PROFIBUS DP

A1.2.1

Introduction

SYMAP provides the PROFIBUS DP communication system according to the international


rules EN 50170 and 50254.
This communication system offers baud rates up to 12 Mbaud. Via the protocol all measure
and process data of SYMAP can be accessed. The structure of the protocol is modular, thus
the user can built up his own protocol profile.
A1.2.2

Parameter setting

For the adjustment of the PROFIBUS protocol, the communication parameter within the
system settings is available. (Menu: SETTING > CHANGE > SYSTEM >
COMMUNICATION):

The PROFIBUS port can be switched on through parameter [0304] (Note: Event
[0304] will be activated if the device exchanges data with the master).
Parameter [0305] sets the slave address.
The sequence of bytes (starting with low or high byte) of the register (16/32 bits) is
defined by parameter [0306].

A1.2.3

Operation

If the PROFIBUS is switched on, the COM. LED, placed at the front panel of SYMAP,
will indicate the communication status. The following conditions are possible:
LED off: PROFIBUS switched off.
LED red: PROFIBUS switched on but no connection to the master system.
LED amber: Baud rate detected from master system.
LED green blinking: data exchange status (event [0304] will be active).
On the PROFIBUS page, SYMAP provides more detailed information about PROFIBUS
process. This page is only available if the PROFIBUS port is switched on. (Menu:
DISPLAY> PROFIBUS).
A1.2.4

Data exchange
Via the PROFIBUS protocol at maximum 16 bytes output data and 244 bytes input
data can be transferred. The output data are organized in 2 modules. The input data are
organized in 30 modules.
Through the modular system, the protocol can tailor made for each user. Within the
GSD-file 32 modules are available for the protocol description.
To control the device (e.g. relay output controls the breaker), 16 communication
events are available (see module 1). These communication events are organized within
the first two bytes (0.1) in module 1, whereby each bit is one event. The event is set as
long as the corresponding bit in the protocol is set.
All bits within the control byte (2) are available only once and have to be reset before
the next control byte can be accepted.

A1.2.5

PROFIBUS DP protocol data

SYMAP provides several modules for data exchange. In help with the corresponding GSDfile, the modules can be selected for the data exchange. Tables A1.2-1 to A1.2-4 consist of the
module number, the module name and the number of bytes the module provide. Within the
tables the certain bytes will be described.
A1.2.5.1

PROFIBUS DP output data (master -> slave)

SYMAP provides 2 modules for master to slave data transfers.


If both modules are to be used, module 1 must be send first in the protocol.
Table A1.2-1 Module 1:Output data

Module 1: Output data (12 Bytes)


Byte Data (first byte: low/high depends on parameter [0306])

Use the PROFIBUS events to trigger a breaker or to drive a binary output. The events
are active as long as the corresponding bits are active.
Note: refer to the chapter 2.5 Breaker control in the Users Manual to use the
PROFIBUS events with the breaker control function.
All bits in the control byte will cause an device action on L -> H. For example to
change the operating mode do the following steps:
Set the new mode in byte 3.
Wait for 100 ms.
Set bit 0 in byte 2 (L->H).
Wait for 500 ms.
Reset bit 0 in byte 2.
The tripped bits in the ANSI protection status#x (PROFIBUS Module 3) will be
reset with PROFIBUS ACK (control byte -> bit 1), or with ACK-key or remote ACK
(binary input).

MODBUS

A1.3.1

Introduction

SYMAP offers via the RS422/RS485 communication port the MODBUS protocol in
accordance with Gould MODBUS protocol Reference guide PI-MBUS-300 Rev. B. The
protocol controls the query and response cycle which takes place between master and slave
devices. The protocol provides for one master and up to 247 slaves on a common line.
SYMAP devices operates as slave within this network and covers the function code 3 and 6
of the MODBUS protocol.
On the MODBUS page (Menu: DISPLAY > MODBUS), SYMAP provides more detailed
information about the communication status. This page is only available if parameter [0303]
protocol is switched to MODBUS (Menu: SETTING > CHANGE > SYSTEM >
COMMUNICATION).
A1.3.2

Message frame format

SYMAP accepts only the remote terminal unit (RTU) framing transmission mode which is
represented in the table A1.3-1.
Table A1.3-1 Message frame format

T1 T2 T3

address
8 bits

function code
8 bits

data
N*8 bits

error check
16 bits

T1 T2 T3

The address field immediately follows the beginning of frame and consists of 8 bits (RTU).
These bits indicate the user assigned address of the slave device that is to receive the message
sent by the attached master. The function code field tells the addressed slave what function to
perform. The data field contains information needed by slave to perform the specific function
or it contain data collected by slave in response to a query. The error check field allows the
master and slave device to check error in transmission.
Note: To ensure a good communication the master has to provide an idle time on the bus at
min. 100 ms at any baudrate. The idle time is the delay between the finished reception of a
slave query and the transmitting of a next master query:
. ->
Master sends query to one slave ->
Slave responds ->
Master waits for min. 100 ms ->
Master sends query to one slave ->
. ->

Function code 03 READ OUTPUT REGISTERS

This function allows the master system to obtain the content of output registers of the
addressed slave. The output registers contains status information and measure values of the
device. The addressing allows up to 124 register (16 bit) to be obtained at each request.
Corresponding to the MODBUS protocol the device expect the query (message length: 8
bytes) witch is shown in table A1.3-2.

Function code 06 PRESET SINGLE REGISTER

This function allows the master system to send an instruction or to change settings of the
device. Corresponding to the MODBUS protocol the device expect the query (message
length: 8 bytes) witch is shown in the table A1.3-5. Notice that only one instruction can be
send per query. The normal response of the device is to retransmit the query. The master can
send a broadcast mode (slave address = 0). In this case all slaves will perform the desired
instruction but no slave will retransmit the message.

Wiring and adjustment of communication port

Connect the receive and transmit lines according to the pin assignment of SYMAP
RS422/485 port. If more than one SYMAP has to be connected to the master system no
further RS422/485 Communication port are required. After transmission of each message
SYMAP set the communication lines into high impedance state. Thus the communication
lines (TxD-A , TxD-B , RxD-A and RxD-B) can be connected in parallel of all SYMAP
devices. The master system select the SYMAP slave with its slave address. The diagram in
the appendix shows the wiring of the RS422/485 communication port of SYMAP with the
master system.
The receive lines of the SYMAP slave with the longest distance to the master system should
be terminated with a 120 resistor. The same resistor will be required for the receive lines of
the master system.
The RS422/485 communication parameter [0300] to [0303] serve the adjustment of the
RS422/485 communication port and protocol.
Table A1.3-7 shows the adjustment possibilities for the communication.

CANBUS2

The CANBUS2 interface can be used to link the device to a monitor system or to other diesel
control systems.
A1.4.2.1

CANopen (via CANBUS2)

A1.4.2.1.1

Introduction

SYMAP offers via the CANBUS2 communication port the CANopen protocol in accordance
with the international standard:
CANopen
Application Layer and Communication Profile
Draft Standard 301, Version 4.02, 13 February 2002
CAN in Automation (CiA)
The protocol has the following general features:

CANopen is a master slave communication, and requires one master (usually the
monitor system).
SYMAP device operates only as a slave within this network.
SYMAP device will respond to service requests (SDOs: Service Data Objects) of the
master or other slave devices.
SYMAP device will transmit or receive process data (PDOs: Process Data Objects)
only, if the related PDOs are enabled by the master, and SYMAP device is in the
state operational.
Up to 127 slaves can be connected to a CANopen network, which is controlled by one
master.
The following baudrates are supported: 15.6 kBd, 25 kBd, 50 kBd, 100 kBd, 125 kBd,
250 kBd, 500 kBd and 1 MBd.
Only CAN standard frames with 11-bit identifier field are supported.
SYMAP device will respond to a service request within 2-5 ms.

A1.4.2.1.2

Parameter setting

For the adjustment of the protocol, the communication parameters within the system settings
are available. (Menu: SETTING > CHANGE > SYSTEM > COMMUNICATION):

Parameter [0314] (CANBUS2 - com.port) enables the comm. port.


Parameter [0315] (number of nodes) has no function for CANopen.
Parameter [0316] (identifier) sets the slave address. Range: 1 - 127.
Parameter [0317] (identifier size) has no function for CANopen.
Parameter [0318] (baudrate) sets the comm. speed.
Parameter [0319] (application) must be set to CANopen.

Network management (NMT)

The network management requires that one device fullfils the function of the NMT master.
This will be usually the monitor system. Through NMT services, slave devices can be
controlled by the master device.
The slaves can be initialised, started, monitored, resetted or stopped through the object which
is shown in the table A1.4-3.

The cycle time of the Heartbeat object (default: 1000 ms) can be changed through a SDO (see
next chapter).
SYMAP device will enter the state pre-operational automatically after Power-ON.
The master must place the device in the operational state to obtain the process data.
SYMAP device will transmit or receive process data (PDOs) only if the related PDOs are
enabled by the master, and the device is in the state operational.

Object Dictionary introduction

The Object Dictionary is a collection of all data items which have an influence on the
behavior of the application objects, the communication objects and the state machine of the
SYMAP device.
The Object Dictionary is accessible via the network through the service data objects (SDO).
All Object Dictionary items can be read through the SDOs, and some of them can be written,
in order to change the communication behavior of the SYMAP device.
The items are organized in unique numbers (index) from 0-FFFFh. Every item can have one
ore more subindex from 0-FFh.
Table A1.4-5 shows the items which are supported by the SYMAP device.

Process Data Objects (PDO)

The process data objects are used to transfer application data (e.g. measure/status data,
commands or instructions) between SYMAP device and the monitor system or other slave
devices. The application data are organized in one receive (RPDO) and 22 transmit (TPDO)
process data objects. Every PDO is described in the object dictionary with the communication
parameters and the mapping. These can be read via the SDOs.
The communication parameters defines the communication behavior of the PDO on the
CANBUS network (e.g. the CANBUS identifier, the cycle time). Some of these parameters
can be changed with the SDOs, in order to adjust the communication behavior.
The mapping describes the distribution of the application data over the 8 bytes of the data
field of the PDO (usually there are more than one application data transported with one PDO).
The mapping is fixed and can not be changed.
A1.4.2.1.6.1

Receive Process Data Object (RPDO)

To send commands or instructions to the SYMAP device one RPDO is defined.


The comm. parameters and the mapping are defined in the object dictionary as follows (see
table A1-4.11):

SYMAP device will accept this object only if the RPDO is marked as valid and the received
identifier matches the COB-ID (dictionary index: 1400 h, subindex: 1).
Over this RPDO two words (4 bytes) are transported to the SYMAP device.
The first word (byte 0-1) is the instruction number and the second word (byte 2-3) additional
data values. Only new instructions will cause an device reaction: the instruction will be only
executed if either the instruction nr. (byte 0-1) or the data value (byte 2-3) has changed.

Transmit Process Data Objects (TPDOs)

The SYMAP measure/status data are organized in 22 TPDOs.


The comm. parameter of the TPDOs are located in the dictionary from index 1800 h to 1815
h, and they all have the same features:
All 5 subindex are supported (in order to reach the event timer).
The state of the TPDO can be changed between valid/not valid. The TPDO will be
only send on the CANBUS net if the state is valid.
RTR is not allowed.
The COB-ID can be changed.
Transmission type is 254 (manufacturer specific), so the TPDO will be send if the
event timer (subindex 5) elapses. The transmission type can not be changed.
The inhibit time has no function on the SYMAP device.
The value of the event timer (in milliseconds) can be changed.
The mapping of the TPDOs are located in the dictionary from index 1A00 h to 1A15 h.
Table A1.4-13 summarizes the presetting of the comm. parameter and the mapping of the
TPDOs.

A1.6

IEC 60870-5-103 Protocol

A1.6.1

Introduction

SYMAP offers via the RS232/RS422/RS485 communication port the IEC 60870-5-103
protocol in accordance with the international standard:
Telecontrol equipment and systems Part 5-103:
Tranmission protocols Companion standard for the informative interface of protection
equipment; (IEC 60870-5-103: 1997)
The protocol has the following general features:

A1.6.2

Normative baudrates of 9600, 19200, 38400 and 57600 Baud.


Each byte consists of 1 Startbit, 8 Databits, 1 even Paritybit and 1 Stopbit.
The bytes can also be send without the parity bit (automatic parity recognition is
implemented in SYMAP).
Master Slave communication (unsymmetric communication).
Up to 32 Slaves can be connected to a RS422/RS485 network, which is controlled by
one master.
SYMAP device operates as a slave within this network and is sending data only on
request of the master.
The max. total size of one frame is limited to 254 bytes.
SYMAP device will respond to a master request within 15-20 ms.
Parameter setting

For the adjustment of the protocol, the communication parameters within the system settings
are available. (Menu: SETTING > CHANGE > SYSTEM > COMMUNICATION):

The physical port can be set with Parameter [0300].


Parameter [0301] sets the slave address.
Parameter [0302] sets the baudrate.
Parameter [0303] can be set to 60870-103. This parameter is not mandatory because
an automatic protocol recognition is implemented in SYMAP

Appendix 1 Communication
A1.6.3

Initialisation procedure

Before the master and the slaves steps into a cyclic data exchange, the communication must
be established. This is done by a initialisation procedure. The master must have the
information about how many slaves are connected to the network, and the communication
address (parameter [0301]) of each slave.
To start up the communication, the master executes the initialisation procedure with every
slave. Typical Initialisation cycles are decribed in the table A1.6-1.

- Cause of transmission 2 (cycle)

The initialisation procedure is finished after the 4th cycle. The described initialisation
procedure is only an example and not mandatory. The procedure is not requested from
SYMAP device and can also be skipped by the master.
In the tables A1.6-2 to A1.6-7 the frames are described in detail.

Data exchange

After the initialisation procedure, the master steps into cyclic data exchange with the slaves.
The master can poll each slave with the Request user data class 2 (see table A1.6-6).
The addressed slave will response with the Measurands II.

Measure/Status data

Measure values (e.g. A, V, kWh) or status data (e.g. Breaker positions, relay status) are not
defined in the IEC standard. For this reason the private data unit 201 Measurands III has
been defined to transmit these data. This frame contains nearly all measure/status data
SYMAP device offers.
To activate the transmission of the Measurands III the master has to send once the
following frame (see chapter A1.6.6).
