www.pulsar.pl INTRE 2. Components arrangement. The figure below shows the distribution of the major components and connectors of the RS485ETHERNET interface. Fig. 2. The interface view. Table 1. Description of the components. Component Description No.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 3. Installation. 3.1 Basic guidelines.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 3.4 Installation of the interface. 1. Lead the cable of the RS485 bus through the cable gland and the appropriate hole in the enclosure and then connect to the RS485 connector of the interface. The A+, B- cables should be connected the same way as the rest of devices (A+ to A+, B- to B-) In the case of shielded wires, the shield should be connected to the SG signal ground terminal. 2. Optionally, mount the 120 Ohm terminal resistors at the end of the RS485 bus. 3.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 4. Configuration of the RS485-Ethernet interface. 4.1 Introductory information. Ethernet interface parameters can be configured to adjust them to the intended operation mode. The configuration is done with „PowerConfig” program. Download and install the „PowerConfig” program available on: http://www.pulsar.pl/pliki/PowerConfig.exe The configuration of the RS485-Ethernet interface requires a minimum version of the connection, which is shown below. Fig. 4.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 4.3 STEP 2 – Interface network search. For proper IP address change, it is recommended to turn off the firewall of the antivirus program for the time of configuration process. Run the „PowerConfig” program. Make sure that the Ethernet-RS485 INTRE module is powered and connected to the router with a network cable. In the "Module type" field choose the "Ethernet" and the search method. When the "UDP broadcast" is selected, the program will search for all the interfaces on the subnet.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 4.4 STEP 3 – The TCP/IP Network settings. Press the ‘Settings" button from the menu on the left side of the PowerConfig program window. A window will be displayed in the right part of the screen. Choose the "Network TCP / IP” from the top tab menu. This window allows setting the IP address for Ethernet communication. Fig. 7. The TCP/IP Network settings.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 4.5 STEP 4 – Setting the serial port parameters – the “Serial port” tab. In the "Serial port" tab, set the parameters responsible for the communication between Ethernet interface and the PSU as shown in the picture below. Fig. 8. Setting the serial port communication parameters.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 5. Configuration of power supplies. 5.1 Configuration of power supplies of the PSBEN series with LCD display The PSU fitted with LCD display enables setting the communication parameters of the serial port from the LCD panel. To enter the setup mode, press the „SET” button from the main screen.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 5.2 Configuration of power supplies of the PSBEN series with LED display. The PSU fitted with LED display enables setting the communication parameters of the serial port from the LED panel. To enter the setup mode, simultaneously press the „<,>” rightmost and leftmost buttons on the LED panel. - simultaneously press the „<,>” rightmost and leftmost - the „tSt” parameter will be displayed - press the right arrow „>” - the „tSt” parameter will be displayed - press „OK.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 5.3 Configuration of power supplies of the EN54 series with LCD display The PSU fitted with LED display enables setting the communication parameters of the serial port from the LED panel. To enter the setup mode, simultaneously press the „<,>” rightmost and leftmost buttons on the LED panel.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 5.4 Configuration of power supplies of the EN54 series with LED display. The PSU fitted with LED display enables setting the communication parameters of the serial port from the LED panel. To enter the setup mode, simultaneously press the „<,>” rightmost and leftmost buttons on the LED panel.
www.pulsar.pl INTRE 6. Configuring the connection in PowerSecurity program. For further configuration, the PowerSecurity program is required. The program is available on: http://www.pulsar.pl/pliki/PowerSecurity.exe It is an executable file, which does not require installation. 1) Save to disk and start the downloaded PowerSecurity.exe. 2) Choose the Power Supplies > New Power Supply option from the menu bar.
