    3 INVERTER PARAMETER SETTINGS The inverter parameters listed in Table 12 are required for proper operation of the end-to-end communication system. Although there may be many other parameters that will require configuration for your specific application, it is important to understand the manner in which the following parameters will impact successful control of the inverter.

  • Page 20: Parameter Numbering And Behavior

    4 PARAMETER NUMBERING AND BEHAVIOR Register Numbers All accessible inverter parameters can be referenced by their Modbus register indices, as defined in the A1 Instruction Manual and can be conveniently referenced in the studio (section 5.6) and the embedded web server (section 6.2.3). These same register numbers are used when accessing parameters via certain Ethernet protocols.

  • Page 22: Scanned Parameters

    Scanned Parameters The interface card provides network access to the specified list of parameters contained in the param.xml file located in the “WEB” folder of the interface card’s file system. These parameters are constantly being read and/or written (as applicable), and their current values are therefore mirrored in the interface card’s internal memory.

  • Page 23: Output Frequency Monitor (01.01)

    4.3.3 Output frequency monitor (01.01) Parameter 01.01 (register 258) is the present output frequency. The output frequency is represented in units of 0.01Hz. For example, if the inverter is running at 60.00Hz, the value read is (60.00Hz / 0.01Hz) = 6000 (decimal) or 0x1770 (hexadecimal).

  • Page 24: Adt Fieldbus Option Configuration Studio

    5 ADT FIELDBUS OPTION CONFIGURATION STUDIO 5.1 Overview The interface card is discovered, configured and updated by the ADT Fieldbus Option Configuration Studio PC application (refer to Figure 2). The studio must be installed prior to connecting an interface card to the computer in order to ensure that the appropriate USB drivers are installed. The studio requires a USB connection for reading/writing a configuration and updating the firmware.

  • Page 28: Internal Logic Settings

    5.4 Internal Logic Settings 5.4.1 Fail-safe Values 5.4.1.1 Overview The card can be configured to perform a specific set of actions when network communications are lost (timeout event). This allows each inverter parameter to have its own unique “fail-safe” condition in the event of network interruption.

  • Page 29: Discovery Over Ethernet

    Figure 4: Timeout Object Settings The example is complete. Discovery over Ethernet Depending on the currently-enabled driver, the Configuration Studio will automatically discover the device on the Ethernet network, regardless of whether or not the card’s network settings are compatible with the subnet upon which they reside.

  • Page 30: Backup And Restore Parameters

    A parameter is accessible and actively scanned (read from and written to the inverter) only if its corresponding checkbox is enabled. Likewise, a parameter is inaccessible if its checkbox is disabled. Parameters that are accessed more frequently or require a faster update rate should be set to high priority.

  • Page 31: Restore Factory Settings

    Figure 9: Restore Parameters Restore Factory Settings The interface card (connected via USB) can be restored to the factory settings. Note that the filesystem will be reformatted, which will destroy all custom modifications and configurations. Please backup the configuration before executing this feature. The factory settings can be restored by: Right-clicking on the device in the Project panel and choosing Restore Factory Settings.

  • Page 32: Embedded Web Server

    6 EMBEDDED WEB SERVER Overview The interface contains an embedded web server (also known as an HTTP server), which allows users to access the inverter’s internal data in a graphical manner with web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. In this way, the inverter can be monitored and controlled from across the room or from across the globe.

  • Page 35: Dashboard Tab

    Dashboard Tab The Dashboard Tab provides access to a virtual keypad, as well as a variety of gauges, meters and graphs that can be configured to provide an at-a-glance graphical overview of critical application variables in real-time. A total of 10 gauge windows are available (four at a time), and each gauge window can be configured to display any scanned parameter’s value via one of six different gauge types.
  • Page 36 Units: A text entry box in which the user can enter an engineering units string comprised of up to 8 characters. This units string will be appended to all locations in the gauge window that display the designated parameter’s current value. Parameter: The designated parameter whose value is to be reflected on the gauge.
  • Page 37 Meter: Refer to Figure 20. This type of meter implements a common panel meter-type display format. The units string is shown on the face of the meter. All raw parameter values are interpreted as positive numbers (i.e. 0...0xFFFF equates to 0...65535 Figure 20: Meter Pos/Neg Meter: Refer to Figure 21.

  • Page 38: Submitting Changes

    At times, it may be convenient to zoom in on a particular gauge or meter in order to more clearly see the indicator, or to fill the computer screen with a particular gauge’s image. This can be easily accomplished with the web browser’s Flash Player plug-in by right- clicking on the gauge and selecting the desired zoom level (refer to Figure 24).

  • Page 39: Customizing The Embedded Web Server

    Customizing the Embedded Web Server 6.4.1 Customization Overview It is possible for end-users to customize the embedded web server in order to create their own application-specific or corporate “look and feel”. Knowledge of authoring dynamic web content is required. Using windows explorer, it is possible to load customized web server content into the “WEB” folder on the interface card’s file system (refer to section 7.2).

  • Page 42: File System

    7 FILE SYSTEM Overview The interface card’s on-board file system is used by the application firmware. Currently, the application firmware’s main use of the file system is to store XML-encoded configuration files and the embedded web server. The studio must be used to manage the configuration via USB or FTP. Do not manually access the configuration files unless instructed by technical support.

  • Page 43: Ftp With Windows Explorer

    Figure 30: USB File Access via Windows Explorer FTP with Windows Explorer To use FTP with Microsoft Windows Explorer, first open either “Windows Explorer” or “My Computer”. Please note that the indicated procedure, prompts and capabilities outlined here can vary depending on such factors as the installed operating system, firewalls and service packs.
  • Page 44 Navigate to the card’s file system (see section 7.2 or 7.3). Backup the “WEB” folder if desired by copying it to the local computer. Delete the “WEB” folder from the card’s file system. Copy the new “WEB” folder to the card’s file system. Although it is not typical, if your param.xml file was specially modified (for a custom application, for example), it may be necessary to re-apply those modifications.

  • Page 45: Firmware

    8 Firmware Overview The interface card’s embedded firmware can be updated in the field. Firmware updates may be released for a variety of reasons, such as custom firmware implementations, firmware improvements and added functionality as a result of user requests. Additionally, it may be necessary to load different firmware onto the unit in order to support various protocols.

  • Page 46: Protocol-Specific Information

    9 PROTOCOL-SPECIFIC INFORMATION This section will discuss topics that are specific to each of the supported protocols. Modbus/TCP 9.1.1 Overview The interface card supports Schneider Electric’s Modbus/TCP protocol, release 1.0. The interface is conformance class 0 and partial class 1 and class 2 compliant, and allows up to 8 simultaneous Modbus/TCP client connections (sockets).
