Series 2: Rx Update RTU Info, single RTU
Polls data and event logs from a single RTU. An RX Update block can also issue a Sync Clock command to
the RTU. The Rx Update block works by requesting the CRC for each block and then requesting the blocks
which have changed. Only network blocks that are different are updated which minimises communication
time. Event logs that match the priority and user type are uploaded until the maximum limit is reached or until
there are no more event logs. Requires driver RXUPDxx.Dxx. Care must be taken to initiate only one Tx or
Rx Update block at a time otherwise unpredictable results may occur. The pending flag detailed below can
be used to determine when the Rx Update block has finished.
This block is also useful for copying event logs from a submaster RTU to a master RTU. The Rx Update
Single block ignores the source of the event logs in the submaster RTU and simply copies all the logs from
the submaster RTU to the master RTU.
Note: for local and hardware registers, the outstation RTU controls which of its network data blocks will be
checked or uploaded. The system parameters Update Register Blocks and Update Hardware Blocks are
configured in the outstation RTU to control this function (please see the topic Configuration - System
Parameters).
Fields are the same as for an Rx Update block for multiple RTUs except for:
Control Register: Local register (#R) or blank. A blank entry causes real-time data and event logs to be
updated, the clock to be synchronized and to not use the pending or status flags. When a local register is
specified, the channels must be configured as follows:
• Ch1: Real-time Data Flag. If this channel is set ON, real-time data will be polled from the specified RTU.
Channel 1 is NOT reset after a successful data update.
• Ch2: Event Logs Flag. If this channel is set ON, event logs will be polled from the specified RTU
according to the Event Log Control fields. Channel 2 is reset when all event logs have been retrieved
from the RTU.
• Ch3: Sync Clock Flag. If this channel is set ON, the clock of the specified RTU will be synchronized to
the local RTU's own clock. Channel 3 is reset if the RTU is synchronized successfully.
• Ch4: Pending Flag (set by Rx Update block). Indicates the pending status of the RX Update block.
Channel 4 is set ON when the block is activated and is set OFF when the block has finished.
• Ch5: Status Flag (set by Rx Update block). Indicates the success/failure status of the RX Update.
Channel 5 is written to after polling of the RTU has finished. Channel 5 is set OFF if the update is
completed successfully or is set ON if the update has failed.
