.

3.

Using the tab at the left side of the removable terminal block, pull the module cover straight out from the ROC800 housing.

Note

:

If you remove a module for an extended period, install a module cover plate over the empty module slot to keep dust and other matter from getting into the ROC800.

To install a module cover:

1.

Place the module cover over the module slot.

2.

Screw the two captive screws on the module cover plate.

3.

Replace the wire channel cover.

2.4 Mounting the ROC800 on a DIN Rail

When choosing an installation site, be sure to check all clearances.

Provide adequate clearance for wiring and service. The ROC800 mounts on Type 35 DIN rails and requires two strips of DIN rail. Refer to

Figures 2-1 , 2-2 , and 2-3 .

Note

:

English measurement units (inches) appear in brackets in the following figures.

Figure 2-1. Side View of the ROC800

4.

Fasten the upper strip of DIN rail to the panel.



Note

:

Following this procedure (which uses the ROC800 to provide the correct DIN rail spacing) ensures that the ROC800 is held securely in place.

2.4.2 Securing the ROC800 to the DIN Rail

When placed correctly, the DIN rail catches (see Figure 2-3 ) secure the

ROC to the DIN rail. Place the catches according to the following configuration:



ROC809: Two catches.



ROC827: One catch.



ROC827 and one EXP: Place catches on ROC827 and EXP.



ROC827 and two EXPs: Place catches on ROC827 and second EXP.



ROC827 and three EXPs: Place catches on ROC827 and third EXP.



ROC827 and four EXPs: Place catches on ROC827 and second and fourth EXP.

2.4.3 Removing the ROC800 from the DIN Rail

To remove the ROC800 from DIN rails, gently lever the DIN rail catches (located on the top of the housing) up approximately 3-4mm

(1/8”). Then tilt the top of the ROC800 away from the DIN rail.

2.5 ROC800-Series Expansion Backplane (EXP)

The expansion backplane has connectors for the central processing unit

(CPU), the power input module, and all the I/O and communication modules. Once a module is completely inserted into the module slot, the connector on the module fits into one of the connectors on the backplane. The backplane does not require any wiring, so no jumpers are associated with the backplane.



2-10

Figure 2-4. ROC827 and Expansion Backplane

Removing the backplane from the housing is not recommended, as there are no field serviceable parts. If the backplane requires maintenance, please contact your local sales representative.

2.5.1 Attaching an Expansion Backplane

To attach an EXP to an existing ROC827 base unit or to another EXP:

1.

Remove power from the ROC827.

2.

Remove the right-hand end cap from the ROC827 as described in

Section 2.3.1, Removing and Replacing End Caps .

The CPU has two buttons, LED and Reset (see Figures 2-7 or 2-8 ):



RESET: o To reset all comm ports, stop user programs, stop FSTs, and stop

DS800 programs, press and hold in the Reset button for approximately 10 seconds while the ROC800 is powered.

Note

:

This feature is not available on the DL8000. o To reset the ROC800 configuration to system defaults, remove power, press and hold in the Reset button as you re-apply power to the ROC800. This reset clears all user programs, FSTs, and

DS800 programs but retains history, alarms, and events.

Note

:

The Reset button is recessed to prevent accidental resets. Use the end of a paper clip to access this button.

Caution

For ROC800 configuration system defaults, when you reset, the

ROC800 loses configuration. BEFORE you attempt ANY type of reset, back up your configuration and log data and ensure that you have current versions of user programs and DS800 programs to reload.

Refer to “Preserving Configuration and Log Data” in Chapter 6,

Troubleshooting.



LED: Press to turn on the LEDs on the CPU module, I/O modules, and communication modules when the ROC800 has timed out.

The STATUS LED helps indicate the integrity of the ROC800 (refer to

Table 2-2 ).

To save power, you can enable or disable the LEDs on the ROC800

(with the exception of the LED on the power module). Using

ROCLINK 800 (from the ROCLINK 800 menu, select ROC > Flags and the Advanced tab), you can define how long the LEDs remains on after you press the LED button on the CPU module. For instance, with


ROC800-Series Instruction Manual the default setting of five minutes, all LEDs turn off after five minutes.

If you press the LED button, LEDs light and stay lit again for five minutes. By entering a 0 (zero), the LED always stays lit.

2.6.1 Removing the CPU Module

Caution

Failure to exercise proper electrostatic discharge precautions (such as wearing a grounded wrist strap) may reset the processor or damage electronic components, resulting in interrupted operations.


To remove the CPU module:

1. Perform the backup procedure described in Preserving

Configuration and Log Data in Chapter 6, Troubleshooting .

2. Remove power from the ROC800.

3. Remove the wire channel cover.

4. Unscrew the two small screws on the front of the CPU module and remove the faceplate.

5. Place a small screwdriver under the ejector clip at the top or bottom of the CPU module and lightly pry the CPU module out of its socket. You may find it easiest to carefully pry on the top ejector clip a little, then carefully pry the bottom ejector. You will feel and hear the CPU as it detaches from the backplane.

6. Remove the CPU module carefully. Do not scrape either side of the module against the ROC800. Make sure not to pull on any cables attached to the CPU module.

2.6.2 Installing the CPU Module

2. Press the CPU firmly into the slot, ensuring the ejector clips rest on the module rail guides. The connectors at the back of the CPU module fit securely into the connectors on the backplane.

3. Place the CPU faceplate on the CPU.

4. Tighten the two screws on the faceplate of the CPU module firmly

(see Figure 2-7 ).

5. Replace the wire channel cover.

6. Review Restarting the ROC800 in Chapter 6, Troubleshooting .

7. Return power to the ROC800 unit.

2.7 License Keys

License keys with valid license codes grant access to applications or, in some cases, allow optional firmware functionality to execute. In some situations, a license key may also be required before you can run the application. Examples of licensed applications include DS800

Development Suite software, meter run calculations, and various user programs. You can then configure these applications using ROCLINK

800 or the DS800 Development Suite software.

The term “license key” refers to the physical piece of hardware (refer to

Figure 2-9 ) that can contain up to seven different licenses. Each

ROC800 can have none, one, or two installed license keys. If you remove a license key after enabling an application, the firmware disables the task from running. This prevents unauthorized execution of protected applications in a ROC800.

2.8.1 Startup

Before you apply power to the ROC800, assess the power requirements

(including the base unit, EXPs, and any installed modules and peripheral devices) that comprise the total configuration for your

ROC800. Refer to Determining Power Consumption in Chapter 3,

Power Connections .

Apply power to the ROC800 (refer to Installing a Power Input Module in Chapter 3, Power Connections ). The power input module’s LED


ROC800-Series Instruction Manual indicator should light green to indicate that the applied voltage is correct. Then, the STATUS indicator on the CPU should light to indicate a valid operation. Depending on the Power Saving Mode setting, the STATUS indicator may not remain lit during operation

(refer to Table 2-2 ).

2.8.2 Operation

Caution

Once startup is successful, configure the ROC800 to meet the requirements of the application. Once it is configured and you have calibrated the I/O and any associated Multi-Variable Sensors (MVS,

MVSS, MVSI, and so on), place the ROC800 into operation.

This chapter discusses the Power Input modules. It describes the modules, explains how to install and wire them, and provides worksheets to help you determine—and tune—the power requirements for the I/O and communications modules you can install in the ROC800 and the EXPs.

3.1 Power Input Module Descriptions

The ROC800 uses a Power Input module to convert external input power to the voltage levels the electronics require. The module also monitors voltage levels to ensure proper operation. Three Power Input modules—12 Vdc (PM-12), 24 Vdc (PM-24) and 30 Vdc (PM-30)—are available for the ROC800.

The power consumption of a ROC800 and any attached expandable backplanes determines the current requirements for the external power supply. Refer to Section 3.2

, Determining Power Consumption for a discussion and worksheets on assessing power requirements.

The Power Input module has removable terminal blocks for wiring and servicing. The terminal blocks can accept sizes 12 to 22 AWG

(American Wire Gauge) wiring.

3.1.1 12-Volt DC Power Input Module (PM-12)

Using the PM-12, the ROC800 can accept 12 Volts dc (nominal) input power from an AC/DC converter or other 12-volt dc supply. The input source should be fused and connected to the BAT+ and BAT– terminals

(see Figure 3-1 ). The Power Input module uses 3.3 Volts dc switching power to provide power to the ROC800-Series modules via the

Revised July-2017 Power Connections 3-1

ROC800-Series Instruction Manual backplane. The ROC800 requires 11.5 to 14.5 Volts dc for proper operation.

The CHG+ and CHG– terminals comprise an Analog Input channel that allows you to monitor an external voltage between 0 to 18 Volts dc. For example, you can connect a solar panel upstream of the solar regulator to monitor the output of the solar panel. This allows you to compare the

System AI Point Number 2 for the charging voltage (CHG+) to the actual battery voltage (BAT+) System AI Point Number 1 and take action as required. The module has a low-voltage cut-off circuit built-in to guard against draining power supply batteries. Refer to Automatic

Self Tests in Chapter 1, General Information .

Using the PM-24, the ROC800 can accept 24 Volts dc (nominal) input power from an AC/DC converter or other 24 Volts dc supply connected to the + and – terminals. Connect the input power to either or both of the + and – channels. The 24 V dc Power Input module (PM-24) does not have CHG terminals for monitoring a charging voltage, and does not monitor the input voltage for alarming, sleep mode, or other monitoring purposes. The module has two LEDs that indicate voltage is received at the backplane and the CPU (see Figure 3-2 and Tables 3-3 and 3-4 ).

The Power Input module uses 3.3 Volts dc switching power to provide power to the I/O and communications modules installed in the ROC800 and any expanded backplanes. With this Power Input module installed, the ROC800 requires 20 to 30 Volts dc for proper operation.

Use the AUX+ and AUX– terminals to supply reverse polarity protected source voltage to external devices, such as a radio or solenoid.

Low Voltage

Cutoff

The design of the PM-30 power module (like the PM-24 power module it replaces) does not include the low voltage cutoff feature present in the PM-12 power module. In the PM-12 module, when power falls below the set LoLo alarm (a default of 10.1V), the module ceases to provide power to the backplane. Thus, the module shuts down CPU operations.

Remote Automation Solutions continues to offer the PM-12 for installations requiring low voltage cutoff. Neither the PM-24 or the PM-

30 has the low voltage cutoff feature. However, if you need low voltage cutoff, we suggest one of the following solutions:



Place a low voltage disconnect device between the ROC800 and power source. Placing a commercially available low voltage disconnect device between the power source and the ROC800 provides the low voltage cutoff protection. Many low voltage disconnect devices have user-selectable disconnect values for a variety of voltages.

Use the Auxiliary Switch (AUX SW) output terminals on the

PM-30 . If shutting down power to an external device is sufficient, then connecting to the Auxiliary Switch (AUX SW) terminals on the

PM-30 power module ensures power is cut off when the LoLo alarm is triggered. This may be the preferred solution if the ROC800 provides critical controls. When the LoLo alarm is triggered and the

ROC800 CPU goes into sleep mode, it cuts power to the Auxiliary

Switch (AUX SW) terminals.

3.1.4 Auxiliary Output (AUX+ and AUX –)

You can use the AUX+ and AUX–terminals to supply reverse polarity protected source voltage to external devices, such as a radio or a solenoid. All module terminal blocks accept 12 to 22 AWG wiring.

Refer to Figures 3-3 and 3-4 .

PM-12 For the 12-volt dc Power Input module (PM-12), the auxiliary output follows the voltage located at BAT+ minus ~0.7 Volts dc, which is the protection diode voltage drop. For example, if the BAT+ voltage is 13 volts dc, then AUX+ is ~12.3 Volts dc.

For the 12-volt dc Power Input module, AUX+ / AUX– is always on and is current-limited by a fast-acting glass 2.5 Amp x 20 mm fuse. In the event that the fuse blows, CSA requires that you replace the 2.5

Amp fast-acting fuse with a Little Fuse 217.025 or equivalent. Refer to

Automatic Self Tests in Chapter 1, General Information .

Figure 3-7. Auxiliary Power Wiring for PM-12 Module

PM-24 For the 24 volt dc Power Input module (PM-24), the AUX voltage is always 12 Volts dc minus ~0.7 Volts. AUX+ / AUX– is internally current-limited by a 0.5 Amp Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC).




PM-30 For the 30 volt dc Power Input module (PM-30), the auxiliary output follows the voltage located at BAT+ minus ~1.0 Volts dc, which is the protection diode voltage drop. For example, if the BAT+ voltage is 13 volts dc, then AUX+ is ~12.3 Volts dc.

For the PM-30 Power Input module, AUX+ / AUX– is always on and is internally current-limited by a .9 Amp Positive Temperature Coefficient

(PTC).

If you need to cycle power to the radio or other device to reduce the load on the power source (a recommended practice when using batteries), use a Discrete Output (DO) module to switch power on and off. (The PM-12 and PM-30 module’s on-board AUX

SW+

and AUX

SW– terminals perform this function.) Refer to the ROCLINK 800

2. Remove the fuse located at F1 on the Power Input module.

To re-install the auxiliary output fuse:

1. Replace the fuse located at F1 on the Power Input module.

2. Perform the procedure described in Section 3.4, Installing a Power

PM-12 The AUX

SW

+ and AUX

SW

–terminals on the 12 volt dc Power Input module (PM-12) provide switched power for external devices, such as radios. AUX

SW

+ is current-limited for protection of the power input and the external device via a 0.5 Amp nominal Positive Temperature

Coefficient (PTC). The AUX

SW

+ and AUX

SW

– terminals provide voltages from 0 to 14.25 Volts dc. AUX

SW

+ turns off when the voltage at the BAT terminals falls to a software-configurable voltage

(LoLo Alarm). All module terminal blocks accept 12 to 22 AWG wiring. Refer to Figure 3-1 .

If the source voltage falls to a level below which reliable operation cannot be ensured, the hardware circuitry on the PM-12 module automatically disables the AUX

SW

+ outputs. This activity is based on the LoLo Alarm limit (which defaults to 10.6 Volts dc) set for the

System Battery Analog Input Point Number 1. The low input voltage detect circuit includes approximately 0.75 Volts dc of hysteresis between turn-off and turn-on levels.

PM-30 The AUX

SW

+ and AUX

SW

–terminals on the PM-30 (11-30 Volts dc)

Power Input module provides switched power for external devices, such as radios. AUX

SW

+ is current-limited for protection of the power input and the external device via a .800 mA +/- 10% Positive

Temperature Coefficient (PTC). The AUX

SW

+ and AUX

SW

– terminals on the PM-30 module provide voltages from 10.3 to 29.3 Volts dc which follow the input voltage. AUX

SW

+ turns off when the voltage at the BAT terminals falls to a software-configurable voltage (LoLo

Alarm). All module terminal blocks accept 12 to 22 AWG wiring.

Refer to Figure 3-3.

If the source voltage falls to a level below which reliable operation cannot be ensured, the hardware circuitry on the Power Input module automatically disables the AUX

SW

+ outputs. This activity is based on the LoLo Alarm limit (which defaults to 10.1 Volts dc) set for the

ROC800-Series Instruction Manual detect circuit includes approximately 0.75 Volts dc of hysteresis between turn-off and turn-on levels.

For further information on the STATUS LED functions, refer to Table

2-2 in Chapter 2, Installation and Use .

3.2 Determining Power Consumption

Determining the power consumption requirements for a ROC800 configuration involves the following steps:

1.

Determine your ideal ROC800 configuration, which includes identifying all modules, device relays, meters, solenoids, radios, transmitters, and other devices that may receive DC power from the complete ROC800 configuration (base unit and EXPs).

Note

:

You should also identify any devices (such as a touch screen panel) that may be powered by the same system but not necessarily by the ROC800.

2.

Calculate the “worst-case” DC power consumption for that configuration by totaling the combined power draw required for all installed modules, as well as accounting for the power any modules provide to external devices (through the use of +T).

Note

:

“+T” describes the isolated power some modules (such as

AI, AO, PI, and HART) may supply to external devices, such as 4–20 mA pressure and temperature transducers.

3.

Verify that the power input module you intend to use can meet the power requirements calculated in the first step.

This verification helps you identify and anticipate power demands from +T external devices that exceed the capabilities of the PM-12 or PM-24 Power Input modules. In this case, you can then make arrangements to externally power these field devices.

4.

“Tune” (if necessary) the configuration by providing external power or re-assessing the configuration to lessen the power requirements from the ROC800.

To assist you in this process, this chapter contains a series of worksheets

( Tables 3-5 through 3-18 ) that help you to identify and assess the power requirements for each component of your ROC800 system. Table 3-5 identifies the power requirements related to the ROC800 and summarizes the power requirements you identify on Tables 3-6 through

3-18 . (Complete Tables 3-6 through 3-17 to calculate the power consumption for each of the I/O modules, and then transfer those results to Table 3-5 .) Completing Table 3-5 enables you to quickly determine whether the power input module you intend to use is sufficient for your configuration. If the power module is not sufficient, you can then review



General Calculation

Process individual worksheets to determine how to best “tune” your configuration and lessen power demands.

To calculate the power requirements of a ROC800 configuration requires:

1. Determine the kind and number of communication modules and the kind and number of expanded backplanes you are implementing.

Enter those values in the Quantity Used column of Table 3-5 .

2. Multiply the P

Typical

value by the Quantity Used. Enter the values in the Sub-Total column of Table 3-5 . Perform this calculation for both the communications module and the LED.

3. Determine the kind and number of I/O modules you are implementing and complete Tables 3-6 through 3-20 for those modules. For each applicable I/O module: a. Calculate the P

Typical

values and enter them in the P

Typical

columns of each table. Perform this calculation for the I/O modules,

LEDs (if applicable), channels (if applicable), and any other devices. b. Calculate the Duty Cycle value for each I/O module and each

I/O channel (as applicable). Enter those values in the Duty Cycle column of Tables 3-6 through 3-20 . c. Multiply the P

Typical

values by the Quantity Used by the Duty

Cycle on each applicable table. Enter those individual sub-totals in the Sub-Total column on each table and add the sub-totals to calculate the Total for the table.

4. Transfer the totals from Tables 3-6 through 3-20 to their respective lines in the Sub-Total column on Table 3-5 .

5. Add the Sub-Total values for Tables 3-6 through 3-20 . Enter that value in the Total for All Modules line on Table 3-5 .

6. Add the value from the Total for ROC800 Base Unit to the Total for

All Modules. Enter that result in the Total for ROC800 Base Unit and All Modules line.

7. Transfer the Other Devices total from Table 3-20 to its respective line in the Sub-Total column on Table 3-5 .

8. Add the values from Total for ROC800 Base Unit, Total for All

Modules, and the total for Other Devices. Enter that value in the

Total for ROC800 Base Unit, All Modules, and Other Devices line.

9. Multiply the value in the Total for ROC800 Base Unit, Total for All

Modules, and Other Devices by 0.25. Enter the result in the Power

System Safety Factor (0.25) line.



Note

:

This value represents a safety factor to the power system to account for losses and other variables not factored into the power consumption calculations. This safety factor may vary depending on external influences. Adjust the factor value up or down accordingly.

10. Add the value for the Power System Safety Factor (0.25) to the value for Total for ROC800 Base Unit, All Modules, and Other

Devices to determine the total estimated power consumption for the configured ROC800 system.

3.2.1 Tuning the Configuration

The PM-12 Power Input module can supply a maximum of 60 W

(60,000 mW) to the backplane. The PM-24, when operating between

–40 

C to 55



C, can supply a maximum of 30 W (30000 mW) to the backplane. Across its entire operating range (–40



C to 85



C) the PM-24 can supply 24 W (24000 mW). The PM-30 Power Input module can supply a maximum of 70 W( at 11 volts dc ) (70,000 mW) to 80W(at 30 volts dc) (80,000mW) at -40°C to 75°C to the backplane.

Refer to Table 3-5 and the value you entered in the Total for ROC800

Base Unit and All Modules line. That is the value against which you

“tune” your configuration to accommodate your Power Input module. If your configuration requires more power than the Power Input module you intend to use, you need to modify your I/O module configuration to reduce your power requirements.

Tuning Hints Review the content of Tables 3-6 through 3-20 . Suggestions to help you better align the configuration of your ROC800 with the capability of the Power Input module you intend to use include:



Reduce the +T usage by providing an external power supply for as many transmitters or field devices needed to reduce the value in the

Total for ROC800 Base Unit and All Modules line on Table 3-5 to below the capability of the Power Input module you intend to use.



Reduce the +T usage by reducing the number of transmitters or field devices.



Reduce the total number of I/O modules by consolidating transmitters or field devices onto as few I/O modules as possible.

Note

:

Tuning your I/O module configuration may require several iterations to rework the content of Tables 3-6 through 3-18 until your power requirements match the capability of the Power

Input module you intend to use.

Figure 3-10. Backup Battery on Series 2 CPU Module



3.4 Installing a Power Input Module

Caution

To install the Power Input module:



Note

:

Remove the plastic module cover and wire channel cover, if present.

1. Slide the Power Input module into the slot.

2. Press the module firmly into the slot. Make sure the connectors at the back of the Power Input module fit into the connectors on the backplane.

3. Tighten the two captive screws on the front of the Power Input module firmly (refer to Figures 3-1 and 3-2 ).

4. Return power to the ROC800.



3.5 Connecting the ROC800 to Wiring

The following paragraphs describe how to connect the ROC800 to power. Use the recommendations and procedures described in the following paragraphs to avoid damage to equipment.

Use 12 to 22 American Wire Gauge (AWG) wire for all power wiring.

Caution

Always turn off the power to the ROC800 before you attempt any type of wiring. Wiring of powered equipment could result in personal injury or property damage.

To avoid circuit damage when working with the unit, use appropriate electrostatic discharge precautions, such as wearing a grounded wrist strap.

To connect the wire to the removable block compression terminals:

1. Bare the end (¼ inch maximum) of the wire.

2. Insert the bared end into the clamp beneath the termination screw.

3. Tighten the screw.



The ROC800 should have a minimum of bare wire exposed to prevent short circuits. Allow some slack when making connections to prevent strain.

3.5.1 Wiring the DC Power Input Module

Use 12 to 22 American Wire Gauge (AWG) wire for all power wiring.

It is important to use good wiring practice when sizing, routing, and connecting power wiring. All wiring must conform to state, local, and

NEC codes. Verify that the hook-up polarity is correct.

To make DC power supply connections:

1. Install a surge protection device at the service disconnect.

2. Remove all other power sources from the ROC800.

3. Install a fuse at the input power source (see Figure 3-5 ).

4. Remove the terminal block connector from the socket.

5. Insert the bared end of each wire into the appropriate power module connectors:



For PM-12 (12 Volts dc source): into the clamp beneath the appropriate BAT+ and BAT– termination screws.

 For PM-24 (24 Volts dc source): into the clamp beneath the appropriate POWER INPUT+ and POWER INPUT– termination screws.



For PM-30 (30 Volts dc source): into the clamp beneath the appropriate POWER INPUT+ and POWER INPUT– termination screws.

3-28

Figure 3-11. 12 Volts dc Power Supply and BAT+ / BAT- Wiring

6. Screw each wire into the terminal block.

7. Plug the terminal block connector back into the socket.



8. If you are monitoring an external charge voltage (12 Volts dc Power

Input Module only), wire the CHG+ and CHG– terminal block connector. Refer to Figure 3-12 .

Figure 3-12. 12 Volt dc Power Supply and CHG+ / CHG– Wiring

9. Replace all other power sources (if necessary) to the ROC800.


Note

:

Refer to Table 3-2 concerning LEDs.

3.5.2 Wiring the External Batteries

You can use external batteries as the main source of power for the

ROC800 with the 12 volts dc Power Input module (PM-12). The maximum voltage that can be applied to the BAT+ / BAT– terminals is

16 volts dc before damage may occur. The recommended maximum voltage is 14.5 volts dc (refer to Table 3-2 concerning LEDs).

It is important that you use good wiring practices when sizing, routing, and connecting power wiring. All wiring must conform to state, local, and NEC codes. Use 12 to 22 American Wire Gauge (AWG) wire for all power wiring.

Batteries should be rechargeable, sealed, gel-cell, lead-acid batteries.

Connect batteries in parallel to achieve the required capacity (refer to

Figure 3-6 ). The amount of battery capacity required for a particular installation depends upon the power requirements of the equipment and days of reserve (autonomy) desired. Calculate battery requirements based on power consumption of the ROC800 and all devices powered by the batteries.



Battery Reserve Battery reserve is the amount of time that the batteries can provide power without discharging below 20% of their total output capacity.

The battery reserve should be a minimum of five days, with ten days of reserve preferred. Add 24 hours of reserve capacity to allow for overnight discharge. Space limitations, cost, and output are all factors that determine the actual amount of battery capacity available.

To determine the system capacity requirements, multiply the system current load on the batteries by the amount of reserve time required, as shown in the following equation:

System Requirement = Current Load in Amps * Reserve Hours = _____ Amp Hours

Caution

When using batteries, apply in-line fusing to avoid damaging the

ROC800.

To make battery connections:



2. Remove the BAT+ and BAT– terminal block connector from the socket.

3. Install a fuse at the input power source.

4. Insert each bared wire end into the clamp beneath the BAT+ and

BAT– termination screws (refer to Figure 3-5 ).

5. Screw each wire into the terminal block.


7. Re-apply power to the ROC800.

Note

:

Refer to Table 3-2 concerning LEDs.

3.5.3 Replacing the Internal Battery

The internal Sanyo 3 volt CR2430 lithium backup battery located on the

CPU provides backup of the data and the Real-Time Clock when the main power is not connected. The battery has a one-year minimum backup life while the battery is installed and no power is applied to the

ROC800. The battery has a ten-year backup life while the backup battery is installed and power is applied to ROC800 or when the battery is removed from the ROC800.

Recommended replacement lithium/manganese dioxide batteries include:

ROC800 and expansion backplanes and contains information on installing, wiring, and removing those modules.

4.1 I/O Module Overview

The I/O modules typically consist of a terminal block for field wiring and connectors to the backplane. Each I/O module uses a removable terminal block to electrically connect to field wiring. Refer to Figures

4-1 and 4-2 .

Revised July-2017


I/O modules for the ROC800 include:



Analog Input (AI) modules that provide the ability to monitor various analog field values.



Discrete Input (DI) and Pulse Input (PI) modules that provide the ability to monitor various discrete and pulse input field values.



Analog Output (AO), Discrete Output (DO), and Discrete Output

Relay (DOR) modules that provide the ability to manage various control devices.



Advance Pulse modules (APM) that provide advanced functionality

(such as densitometer support) commonly found in liquids and gas measurement applications.



Alternating Current I/O (ACIO) modules that control various AC output field devices and monitor various AC input field values.



Multiple Variable Sensor I/O (MVS I/O) modules that provide differential pressure, static pressure, and temperature inputs for orifice flow calculation.



Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) and Thermocouple (TC) modules that provide the ability to monitor various analog temperature field values.



HART module that receives and sends I/O from HART devices via a

4-20 mA analog signal.

Each module rests in a module slot at the front of the ROC800 or EXP housing. All modules have removable terminal blocks to make servicing easy. You can insert I/O modules in any module slot; modules are selfidentifying in the software.

Caution



The I/O modules acquire power from the backplane. Each module has an isolated DC/DC converter that provides logic, control, and field power as required. The ROC800 has eliminated the need for fuses on the I/O modules through the extensive use of current-limited shortcircuit protection and over voltage circuitry. Isolation is provided from other modules and the backplane, power, and signal isolation. The I/O modules are self-resetting after a fault clears.

When installing units in a hazardous area, make sure all installation components selected are labeled for use in such areas. Installation and maintenance must be performed only when the area is known to be nonhazardous. Installation in a hazardous area could result in personal injury or property damage.

Each I/O module installs in the ROC800 in the same manner. You can install any I/O module into any module socket, whether empty or in place of another module.

Caution



Note

:

After you install a new I/O module or replace an existing I/O module, it may be necessary to reconfigure the ROC800. To change configuration parameters, use ROCLINK 800 software to make changes to the new module. Any added modules (new

I/O points) start up with default configurations. Refer to the

ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User Manual (for

ROC800-Series) (part D301250X012) or the ROCLINK 800

Configuration Software User Manual (for ROC800L) (part

D301246X012).

4.2.1 Removing and Installing Wire Channel Covers

The ROC800 includes wire channel covers (see Figure 4-2 ) you install over the wiring channels once you complete wiring the terminal blocks on the modules.

To remove a wire channel cover:

1.

Grasp the wire channel cover at both the left and right ends.

2.

Start at the left or right and pull the wire channel cover out of the wire channel.

To install a wire channel cover:

1.

Align the wire channel cover over the wire channel, allowing unobstructed wire access.

2.

Press the wire channel cover into place until it snaps.

4-4 Input/Output Modules Revised July-2017


Note

:

The tabs on the top side of the wire channel cover should rest in the slots on the top edge of the channel.

4.2.2 Removing and Installing Module Slot Covers

Before you insert an I/O or communications module, remove the module cover (see Figure 4-2 ) over the empty module slots in which you intend to install the modules. Although you are not required to remove the power to the ROC800 to perform this procedure, caution is always advisable when working with a powered ROC800.

Caution

To avoid circuit damage when working inside the unit, use appropriate electrostatic discharge precautions (such as wearing a grounded wrist strap).


To remove a module cover:

1.


2.

Unscrew the two captive screws on the face of the cover.

3.

Using the tab at the top side of the module cover, lift the module cover from the ROC800.

Note

:

If you remove a module for an extended period, install a module slot cover over the empty module slot to keep dust and other matter from getting into the ROC800.

To install a module cover:

1.

Place the module cover over the module slot.

2.

Tighten the two captive screws on the face of the cover.

3.


4.2.3 Installing an I/O Module

To install an I/O module in either the ROC800 or the EXP:


Note

:

Leaving the wire channel cover in place can prevent the module from correctly connecting to the socket on the backplane.

2. Perform one of the following:



If there is a module currently in the slot, unscrew the captive screws and remove that module (refer to Removing an I/O

Module ).





If the slot is currently empty, remove the module cover.

3. Insert the new I/O module through the module slot on the front of the ROC800 or EXP housing. Make sure the label on the front of the module faces right side up (refer to Figure 4-3 ). Gently slide the module in place until it contacts properly with the connectors on the backplane.

Note

:

If the module stops and will not go any further, do not force the module. Remove the module and see if the pins are bent.

If the pins are bent, gently straighten the pins and re-insert the module. The back of the module must connect fully with the connectors on the backplane.

4-6

Figure 4-3. Installing an I/O Module

4. Tighten the captive screws on the front of the module.

5. Wire the I/O module (refer to Wiring I/O Modules ).


Caution

Never connect the sheath surrounding shielded wiring to a signal ground terminal or to the common terminal of an I/O module. Doing so makes the I/O module susceptible to static discharge, which can permanently damage the module. Connect the shielded wiring sheath only to a suitable earth ground.

7. Connect to ROCLINK 800 software and login. The I/O modules are self-identifying after re-connecting to ROCLINK 800 software.

8. Configure the I/O point.



4.2.4 Removing an I/O Module

To remove an I/O module:

1.


2.

Disconnect the field wiring.

3.

Unscrew the two captive screws holding the module in place.

4.

Gently pull the module’s lip out and remove the module from the slot. You may need to gently wiggle the module.

5.

Install a new module or install the module cover.

6.

Screw the two captive screws to hold the module or cover in place.

7.


4.2.5 Wiring I/O Modules

All modules have removable terminal blocks for convenient wiring and servicing. The terminal blocks can accommodate 12 to 22 AWG for wiring.

Caution



1.

Bare the end (¼ inch maximum) of the wire.

2.

Insert the bared end into the clamp beneath the termination screw.

3.

Tighten the screw.


Note

:

All modules have removable terminal blocks for convenient wiring and servicing. Twisted-pair cable is recommended for I/O signal wiring. The removable terminal blocks accept 12 to 22

AWG wiring.

4.3 Analog Input (AI) Modules

The Analog Input (AI) modules (both AI-12 and AI-16) have four scalable channels which typically measure either:



4–20 mA analog signal, with the use of a precision resistor

(supplied).



1–5 Volts dc signal.

If required, you can calibrate the low end of the analog signal to zero.

Refer to Chapter 7 in the ROC800-Series specific manual (part





Note

:

The AI-16 module provides 16-bit resolution and uses a 24-bit

A/D converter. DIP switches on the AI-16 module (see Figure 4-

6 ) allow you to select between current and voltage loop input.

You can configure the AI (+T) module as either 12 or 24 Volt dc using jumper J4 on the AI-12 module (see Figure 4-4 ). The AI modules can provide isolated +12 Volt dc or +24 Volt dc field transmitter power on a per-module basis. For example, one module can provide +12 Volts dc for powering low power analog transmitters, while another module in the same ROC800 can provide +24 Volts dc for powering conventional

4–20-mA transmitters. Refer to Figure 4-5 .

Caution

You can induce ground loops by tying commons from various modules together.

4.4 Analog Output (AO) Modules

The 16-bit Analog Output (AO) module has four channels that provide a current output for powering analog devices. Analog outputs are analog signals the ROC800 generates to regulate equipment, such as control valves or any device requiring analog control.

Each channel on this module provides a 4 to 20 mA current signal for controlling analog current loop devices. The AO module isolation includes the power supply connections.

Note

:

AO modules (Part W38199) labeled AO-16 are an earlier version that controls the low side current. AO modules (Part

W38269) labeled AO are a newer version (January 2005 and later) that provides and controls the high side current.

The AO module includes a moveable jumper (see Figure 4-7 ). Set the jumper to 12V if the transmitter load is 300Ω or less. Set the jumper to

24V if the transmitter load exceeds 300Ω.

4.5 Discrete Input (DI) Modules

The eight-channel Discrete Input (DI) modules monitor the status of relays, open collector/open drain type solid-state switches, and other two-state devices. Discrete Inputs come from relays, switches, and other devices, which generate an on/off, open/close, or high/low signal.


Revised July-2017


The DI module provides a source voltage for dry relay contacts or for an open-collector solid-state switch.

The DI module’s LEDs light when each input is active.

Each DI channel can be software-configured to function as a momentary or latched DI (see the ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User

Manual (for ROC800-Series) (part D301250X012 or the ROCLINK 800


D301246X012). A latched DI remains in the active state until reset.

Other parameters can invert the field signal and gather statistical information on the number of transitions and the time accumulated in the on- or off-state.

Caution

The Discrete Input module is designed for use with “dry” relay contacts or solid-state switches. Applied voltage in excess of 24 Vdc may damage the module.

The DI module senses the current flow, which signals the ROC800 electronics that the relay contacts have closed. The opening of the contacts interrupts the current flow and the DI module signals the

ROC800 electronics that the relay contacts have opened. Using

ROCLINK 800, you can set the scan rate between 4 and 43200 milliseconds.

4.6 Pulse Input (PI) Modules

The Pulse Input (PI) module provides two channels for measuring either a low speed or high speed pulse signal. The PI module processes signals from pulse-generating devices and provides a calculated rate or an accumulated total over a configured period. Supported functions are slow-counter input, slow rate input, fast counter input, and fast rate input.

The PI is most commonly used to interface to relays or open collector/open drain type solid-state devices. The Pulse Input can be used to interface to either self-powered or ROC800-powered devices.

The high speed input supports signals up to 12 kHz while the low speed input is used on signals less than 125 Hz.

You can configure the PI module as either 12 or 24 Volts dc using jumper J4 on the I/O module (see Figure 4-10 ). The PI modules can provide isolated +12 Volt dc or +24 Volt dc field transmitter power on a per-module basis. For example, one module can provide +12 Volt dc power, while another module in the same ROC800 can provide +24

Volt dc power. Refer to Figures 4-11 and 4-12 .

The PI module provides LEDs that light when each input is active.

Caution

The Pulse Input module is designed for use with “dry” relay contacts or solid-state switches. Applied voltage in excess of 24 Vdc may damage the module.

The PI modules draw power for the active circuitry from the backplane.

Input signals are optically isolated.

Note

:

Do not connect wiring to both the Low and High speed selections for a given channel. This results in unpredictable operation of the PI module.

4.7 Discrete Output (DO) Modules

The five-channel Discrete Output (DO) module provides two-state outputs to energize solid-state relays and power small electrical loads.

These are solid-state relays. A Discrete Output may be set to send a pulse to a specified device. Discrete Outputs are high and low outputs used to turn equipment on and off.

DO modules can be software-configured as latched, toggled, momentary, or Timed Duration Outputs (TDO). The DO can be


ROC800-Series Instruction Manual configured to either retain the last value on reset or use a user-specified fail-safe value.

The DO module provides LEDs that light when each output is active.

When a request is made to change the state of a DO, the request is immediately sent to the DO module. There is no scan time associated with a DO. Under normal operating conditions, the DO channel registers the change within 2 milliseconds.

If the DO is in momentary or toggle mode, you can enter a minimum time-on of 4 milliseconds.

Figure 4-13 displays the field wiring connections to the output circuit of the DO module.

Caution

The Discrete Output module is an open-drain type output. It is not capable of sourcing current or voltage to a load. Do not directly connect a power source to the terminal block.

DO modules draw power for the active circuitry from the backplane, and are current-limited for protection against excessive current.

Note

:

When using the Discrete Output module to drive an inductive load (such as a relay coil), place a suppression diode across the input terminals to the load. This protects the module from the reverse Electro-Motive Force (EMF) spike generated when the inductive load is switched off.

ROCLINK 800 provides a “virtual DO” software setting to support fieldbus devices, which may require the toggle characteristics of DO.

For further information, see the ROCLINK 800 Configuration

Software User Manual (for ROC800-Series) (part D301250X012) or the ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User Manual (for

ROC800L) (part D301246X012).

4.8 Discrete Output Relay (DOR) Modules

The five-channel DO Relay (DOR) module provides LEDs that light when each output is active. DOR modules use dual-state latching relays to provide a set of normally open, dry contacts capable of switching 2 A at 32 Volts dc across the complete operating temperature. Using

ROCLINK 800, you can configure the module as latched, toggled, momentary, or Timed Duration Outputs (TDO). The DOR can either retain the last value on reset or use a user-specified fail-safe value.

Note

:

Since the DOR latches, a power failure does not change the relay’s state. The relay retains the state (open or closed) it had upon failure.

Figure 4-14 displays the field wiring connections to the output circuit of the DOR module.

Caution

The Discrete Output module is designed as a “dry” relay contact.

Applied voltages in excess of 32 Vdc or any AC voltage may damage the module.

When a request is made to change the state of a DOR, the request is immediately sent to the DOR module. There is no scan time associated with a DOR. Under normal operating conditions, the DOR channel registers the change within 12 milliseconds. If the DOR is in momentary or toggle mode, DOR channels register the change within 48 milliseconds.

The DOR modules draw power for the active circuitry from the backplane.

Note

:

On power up or reset, the DO Relay module’s LEDs enter indeterminate state for a few seconds as the module selfidentifies. The LEDs may flash, stay on, or stay off for a few seconds.

4.9 Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) Input Modules

Connecting the RTD

Wiring

The Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) module monitors the temperature signal from an RTD source. The module can accommodate input from a two-, three-, or four-wire RTD source.

The active element of an RTD probe is a precision, temperaturedependent resistor made from a platinum alloy. The resistor has a predictable positive temperature coefficient, meaning its resistance increases with temperature. The RTD input module works by supplying a small consistent current to the RTD probe and measuring the voltage drop across it. Based on the voltage curve of the RTD, the ROC800 firmware converts the signal to temperature.

The RTD input module monitors the temperature signal from a resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensor or probe. A two-channel

16-bit RTD module is available. The RTD module isolation includes the power supply connections.

The RTD modules draw power for the active circuitry from lines on the backplane.

It may be more convenient to perform calibration before connecting the field wiring. However, if the field wiring between the ROC800 and the

RTD probe is long enough to add a significant resistance, then perform calibration in a manner that considers this.

Temperature can be input through the Resistance Temperature

Detector (RTD) probe and circuitry. An RTD temperature probe mounts directly to the piping using a thermowell. Protect RTD wires either by a metal sheath or by conduit connected to a liquid-tight conduit fitting. The RTD wires connect to the four screw terminals on



4-Wire RTD

Red the RTD module. See Table 4-1 , Table 4-2 , and Figure 4-15 .

The ROC800 provides terminations for a four-wire 100-ohm platinum

RTD with a DIN 43760 curve. The RTD module supports RTDs with alphas equal to 0.00385 or 0.00392



C. You can use a two-wire or three-wire RTD probe instead of a four-wire probe, but they may produce measurement errors due to signal loss on the wiring.

Wiring between the RTD probe and the ROC800 must be shielded wire, with the shield grounded only at one end to prevent ground loops.

Ground loops cause RTD input signal errors.

4.10 Advanced Pulse Module (APM)

The APM provides advanced functionality commonly found in liquids and gas measurement programs, including support for densitometer inputs, detector inputs, pulse inputs, pulse frequencies, pulse outputs, and proving. Field wiring (see Figures 4-16 through 4-24 ) and DIP switch settings (see Figure 4-25 and Table 4-3 ) provide this flexibility.

Note

:

The ROC800 can support up to 27 APMs.

You can connect densitometer inputs to any channel. However, for current-modulated densitometers (such as the Micro Motion – formerly

Solartron – 7835/7845 densitometer), you can designate channel 3 as a pulse input using a frequency input channel with hardware filtering.

You can also designate channel 4 as a pulse input or a solid state pulse output.

4.11 Multi-Variable Sensor Input/Output (MVS I/O)

MVS I/O or

MVS Module?

The Multi-Variable Sensor Input/Output (MVS I/O) module provides an interface to a sensor that provides differential pressure, static pressure, and temperature inputs for the ROC800 for orifice flow calculation.

Remote Automation Solutions offers both an MVS and an MVS I/O module. These modules have identical functions and differ only by where you can place them in the ROC800.

You can place the MVS module (shown on the left side of Figure 4-26 ) only in the first three slots of a ROC800. The enhanced design of the

MVS I/O module (shown on the right side of Figure 4-26 ) enables you to place it in any available slot on the ROC800. In most other ways the two modules are identical.



4-22

Figure 4-26. MVS and MVS I/O Modules

The MVS I/O module consists of interface electronics that provide the communications link between the ROC800 and the MVS devices. The interface electronics controls communications with the sensor module, provides scaling of process variables, aids calibration, stores operating parameters, performs protocol conversion, and responds to requests from the ROC800.

Each MVS I/O module provides the communications interface and the isolated, short-circuit current-limited power required to connect up to six MVS sensors.

Note

:

You can install up to two MVS modules per ROC800. This limit does not apply to the MVS I/O module.

The MVS I/O module automatically creates six points, one for each of the six possible MVS channels: 1 – 6 (for one MVS I/O) and 7 – 12 (for a second MVS module). The system assigns points based on which module is in the first slot. For example, if an MVS module is in slot 3, the system automatically assigns it points 1 – 6. If you then install a second MVS module into slot 1, the system re-assigns points so that slot

1 now holds points 1 – 6 and slot 3 holds points 7 – 12.

The ROC800 allows six MVS devices to be connected on its communications bus in a multi-drop connection scheme. You must set the address of each MVS device prior to final wiring of multiple MVS devices. For proper operation of multiple MVS devices, each MVS device must have a unique address. None of the addresses can be 240.

For details on MVS configuration, refer to the ROCLINK 800


D301250X012) or ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User Manual

(for ROC800L) (part D301246X012).

Once you set a unique address for each MVS, connect the MVS units in a multi-drop arrangement. The only requirement for wiring multi-drop devices is that you tie all like terminals together. This means all the “A”


A

B

ROC800-Series Instruction Manual terminals on the devices are electrically connected to the ROC800’s “A” terminal and so on. Wire each remote MVS transmitter in parallel

4.12 Alternating Current Input/Output (AC I/O) Module

Warning

Switchable I/O and

LEDs

EMC issues restrict the use of the AC I/O module only to devices using a PM-12 power module. You cannot use the AC I/O module in a device that uses either a PM-24 or PM-30 power module.

The module has one bank of six DIP switches on its daughterboard

(see Figure 4-31 ), which controls the input/output status of each of the six channels. Placing a switch in the ON position sets the corresponding channel to output mode. Placing a switch in the OFF position sets the channel to input mode. Dual-color light-emitting diodes (LEDs) indicate the current status for each channel. Red means

AC source is being output. Green means the module has detected AC on an input channel.

Figure 4-32. AC I/O DIP Switches

AC Discrete Outputs In output mode, the module provides up to six channels for switching discrete AC. Each channel uses a solid-state normally open relay rated at 1.5 Amps. Any AC switched out is directly related to the AC switched in. Using ROCLINK 800, you can configure the module as latched, toggled, momentary, or Timed Duration Outputs (TDOs).

Other parameters report the approximate load, over-current conditions, and AC input status. Discrete outputs can be configured to either retain the last value on reset or a user-specified fail-safe value.

See Figure 4-33 .

Note

:

If the label on your AC I/O module does not indicate 120/240V, your module is designed for use only with 120V. Additionally, all AC wiring must be shielded.

AC Discrete Inputs You can configure each channel as an AC input/detector. Each channel can detect the presence of an AC signal between 90 and 265

Vrms at 47 to 63 Hz. In discrete input mode the module monitors the status of various AC sources.

You can also software-configure each channel to function as a latched

DI, which remains in active state until reset. Other parameters can invert the field signal and gather statistical information on the number of transitions and the time accumulated in the on or off state. The fastest time that each channel within the module can be read is 20 times per second. See Figure 4-34.

Definition

The AC power applied to this terminal is the source for any channel that is configured as an output. The input to this terminal should be externally fused with a 10 to 15 amp fuse. The channel has a green LED associated with it to indicate when power is applied. This terminal is typically wired to the permissive/safety circuitry so that if this circuit trips, all power is removed from the channels that are configured as AC outputs.

This terminal is connected to the system AC neutral and is used a reference for all AC power.

Depending upon the configuration of the DIP switch, each channel can be configured as an input or an output.

4.13 Thermocouple (TC) Input Module

Caution The TC2 module is NOT supported in the Series 1 CPU.

The four-channel Thermocouple Input module monitors types B, C, E,

J, K, N, R, S, or T thermocouples, based on how you configure the module with ROCLINK 800 Configuration software. The type of thermocouple refers to the material used to make a bimetallic junction.

Dissimilar materials in the junction generate different millivolt levels as a function of the heat to which the materials are exposed.

The Thermocouple module measures the voltage of the thermocouple to which it is connected. The TC voltage is measured and a Cold Junction

Compensation (CJC) correction factor is applied to compensate for


ROC800-Series Instruction Manual errors due to any voltage inducted at the wiring terminals by the junction between the different metal of the TC wiring and the TC module’s terminal blocks.

Note

:

The use of dissimilar metals is not supported. It does not provide the correct results, as CJC is applied at the module level.

Thermocouples are self-powered and require no excitation current. The

TC module uses integrated short-circuit protected isolated power supplies and completely isolates the field wiring side of the module from the backplane.

Caution

If using the Type J above 750°C (1382°F), abrupt magnetic transformation causes permanent de-calibration of the TC wires.

De-calibration De-calibration can occur in thermocouple wires. De-calibration is the process of unintentionally altering the makeup of the thermocouple, usually caused by the diffusion of atmospheric particles into the metal at the extremes of the operating temperature range. Impurities and chemicals can cause de-calibration from the insulation diffusing into the thermocouple wire. If operating at high temperatures, check the specification of the probe insulation. It is advised to use thermocouples with insulated junctions to protect against oxidation and contamination.

Thermocouples use thin wire (typically 32 AWG) to minimize thermal shunting and increase response times. Wire size used in the thermocouple depends upon the application. Typically, when longer life is required for the higher temperatures, select the larger size wires.

When sensitivity is the prime concern, use smaller size wiring. Thin wire causes the thermocouple to have a high resistance that can cause errors due to the input impedance of the measuring instrument. If thermocouples with thin leads or long cables are required, keep the thermocouple leads short and use a thermocouple extension wire to run between the thermocouple and measuring instrument.

The thermocouple connects directly to the module’s removable terminal block (see Figure 4-35 ). No special terminal or isothermal block is required.



Figure 4-35. Thermocouple Input Module Wiring

Be sure to use the correct type of thermocouple wire to connect the thermocouple to the ROC800. Minimize connections and make sure connections are tight. If you use any dissimilar metals (such as copper wire) to connect a thermocouple to the ROC800, you can create the junction of dissimilar metals that can generate millivolt signals and increase reading errors.

Ensure any plugs, sockets, or terminal blocks used to connect the extension wire are made from the same metals as the thermocouples and observe correct polarity.

The thermocouple probe must have sufficient length to minimize the effect of conduction of heat from the hot end of the thermocouple.

Unless there is insufficient immersion, readings will be low. It is suggested the thermocouple be immersed for a minimum distance equivalent to four times the outside diameter of a protection tube or well.

Use only ungrounded thermocouple constructions.

Grounded thermocouples are susceptible to the creation of ground loops. In turn, ground loops can cause interaction between thermocouple channels on the thermocouple module.

Note

:

Use thermocouples as individual sensing devices. All modules are isolated on the field side. Be aware that you can induce ground loops by tying module-to-module commons together.

Noise Susceptibility Millivolt signals are very small and are very susceptible to noise.

Noise from stray electrical and magnetic fields can generate voltage signals higher than the millivolt levels generated from a thermocouple. The TC modules can reject common mode noise

(signals that are the same on both wires), but rejection is not perfect, so minimize noise where possible.



Caution

Take care to properly shield thermocouple wiring from noise by separating the thermocouple wiring runs from signals that are switching loads and AC signals. Route wires away from noisy areas and twist the two insulated leads of the thermocouple cable together to help ensure both wires pick up the same noise. When operating in an extremely noisy environment, use a shielded extension cable.

Shielded wiring is highly recommended. Ground shields only on one end, preferably at the end device unless you have an excellent ground system installed at the ROC800-series controller. Do not tie the thermocouple module to ground.

Sheathed thermocouple probes are available with one of three junction types: grounded, ungrounded, or exposed.

Figure 4-36. Ungrounded –

Sheathed

Figure 4-37. Grounded Figure 4-38. Exposed,

Ungrounded – Unsheathed

In an ungrounded probe, the thermocouple junction is detached from the probe wall. Response time slows down from the grounded style, but the ungrounded probe offers electrical isolation of 1.5 M



at 500 Volts dc in all diameters. The wiring may or may not be sheathed.

Note

:

Only ungrounded probes are supported. It is highly recommended that you use sheathed probes.

Use an ungrounded junction for measurements in corrosive environments where it is desirable to have the thermocouple electronically isolated from and shielded by the sheath. The welded wire thermocouple is physically insulated from the thermocouple sheath by

MgO powder (soft).

At the tip of a grounded junction probe, the thermocouple wires physically attach to the inside of the probe wall. This results in good heat transfer from the outside, through the probe wall to the thermocouple junction. Grounded wiring is not supported.

The thermocouple in the exposed junction protrudes out of the tip of the sheath and is exposed to the surrounding environment. This type offers the best response time, but is limited in use to non-corrosive and nonpressurized applications. Exposed junction thermocouples are not supported.

Note

:

Avoid subjecting the thermocouple connections and measurement instrument to sudden changes in temperature.



4.14 Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART

®

) Module

Note

:

The HART-2 module (labeled HART-2 with black faceplate) replaces the HART module (with gray faceplate).

The HART-2 module allows a ROC800 to communicate with HART devices using the HART protocol. The HART-2 module receives signals from and transmit signals to HART devices. LEDs provide a visual indication of the status of each HART channel. Refer to Figure 4-

40 .

Note

:

HART Pass-Through requires you to use the HART Pass-

Through license key (FS8KY-6), which provides PlantWeb

®

Smart Remote Automation functionality. This includes the ability to pass HART data bi-directionally through the network to AMS

™

Device Manager software.

The module has four input/output channels. The HART-2 module uses software-configurable switches, which allow you to set each channel as input or output. When you set a channel as an input, you can configure it for use in point-to-point or multi-drop mode (which typically connects to some type of transmitter, such as a temperature reading). When you configure a channel as an output, it reverts to point-to-point mode only .

The output supports a Digital Valve Controller (DVC). Each channel has analog input capability intended for diagnostic and primary process variable measurement.

Frequency

Shift Keying

HART superimposes Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) signals on an analog signal. This technique allows digital information to be passed to and from the HART device on a 4 to 20 mA analog signal.

Point-to-Point Mode In point-to-point mode, the analog signal is still representative of the measured variable. This mode allows communications with one

HART device per channel.

Multi-drop Mode In multi-drop mode , you can connect up to five HART devices (in parallel) to each channel. As with the point-to-point mode, digital communications are superimposed on the analog signal used to power the HART devices. Each HART device in multi-drop mode requires 4 mA and the current does not represent any measured variable value.

With all four channels in the multi-drop mode, the ROC800 can support a maximum of twenty HART devices.

A ROC800 equipped with a HART-2 module is considered to be a

HART Host (primary master) interface with a Class 1 Conformance classification. The HART-2 module can also be configured with

ROCLINK 800 Configuration software for use as a secondary master in redundant applications.

Most Universal and some Common Practice commands are supported.

For a list of the commands, refer to the ROC800-Series HART Module technical specification sheet ( ROC800:HART2 ). The supported


ROC800-Series Instruction Manual commands conform to HART Universal Command Specification

Revision 5.1 and Common Practice Command Specification Revision 7,

(HCF SPEC 127 and 151). Refer to www.hartcomm.org

for more information on the specifications.

The HART-2 module polls the channels simultaneously. If more than one device is connected to a channel in a multi-drop configuration, the module polls one device per channel at a time. The HART protocol allows one second per poll for each device, so with five devices per channel the maximum poll time for the channel would be five seconds.

Note

:

The ROC800 does not support HART devices configured in

Burst mode (in which the device sends information without a prior request). If you have a HART device configured in burst mode, use a hand-held field communicator to turn off burst mode before you connect the device to the ROC800.

The HART-2 module provides “loop source” power (+T) and four channels (1+ through 4+) for communications. The +T power is currentlimited.

ROC-powered

HART Devices

When using the ROC800 to power HART devices, connect terminal

+T in parallel to the positive (+) terminal on all of the HART devices, regardless of the channel to which they are connected.

Wire channel 1+ to the negative (–) terminal of a single HART device, or in parallel to the negative terminals of the devices. Likewise, wire channel 2+ to the negative (–) terminal of a single HART device, or in parallel to the negative terminals of a second group of HART devices

(see Figure 4-39 ).

Externally powered

HART Devices

When powering HART devices by an external device, connect the positive (+) terminal from the power source in parallel to the positive

(+) terminal on all of the HART devices, regardless of the channel to which they are connected.

Wire channel 1+ on the HART-2 module to the positive (+) terminal of the HART device. Connect the power source negative (–) terminal to the channel’s COM terminal and to the negative (–) terminal of a single

HART device, or in parallel to the negative terminals of the HART devices.

4.15 IEC 62591 Module

The IEC 62591 Interface module allows a ROC800-Series Remote

Operations Controller (ROC800) to communicate with any mix of up to

60 Wireless HART™ field devices. The module supports monitoring of both the process information contained in the remote terminal unit

(RTU) and the intelligent diagnostic information residing in the

Wireless HART field devices.



Installation and

Configuration

The IEC 62591 Interface consists of two parts: the Smart Wireless Field

Link that provides the radio link to the Wireless HART field devices, and the IEC 62591 Interface Module that installs into the ROC800.

The IEC 62591 Interface module connects to the Smart Wireless Field

Link through a four-wire connection. This allows the Smart Wireless

Field Link to be strategically placed away from the controller in the optimal location for best network performance. The module provides

12 Vdc loop-output to power the Smart Wireless Field Link.

You can install one IEC 62591 Interface module in any slot on a

ROC800. Modules can be easily installed or removed from the module slots at any time by removing the two captive screws accessible from the front of the unit.

IEC 62591 Interface modules are hot-swappable, meaning the module can be removed and another module of the same kind can be installed.

IEC 62591 Interface modules are hot-pluggable, meaning they may be installed directly into unused module slots under power.

The module has a removable terminal block for convenient wiring and servicing. The terminal block can accommodate size 24 to 16 American

Wire Gauge (AWG). A USB port is provided on the module to perform firmware updates and to provide debug information to support personnel.

4.16 APP 485 Module

The Application module (APP 485) provides a solution to add user applications to the ROC800-Series (ROC800) by simply installing a module. The APP 485 module streamlines the installation process by including all point types and screens associated with the application, and the module is automatically recognized by ROC800 firmware. In addition to the user application, the APP 485 module provides an onboard RS-485 communications port that enables communications without utilizing one of the built-in communications ports on the

ROC800.

APP 485 modules can house a variety of applications including Modbus express and more. For more information about available applications, contact your sales representative.

The APP 485 module enables the ROC800 to communicate directly with field devices using the EIA-485 (RS-485) communications port included on the module. The module serves as an interface between the field devices and the ROC800. Supported protocols include Modbus host and slave (RTU or ASCII) and ROC. LEDs on terminals A and B provide you with visual feedback on communication activity status.

5.1 Communication Ports and Modules Overview

The built-in communication ports and the optional communication modules provide communications between the ROC800 and a host system or external devices.

The ROC800 supports up to six communication ports. The CPU provides three built-in communication ports. You can add up to three additional ports with communication modules. Table 5-1 displays the types of communication options available for the ROC800.

5.2 Installing Communication Modules

All communication modules install into the ROC800 in the same way.

Caution

The design of ROC800-Series communication and I/O modules supports

“hot-swapping” (replacing similar modules in the same slot) and “hotplugging” (inserting modules into an empty slot) while the ROC800 is powered. However, it is a good safety practice with any electrical device to first remove power before you make internal connections. If you find it necessary to hot-swap or hot-plug a module, first review the most current specification sheet for that module to ensure both your safety and the integrity of data that module may provide.

Modules are self-identifying in the software and all modules are selfresetting after a fault clears.

Note

:

The dial-up modem module is neither hot-swappable nor hotpluggable.

When you install a dial-up modem module, you must remove power from the ROC800.

Communications 5-3


Note

:

With the exception of the HART module, you can install communication modules only in slots 1, 2, or 3 of the ROC800.

Refer to Figure 5-1 and Table 5-1 .


Note

:

Leaving the wire channel cover in place can prevent the module from correctly connecting to the socket on the backplane.

2. Perform one of the following:



If there is a module currently in the slot, unscrew the captive screws and remove that module (refer to Removing a

Communication Module ).



If the slot is currently empty, remove the module cover.

3. Insert the new module through the module slot on the front of the

ROC800 or EXP housing. Make sure the label on the front of the module is facing right side up. Gently slide the module in place until it contacts properly with the connectors on the backplane.

Note

:

If the module stops and will not go any further, do not force the module. Remove the module and see if the pins are bent.

If so, gently straighten the pins and re-insert the module. The back of the module must connect fully with the connectors on the backplane.

4. Gently press the module into its mating connectors on the backplane until the connectors firmly seat.

5. Tighten the retaining captive screws on the front of the module.

6. Wire the module (refer to Wiring Communication Modules ).

Note

:

All modules have removable terminal blocks for convenient wiring and servicing. Twisted-pair cable is recommended for

I/O signal wiring. The removable terminal blocks accept 12 to 22 AWG wire.

7. For dial-up modem communication, connect the cable to the RJ-11 connector on the communication module.

Note

:

If you are installing a modem module, it is recommended that you install a surge protector between the RJ-11 jack and the outside line.

9. Connect to ROCLINK 800 software and login. The modules are self-identifying after re-connecting to ROCLINK 800 software.

5.3 Removing a Communication Module

To remove a communication module:


2. Unscrew the two captive screws holding the module in place.

3. Gently pull the module’s lip out and remove the module from the slot. You may need to gently wiggle the module.

4. Install a new module or install the module cover.

5. Screw the two captive screws to hold the module cover in place.


5.4 Wiring Communication Modules

Caution

You make signal wiring connections to communication through the communication port’s removable terminal block connectors and through

RJ-11 and RJ-45 connectors. All modules have removable terminal blocks for convenient wiring and servicing. The terminal blocks can accept 12 to 22 AWG wire.



1. Bare the end (¼ inch maximum) of the wire.

2. Insert the bared end into the clamp beneath the termination screw.

3. Tighten the screw.


Note

:

All modules have removable terminal blocks for convenient wiring and servicing. Twisted-pair cable is recommended for I/O signal wiring. The removable terminal blocks accept 12 to 22

AWG wire.

5.5 Local Operator Interface (LOI)

The Local Operator Interface (LOI) port (see Figure 5-1 ) provides direct communication between the ROC800 and the serial port of an operator


ROC800-Series Instruction Manual interface device, such as a personal computer running Microsoft

®

Windows

®

. The interface allows you to access the ROC800 with a direct connection using ROCLINK 800 software to configure and transfer stored data.

The LOI uses the Local Port in ROCLINK 800 software.

The LOI terminal (RJ-45) on the CPU provides wiring access to a builtin EIA-232 (RS-232) serial interface, which is capable of 57.6K baud operation. The RJ-45 connector pin uses the data terminal equipment

(DTE) in the IEEE standard.

The LOI port supports ROC Plus and Modbus protocol communication.

The LOI also supports the log-on security feature of the ROC800 if you have enabled the Security on LOI in the ROCLINK 800 software.

Table 5-3 shows the signal routing of the CPU connections. Figure 5-3 shows the RJ-45 pin out.

5.5.1 Using the LOI

1. Plug the LOI cable into the LOI RJ-45 connector of the ROC800.

2. Connect the LOI cable to the D-Sub 9 pin (F) to RJ-45 modular converter.

3. Plug the modular converter into the COM port of the PC.

4. Launch ROCLINK 800 software.

5. Click the Direct Connect icon on the ROCLINK 800 tool bar.

6. Configure communication for the other built-in and modular communications, I/O modules, AGA meter parameters, and other configuration parameters.

5.6 Ethernet Communication

Default TCP/IP

The Ethernet communication port in the ROC800 supports TCP/IP protocol communication using the IEEE 802.3 10Base-T standard. One application of this communication port is to download programs from

DS800 Development Suite Configuration Software.

The ROC800 uses the following factory defaults:



TCP/IP: 10.0.02



Gateway: 10.0.0.1



Subnet Mast: 255.255.255.0

The Ethernet communication port uses a 10BASE-T Ethernet interface with an RJ-45 connector. Each Ethernet-equipped unit is called a

“station” and operates independently of all other stations on the network without a central controller. All attached stations connect to a shared media system. Signals are broadcast over the medium to every attached station. To send an Ethernet packet, a station listens to the medium

(Carrier Sense) and when the medium is idle, the station transmits the data. Each station has an equal chance to transmit (Multiple Access).



The Medium Access Control (MAC) mechanism embedded in each station interface determines access to the shared medium. The MAC mechanism is based on Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision

Detection (CSMA/CD). If two stations begin to transmit a packet at the same instant, the stations stop transmitting (Collision Detection).

Transmission is rescheduled at a random time interval to avoid the collision.

You can link Ethernet networks together to form extended networks using bridges and routers.

Use a rugged industrial temperature HUB when connecting Ethernet wiring in an environment that requires it.

The IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standard requires that 10BASE-T transceivers be able to transmit over a link using voice grade twistedpair telephone wiring that meets EIA/TIA Category four wire specifications. Generally, links up to 100 meters (328 feet) long can be achieved for unshielded twisted-pair cable.

For each connector or patch panel in the link, subtract 12 meters (39.4 feet) from the 100-meter limit. This allows for links of up to 88 meters

(288 feet) using standard 24 AWG UTP (Unshielded Twisted-Pair) wire and two patch panels within the link. Higher quality, low attenuation cables may be required when using links greater than 88 meters.

The maximum insertion loss allowed for a 10BASE-T link is 11.5 dB at all frequencies between 5.0 and 10.0 MHz. This includes the attenuation of the cables, connectors, patch panels, and reflection losses due to impedance mismatches to the link segment.

Intersymbol interference and reflections can cause jitter in the bit cell timing, resulting in data errors. A 10BASE-T link must not generate more than 5.0 nanoseconds of jitter. If your cable meets the impedance requirements for a 10BASE-T link, jitter should not be a concern.

The maximum propagation delay of a 10BASE-T link segment must not exceed 1000 nanoseconds.



Signal coupling between the different cable pairs contained within a multi-pair cable bundle causes “crosstalk.” 10BASE-T transceivers are designed so that you do not need to be concerned about cable crosstalk, provided the cable meets all other requirements.

Noise can be caused by crosstalk of externally induced impulses.

Impulse noise may cause data errors if the impulses occur at very specific times during data transmission. Generally, do not be concerned about noise. If you suspect noise related data errors, it may be necessary to either reroute the cable or eliminate the source of the impulse noise.

Multi-pair, PVC 24 AWG telephone cables have an attenuation of approximately 8 to 10 dB/100 m at 200°C (392°F). The attenuation of

PVC insulted cable varies significantly with temperature. At temperatures greater than 400°C (752°F), use plenum-rated cables to ensure that cable attenuation remains within specification.

When connecting two twisted-pair Medium Attachment Units (MAUs) or repeaters together over a segment, wire the transmit data pins of one eight-pin connector to the receive data pins of the other connector, and vice versa. There are two methods for accomplishing 10BASE-T crossover wiring:



Using special cable.



Wiring the 10BASE-T crossover inside the hub.

For a single segment connecting only two devices, provide the signal crossover by building a special crossover cable, wire the transmit data pins of one eight-pin connector to the receive data pins of the other connector, and vice versa. Refer to Figure 5-4 .

EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) communication provides EIA-422/485 (RS-

422/485) signals on the Comm3, Comm4, or Comm5 port, depending on where you have installed the module. Wiring should be twisted-pair cable, one pair for transmitting, and one pair for receiving. The EIA-422

(RS-422) module uses four wires and the EIA-485 (RS-485) uses two wires for connectivity.

5.8.1 EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) Jumpers & Termination Resistors

Four jumpers—J3, J4, J5, and J6—are located on the EIA-422/485 (RS-

422/485) communication module (see Figure 5-5 ). These jumpers determine the mode in which the module runs (RS-422 or RS-485) and if the module is terminated.



Terminations are required on the two EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) communication modules located at the extremities of the circuit. That is to say, the two outside modules require terminations in order to complete the communication circuit.

5.9 Dial-up Modem Communication Module

The dial-up modem module interfaces to a Public-Switched Telephone

Network (PSTN) line, and requires a telephone line connection. The module provides a telephone interface on the host port that is capable of both answering and originating telephone calls. The module also provides electronics that conserve power when the phone line is not in use.

Note

:

When installing a dial-up modem module, you must remove power from the ROC800.

The dial-up modem provides communication with speeds up to 14.4

Kbps with V.42 bis and V.42, MNP2-4 and MNP10 error correction, and is FCC Part 68 approved for use with PSTNs. The FCC label on the module provides the FCC registration number and the ringer equivalent.

The module supports data compression, error correction, and nonvolatile RAM for permanent storage of the modem configuration.

Using asynchronous operation, the module interfaces to two-wire, fullduplex telephone lines. It interfaces to a PSTN through an RJ-11 jack.

You control the modem using industry-standard AT command software.

A 40-character command line is provided for the AT command set, which is compatible with EIA document TR302.2/88-08006.

The dial-up modem automatically hangs up after a user-configured period of communication inactivity and provides automated dial-up alarm reporting capabilities. Refer to the ROCLINK 800 Configuration

Software User Manual (for ROC800-Series) ( part D301250X012 ) or the



If you are installing a modem module, it is recommended that you install a surge protector between the RJ-11 jack and the outside line.



The dial-up modem is not hot-swappable or hot-pluggable. When installing a dial-up modem module, you must remove power from the ROC800.

5.10 Multi-Variable Sensor (MVS) Interface Module

The Multi-Variable Sensor (MVS) module provides an interface to a sensor that supplies differential pressure, static pressure, and temperature inputs to the ROC827 for orifice flow calculation.

The enhanced design of the MVS I/O module (shown on the right side of Figure 5-6 ) enables you to place it in any available slot on the

ROC800. In all other ways the two modules are identical.

Figure 5-6. MVS I/O Module

For further technical information about the MVS or MVS I/O modules, see the description of the MVS I/O module in Chapter 4 .

5.11 Network Radio Module (NRM)

The Network Radio Module (NRM) is an integral part of the Distributed

RTU Network and allows ROC800-Series (ROC800) to communicate wirelessly. It has the ability to broadcast and detect information from other RTUs for easier and faster interconnection and communication setup.



The NRM provides a wireless solution of transferring data from RTU to another RTU within the Distributed RTU Network (DRN). The data can be any type of information that the RTU has in its database, such as I/O, soft points, or other information.

The NRM includes a FreeWave radio to handle the wireless data transmission. The radio utilizes TDMA technology, and allows for multiple networks (with unique Network IDs and Frequency hop Keys) to be located in close proximity to each other without experiencing signal degradation.

The NRM is designed to be plug-and-play and requires no wiring. The

NRM can be installed in slot 1, 2, or 3 in the ROC800-Series 2 RTU.

This calculated value should be within one-tenth of one percent of the Filter value the ROC800 measures.

7. Verify the accuracy by reading the loop current with a multimeter, setting the multimeter to measure current in mA, and connecting it in series with current loop. Be sure to take into account that input values can change rapidly, which can cause a greater error between the measured value and the calculated value.

8. Calculate the Value from the mAmp reading of the multimeter:

Value = [((mAmpmultimeter* Rscaling resistor – 1) * 4) * Span] + Low

Reading EU where Span = High Reading EU – Low Reading EU and Rscaling resistor should be 250 ohms (factory installed scaling resistor value).

Note

:

If the calculated value and the measured value are the same, the AI module is operating correctly.

6.3.10 Troubleshooting Thermocouple Input (T/C) Modules

Note

:

The TC2 module is not supported in the Series 1 ROC800 CPU.

Many digital multimeters can generate and measure thermocouple (T/C) signals. Check the manufacturer’s documentation for your multimeter to see if it supports thermocouples and how to correctly use the feature if so equipped. You may require an optional T/C adaptor to use the multimeter.

To test a thermocouple, do not parallel the voltage meter on a thermocouple that is connected to a ROC800, as it will distort the signal.

Do not try to verify a thermocouple that is connected and actively being monitored by a ROC800 by measuring the voltage at the ROC800 terminal blocks.

It is suggested that you independently verify the process temperature, by using a certified thermometer in an adjacent thermowell, and then compare it to what the ROC800 is reading.

Caution




Multimeter






Revised July-2017


To test the thermocouple module:

1. Disconnect the thermocouple from the thermocouple module.

2. Generate the correct J or K signal using a multimeter and connect the wiring from the multimeter to the T/C module.

3. Verify the ROC is reading the generated temperature from the multimeter.


To test the thermocouple:

1. Disconnect the thermocouple from the ROC800.

2. Connect the thermocouple directly to the multimeter and verify the reading is correct by comparing it to a certified temperature measurement device connected to the process temperature the T/C is measuring.


Unintentional thermocouple junctions cause many measurement errors.

Remember that any junction of two different metals will cause a thermocouple junction. To increase the length of the leads from the thermocouple, use the correct type of thermocouple extension wire. Any connector must be made of the correct thermocouple material and correct polarity must be observed.

If the reading is off :

1. The type J or K thermocouples are selected on a per channel basis on the thermocouple module. Verify each channel on the ROC800 and make sure it is set for the type of thermocouple that you are using.

2. Ensure any plugs, sockets, or terminal blocks used to connect the extension wire are made from the same metals as the thermocouples and correct polarity is observed.

3. Verify all connections are tight.

4. Verify the thermocouples have the correct construction (ungrounded) and are not grounded by other means.

5. Verify you are using the correct thermocouple wire all the way from the thermocouple to the ROC800 with minimal connections.

6. Verify the wiring run is adequately protected from noise.

7. Test the thermocouple reading from the thermocouple to a meter, and then generate a signal into the ROC800 as described previously.

8. Finally, connect a thermocouple of the same type directly to the

ROC800. If it reads correctly, the problem is likely to be in the wiring to the field or may be related to a ground loop.

6.3.12 Network Radio Modules

To verify connectivity of the Network Radio Module:

1. Check the module status and LEDs if you are already configured and joined to a network.

2. Verify COM status for the commissioned devices by looking at the

RL800 RTU commission list.

3. Verify that Access Points have unique settings for the Network ID and Channel.





If a duplicate Network ID and Channel exists on the network, a node may indicate connectivity to a Network but will not appear in the Discovery list.



A node will not appear on the Access Points Discovery list if there is a second unit setup as an access point.

4. If you are still experiencing trouble with a Network Radio Module, check for any possible physical interference from the environment:



Raise antennas above obstructions like trees or compressors. For best communication, the antennas must have line of sight.

 Mount antennas outside of metal enclosures. Antennas must have at least 10 feet of vertical separation from other antennas.



Check for mismatched antennas. Avoid using the incorrect antenna for the frequency of radio. Make sure that the antenna used is for the frequency range of the radio.



Check if the cable runs are too long or if the cable is of the wrong type. Less than 3 dB of loss for the entire cable run is recommended. LMR-400 has 3.8dB of loss per 100 feet. The recommended maximum is 75 feet.



Waterproof all cable connections. If water gets into the cable, it can cause high VSWR/antenna reflect power.

Calibration Overview ........................................................................ 7-1

7.2

Calibration Frequency ...................................................................... 7-1

7.3

Preparing for Calibration .................................................................. 7-2

This chapter provides overview information about calibration procedures for the Analog Input (AI) modules, HART module, RTD

Input module, and Multi-Variable Sensor modules (MVS and MVS

I/O).

Caution

For the full calibration procedure, refer Refer to the ROCLINK 800




Before beginning the calibration process, determine if the module is used in a control application. If the module is part of a control application, ensure the system is off-line before proceeding.

7.1 Calibration Overview

Use ROCLINK 800 Configuration software to perform initial calibration or re-calibration of the inputs on the AI, HART, RTD, and

MVS modules. For example, you might re-calibrate after changing an orifice plate in the meter run the ROC800 handles. You can perform calibrations on sensor inputs from either orifice meter runs or turbine meter runs.

The AI, MVS, and RTD calibration routines support five-point calibration, with the three mid-points calibrated in any order. You calibrate the low-end (zero reading) first, followed by the high-end

(full-scale) reading. You then calibrate up to three mid-points, if necessary.

The HART calibration routine supports two-point calibration. You calibrate the low-end or zero reading is calibrated first, followed by the high-end or full-scale reading.

Note

:

The Analog Inputs are not designed to be calibrated.

7.2 Calibration Frequency

Remote Automation Solutions recommends that your organization establish a routine—quarterly, semi-annual, or annual—pattern of verification and/or calibration for devices and software that meets or exceeds the API 21.1 recommended practices.

Revised July-2017 Calibration 7-1


Establishing verification and calibration routines ensures not only that your devices and software are functioning optimally but that your organization is in compliance with appropriate industry and governmental requirements.

7.3 Preparing for Calibration

Before calibrating the inputs from a sensor, HART device, or other device, you should prepare the ROC800.

1. Verify the inputs are correctly wired. For information on wiring the inputs, refer to Chapter 4, Input/Output Modules .

2. If you are calibrating a pressure sensor input, be sure to remove the sensor from the flow as directed in the calibration procedure in the

ROCLINK 800 Configuration Software User Manual (for ROC800-

Series) (part D301250X012)or the ROCLINK 800 Configuration

Software User Manual (for ROC800L) (part D301246X012).

3. Verify that you have connected any external monitoring devices

(such as multimeters) to the ROC800, if they are required for the calibration.
