  • Page 3: Introduction

    Configuration and operation of the device is detailed below. Product Overview EGW1-MB-HT module is a device used to connect any instrument with HART communication to one or more Modbus Masters, Modbus TCP or Modbus Serial (RTU / ASCII).

    N° 1 and negative power supply to terminal No. 2 as shown in the following figure: Serial Port Wirings EGW1-MB-HT has two serial ports; one of them is RS232 (Port A), used as a Modbus slave and as a configuration port through the serial (Appendix A), and other one RS485 (Port B) used as Modbus Slave.
  • Page 6: Hart Ports

    2.3. HART Ports EGW1-MB-HT three HART ports: HTa, HTb and HTc. All three ports share the HGND terminal to close the loop. One or more HART instruments can be connected to each port. To connect two or more instruments, they must be configured in MULTIDROP mode and denote a different HART address to each one.

    The rest of the configuration is done from the configuration web page of the device. In case you do not have a DHCP server, the Exemys Device Locator will find the device with IP address 0.0.0.0, as shown in the figure below.
  • Page 11: Configuration Web Page

    Configuration web page Once the EGW1-MB-HT has a valid IP address, you can access the web page to configure the other parameters (If your web browser is configured to search for a proxy server, disable this option) Type the EGW1-MB-HT IP address in the address field of your browser or from the Exemys Device Locator, press the Configure button.
  • Page 12: Modbus Configuration

    Modbus Configuration has an internal Modbus slave containing the values of all HART devices configured. EGW1-MB-HT This slave can be accessed by multiple means of communication: Ethernet (Modbus TCP), RS232 and RS485 (Modbus RTU or ASCII) Modbus TCP The only possible configuration is to define the connection port of the Modbus TCP slave. The TCP...

    Another characteristic is to define the behavior in case of failure, if the connected device has a malfunction, we can determine in the values of the Modbus map a behavior that is defined in 3 options: Keep the last value read, show NaN or a predefined value that is useful. HART Configuration Basic Configuration We can define the number of retries on the HART ports.
  • Page 14: Web Monitoring

    Password The web page and the configuration by Exemys Device Locator can be protected with a password. This password can also be set from the Exemys Console (see Appendix A). It only admits alphanumeric characters. The user to enter when asked is "admin".

Command Description NETWORK: Change the basic parameters of the network Ip, netmask, Example: NETWORK:192.168.0.212,255.255.255.0,192.168.0.200 gateway Change the configuration password. PASSWORD: password Password must have a maximum of 10 characters or empty to delete it. LIST Request the current device configuration.

    B. IP ADDRESS USING ARP PROTOCOL If for some reason you cannot set an IP address using the Exemys Device Locator, you can use the method described below. This method is complex and is only recommended as an alternative method.
  • Page 23 3. On command prompt, request a PING to the device IP address (The -t option will cause the command to be sent continuously) ping 192.168.0.213 -t 4. Wait for a few seconds until the PINGs start responding Once the IP address has been set, enter the Configuration web page to set the other parameters. Rev.
