    Introduction Overview This document contains information about installation, settings, and operation of the TGW-100 TETRA Gateway. This includes practical guidance relating to antenna selection and installation, operating range, extension modules, software support, etc. Safety Precautions This radio equipment should not be used in life support systems or in safety systems without our prior written permission.
  • Page 5: Functions And Features

    (working on any infrastructure which allows the connection of IP based equipment to the TETRA switch). The main function of the TGW-100 is to connect serial based equipment to the TETRA network with a direct IP connection to the TETRA switch. This will save the air interface link on the master side, where normally the data to all outstations will be routed through.
  • Page 6: Software Options

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TGW-100/TGW-100R Software Options Basically the TGW-100 can be used to connect serial equipment to any TETRA infrastructure if the data transmission is done by packet data (IP based) in the TETRA network. For a SDS based data transmission, the protocol to send and receive SDS and Status messages is proprietary for each infrastructure manufacturer as there is no standardized interface.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TGW-100/TGW-100R Connections and Hardware Installation TGW-100R: Rack version 2.1.1 Basic information The TGW-100R (Tetra Gate Way) converts serial communication protocols to TETRA IP-Data and/or to TETRA SDS Messages. The device has two serial ports for interfacing to a SCADA Server or NMS Server and two IP (Ethernet) Ports. The TGW- 100R has an embedded Web-Server and can be configured easily using a standard WEB browser on a Windows PC or MAC device.
  • Page 9 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TGW-100/TGW-100R 2.1.3 Mechanical Details The TGW-100R is enclosed in a black 19" rack mount enclosure with 3 height units. The main rack has 2 independent power supplies with separated IEC power connectors on the back. Cables with a European power plug are delivered with the rack.
  • Page 10: Power Supply Inputs

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TGW-100/TGW-100R 2.1.5 Power supply inputs The power inputs of the TGW-100R enclosure are located at the back. There is one IEC power input plug for each power supply, equipped with an on-off switch and two fuses (2A medium speed).

    The main serial interface ("COM") uses a standard 9-pin D-sub connector, while the secondary serial interface ("AUX") uses a standard RJ-11 socket. On the lower side of the housing an RJ-45 connector for the Ethernet port allows the TGW-100 to be hard- wire networked with the TETRA infrastructure.

    Electrical Connections 2.3.1 Serial Interfaces The TGW-100 has two serial data interfaces. The primary interface (COM) can be either RS-232 or user-selectable RS-422/485. The AUX interface can be RS-232 or RS-485 (only). The following parameters are user adjustable: baud rate in the range 300 - 57600 bps, data word length 7 or 8 bits, odd / even / no parity, and 1 or 2 stop bits.

    2.3.2 Secondary Serial Interface (AUX Interface) on TGW-100 DIN-Rail On the TGW-100 DIN-Rail-version, the AUX interface socket is located on the lower side of the unit. This interface allows the implementation of special applications, e.g., switching of the data-flow through this interface by a command, or feeding data from a predefined ISSI to this port rather that to COM.

  • Page 27: Data Communication Over Tetra Networks

    TGW-100/TGW-100R Data Communication over TETRA Networks The TGW-100 can transfer data between any of its wired data interfaces (serial and Ethernet ports) on one side, and the TETRA infrastructure on the other. The TGW-100 can handle any of the common industrial automation and instrumentation protocols (MODBUS, MODBUS/TIP, IEC-60870-5-101, IEC-60870-5-104, PakBus, DNP3 etc.…), custom protocols, and configuration data.
  • Page 28 In contrast to SDS based transmission, there is no need of a special support of the used infrastructure by the TGW-100, as IP packets are standardized and no proprietary protocol is needed. V2.71 - Page 28 of 59...
  • Page 29: Data Communication By Sds

    Control Channel (MCCH). Therefore no additional timeslots or RF-Carriers are required for data communication. The TGW-100 supports a maximum SDS length of 2047 bits (254 bytes) in accordance with the ETSI specification. However, since not all TETRA infrastructures support this length, users can set a lower maximum length for SDS data blocks.
  • Page 30: Selection Of The Tetra Infrastructure Manufacturer

    As the use of SDS for data transmission is depending on the implementation of the used infrastructure in the TGW-100, the infrastructure manufacturer must be selected in the TGW-100 for the use of SDS based transmission. This selection is done in "TETRA  Gateway" selection: Some infrastructure manufacturers may be subject to a license for the TGW-100, so not all options may be available for activation.
  • Page 31: Sds Services For Etelm Infrastructures

    In TETRA  Etelm Gateway all needed parameters can be configured:  ISSI: The ISSI of the TGW-100. SDS data from the outstations needs to be sent to this ISSI to be received by the TGW-100. Each TGW-100 needs a different, unique ISSI.

    You can run multiple instances of the program on the same machine, each interfacing one TGW-100. The application will open a TCP port to wait for a connection of the TGW-100. This port must be specified, also one port can only be used by one application on a PC.

  • Page 40: Use Of The Tgw-100 As Master Gateway

    Protocol Configuration When a data block is received at the serial interface of the TGW-100, it waits for the complete data block to be received. The data block end criterion is that no further data byte is received after a lapse of a user-programmed time (default: 10 milliseconds). The protocol-dependent logical address of the destination terminal equipment is extracted from the data received via the serial interface.
  • Page 41 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TGW-100/TGW-100R If multiple-address routing is not possible or desired, then the TGW-100 can be configured to use a single ISSI or IP, to which all transmitted data is addressed. The slave modems would be part of a group: all modems of this group receive the same data.

  • Page 48: Protocols

    The 3964R often is used in the „Siemens World“, connecting PLC’s to PLS’s or PLS’s to SCADA systems. That “Layer One” protocol is fully supported by the TGW-100. If possible, the priority settings of the device connected to the TGW-100 should be set to “low priority”.
  • Page 49: Serial Protocols (Rs-232 Or Rs-485/Rs-422)

    When setting the TGW as a master unit, it is useful to know what communication protocol is used. Regarding that, the TGW-100 knows, where inside the data stream the address byte(s) is (are) located. With that knowledge, the TGW extracts this “logical address byte”...

    ".pch" is the keyfile to activate the loaded firmware. To perform the update, the ".pfw" file must be sent first to the TGW-100. Unless the ".pch" file is sent to the TGW-100, the device will just store the new firmware file.
  • Page 54: Connecting The Tgw-100

    Transfer the .pfw file to the device, using the command tftp –i 192.168.0.199 PUT filename.pfw The IP here is the default IP of the TGW-100, if this IP is changed you have to give the correct IP address instead. Also "filename.pfw" must be replaced by the real firmware file name.
  • Page 55 The .pch file must always match to the corresponding firmware. Otherwise an error message will be displayed and the update operation will not be started: The firmware for TGW-100 and TGW-100R is different! It will not be possible to update a TGW-100 DIN-Rail with a TGW-100R firmware and vice versa!
