  • Page 8: Setting Up The Hardware

    Setting up the Hardware Hardware Configuration Setting Up the Hardware The ControlWaveLP comes pre-assembled, but does NOT include an enclosure. It comprises three boards, the CPU board, the Fixed Multifunction I/O Board (FMI/OB), and the Power Supply/Sequencer Board (PSSB). The FMI/OB board is on top, the PSSB board is in the middle, and the CPU board is on the bottom, attached to the mounting panel.

    Creating a Simple Project in Ladder Language (LD) Creating a Simple Project in Ladder Language (LD) Now, let's create a VERY simple project to run in your ControlWave LP. Let's say we have a water tank - when the water level in the tank goes below a certain level, a WATER_LOW signal is turned ON, and as a result, a START_PUMP signal needs to be turned ON to refill the tank.

Download the project into the ControlWave LP: WARNING Users should never attempt to download an untested program into a controller if the controller is currently connected to a running plant or industrial process. Safeguards must be taken prior to downloading to ensure that the controller is isolated from the process and I/O is disconnected.

  • Page 28 Part 2 Now that you've created a project, and downloaded it successfully, it's time to learn more about configuring the ControlWave LP. The configuration in this part is performed using the Flash Configuration Utility. • Establishing Communications with LocalView / NetView If the ControlWave LP has already been installed in an Open BSI network, and configured in NetView, starting NetView is the easiest way to establish communications.

  • Page 29: Establishing Comunications With Localview / Netview

  • Page 31 Establishing Communication with LocalView / NetView Establishing Communications Using NetView (ControlWave LP Already In a Network) IMPORTANT: This method assumes that the ControlWave LP has already been included in an Open BSI network within the NetView program, and that it has been configured to communicate over that network's communication line as described in the Open BSI Utilities Manual (document# D5081).

  • Page 32: Using The Flash Configuration Utility

    Using the Flash Configuration Utility Using the Flash Configuration Utility The Flash Configuration Utility may be accessed either through NetView or LocalView. In either case, it allows the user to specify all the major configuration parameters of the ControlWave LP. As part of this manual, we will only discuss those parts of the Flash Configuration Utility which are important for a first-time ControlWave LP user to know in order to get a ControlWave LP ‘up and running’.
  • Page 33 Using the Flash Configuration Utility • Application Parameters - Most of these are ‘tuning’ parameters which govern how the ControlWave LP executes its application (project). A discussion of application parameters is outside the scope of this manual. • Archive - Archive data is one portion of the historical capabilities of the ControlWave LP controller.
  • Page 34 Using the Flash Configuration Utility One application of this is to open a session with a new controller, and then load configuration information from the NETDEF file(s) that was for a different controller (via [Load from File]). This can be useful if multiple controllers have similar configurations;...

  • Page 37: Setting Soft Switches

    Setting Soft Switches (incl. Local Address) Setting Soft Switches The ControlWave LP controller, unlike many other Bristol controllers, does NOT have physical DIP switches for setting the BSAP local address or EBSAP group number. Instead, these parameters are stored in FLASH memory, and are configured using the Flash Configuration Utility.

  • Page 38: Configuring Communication Ports

    Configuring Communication Ports Configuring Communication Ports Setting Up A BSAP Slave Port Any of the ControlWave LP's five serial COM ports (COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, or COM5) can be configured as a BSAP Slave port. BSAP stands for Bristol Synchronous / Asynchronous Protocol.
  • Page 39 Configuring Communication Ports Step 4. Choose the desired baud rate from the "Baud Rate" field. This must match the baud rate configured in whichever other software is communicating with this controller, for example, the BSAP communication line in Open BSI, or the serial DLL in ControlWave Designer.

  • Page 40: Setting Up An Ethernet Port

    Configuring Communication Ports Setting Up an Ethernet Port ControlWave LP includes one optional Ethernet port. Step 1. Click on the ‘Ports’ tab, if you haven't already. Next, enter an IP address, First, choose the Ethernet then enter an IP mask port (ENET1) to define the valid range of IP addresses to which...

  • Page 41: Recommended Ranges For Ip Addresses

    Configuring Communication Ports Step 3. Specify an "IP ADDR A" and "IP MASK" for this port. IP addresses must be unique within your network. Conversely, IP masks are typically the same for all devices in the same portion of a network. Together, the IP Address and IP Mask define a range of addresses to which this port can send messages.

  • Page 42: Other Port Types

    Configuring Communication Ports If you have no plans to connect your network to the global Internet, there is no restriction on your choice of IP addresses, however, the Internet Engineering Task Force recommends, as per, RFC 1918 that IP addresses for private networks should be assigned from the following ranges: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255...

  • Page 43: Configuring Ip Parameters

    Configuring IP Parameters Configuring IP Parameters IP parameters are various settings related to how the ControlWave LP communicates over an IP (Internet Protocol) network. Here you should enter the primary IP address for this controller's Network Host PC (NHP). This is the secondary IP address for the same NHP, or the IP address of a redundant backup NHP.
  • Page 44 Configuring IP Parameters Alternatively, if there is a redundant backup NHP, its address should be entered here. If neither of these cases apply, "IP ADDR B" should be left blank. UDP Ports UDP ports (sometimes referred to as sockets) have nothing to do with physical communication port hardware.

    Configuring User Accounts and Privileges onfiguring User Accounts and Privileges The Security page of the Flash Configuration Utility allows usernames and passwords to be created for ControlWave LP users, and for user privileges to be defined. This allows restrictions to be created on who has access to various features and functions of the ControlWave LP. To access the Security page, click on the ‘Security’...
  • Page 46 Configuring User Accounts and Privileges When all desired privileges have been selected, click on the [Add] button and the user will be added to the system. NOTE: Every ControlWave LP has a special user called RDB_Max. This user account defines the maximum privileges allowed for RDB protocol messages coming into the ControlWave LP.

    Configuring User Accounts and Privileges Modifying the Privileges of an Existing User To change the privileges of an existing user, select the user’s name from the list of "Usernames" and select / de-select privileges for that user in the “Privileges” list box. When finished making selections, click on the [Modify] push button, and the modified privileges will be stored for that user.

    Appendix A - Troubleshooting Tips I made changes to configuration parameters in the ControlWave LP (port type, user accounts, etc.) but the old settings are still in effect. How come? This is one of the most common occurrences in ControlWave. For new settings to take effect, you must first reset the unit (turn the unit off, then turn it back on).
