novaPro32 Routel 1 General 1 General This description describes the installation and set-up procedure of an EY3600 novaPro32 Routel installation for: EY3600 novaPro32 Version 4.0 SR1-Routel or newer (Routel with DW34) 1.
novaPro32 Routel 1 General 1.3 Introduction Remote Supervision, Routel: Remote Supervision: The PC and AS island are linked via modems. Alarms and limit violations are messaged from the island towards the PC. The activation (subscription for the spontaneous upload) of Routel addresses on the AS is on the Routel dedicated DW34 and not on the standard DW 35 (from V4.0SR1Routel!).
novaPro32 Routel 1 General 5. Remote-access message The Routel reports any access from a remote-access PC (Router mode) to the Routel to the Supervision PC. This, on the one hand, for security reasons, but also because alarms occurring during the access of the remote PC would be lost on the supervision PC (Routel memory flushed by the data reading from the remoteaccess PC).
novaPro32 Routel 1 General 1.4 Recommendations concerning modems The Routel and novaPro32 (via Windows) basically support all modems, as well as any other switched DCE devices (data communication equipment) such as ISDN terminal adaptor, GSM phones, switched radio modem, etc., as long as these devices are controlled by character strings (e.g. AT commands). The proper control strings to be configured for these devices have to be worked out from the documentation of these units.
novaPro32 Routel 2 AS set-up 2 AS set-up 2.1 Microprogram The microprograms of the Routel AS have to be functionality index ‘7’ (‘g’). 2.2 Reporting HDB upload The standard upload and memorisation of HDB blocks is fully supported. The reporting of the HDB message (25%), by which the AS triggers the reading of the HDB data by the PC, can be configured per AS and per HDB block (analogue/binary and MFA1-127/MFA 128-256) with FBD, MFA60. HDB block messaging is enabled by default.
novaPro32 Routel 2 AS set-up Open the ‘Properties’ of the block and select the ‘Inputs’ tab:- Choose ‘Killed’ to disable the messaging of the HDB block concerned:- Block1: - Block2: - Block3: - Block4: Binary addresses Analogue addresses Binary addresses Analogue addresses MFA 0-127 MFA 0-127 MFA 128-256 MFA 128-256 (For an AS with 128 MFAs, only both blocks have to be set to equal values: e.g.
novaPro32 Routel 3 Routel set-up 3 Routel set-up 3.1 u-program The u-program of the Routel, EY291 has to be of index ‘e’ (Routel islands only). The Routel requires two EPROMs. One is a standard index ‘e’ EPROM as supplied by SBA (or the file ‘501120_001e.bin’). The one located on the transformer side of the Routel has to be matched to the parameters of your project using the Routel-Para program (Æ Regarding a method without matched EPROM, please refer to Special Hints below). 3.
novaPro32 Routel 3 Routel set-up Open the ‘501120_001e.bin’ file:- The parameters displayed are the factory default parameters. The following parameters have to be set according to your project:Project ID - The ID of your project (e.g. from your BMTL export file or from the registry) AS Network ID - The ID of the AS network concerned (e.g.
novaPro32 Routel 3 Routel set-up Dial string 1 - The dial string for your modem, normally:"ATDT[phone number]<" (Where the ‘<’ character has to follow the string, it causes the Routel to send the carriage return.) (The dots indicate the available number of characters for this string) (Special characters within the phone number: ‘,’ makes the modem wait for 1 or 2 seconds, ‘w’ makes the modem wait for the dial tone before dialling. Refer to your modem manual for more information.
novaPro32 Routel 3 Routel set-up The ‘Dial Sequence’ settings determine the way the Routel commands the modem to re-dial the Supervision PC in case the latter doesn't respond (dial sequence for the non-connect case). At this moment, only ‘Sequence 1’ and the first channel is to be used, since the nP32 software does not support more than one modem for the reception of Routel calls. The default settings as above lead to the following sequence: 1.
novaPro32 Routel 3 Routel set-up Save your settings with ‘Save As...’. Enter a file name of your choice (e.g. the name of the island). Then program an EPROM (EPROM 1Mb SBA order number 0385902000) using the ‘Galep’ programmer or similar. Fit this EPROM to the power transformer side of the Routel. Special tips 1. Routel without customised EPROM It is possible to set up a Routel island without customising an EPROM.
novaPro32 Routel 3 Routel set-up 3.3 Routel mode The EYZ291 F001 novaNet Router has to be set to Routel mode and the baud rate needs be set (38400 Baud recommended):on (Switches down = On) Setting switch 1 to ‘on’ (Switches down = On ) enables the Routel mode (dialling enabled). Select the speed with the appropriate speed switch. (Setting none of the speed switches sets the speed to 9600.
novaPro32 Routel 4 Modem set-up 4 Modem set-up The following modems have been tested by SBA and are thus recommended for standard telephone connections:• 3Com/US-Robotics (e.g. 56k message modem) • Olitec (e.g. Speedcom 2000) • ZyXel (e.g. Omni 288S) This manual is based on the use of these modems, and all proper parameters for them are listed in the sections concerned. We strongly advise against using modems of internet starter kits, or so-called Internet modems.
novaPro32 Routel 4 Modem set-up 4.3 Router modem & remote access This configuration is not required for Routel operations. This configuration has to be made only if the EYZ291 is set to Router mode (Routel switch not set). In this case, the Router will not send any Init command to the modem, which means in particular, that the modem will not be able to auto-adapt to the baud rate of the Router and therefore needs to be configured manually.
novaPro32 Routel 4 Modem set-up 4. ‘Bits per second’: Here you have to set the baud rate so as to be identical to the one of the novaNet router!, then press ‘OK’. This is very important. 5. Test the connection with your modem:Type ‘at’ and press the Enter key and check whether the modem answers with ‘OK’. (If not, try ‘at&f’, probably at&f0, at&f1, depending on the modem brand, followed by the Enter key. If the modem still doesn't answer with ‘OK’, you need to find the cause of the problem.) 6.
novaPro32 Routel 4 Modem set-up 7. Typing ‘at&v’ (‘at&v0’, ‘at&v1’, 3COM: ‘ati4’, ‘ati5’) displays the current configuration and stored profiles:- 8. Now disconnect this modem from your PC and connect it to the Router.
novaPro32 Routel 5 novaPro32 set-up 5 novaPro32 set-up Since novaPro32 will be running permanently on the Supervision PC, we strongly recommend you to use WIN-NT-SP6 or WIN2000 as the operating system for this PC. The WIN98 operating system is not suitable for long-term operation. 5.
novaPro32 Routel 5 novaPro32 set-up novaNet PC - This is the PC address. It has to be set identical to the one in the Routel. Refer to Chapter 3.2. Phone Number - The phone number of the Routel island concerned. Refer to your modem manual for special commands (e.g. ‘,’ makes the modem wait for 1 or 2 seconds, ‘w’ makes the modem wait for the dial tone before continuing). Remote Supervision Mode (Routel) - Tick needs to be set to enable the Routel mode.
novaPro32 Routel 5 novaPro32 set-up Select Routel Modems This box is to specify the PC Routel modem with which the PC will receive Routel calls:- 7000991003 Q2 Sauter Systems 25
novaPro32 Routel 5 novaPro32 set-up 5.2 EP server The configuration of the EP server determines which addresses are supervised with the Routel function (which addresses are activated within the AS (DW34) for the spontaneous uploading). Clicking the ‘Result’ button within the EP server configuration will display a list of the addresses included. 5.3 HDB server Basically, there is no difference to the HDB treatment by the HDB server between the Routel and the non-Routel mode.
novaPro32 Routel 6 Operation (technical) 6 Operation (technical) (This is not an ‘Operating Instructions’ manual for end users) 6.1 Start/stop of nP32 When stopping novaPro32 for the first time, the system will ask:- Pressing ‘Yes’ will cause novaPro32 to stop without de-activating the Routel-addresses, i.e. without calling the islands. This means, in particular, that the islands will still report events by modem. The PC will not take the phone. The ‘dial sequence’ (cf. Ch. 3.
novaPro32 Routel 6 Operation (technical) 6.2 Manual connections Open the ‘Connections’ menu by clicking ‘File’, ‘Connections’, or by pressing the icon:- Connect - ‘Connect’ establishes a connection to the island selected. - This connection, since initiated from the PC, is a ‘Router’ connection. The EYZ291 will be set to Router mode. The mode will be reset to ‘Routel mode’ by the EYZ291 itself at the moment of the disconnection.
novaPro32 Routel 6 Operation (technical) 6.3 Treatment of manual addresses Open the ‘Connections’ menu by clicking ‘File’, ‘Connections’, or by pressing the icon:- Routel Connections - ‘State of the net’ displays whether the Routel addresses are activated or not. - ‘Number of connected addresses’ displays the number of Routel addresses for this island. - ‘Activate’ activates or re-activates the Routel addresses (the island is called, if not connected anyway).
novaPro32 Routel 6 Operation (technical) 6.4 HDB display Please refer to chapter 5.3 for information on the HDB server. The HDB server generally holds data up to the last HDB upload (25% message). To display HDB data for a time range (‘From’, ‘Within the last’ (up to now)), the AS island concerned therefore needs to be connected manually (cf. Ch. 6.2) before calling the HDB display. We would generally recommend you to connect the island manually before displaying HDB data.
novaPro32 Routel Important information concerning Routel functions 7 7 Important information concerning Routel functions 7.1 Useable program version Access to the Routel islands must be obtained using the following programs:NovaPro32 HWC Version 4 SR2-2 Version 2.40 Problems may occur if other versions of the programs are used.
novaPro32 Routel 7 Important information concerning Routel functions 7.2 Changes in the system groups of the EP server and HDB server groups For installations with a low number of islands, we recommend that, after each modification to the configuration of the EP server and/or the HDB server, the system be ended with a ‘cold’ stop and then re-started with a ‘cold’ start.
novaPro32 Routel Important information concerning Routel functions 7.3 7 Changes in the FBD The AS 60 module must be inserted in all FBDs of all ASs in the Routel islands if, in the AS, at least one address is being edited by the HDB server. If this module is not inserted, the inputs fKBLOC, fKBI and fKBII are set to 0 when the AS is initialised by the FBD, which may cause undesirable connections.
