High/Low Alarm
For Analog values, the panel changes to the
configured “Alarm Color” when the value moves
above or below these limits. For Digital values,
the panel changes to the alarm color if the digital
value is ON and the High Alarm is One(1), or if
the Digital value is OFF, and the High alarm is
Zero (0).
Invert
This allows you to invert the status of a digital
point so that the panel shows “On” when the
digital is zero, and “Off” when the digital is one.
Register/Display
Pt 1/2
This sets the scaling for the Analog display. Set
the high and low register value in Register Pt
1/2 field, and the desired display value in the
corresponding Display Pt 1/2 fields. The display
will scale linearly between these points.
Tag Groupse:
This section allows you to group together related
display panels. Each row of the table describes one tag group. Use
the “Add Entry”, “Insert Entry” and “Delete Entry” buttons to build
your list of tag groups, the configure the following items.
Name
The name you want to give to the group of tags.
Count
The number of tags to include in the group.
Dashboard Switchese:
This section allows you to add switches to
the dashboard to control digital output points. When you slide the
switch on the dashboard, the configured digital output changes
state. Each row of the table describes one switch. Use the “Add
Entry”, “Insert Entry” and “Delete Entry” buttons to build your
list of items to display on the dashboard. For each item, enter the
configuration parameters.
Name
The name you want to give to the switch.
Register
The Digital output register you want the
switch to control.
Invert
Check this if you want the register state to be Off
when the switch is On, and On when the switch
is Off.
I/O Mapping configuration
You can configure the 215U-2 to copy the status of I/O registers
to other ELPRO series products using the WIB register mapping
protocol. WIB protocol is supported by many of the ELPRO product
series, including 915U-2, 415U-2, 215U-2, and 115E-2 devices.
The WIB protocol is an event based protocol with integrity reporting.
This allows you to configure a network supporting both low latency
and low bandwidth requirements, while still supporting data
integrity. WIB messages are transferred between ELPRO series
devices using standard IP addressing and UDP/IP message delivery.
WIB Protocol uses UDP protocol on port number 4370.

Devices can be configured in Routed mode, where the devices have
separate interface addresses for Radio and Ethernet ports. Make sure you
enter the correct address to allow your message to reach the device via
the correct interface. If the device you are mapping to is not on the same
subnetwork, you may need to configure additional routing rules in your
network to allow the message to reach its destination.
The 215U-2 supports three separate types of message. You can
select the message types that best suit your application.
•
Block Write: for transferring contiguous blocks of data, between
two stations.
•
Gather-Scatter Write: for transferring non-contiguous blocks of
data between two stations.
•
Read: for requesting contiguous blocks of data. Normally used
where a single master station is controlling all communications in
a system.
You can set write messages (both Block and gather-scatter) to be
triggered on a time, on a change-of-state, or a combination of both.
You can configure how the write messages change-of-state are
triggered through the sensitivity blocks. You can configure read
messages to be triggered on a time basis or by a command from a
remote master station.
Figure 27. I/O Mapping configuration
Selecting “I/O Mappings” on the right of the screen takes you
to a page where you can reach configuration pages for each
mapping type.
Click on the link to reach the mapping configuration page that you
need to access.
Write Mappings are messages sent from the local unit to write
values into registers of a remote unit.
Block Write Mappingse:
These mappings work with blocks of
registers. They are the best choice when you want to transfer blocks
of contiguous register data from one device to another.
Gather Scatter Write Mappingse:
These mappings work by choosing
individual I/O points and allowing each I/O point to be mapped to
an individual I/O point at the remote end. They are more difficult to
configure, but are the best choice when your I/O data that you need
to transfer is not in contiguous blocks.
Click on the “Write Mappings” link to access the block write
mappings configuration table, or on the “Gather Scatter Write
Mappings” link to access the gather scatter configuration table.

The 215U-2 contains one automatically generated Gather Scatter Write
Mapping. This implements the Back-to-Back I/O Mapping function described in
section “Default Back-To-Back Gather Scatter Mapping” on
page 20
.
Each line of the table defines one mapping message. Use the “Add
Entry”, “Insert Entry” and “Delete Entry” buttons to build your list of
write mappings to configure. Edit the items as below:
Enabled
You can enable or disable individual mappings for
testing and diagnostics. Ensure this is checked for
the mapping to operate.
Name
Enter a descriptive name for the mapping.
Destination IP
Enter the IP Address of the destination ELPRO
series product.
otee:
N
When operating in ProMesh mode, there you
can use the special names “BASE” and “REMOTE”
as the destination device. BASE is the IP address of
the system Base device, and REMOTE is the
IP address of the Mesh Node that last sent an
I/O message to the Base.
