About this Guide

This guide provides configuration details for the: Modbus: A059, Data Collection Application (DCA). It is written for system engineers responsible for the configuration of the Modbus DCA.
!!WARNING:
It is extremely important to be accurate when modifying any of the configuration tables. An error in configuration can cause problems at runtime that are very difficult to diagnose.
How to Use this Guide
Chapter one lists the configuration tables for the tables that you must configure for the application. Field configuration details for specific tables are found in following chapters. The final chapter is a reference guide for the various error messages produced by the application. This document makes no attempt to explain how the configuration process operates; it is limited to describing the format and content of the DCA configuration only.

Overview
The MODBUS DCA provides an interface to Sub-Remote Units (SRUs) using the MODBUS communication protocol. It is designed to communicate with SRUs via the MODBUS protocol and receives data from the SRUs by polling for data in a master-slave relationship. The application is installed in a GE Power Systems RTU that will function as a data concentrator for one or more Sub-Remote Units (SRUs). After the system is installed, the RTU can function as a sub-master within a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, which controls multiple SRUs. Figure 1 represents a complete system overview of how the DCA interfaces with the WESDAC Interface Node (WIN) in a typical RTU.

Chapter 2: Main Application Table (A059MAIN)

2.1 Main Application Table (A059MAIN)
This table is used to define global settings for the entire MODBUS DCA. These parameters pertain to all channels and SRUs connected within the system. The Main Application configuration must contain a single record.
Name DCA Index Range Indexes CFG_DCA Description The indexed CFG_DCA table record must contain the WESDAC database point counts for this application. The CFG_DCA table configuration is described in the WIN for the MODBUS DCA chapter. When using Config Pro, the DCA Index is automatically configured and so may not be visible.

Chapter 3: Port Table (A059COM)

3.1 Port Table (A059COM)
This table contains the relevant configuration information for communication port setup. Each record in the Port table defines the communication parameters for a single communication port. NOTE: Only one communication port is allowed to own any specific SRU. SRUs cannot be shared by two communication ports. Table 3 Port Configuration Table Parameters
Name Port Baud Rate Parity Range Any valid communication port (hardware dependent) 110, 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19.2K, 38.4K None Odd Even One (1) Two (2) RTU (0) ASCII (1) 0 - 65535 Description The ASCII descriptor for the communication port to use. For example, for the D20 valid communication ports are COM1" through COM7". The transmit and receive data rates for serial communications. If an unknown baud rate is specified, 1200 is used. The type of parity checking used. If an unknown parity method is specified, no parity is used. The number of stop bits, 1 or 2. If an invalid number is specified, the system uses one stop bit. The mode of transmission the communication line uses. If an invalid transmission mode is specified, RTU mode is used. The carrier pre-transmission delay, in milliseconds. This indicates how long the request-to-send (RTS) line will be brought high, i.e., into the mark condition, before transmission of characters begins. A typical RTS On value would be 15 ms.

Description The post-transmission delay, in milliseconds. This indicates how long the RTS line will be held high after the last character of a message is sent, i.e., before returning to space condition. Typically RTS Off Times are set to 3 character times. Refer to Table 4 for character times. The message time-out, in milliseconds. This indicates the maximum amount of time to wait for a complete response after a message is sent. A typical value would be 512 character times. The character-to-character time-out, in milliseconds. This indicates the maximum amount of time to wait between characters of a message. A typical value would be 3 character times. The time, in milliseconds, from when DCD is TRUE until the receiver is enabled. This parameter is not used by the MODBUS DCA. The number of records the communication port uses from the A059SRU table. The number of SRUs plus the SRU offset must be less than the total number of records defined in A059SRU. This range of SRU configuration records specifies all the SRUs attached to the communication port. The offset into the A059SRU configuration table for this communication port. It specifies the first SRU that will communicate on this port. The offset must be less than the total number of records defined in A059SRU.

Appendix A: Error Messages

A.1 Error Messages: Cause, Effect and Remedy
During startup, the MODBUS DCA checks its configuration tables and logs a message to the WESMAINT Error Log if it finds an error. Also during startup, the MODBUS DCA attempts to spawn a number of processes. If a problem is encountered, an error message is logged. This section contains a description of all these errors as well as others, which may occur during startup. Expressions in angular brackets like "<xx>", are filled with the appropriate values by the MODBUS DCA. Messages logged to the WESMAINT Error Log by the MODBUS DCA will be prefixed with a process name. This name will be either: A059: or, A059-<x>-<yy>: where, x = c - for communication process e - for event process s - for scan process yy = process instance

If this occurs, the DCA will set the status code returned with the request to the appropriate error code, and negatively acknowledge (NACK) the control request. This section describes the possible status codes returned. Illegal Point Number (0x0003) There is no function associated with this output point. Refer Chapter 9: WIN for the MODBUS DCA for more information on the number of digital output or analog output points required by the DCA and each point's associated functionality. The binary output point selected does not support the requested control type. The control/setpoint was not attempted because the selected binary output or analog output point is currently off-line.
