    In addition, you can read and set the configuration of remote devices, as well as check the status and the goodness of the connection. The control unit (UC-RF) is a standard DIN rail module. The unit is equipped with a socket for connection to a power source, an industrial standard bus interface connector for communication with the PLC and an antenna output for RF communication with the position indicator electronic RF and Elesa meters (to be ordered separately).

  • Page 6: Rf Communication

    3.2 Connection to the PLC The UC-RF must be connected to the PLC via an Ethernet RJ45 cable by using one of the two ports on the front of it (see drawing below). Both ports are equivalent. In case two PLCs (or PLC+PC) are connected, make sure that conflicts are avoided.

    UC-RF that requests it. Once the ASSOCIATION (bind) request has been received from a UC-RF , the remote device stores the ID of the UC-RF as its only interlocutor on the network. The remote device can be returned to the NON-ASSOCIATED condition (unbinded) via the appropriate menu item present on each device.

  • Page 8: Uc-Rf Status Led

    If the red LED and the green LED continue to flash alternately, check the connection to the PLC and/or the IP address configuration. If the red LED and the green LED remain lit, the UC-RF is active and waiting for the operating MODE to be set (see Chap. 0).

    If the link is not reachable, please contact the Elesa customer service. The GSD file allow the PLC to recognize the UC-RF on the Profinet bus. Then it is needed to configure 56 8bits long slots as follows: - Slot 0 a Slot 27 - uscita (PLC a UC) - Slot 28 a Slot 55 - ingresso (UC a PLC) Each data block length is 224 bytes.

    One read-only array (UC-RF => PLC) exposes, in the first 216 bytes, data read by UC-RF from individual remote devices. The other array, read-write (PLC => UC-RF), in the first 216 bytes, allows UC-RF to set the data to be transmitted to the remote devices.

    Some commands require data and parameters to be sent as specified below for each command. There is no significant data that needs to be read back from the UC-RF , except the status of the UC- RF to identify that the data sent has been processed via the Data Valid Ok flag (10.1 - UC-RF status).

    8.1.3 Command ID 0x03 – Reset Message Cnt This command resets the message counters received from associated devices (see 8.9). After the procedure is completed, the UC-RF is not restarted and its operation is not interrupted. Command ID: 0x03 Control Word: 0xA55A 0x03 –...

  • Page 17: Command Id 0X0A - Load Binding Table

    8.1.4 Command ID 0x0A – Load Binding Table This command reloads the table of associated devices from the non-volatile memory of the UC-RF . This table is saved automatically after each configuration send in mode 0x28. In this way, it is not necessary to repeat the remote device association procedure when the UC-RF is rebooted.

    Note that currently changing the RF channel via this command, does not automatically update the same setting on the remote devices as well, which will have to be manually aligned At the end of the procedure, the UC-RF is not restarted and its operation is not interrupted. Command ID: 0x15...

  • Page 19: Mode 28 - Binding

    8.2 MODE 28 – Binding In MODE 28, it is possible to tell UC-RF the ID of devices that are part of its subnetwork. To associate a remote device with UC-RF , it is sufficient to write into PLC=>UC-RF memory, in the position shown in Tab.
  • Page 20 The ID of the device to be associated can be read on the device via the appropriate menu item. In the UC-RF=>PLC memory is the list of IDs not associated with any UC-RF that are transmitting in the covered area.

  • Page 21: Mode 29 - Already Connected Devices

    8.3 MODE 29 – Already connected devices MODE 29 is similar to MODE 28 but in the UC-RF=>PLC memory it will show the IDs of devices already associated with the UC-RF that are transmitting in the covered area but not registered in the binded table.

  • Page 22: Mode 22 - Target And Position

    MODE 29 is useful for retrieving the configuration of a machine at power-up. In this case you will have the remote devices that are battery powered have retained their configuration while UC-RF , having been switched off has lost its table of associated devices. Obviously, the list of associated devices could be stored in the PLC but should you wish to retrieve a configuration from scratch MODE 29 can be useful.
