CONFIGURATION
SERIAL PARAMETERIZATION TERMINAL
RS485 is used for transmitting information through the serial link in the VoltGuard system or for setting the RIO system
parameters. The RIO system settings require a built-in serial terminal on the RS485 line.
Connection
RS485 connection parameters: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9600, 8n1
The control terminal uses the RS485 interface in the semi-duplex mode. Once the power supply is on, the module
automatically sends the basic menu. In case the terminal is connected after the power supply on the modules is on, the
menu is sent immediately after ENTER is pressed again.
Basic menu
The basic menu enables the selection of four options. The selection is done by entering a number in square brackets
and pressing ENTER. In case you select a wrong option, the menu is automatically displayed again. You can use this fea-
ture when the display terminal is not ready after the power supply is on, i.e. after pressing ENTER the menu is displayed
again. The basic menu is displayed as follows:
----- DIO Terminal -----
[1] List digital inputs
[2] Slave settings list
[3] Change slave setting
[4] Save settings
Selection :
Option: [1] List digital inputs
The first option displays the way the processor interprets the digital inputs DIG_IN1 and DIG_IN2. In case the number 1
is displayed, 230V/50Hz voltage is connected on the DIG_IN input. Once the values are listed, the basic menu is auto-
matically displayed. The option “List digital inputs” is displayed as follows:
Selection :1
> Digital input 1 state : 0
> Digital input 2 state : 1
----- DIO Terminal -----
[1] List digital inputs
[2] Slave settings list
[3] Change slave setting
[4] Save settings
Selection :
Option: [2] Slave settings list
The master module is planned to enable controlling several slave devices. The current implementation enables trans-
ferring the setting only for slave 0 through PLC communication. The communication protocol for PLC is prepared for
slave type multi-node connections for future use. The option lists the setting for each slave and each input. This is
displayed in two lines. The setting is then interpreted by the slave. The input settings are described in next chapter. The
final list is displayed as follows:
Selection :2
> Slave 0, master input 1 controls : disabled and normal
> Slave 0, master input 2 controls : both and normal
> Slave 1, master input 1 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 1, master input 2 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 2, master input 1 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 2, master input 2 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 3, master input 1 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 3, master input 2 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 4, master input 1 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 4, master input 2 controls : direct and normal
> Slave 5, master input 1 controls : direct and normal
