Ethernet Setup Using HyperTerminal

1. Attach a null modem cable (see below).

NOTE: The RJ45 to DB9 adapter and the Ethernet crossover cable are included in the
TCSEAK0100 configuration kit

2. Click Start > Run, then type hypertrm.

3. In the Name text box, type a name for the new connection (for example, ETG config), then click OK.

4. In the Connect using drop-down list box, select the computer COM port you will be using, then click OK.

5. Set the COM properties as follows: Bits per second = 19200, Data bits = 8, Parity = None, Stop bits =1, and Flow control = None.

6. Click OK.

7. Start the ETG Setup Utility:

a. Cycle power or press the reset button on the ETG.

b. While the green Power/Status LED blinks rapidly, press Enter on the computer keyboard to access

the setup utility. See Table 2 for a description of the setup options.

A B NOTE: The Power/Status LED stops blinking after 5 seconds.

RS232 Serial Port

NOTE: The ETG pinout for the RJ45 (RS232) is compliant with the EIA/TIA-561 standard.
To ensure proper connections with other Schneider Electric products, examine the wiring for each device. See the wiring instructions on the ETG100 Technical Library CD for more information,
or contact your local Schneider Electric support representative.

The RS232 port is used to configure the ETG network parameters, and also can be used for serial
communication using Modbus. The ETG RS232 port is wired as a data terminal equipment (DTE)
device and uses a standard RJ45 connector.

NOTE: An RJ45 to DB9 adapter is included in the TCSEAK0100 configuration kit (sold separately)
for use with an Ethernet crossover cable.

VIJEO LOOK V2.6 FULL UNINSTALL

The Puprose of this post is to provide information how to
perform full uninstall or how to reinstall Vijeo Look software.
Standard PC with the Vijeo Look V2.6 requirements with MS Windows XP SP2
Vijeo Look 2.6 (any package tags size)
 
It could happen that Vijeo Look software package is corrupted and must be reinstalled. To perform reinstallation you have to uninstall all software components and manually delete few files located on “C:” drive like “Vijeo Look”, “OFS” folders in the “Program Files” folder, and windows registry keys. 

Before doing uninstallation first is mandatory to backup your current license to USB Flash Disk.
Then launch Start->Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs and uninstall following components:
Vijeo Look V2.6
SA PLC USB Driver
SA MODBUS Driver
SA UNITELWAY WDM Driver
SA Driver Manager
OPC Factory Server
OFS Configuration Tool
Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 (including all language packs)
Java 2 Runtime Environment Standard Edition

The following picture could see the drivers to be uninstall

And so on....After unistallation of all packages, restart the PC.

Then delete manually following folders if still exist:

C:\Program Files\Schneider Electric\Vijeo Look

C:\Program Files\Schneider Electric\OFS

C:\Program Files\Schneider Electric\Database Manager

Launch Windows Regedit and delete following entries:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Schneider electric\Vijeo Look

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Schneider Electric\OFS

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Schneider Electric\CDOFS

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Schneider Automation SAS\OFS Configuration Tool

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Schneider Automation SAS\OPC Factory Server

Delete manually all files that fit following masks (where “?” means any character) and are located in c:\windows\ folder

164???s

169???s

Vijeo Look is fully uninstalled now.

If you would like to install Vijeo Look again, you can continue as described:

 Start the standard installation procedure.

After Vijeo Look installation you must launch “Vijeo Look” before you will start other programs (Registration Tool, OPC Factory Server,OFS Configuration Tool or others).

You can restore your license using Vijeo Look Registration Tool.

NOTE : This is for educational purpose only

This procedure describe how to uninstall Vijeo Look V2.6 from the PC.
This is not a recommendation of official Schneider Electric manuals
on how to install or uninstall Vijeo Look V2.6

The user must has knowledge on PC registry to delete the proper entries that described.

Failure or wrong entries deleted may corrupt the PC registry which could result in a PC malfunction.

TWIDO with CANopen multi turn Encoder

This example describes configuration of Twido PLC with Osicoder XCC-3510PS84CB CANopen multi-turn absolute encoder.

Hardware Any Twido controller except
TWDLC•A1•DRF

TWDNCO1M CANopen master SV2.0
Osicoder XCC-3510PS84CB Absolute
CANopen encoder
Software Twidosoft 3.5
Windows XP SP2

1. Tested configuration

2. Features

XCC-3510PS84CB in default configuration sends information about actual position on reception of synchronisation message.
Twido CANopen master doesn’t support SYNC object. Therefore it’s necessary to switch XCC-3510PS84CB to send information about position cyclically. This is done by writing a value in milliseconds to 16bit object 6200h sub0 (Cyclic timer). That makes the encoder send position value with selected period ranging from 1 to 65535ms.Writing of Cyclic timer value is done via Service Data Object (SDO). It requires a communication table to be created in internal memory of Twido and then sent using CAN_CMDx command. It’s necessary to repeat this procedure after every power cycle of Twido and/or encoder.

CONNECTING PLC WITH GSM MODEM FOR ALARM ANNOUNCEMENT

ASSOCIATION PLC WITH GSM-MODEM

SMS MISSION FOR ERRORS REPORT

How can we have remotely, when an alarm happens, the report of the error in the installation?
Simply, by sending an SMS message alarm from PLC in our mobile.

Below we describe the logic and message sending, reporting an error.

The SmsAlarm.stx program shows us how can we send SMS and find errors. In this program we are able to recognize only three errors, for example. Of course we can identify more, and that depends on the application and severity of errors (Alarms). It is in the hands of each developer to create in the PLC a database-constants, which correspond to specific error-Alarms.

Also this example is not binding, except the codes to send in GSM - MODEM to send the SMS message. Thus it can be changed depending on the application except for certain items to be analyzed.

The application has been made on a series PLC MICRO TSX37. Communication with the GSM MODEM is through the cable programming TSXPCX1031 with the trimmer in option 3. We also need an additional cable, which you must build yourself, but it is very simple.
On the side of GSM - MODEM a male connector VGA 15-pin must be used, while on the side of the PLC, to connect the cable TSXPCX1031 must be used a male serial connector 9-pin, and the connections are:

9 – pin 15 – pin

5 <--> 9

3 <--> 6

2 <--> 2

So Simple

The GSM - MODEM that we have chosen is from the company WAVECOM
The model has code order WMOD2B - M1203A. For anyone interested in more information , on the Site Wavecom.com, can find the manual of the product.

The program distinguish two PRINT_CHAR commands.

In the first command

After selecting a channel in the PLC, (ADR # 0.0.SYS - From TER) the code AT + CMGS is the command necessary for the GSM - MODEM, to send SMS, while the numbers where are between "  " is the number of mobile in which we send out the SMS. The Code $R (CR = 0D - Ascii Hex) is the Return.
The % MW120: 4 is the reference words for communication, which you can change.

NOTE: The channel selection (ADR # 0.0.SYS - From TER), the code, the phone number, and the code $R is absolutely binding and must be placed exactly as you can see them in the command.

In the second command, and after a delay of 500ms (TP = 500ms) as noted in the program

The %MB200: 20 is equivalent to %MW100: 10. In these words, placed as seen in the program, the initial commands  (the command Operate), the constants describe the current message that we want to send. That we putting in %KWs the message we want to send (from the Application Browser select Variables--> Constants --> Words). Caution should be taken, each character must be written with the corresponding HEX code from the ASCII table. Something else to pay attention, is that we must engage a specific length of characters and must in the end of each message to devote a %MW to write the code 16#1A00, which is necessary to convey the message (close this message).

Also in the Hardware Configuration of the PLC in COMMs must be chosen for the Channel 0 "Character Mode" as shown in the program.

 Care must be taken from the developer in every application the code used. It is the rensponsibility of the developer to use the code properly in his application
