Comms Settings - ComAp IG-NT GC Reference Manual

Comms settings

Gen-set name
User-defined name, used for controller identification at remote connections. Gen-set name is max 15
characters long and has to be entered using PC software.
Hint:
The setpoint can be changed using PC SW only (e.g. InteliMonitor). Gen-set name isn't affected by
GenConfig SW.
LB/UART Log
Enables history logging of IG-IB / I-LB connection.
Force value possibility: Yes
Hint:
If communication via IG-IB is interrupted for more than 5s, it is automatically terminated. If it is established
again after this period, it is considered as a newly created connection and a new record "Terminal" is done
into history in case of LB/UART Log = ENABLED. This may cause overfilling of the history in case of some
monitoring tools, e.g. InteliSupervisor.
Contr. addr
Controller CAN bus and RS-485 identification number. Each controller in the group has to have its own
unique number.
Step: 1
Range: 1 to 32
Hint:
When opening Direct or Modem connection to the controller (using PC monitoring/control SW), the Contr.
address has to correspond to the Gen-set setting in PC SW.
RS232(1) mode
MODBUS-DIRECT / MODBUS-MDM(HW) / ECU link]
Communication protocol selection for RS232(1) line.
DIRECT: Connection to a local PC running InteliMonitor. RS232 or RS485 (with internal or
external converter) lines can be used. Set this also for IG-IB connected via RS232 line.
MODEM (HW): Analog/GSM/ISDN modem connection. Select this for standard modems with HW flow
control. If selected and no CTS signal is detected, communication may not work
correctly.
MODEM (SW): Analog/GSM/ISDN modem connection. Select this for modems without HW flow control
– controller will use SW flow control signals XOn, Xoff, so only TxD and RxD signals
need to be connected between the controller and the modem.
MODBUS-DIRECT Modbus protocol for direct connection to PLC / external SCADA terminal.
Communication speed can be selected via setpoint RS232(1)MBCSpd.
MODBUS-MDM(HW)Modbus protocol for modem (remote) connection to PLC / external SCADA terminal.
Communication speed can be selected via setpoint RS232(1)MBCSpd.
ECU-LINK Port redirected to connect the ECU with special (not J1939) interface, e.g. Cummins
Modbus.
Hint:
Detail description of Modbus protocol see in Communication guide.
RS232(2) mode
MODBUS-DIRECT / MODBUS-MDM(HW) / ECU-LINK]
Communication protocol selection for RS232(2) line.
Description is the same like for RS232(1) mode.
Available only in IS-NT and in IG-xxC versions.
