Operation (Front Panel) – 3
3–3
The M-3520 has three levels of access codes,
which determine the extent of access to M-3520
functions for each user. The higher the Level
number, the greater access permitted.
Level
1
access - provides access to read setpoints,
monitor status and view target history.
Level
2
access - provides all level 1 access, plus
the ability to change setpoints.
Level
3
access - provides all level 1 & 2 access,
plus the ability to change configuration parameters.
Each access code is a user defined 1 to 4 digit
number. If the level 3 access code is set to 9999,
the access code feature is disabled. When access
codes are disabled, the access screens are
bypassed. Access codes are altered by choosing
the
ALTER ACCESS CODES
menu under
SETUP
UNIT
menu. (These codes can only be altered by
a level 3 user).
Default Message Screens
When the M-3520 is powered and unattended,
user logo lines are blanked.
If a function has operated and not been reset, it will
display the time and date of the operation and
automatically cycle through screens for each
applicable target. (This sequence is illustrated in
Figure 3-2.) In either case, pressing
ENTER
will
begin local mode operation, thereby displaying the
access code entry screen, or if access codes are
disabled, the first level menu will be displayed.
Serial Interfaces (COM1, COM2 and COM3)
The serial interface
COM1
port (front) and
COM2
port (rear) are standard 9-pin RS-232 DTE configured
communications ports.
The
COM1
port will normally be used for local
setting and interrogating of the relay via a portable
computer running IPScom
®
. IPScom only supports
communications using BECO 2200 protocol.
COM1
port protocol is fixed at BECO 2200. An additional
COM3
port (RS-485) is available at the rear terminal
block. Either the
COM2
port or the
COM3
port will
normally be used for remote setting and
interrogation of the relay via a network, direct
connection or permanently wired modem.
COM2
and
COM3
have the option of setting the
protocol to BECO2200 or MODBUS.
COM1
com-
municates at a fixed 8 bits, no parity and 2 stop
bits (8,N, 2 standard BECO 2200 settings). How-
ever,
COM2
and
COM3
have the option of set-
ting parity (none, odd or even) and stop bit (1,
2), if configured for MODBUS protocol. Detailed
information on the use of the communications
ports is provided in Appendix B,
Communica-
tions
.
The protocol description document and the
communication data base document may be
requested from the factory or from Beckwith’s web
site at www.beckwithelectric.com.
Communication Specifications
The following descriptions apply for use of
MODBUS protocol:
1.
MODBUS protocol is not supported on

3.
ASCII mode is not supported (RTU
only).
4.
Standard baud rates from 300 to 9600
are supported.
5.
Only the following MODBUS commands
are supported:
a. Read holding register (Function 03).
b. Read input register (function 04)
c. Force single coil (function 05)
d. Preset single register (function 06).
6.
MODBUS does not support oscillograph
record downloading.
