Acc-72E User Manual

INTRODUCTION
This manual provides the information needed to configure a fieldbus interface for the UMAC. The ACC-
72E is equipped with a “gateway” daughter card that allows the UMAC to send and receive data through
the supported fieldbus protocol. The gateway used is the COM series, provided by the Hilscher
Corporation. Relevant hyperlinks are provided in Appendix C for in-depth information regarding these
modules.
There are two connectors located on the front of the ACC-72E. For Profibus, DeviceNET, CANopen and
ControlNET options a male DB9 connector is specified as the Diagnostic Connector and provides a
RS232 link for the SyCon software. The second connector is referred to as the fieldbus connector as it
provides a means to become connected to the fieldbus link. The form factor of this connection is
dependent on which fieldbus protocol is being utilized. For the Control & Communication Link (CC-
Link) option, the first connector is 10 pin IDC male header which provides a RS232 link for
communication with the Compro software. The second connector is the 5 pin Combicon male connector
which is the fieldbus link.
The PMAC Gateway 3U supports the following protocols:
 ProfiBus Master-Opt1 (Female DB9)
 ProfiBus Slave-Opt2 (Female DB9)
 DeviceNet Master-Opt3 (5-pin Terminal Block)
 DeviceNet Slave-Opt4 (5-pin Terminal Block)
 CANopen Master-Opt5 (Female DB9)
 CANopen Slave-Opt6 (Female DB9)
 ControlNET Adapter-Opt7 (BNC)
 CC-Link Adapter-Opt11 (5-pin Terminal Block)

The protocol is dependent upon the equipped COM gateway. The hardware cannot be programmed for an
alternate protocol including master/slave. However, should the COM gateway be replaced with one
supporting another protocol, the baseboard would function properly as a communications link to UMAC
although the fieldbus connector might be incorrect for the new fieldbus.
Most gateway cards get their power from the UBUS back plane. However, the DeviceNet version
(Options 3 & 4) require an external 24Vdc power supply for the fieldbus.
Configuring the Gateway
There are ten steps in applying the Gateway for ProfiBus, DeviceNET, CANopen and ControlNET. The
CC-Link set up is explained in its section:
1. Install the SyCon and PEWIN software on the PC.
2. With the power off, plug the ACC-72E into the UBUS backplane.
3. Connect the diagnostic interface to the serial port on the PC.
4. Launch the SyCon setup utility from the PC.
5. Establish communications to the COM gateway.
6. Configure the fieldbus and download it to the card. (The default configuration can be used for
testing.)
7. Assign PMAC M -variables to access the fieldbus bytes at the appropriate Dual Port RAM address.
8. Manually test by setting byte values in PMAC, verifying that they get to the appropriate fieldbus
location. Also, check communication from the fieldbus to PMAC.
9. Configure the gateway’s fieldbus characteristics via the diagnostic port if required by the application.

Introduction 1
Acc-72E User Manual

10. Implement the assigned M-variables in PLCs or motion programs as required. Appendix A and B
provide examples for M-variable assignment and implementation. Appendix C provides hyperlinks
to Sycon configuration files for each fieldbus device, provided by Hilscher Corp.

SyCon is provided with the gateway module under license from Hilscher Corp. PEWin32 is a Delta Tau
product and normally is purchased with the first PMAC.

2 Introduction
Acc-72E User Manual

THEORY OF OPERATION
The PMAC Gateway 3U board is organized as a motherboard/daughter board system. The motherboard
contains the UBUS interface, diagnostics, and the fieldbus connections. The daughter board contains the
intelligence and the interface electronics required for each fieldbus. There is a different daughter board
for each fieldbus.
A micro controller on the daughter board implements each fieldbus communications protocol. Fieldbus
data is transferred to/from the fieldbus and placed in a dual-port ram (memory) on the daughter board.
The structure of this DPRAM is given later in this manual and is common for all the field buses
supported. There are two different DPRAMs used, a 2K-byte device and an 8K-byte device.
The PMAC side of the DPRAM is interfaced to the UBUS. PMAC programs access the fieldbus data by
reading or writing data to memory addresses corresponding to the location of the PMAC Gateway 3U
board’s DPRAM.
PMAC Gateway Version DPRAM Size
ProfiBus Master 2k bytes
ProfiBus Slave 2k bytes
ControlNet Adapter 2k bytes
CANopen Master 8k bytes
CANopen Slave 8k bytes
DeviceNet Master 8k bytes
DeviceNet Slave (COM-DNS) 2k bytes
CC-Link Slave (COM-C-CCS) 8k bytes
UBUS Interface
The UBUS is Delta Tau’s bus interface for the UMAC controller. The PMAC Gateway 3U maps to the
UBUS as a DPRAM style board. It occupies contiguous memory locations (both X and Y memory) of
the upper byte, of the 24-bit, DPRAM addresses. Both MEMCS0 and MEMCS1 chip selects are
supported.
M-variables are mapped to these locations to move data to and from the fieldbus and PMAC. In addition
to fieldbus data, a block of memory indicates the PMAC Gateway 3U board’s status. Examples of M-
variable definitions for each fieldbus are included in this document.
How it Works
1. The PMAC Gateway board organizes fieldbus bytes in a dual-port memory on the gateway module.
These fieldbus bytes are mapped into PMAC’s memory space via the UBUS interface.
2. PMAC M-Variables are used to move data to and from the fieldbus or to control the gateway board.
3. A switch on the PMAC Gateway board sets the address of the board in PMAC’s memory space.
4. The gateway board is configurable via a serial (RS232) port. SyCon is provided with the gateway
board for this purpose.
5. Diagnostic LEDs are provided for a visual indication of the board’s status.

Theory of Operation 3
Acc-72E User Manual

PMAC Memory
PMAC uses a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) with a 24-Bit architecture that uses two memory areas – Y
and X Memory. Memory is accessed in PMAC programs using M-variables. The definition of an M-
variable includes its number, address, offset, width and type. Refer to the PMAC Manual for additional
explanation of M-variables and their specification.

PMAC Memory Organization

Consumed Process Data Flow


Consumed data (from the gateway’s point of view) flows into the DPRAM from the fieldbus and gets
mapped to the UBUS as shown in the following diagram. The 100 hex offset shown is for gateway
modules with a 2k byte DPRAM.

HARDWARE

SW1: DPRAM Address


The following settings for SW1 can be used to configure the base address of the ACC-72E Gateway card.

CS16\ Identification
The UBUS Specification provides for some plug and play features. Currently, on power up, PMAC tests
the valid UBUS base addresses to see if a board is present. One of the techniques used by PMAC is to
write patterns to UBUS memory locations and read them back. One reason we mapped the fieldbus bytes
to the upper byte of PMAC’s memory is that this memory is not written to during PMAC’s power up test
routines since DPRAM boards are assumed 16-bit not 24-bit boards. If the fieldbus bytes were mapped to
the lower bytes, fieldbus outputs could be turned on by the test patterns written to these locations.
Another feature of the UBUS is that memory locations selected by CS16\ (chip select 16...active low)
were reserved for board identification information.
 Vendor ID (8 bits)
 Options Present (10 bits)
 Revision Number (4 bits)
 Product ID (14 bits)
This information (36 bits) is accessible directly with I-Variables added in Firmware 1.936 or later. A
summary of the PMAC Gateway ID information is in the table below.
I39 controls the values reported.
I39= I4942…I4952 reports the following
0 36 bits (Vendor ID, Options present, Rev Number, Product ID)
1 8 bits (Vendor ID)
2 10 bits (Options Present) Reported by PMAC in HEX ($)
3 4 bits (Revision Number)
4 14 bits (Product ID)
5 19 bits (Card Base Address)

Identification Information
The Vendor ID is programmed into the PMAC Gateway. The Option Number, Rev Level and Part
Number are set by jumpers on the board. The settings below are given for reference only. There is no
need to change these from the factory settings. For jumper settings, refer to each individual section.

DPRAM MEMORY MAP

Below is the memory map of relevant addresses found in the DPRAM of the gateway module. See page 3
of this module to determine whether the option ordered on the ACC-72E has a 8KByte cache or a 2KByte
cache. In order to read and write to these registers, define an M-variable that points to the upper 8 bits in
memory with an offset from the base address that is configured with SW1:
For example, if we were to look at the PMAC Flags on an ACC-72E Option 3 (DeviceNet Master) with a

PMAC and Gateway Flags

The handshaking bits for the PMAC and gateway flags reside in the X and Y word, respectively, of the
last address in DPRAM memory. “D0” refers to the first bit in the address; since the byte resides in the
upper 8 bits of PMAC’s addressing scheme, D0 would be equivalent to bit 16, D1 to bit 17, etc. These
flags give the user the ability to control the flow of data from the PMAC to the gateway:

DPRAM Memory Map 13


Acc-72E User Manual

DPRAM DATA PROCESSING

Since there are two processors attempting to access data registers in Dual-Ported Memory (PMAC and the
gateway) simultaneously, several handshaking modes can be used to guarantee data consistency. These
modes can be selected in Sycon under device settings. Not all modes are supported for every fieldbus
protocol. Consult the Sycon manual for each gateway module for handshaking capability. Should
handshaking not be necessary, collision circuitry on the gateway will in the very least guarantee
consistency within single byte boundaries. For this reason, the default configuration (No Conscience,
Uncontrolled) is recommended. Any handshaking is recommended for use only by advanced users that
have extensive knowledge of the underlying fieldbus communications protocol.

14 DPRAM Data Processing


Acc-72E User Manual

Bus Synchronous (Direct Transfer), Device Controlled

The gateway automatically starts


a data exchange cycle if it is a
master, or it receives a data
exchange cycle if it is slave.
Subsequently it complements
the bit PdAck.
PdAck 0 1
PdCom 0 0

The PMAC can then read the


new input data and write
the output data in the dual-port
memory. Then PMAC must
complement the bit PdCom.
PdAck 1 1
PdCom 0 1

The gateway starts the


next data exchange cycle.

PdAck 1
PdCom 0

This handshake is used most commonly in a slave system that must guarantee that the data from
every fieldbus cycle must be given to the PMAC.

DPRAM Data Processing 15


Acc-72E User Manual

Buffered, Device Controlled

The gateway makes cyclic


data exchanges on the bus.
After each data exchange
the gateway checks if
the dual-port memory is
available (i.e. PdCom is equal
to PdAck.)
PdAck 1
PdCom 0

If PdCom is not equal to PdAck, the user


program knows that there is new data in the
dual-port memory. PMAC can read out the
input data and write the new output data. PMAC
must then complement PdCom.

PdAck 1 1
PdCom 0 1

If there was data exchange detected, the gateway


exchanges the data between the internal buffer
and the dual-port memory. The gateway then
complements PdCom

PdAck 1 1
PdCom 1 0

The gateway cycles the data exchange again.

PdAck 1
PdCom 0

This handshake is commonly used in slave systems, where the slave gets an interrupt
with the next data exchange cycle.

16 DPRAM Data Processing


Acc-72E User Manual

No Conscience, Uncontrolled (Direct Transfer)

PMAC reads and writes


the process image, at the same time
as the gateway. The gateway does
cyclic data exchanges and after
every exchange it makes an update
of the process image.

This is the recommended method of


data transfer for most users.

This is the most common data transfer for IO devices requiring no handshake.
Attention: If two bytes belong together it is imperative that they are on the same bus cycle otherwise
this mode can't be used!

DPRAM Data Processing 17

PMAC must then complement PdCom:

PdAck 0 0 Gateway starts


PdCom 0 1 one data
exchange with
the output data from the dual-port memory and
writes the new input data in the dual-port
memory.

Gateway then complements PdAck after all


data is updated:

PdAck 0 1
PdCom 1 1

User reads new input data.

This handshake is used most commonly in a master system with synchronous IO devices.

Buffered, Host Controlled

Cyclic data exchange between internal buffer


and the gateway occur.

PdAck 0
PdCom 0

PMAC reads last input data and writes new


output data. Data exchange with the gateway
continues to cycle.

PdAck 0
PdCom 0

PMAC must then complement PdCom:

PdAck 0 0 Gateway stops


PdCom 0 1 data exchange,
puts the output
data in its internal buffer and the latest input
data in the dual-port memory.

Gateway then complements PdAck and


starts cyclic data exchange.

PdAck 0 1
PdCom 1 1

PMAC then reads input data and


writes output data.

This is the easiest handshake in master and slave systems with a guaranteed consistence of the complete
process image.

PROFIBUS
Profibus represents one of the best-known industrial FieldBus protocols from Europe. Profibus can be
used in a very wide range of applications as a multi-application communications link for industrial
devices, as well as cell-level communication. Profibus is an established standard, first introduced in 1989.
The Profibus protocol was originally developed by the committee founded by the German government.
The resulting protocol was initially adopted as DIN standard 19245 and was then adopted as a European
Common Standard EC50170. Profibus connects to a wide variety of field devices including discrete and
analog I/O, drives, robots, MMI products, pneumatic valves, barcode readers, weigh scales, transducers,
and flow measuring equipment.
 Profibus utilizes a non-powered two-wire (RS485) network.
 It can transfer a maximum of 244 bytes data per node per cycle.
 Communication rates are selectable but overall end-to-end network distance varies as indicated below:

Testing and Monitoring the PMAC Gateway for Profibus


Once the hardware has been configured, test the system to ensure that the fieldbus is working properly
and that data sent by the fieldbus Master is received by PMAC and data sent by PMAC is received by the
Master. The diagnostic LEDs and the online menu in SyCon are useful tools to determine if the system is
working.
The online menu has many useful items. First, explore the I/O monitor function. Once the PMAC
Gateway is configured, manually change the Send Process Data and see if the master receives it and
monitors the Receive Process Data from the master.
Next, ensure that Send Process Data changed by a PMAC PLC makes it to the master. If writing,
downloading and executing a PMAC PLC program similar to the one in Appendix C, and the appropriate
bytes change in the PMAC Gateway and in the Master can be seen, the Send Process Data has been
checked.
Finally, change data in the Master that becomes Receive Process Data in the PMAC Gateway, and verify
that the appropriate M-Variables in PMAC are changed to correctly reflect the values sent by the master.

Monitoring Online Diagnostic Flags from PMAC

Once communications are established to all devices in the fieldbus network, diagnostic flags build into the
gateway module can be monitored by PMAC to determine the status of the network during online
communications.

description in the Description field.
With the addition of every slave, the MAC ID is incremented, but this valve can be changed manually in
the MAC ID field.
DeviceNet Slave Configuration
The slave specific configuration is set in this window. Assign the modules and their data to addresses for
the process data image in the master device. Remember that these addresses correspond to the application
in the PC.

Assign the addresses of the module data in the process image for each module in the lower table. This is
set in the columns Type and Addr for input and output separately.
The I/O address can be entered manually or set automatically by SyCon using the Auto Addressing flag,
which must be set in the Master Settings window.
Caution:
If Watchdog Control is switched off, it is possible that the slave will not reset slave
outputs, even though the communication is broken.

Downloading the Configuration to PMAC Gateway


Use the Online - Download menu to download the configuration data to the device.
Before the download happens, SyCon will check the configuration. If any error message appears, the
configuration should be checked. Most errors are overlapping addresses which can be located by looking
at the Address Table. This can be avoided by keeping Auto Addressing enabled.
The configuration will be transmitted to the selected device and stored in static Flash memory, so that it is
available after the power is switched off and on in this device.

Otherwise, it is green. In addition, SyCon displays the Diagnostic message if the slave signals diagnostic
information. This information is displayed by clicking with the mouse at the corresponding device in
debug mode.
To activate the debug mode, select Online - Start Debug Mode. The Online - Device Diagnostic menu
activates the DP slave diagnostic. To end the Debug Mode, select Online - Stop Debug Mode.
DeviceNet Auto Network Scan
The current version of Sycon and PMAC Gateway firmware supports automatic network scan. Once the
Master is configured, choose Automatic Network Scan from the Online pull down menu. The Master
(PMAC Gateway) will poll the slave devices from the lowest MACID to the highest. Once the scan is
finished, it will display a list of devices that it found. To accept this configuration, select Automatic
Configuration from the dialog box. Typically, the chosen connection is polling so it should be changed
in the Chosen Configuration. Column before it is accepted.
Download the new configuration to the master to establish communication. Usually, this is the easiest
way to get a network up and running.

CANopen is a network concept based on the serial bus system Controller Area Network (CAN) and the
CAN Application Layer (CAL). Developed originally for passenger cars, the CAN two-wire bus system is
already in use in over one million industrial control devices, sensors and actuators. Hallmarks of the
internationally standardized bus system (ISO 11898) are its simplicity, high transmission reliability and
extremely short reaction times. Many major semiconductor manufacturers sell CAN chips, and the fact
that millions of them are used in automobiles guarantees low chip prices and long-term availability.
CANopen permits both cyclic and event-controlled communication. This makes it possible to reduce the
busload to a minimum and achieve high communication performance at relatively low baud rates.
In CANopen, timing behavior can be adapted individually to the particular tasks of the stations involved.
This means it is not essential for the entire communication system to have higher performance if it is only
required by certain participants. In addition, an automation task may be divided up among several
CANopen participants to make optimum use of the power of control devices already in the network, and
this can be increased gradually by additional participants.
CANopen allows the creation of inexpensive de-centralized control systems, distributed input/output
systems, and networked sensor/actuator systems.

 Global_bits

The bit field serves as collective display of global notifications. Notified errors
can either occur at the DEVICE itself or at the nodes. To distinguish the different
errors the variable err_node_adr contains the error location ( address). If more than
one error is determined, the error location will always show the lowest faulty bus
address.

 Variable CAN_state

This variable represents the main state of the master system. Following values are
possible:

$00: state OFFLINE


$40: state STOP
$80: state CLEAR
$C0: state OPERATE

 Variable Err_Node_adr

If either the bits Ctrl, Aclr or NData are set, this variable is set to the lowest node

 usBusEventCnt

This variable holds a counter for bus events detected by the CAN chip. It includes
warnings, bus off situations and receive queue overruns.

 usBusOffCnt

Bus off events indicate severe communication problems on the CAN bus. When the
CAN chip detects such a situation it goes to disabled state and is not involved in
bus operations anymore. To get it operative again it must be re-initialized which is
done by the firmware automatically.

CONTROLNET
ControlNet is a real-time, control-layer network providing high-speed transport of both time-critical I/O
data and messaging data, including upload/download of programming and configuration data and peer-to-
peer messaging, on a single physical media link. ControlNet’s high-speed (five Mbits/sec) control and
data capabilities enhance I/O performance and peer-to-peer communications.
The distance of a segment depends on the number of nodes, respectively on the number of taps. There is
no minimum length requirement. The maximum allowable total length of a segment is 1000 m with two
taps connected. Each additional tap decreases the maximum length of a segment by 16.3 m. From this it
follows the number of taps allowed on a segment (48 with a maximum length of 250 m). Install a
repeater if the system requires more than 48 taps per segment, or a longer segment becomes essential. For
each segment of the ControlNet system, 75 Ohm terminators are needed.
ControlNet allows multiple controllers to control I/O on the same wire. This provides an advantage over
other networks, which only allow one master controller on the wire. In addition, ControlNet allows
multicast of both inputs and peer-to-peer data, thus reducing traffic on the wire and increasing system
performance.

Overview

SyCon is a universal fieldbus configuration tool developed by Hilscher Corp., which we are
initially using to configure the PmacGate-Way. SyCon can configure the fieldbus systems like
ProfiBus, Interbus, SDS, DeviceNet, CANopen, etc. with a common tool that provides consistent
user interface for all protocols.

SyCon allows you to configure all master and slave devices using one tool. SyCon checks the
dependencies between the devices, checks for configuration conflicts and warns you of possible
errors. Some protocols support standardized files containing information about all features
and limitations of the slave device. SyCon uses these files for the configuration.

After the configuration, you can switch SyCon into a diagnostic mode. In diagnostic mode, you
can watch all status information of devices connected to the network. For example, you can
see the node list or slave diagnostic information. If a slave is not operating correctly it will be
displayed in a different color, normally red.

SyCon consists of a universal.exe - file and several specific protocol DLLs. Most customers
will use SyCon for only one bus system however SyCon can be expanded later by adding one or
more DLLs for other available protocols.

3. One of the fieldbus protocols (ProfiBus, SDS, DeviceNet, Interbus S,..)

3.0 Installation Procedure

1. Close down all application programs on your system.

2. Insert the installation disk 1 (or CD) of SyCon in your floppy or CD drive.

3. To install SyCon select the Software-install icon in the start-settings-control


panel menu or select the command Run from the start menu of Windows 95 or
Windows NT and type a:\setup.exe (a: is the letter of your floppy drive) and select
OK.

4. Follow the instructions of the installation program and answer each question with
OK or Next. The installation program will ask you for additional components
(fieldbus system and device driver) to install. Install all parts. Without installing a
fieldbus system SyCon is not able to run the configuration. The device driver is
necessary to access the PC interface card in your system. Of course you can install
these components by using their own setup programs later. Depending on the
selected components (fieldbus/device driver) insert the disk and the corresponding
setup program will be started automatically.

4.0 Configuration of the Device Driver


The program Driver Setup program configures the DPM base address and the DPM size for
the device driver (DPM is dual-ported memory).

If you have a SMS-CIF30-DPM and you have not changed the jumpers of the board, you can
use the default value in the window Driver Setup Windows NT. Otherwise, this must be done
according the selected start address of the CIF board and the type of the CIF. If you have the
SMS-CIF30-DPM then the DPM size is 2 KByte. If the board is the SMS-CIF30-PB then you
have to select 8 KByte. If you have jumpered an interrupt on the board then you have to
select the Interrupt number. The default interrupt is 7. After you have changed the settings
you must reboot your PC to activate the parameters.

5.0 Configuration ProfiBus DP with SyCon

SyCon helps you to configure your ProfiBus DP system quickly & easily.

Follow these steps:

1. First select the fieldbus system and create a new file. Select the File-New-
ProfiBus menu item. SyCon will start the configuration mode and opens
the window for the bus. Insert all the Masters that you will have on the
bus. If you do not find your Master in the list choose Unknown FMS
Master, Unknown DP Master, or Unknown Combi Master ProfiBus-DP

2. First you have to insert the DP slaves and assign them to their master.
The next step is to configure these DP slaves with the actual I/O modules,
and their parameter data. Be sure that you have selected the right
addressing mode.

3. Save your configuration. Select the board as actual device, which you
want to configure and download(s) to all the CIF devices. Connect the bus
cable, and test the communications using the I/O-Monitor for DP, and the
FMS Monitor for FMS.

4. Finally, print out the documentation of your ProfiBus system.

GSD Files

Each ProfiBus-DP manufacturer uses standard device description files to define the ProfiBus-
DP device on the network. These definitions are called GSD files. The set of device
description files (GSD file) build the device database.

All possible devices the configuration or GSD files must be in the GSD directory during the
startup of the SyCon software. If you need another GSD file during SyCon runtime you have to
copy this file with the File - Copy GSD menu item.

Note: You need GSD files only for ProfiBus-DP.

The GSD directory path is changeable. To modify it from the default to an another path use
the Settings – Path menu. All GSD files have to be present in this directory for SyCon to
recognize the device.

Bus Parameter

The bus parameter is normally the baud rate of the fieldbus network, which is determined by
the master controller. Each fieldbus has a set of different baud rate options.

In a ProfiBus-DP system, the only parameter, which is required, is the baud rate. The baud
rate of the ProfiBus is common for all bus nodes. Changing the baud rate causes all other
parameters to be re-calculated. The System Configurator checks that all configured devices
based on the information in the GSD file support the baud rate.

If the System Configurator finds at least one device in the configuration that does not support
the selected baud rate an error message appears, because this information is missing in the
device description file. The user can check the actual parameter, if he opens the Actual Bus
Parameter window with the Edit button. Some of the parameters can be changed individually.
Please note if you make any changes in the bus parameters the parameter for the Optimize
field must be changed from by SyCon to by User.

Caution: Changing the bus parameter can stop the communications

The Highest Station Address is the highest bus address up to which the master will search for
another active master station to transfer the send permission. This value should not be set
below the master address.

The field Watchdog control / TTR allows the user to enter a factor to control the watchdog
time of the slaves. If this factor is chosen to large, it is possible that the slaves could set their
outputs to Zero .

With the Auto Clear flag it is possible to select a global error flag. The Master controls the
process data transfer for the slaves with a timer. If the data transfer is not successful during
one data control time interval with activated option Auto clear modus on, then the Master
leaves the user data transfer and switches the outputs of all assigned slaves to the fail-safe
state.

GatewayDPRAM.

Startup behavior after system initialization

If Automatic release of the communication by the device is selected, the master starts with
the data transfer on the bus when initialization is finished. If Controlled release of the
communication by the application program is selected, the user has to start the data
transfer on the bus, by a defined release procedure.

Addressing mode

The addressing mode of the process data is how to interpret the addresses of the process
image. There are the possibilities Byte addresses or Word addresses. For performance
reasons the PMAC Gatewayworks internally with word structures. Therefore if you have
configured the Byte address mode, the data for the slaves modules starts on even addresses.

Storage formats (word module)

The storage format fixes the format, how the data is placed and interpreted in the process
images. For data types, the Little Endian format and Big Endian format can be selected.

Handshake of the process data

Different modes of handshaking the process data can be selected for the master. The selection
of this mode is important for the correct data exchange between the application and the device.

Hardware parameter

With this parameter you select the size of the dual-ported memory of the hardware. The
parameter will enlarge or reduce the possible value ranges for the I/O offsets.

Addressing mode

The addresses in the configuration data of the devices determine the starting points of the
corresponding data in the process image.

Byte address The process image has a byte structure and every byte has its own address.

Word address The process image has a word structure and every word has its own address.
This has nothing to do with the physical data size of the dual-ported memory, which is always
byte oriented! The following table shows how the different data types in the process image in
byte or word address mode:

Slave configuration

The slave specific configuration is done in this window. Here you have to assign the modules
and their data to addresses for the process data image in the master device. Remember that
these addresses correspond to your application in the PC.

Appendix A – Sycon Manual 77


Acc-72E User Manual

There are two types of slaves. A simple slave, which has a fixed data length, and a modular
slave, which has variable, date length and is configurable. This type of slave can be
understood as an assembly of one or more simple slaves with one bus address.

The upper table contains all available modules of the slave device. In the case of a simple slave
there is only one module, which is already copied, into the lower table automatically by SyCon.
If it is a modular slave, the user must do this with a double click on the module or selected
module or by clicking on the Append Module button. If a module has several inputs or
outputs, then it gets more lines in the configuration table. These additional lines will be
assigned with a higher index in the Idx column.

To configure the modules of the slave do the following steps:

If not already present, select all modules from the upper table and insert them in the lower
table. The sequence of the modules in the lower list is important and must correspond to the
real physical slave configuration.

Assign the addresses of the module data in the process image for each module in the lower
table. This is done in the columns Type and Addr for input and output separately.

The I/O address can be entered by the user or set automatically by SyCon using
the Auto Addressing flag, which must be set in the Master Settings window.

If the flag is active SyCon will place all I/O data offsets in physical order. This is done during
the download procedure and the assigned addresses can be checked in the Address Table.

If the addresses are entered manually the default address 0 in the field I Addr. O Addr must be
overwritten by the user. Depending on the Addressing mode in the DP Master Settings the
addresses are byte addresses or word addresses. This is described in the chapter Addressing
mode. The DP-Slaves use the Watchdog Control flag to detect communication errors of their
assigned DP master. If a DP slave recognizes an interrupted communication to his master
during a defined watchdog timer interval, when he was operational once, he resets himself and
sets his outputs into a safe zero state.

Caution: If Watchdog Control is switched off, it is


possible that the slave will not reset slave outputs, even though
the communication is broken.

If the slave device should take the parameter out of the configuration which is downloaded
from SyCon then you must select for the Configuration mode the mode Configuration by
SyCon. If the configuration is written in the dual-ported memory from the application then you
must select Configuration by application.

Handshake of the process data

With these different modes, the handshake of the process data is selected for the master. The
selection of this mode is important for the correct data exchange between the application and

Startup behavior after system initialization

If Automatic release of the communication by the device is selected, the slave is ready to
communicate with the master when started. If Controlled release of the communication by
the application program is selected, the user has to start the communication with the master.

Board Assignment

SyCon is able to configure all devices in a network. To run the online functions of such a
device you must define how SyCon can communicate with it. This is done in the menu item
Board Assignment. You have the choice between four boards, which are installed internally in
the PC and four devices, which are connected with the serial port to the PC.

SyCon looks in the registry of the device driver and displays all boards that are available
internally.

The externally connection can be checked with the buttons Check COM 1 to Com 4. SyCon
sends a request on that serial port and asked for the firmware. If there is a device connected
the firmware is displayed otherwise there will be a time-out error.

Now you can assign the configured devices to the boards and to the serial ports. If the
assignment for one device is done, it is no longer available in the select list for a further
assignment. Therefore if you want to change an assignment, you have to select No device
instead of a device, before you can get the device in the selection list for or other board or serial
port.

own address.

Param_Fault This bit is set by the slave, when the last parameter telegram has an
error, for example wrong length, wrong Ident_Number, invalid
parameter.

Invalid_Slave_Resp This bit is set by the master, when the master has received an invalid
answer from the slave.

Not_Supported This bit is set by the slave, when a function is asked to be performed
but does the slave does not support.

Ext_Diag This bit is set by the slave. If the bit is set, then there is diagnostic
information in the slave-specific diagnostic area (EXT_DIAG_DATA).

Cfg_Fault This bit is set by the slave, when the configuration data is not unequal.

Station_Not_Rdy This bit is set by the slave, when the slave is not ready for data
exchange.

Station_Non_Existent This bit is set by the master, if this slave is not reachable on the bus. If
this bit is set, the diagnostic bits holds the state of the last diagnostic
information or the initial values.

Diag.Freeze_Mode This bit is set by the slave, when he has received the freeze-control
command.

Diag.WD_ON This bit is set by the slave, when its watchdog control is active.

Diag.Stat_Diag If the slave sets this bit, the master has to collect diagnostic information
as long as this bit is active. The slave sets this bit for example when
there are no valid user data. If the bit Diag.Prm_Req and the bit
Diag.Stat_Diag are set, the bit Diag.Prm_Req has the higher priority.

Diag_Prm_Req If the slave sets this bit, a new parameterization has to be performed.
This bit is set as long as no new parameterization has been performed.
This bit is set from the slave.

Ext_Diag_Overflow If this bit is set, there are more diagnostic information as in
