    THE TI505 NIM The TI505 NIM is the TIWAY I Network Interface Module for the SIMATIC TI505 Programmable Controllers. See Chapter 3 for a specific listing of controllers supported by the TI505 NIM. The TI505 NIM provides several features which ensure maximum network signal integrity.
  • Page 17 The TI505 NIM provides redundant TIWAY I communication ports. Each of the following models supports a specific type of network communication media. The RS-232-C/423 media interface is configured as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and is used to connect the NIM to Data Communication Equipment (DCE) for operation with modems.

  • Page 18: Nim Simplified Block Diagram

    Figure 2 is a simplified block diagram of the TI505 NIM. The media interface blocks are intentionally left unlabeled because the type of media interface depends on which NIM model you are using. The blocks are described as follows. Special Function Interface Controller (SFIC) — delivers and receives P/C com- munications.

  • Page 19: Chapter 2 Network Design Considerations

    Chapter 2 Network Design Considerations TIWAY I NETWORK CONFIGURATION TIWAY I is a multi-drop communication network which consists of a main trunk cable (the “spine”) and dropline cables. The network can connect up to 254 secondaries (e.g., TI505 P/Cs) to a host computer. The TI505 NIM provides the interface to the network host, enabling the host and the P/C to communicate with each other.

  • Page 23: Rs-232-C Timing Considerations

    2.2.2 RS-232-C Timing Considerations If you use the TI505 NIM with a dedicated short-haul RF modem, the NIM has a one-sec- ond time-out between the transmission of its RS-232-C Request to Send (RTS) and the RS-232-C Clear to Send (CTS) response. This time-out value is set at one second to enable the RF device to switch from receive to transmit without losing access to the transmission media.

  • Page 24: Local Line Cable Installation

    LOCAL LINE CABLE INSTALLATION The following paragraphs describe Local Line characteristics and installation guide- lines. 2.3.1 Local Line Characteristics The TIWAY I Local Line is a physical signaling technique (baseband, differential current drive) which operates over shielded, twisted-pair cabling. The Local Line cable may be up to 25,000 feet long, depending on loading and baud rate selection.

  • Page 25: Pin Assignments For Local Line Connectors

    The interface cable should have a male, 9-pin D-type receptacle with pin assignments as shown in Table 4.

If the tap housing is not used to terminate the Local Line, the terminating resistors must be removed when the output cable is attached.

  • Page 30: Planning Considerations

    2.3.4 Planning Considerations Some major points to consider during the planning phase of a Local Line network are as follows: From the start, allow for system growth. This means making provisions for the attachment of additional computing devices by routing cables through all probable areas of future plant expansion.

  • Page 32: Cable Routing

    2.3.6 Cable Routing Cable routing should be planned as if the path between all stations on the network were free of obstructions. Next, modify the first routing to account for obstructions, then calcu- late the amount of cable needed. CAUTION All local and national electrical codes and fire codes should be observed when installing wiring.

  • Page 33: Obstructions

    In-ceiling cable networks are not always practical. In-ceiling installations can be diffi- cult and sometimes dangerous in areas without drop ceilings (or that have unusually high ceilings). Also, closed ceiling systems usually trap dust and other debris, which makes cable maintenance difficult. 2.3.6.3 Surface Duct Routing Surface ducting for network cabling is usually installed along the baseboards or is at-...

  • Page 34: Local Line Biasing

    LOCAL LINE BIASING In certain network configurations, the Local Line must be biased to raise its noise immu- nity and to prevent oscillations of receivers connected to the line. The need to apply a bias voltage to the Local Line depends on the interface configuration of your network.

  • Page 35: Networks With Only Self-Biased Devices

    2.4.2 Networks with only Self-biased Devices This configuration exists when all TIWAY I Devices on the network are self-biasing (i.e., they do not have a Bias Switch.) In this case, the position on the line of the interface de- vices does not matter. 2.4.3 Networks with a Single Switch-biased Device This configuration exists when only one TIWAY I Device on the Local Line has the Bias...

  • Page 36: Networks With Two Or More Switch-Biased Devices

    2.4.4 Networks with Two or More Switch-biased Devices This configuration exists when multiple switch-biased TIWAY I Devices are attached to the network, and they should be positioned as described in the following paragraphs. If two or more devices having the Bias Switch are attached, place one at each end of the Local Line, and turn on each Bias Switch.

  • Page 37: Terminating The Local Line

    2.4.5 Terminating the Local Line The TIWAY I Local Line is designed to operate with shielded, twisted-pair cable which has a characteristic impedance of 124 ohms. In all configurations, the Local Line must be properly terminated at both ends of the trunk to prevent an impedance mismatch which could result in signal reflections on the line.

  • Page 42: Installing The Nim

    INSTALLING THE NIM To place a NIM into your TI505 system, you have to select the NIM communication parameters, install the NIM in the TI505 I/O base, connect the communication cables to the NIM, and initialize the system for operation. The Programmable Controller (P/C) and the programming device should be in place before you install a NIM.

  • Page 43: Setting The Dipswitches

    SETTING THE DIPSWITCHES As Figure 1 illustrates, there are two blocks of dipswitches on the TI505 NIM. The block of eight switches is the NIM Network Address Selection switch. The block of ten switches is the Network Configuration Parameters switch. Note that the switches are numbered from left to right (when the switches are facing you).

  • Page 45: Network Address Selection

    3.3.1 Selecting the Network Address Each TIWAY I Network Secondary must have a unique binary network address. The range of valid addresses is 1 to 254 (0000 0001 to 1111 1110 on switches 1–8 of the Network Address Selection dipswitch). Selecting addresses 0 or 255 (0000 0000 or 1111 1111) on the Network Address Selection dipswitch will cause the NIM to initialize in a test mode, and the NIM will fail to operate properly.

  • Page 46: Network Data Rate Switch Settings

    3.3.2.1 Data Transmission Rate Network Configuration Parameter switches 1 through 4 select the data transmission rate. All devices on the network must be configured to communicate at the same data rate. The data rates corresponding to the switch settings are shown in Table 3. For synchronous operation in RS-232-C communication, the rate of data transmission is established by the modem.
  • Page 47 3.3.2.2 Synchronous / Asynchronous Selection Network Configuration Parameter switch 5 selects synchronous or asynchronous operation for modems. For synchronous modem communication, the NIM receives the transmit and receive timing signals from the modem via transmit signal timing element (DB), and receive signal timing element (DD).
  • Page 48 3.3.2.4 X.25 / HDLC Network Configuration Parameter switch 7 selects the communication protocol. The HDLC protocol is activated when the switch is closed, or positioned towards the top of the dipswitch. The X.25 protocol is only activated when this switch is set open, or positioned towards the bottom of the dipswitch.
  • Page 49 3.3.2.6 Lockout / Enable Network Configuration Parameter switch 9 enables the P/C to “lockout” the NIM during time-critical operations. This function is not needed normally. During lockout, the NIM will not communicate with the P/C. The actual mechanism is as follows: 1.

  • Page 50: Inserting The Module Into The Base

    INSERTING THE MODULE INTO THE BASE It is advisable to install the NIM in the slot adjacent to the CPU (Central Processing Unit). This provides the following advantages. Easier access to switches and connectors Better LED indicator visibility Reduced electrical noise susceptibility To avoid causing electrostatic damage to the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) components, do not touch the PCB while inserting the module into the base.

  • Page 60: Chapter 4 Nim Primitives

    Chapter 4 NIM Primitives OVERVIEW Primitives are high-level commands that allow a user to access like data types in all dif- ferent Secondaries in the same manner. For example, a host computer can access image register memory in several different models of TI P/Cs with the same command. The Primitives remove as many differences as possible between the P/Cs, so that applications programs at the Primary (host) level may treat all TIWAY I Secondaries in the same manner.

  • Page 61: Purpose

    PURPOSE Primitives serve as the command structure that a TIWAY I Primary uses to access (read or write) information in a TIWAY I Secondary. The Primitives defined in the following paragraphs serve these basic functional needs. Access and retrieve data Ascertain the status and configuration of attached devices Perform control operations on the attached device STRUCTURE AND OPERATION...

  • Page 62: Basic Primitive Structure

    Figure 1 illustrates the basic Primitive structure when HDLC operation is selected. There is a Request Format and a Response Format, as shown. The binary weight of the fields is detailed in Figure 2. All field lengths are multiples of 8 bits, which allows for octet testing of data link frames at the data link/media access control layer.

  • Page 63: Normal Operation And Exceptions

    First Transmitted Bit Least Significant Bit Most Significant Bit Figure 2 Binary Weight of the Fields 4.3.1 Normal Operation and Exceptions Normal Primitive operation consists of a request and response sequence without excep- tions. Exceptions are errors found in the interpretation or execution of a Primitive. The normal operation of a Primitive is for the initiating (Host) station to form a request Primitive and address it to a Secondary on the network.

  • Page 64: Exception When Reading

    An exception procedure is used when the addressed device finds fault with: The value of the Length field A Primitive format A data element type The execution of a Primitive If a fault is found with the Length field, Primitive format, data element type or in the execution of the Primitive, the exception reason is returned with the Exception Primi- tive, which is Primitive Code 00.

  • Page 68: Field Symbols

    4.5.1 Field Symbols The symbols used in the remainder of this section to denote the different types of Primi- tive fields are summarized in Table 3. The length of the field (in bytes) is represented by the number of characters in the field symbol.

  • Page 69: Primitive Code Field - Pp

    4.5.3 Primitive Code Field – PP The Primitive Code Field is eight bits long, which allows for 256 unique Primitives. The most significant bit of the Primitive field code designates whether extended addressing is in effect. If extended addressing is used, the data element location descriptor is a 32-bit field rather than the 16-bit field associated with non-extended addressing.

  • Page 70: Basic Data Unit - Dddd

    Data Element Location — Data element types are accessed by a location address, desig- nated by “AAAA” or “AAAA AAAA”. In the Series 505 NIM, the location descriptor is a 16-bit value (32 bits if extended addressing is used in the Primitive code field). The allow- able values for the data element location are from 1 to the maximum values shown in Table 5.

    4.9.12 Block Data Acquisition Primitive Codes 50 51 52 The Block Data Acquisition Primitives allow predefined blocks of different data types to be accessed with a single Primitive without re-defining the blocks in each transaction. The Define Block Primitive (50) specifies the random blocks. The Gather Block Primitive (51) collects the data from specific blocks.
  • Page 93 4.9.12.2 Gather Block Primitive – Code 51 The Gather Block Primitive specifies which blocks (as defined by the Define Block Primi- tive 50) will be read. The blocks are specified through a 32-bit mask (EEEEEEEE). Each bit position in the bit mask corresponds to a block that was defined with Primitive 50, Define Block.
  • Page 94 4.9.12.3 Write and Gather Block Primitive – Code 52 The Write and Gather Block Primitive specifies which blocks (as defined with Define Block Primitive 50) will be read. It also allows a user to replace any contiguous data ele- ment locations. The blocks to gather are specified through a 32-bit mask (EEEEEEEE). In the bit mask position which corresponds to a block specified in the Define Block Primi- tive, a bit value of 1 indicates that the block is to be returned.

    4.9.13 Record Data Acquisition Primitive Codes 55 56 57 The Record Data Acquisition Primitives allow repetitive collection of multiple prede- fined blocks of data. The Define Record Primitive (55) allows multiple blocks of data to be defined as a single record. The Gather Record Primitive (56) collects the data blocks for the requested records.
  • Page 97 4.9.13.1 Define Record Primitive – Code 55 The Define Record Primitive specifies up to 32 records with 32 blocks per record. The re- cords are referenced by number, ranging from 1 (hex) to 20 (hex). A record, once defined, can be re-defined. A record may be restored to the initial state of “undefined” by specify- ing the number of Data type Definitions (DD –...
  • Page 98 4.9.13.2 Gather Record Primitive – Code 56 The Gather Record Primitive specifies which records (as defined by the Define Record Primitive 55) will be read. The records are specified by record numbers from 1 (hex) to 20 (hex). The total number of bytes returned by the record(s) must not cause the response to exceed the maximum frame length.
