Page 270: Appendix A: Database Endianness
13. Appendix A: Database Endianness A key feature of the Millennium Series gateways is the ability to change the byte order storage scheme for data in the database between big endian and little endian. The database endianness is the convention used to store multi-byte data to or retrieve multi-byte data from the database.
Page 271 This example shows how the hex value 12345678 is retrieved from the database using a big endian byte order. Since the hex value 12 is at address “a”, the lowest address, it is the most significant byte. Figure 103: Big Endian Retrieval This other example shows how the hex value 12345678 is retrieved...
Page 272: Ex: Modbus - Profibus
The selection of the correct byte ordering is crucial for coherent interaction between these two types of networks on the gateway. The following presents examples of how the database endianness affects end-to-end communication between networks and when each byte-ordering scheme should be used. 13.1 Ex: Modbus - Profibus This example shows the interaction between a network using an object value method (Modbus) and one using a bag of bytes method (Profibus) to exchange...
Page 273: Ex: Modbus - Devicenet
Figure 106: Modbus - Profibus Little Endian 13.2 Ex: Modbus - DeviceNet This example shows the interaction between a network using an object value method (Modbus) and one using a bag of bytes method (DeviceNet) to exchange data. The gateway reads holding registers 1 and 2 from the Modbus network, stores the data into the database, and then sends the 4 bytes of input data onto the DeviceNet network.
Page 274: Ex: Bacnet - Devicenet
In contrast, Figure 108 shows the effects of configuring the database for big- endian byte order. Holding registers 1 and 2 again have values of 0x1234 and 0x5678, respectively. However, when the DeviceNet device receiving the input data from the gateway interprets these values, the resulting pairs of 2-byte values become 0x3412 and 0x7856, thus receiving incorrect values for holding registers 1 and 2.
Page 275 Figure 109: BACnet - DeviceNet Little Endian Conversely, Figure 110 illustrates the consequences of configuring the database for big-endian byte order using this scenario. Once again, Analog Value 0 has a value of 0x12345678. But now, when the DeviceNet device interprets the 4 bytes of input data sent by the gateway, the resulting 4-byte value is 0x78563412, thus receiving an incorrect value for Analog Value 0.
Page 276: Ex: Bacnet - Modbus (Analog Objects-Registers)
13.4 Ex: BACnet - Modbus (Analog Objects-Registers) This example exhibits two networks that both use an object value scheme to exchange data. In this scenario, the database endianness is irrelevant if the data types are the same for both networks. This example shows communication between a BACnet network and a Modbus network using two 16-bit analog value BACnet objects and two 16-bit Modbus holding registers.
Page 277: Ex: Bacnet - Modbus (Binary Objects-Discretes)
13.5 Ex: BACnet - Modbus (Binary Objects-Discretes) This example also contains two networks that both employ an object value method for exchanging data, but unlike the previous example, the database endianness affects the end-to-end alignment of the data. In this example, communication is taking place between a BACnet network and a Modbus network using single-bit data elements.
