    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 3.4.3 Forwarding As the TMO-100 can connect two IP subnets together (the "WAN" side which is the TETRA network and the "LAN" side which is the network/equipment connected to the Ethernet port), it is using a network address translation for the data transfer between these networks.
  • Page 97 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 3.4.3.2 Single forwarding If the global forwarding is turned off, up to 16 single port forwards can be configured. It's possible to separate TCP and UDP port forwards, and each forward can send the data to different IP addresses and destination port numbers.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2 TMO-100 configuration 9.2.2.1 Master and slaves A communications network does always have at least one master device and a couple of slave devices. The master device is connected to the SCADA master who does the polling of the slave devices.
  • Page 248 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.3 Message routing As mentioned in the previous paragraph any messages should be individually addressed and sent only to the modem where the equipment is connected to which is the final destination for the data. When using packet data as transmission method, sending data to a group is generally not possible.
  • Page 249 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.4 Data compression Any Piciorgros modem or gateway will use data compression for serial data. As SCADA data telegrams are often containing similar pattern or lot of "zero's", a data compression can be very effective. The compression is totally transparent for the user, the only effect he may recognize is a better performance compared to applications which are not using data compression.
  • Page 250 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.5.3 Type of data transmission The selection of the transfer method between "SDS" and "Packet data" is done here. In case that the IP based transfer (packet data) is selected, a fallback to SDS can be activated.
  • Page 251 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.5.5 Fixed point to point communication The best starting point for a test of the serial communication is a simple point-to-point connection between a TMO-100 acting as a master and a TMO-100 acting as a slave.
  • Page 252 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 Some environments may have gaps of 10 character times even during regular data frames. This normally does not occur in equipment with embedded firmware like PLC's, RTU's, meters etc.; but a full loaded windows PC running a huge SCADA server package may produce gaps like this during task change if the serial interface is not loaded fast enough with following data.
  • Page 253 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.6 Configuration for SDS based data transfer By default any TETRA modem can send and receive SDS without additional configuration on the modem side. There are only a few points which need to be checked: • Is the maximum SDS length set to a value which matches the properties of the TETRA infrastructure? In case that the limitation of the TETRA infrastructure is not known, it's safer to stay at 140 bytes.
  • Page 254 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.7 Configuration for Packet Data based transmission 9.2.2.7.1 PDP Context activation To use the TETRA network for IP communication, the TMO-100 must register to the network for packet data use and get a TETRA IP address. This is called "PDP context activation".
  • Page 255 Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.2.7.2 IP assignment The TETRA network assigns a TETRA IP address (WAN IP) to the TMO-100 once the PDP context is activated. This IP address can be seen in the footer of the TMO-100 web configuration (a manual refresh may be needed): It is highly recommended to ensure that a TMO-100 always gets the same TETRA IP address from the SwMi.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.2.3 Connecting equipment to the TMO-100 In existing installations no additional modifications should be needed to use the TMO- 100 for the data transmission of SCADA protocols. The parameters of the TMO-100 should be configured to match the parameters of the equipment in the field.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 Communication scenarios Radio – to – radio communication 9.3.1 In radio-to-radio-scenarios the master application uses a TMO-100 which works as a TETRA master. The communication from the SCADA master into the TETRA network is using the TETRA air interface; therefore any single data transfer results in two transmissions over the TETRA network: •...

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 Switch – to – radio communication using Packet Data 9.3.2 This is the recommended scenario wherever it is possible. It requires an IP connection between the master application / SCADA server and the TETRA infrastructure. The Piciorgros TGW-100 is interfacing the serial communication from the SCADA master for the connection to the TETRA network, offering the same functionality like protocol analysis and routing, data compression etc.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 Troubleshooting 9.5.1 No SDS communication between master and slave SDS is a basic communication feature in TETRA networks. Nevertheless there are some points which can be checked if the communication is not possible. First of all it should be ensured that the data from the master is routed to the correct ISSI of the slave modem.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.5.3 The connection between customer equipment works by wire but not if the TMO- 100 are used instead Basically the TMO-100 works as a transparent replacement of a serial connection. The major difference is that the speed of the connection is far behind a wired connection and latency (delay) is given due to the transmission over a cellular wireless network.

    Funk-Electronic Piciorgros GmbH TMO-100V3 9.5.4 The connection works, but is dropping sometimes If the communication generally works, but you notice periods where it does not work, or if you see lost packets, check these points: • Is the TETRA field strength sufficient? We recommend having at least -90dBm or better, watching the RSSI LED bar at the TMO at least 4 yellow LED should be lit.
