User Manual MN032006EN

Effective May 2018 knowledge of safety design considerations.

ELPRO products use communications channels that are subject to noise and interference. The products are designed to operate in the presence of noise and interference, but in an extreme case noise and interference can cause product operation delays or operation failure. Like all industrial electronic products, ELPRO products can fail in a variety of modes due to misuse, age, or malfunction. We recommend that users and designers design systems using design techniques intended to prevent personal injury or damage during product operation, and provide failure tolerant systems to prevent personal injury or damage in the event of product failure. Designers must warn users of the equipment or systems if adequate protection against failure has not been included in the system design. Designers must include this Important Notice in operating procedures and system manuals.

These products should not be used in non-industrial applications, or life-support systems, without first consulting Eaton.

To avoid accidents during maintenance or adjustment of remotely controlled equipment, all equipment should be first disconnected from the 415U module during these adjustments. Equipment should carry clear markings to indicate remote or automatic operation. For example: “This equipment is remotely controlled and may start without warning. Isolate at the switchboard before attempting adjustments.”

The 415U modules are not suitable for use in explosive environments without additional protection.

The 415U modules operate proprietary protocols to communicate.

Nevertheless, if your system is not adequately secured, third parties may be able to gain access to your data or gain control of your equipment via the radio link. Before deploying a system, make sure that you have carefully considered the security aspects of your installation.

Deployment of Eaton products in customer environment

There is increasing concern regarding cybersecurity across industries, where companies are steadily integrating field devices into enterprise-wide information systems. This is why Eaton has incorporated secure development life cycle in their product development to ensure that cybersecurity is addressed at all levels of development and commissioning of our products.

There is no protection method that is completely secure.

Industrial Control Systems continue to be the target for attacks.

The complexities of these attacks make it very difficult to have a complete secure system. A defense mechanism that is effective today may not be effective tomorrow as the ways and means of cyber-attacks constantly change. Therefore it’s critical that our customers remain aware of changes in cybersecurity and continue to work to prevent any potential vulnerability of their products and systems in their environment.

At Eaton we are focusing on analyzing emerging threats and ensuring that we are developing secure products and helping our customers deploy and maintain our solutions in a secure environment. We continue to evaluate cybersecurity updates that we become aware of and provide the necessary communication on our website as soon as possible.

Eaton strongly recommends our customers to apply the deployment practices that are outlined in the appendix to this document -

“Secure hardening guidelines” on page 74.

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

User Manual MN032006EN

Effective May 2018

Introduction

Overview

The ELPRO 415U Ethernet Networking I/O and Gateway is a multiple

I/O node that extends communications to sensors and actuators in local, remote, or difficult to reach locations. Designed to work with wired and wireless devices, the ELPRO 415U is capable of providing

IP-based I/O across sprawling industrial environments typical of industrial applications.

The 415U can serve as an end node or network gateway and is scalable to thousands of nodes. Gather-scatter and block mapping technology offers the efficient use of network resources, allowing point-to-point transfer of process signal within complex monitoring and control systems. Integrated Modbus

server capability allows further I/O expansion through the use of ELPRO 115S expansion modules.

The module can monitor the following types of signals:

•

Digital (on/off) signals, such as a contact closure or switch

•

Analog (continuously variable) signals, such as tank level, motor speed, or temperature

Pulsed signal, frequency signals, such as metering, accumulated total, or rainfall

Internal signals, such as supply voltage, supply failure, or battery status

The modules monitor the input signals and transmit the values by radio or Ethernet cabling to another module (or modules) that have been configured to receive this information. The 415U radio is available in models to support both unlicensed and licensed operation depending on your country.

Input signals that are connected to the module are transmitted and appear as output signals on other modules. A transmission occurs whenever a change of state (COS) occurs on an input signal. A COS of a digital or an internal digital input is a change from “off” to “on,” or a change from “on” to “off.” For an analog input, internal analog input, or pulse input rate, a COS is a configurable value referred to as sensitivity. The default sensitivity is 1000 counts (3%), but you can change this value using the sensitivity block configuration

page in the CConfig utility, as described in “Configuration” on page

17.

In addition to COS messages, update messages are automatically transmitted on a configurable time basis. These updates ensure system integrity. Pulse inputs counts are accumulated and the total count is transmitted regularly according to the configured update time.

The 415U modules transmit the input/output data using radio or

Ethernet. The data frame includes the address of the sending module and the receiving module, so that each transmitted message is acted upon only by the correct receiving unit. Each message includes error checking to ensure that no corruption of the data frame has occurred due to noise or interference. The module with the correct receiving address will acknowledge the message with a return transmission (acknowledgment). If the original module does not receive a correct acknowledgment, it will retry multiple times before setting the communications status of that message to “fail.”

For critical messages, this status can be reflected on an output on the module for alert purposes. The module will continue to try to establish communications and retry each time an update or

COS occurs.

The 415U comes from the factory with ELPRO WIB, Modbus

TCP/RTU and DNP3 protocols as standard. WIB protocol provides powerful enhanced features, including IP addressing and it allows thousands of modules to exist in a system. Modbus TCP and DNP3 protocols provide a standards-based interface to a multitude of commercially available controls systems, including PLCs, DCS, and SCADA.

A system can be a complex network or a simple pair of modules.

An easy-to-use configuration procedure allows you to specify any output destination for each input. Each 415U device can have up to 19 expansion I/O modules (ELPRO 115S) connected by RS-485 twisted pair cable. Any input signal at any module may be configured to appear at any output on any module in the entire system.

The units can be configured using the CConfig utility via Ethernet, remotely over the radio, or USB. Advanced users may configure the units by accessing the internal Web pages using a Web browser.

The CConfig utility is described in “Configuration” on page 17.

For Web-based configuration, see “Configuring using the web configuration utility” on page 44.

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Module structure

The 415U module is made up of different interface areas with a central input and output storage area (I/O store). The I/O store is an area of memory made available for the status of the physical on-board I/O and internal I/O registers. It also provides services for other processes within the module.

The I/O store is split into eight different block types:

•

Two blocks made available for bit data (discrete)

•

Two blocks made available for word data (analog)

Two blocks made available for 32-bit words data (counters)

•

Two blocks made available for floating point data (analogs)

Each of these block types in turn support input and output locations that can interface with the physical I/O on the local machine and also be used for data storage when used as a gateway to external devices. These block type locations are illustrated in

Figure 1

and are described in “Register memory map” on page

68.

There are other registers within the database that can be used for system management.

The on-board I/O includes eight discrete I/O, two single-ended analog inputs, two differential analog inputs, and two current sourcing analog outputs. Each discrete I/O can function as either a discrete input (voltage-free contact input) or discrete output

(transistor output). Each I/O point is linked to separate I/O registers within the I/O data store.

The following internal I/O can be accessed from the I/O store. The inputs can be used to interpret the status of a single module or an entire system:

•

Battery voltage

—The battery terminal voltage, displayed as an analog value.

Loop supply

—The +24 Vdc analog loop supply (ALS) used to power analog current loops, displayed as an analog value.

•

Expansion module volts

—The supply voltage of the connected expansion modules, displayed as an analog value.

RSSI—

The radio signal level for the selectable address, reported as a dB level.

Comms Fail

—A selectable register can indicate a

Communications Fail error for a particular message transmission.

The expansion port, allows 115S expansion I/O modules to be added to the module. Expansion I/O is dynamically added to the internal I/O of the 415U module by adding an offset to the address.

Figure 1. Module structure

The radio and Ethernet interfaces (see

Figure 1

) allow the 415U to communicate with other modules within the system using a proprietary protocol called WIB. I/O Messages from other 415U modules are received on the communication ports and then passed to the I/O store which will in turn update the register locations accordingly. The WIB protocol is designed to provide reliable communications suitable for an Ethernet channel or for an open license-free radio channel. It is an extremely efficient protocol for radio communications because the messages are sent using exception reporting (only transmitting when there is a change of an input signal) rather than transmitting all of the time. Update messages can also be configured at a predetermined time for integrity checks.

Each message can be comprised of multiple I/O values, referred to as a “block of I/O.” The messages use error checking and return acknowledgment for greater reliability. Up to four attempts are made when transmitting the message over each hop of the radio path, and if no acknowledgment is received a Comms indication can be flagged.

Getting started

Most applications for the 415U module require little configuration.

The 415U has many sophisticated features, but if you do not require these features you can use this section to configure the units quickly.

To get started quickly:

1. Read “Installation” on page 3, which describes the power

supply, antenna/coax connections, and I/O connections.

2. Power on the 415U module and set up a USB connection to

your PC. For detailed steps, see “Connecting using the

Configuration Utility” on page 17.

3. Install and run the CConfig utility. For CConfig installation

instructions, see “Downloading and installing CConfig” on page

Installation

General

The 415U Series modules are housed in a aluminum enclosure with

DIN rail mounting, providing options for up to 14 I/O points, and separate power and communications connectors. The enclosure measures 6.7” x 5.9” x 1.6” (170 mm x 150 mm x 40 mm), including the connectors. The antenna protrudes from the top.

Thermal

The 415U series modules contain a high-power radio that can generate a significant amount of heat.

For effective heat dissipation, the device must be mounted in the vertical orientation, with the antenna connection at the top, and with clearance of at least 25 mm on the right side to allow thermal convection.

When multiple circuits are active at the same time (Expansion I/O,

On-Board I/O, Battery Charging, Radio Transmit), and when powered from the “SUP” inputs, the 415U can overheat if it is also operating at the high end of the allowed temperature range.

If your radio transmitter will be operating in a high-duty cycle mode

(for example a repeater or base-station) you must check the de-rating charts below to ensure the radio will be able to operate continuously at your expected ambient temperature.

You can calculate the expected duty cycle of your device by calculating the expected number of messages and the expected message duration, or you can check the duty cycle once the system is p and running (Network Diagnostics >> Custom Survey >> All Tx

Frames).

If the device will be outside it’s thermal operating limit at the designed duty cycle, you can either reduce the transmit power, or you can power the device from a 13.8V supply through the BAT+ and GND terminals.

Power Supply

The 415U-2-C and 415U-E-C will operate from a 15–30 Vdc supply

(nominal 24 Vdc) connected to the SUP+ and SUP– terminals. It will charge a 13.8V sealed lead acid (SLA) battery connected to the BAT+ and GND terminals, and operate from this battery if the main supply fails..

connected to the 415U, then this connection will also be powered from the back-up supply, so that the expansion I/O modules receive the backup power as well as the main module.

B A

Powering from the SUP+ and SUP– terminals

The power supply on the SUP+ and SUP– terminals must be able to supply enough current to operate the device, to power all of the I/O circuits connected to the 415U, and to power the device’s radio transmitter when it is sending data. A 24 Vdc 2.5 A power supply such as PS-DINAC-24DC-OK is suitable for all configurations, including configurations requiring battery charging and expansion I/O.

If you need to use a supply with a lower power rating; or if you need to power additional equipment in your installation; use these guidelines to determine your required power supply current. Add the relevant elements from

Table 2

to determine your power supply current requirement. Remember you also need to add current for any other equipment being powered from the same power supply, including relays, loop isolators, indicators, etc.

Connecting a back-up battery to the BAT+ and GND terminals

You can connect a 13.8 V SLA battery to the BAT+ and GND terminals to provide a backup power source if the main supply fails.

While the main supply is present, the battery will charge at up to 0.5

A rate until the battery voltage reaches 14.3 V. The battery charger will then maintain a float charge on the battery at this voltage. To fully charge the SLA battery, the main supply must be at least 17

Vdc.

When you connect a backup battery, you need to provide sufficient power to support the additional charge current required when the battery is discharged (when it is recovering from an extended power interruption).

1024

High and low voltage alarm indication may be configured for each of

these supply voltages. See “Analog inputs” on

page 11

for details on how to configure these alarms.

Grounding

To provide maximum surge and lightning protection each module should be effectively earthed/grounded via a GND terminal on the module. This is to ensure that the surge protection circuits inside the module are effective. The module should be connected to the same common ground point as the enclosure ground and the antenna mast ground.

The 415U and 415U-E have a dedicated earth/ground connection screw on the bottom end plate next to the supply terminals. All earth/ground wiring should be minimum 0.8 in

(2 mm

), 14 AWG.

If using the 415U with serial expansion I/O modules, all expansion modules must have a separate earth/ground connection from the front terminal back to the common earth or ground point.

See

Figure 8

The 415U condor radio uses narrowband radio transmission to transfer data over licensed radio channels. There are models to support frequencies in the range 340 MHz to 480 MHz, and to support narrow (12.5 kHz) and wide (25 kHz) channels.

The 415U-2-C and 415U-E-C module support power levels from

10mW to 10W, and channel bandwidths of 6.25, 12.5 and 25 kHz.

The 415U-2-C and 415U-E-C transmit data using Quadrature

Amplitude Modulation (QAM), with two, four, or six bits per symbol, supporting data rates up to 96kb/s on a 25kHz channel. The 415U-2C and 415U-E-C also support FSK modulation for operation with

Legacy 415U-2-H and 415U-2-L models. In Legacy mode, data is transmitted using direct frequency shift keying with either one or two bits per symbol (2FSK, 4FSK). This supports data rates of 9600 baud (2FSK) and 19,200 baud (4FSK) on a wide (25 kHz) channel, and 4800 baud (2FSK) and 9600 baud (4FSK) on a narrow (12.5 kHz) channel.

N otee:

The previous 415U-2 model was available in high powered (415U-2-H

5W radio) and low powered (415U-2-L 500mW radio) configurations.

The radio protocol is based on the 802.11 protocol commonly used in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi applications. If you are familiar with

802.11, many of the radio networking concepts used in the 415 will also be familiar to you.

The data rates achievable with the 415U are significantly lower than those for WiFi applications, so care must be taken to make the best use of the available channel bandwidth.

The 415U module is shipped from the factory without any radio configuration. The radio will not send any transmission until initial device provisioning has been completed. At power-up, the device will set its OK LED to RED to indicate that this initial provisioning has not been completed.

To configure the device’s radio for the first time, you must configure the radio Locale and radio Quick Start to set the radio to meet

regulations at its target location. Refer to “Radio” on page 6 for

instructions on configuring the radio using the Configuration utility,

and to “Configuring the locale” on

page 45

and “Quick start— basic device configuration” on

page 46

for instructions on how to

configure the radio using the Web interface.

Antennas

Antennas can be either connected directly to the module’s

RF connector or connected via 50-ohm coaxial cable (such as

RG58 Cellfoil or RG213) terminated with a male SMA coaxial connector. The higher the antenna is mounted, the greater the transmission range, but as the length of coaxial cable increases so do cable losses.

The net gain of an antenna and cable configuration is the gain of the antenna (in dBi) less the loss in the coaxial cable (in dB). Maximum net gain for the 415U will depend on the licensing regulation for the country of operation and the operating frequency.

Typical antennas gains and losses are:

The net gain of the antenna and cable configuration is determined by adding the antenna gain and the cable loss. For example, an 8 dBi antenna with 10 meters of Cellfoil (–2.5 dB) has a net gain of 5.5 dB

(8 dB – 2.5 dB).

Dipole and Collinear antennas

Dipole and collinear antennas transmit the same amount of radio power in all directions, and are easy to install and use because they do not need to be aligned to the destination. The dipole antenna does not require any additional coaxial cable. However, a cable must be added if using any of the other collinear or directional antennas.

In order to obtain the maximum range, collinear and dipole antennas should be mounted vertically, preferably at least one wavelength away (see

Figure 9

for distances) from a wall or mast and at least

3 ft (1 m) from the radio module.

Directional radomes should be installed with the central beam horizontal, and must be pointed exactly in the direction of transmission to benefit from the gain of the antenna.

Parabolic antennas should be mounted according to the manufacturer’s instructions, with the parabolic grid at the back and the radiating element pointing in the direction of the transmission.

Ensure that the antenna mounting bracket is well connected to ground.

Figure 9. Antennas installation—Collinear/Dipole

Installation tips

Connections between the antenna and the coaxial cable should be carefully taped to prevent ingress of moisture. Moisture ingress in the coaxial cable is a common cause for problems with radio systems because it greatly increases the radio losses. We recommend that the connection be taped—first with a layer of PVC tape, next with vulcanizing tape (such as 3M™ 23 tape), and finally with another layer of PVC UV-stabilized insulating tape. The first layer of tape allows the joint to be easily inspected when troubleshooting

because the vulcanizing seal can be easily removed (see

Figure 10

Where antennas are mounted on elevated masts, the masts should be effectively grounded to avoid lightning surges. For high lightning risk areas, approved ELPRO surge suppression devices, such as the CSD-SMA-2500 or CSD-N-6000, should be fitted between the module and the antenna. If using non-ELPRO surge suppression devices, the devices must have a “turn on” voltage of less than 90 V.

If the antenna is not already shielded from lightning strike by an adjacent grounded structure, a lightning rod may be installed above the antenna to provide shielding.

Directional antennas

A directional antenna provides high gain in the forward direction, but lower gain in other directions. This type of antenna may be used to compensate for coaxial cable loss for installations with marginal radio path. Directional antennas can be any of the following:

•

Yagi antenna with a main beam and orthogonal elements

•

Directional radome, which is cylindrical in shape

Parabolic antenna

Yagi antennas should be installed with the main beam horizontal, pointing in the forward direction. If the Yagi antenna is transmitting to a vertically mounted omni-directional antenna, the Yagi elements should be vertical. If the Yagi is transmitting to another Yagi, the elements at each end of the wireless link need to be in the same plane (horizontal or vertical).

The 415U modules provide an RS-485 serial port that supports operations at data rates up to 230,400 baud. The default baud rate is

9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit, which matches the

115S serial expansion module default settings. This port supports the

Modbus protocol.

The RS-485 port terminal is hosted on the four-way expansion connector on the bottom edge of the module. An on-board RS-485 termination resistor provides line termination for long runs. As a general rule, termination resistors should be enabled at each end of the RS-485 cable. When using 115S expansion I/O modules, remember to enable the RS-485 termination resistor switch that is located on the end module.

Front panel connections

415U-2 Front Panel Connections

The front panel on the 415U-2 module provides connections for the following:

•

Eight digital input/output (D1–D8)

Two 12-bit, 0.1% accuracy differential analog inputs (AI1, AI2)

Two single-ended 12-bit, 0.1% accuracy analog inputs (AI3, AI4)

•

Two 13-bit, 0.1% accuracy current sourcing outputs (AO1, AO2)

Connection terminals for common and +24 V analog loop supply

(ALS); maximum ALS current limit is 100 mA

Figure 14. Digital/pulsed input wiring

Digital inputs 1–4 can be used as pulsed inputs. The maximum pulse frequency is 50 kHz for input 1 and 2, and 1 kHz for input 3 and 4.

Digital/pulsed inputs are suitable for TTL signal level, NPN-transistor switch devices, or voltage-free contacts (a relay or switch with debounce capacitor).

Frequencies greater than 1 kHz you need to use a TTL logic drive or an external pull-up resistor (1 KΩ to V+). Pulsed inputs are converted to two different values internally. The first value is the pulse count, which is an indication of how many times the input has changed state over a configured time period. The second value is a pulse rate, which is an analog input derived from the pulse frequency.

For example, 0 Hz = 4 mA and 1 kHz = 20 mA.

All pulsed input counts are stored in non-volatile memory, so that the values are saved in the event of a power failure or a module reset.

415U-E Front Panel Connections

The 415U-E module provides a subset of the I/O functionality of the

415U-2. Terminals D1 and D2 are provided. Use the GND terminal on the bottom panel for common connection.

Digital outputs (pulsed outputs)

Digital outputs are open-collector transistors, and are able to switch loads up to 30 Vdc, 200 mA. The eight digital outputs share the same terminals as the digital input. These terminals are marked D1–8.

Digital or pulsed inputs

Each digital I/O channel on the 415U modules can act as either an input or an output. The input/output direction is automatically determined by the connections and configuration of the I/O. If you have an I/O channel wired as an input but operate the channel as an output, no electrical damage will occur but the I/O system will not operate correctly. If you are operating the channel as an output and you read the corresponding input value, it will indicate the status of the output.

Marked D1–8, the digital inputs share the same terminals as the digital outputs on the 415U-2 module. A digital input is activated by connecting the input terminal to GND or common, either by voltagefree contact, TTL level, or transistor switch. Each digital input has an orange indication LED that will turn on when the input has been connected to a GND.

Figure 15. Digital pulsed output wiring

When active, the digital outputs provide a transistor switch to

EARTH (Common). To connect a digital output, see

Figure 15

A bypass diode (IN4004) is required to protect against switching surges for inductive loads such as relay coils. The digital channels

D1–4 on the 415U-2 module (D1-2 on 415U-E) can be used as pulse outputs with a maximum output frequency of 10 kHz.

Digital output fail-safe status

In addition to indicating the digital output status (on or off), the LEDs can also indicate a communications failure by flashing the output

LED. This feature can be used by configuring a fail-safe time and status via the I/O Digital Output screen in the CConfig utility.

The LEDs next to AI1+, AI2+ indicate the current on these inputs.

The LEDs next to AI1– and AI2– indicate the voltage on the analog inputs.

Differential current inputs

Only analog input 1 and 2 can be wired as differential Inputs.

Differential mode current inputs should be used when measuring a current loop, which cannot be connected to ground. This allows the input to be connected anywhere in the current loop. Common mode voltage can be up to 27 Vdc.

Figure 18

indicates how to connect loop-powered or externally

powered devices to the 415U-2 differential analog inputs. It should also be noted that the differential inputs can also be used to connect single-ended current sinking or current sourcing devices.

Figure 19

shows how to connect to these types of devices.

Figure 16. Digital output fail-safe times

The fail-safe time is the time the output counts down before activating a fail-safe state. Normally this would be configured for a little more than twice the update time of the mapping that is sending data to it. This is because the fail-safe timer is restarted whenever it receives an update. If you send two successive updates and fail to receive both of these messages, the timer counts down to zero and activates the fail-safe state.

If the fail-safe state is enabled (on), the LED flashes briefly off and the digital output turns on. If the fail-safe state is disabled (off), the

LED flashes briefly on and the digital output turns off.

Figure 17. Fail-safe state

Analog inputs

The 415U-2 module provides two floating differential analog inputs and two grounded single-ended analog inputs. Analog inputs 1 and

2 will automatically measure current (0–20 mA) or voltage (0–25 V), depending on what is connected to the input. Analog inputs 3 and 4 must be configured to measure current (0–20 mA) or voltage (0–5 V)

via the DIP switches on the configuration panel (see “Side access configuration panel” on

page 8

An internal 24 V analog loop supply (ALS) provides power for any current loops with a maximum current limit of 100 mA. The LEDs have an analog diagnostic function and will indicate the status of the input. The LED comes ON when any analog signal is detected, and will go OFF when the analog signal drops to zero.

Note

: By default, there is a one-second delay on the input because of the filter. Filter times can be changed using the Analog Input screen

Note

: Default scaling gives 0–20 V for 0–20 mA output on analog

1 and 2. Default scaling for analog 3 and 4 gives 0–5 V for 0–20 mA output. For voltage input on analog 3 and 4, set both DIP switches to the OFF position.

Figure 19. Al1 and Al2 single-ended current inputs

Single-ended current input mode is useful if the sensor loop is grounded to the 415U-2 module. Devices can be powered from the

24 V analog loop supply (ALS) generated internally from the module.

The DIP switches (located in the side access panel) are used to determine if the inputs will be current or voltage. DIP switches 1 and 2 are used for analog 3, and DIP switches 3 and 4 are used for analog 4. For current, set both DIP switches to the “on” position.

For voltage, set both to “off.”

Analog outputs

The 415U-2 module provides two 0–24 mA DC analog outputs for connecting to analog inputs on equipment (such as PLCs, DCS, and loggers) or connecting to instrument indicators for displaying remote analog measurements. The 415U-2 analog outputs are a sourcing output and should be connected from the analog output terminal through the device or indicator to ground (GND). See

System design

This section covers the topics you should consider when designing your system. Starting with a sound system design reduces rework and performance problems during and after commissioning.

Design for failures

All well-designed systems consider system failure. I/O systems operating on a wire link will fail eventually. Failures can be shortterm, such as interference on the radio channel or power supply failure, or long-term, such as equipment failure.

The modules provide the following features for system failure:

•

Outputs can reset if they do not receive a message within a configured time. If an output should receive an update or change message every 10 minutes and it has not received a message within this time, some form of failure is likely. If the output is controlling machinery, it is good design to switch off the equipment until communications are re-established.

•

The modules provide a fail-safe feature for outputs. This is a configurable time value for each output. If a message has not been received for this output within the configured time, the output will assume a configured value. We suggest that this reset time be a little more than twice the update time of the input. It is possible to miss one update message because of short-term interference. However, if two successive update messages are missed, long term failure is likely and the output should be reset.

For example, if the input update time is three minutes, set the output reset time to seven minutes.

A module can provide an output that activates on communication failure to another module. This can be used to provide an external alarm indicating that there is a system fault.

ProMesh

ProMesh is the best networking mode to use when it’s not clear which sites will be repeaters. A ProMesh network consists of a Base and multiple Mesh Nodes. In a ProMesh network, any Mesh Node site can act as a repeater to provide a path for other stations to reach the Base. The ProMesh network automatically configures itself to a tree structure with the Base station at the root. When a Mesh

Node cannot find a direct connection to the base, It chooses another

Mesh Node to act as a repeater based on the best available path to the base.

ProMesh networking mode is typically chosen where your radio environment will be changing, either because the Mesh Nodes are expected to move, or because the physical environment is expected to change so much that the same radio paths will not remain available throughout the lifetime of the network.

Note

: You normally configure ProMesh network for operation on a single radio frequency. Fixed Links or Manual mode networks are more commonly used where paired frequencies are required. This is because when frequencies are paired, stations can only connect to repeaters with the opposite frequency pair (transmit matches receive in both directions)

Redundant Backbone

For systems redundancy is required, you can configure two 415U modules to operate as a redundant pair.

For maximum reliability you can use the dual-redundant 415U-BSR to provide a rack mounted redundant solution.

Testing and commissioning

We recommend that the system is fully bench tested before installation. It is much easier to find configuration problems on the bench when the modules are next to each other as opposed to being miles apart. When the system is configured and you are confident that it works, back up the configurations of all modules.

Networking modes

The 415U series modules support three different radio networking modes. You select different networking modes depending on your application. This simplifies your networking configuration.

Fixed Links - Use this for large systems with a fixed repeater infrastructure and remote sites connecting to the repeater backbone

ProMesh -

This mode automatically assigns stations to act as repeaters as needed. Use this for smaller flexible networks where the topology can change due to moving or temporary repeater locations.

Manual -

This mode allows the most flexibility in confiiguring the network topology, but also more opportunity to mis-configure the network. This option is only used in rare occasions where the other two modes can’t meet the network requirements.

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Fixed links

•

Fixed Links is the networking mode that is used in the majority of 415U applications. This mode allows you to configure a tree structured network with a base station, repeaters, and remotes.

You use a fixed links network configuration where you will install a fixed backbone of repeater stations, with remotes connecting to one of the repeaters. You can configure the remotes to connect to a single repeater (Roaming Disabled) or to select the best repeater to use (Roaming Enabled).

Remote stations in the Fixed Links network can be configured to scan multiple radio frequencies. This allows you to configure remotes to connect to whichever backbone network it is closest to, even when the backbone networks are operating on different frequencies.

Fixed Links networks are suitable for networks where paired frequencies are required, as it is easy to flip the transmit and receive frequencies at each repeater.

Manual mode network

Manual mode networking provides the most flexibility in configuring how your network connects, but also comes with the greatest risk of configuring a network that performs poorly or not at all.

Manual mode networking uses the concept of Network Endpoints which are either Access Point or Client (802.11 networking). Each client will connect to an access point with matching SSID. Each access point can accept connections from multiple clients. Each station has a primary networking endpoint. This is the connection you define on the main Networking page. You can define additional endpoints on the Repeaters page to configure additional connections to other stations in the network.

Note

: Behind the scenes, the Fixed Links and ProMesh network modes use the same concept of Access Point and Client to implement their networking. The main networking endpoint is always a client, which provides the upstream connection toward the base, and for repeaters and Mesh

Nodes, an access point provides a second network endpoint for other devices to connect to.

Internally, all of the networking endpoints are bridged together. This allows messages to be transferred through the network, but you need to be careful of causing loops in the network. With Manual networking mode, there is nothing to stop you creating a loop, which can cause excessive network traffic as messages are sent around the loop forever.

If you create networking loops as a way to provide redundant links, you also need to enable Spanning Tree Protocol, which is designed to eliminate this type of bridged network loop by imposing a logical tree structure on the network.

IP Address assignment

You should carefully plan how you are going to assign IP addresses to the devices in your system. By assigning IP addresses in a logical manner, your network setup will be easier to understand, and the amount of configuration required will be minimized.

Bridged networks

Most networks will use the Bridged networking mode. This is the default for the 415U devices. Here the local network of devices connected to the base, the remote radios, and other devices connected to the remote radios are all on the same IP subnet.

For this type of network, you should assign a separate block of IP addresses for remote 415U devices, other remote devices connected to the 415U radio network, and for any equipment on the local network at the master station. Assigning IP addresses in this way allows you to use the Easy Filter configuration to simplify network filtering. A typical installation could use the following assignment.

Sub-Network Address: 192.168.9.0 (Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0)

(The 192.168.0.xx through 192.168.255.xx addresses are assigned to private IP networks. This allows up to 254 devices on the subnetwork.)

Base Network: 192.168.9.1 – 192.168.9.50

(Use addresses in this range for all devices connected to the

Base station network segment, including SCADA computer, PLCs,

Managed Switches, etc.)

415U radio network: 192.168.9.51 – 192.168.9.150

(Use these addresses for the remote 415U devices)

Other Host devices: 192.168.9.151 – 192.168.9.253

(Use these addresses for the devices connected to the Ethernet ports on the remote 415U devices)

Network traffic control in bridged networks

Bridged networks are convenient to set up because all of the devices are on a single subnet, and the bridging algorithms take care of delivering the data packets to the correct destination. One negative of bridged networking is that any broadcast traffic must be broadcast over the entire network. This isn’t such a big issue with high speed

Ethernet networks, but with lower speed radio networks, the level of broadcast traffic on the radio network can stop important traffic from reaching its destination. Use the Easy Filter option at your

Base Station to ensure that only traffic to the desired destination

IP addresses is forwarded over the radio network. Easy Filter filters out any non-IP traffic, and any IP traffic to addresses outside the configured range.

Using the example above, you should configure Easy Filter at your

Base Station to cover the “415U radio network” and the “Other Host devices”, but not the “Base Network”.

Routed networks

Sometimes it is necessary to configure the radio as an IP router to support desired addressing or address segmentation.

For this type of network, you need to assign different separate subnetwork addresses to each Sub-network. Normally you set the

415U Base station as an IP Router, and configure the Base Network on one subnetwork, and all remote devices on another subnetwork. A typical installation could use the following assignment.

Base Subnetwork:

Sub-Network Address: 192.168.9.0 (Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0)

Base Network: 192.168.9.1 – 192.168.9.100

Base Station 415U Ethernet IP address: 192.168.9.101

Remote Subnetwork:

Sub-Network Address: 192.168.10.0 (Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0)

415U radio network: 192.168.10.2 – 192.168.10.100

(Use these addresses for the remote 415U devices)

Other Host devices: 192.168.9.101 – 192.168.9.253

(Use these addresses for the devices connected to the Ethernet ports on the remote 415U devices)

Base Station 415U Radio IP address: 192.168.10.1

Note that in this configuration the remote 415 devices are still configured for Bridging. If you configure the remote 415 devices for routing, then you need to assign a separate subnetwork and separate Ethernet IP addresses for the local Ethernet network at each remote

415 device.

The PC Based Configuration Utility CConfig does not support Routed network configuration. You can only configure Routed mode using the Web based configuration interface. See “Configuring using the embedded Web Configuration Utility” on

page 49

Routing rules

When you configure your Base station as an IP Router (Basic

Provisioning >> Network >> Network Mode >> Router) you also configure a different IP subnet on the radio and on the Ethernet port. To allow messages to pass through the router, you need to set up routing rules to tell the remote devices (Remote 415U, Base

Computer, and other remote Connected device) to use the Base station 415U as the router to reach the remote device.

Using the example above, at your Scada PC, you need to add a routing rule to use the Base Station Ethernet IP address to reach the

192.168.10.0 network:

> route ADD 192.168.10.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 192.168.9.101

And at your remote 415 units, you need to add a routing rule to use the Base Station Radio IP address to reach the 192.168.9.0 network

(Advanced Networking >> IP Routing ):

Figure 26. Easy filter

N otee:

You will need to add similar routing rules to any other devices you have connected to the Ethernet ports on the remote 415 devices which need to communicate back to the Base network.

Radio Paths and Data Rate

A critical element in system design is to ensure that the radio signals are able to reach their destination reliably. This section provides guidance on configuring your devices to deliver data reliably.

Modulation Type and Data Rate

The 415U supports two modulation types (Legacy FSK and High

Speed QAM), and a total of six data encodings (two for FSK, and four for QAM modulation). The availalble data rates depend on the modulation type, the encoding, and the radio bandwidth. Faster data rates allow more data to be transferred in your system, but require a clearer signal to get through.

The following table shows the available data encodings and raw data rate for the available radio band-width settings.

The 415U modules support automatic data rate selection. This is normally the best option, as the modules will set the data rate to the maximum according to the signal strength, and will then adjust the data rate if the signal strength reduces (due to changing path conditions, or degrading antenna systems), or if too many messages are corrupted during transmission (due to interference)

The default setting for the 415U modules is auto rate. This is appropriate for the majority of situations, however the automatic rate selection can struggle to find a consistent rate if there is local interference, if the system is so busy that many messages fail to be delivered, or if the two ends of the link are configured with different power levels. In these cases, you could see improved performance by setting the module transmit data rate (Radio Configuration Page)

Where you have a very remote site, you might need to use a high gain directional antenna (Yagi) to reach your repeater or base station.

To stay inside the radio license requirements, you may need to reduce the transmit power to compensate for the antenna gain at that remote site. If the transmit power at each end of a link differs by more than 3dB, you should disable Auto Rate, and select the best fixed rate for that site.

When designing your radio network, you calculate the system figure to determine what data rate you are likely to achieve between two sites. You calculate the system figure by adding the transmitter power and antenna gain, and subtracting co-axial cable losses and path loss between the two sites.

Basic Rate

In addition to the Data Rate, each radio in your system.is configured with a basic rate. This is the lowest rate that any radio in the system can communicate at. The default value for the basic rate is 4QAM

(for High speed mode) or 2FSK (for Legacy Mode). All radios must be configured with the same basic rate.setting.

Where all of the radio paths in the system have good signal strength, you can set the basic rate to a higer value to achieve increased system througput (Radio Configuration Page). If you have some radio paths which may require the strongest encoding (FEC) to operate, you should set the basic rate to the lowest rate (4QAM

+ FEC).

The basic rate is used for transmissions during link establishment, as well as for beacon messages and for broadcast transmissions.

The basic rate also affects the radio channel delays (hold-off times), as the radio access protocol needs to allow for the possibility of low speed transmissions when the basic rate is lower. This means that a system with a lower basic rate will experience lower througput, even if the actual data rates between the sites are the same.

Note

: Radios are able to communicate with each other when the basic rate is set to different FSK or QAM encoding (without FEC), but this is not recommended, as the channel access timing is different, and this is likely to result in more message corruptions due to overlapping transmissions .

Forward Error Correction

The High Speed (QAM) modulation type provides an additional encoding mode to provide the best possible long range performance. 4QAM+FEC mode applies forward error correction to the 4QAM signal. This adds additional data bits to the transmitted messaage that can be used at the receiving end to recover data that was corrupted during data transmission. This mode provides a low speed option to allow operation over the longest distances.

Note

: The default basic rate setting is 4QAM

without

FEC. If you think your system will need this mode, then you need to select the 4QAM+FEC data rate as your Basic Rate setting for all radios in your system.

Transmit Power Setting.

You should set your transmit power according to your radio license.

If you have configured the radio for an unlicensed / class licensed locale then your power level setting will be limited to the maximum allowed for your locale. In either case, you need to account for the gain of your antenna system to ensure you are not exceeding the allowed radiated power level.

Most radio licenses are based on average transmit power, however some specify peak power levels. For Legacy FSK transmission, the average and peak power are the same, but for High Speed QAM transmission, the average and peak powers are different. The power setting that you make sets the target average power, but at some target power levels the radio is limited by it’s peak power capability.

Check the peak and average power available in QAM modes according to the table below. The highlightged cells show where the average power has been limited to less than the requested value by the radio peak power capability

Once you have added the device, you will see the device’s main configuration page. This page will allow you to set up the device to communicate with the rest of the network

The first device you add should be configured as a base station. You should add and configure each of the system base stations into your project first, followed by the repeaters, then remotes.

Note: A system is made up of base stations, repeaters, and remote sites. The base stations are connected to your wired backbone.

Remote sites are your field locations. Repeaters forward signals for remotes that can’t reach the base directly.

Once you have added your site, configure each item as described below.

Identification

System namee:

All devices in a system are configured with a common system name. This is used by roaming remotes, and in

ProMesh mode as a common network ID for all devices to connect.

Device namee:

Each device in the system should be configured with a unique device name. This name is used to identify devices in diagnostic display (Connectivity) and is used in Fixed Link mode as the device ID for other devices to connect to.

Device modele:

Select the device model to match the product label.

Wireless Interface

Networking Mode: Select “Fixed Links” or “ProMesh”. Fixed Links mode should be used in larger systems where established repeaters are installed to provide a communications backbone for remote sites.

ProMesh mode is suited to systems where connections are ad-hoc, and any device may be required to act as a repeater station.

•

Fixed links

Mode implements a fixed repeater configuration where field devices (Remote) are configured to connect directly or via intermediate sites (Repeater) to a central station (Base).

ProMesh mode

implements automatic repeater configuration, where devices (Mesh Node) automatically choose and maintain the best path back to a central station (Base). All devices in the network use a common System Name.

Device modee:

This option is available when the Networking mode is set to “Fixed Links”. A Fixed Link network consists of a central station (Base) accessing a fixed arrangement of repeater stations

(Repeater) and remote stations (Remote). All devices ultimately connect to the central station (Base). Repeaters and remotes can either connect directly to the base, or connect using additional repeater stations to extend the radio range.

Enable roaminge:

This option is available when the Device Mode is

“Remote”. Check this box if you want the remote to be able to roam between repeaters and base stations with the same system ID.

Upstream device namee:

When the Device Mode is “Repeater” or “Remote”, you need to select the Upstream device. When the connection is direct to the base, this is the Device Name of the base station. When the connection is via repeaters, this is the name of the repeater station that is used to reach the base station. If this is a remote site with roaming enabled, then the Upstream device is only used to configure the radio settings, and the remote will be able to roam between base and repeaters with matching radio settings.

ProMesh modee:

This option is available when the Networking Mode is set to ProMesh. A ProMesh network consists of a single central station (Base), and one or more remote sites (Mesh Nodes) which can each operate as a repeater for other stations.

The Mesh Nodes select the best path to the Base depending on the number of hops to the base, and based on signal strength of the hops in the path. Once connected, the Mesh Nodes monitor the path quality and will swap to use a better path if one comes available.

All devices in a ProMesh network share the same configured

“System Name”.

Radio encryptione:

Select the radio encryption type. “AES 256 bit” provides 256 bit AES encryption suitable for all applications.

“WPA2-PSK” provides 128 bit AES with key rolling. This is the same encryption as used in 802.11 protocol. This method has additional overheads that slow down device connection. . “AES 256 bit” is the best option unless there is a specific reason to use the standards based encryption.

Note

: Selecting Encryption “None” makes your network vulnerable to attack. Without encryption there is no protection from attackers with access to the same type of hardware.

Encryption passphrasee:

This is the secret key for your network encryption. All devices in the network need the same passphrase to communicate.

N otee:

For best security, this passphrase must be long (at least 20 characters) and should not include text that could be guessed such as names, dates, etc.

N otee:

Always keep this passphrase private, and ensure that the system configuration is updated with a new passphrase if this key becomes compromised.

Radio setup

Modulatione:

Select the Modulation required for 415U-2-C and 415U-

E-C models. This should be set to QAM mode unless you need to connect to Legacy 415U-2-H/L devices in your network. All devices in the system must be set to the same modulation.

Localee:

Select the desired licensing. For most applications, you should select “GL” for licensed operation, or “ISM” for unlicensed operation in the 433MHz ISM band. Some countries support additional unlicensed or class licensed bands. If you know that one of these locales applies to your location, then you can select the appropriate locale. Once you select the locale, other settings will be limited to be within the allowed settings for that band.

For more information on the device Locale refer to the section

“Configuring the Locale” on p.47

WARNING

USE OF UNLICENSED BANDS IS LIMITED TO THE LISTED

PHYSICAL LOCALES ONLY. ENSURE YOU SELECT A LOCALE

THAT IS ALLOWED BY THE RADIO REGULATORY AUTHORITY IN

YOUR TARGET LOCATION.

WARNING

WHEN YOU SELECT “LICENSED” LOCALE, YOU MUST HAVE

A RADIO LICENSE FROM THE RADIO REGULATORY AUTHORITY

IN YOUR LOCATION. THIS LICENSE WILL BE FOR A SINGLE

FREQUENCY OR A RANGE OF FREQUENCIES. ENSURE

THE RADIO IS CONFIGURED FOR A PROPERLY LICENSED

FREQUENCY (REFER FOLLOWING SECTION) BEFORE

TRANSMITTING.

If you intend to use the device in Licensed operating mode, select the “Licensed” Locale. This gives access to the full radio band available to the module.

Bandwidthe:

Select the bandwidth according to your license. If you have a choice, a larger bandwidth will allow higher data rates but will occupy more of the radio spectrum.

Transmit power levele:

Select the desired power level. You can reduce the power level to compensate for higher gain antennas to stay inside any regulatory limits that apply to your radio license or to you location.

Radio base ratee:

This is the lowest speed that the radio communicate at. This should normally be set to the lowest available setting. All radios that will communicate with each other must have the same Base Rate. By setting this to a higher rate, system throughput can be increased.

Transmit data ratee:

This is the data rate for this radio to transmit at.

Different radios in the system can transmit at different rates. Slower rates improve the signal over marginal radio paths.

Tx/Rx Frequencye:

This is the frequency that the radio operates at.

This will be set according to your radio license.

Note

: When you connect a device to a Base or a Repeater by selecting

“Upstream Device”, the Modulation, Locale, Bandwidth, Radio Base Rate, and

Tx/Rx Frequency are copied from the upstream device, so you normally only need to set these values at the system base station.

Cautione:

When selecting the Locale, frequency, bandwidth and power, make sure that you have approval from your regulatory authority to operate the radio with these settings. You will normally need a license to be issued for bands other than the ISM band.

Note

: The default networking mode for the 415U uses bridged networking. This connects the radio and Ethernet ports to the same logical sub-net. The 415U device has a single IP address common to the radio and

Ethernet ports

IP routing

The IP routing rules table determines which IP address an outgoing message will be routed through. When the table contains enabled routing rules, the most explicit and exclusive subnet match is used to determine the route for an outgoing message. If there is no match, the 415U checks for a subnet match against its hard-wired default gateway (configured on the main device configuration page), assuming that the default gateway is configured and accessible. In some cases, such as routed networks with more than two routers, it is not practical to have only one default gateway. If more than one next-hop router is required, the 415U allows for the configuration of up to 100 routing rules. A routing rule specifies a destination network (or host) IP address and the corresponding next-hop router

(gateway) to which messages for the specified destination will be forwarded. The gateway will then deliver the data to the required destination, or forward it on to another router that will.

Note

: IP routing is an advanced user function. If you are not familiar with

IP routing and your network consists of multiple sub-networks connected by routers, request assistance from an IT expert.

Mappings

Mappings are used to send I/O values between modules using the WIB I/O transfer protocol. The I/O is sent to a remote module via the Ethernet connection on the device. To display the current mappings for a module, open the module in the project tree and click Mappings (see

Figure 33

Mappings are sent on the following triggers:

•

Change of state (COS)

—This method monitors the state of the input that is being mapped. When the state changes, it triggers a transmission. This is the primary method of sending input values to a destination. As soon as the input change occurs the value is immediately sent to the destination. Digital mappings are triggered when the input changes from on to off, or from off to on. Analog mappings are triggered when the input changes by a predefined value, referred to as “sensitivity.” The sensitivity value is set by configuring a sensitivity block for the particular input or a

range of inputs. See “Sensitivity blocks” on

page 29

for more

information.

•

Updates

—This method sends a message at a pre-configured time regardless of the input value or state. For details, see

the Update Time field described in “Adding or editing mapping parameters” on

page 22

Mapping force

—This method makes use of the Force Mapping

Transmit Register configuration on the Advanced page. It allows a mapping to be triggered when a separate register is written to a non-zero value. The register is written back to zero once the mapping has triggered.

There are three types of mappings—write, gather scatter, and read. Each type has advantages and disadvantages. The appropriate mapping to use will depend on the data and requirements of the system.

•

Write mapping

—A write mapping allows multiple sequential values to be sent in one message. If you are mapping analog values, the maximum I/O count is 64. However, if you are mapping digitals it can be as many as 1024 because the digitals values are packed into 16-bit words for transmission. The mapping is sent on a change-of-state of any of the values being monitored, and also on an update period.

Gather scatter mapping

—A gather scatter mapping is essentially the same as write mapping, but instead of sequential register it allows different I/O types to be sent in a single message. All I/O types, including digital, analog, long (32-bit registers) and floating point values, can be sent in a single message. A gather scatter mapping has a maximum I/O count of 32 values of any data type

(digital, analog, longs, or floats).

Read mapping

—Read mappings are similar to write mappings in that they allow multiple sequential values to be sent. However, instead of writing the values to another module, the data is requested from the remote module, which responds with the requested data. This type of mapping is suited to a polling system where the receiving station initiates when it wants to communicate, for example, by sending a read request when it requires the information or by sending a request on a timed basis.

Figure 33. Mappings

WIB configuration options (Advanced Tab

)

The following options are available on the “Advanced” tab of the

Mappings screen (see

Figure 3342

) allow you to fine-tune the operation of the WIB protocol. The default values are appropriate for almost all systems and should not need to be changed.

Tx Ack Count

— Total number of attempts to be made to transmit a mapping with its Acknowledge checkbox selected if no acknowledgment message is received. In most cases, the default value of three transmissions is recommended

Tx Ack Timeout

— Time to wait before deeming a mapping message as “unacknowledged” if the Acknowledge checkbox is selected in the mapping. The default value is two seconds

Tx UnAck Count

— Number of times to send an IO mapping if the

Acknowledge checkbox is cleared in the mapping. The default is once only.

acknowledged when the end device receives the message. This is an end-to-end acknowledgment, and is in addition to the normal hop-by-hop frame acknowledgment between links.

Notee:

Enabling this option will increase the amount of radio communications and care should be taken in larger systems.

Update Time—

Configures how often the mapping update messages (check signals) are sent. These messages are in addition to the normal change-of-state updates that occur when an input changes.

The default update time is 10 minutes, but you can increase the update time to a maximum of over two weeks, or decrease it to a minimum of one second. Updates can also be disabled by entering a time of zero or selecting the checkbox. Note that the updates are only a check signal, and care should be taken when configuring the update values with short update times (less than

5 seconds) because this will greatly increase the amount of radio traffic.

Response Time—

(Read mappings only.) The countdown time before the module registers a communications failure for the configured read mapping. When the timeout is complete, the fail register is activated.

Fail Register—

Allows you to configure a register location that will indicate a communication failure for the configured remote destination address.

Notee:

The Acknowledge checkbox must be selected for fail registers to work. Also, the fail register can only be a digital output or internal bit registers (10501, 501, and so on).

Enable Mapping—

Select the checkbox to enable this mapping.

Name—

You can give each mapping a name for reference purposes.

Destination—

Provides two standard choices, as well as an

Ethernet IP address for each module in the project tree

This Unit—

This option refers to the module that you are currently configuring. When this option is selected, the IP address changes to the local host loopback address of 127.0.0.1.

Remote device Name—

When you select the name of a device in the system, the mapping will be sent to theat device. Ensure that the IP addresses of the sending module and receiving module are able to communicate to each other.

IP Address—

This option allows any IP address to be entered in the configuration. It is for advanced users only because the remote name and address location will not show up in the I/O list. Knowledge of the remote module’s I/O location and address is required for it to function correctly. Generally this option is only used when a module that is not in the project is loaded or is being mapped to.

I/O Table—

Allows you to map each I/O to an output.

Click the

Local Name

field to see a drop-down list of all available I/O, or click the

Local Address

field to view a tabbed I/O selection screen that will allow you to select an I/O point (input) that you want to map.

for a dropdown list of destination I/O names or

Remote Address

to open a drop-down list of destination I/O locations.

Notee:

You must select an actual destination unit before you can select a remote name. You can select remote address for IP address.

I/O Count—

Allows you to add more I/O points to the mapping. If you are using a write or a read mapping, CConfig will automatically select consecutive registers that are shaded and cannot be edited. When using a gather scatter mapping, MConfig will add mapping entries which you must then edit by selecting the sending and destination I/O points.

Invert—

Select this checkbox to allow the mapping to be inverted.

For example, if the digital input is “on” and the mapping is inverted, the output will be “off,” or if an analog input is 4 mA and the mapping is inverted the output will be 20 mA. The invert applies to all I/O in the mapping. Floating point and long values are not inverted.

Offset Time—

Configures an offset time for the update mapping.

The offset is used to stagger the update transmissions at startup and at every update period so that the module does not send all mappings at the same time. The default is 0. To stagger transmissions to a predetermined schedule, set a different offset time value for each mapping, and clear the “Reset Update

Timer” flag and the “Change of State Enable” flag for these mappings

Change of Statee:

Enable—

When the Enable checkbox is selected, the values are sent to their configured destination when a change-of-state

(COS) occurs and the value complies with any sensitivity blocks.

If COS is disabled, messages will only be sent on the update period

Delay—

Allows you to set the time period during which the message is delayed from being sent. The purpose is to reduce the amount of radio traffic by holding off the transmission to allow more I/O COS to the mapping

Reset Update Timer—

If this option is selected, the Update

Time period will reset when a COS occurs between configured updates. This means that the next update will not be sent until a further update period has elapsed. You can use this option to reduce the amount of radio traffic produced when multiple mappings are configured

Force Mapping Transmit—

Allows you to configure an I/O location that will force the mapping to be sent when the I/O location is written to. External devices, such as Modbus Master/Clients, can initiate the transmission of a mapping by writing to an internal register that then forces the transmission to occur. For more information and examples, see “Startup or force configuration”.

Note

: Digital inputs 1–8 cannot be used as a force trigger because the digital inputs are continually being scanned by the internal processor and each time a scan occurs it would force the mapping to be sent. If a digital input is required to be used as the trigger, map the digital input to a general purpose bit storage register (501, 10501, and so on), and then use this general purpose register to trigger the force mapping.

Startup or force configuration

When a module is first powered on, it transmits update messages to remote modules based on how the input mappings are configured. The module’s outputs will remain in the default “off” condition until the module receives an update or change-of-state message from the remote modules—unless a fail-safe block has been configured for the output, in which case it will default to the value configured in the fail-safe block. For more information, see

“Fail-safe blocks” on

page 28

To ensure that the module outputs are updated with the latest remote input status when the module is first powered on, you can configure the module to transmit a special startup or force message that will write a value into an internal register at the remote module

(or modules). The remote module can then use this register to force any mappings that it has configured for the destination. To configure

a force register, see the previous section, “Adding or editing mapping parameters” on

page 22

When the force register is activated, any mapping configured with this force register will immediately send an update message to the destination so that its outputs can be set to the latest value. It may be necessary to configure a startup or force message for each remote module that sends values back to the module’s outputs.

Example

In the example shown in

Figure 3738

, site A needs to be configured so that on power-up it writes to a register at Site B. Site B then uses this register to trigger an update of any mappings it has that communicate back to Site A. If the system has multiple remote sites that require startup or force configuration, Site A needs to have configured a startup or force mapping for each remote site. If there were multiple remotes in this example, all mappings from the remote sites that are sent to Site A would use the force register configured for 501.

Period of time (in seconds) needed by the analog input to settle on a step change of an analog value.

By default, all inputs except the pulse rates have a time constant of five seconds. Pulsed input rates are not filtered.

You can scale analog inputs to suit data requirements of other systems. When sending analog inputs to outputs on other 415U devices, select Default. Other scaling options provide support for systems that need data ranges of 8-bit, 12-bit, and 16-bit (signed and unsigned).

Use the Custom setting to configure other scalings for systems that cannot be accommodated with any of the other options.

The graph shows how the scaling affects the relationship between the measured value (Engineering

Value) and the corresponding scaled 16-bit Register

Value.

These set points are the upper and lower control point values that will be used to turn on and off the analog set point digital signals located at register 10009–10020.

Note

: Set point values are entered in the scale of the input.

For example, analog input 1–4 should be in mA, analog inputs

9–12 should be volts, and so on.

To control the set points, use the Invert and Window control options described below. All set points have these controlling options.

Selecting this option inverts the set point control logic.

The function does not change—only the operation is inverted. For example, if the set point is “on” in its normal state, inverting the signal causes the set point to be “off” in the normal state. By default, the checkbox is cleared and the set point logic is not inverted.

Selecting this checkbox sets the set point operation to Window mode. Clearing this checkbox sets the set point operation to default mode.

Window mode

—In this mode, if the analog value is inside the upper and lower set points, the set point will be active (on, “1”), and if the analog value is outside of these set points, the set point will be reset (off, “0”).

Default mode

—In this mode, the set point operates in default mode. If the analog input is greater than the upper set point, the set point status is active (on, or “1”). When the analog input is less than the lower set point, the set point is reset (off, or “0”). When the analog value is between the upper and lower set points, the previous value is maintained.

Note

: The upper set point must always be higher than the lower set point.

Adding expansion I/O modules

You can connect additional 115S serial expansion I/O modules to the

415U module if more I/O is required. The RS-485 serial port on the

415U is configured by default to communicate with 115S expansion modules using the Modbus protocol. The default serial parameters of the RS-485 port on the 415U are 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, which match the default settings of the 115S serial expansion modules. You can change these parameters to increase poll speeds in larger systems, but the serial module’s parameters must match that of the 415U RS-485 port.

If more than three serial expansion I/O modules are added to the

415U module, you will need to adjust the Maximum Connections setting for RS-485 or RS-232. To display these configuration screens, select the module in the project tree and click

485

232

Note

: Reducing the Maximum Connections setting will slightly improve the serial scan time. However, you need to make sure that the slave addresses fall within the Maximum Connections. If the Slave address is above the Maximum Connections, it will not be polled.

When you connect the serial expansion module, before powering on, set the expansion module address using the rotary switches on the bottom of the module. Assign addresses sequentially, starting at address 1. Make a note of the module address. This address will be used as an offset to locate the I/O within the 415U. Also make sure that the termination switch is “on” (down) for the last module in the

RS-485 loop.

Notee:

Failure to terminate the RS-485 correctly will result in modules not operating correctly.

•

Analog input 1 will be at register location 30321

For a detailed address map of the serial expansion I/O modules,

see

page 71

When adding expansion I/O modules to the 415U, there are two inbuilt registers indicating the communication status of the expansion I/O module:

•

Communication fail

—Located at register location 10019 + offset value. This register indicates “1”when the module is in failure.

•

Communication oK

—Located at register location 10020 + offset value. This register indicates “1”when the module is communicating properly.

Adding an expansion I/O to CConfig

In CConfig to add a 115S expansion I/O to the CConfig utility, open the module in the project tree and click

Expansion

, and then click

Add

(see

Figure 46

115S Expansion I/O Memory map

The I/O data on the 115S module is read into memory locations according to their Modbus address. The maximum supported

Modbus address is 19. Each 115S module has an offset that applies to the location of its registers. This offset is equal to the units

Modbus address (selected on the rotary switch on the end of the

115S expansion I/O module), multiplied by 20.

If the modules Modbus address is 15, the offset value will be

15 X 20 = 300.

For example, if connecting a 115S-11 (16 x DIO) with address #15:

•

Digital input 1 will be at register location 10301

Fail-safe blocks

To configure fail-safe blocks for a module, open the module in the project tree and click

Fail-safe Blocks

. The Fail-safe Block

configuration screen (

Figure 47

) allows you to set registers to a pre-configured value on startup and configure the outputs to reset to a predefined value after a timeout period has elapsed. When the actual value is received, the register is automatically updated with this value. If the value is lost because of a communication problem, the register can be configured to set the register to a fail-safe value after the pre-configured time. You can have a maximum of 50 failsafe blocks.

In the example shown in

Figure 47

, register 40501 holds an analog value that has been mapped from another module and is updated every 60 seconds. The fail-safe block is configured so that on startup the module will write a value of 16384 into register 40501, and then start counting down the fail timeout period (in this case,

600 seconds), which is a little over two times the update period from the sending module. If the module has not received an update from the other module after 600 seconds, register 40501 will be set to the fail value (in this case, Invalid). If the “Invalidate” option is selected, the value will be set to a null or invalidated value (~). If this register happens to be mapped to another module and the state is “Invalid,” the mapping will be inhibited until the invalid value is updated with an actual value.

Note

: Don’t use the failsafe for physical outputs. For

Invalid register state

All registers within the module can have different states, depending on the type of register and the type of value it holds. A typical analog range is between 0 and 65535, and a digital can be 0 or

1. Registers that are not associated with a physical I/O can also be in the “invalid” state, which means that the register has not been written to and holds a non-value or null value. If you use I/O diagnostics to read the registers, an invalid register will read “~“ as shown in

Figure 49

. For information on I/O diagnostics, see

“IO diagnostics” on page 59.

Note

: Any mapping with an invalid register will be inhibited from sending.

This is to ensure that the data sent to the destination is valid and not the

default values the module has on startup. See “Fail-safe blocks” on

page

for information on configuring registers with a valid value at startup.

Figure 49. Invalid register state

Sensitivity blocks

All I/O registers have a configurable sensitivity value that determines how much the register needs to change before a change-of-state”

(COS) message is sent. All registers except the following have a default sensitivity value of 1:

•

The 12 analog inputs have a sensitivity of 1000 counts, or approximately 3% (1000 counts from a total range of

32768 = 3.05%).

•

The 24 floating point values have a default sensitivity of 0.5 units.

Inputs 38001–38004 will be 0.5 mA, inputs 38005–38012 will be in volts, and inputs 38013–38016 will be in hertz.

A sensitivity value is needed for analog inputs in order to prevent the module from sending every single-bit change of an analog value, and subsequently saturating the radio channel with unwanted COS messages. If a lower sensitivity is required, you can adjust the sensitivity block. However, take care not reduce the sensitivity to the point where radio messages are so frequent (due to a sensitivity change) that it saturates the radio network. There is a fine line between adjusting system parameters to receive up-to-date data and overloading the radio communications. A total of 50 sensitivity blocks can be configured for different registers or different values.

To change sensitivity blocks for a module, click

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Serial configuration

The 415U module has an RS-232 and an RS-485 port for serial communications. These ports are used to connect ELPRO 115S-11,

115S-12, and 115S-13 serial expansion I/O modules. The ports can also be used to connect external Modbus RTU master or slave devices. The port operating mode and the normal serial parameters, baud rate, data format, flow control, and so on, all need to be selected from the drop-down lists, depending on the type of device connected and how it will operate.

Note

: An error is displayed if the operating mode selection is incompatible with the configuration. For example, you will see an error if Modbus mode is not selected when Modbus mappings are configured.

Each serial port can be configured to operate in one of the following operating modes:

•

Modbus RTU Master

—This mode should be configured when the port is operating as a Modbus master, for example, when

Modbus RTU slave devices are connected directly to the serial port.

•

Modbus RTU Slave

—This operating mode should be used when the port is being used as a Modbus RTU slave, for example, when a Modbus master (such as DCS, or SCADA) is connected to the serial port.

Expansion I/O

—This operating mode should be selected when

ELPRO serial expansion modules are connected to the module.

Modbus RTU master

To configure a module serial port as a Modbus RTU master, click the serial port (

RS-485

RS-232

) in the project tree, and then select

Modbus RTU Master

from the

Operating Mode

drop down menu

(see

Figure 55)

The Modbus RTU master should be configured if the 415U is acting as a Modbus RTU master and polling Modbus slave devices via the selected serial port. It also allows Ethernet Modbus/TCP clients connected to the 415U Ethernet port to communicate with Modbus

RTU slave devices connected to the configured serial port. The 415U makes this possible by internally performing the necessary protocol conversion. The conversion is performed by the 415U that is directly connected to the Modbus serial device (only this module needs to have Modbus TCP to RTU gateway enabled).

The default data rate and data format are standard 9600, N81 with no flow control, which matches the default serial baud rate and data format of the 115S serial expansion module. You can adjust serial parameters for compatibility or faster serial performance. If you change the baud rate or data format, the serial port parameters on the expansion I/O module also need to be changed. To do this use the Modbus Serial I/O Module option from the MConfig

Adding mapping parameters

Before adding or modifying a module’s TCP or RTU mappings, make sure that the Modbus Master TCP Client and RTU Master checkbox is selected at the top of the Modbus configuration screen (see

Figure 60

). Click the Modbus TCP Client or the RTU Master subtab,

depending on the connected device. Then, click

Add

to add a new mapping,

Edit

to edit a selected mapping, or

Delete

to delete a selected mapping. Clicking Add or Edit displays the screen in

Figure 61

, where you can specify mapping parameters.

Both Modbus TCP client and RTU master mappings have similar parameters, the only difference will be the slave communication path. For example, Modbus TCP client mappings will use a network address and port while RTU master mappings will use a serial port.

Figure 61. Modbus TCP client mapping

Local Register (Master) When the Function Code Modbus command is “Read” the Local Register field will be the destination register(output location) on the local device. When the Function Code command is“Write” the Local

The number of consecutive I/O values in the mapping.

I/O Count

Function Code (Command Type) The Function Code Modbus command determines if the command will be “Read” or “Write” and what type of register will be used. When entering a mapping, you need to select “Read” or “Write” from the drop-down list in the Command Type field, and then select one of the four radio buttons representing the register types. Selecting the register type will change the Destination (slave) register address range to a suitable range.

Destination Register (Slave) The register location on the TCP server/RTU slave device. The register selection offered will be appropriate for the Modbus command selected in the Command field.

Device ID

Server IP Address

Network Address

The unit address (device ID) of the Modbus TCP server or Modbus RTU slave.

(TCP client only.) The IP address of the Modbus TCP server.

Server Port (TCP Client only)

Serial Port (Modbus RTU only)

Response Time

Fail Reg

The server port of the slave device, Modbus TCP will usually be the standard port address of 502.

This is the serial port used to connect to the device. Select the port from the drop-down list.

The amount of time the TCP client or Modbus master waits for a response from a TCP server or an RTU slave device before registering a Communications Fail.

The Comms Fail indication register can be a physical output, such as DIO #1–8 (Reg 1-8), which will turn on a digital output when in fail. It can also be configured as an internal holding register (Reg 30501), which will show the fail indication as well as any Modbus error codes. This is useful for diagnosing

communication problems. For Modbus error code descriptions, see “Modbus error codes” on

Modbus TCP mapping examples

In the example in

Figure 62

, the first mapping (#1) shows the

Modbus client (master) is configured to read analog values from a device connected on the LAN. The mappings function code is

“Read” and is reading a count of four values (analogs) from the

Ethernet address 192,168.0.17, device ID #10, starting at address

User Manual MN032006EN

Effective May 2018

30001, and then writing these values into its own local registers, starting at 40501. The server port is 502, which is a standard Modbus

TCP port address. If the mapping fails to communicate to the TCP server, it will write a value of “1” into local register 508, indicating a communications failure.

Figure 62. Modbus TCP mapping table

The second mapping (#2) shows something similar, but instead of analog values, the values are digital. The Function code is “Read” from IP address 192.168.0.17 and device ID #10. It will read eight values starting from address 10001, and write them to the local address, starting at 501. Again, it is using the same server port of

502. If the mapping fails to communicate to the TCP server, it will write a value of “1” into local register 507, indicating that mapping failed to communicate.

The third mapping (#3) is similar to the second mapping, but instead of reading from the local Ethernet subnet (LAN) it is reading from an IP address on the radio network (another 415U module). The

Function code is “Read” from IP address 192.168.10.101 and device

ID #1. It will read four values, starting from address 10001, and write them to the local address, starting at 509. A Comms Fail register is configured at local register 506.

The fourth mapping (#4) is configured to write the values from the local analog input #1 and #2 across to a TCP server at IP address

192.168.0.17. It will write the values into the destination address

40001 and 40002 at device ID of 10. It is using the TCP server port

502 and is configured with a response time of 1000 msec. If it fails to communicate, it will turn on local register 505.

Modbus RTU master

Modbus RTU functionality allows connections to Modbus RTU slave devices via the RS-232 or RS-485 ports. Up to 100 mappings can be configured. All Modbus mappings are directed to or from the onboard I/O registers depending on the configuration (described below). The Modbus RTU master polls the slave devices via the serial port configured in the mappings.

Modbus RTU (serial) devices can also be polled if connected to remote 415U serial ports. To enable this feature the remote 415U-2 serial port must be set to “Modbus RTU Master” mode and the

TCP mappings must reflect the correct server IP address and port number of the remote 415U. Polling TCP servers or RTU slaves over the radio network will greatly increase radio communications and is not recommended for busy systems.

Example

The Modbus RTU mapping is very similar to the Modbus TCP mapping except that the destination is a serial interface instead of an

Ethernet address and port.

In the example in

Figure 63

, the first mapping (#1) shows a read mapping from a serial device connected on the RS-485 port with a device ID of 5. It is reading one I/O point, starting at remote address

30001, and writing the value into the local address 40501. It is configured with a response timeout of 1000 msec, and local register

508 will indicate a failure to communicate with this device.

Figure 63. Modbus RTU example

The second mapping (#2) shows a read mapping from a serial device connected on the RS-485 port with a device ID of 5. It is reading

16 I/O points, starting at remote address 10001, and writing the value into the local address 501. It is configured with a response timeout of 1000 msec, and local register 507 will indicate a failure to communicate with this device.

The third mapping (#3) is a write mapping that will write the local battery voltage (Reg 30007) to register 40001 on a serial device connected on the RS-232 with a device ID of 6. Again, the response timeout is 1000 msec, and it has a communications fail register of 506.

DNP3 protocol configuration

The DNP3 protocol is widely used in many industries to provide monitoring and control of remote plants and equipment. You can enable support for DNP3 in 415U modules with the purchase of a

feature license key (see “Feature license keys” on page 51

User Manual MN032006EN

Effective May 2018

This chapter describes how to use the MConfig utility to configure

DNP3 settings once you have enabled the DNP3 feature in the 415U.

Connection TypeSets the connection type to match your DNP3 master connection:

UDP

—Uses UDP Protocol to communicate with the master.

TCP Listen

—(Default) This option uses TCP protocol to communicate with the master. The device waits for a connection from the master.

Sets the keep alive time. The outstation (this device) sends a check transmission to the DNP3 master if there is no communication from the master within the keep alive time. To avoid unnecessary check transmissions, set the keep alive time to a longer period than the master poll time.

Note

: If you are using a TCP connection, this parameter controls how long the outstation waits before it resets its

TCP connection after the link is lost. If the master station drops its TCP connection through lost communications it cannot reconnect to the device until this timeout is completed. Setting the keep alive to a short time reduces the time to re-establish a connection. However, it also increases the number of check transmissions from outstations. For large networks with limited bandwidth, we recommend using the UDP connection type with a keep alive time that is longer than the master poll time

Sets the DNP3 address of the master station that will control the 415U device.

Master IP

Address

Sets the IP address of the DNP3 master station.

You do not need to set this parameter if the

Connection Type is set to TCP Listen because the device will accept connections from any DNP3 master station with the address you specified in the Master DP3 Address field. If you are using TCP

Listen and do not want to select a DNP3 master

IP address, clear the Use checkbox to disable the

Master IP Address.

The Master IP Address parameter is required if the

Connection Type is set to UDP or TCP Dual.

Note

: You also need to set the devices IP address to match the requirements of your system.

For more information, see “Network settings” on page 20.

Initial UDP Port

Sets the TCP or UDP port number to use for the DNP3 outstation (this device). The standard port number for DNP3 is

20000. You only need to change this if your system uses a non-standard port number.

Sets the TCP or UDP port number of the master station. If the Connection Type is set to UDP or TCP Dual, you need to set this value to the port number that the DNP3 master uses to receive incoming connections. This parameter is not available if the Connection Type is set to TCP Listen.

Sets the UDP port that the remote station uses to send UDP messages to the master station before there is a connection from the master station. This parameter is only available when the Connection Type is set to UDP.

I/O configuration

You can change the way that I/O data is reported by the 415U DNP3 outstation. By default, all the on-board I/O report as polling class 0 only (integrity poll). To enable event reporting of the I/O, you need to configure the I/O polling class. You may also want to change the dead band parameter for analog and counter inputs, and scaling for analog inputs and for analog outputs.

To configure a DNP3 I/O, click the I/O type under

DNP3

in the project tree. There are five supported I/O types:

•

Binary Inputs

Binary Outputs

•

Counters

Analog Inputs

Analog Outputs

Note

: The 415U has a large number of registers that are not listed in the

I/O configuration. By default, only physical I/O points can be accessed from the DNP3 master. You can add additional registers to the DNP3 point list by adding entries to the appropriate I/O configuration section

When you add 115S Expansion I/O modules to a 415U device configuration, the I/O of the 115S device are automatically added to the DNP3 I/O list. You can add 115S expansion I/O devices by clicking

IO in the MConfig project tree. For more information, see “Adding an expansion I/O to CConfig” on page 27.

Every DNP3 I/O needs to be configured with a polling class and register number:

•

Polling Class

—The following options are available for polling class:

•

No Class

—Points with this class can only be retrieved via an

•

• explicit read from the master. They are not reported in response to class polls from the master

Class 0

—Points with this class have their current value reported in response to a class 0 poll from the master (integrity poll). No events are recorded for this class.

Class 1, Class 2, Class 3—

Points in these classes are reported to the master station with time-stamped events in response to a corresponding poll from the master. Additionally, they have their current value reported in response to a class 0 poll in the same manner as for points configured with polling Class 0.

Register Number

—The register number relates the DNP3 I/O point to the register location within the device. You can determine the DNP3 point index of an I/O point by subtracting the base register number for that type of register. For example, the

DNP3 point index for analog input #4 (register number 30004) is 30004 – 30001 = 3.

Analog inputs

The configuration for analog inputs defines how change events are reported (dead band) and how the value is scaled when it is reported. The dead-band value limits the number of event reports generated by the analog input when the input is configured in polling class 1, 2, or 3. Once the analog input generates a change event, no additional events are generated until the register value has changed by more than the dead-band value.

To configure how a DNP3 variable is scaled, you can select from a list of commonly used scaling values or configure your own custom scaling by entering two reference points. A graph provides feedback on the configured scaling and the configured dead band

•

Enable Network Time Protocol (NTP) to retrieve the time and date from a remote time server. This method requires network access to an NTP server.

If you set the date and time manually, keep in mind that the date and time function does not support time zones or daylight savings time. Normally you should set the time to UTC (Universal Time). You can set the time to your local time, but you will need to remember to change the time if your location uses daylight savings. When the time is set manually, the module uses an internal real-time-clock to keep time during loss of power. This real time clock has power to run for at least twelve hours (typical 3-5 days). If the duration of the power loss is too long, the time at power restoration will be the time that power was lost.

To use the NTP feature, you need network access to an NTP server.

You can use a public server, or set up your own server. Most modern operation systems (such as Microsoft

Windows and Linux) can be configured to operate as an NTP server. If the NTP server is on a different sub-network, you may need to configure routing rules to allow the device to reach the NTP server. Use the “Ping” command

Bridge: Data packets are transparently passed between the radio and Ethernet ports using rules learned from traffic that has already passed.

Router: Only IP packets are passed between the radio and Ethernet, which are on separate sub-networks. You configure the rules for which packets are transferred on the routing configuration page.

Bridge STP Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a method of removing routing loops in bridged networks. You can enable this feature and set the bridge priority if your network topology includes routing loops.

I P Address/Subnet Mask: When the network mode is set to Bridge, the Ethernet and Wireless interfaces are bridged together, and the device has a single IP Address accessible from either interface.

Ethernet IP Address/Netmask: When the network mode is set to Router, the Ethernet and Wireless interfaces on the device each have separate IP addresses. This sets the IP address for the

Ethernet interface.

Wireless IP Address/Netmask: When the network mode is set to

Advanced Radio Configuration

You reach the Advanced Radio Configuration page by clicking the link at the bottom of the Radio Setup page above.

The configuration items on this page are set correctly for the vast majority of applications. Changing items on this page could impact your radio system performance, and may stop it operating. Normally you won’t need to change any of the items on this page.

Link Management Settings

These settings impact the maintenance and formation of links between devices. Some radio traffic is required to maintain and establish the links. Adjusting these times will affect this.

Beacon Interval This setting applies to Access Point (Manual mode), Base (ProMesh and Fixed Link modes),

Mesh Node (ProMesh) and Repeater (Fixed Link) stations. These stations regularly send a special beacon message to identify themselves and allow other devices to connect to them.

You can change the interval between beacons with this setting. You may need to increase this interval if you have a very large number of devices in close proximity which are all sending beacons.

ProMesh Mesh Node stations only send beacons when they are acting as a repeater for another station.

Thistimeout determines how long the upstream device will maintain a link without receiving any message from the downstream device. When this time expires, the downstream device is removd from the connectivity list.

Management frames co-ordinate link establishment and maintenance between radio devices. This is the number of times that management frames are re-transmitted if no response is received.

The timeout waiting for a response to a management frame before re-transmitting the message.

This timeout determines how long the downstream device will maintain a linke without receiving any beacon message from the upstream device (AP).

Multiply this by the Beacon Time to find the timeout.

Performance and Contention Settings

These settings control the way the radio accesses the shared radio channel, and how contention for the radio channel between multiple devices is handled.

RTS Threshold his value sets the messages size where RTS contention control is activated. RTS contention control sends a short message to reserve the radio channel before sending the longer message.

If you have a system with large messages and where remote stations cannot receive each other’s messages, then setting this to a value of 100 may help reduce contention.

The radio won’t start looking for alternative upstream device until the RSSI reaches this level

The radio won’t change to another upstream unless it is at least this amount better than the current connection.

This settin applies to ProMesh mode. The

MeshNode won’t connect to a multi-hop path unless the path’s adjusted RSSI is at least this good.

When the network topology changes due to roaming or ProMesh changes, the internal MAC routing tables throughout the netwrok need to be refreshed.

This is done by the transmission of a Gratuitous

ARP message. If you have a large number of host device s connected to the ethernet on one radio, you should adjust this setting.

Traffic Control

Make radio statistics available in the on-board registers (30421-30490).

Traffic Control applies intelligent filters to Ethernet network traffic reaching the radio network. Host protocols that are designed for high speed network can sometimes re-try messages before the original message has been delivered, and can sometimes send out multiple requests in a very short period. Two protocols that will typically impact radio traffic are ARP and TCP (during connection establishment).These settings limit the number of outstanding requests (ARP and TCP) that can be active at one time. This limits the traffic reaching the radio network.

Rate limiting is achieved by setting an Interval and a maximum number of messages to transmit during the interval. If there are a large number of remote devices in your system, it may be advisable to set the number and the interval both higher.

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Repeaters

Repeaters setting allows you to configure arbitrary radio networks between different devices. Repeaters configuration is only available to devices configured as Access Point (Manual mode).

The Repeaters configuration is managed automatically in ProMesh mode and in Fixed Link mode.

he 415U networking architecture allows an arbitary set of Virtual

Client and Virutal Access Point devices to be configured to provide arbitarily complex netwoks.

Use the “Add Entry”, button to add a row to the repeaters table.

Once this is complete, select the following:

Connection Mode Select the desired connection mode This is either “Client/Station (Uplink)”. or “Access Point

(Downlink)”. This creates a virtual network endpoint, which you can use to connect to another Endpoint with matching SSID.

SSID This is the SSID of the Access Point you want to connect to. If you’re connecting to a Fixed links network, this is the device name of the

Repeater or Base that you want to connect to.

For Roaming in a fixed links network, and for

ProMesh connection, this is the System Name.

Encryption

Passphrase

This is set to match the encryption used in the remote endpoint you want to connect to.

This is set to match the encryption passphrase in the remote endpoint you want to connect to.

IP Routing

If your system is divided into multiple IP Subnetworks, then you might need to configure IP Routing rules to allow IP data from the

215U-2 to reach its destination IP address.

If your Base station or Access Point is configured for Routed

Network mode, you will need to add routing rules or to set the

Gateway IP to allow messages from your 215U-2 to get out from the radio network onto the Ethernet network.

Use the “Add Entry”, “Insert Entry” and “Delete Entry” buttons to manipulate the rows in the routing rules table so that you have one row for each routing rule.

The order of routing rules in the table is not important. They are always applied in order from most specific to least specific.

Nevertheless, to help with understanding the routing rules, you should order the table in this way.

Once your table entry is complete, set the following:

Name

Destination

Netmask

Gateway

Enabled

Network Filtering

Create a descriptive name for the rule to remind you of the purpose of this rule at a later date.

This is the destination network IP address.

Combined with the Netmask in the following field, this determines which destination IP addresses the rule applies to.

This is the IP Network mask for the destination network IP address.

This is the IP address of the gateway device that is used to reach the destination IP network. All packets that are destined for an IP address on the Destination network will be forwarded to this

Gateway address for delivery to the destination network.

You can enable or disable routing rules. Check this box to activate the rule.

This configuration screen allows you to set up rules that stop unwanted traffic from entering your network. The filter applies to traffic coming from the Ethernet port which would otherwise be automatically sent over the radio network. This can be useful to reduce radio message traffic when a device is connected to a busy

Ethernet network where the majority of traffic is not destined for the radio network.

N otee:

It is possible to configure filtering that stops your PC from accessing the device’s web pages. If you are unable to access the device from the

Ethernet port after configuring Filtering rules, you can either: Access the device from the USB connection; or restore the device’s default network settings. For instructions, see “Restoring the factory default connection settings” on page 38.

Easy IP Filtering allows you to quickly configure filtering for a network that will only use IP protocols. If your network only uses IP protocols and IP Addresses in a single range, then use this method to configure your filtering.

Only allow IPv4 and ARPe:

Select this option if all of the devices on your network use IP protocol communications (TCP/IP or UDP protocols). This will automatically block all non-IP protocols from reaching the radio network.

Enable Easy IP Filteringe:

Select this option if all your devices’ IP addresses are within a single range of addresses. By setting the first and last IP addresses, only IP messages within this range will be able to reach the radio network.

First Radio/Device

Select the lowest IP address of the devices on the radio network.

Last Radio/Device

Select the highest IP address of the devices on the network.

N otee:

Easy IP Filtering is a simple method to set up IP Filter rules. The IP

Filter Rules table is disabled if you select Easy IP Filtering.

For more complex networks, where Easy IP Filtering does not provide the necessary functionality, you may need to set up multiple filtering rules to fully manage the network traffic.

IP Whitelist or Blacklist:

Set this to “Whitelist” if you want to allow messages that meet the IP Filter Rules. Set this to “Blacklist” if you want to exclude messages that meet the IP Filtering Rules.

N otee:

If you set this to Blacklist, and you haven’t selected “Only allow IPv4 and ARP” above, then the filter will block the specified messages, but any non-IP protocol messages will pass through the filter.

IP Filter Rules: These rules apply by checking the source address and destination IP addresses and ports of the message. A rule will match a message if the IP address is within the defined range, and the Port number is within the defined range.

Use the “Add Entry”, “Insert Entry” and “Delete Entry” buttons to manipulate the rows in the table. For each row in the table, enter the parameters:

Enable

IP Address

Min/Max

Port Min/Max:

Protocol

Check this to enable the rule. To temporarily disable a rule you can clear this checkbox.

These are the first and last IP addresses that this rule applies to.

This is the range of IP Port numbers (TCP or

UDP Ports) that the rule applies to.

You can set this to allow only one protocol type

(TCP, UDP or ICMP) or all three protocol types.

N otee:

When you select any of these protocols, ARP messages for the corresponding IP address range are also allowed by default. For ICMP type messages, the port range values are ignored.

MAC Filter Rules:

These rules apply by checking the source MAC of the message. A rule will match a message if the source MAC matches the configured value.

Messages that match any of the MAC filter rules are immediately passed (whitelist) or dropped (blacklist), and are not checked by the IP Filter

Rules. Messages that do not match any filter rules in the whitelist are also immediately dropped. Messages that do not match any rules in a blacklist are passed and subsequently checked by the IP Filter Rules.

Use the “Add Entry”, “Insert Entry” and “Delete Entry” buttons to manipulate the rows in the table. For each row in the table, enter the parameters:

DHCP Server

Check this to enable the rule. To temporarily disable a rule you can clear this checkbox.

This is the MAC address that this rule applies to.

You can configure one device in your network to act as a DHCP server for other devices in the network. This lets you automatically assign IP addresses to devices that join the network. This is most useful when you want to access the network with a device such as tablet or PC to connect to the devices in the network at their fixed network addresses.

N otee:

You must ensure there is only one DHCP server on your local bridged network. When your Base site is configured as a Bridge (Default), this includes DHCP servers connected to the Ethernet network that is connected to your Base station. When your Base site is configured as a Router, the

DHCP server will only operate on the radio network.

This sets the range of IP Addresses that are assigned to devices that connect to the network.

Make sure that this address range does not overlap any existing fixed address assignments you have made on your network. Normally this range will be part of the same IP network address range as the other devices on your network.

If the connected devices need a default gateway, you can enter this IP address here. Otherwise, leave this blank.

If the connected devices will be using DNS

(Domain Name Service) to register or lookup device names, enter the IP addresses of the primary (and secondary) DNS Servers here.

Otherwise, leave these blank.

This is the amount of time that connected devices are allocated an IP address. Once the lease time expires, the IP address becomes available for allocation to other DHCP client devices.

N otee:

The lease time in conjunction with the IP range limits the number of devices that can be assigned DHCP addresses within a particular period. If all of the available IP addresses are allocated to devices then new devices won’t be able to join the network until some of the existing leases expire.

VLAN Configuration

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) provides a method of segregating a single bridged network into multiple virtual networks that are logically separated. This allows segregation and prioritization of traffic in your network.

N otee:

VLAN is an advanced networking technique. You should only need to configure VLAN functionality if you have to interoperate with a network that already uses VLAN.

The following configuration items are available for VLAN.

VLAN Mode

To disable VLAN functionality, select mode

“VLAN Passthrough”. To enable the VLAN, select mode “VLAN Aware”.

When you select mode “VLAN Aware”, the IP

Address and Subnet Mask settings on the main

Quick Start page are ignored. The settings for

Management IP/Netmask on this page are used instead.

N otee:

It is possible to configure a VLAN setup that stops your PC from accessing the device’s web pages. If you are unable to access the device from the Ethernet port after configuring VLAN rules, you can either: Access the device from the USB connection; or restore the device’s default network settings. For instructions, see “Restoring the factory default connection settings” on Page 39.

Add VLAN Group Click this button to add another VLAN Group.

You can add multiple VLAN groups, with each group corresponding to a separate VLAN network. The first VLAN that you add is the

Management VLAN, which provides access to the device Configuration on the new VLAN using the same IP Address as configured on the Quick

Start page.

Name You can add a descriptive name for each VLAN group. By default the first VLAN is named

“Management VLAN”.

VLAN ID

VLAN Priority

Bridge STP/

Priority

This is the 16-bit number that uniquely identifies the VLAN. Each configured VLAN Group should have a separate VLAN ID.

This is the QoS priority given to messages on this VLAN when sending over the radio channel.

The radio channel takes this setting into account when prioritizing access to the radio for multiple separate VLANs.

These settings enable Spanning Tree Protocol on this VLAN. Spanning Tree Protocol is required where there are bridging loops which would otherwise allow packets to circulate continuously on the network.

Interface Membership for VLAN: This allows you to set which interfaces are part of the VLAN. The 215U-2 has two interfaces which can join the VLAN; The Ethernet Interface and the

Wireless Interface.

N otee:

The USB interface is reserved for local access to the device and cannot be connected to a VLAN.

Interface

Type

Select the desired interface(s) to be connected to the VLAN. Use the “Add Entry” button to add an additional interface. (You need to select at least one interface for the VLAN to be reachable at the device)

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Logic Configuration

The 415U modules support a simple programming language to allow you to control the I/O registers on the device. This allows you to perform simple control actions, such a setting an output depending on the state of several inputs, generating a on-off “heartbeat” signal, or calculating total flow volume by accumulating a flow rate.

To configure, you enter a list of instructions for the Logic Engine to execute. Each instruction can read or write an I/O register, can perform an mathematical or logical operaiton, make a comparison, or perform a branch to another instruction line.

This list is executed every 250milli-seconds (four times per second). terminate in time so that the execution of the Statement list will not exceed the maximum allowed cycle time.

The Logic engine aims to execute the full statement list once every

0.25 Sec. This is the cycle time. Each execution of the statement list has a deadline that is 1.25 seconds after the target completion time.

If the execution cycle does not complete before the deadline, the execution of the remaining statements in the cycle is aborted. When this happens, the Diagnostic register is set to the value 32768. This means that you can rely on timers being no more than 1.25 second late as long as the Diagnostic register doesn’t indicate overrun. The

Logic engine is designed to be capable of executing up to 1000 instructions without exceeding the deadline.

If the list does not complete in time (overrun), then the Logic engine aborts the current execution, and flags the overrun condition in the

Logic engine status register (register 30491)

Register 30491

Meaning

Logic engine is Stopped

Click the “More” link on the device webpage, or refer to the appendix in this manual for a more detailed description of the available operations.

Figure 83. IO Plus Configuration

You configure the Logic functionality as a list of operations to perform in the table “Statement List”.

Use the “Add Entry” to append a new line to the table. Use “Insert entry” to insert an line into the table at the current position, and use

“Delete Entry” to delete the current line of the table.

Toe enable the logic operation, ensure that “Enable” is checked, and click the “Save and Activate Changes” button. After making changes, you can use the “Save and Activate Changes” button to quickly test the operation.

Statement List Execution and Timing

The device executes a software process that reads and performs the actions programmed in the statement list. The statements in the list are executed by this process in the defined order until the end of the list is reached. The logic process then waits until it is time to begin the next execution cycle, and again executes the statements in the list. This execution cycle is repeated again and again while the device is operating.

The statement list can include branch instructions which cause the control flow to follow a different path, so every statement in the list will not necessarily be executed on each execution cycle. It is also possible to develop looping constructs within the statement list, so a group of instructions could be executed multiple times during one execution cycle. Care must be taken to ensure that any loops will

Statement List Overview

Operations

There are a number of configurable operations and each one will perform a specific task, whether it be loading a value, storing a value, applying a logical or mathematical operation or applying some other operational instruction, i.e. Jumping , setting or calling.

“I” (Immediate)

When selected the instruction will use the actual value that is entered into the “Value/Register” column. When de-selected, it will use the value as the register location to use as the argument.

When selected for JUMP and CALL instructions, the instruction uses the value entered as an offset from the current line number, rather than the absolute line number to transfer to.

“N” (Negate)

When selected this allows the argument to be negated (opposite) before it is used by the instruction. i.e.

“{“ (Delayed Calculation)

Allows you to evaluate the argument to a statement using multiple calculation steps. You can have up to 20 levels of nesting sub-blocks to perform a calculation..

Value /Register

The value or register location that will be used by the operation.

Click

IO Diagnostics

from the home page of the Web-based configuration utility to read and write I/O store registers within the module.

To read a register location, enter an address location (for example,

10001 for digital inputs), enter a count (number of consecutive registers), and then click

Read

(see

Figure 84

). The returned address

location and the returned values appears at the bottom of the page.

To write to outputs, enter the address location, count, and value, and then click

Write

. You will see the outputs change to the value you entered. For example, write to Register 1 with a count of 8 and a value of 1 will turn all the local digital outputs on. Write to Register

40001 with a count of 2 and a value of 49152 will set the two local physical analog outputs to 20 mA.

Note

: If the symbol “~“ appears beside the register value when reading a register, it indicates that the register has been initialized to the “Invalid” state through the fail-safe configuration. I/O Mapping messages that include an invalid register are disabled until all o fhte source data is valid. .

Note

: If the symbol “*“ appears beside the register value when reading a register, it indicates that the register has been set to it’s failsafe value through the fail-safe configuration. It can still be sent via a regular mapping. This flag is available through the DNP3 protocol when reading the DNP3 Data Quality flags.

A mapping will only be sent when all registers have a value (no “~” symbols) . To set an initial value for registers upon startup, use the

Fail-safe Block Configuration menu in the Web-based configuration

utility or use the CConfig utility (see “Fail-safe blocks” on

page

). If there is a mapping configured and any one of the source register values has the value “~“ the mapping will not be sent (see

“Invalid register state” on

page 29

Using the I/O Diagnostics page, you can check the register locations for the “~“ and “*” symbols and even write values if required. If you see the value “3” when reading the status of the DIO on the module it indicates that the DIO is being used as an output in the

“on” state.

Watchdog error log

The module uses a various processes to control aspects of its internal functions, such as radio operation, I/O functionality, Ad hoc

On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) communications, and Modbus communications. Each process runs independently, and can interact with the other processes to provide a robust wireless I/O product.

All processes are monitored by an internal “watchdog.” If a processes has a problem and stops running, the watchdog will identify the problem and restart the module. The watchdog also creates a text file showing which process had the problem. This text file is stored in a directory called ”dog” off the main root IP address of the module. To display this text file in your browser, enter http://<module IP Address>/dog/,

If the watchdog directory continues to show text files, it may indicate a problem with the module or its configuration. If this

happens, save the module configuration (see “System tools” on page 49) and the list of watchdog files, and then contact Eaton

technical support.

The following table describes the different watchdog processes.

Statistics registers also record information about downstream connections. These registers are used by all devices that have downstream connections—Base station, Repeater, and Manual

Mode Access Points. For Manual Mode clients, and for Field Station devices, these registers are unused and available as general purpose storage.

Diagnostic registers—device statistics

Commonly used statistics for diagnostics and system monitoring can be logged to onboard I/O Registers. These registers may then be accessed via an external device using any of the supported I/O transfer protocols (WIB, MODBUS, DNP3). By default, logging of statistics to I/O registers is enabled.

When statistics logging is enabled, the statistics are logged to

Analog Input Registers. These are listed in detail in “Input registers

(words)” on page 68.

Statistics registers provide the following information about the upstream connection (Towards the base station). If the module is configured as a base, or configured in manual mode without any

Client functionality, then these registers will be zero.

RSSI List: This is a block of 255 register locations. For each downstream device, the last byte of the device’s IP address is used to determine which location to store the signal strength. For example, a downstream device with IP Address 192.168.0.199 will have its RSSI stored in I/O register offset 199. If no device is connected with the IP address, the register has the value Zero.

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Data logging

The data logging feature allows you to record the status of I/O registers on a regular basis. Data is saved to non-volatile memory, and can be retrieved at a later time.You can enable data logging on 415U modules with the purchase of a feature key license (see

“Feature license keys” on

page 51

Data is logged to an internal data file in “.csv” format. Each row of the file is a single record, consisting of a timestamp and values of all of the configured log items at that time. When the file reaches a configured maximum number of rows, the file is “rolled,” that is, the file is compressed and archived and a new log file is created.

The amount of memory available for storing logged data depends on the device type. The available data logging memory is indicated in the log files. When the memory is full, the oldest data log file is deleted.

The 415U series supports up to 500KByte of data log memory in compressed files.

Configuring data logging

To configure data logging, you need to specify how frequently the data is to be stored, what data is to be stored, and the maximum number of records stored in each log file. Click

Digital inputs

LEDs display the status of each of the eight DIOs when used as inputs. If the LED is on, it indicates that the input is on.

Digital outputs

When the DIOs are used as outputs, the LEDs display the status of each of the digital outputs. If an LED is on, it indicates that the output is on. The LEDs also indicate if the output is in a fail-safe state by flashing at different rates. If an LED is mostly on (long on) it indicates that the fail-safe state shown on the Digital Output

Configuration page (in MConfig utility) is on. If an LED is mostly off

(long off) it indicates that the fail-safe state shown on the Digital

Output Configuration page (in the MConfig utility) is off. See “Failsafe blocks” on

page 28

for details.

Analog inputs

There are two LEDs for each differential analog input. The first LED

(+) is used to indicate that the analog input is reading a current (mA).

The second LED (–) indicates that the input is reading voltage. Each of the analog input LEDs will come ON when a signal is present at the analog input. (greater than 0.5mA for current, greater than 0.5V for voltage).

For each of the single-ended analog channels, the LED indicates will come ON when a signal is present at the analog input. (greater than

0.5mA for current, greater than 0.5V for voltage).

Analog outputs

Each analog output has an LED in series that indicates the output current by increasing or decreasing the intensity of the LED. For example, at 4 mA the LED appears dimmed, and at 20 mA, the LED appears bright.

Ethernet LEDs

On the end plate, the Ethernet socket incorporates two LEDs that indicate the Ethernet status.

User Manual MN032006EN

Effective May 2018

Expansion I/O registers

Adding expansion I/O modules to the 415U will automatically add the I/O from the 115S modules to the internal 415U I/O store. To calculate the register location in the I/O store, find the address of the I/O point in the tables in this appendix, and then add the offset.

The offset is the Modbus address, multiplied by 20.

Examples:

•

Digital input #1 on an 115S-11 with address 5 would be: (5x20)

+10001 = 10101

•

Digital output #2 on an 115S-11 with address 6 would be: (6x20)

+2 = 122

Analog input #3 on an 115S-12 with address 3 would be: (3x20)

+30003 = 30063.

Analog output #8 on an 115S-13 with address # 7 would be:

(7x20) + 40007 = 40147

Meaning

The function code received in the query is not an allowable action for the server (or slave).

This may be because the function code is only applicable to newer devices, and was not implemented in the unit selected. It might also indicate that the server (or slave) is in the wrong state to process a request of this type.

The data address received in the query is not an allowable address for the server (or slave).

More specifically, the combination of reference number and transfer length is invalid. For a controller with 100 registers, the PDU addresses the first register as 0, and the last one as 99.

If a request is submitted with a starting register address of 96 and a quantity of 4 registers, this request will successfully operate on registers 96, 97, 98, 99. If a request is submitted with a starting register address of 96 and a quantity of 5, this request will fail with Exception Code

0x02 “Illegal Data Address.”

A value contained in the query data field is not an allowable value for server (or slave). This indicates a fault in the structure of the remainder of a complex request. For example, it may indicate that the implied length is incorrect. It does not mean that a data item submitted for storage in a register has a value outside the expectation of the application program.

The Modbus protocol is unaware of the significance of any particular value of any particular register.

An unrecoverable error occurred while the server (or slave) was attempting to perform the requested action.

Specialized use in conjunction with programming commands.

The server (or slave) has accepted the request and is processing it, but significant time will be required to complete this task. This response is returned to prevent a timeout error from occurring in the client (or master).

Specialized use in conjunction with programming commands.

The server (or slave) is engaged in processing a long–duration program command. The client

(or master) should retransmit the message later when the server (or slave) is free.

Specialized use in conjunction with function codes 20 and 21 and reference type 6, to indicate that the extended file area failed to pass a consistency check.

Specialized use in conjunction with gateways. Indicates that the gateway was unable to allocate an internal communication path from the input port to the output port for processing the request. Typically indicates that the gateway is mis-configured or overloaded.

Specialized use in conjunction with gateways. Indicates that no response was obtained from the target device. Typically indicates that the device is not present on the network.

Command type or slave address did not match request (probably another unit).

Could not connect to the Modbus TCP server.

Local address is invalid in the command. The memory location does not exist or is not initialized.

There was no response to the poll message.

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway

Full firmware upgrade

You can upgrade the firmware using a USB flash drive containing the firmware files. A full USB upgrade is necessary if a patch file is not available or the existing firmware is a much older version and would require multiple patch files to upgrade to the latest version.

Note

: The feature keys and configuration are not changed or erased during a full upgrade.

The following procedure provides instructions for performing a full

USB firmware upgrade on a 415U.

Requirements

•

USB flash drive

•

Firmware files (contact ELPRO technical support for these files)

PC for transferring files

To prepare the USB flash drive

Not all USB flash drives are configured correctly for use as a firmware upgrade drive. Use the following procedure to check the configuration of the USB drive and re-configure the drive if necessary.

1. Plug USB drive into the USB port on the PC and wait until

Windows recognizes the drive and completes the driver installation.

2. Open the Windows Start menu, choose Run, and then enter

“CMD” to open a command prompt. Then, type “diskpart” at the command prompt. This opens the Diskpart utility.

C:\>diskpart

Microsoft DiskPart version 6.1.7601

Corporation.

On computer: TEST_COMPUTER

3. Type command “list disk” to list available disks, and identify the

USB drive based on the size.

In the following example, the USB drive is a 1911 MB (2 GB) drive, which corresponds to Disk 1.

•

Partition 1Primary 1910 MB 64 KB

If the “Offset” is zero or if there is more than one partition, as shown in the examples below, go to steps 6 and 7 below to re-configure the drive.

6. Enter the command “clean” to delete all partitions on the disk, and then enter “list disk” to check that all memory is now free.

In the example below, the asterisk ( * ) indicates that Disk 1 is the selected disk.

DiskPart succeeded in cleaning the disk.

DISKPART> list disk

8. Finally, format the drive using the Diskpart command line. The file system format should be selected as FAT32 using the option

“fs=fat32”. You can select any convenient label. In the example below the label “FW_UPGRADE” was used.

Disk 0Online232 GB0 B

Disk 1Online 1911 MB0 B

4. When you have identified the USB disk, enter the “select Disk

X” command to select this disk.

WARNING

THE COMMANDS THAT FOLLOW THIS STEP CAN DESTROY THE CONTENTS

OF THE SELECTED DISK, MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE SELECTED THE

CORRECT DRIVE BEFORE CONTINUING. SELECTING THE WRONG DRIVE

COULD FORMAT YOUR PC’S HARD DRIVE.

DiskPart successfully formatted the volume.

Alternatively, you can format the drive from within the Windows

GUI environment using the following procedure.

5. Enter the command “list partition” to check how the USB drive is partitioned.

•

This command indicates whether the drive is correctly configured for use as a firmware upgrade drive on the 415U.

If the drive contains only one partition and the “Offset” value is non-zero, as shown in the example below, you can proceed to format the drive and use it “as is” for firmware upgrade. Skip to step 7 for instructions on how to format the drive using the

Diskpart utility.

GNU General public license

Version 2, June 1991

51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public

License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.

This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software

Foundation’s software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.

Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

Terms And Conditions For Copying, Distribution And

Modification

This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the

Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the

Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: a. You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. b. You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. c. If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.

If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the

Program and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the

Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: a. Accompany it with the complete corresponding machinereadable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, b. Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three

EATON

Effective May 2018

415U Condor-long-range wireless I/O and gateway years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, c. Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this

License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this

License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this

License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this

License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the

Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software

Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software

Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,

THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE

EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN

OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS

AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS”

WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR

IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A

PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY

AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.

SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME

THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR

CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR

AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,

OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR

REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE

LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,

SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES

ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE

PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF

DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES

SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE

PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN

IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF

THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

An access point connects wireless network stations (or clients) to other stations within the wireless network and also can serve as the point of interconnection between the wireless network and a wired network. Each access point can serve multiple users within a defined network area. Also known as a base station.

Antennas do not increase the transmission power, but instead focus the signal. Rather than transmitting in every direction (including the sky and ground), antenna focus the signal either more horizontally or in one particular direction. This gain is measured in decibels.

Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) Routing is a routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks and other wireless ad hoc networks. In AODV, the network is silent until a connection is needed. At that point the network node that needs a connection broadcasts a request for connection. Other AODV nodes forward this message, and record the node that they heard it from, creating an explosion of temporary routes back to the needy node. When a node receives such a message and already has a route to the desired node, it sends a message backwards through a temporary route to the requesting node. The needy node then begins using the route that has the least number of hops through other nodes. Unused entries in the routing tables are recycled after a time.

American wire gauge (AWG), also known as the Brown and Sharpe wire gauge, is a standardized wire gauge system used predominantly in the United

States and Canada for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire.

The maximum data transfer speed available to a user through a network.

Change of state. For a digital input, a COS is a change from “off” to “on,” or a change from “on” to “off.” For an analog input, internal analog input, or pulse input rate, a COS is a configurable value called sensitivity.

The Canadian Standards Association (CSA), is a not-for-profit standards organization that develops standards in 57 areas. The CSA registered mark shows that a product has been independently tested and certified to meet recognized standards for safety or performance.

A Distributed Control System (DCS) is a computerized control system used to control the production line in industry. The entire system of controllers is connected by networks for communication and monitoring.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is a utility that enables a server to dynamically assign IP addresses from a predefined list and limit their time of use so that they can be reassigned. Without DHCP, an IT manager would need to manually enter in all the IP addresses of all the computers on the network.

When DHCP is used, whenever a computer logs onto the network, an IP address is automatically assigned to it.

Digital input/output.

A DIN rail is a metal rail of a standard type widely used for mounting circuit breakers and industrial control equipment inside equipment racks.

Communication protocol used in industrial control systems. Commonly used in Water supply and Electrical distribution.

Domain name service (DNS) is a program that translates URLs to IP addresses by accessing a database maintained on a collection of Internet servers.

The program works behind the scenes to facilitate surfing the Web with alpha versus numeric addresses. A DNS server converts a name like mywebsite.

com to a series of numbers like 107.22.55.26. Every website has its own specific IP address on the Internet.

An alphanumeric (letters and/or numbers) series that enables data to be encrypted and then decrypted so it can be safely shared among members of a network. WEP uses an encryption key that automatically encrypts outgoing wireless data. On the receiving side, the same encryption key enables the computer to automatically decrypt the information so it can be read. Encryption keys should be kept secret.

Equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) or, alternatively, effective isotropically radiated power is the amount of power that a theoretical isotropic antenna (which evenly distributes power in all directions) would emit to produce the peak power density observed in the direction of maximum antenna gain. EIRP can take into account the losses in transmission line and connectors and includes the gain of the antenna. The EIRP is often stated in terms of decibels over a reference power emitted by an isotropic radiator with an equivalent signal strength. The EIRP allows comparisons between different emitters regardless of type, size or form.

Forward Erro Correction. This is a method of reducing the errors in a message by adding aditional data which is used to detect and correct errors. The extra data reduces the effective data rate, but improves the sensitivity for long and dificult radio paths.

Frequency Shift Keying. This method of radio modulation encodes data using shifts in radio frequency. 2FSK uses two frequency levels to encode one bit of data for each symbol. 4FSK uses four frequency levels to encode two bits of data for each symbol.

A multiport device used to connect PCs to a network via Ethernet cabling or via 802.11. Wired hubs can have numerous ports and can transmit data at speeds ranging from 10 Mbps to multi-Gigabyte speeds per second. A hub transmits packets it receives to all the connected ports. A small wired hub may only connect four computers; a large hub can connect 48 or more.

Hertz. The international unit for measuring frequency, equivalent to the older unit of cycles per second. One megahertz (MHz) is one million hertz. One gigahertz (GHz) is one billion hertz. The standard US electrical power frequency is 60 Hz, the AM broadcast radio frequency band is 535–1605 kHz, the

FM broadcast radio frequency band is 88–108 MHz, and wireless 802.11b/g LANs operate at 2.4 GHz.

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org. A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. It has more than 300,000 members and is involved with setting standards for computers and communications.

Input/Output. The term used to describe any operation, program, or device that transfers data to or from a computer.

Internet Protocol (IP) is a set of rules used to send and receive messages across local networks and the Internet.

A 32-bit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent across the Internet. An IP address has two parts: an identifier of a particular network on the Internet and an identifier of the particular device (which can be a server or a workstation) within that network.

The industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) radio bands are portions of the radio spectrum reserved internationally for industrial, scientific, and medical purposes other than telecommunications.

Local Area Network (LAN) is a system of connecting PCs and other devices within the same physical proximity for sharing resources such as an Internet connections, printers, files, and drives.

Link quality indicator (LQI) is used in wireless networks to indicate how good the communications link is. LQI is a computed value, based on how clearly the signal is received by the radio. Interference, low signal strength, and radio transmitter or receiver faults can all contribute to poor LQI.

Definition

Media Access Control (MAC) address is a unique code assigned to most forms of networking hardware. The address is permanently assigned to the hardware, so limiting a wireless network’s access to hardware (such as wireless cards) is a security feature employed by closed wireless networks. But an experienced hacker armed with the proper tools can still figure out an authorized MAC address, masquerade as a legitimate address, and access a closed network.

Every wireless 802.11 device has its own specific MAC address hard-coded into it. This unique identifier can be used to provide security for wireless networks. When a network uses a MAC table, only the 802.11 radios that have had their MAC addresses added to that network’s MAC table will be able to get onto the network.

Modbus is a serial communications protocol for use with its programmable logic controllers (PLCs).

A programmable logic controller (PLC) is a digital computer used for automation of electromechanical processes, such as control of machinery on factory assembly lines, amusement rides, or light fixtures.

Used in larger companies and organizations to improve network operations and security, a proxy server is able to prevent direct communication between two or more networks. The proxy server forwards allowable data requests to remote servers and/or responds to data requests directly from stored remote server data.

Quadrature Amplitude Modulation. This method of radio modulation encodes data by varying the phase and amplitude of the radio signal. This allows more data to be encoded into each symbol at the expense of reduced sensitivity.

The minimum signal strength required to pick up a signal. Higher bandwidth connections usually have less receive sensitivity than lower bandwidth connections.

Standard connectors used in Ethernet networks. RJ-45 connectors are similar to standard RJ-11 telephone connectors, but RJ-45 connectors can have up to eight wires, whereas telephone connectors have four.

A device that forwards data from one WLAN or wired local area network to another.

Received signal strength indicator (RSSI) is a measurement of the power present in a received radio signal. In a radio system, RSSI is the relative received signal strength in a wireless environment, in arbitrary units. RSSI is an indication of the power level being received by the antenna. Therefore, the higher the RSSI number (or less negative in some devices), the stronger the signal.

A remote terminal unit (RTU) is a microprocessor-controlled electronic device that interfaces objects in the physical world to a distributed control system or SCADA system by transmitting telemetry data to a master system, and by using messages from the master supervisory system to control connected objects.

SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) is a type of industrial control system (ICS). Industrial control systems are computer controlled systems that monitor and control industrial processes that exist in the physical world. SCADA systems historically distinguish themselves from other ICS systems by being large scale processes that can include multiple sites, and large distances.

A computer that provides its resources to other computers and devices on a network. These include print servers, Internet servers and data servers. A server can also be combined with a hub or router.

SMA (SubMiniature version A) connectors are semi-precision coaxial RF connectors for coaxial cable with a screw type coupling mechanism. The connector has a 50 Ω impedance. It is designed for use from DC to 18 GHz.

Found in larger networks, these smaller networks are used to simplify addressing between numerous computers. Subnets connect together through a router.

A type of hub that efficiently controls the way multiple devices use the same network so that each can operate at optimal performance. A switch acts as a networks traffic cop: rather than transmitting all the packets it receives to all ports as a hub does, a switch transmits packets to only the receiving port.

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) isprotocol used along with the Internet Protocol (IP) to send data in the form of individual units (called packets) between computers over the Internet. While IP takes care of handling the actual delivery of the data, TCP takes care of keeping track of the packets that a message is divided into for efficient routing through the Internet. For example, when a Web page is downloaded from a Web server, the TCP program layer in that server divides the file into packets, numbers the packets, and then forwards them individually to the IP program layer. Although each packet has the same destination IP address, it may get routed differently through the network. At the other end, TCP reassembles the individual packets and waits until they have all arrived to forward them as single message.

The underlying technology behind the Internet and communications between computers in a network. The first part, TCP, is the transport part, which matches the size of the messages on either end and guarantees that the correct message has been received. The IP part is the user’s computer address on a network. Every computer in a TCP/IP network has its own IP address that is either dynamically assigned at startup or permanently assigned. All

TCP/IP messages contain the address of the destination network as well as the address of the destination station. This enables TCP/IP messages to be transmitted to multiple networks (subnets) within an organization or worldwide.

The power at which the wireless devices transmits, usually expressed in mW or dBm.

Transistor–transistor logic (TTL) is a class of digital circuits built from bipolar junction transistors and resistors. It is called TTL logic because both the logic gating function (AND) and the amplifying function are performed by transistors.

Wide area network (WAN) is a communication system of connecting PCs and other computing devices across a large local, regional, national or international geographic area. Also used to distinguish between phone-based data networks and Wi-Fi. Phone networks are considered WANs and

Wi-Fi networks are considered Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs).

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a basic wireless security provided by Wi-Fi. In some instances, WEP may be all a home or small-business user needs to protect wireless data. WEP is available in 40-bit (also called 64-bit), or in 108-bit (also called 128-bit) encryption modes. As 108-bit encryption provides a longer algorithm that takes longer to decode, it can provide better security than basic 40-bit (64-bit) encryption.

Wireless Fidelity. An interoperability certification for wireless local area network (LAN) products based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics

Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standard.
