Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Information for the machine manufacturer Information for the machine manufacturer Introduction The UNIGATE Fast Ethernet 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.
Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Introduction The UNIGATE SC232/485-Fast Ethernet module serves to adapt a serial port to an Ethernet with TCP/IP-protocol. In this application it functions as a gateway. It can be operated at any process- ing system with TCP/IP-protocol and UDP-protocol.

Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG RS-interface RS-interface RS-interface at the UNIGATE SC-Fast Ethernet 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.
Operation modes of the gateway Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG 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"...
Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Operation modes of the gateway Mode of operation of the test mode After the restart in the test mode the gateway will be sending the values 0-15 in hexadecimal rep- resentation ("0".."F") in ASCII-coding with the current settings for the Baud rate, Parity, Start-, Data-, and Stopbits on the serial side every second.
Communication can be split into seven layers, Layer 1 to Layer 7, in accordance with the ISO/OSI Model. The DEUTSCHMANN AUTOMATION gateways convert Layers 1 and 2 of the customized bus system (RS485 / RS232) to the corresponding fieldbus system. Layers 3 and 4 are covered by the UDP/IP-protocol, TCP/IP-protocol, Layer 5 and 6 are blank, and Layer 7 is forwarded trans- parently on the standard gateways.
Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Generating a script - only for UNIGATE SC-Fast Ethernet Generating a script - only for UNIGATE SC-Fast Ethernet 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.
Generating a script - only for UNIGATE SC-Fast Ethernet Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Further settings at the UNIGATE SC-Fast Ethernet Most devices require no further adjustments, except for those made in the script itself. However, there are also exceptions to it. These settings are made by means of the software WINGATE. If you know our UNIGATE-series, you are already familiar with the proceeding with it.
Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Generating a script - only for UNIGATE SC-Fast Ethernet Error = (abs(9615.38 - 9600) / 9600) * 100 = 0.16% In practise errors below 2% can be tolerated!

Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Hardware ports, switches and LEDs 8.5.3 Slide switch (RS485/RS422 termination) If the gateway is operated as the first or last physical device in the RS485 bus, there must be a bus termination at this gateway. In order to do this, either a bus terminating resistor in the con- nector or the resistor (150) integrated in the gateway must be activated.

Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Representation of the data in Ethernet-TCP/IP 11 Representation of the data in Ethernet-TCP/IP Each Ethernet-Client processor with TCP/IP network-protocol in a 10/100 Mbaud Ethernet can exchange data with the gateway. 11.1 Network-addresses, network-connections After switching on, the gateway is waiting for data communication with a network-participant. In this case the gateway is always prepared to react to ICMP messages (e.
Representation of the data in Ethernet-TCP/IP Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Now this additional function can be adjusted at the Fast Ethernet gateway so that the Modbus data can be made available as TCP-Modbus data packet on the Ethernet side.
Deutschmann Automation GmbH & Co. KG Representation of the data in Ethernet-TCP/IP Warning: The script- and conig-file will be deleted also. Subdirectories are not intended. For that reason you cannot switch to subdirectories and subdi- rectories cannot be created. For the FTP-server the two channels have to be set up initially in the script.
