    Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Information for the machine manufacturer Information for the machine manufacturer Introduction The UNIGATE module does not constitute a machine as defined by the EU "Machinery“ Directive. Consequently, the module does not have a Declaration of Conformity in relation to the EU Machinery Directive.
  • Page 10: Introduction

    Introduction Deutschmann Automation GmbH & CO. KG Introduction The module UNIGATE SC232/SC485-LONWorks or the module SC232/485-LONWorks S serves to adapt a serial port to the LON-bus. In this application, it functions as Gateway. It can be operated at any LON-bus with FTT-10A.
  • Page 11: General Facts On Unigate Lonworks

    Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG General facts on UNIGATE LONWorks General facts on UNIGATE LONWorks The UNIGATE LONWorks module communicates according to the LONTalk record. That means that it can communicate with all LONWorks nodes which correspond to this record. For further information on LONWorks technology see www.echelon.com and www.lonmark.org.

    General facts on UNIGATE LONWorks Deutschmann Automation GmbH & CO. KG 4.2.1 Implementing the network variables into the UNIGATE-LONWorks A LONWorks-node is application-specific - which means that it is impossible to have one univer- sal group of network variables for all kinds of different applications. For that reason the UNI- GATE-LON has to be pre-configured with a fixed group of network variables, that might be required for a certain kind of application.

    Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Operation modes of the Gateway Operation modes of the Gateway Configuration mode (config mode) The configuration mode serves to configure the Gateway. Adjustments at the Gateway’s configu- ration are only possible in this mode. The Gateway will be starting in this mode in case both switches S4 as well as S5 are set on position "F"...
  • Page 16: Test Mode

    Operation modes of the Gateway Deutschmann Automation GmbH & CO. KG Test mode Setting of the test mode The test mode is set by bringing the switches S4 and S5 in position "E". Beyond it the interface switch has to be set on "232". All other switches will not be taken into consideration for the set- ting of the test mode.
  • Page 17: Rs-Interface

    Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG RS-interface RS-interface RS-interface at the UNIGATE SC On principle the hardware cannot be distinguished from the standard Gateway. In addition to the regular hardware, a special hardware version is available, which however, is only required for the generation of a script.
  • Page 18: Mode Of Operation Of The System

    Communication can be split into seven layers, layer 1 to layer 7, in accordance with the ISO/OSI-model. The DEUTSCHMANN AUTOMATION LONWorks-Gateways convert all layers in accordance with the LONTalk-protocol. Layer 7 is forwarded transparently on the standard Gateways. How- ever, customized adaptations are also possible here (e. g. adaptations to existing profiles of the fieldbus systems).

    Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Generating a Script - for UNIGATE SC Generating a Script - for UNIGATE SC What is a script? A script is a sequence of commands, that are executed in that exact order. Because of the fact that also mechanisms are given that control the program flow in the script it is also possible to assemble more complex processes from these simple commands.
  • Page 20: The Use Of The Protocol Developer

    Generating a Script - for UNIGATE SC Deutschmann Automation GmbH & CO. KG The use of the Protocol Developer The Protocol Developer is a tool for an easy generation of a script for our script Gateways. Its operation is exactly aimed at this use. After starting the program the script that was loaded the last time is loaded again, provided that it is not the first start.
