Operations
CS500 devices support Data Logging and Service Tool functionality.
Data logging
The CS500 unit logs specific CAN messages, GNSS position data and internal variables according to its
configuration and sends them to the Danfoss PLUS+1
®
Connect portal.
CS500 devices have an internal non-volatile memory which allows the CS500 to store the logged data in
case of a cellular outage. When the cellular connection is recovered the logged data is sent to the
Danfoss PLUS+1
®
Connect portal automatically.
Service Tool
All PLUS+1
®
Service Tool functionalities may be executed remotely with the CS500.
GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System)
The GNSS enables the devices to determine their position using the Global Positioning System (GPS). The
position data can then be transmitted via the cellular connection to the Danfoss PLUS+1
®
Connect
portalor make it available to the connected CAN bus system.. The device includes a GNSS receiver for
determining position data: the receiver can process signals from GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo
satellites. It can process data from multiple navigation systems simultaneously: this increases the
accuracy.
The CS500 uses GNSS as a time source. When GNSS sync is not available, the local timing accuracy is ±2
seconds per day.
Wireless Solution
CS500 devices transmit data available on a CAN bus via 4G LTE, 3G UMTS/HSPA+, and 2G GSM/GPRS/
EDGE telecommunication services.
Beyond the 4G LTE, 3G UMTS/HSPA+, and 2G GSM/GPRS/EDGE functionality, these services allow for
communication with web servers at high data rates. The communication is based on the TCP/IP protocol,
the communication is encrypted and secure (TLS). Using these services requires a connection to a
Danfoss PLUS+1 Connect portal.
SIM card
Factory installed into the device there is a network operator SIM card.
Inserting generic SIM card is not possible because the housing cannot be opened.
The functionality depending on the ambient temperature can be assured for the maximum transfer rate
only between -38 °C to 55 °C (36.4 °F to 131 °F).
Input/output functions (I/O)
CS500 features four multifunction input/output (2 DIN/AIN/ResIN/FreqIN/CrntIN/DOut and 2 DIN/AIN/
ResIN/FreqIN/CrntIN) configurable with several options similar to the type of pins available on PLUS+1
