1.3. Cabling 1.3.1 The network The MDS 2000 is based on a network to vehicle the different information. The use of a preconised cable and the correct architecture are very important to avoid information conflicts and bad communication between the different components of your installations.
Cabling Page 14/44 You can see that all the different components of the installation are placed one after the other and that the architecture of the network is "in line" opposite to the schema at the next page, the network "in star" must be avoided.

Cabling Page 15/44 On each PSU, the connector shows: L (Live) – (Earth) – N (Neutral): 220 VAC input (Earth) – 0V (-) – 18 VDC (+): 24 VDC output On each I/O unit, a connector shows you: L (+) – E (Earth) – N (-): 24 VDC input.
Cabling Page 16/44 1.3.3 The terminal links The terminal cable corresponds to a star's branch of maximum 3 meters. The terminal cable is: Type 2 twisted pair shielded by pair (Belden 9723 or equivalent) This cable contains the 24 VDC power (+ & -), the network (CAN H, CAN L) and shield/earth.
These inputs are for the connection of a level switch (N.O.) for the waste oil high level detection. When the switch is activated, it sends a signal to the system and the MDS 2000 will print an alert message. LM_MDS2000_BA_02_0810...
1.4. Network 1.4.1 Installation procedure The MDS 2000 is a network system we can dissociate in 3 levels: Level 1: Maximum 8 hoses without PC - 1 I/O control unit controlling 1 to 8 solenoids and recording the pulses from 1 to 8 pulsers (1 by hose).
Network Page 19/44 Level 3: Maximum 64 hoses with PC An optional interface is available providing access from a PC to the Can Bus. A complete management software has been developed for a convivial use of the system from the PC. - A computer PC type - I/O control units (maximum 8) controlling maximum 64 solenoids (8 by I/O) and recording the pulses from maximum...
Network Page 20/44 The following operations must be executed depending on the different installation configurations. We recommend to structure the dialog of the network before connecting the pulse transmitters and the solenoids to the I/Os. 1.4.4 Level 1 Installation with 1 I/O unit, maximum 8 keypads and without PC. - All the I/O units are delivered with the ID Nr.
Network Page 21/44 1.4.5 Level 2 Installation with multi (2-8) I/O, maximum 8 keypads without PC - All the I/O units are delivered with the ID Nr. 0. A different address (ID) must be given to each I/O unit. - Regarding the address of the keypad (ID), see procedure to change the address of the keypad (ID).
Network Page 22/44 The I/O address ID Nr. is stored in a permanent memory which is read only when the system is powered on. This is the reason why it is requested to power off and back on (or unplug and replug the power connector) the system after a modification of the address.
Troubleshooting Page 23/44 1.5.1 Communication problems The display of the #.++ VERSION n° keypad shows: I.D.: x Date of version and does not Enter PIN No. switch to the prompt: - - - - - The network cable is wrong. - You have a "Star"...
Troubleshooting Page 24/44 - The CAN L or CAN H wires are interrupted, non or badly connected. - CAN L and CAN H are inverted. - No power 24 VDC at the I/O unit. - Not enough power (< 9 VDC) at the I/O unit or at the keypad. - Check the fuses on the I/O card.
Troubleshooting Page 25/44 - Exchange the pulser. - You are in FLT FLT FLT FLT or OK OK OK OK mode (Test in system menu): This test is only valid for quadrature pulsers. You have the possibility to test a maximum of 4 quadrature pulsers connected on the I/O unit.

2.2. PC card upgrade 2.2.1 Introduction The MDS 2000 's PC card upgrade allows you to control your oil monitoring system MDS 2000 from a PC (IBM compatible). This offers the possibility to use the network's capabilities to configure the whole system, to dispense oil and to visualize all reports from the PC.
Operating system: Microsoft Windows Version 3.11 Serial mouse 1 empty 8-bit slot 2.2.5 MDS 2000 requirements Check that your MDS 2000 system has at least the following system configuration before installing the PC card upgrade: Eprom Version #6.02 on I/O Eprom Version #3.05 on keypad 2.2.6 PC card hardware installation...
4. Insert card into any empty 8-bit slot (do not manipulate the card without antistatic wrist strap). 5. Replace cover on PC 6. Connect the MDS 2000's PC card onto the CAN bus of the MDS 2000 network. The connection must be done through a serial connection – DB 9 Male.
