EK280
Application Manual

a) Close time window / pre-allocate connections
To ensure that parameterization functions correctly, the time windows 1 to 4 need to be closed, and
parameterization of the connections must be pre-allocated. To do this:
−
Connect a PC or laptop with enSuite installed to the EK280 optical interface using the connection
cable.
−
Start enSuite and set up the communication link to the EK280 using the optical interface.
(
3.1 Setting up the communication link to the EK280 via optical interface
−
Send the following files to the EK280 (
EK280 - Reset all
types of connections and time windows to factory setting (*)
−
Then wait a minute, for any communications activity in progress on the EK280 to be safely stopped.
b) Sending parameter file
−
Depending on built-in modem type (
Kapitel
) send one the following files to the EK280
(
- ECM-GW120: EK280_xvx.. - int. ECM-GW120 - WipSoft (GSM) (*)
- ECM-2G-UG350:
EK280_xvx.. - int. ECM-2G-UG350 (GPRS) (*)
- ECM-3G-UU270:
EK280_xvx.. - int. ECM-3G-UU270 (GPRS) (*)
−
For the following customized settings and tests required, press "
Navigation
" on the left-hand side
and then "
Parameterize online
" at the bottom of the navigation window.
i
All the values listed in enSuite under "
Parameters
" can be found on the "Serv." display tab of the
EK280 under the same path.
c) Setting time window for potential data retrievals
In the base configuration now displayed you can define cyclic time windows, during which data can be
retrieved from the EK280 via the modem. There are two available time windows, which operate on EK280
battery power only and for versions of the EK280 with power supply there are two more, which operate only
on mains voltage.
i
Make the battery power time windows only as long and frequent as absolutely necessary. Each
time window reduces the EK280's battery life.
The editable time windows are not directly accounted for in calculation of expected battery life of
the "
Bat.R
" EK280 batteries. Therefore the expected battery life is not updated, when the time
windows are changed. Past time windows and data transfers are however used in remaining
battery and service life calculation for the "
BatRC
".
−
The two battery-power time windows are set in the enSuite device window under:
-
Parameters > Interfaces> Connections > Connection 1
and
-
Parameters > Interfaces> Connections > Connection 2

The "x" stands for the version of software on the device, e.g. "2v2".
The star * stands for a small letter which indicates the version of the file, e.g. "a".
