the sensor manual.

• Check or set the sensor address. Each sensor on the RS-485 bus must have

a unique address

.

The address (ID) is expressed as a letter (A.. Z / a..z) or a number (65.. 122). The number corresponds to the ASCII code of the given letter: A=65, Z=90, a=97, z=122. For details about setting the address, see the sensor manual.

• If there is a change in the connected sensors, the sensors must be detected again

(WWW interface > Sensors >

Autodetect sensors

).

Sensors are shipped with non-conflicting addresses whenever possible. The preconfigured address is written on the label.

Note:

A particular sensor is identified by its RS-485 address. Sensors with the same address can be swapped without the need for a new detection.

Common features of the Poseidon2 family

Displayed readings

• Poseidon2 displays current readings from all connected sensors.

• Dry contact inputs are scanned approximately every 20 ms and feature pulse counters. In order to signal an alarm, the respective digital input must remain in the Alarm state for at least 900 ms.

• Values from all sensors on both buses (RS-485 and 1W bus) are read in a single loop that repeats once per second; however, the actual time needed to read all sensors may vary from

1 to 30 seconds.

• All values are in the “integer / 10” format. The range is

±

999.9.

•

A value of 999.9

is out of range for all supported sensors and indicates that the sensor was not found.

• If you have disconnected or replaced a sensor, run sensor autodetection, or remove the sensor from the list.

• When the Poseidon unit is overloaded with network requests (as is sometimes the case, for example, with our public online demo), -999.9 can sometimes appear even though the sensor works properly. This is due to limited computing performance of the unit. Try to reduce the number of direct requests.

• Measurement units are assigned to values automatically according to the detected sensor type. Supported units include:

• Temperature: °C, °K, °F (please note that Safe Range thresholds can be set in °C only)

• Humidity: %RH

• Voltage: V, current: A or mA

• Other units: %, and more...

Input / sensor in alarm state

• Alarm state can be set independently for every input (contact) / sensor.

• For a sensor, “Alarm” occurs whenever the reading is outside of the specified Safe Range, as long as alarm alerting is enabled for at least one notification method (SNMP / e-mail & SMS).

•

Response to a sensor being disconnected:

• -999.9 is displayed.

• The value evaluates as an “Alarm” (reading out of the specified Safe Range). If alarm alerting is enabled for the given sensor, e-mail or SNMP trap is sent.

Common features of the Poseidon2 family

27

Calibration

Each sensor can be calibrated by specifying a linear offset. The calibration value can be set using XML. To set the calibration value, use the Calibrator utility (available for download at

http://hw-group.us/product-version/hwg-calibrator

).

• Calibration value = +3

→

sensor measures 0.5°C

→

Poseidon2 shows +3.5 °C.

• Calibration value = -3 → sensor measures 0.5°C → Poseidon2 shows -2.5 °C.

• Calibration value = -10 → sensor measures 27% RH → Poseidon2 shows 17% RH.

Sensor hysteresis

The Hysteresis setting defines a tolerance band for alarm alerts. This feature prevents multiple alarm alerts if the reading oscillates around the specified threshold. See the graph for an explanation.

Without a hysteresis of 5°C, the alarm raised at point 8 would end at point 9. With the hysteresis function, the alarm continues until the temperature rises above the tolerance band (point 10), that is, 5 °C + (-15 °C) = -10 °C.

Poseidon2


RJ11 – 1-Wire bus

Digital bus used by Dallas Semiconductors. Each sensor has a unique ID.

We recommend to keep the total wiring length under

60 m

, although functionality has been achieved over tens to hundreds of meters in experimental settings.

If the wiring connected to one connector of the Poseidon2 unit is longer than approximately 60 m, we

cannot guarantee error-free operation

, as it greatly depends on the actual wiring implementation, topology and environment.

Active / Passive 1W port

An

active port

is the RJ11 jack at the Poseidon2 unit. It supports the full maximum cable length and provides power for all 1-Wire UNI / 1-Wire sensors.

When a sensor connected to one active port is moved to another one, it will appear disconnected. It is necessary to run the sensor auto-detection again.

A

passive port

is a RJ11 jack at a T-Hub or a RJ11 jack at a sensor (when daisy chaining). It cannot guarantee full cable length support and power for subsequent sensors. Sufficient power can be ensured with a 1-Wire hub Power unit.

RJ45 – RS-485

The RS-485 bus can be used to connect up to 31 sensors over up to 1000 m, even in industrial environments. For convenience and ease of use, TP cables and RJ45 modular jacks are used to wire the RS485 industrial bus.

The

RS-485 bus

uses the

blue pair

of wires (pins 4 and 5), labeled A and B. The

brown pair

(pins 7, 8) carries 12 V to

power

the sensors.

If you use the S-Hub unit and the B-Cable module, the

green pair

of wires (pins 3, 6) is used for the

return RS-485 connection

. The green pair of wires is not connected at the

Poseidon2 4002 unit.

•

Maximum wiring length:

up to 1000 m in total.

•

Supported sensors:

General RS-485 characteristics

• Maximum wiring length 1000 m.

• Up to 32 devices on the bus (Poseidon2 unit + 31 sensors).

• High resistance to noise in industrial environments.

• Daisy chain topology is necessary (as opposed to star topology).

• Each device must have a unique address.

• Wire polarity must be respected.

• Line must be terminated at the beginning and at the end.

RS-485 termination at the Poseidon2 side

Poseidon2 4002 includes two DIP switches, labeled TermA and

TermB, to activate RS-485 termination.

RS-485 termination

The RS-485 bus must be terminated at its end. The following options are available:

•

DIP switch

or

jumper

in certain sensors (jumper labeled TERM, TERMINATOR or BusEnd) – for example Temp-485 or HTemp-485.

• If the

B-Cable adaptor

is used, set the switches to the “LAST” configuration.

•

External resistor

for sensors without a jumper or a DIP switch (Temp-485-Pt100). Terminate the end of the RS-485 bus at the last sensor with an external resistor (connected between the

A and B terminals of the last sensor).

The resistance of this resistor should be 120 Ω . For a short wiring, up to 470 Ω can be used to reduce the current consumption of the sensors.

Note:

A disadvantage is that it is necessary to have

a wiring topology with a single beginning and a single, terminated end,

as opposed to the popular star topology with a single interconnection point.

To send e-mail, check:

1. Correct

Gateway IP

address

2.

DNS server


3.

SMTP server

and port

4.

Authentication

enabled, correct

username

and

5.

Spam filter

for your mailbox is disabled

Tip:

It is not always necessary to configure a

SMTP Server

in order to send e-mails. Poseidon2 can work as SMTP server itself and deliver the e-mails directly to the user’s mailbox. However, always test this mode in your particular environment – the e-mails sent in this mode are often blocked by various spam filters due to missing reverse MX records. Poseidon2 can only send e-mails, it cannot receive them.

Received e-mail example

This e-mail is sent upon every alarm activation and deactivation.

•

SNTP Server

– IP address or host name of the SNTP server to synchronize the time with.

Preconfigured server is

ntp1.sth.netnod.se

.

Note:

The clock does not run when Poseidon2 is powered off. The unit contains no battery. After a power failure, the time will be synchronized with the SNTP server.

Data Logger Settings

Configuration parameters for logging values to a circular buffer within the internal flash memory.

When the buffer is full, the oldest values are overwritten with the newest ones. This function is supported only by certain Poseidon2 models.

•

Log Period

– period of logging into the logfile for all values.

•

Logfile capacity

– the capacity estimate is given in days, hours and minutes. Poseidon2 calculates the capacity based on the number of sensors detected.

Caution:

When the circular buffer is full, the remaining capacity shown will be zero. Clear the buffer to find out the total capacity.

•

Report Log Period

– period for e-mailing the log.

•

Erase log after e-mail

– the log is cleared after it is e-mailed. This reduces attachment size and can speed up data transfer.

•

Open log File

– stores the current logfile to disk by invoking the external

/spilog.txt

file.

•

Clear log File

– clears all values from the logfile by calling the external

/spilog.del

PosDamIO and SDK

Poseidon Damocles I/O is a command-line utility for

Windows and Linux that lets you control Poseidon2 and

Damocles2 units over the

XML interface. It can display the states of sensors, inputs and outputs, as well as set an output high or low.

HWg SDK is a library of functions, as well as examples of their use, for Unix and

Windows. The functions are intended to help third-party

SW solutions communicate with our products over IP. SDK reduces the time needed to implement support for our products into your SW.
