2 D2010M Analog Input Field Unit

2.1 Overview
The D2010M Analog Field Unit is an acquisition system installable in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations,
connected and powered from the Power Supply / Gateway D2050M through 1 or 2 connection lines carrying both
power and signal from Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations to Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations.
Any D2010M can connect up to 16 analog signals from thermocouples, thermoresistances, low level mV or
mA (with proper external shunt resistor) or V (with proper external voltage divider) signals.
The unit is Intrinsically Safe for installation in Zone 1, 2, Gas Group IIC, IIB, IIA Temperature Classification T4 or
Class I, Division 1 and 2, Groups A,B, C and D, Temperature Code T4 or Class II, Division 1 and 2, Groups E,F and
G,
Temperature Code T4 or Class III, Division 1 and 2, Temperature Code T4 or Class I, Zone 1, 2 Group IIC, IIB, IIA,
Temperature Code T4 Hazardous Locations.
Accepts input sensor from Zone 0, 1, 2, Gas Group IIC, IIB, IIA or Class I, Division 1 and 2, Groups A,B, C and D or
Class II, Division 1 and 2, Groups E,F and G or Class III, Division 1 and 2 or Class I, Zone 0, 1, 2 Group IIC, IIB, IIA
Hazardous Locations.
Every analog field unit may be expanded with up to 3 analog input expanders D2011M, allowing a total capability of
64 inputs for every node and a total capability of 256 analog inputs for every system.
Multiplexer D2010M Units, and Expander D2011M Units can be installed in the field, by using proper enclosures
(like GM2300 series) that provide a higher degree of protection.
Units are installed close to input sensors, for data acquisition from Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations and
connected to a Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations PLC/DCS or other devices, via 2 wire communication link thru
Gateway D2050M Unit, saving wiring, cables and costs.
D2010M and D2011M units can also be installed in Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations, providing a proper mean of
protection to reach required IP degree.

2.2 Features
The D2010M unit is constituted by a dual supply, a control unit, an analog conversion block and a 16 channel analog
multiplexer providing up to 200 V (test voltage) of isolation with mV or thermocouple inputs and up to
60 V (test voltage) of isolation with resistance or thermoresistance inputs.
Additionally a 500 V (test voltage) isolation is provided from inputs to communication line.
Thermoresistance connection may be done with 2, 3, or 4 wires; except for 2 wires connections, the others include line
resistance compensation (for 2 wires thermoresistance use 3 wires connection with a wire jumper to connect the third
wire).
The programming of the unit is done through the D2050M gateway and allows the individual assignment of a sensor
for each channel, including additional operation capabilities (see later).
An internal high accuracy analog to digital converter provides accurate digitalization of input sensors.
The compensation of thermocouples is done using a dedicated channel (channel 16) of each group of 16 channels,
the assignment is done automatically when at least one thermocouple with automatic cold junction compensation is
selected, this limits the maximum number of TCs for the system to 15, 30, 45 or 60; the compensation channel used is
indicated in the following table:

Channel for
Group Unit Channels
Compensation
1 D2010M 1 to 16 16
2 D2011M - expansion 1 17 to 32 32
3 D2011M - expansion 2 33 to 48 48
4 D2011M - expansion 3 49 to 64 64

If the fixed compensation mode is selected for all the thermocouples within a unit, channel 16 for compensation can
be used for other measures.

Note 1: in order to acquire a 0/4-20 mA input signal an external shunt resistor is required. See Section 2.3.1 at
page 11 for details on this type of connection.

Additional features of the unit allow the selection of the burnout capability for mV and thermocouple inputs.
The burnout detection is performed by a separate circuit allowing verification of the cable integrity without affecting the
measuring accuracy; burnout detection, if active, is done at every scan of the sensor, the result is passed to the
master gateway only if the test is successful, otherwise an error indication is reported.
In all cases a filtering function can be activated, channel by channel, removing excessive flickering of the measure and
increasing response time.

5.5 Safety consideration on field communication lines

D2050M field lines conform to the IEC 60079-27 (FISCO) standard requirements and need specific connection cable
(see Section 8) to connect to D2010M or D2030M units.
The D2050M is intended to be installed in Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations, while the D2010M, D2011M and

5.6 Software features of D2050M

5.6.1 Management of the communication lines (field communication)
The D2050M has an embedded management system for the monitoring of field communication lines.
This allows communication efficiency and safety, avoiding host from taking care of detectable and recoverable
malfunctions of the communication line especially when redundant field lines are used.
In the case of a single line no recovery actions are possible and operability is limited to the reporting of the
malfunction. If two lines are installed, the management is more sophisticated and can be described as follows:
 when both lines are installed and operative, the system switches between the two lines at a predefined
cadence;
this is done to verify that both lines are working properly.
 if an error is detected, a retry function is activated to verify if the malfunction is only temporary
(e.g. caused by strong disturbances on the line).
 if, after retrying, the malfunction remains, the gateway considers the line as broken or unreliable.
It then enters a recovery status, switches to the operating line, stops line exchange and reports an error.
After a repair of the damaged line a software command or a system reboot will reactivate the previous operating
mode.

5.6.2 Mapping of output contact repeaters

Both types of contact repeaters are treated by the gateway in the same mode. Each repeater can be mapped to any
digital field unit D2030M; multiple associations are possible in order to allow the repeating of one D2030M to up to four
D2052M, D2053M repeaters. This process is transparent to the serial protocols, so the user can access the
information on all input units regardless if they are repeated, partially repeated or not repeated at all.

8 System Wiring
8.1 General
The D2000M Multiplexer System uses a physical support for operation (ISO OSI - Physical Layer) derived by the
FISCO specifications as defined in the standard IEC 60079-27 and used for some fieldbus applications.
According to this standard the units may be installed in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations, provided that the
connection complies with the specific requirements listed in the following sections.

8.2 Connection Topology

The topology of the connection is the BUS type: one single line connecting all nodes as follows:

Node #1 Node #2 Node #3 Node #4 Node #5

The units are connected to the nodes so that the line appears as a continuous connection starting from the first node
and ending at the last node.
For the D2000M Multiplexer the communication line MUST be done with a cable with specific properties, with a total
length (first to last node) not exceeding 1 km for Gas Group IIC (Groups A and B) or 5 km for Gas Group IIB, IIA
(Groups C, D, E, F and G).
The D2050M Gateway must be installed at one end of the cable and it provides the cable termination network.
Field units are installed along the cable, the last unit must have the terminating resistance activated.
If two or more Units are connected close together, they may be connected to a node as follows:

D2050M Field Unit Field Unit Field Unit Field Unit

Gateway 1 2 3 4

The length of the connections from a node to a unit must not exceed 30 m and the terminating resistor must be
activated in the unit at the end of the BUS line (called the trunk) e.g. in unit 4 (see Section 8.4).
When a redundant connection is used the, wiring layout is replicated in an identical way in two independent and
isolated groups.
Note: it is a good practice that the master and redundant cables are not installed in the same location in order to
reduce the possibilities of simultaneous breakage of the lines.

For installations in which both the Ci and Li of the Intrinsically Safe apparatus exceeds 1 % of the Co and Lo
parameters of the D2000M Apparatus (excluding the cable), then 50 % of Co and Lo parameters are applicable
and shall not be exceeded (50 % of the Co and Lo become the limits which must include the cable such that
Ci device + C cable  50 % of Co and Li device + L cable  50 % of Lo).
If the cable parameters are unknown, the following value may be used:
Capacitance 60 pF per foot (180 pF per meter), Inductance 0.20 H per foot (0.60 H per meter).
The Intrinsic Safety Entity Concept allows the interconnection of Intrinsically Safe devices approved with entity
parameters not specifically examined in combination as a system when the above conditions are respected.
For Division 1 and Zone 0, 1 installations, the configuration of Intrinsically Safe Equipment must be FM approved
under Entity Concept, UL Listed or third party approved;
for Division 2 installations, the configuration of Intrinsically Safe Equipment must be FM approved under non-incendive
field wiring or Entity Concept, UL Listed or third party approved.

9.2.1 Safety consideration on field communication lines

D2050M field communication and supply lines conform to the IEC 60079-27 (FISCO) standard requirements and need
specific connection cable to connect D2010M or D2030M units.
The cable parameters must comply with the following:
 Loop Resistance: from 15 Ω/km to 150 Ω/km
 Loop Inductance: from 0.4 mH/km to 1 mH/km
 Capacitance: from 45 nF/km to 200 nF/km (capacitance must be considered
C = Cwire/wire + 0.5 x Cwire/screen for fieldbus circuit insulated or
C = Cwire/wire + Cwire/screen for screen connected to the output of the
fieldbus power supply.
 Maximum Length of each Spur: 30 m in Group IIC (A, B) or IIB, IIA (C, D, E, F and G)
 Maximum Length of the Trunk: 1 km in Group IIC (A, B) or 5 km in Group IIB (C, D, E, F and G),
including length of all spur cables.
Note: NOT ONLY the maximum but ALSO the minimum values are mandatory.
Master (Line 1) and redundant (Line 2) connections MUST NOT be shorted together modifying cable parameters.
Particular care should be given when connecting Line 1 and Line 2 shields to earth. For D2050M installation in
Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations the connection to earth must be done in Safe Area only, and in a single point
only. For D2050M installation in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations (mounted in an enclosure providing a suitable
type of explosion protection), the connection to earth must be done only in a single point and only at one side of the
communication line.

9.3 Installation
These general rules must be applied for proper safety of the installation:
 D2000M series are Multiplexer System housed in a plastic enclosure suitable for installation on T35 DIN Rail
according to EN50022. The top part of the unit is protected by a metallic cover. Unit can be mounted with any
orientation over the entire ambient temperature range.
 Electrical connection of conductors up to 2.5 mm2 are accommodated by polarized plug-in removable screw
terminal blocks which can be plugged in/out into a powered unit without suffering or causing any damage.
The field wiring cables have to be proportionate in base to the current and the length of the cable.
If Modbus output lines are shielded, the shield must be earthed in a single point only. If earthed at DCS/PLC
side they must not be earthed at the D2050M side, and vice versa.
 Intrinsically Safe conductors must be identified and segregated from non I.S. and wired in accordance to the
relevant national/international installation standards (e.g. IEC/EN60079-14 Electrical apparatus for explosive
gas atmospheres - Part 14: Electrical installations in hazardous areas, BS 5345 Pt4, VDE 165,
ANSI/ISA RP12.06.01 Installation of Intrinsically Safe System for Hazardous (Classified) Locations,
National Electrical Code NEC ANSI/NFPA 70 Section 504 and 505, and the Canadian Electrical Code CEC),
make sure that conductors are well isolated from each other and do not produce any unintentional connection.
The proper construction and isolation of the cable must be satisfied so that a short may be excluded to occur.

 The enclosure provides, according to EN60529, an IP20 minimum degree of mechanical protection (or similar to
NEMA Standard 250 type 1) for indoor installation, outdoor installation requires an additional enclosure with
higher degree of protection (i.e. IP54 to IP65 or NEMA type 12-13) consistent with the effective operating
environment of the specific installation.
G.M. International provides stainless steel enclosures for field installation (GM2300 Series).

 Units must be protected against dirt, dust, extreme mechanical (e.g. vibration, impact and shock) and thermal
stress, and casual contacts. If enclosure needs to be cleaned use only a cloth lightly moistened by a mixture of
detergent in water. Any penetration of cleaning liquid must be avoided to prevent damage to the unit.
Any unauthorized card modification must be avoided.
 Electrostatic Hazard: to avoid electrostatic hazard, the enclosure of D2000M must be cleaned only with a damp
or antistatic cloth. Grounding facilities, needed to avoid electrostatic discharge must be earthed properly.
 According to EN61010, D2050M must be connected to SELV or SELV-E supplies.
 D2050M can be installed in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations (apparatus category 2 G) mounted in an
enclosure providing a suitable type of explosion protection.

10 Service Protocol (RS-232 Serial Port)

10.1 General
The D2050M gateway supports a textual ASCII protocol via an RS-232 serial port intended for:
 programming of the operating parameters
 verification of programming parameters
 monitoring of the system and units
This protocol is based upon a proprietary syntax described in this section.
The settings of the serial port are fixed so that, even in the case that the gateway is not programmed or the internal
parameter setting was lost, a communication with the gateway may still be done.
The settings are:
 baud rate 19200
 parity none
 length 8 data bit, 1 stop bit
The communication connector is a 9 pin Sub D male connector with the following pin assignment:
Pin Function
1 not connected
2 data receive (from external host to the D2050M)
3 data receive (to external host from the D2050M)
4 not connected
5 common (transmission line ground)
6 not connected
7 not connected
8 not connected
9 not connected

The message exchange uses ASCII strings formatted as required by the specific command and is terminated by the
CR character (13 decimal, 0x0D hexadecimal).
Valid characters are all printable ASCII characters, starting from the character “space” (32 decimal, 0x20 hexadecimal)
and ending with the character “” (126 decimal, 0x7E hexadecimal), plus the CR. Other characters are not allowed
and
will generate an error.
The maximum length of the incoming message (to the D2050M gateway) is internally limited: the gateway will reject
longer frames issuing an error message.
The handshake is master-slave: the host is a master and the D2050M gateway is a slave.
After a command has been sent to the D2050M, the host must wait for an answer or a timeout, before issuing the next
command. Answer time of the D2050M is lower than 2 ms: this time is calculated from the end of the transmitted
message to the beginning of the answer message (in detail from the end of stop bit of the last character of the
command message to the start bit of the first character of the answer message).
The total exchange time must take in account the timing of a character at 19200 baud and the length of both command
and answer messages.
The structure of commands is build up by concatenated fields.
Fields are separated by symbols; between symbols spaces are allowed, except for in the tag field where they are
automatically removed by the command interpreter of the D2050M.

In example, the following formats are equivalent (the symbols < and > are added for clarity):
C1.4=1234
C 1 . 4 = 1234
Both write the configuration code 1234 to the channel 4 of field unit 1.
Even the following are equivalent:
T1.4=Water_In_20
T 1 . 4 =Water_In_20
Both write the tag name <Water_In_20> to the tag of channel 4 of unit 1.
The following are NOT equivalent:
T1.4=Water_In_20
T1.4= Water _In _20
The first writes the tag name <Water_In_20> to the tag of channel 4 of unit 1.
The second writes < Water _In _20> to the same channel tag.
The commands start with a letter, followed by the required fields; commands supported are:

Command Syntax
Description Syntax for Write
Code for Read

C channel configuration read/write Cu.c Cu.c=w

D channel data read/write Du.c Du.c=w

S system configuration read/write Su.n Su.n=w

T Channel tag read/write Tu.c Tu.c=t

where:
U unit number from 0 to 4 (0 for master, used only with Su.n and Tu.c commands)
C channel number from 1 to 64
N parameter number from 1 to 16
W word value from 0 to 65535 (see valid word values for every application)
T tag name from 0 (string empty) to 16 printable ASCII characters
 carriage return symbol

10.2 Commands
10.2.1 Field Unit Channel Configuration Command – Cu.c
This command reads or writes a configuration word of a channel: configuration word defines channel operation:
the syntax for reading is: Cu.c
the syntax for writing is: Cu.c=w
The value for the word must be in integer decimal format, the value must comply with the values admitted for
analog and digital channels, no check is done on the word value, except that the word must be an integer value
between 0 and 65535.
The answer message will be Cu.c=w
if the command was executed, otherwise an error message is issued as defined in the error section.

[Link] Field Unit D2010M/D2011M data format

Analog inputs data formatting uses one word for every channel in offset binary format, the representation of a channel
value depends on the unit associated with the measure of every channel as follows:
Range Unit Resolution Format
Channel OFF - - always reads as 0
mV range 1 mV 2 µV LSB is equal to 1 µV (e.g. 12425 = 12.425 mV)
mV range 2 mV 10 µV LSB is equal to 10 µV (e.g. 6532 = 65.32 mV)
Ohm range Ω 0.1 Ω LSB is equal to 0.1 Ω (e.g. 2851 = 285.1 Ω)
Thermocouples °C 0.1 °C LSB is equal to 0.1 °C (e.g. 12425 = 1242.5 °C)
Thermoresistances °C 0.1 °C LSB is equal to 0.1 °C (e.g. 7654 = 765.4 °C)
Compensator °C 0.1 °C LSB is equal to 0.1 °C (e.g. 1242 = 124.2 °C)

Over range, under range and burnout conditions return the following values depending on sensor configuration word
(see Section [Link]):
Condition No burnout, burnout upscale or downscale Coded burnout
Under range lower limit - 1 32000 (0x7D00)
Over range higher limit + 1 32001 (0x7D01)
Burnout down scale lower limit - 1 32002 (0x7D02)
Burnout up scale higher limit + 1 32003 (0x7D03)

[Link] Field Unit D2030M data format

Digital inputs data formatting uses a 16 bit word to represent the status of 8 discrete inputs, including line fault
information. Every channel data word therefore represents a set of inputs as in the following table:
Data Channel Inputs
1 01 to 08
2 09 to 16
3 17 to 24
4 25 to 32

The input information is constituted by 2 bits: a OFF/ON value and an fault value, as follows:
OFF/ON bit Status bit Input condition
0 0 OFF status
1 0 ON status
0 1 line opened (fault)
1 1 line shorted (fault)

The bit organization within a data word is the following (word of channel 1 shown):
Bit 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
OFF/ON bit of input 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Status bit of input 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Examples:
Response: D1.1=00000 inputs 1 to 8 are OFF, no line faults
D1.1=00001 input 1 is ON, inputs 2 to 7 are OFF, no line faults
D1.1=00256 input 1 line is opened, inputs 2 to 7 are OFF
D1.1=00257 input 1 line is shorted, inputs 2 to 7 are OFF

the real configuration, instead, contains the actual implementation of slaves: more precisely, the real configuration is
managed by the system and can only be read by the user/host; during normal operation the two values should be
coincident. A difference between the two indicates that the gateway has detected that connected units topology differs
from the desired one. This may happen when a unit is added or removed.

11 Modbus Protocol
Modbus is a registered trademark of Schneider Automation Incorporated.

11.1 General Description

The modbus protocol is widely used to exchange data between master and slave units in industrial environments,
the advantage is that common physical supports such as RS-485 or RS-232 communication lines can be used;
additionally the protocol’s simplicity and wide application allows its use with many computers or PLC and a variety of
application programs are available. Today’s line drivers ranging up to a speed of 115200 bit/s allow fast and efficient
data transfer.

11.2 The Frame Format

The format used by the D2050M gateway is the RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) format, exchanging data using
8 bit bytes. The advantage of this mode is that its density allows high data throughput for the baud rate used.
The message is transmitted in a continuous stream, an interval of 1.5 character defines the end of a frame.
A typical modbus frame is constituted by the following fields:

Address Function Data CRC-CHECK

8 bit slave address 8 bit function code N x 8 bit data field 16 bit crc field

The address field of a message frame contains a eight bits slave addresses in the range 0 to 247 decimal.
The individual slave is assigned addresses in the range of 1 to 247.
A master addresses a slave by placing the slave address in the address field of the message. When the slave sends
its response, it places its own address in this address field of the response frame.
Address 0 is used for the broadcast address, which is recognized by all slaves.
The function code field of a message frame contains a byte defining the function code.
When a message is sent from a master to a slave, the function code tells the slave the kind of action to perform.
When the slave responds to the master, it uses the function code field to indicate either a normal (error–free) response
or that some kind of error occurred (called exception response). In addition the slave places a unique code into the
data field of the response message: this tells the master what kind of error occurred.
The data field has different size and format as a function of the command involved, detailed data formats for
master/slave and slave/master messages are defined for every type of command.
If no error occurs, the data field of a response from a slave to a master contains the data requested.
If an error occurs, the field contains an exception code that the master application can use to determine the type of
error.
The error checking field contains a 16–bit value. The error check value is the result of a cyclical redundancy check
calculation performed on the message contents. The CRC field is appended to the message as the last field in the
message. The receiving device recalculates a CRC during receipt of the message, and compares the calculated value
to the actual value it received in the CRC field. If the two values are not equal, an error results.

11.3.1 Command 3, 4 – Read Holding, Input Registers

This function code is used to read the contents of a contiguous block of registers form the D2050M.
The starting address and the number of registers start from zero.
The register data in the response message are packed as two bytes per register.
For each register, the first byte contains high order bits and the second contains low order bits.
The format of the request is:

11.3.3 Command 16 – Preset Multiple Registers

This function code is used to write the contents of a contiguous block of registers into the D2050M.
The starting address and the number of registers are addressed starting from zero. Register data are packed as two
bytes for each register, the first byte contains high order bits and the second contains low order bits.
The format of the request is:
Name Size Value
Function Code 1 byte 0x10
Starting Address 2 bytes see word address section
Number of Registers 2 bytes decimal 1 to 64 (0x0001 to 0x0040)
Data to be written 2xN 2 bytes for every register

The format of the response is:

Name Size Value
Function Code 1 byte 0x10
Starting Address 2 bytes copy of request
Number of Registers 2 bytes copy of request

11.4 Errors – Exception Responses

If the D2050M does not receive the request due to a communication error, or detects a wrong CRC value, no response
is returned. The host should eventually process a timeout condition for the request.
If the D2050M receives the request without a communication error, but cannot handle it (e.g. if the request is to read a
non–existing register), it will return an exception response informing the host of the nature of the error.
The format of the exception response is:
Name Size Value
Function Code 1 byte 0x80 + function code of request
Exception Code 1 byte 0x01, 0x02, 0x03

In a normal response, the D2050M echoes the requested function code in the function code field of the response.
All function codes have the most–significant bit (MSB) equal to 0 (values below 0x80).
In an exception response, the D2050M sets the MSB of the function code to 1: this makes the function code value in
an exception response exactly 0x80 higher than the value of a normal response.
In a normal response, the D2050M can return data in the data field, in an exception response, the D2050M returns an
exception code in the data field, this defines the condition that caused the exception.
Handled exceptions are:
Code Name Notes
01 Illegal Function function code received in the query is not executable by the D2050M
(code different from 03, 04, 06, 16)
02 Illegal Data Address data address received in the query is not an allowable address,
more specifically the combination of starting address and data length is invalid
03 Illegal Data Value a value contained in the query data field is not an allowable value

[Link] Analog inputs data registers

Analog inputs data formatting uses one word for every channel, in offset binary format, the representation of a channel
value depends on the unit associated with the measure of every channel as follows:
Range Unit Resolution Format
Channel OFF - - always reads as 0
mV range #1 mV 2 µV LSB is equal to 1 µV (e.g. 12425 = 12.425 mV)
mV range #2 mV 10 µV LSB is equal to 10 µV (e.g. 6532 = 65.32 mV)
Ohm range Ω 0.1 Ω LSB is equal to 0.1 Ω (e.g. 2851 = 285.1 Ω)
Thermocouples °C 0.1 °C LSB is equal to 0.1 °C (e.g. 12425 = 1242.5 °C)
Thermoresistances °C 0.1 °C LSB is equal to 0.1 °C (e.g. 7654 = 765.4 °C)
Compensator °C 0.1 °C LSB is equal to 0.1 °C (e.g. 1242 = 124.2 °C)

Over range, under range and burnout conditions return the following values depending on sensor configuration word
(see Section [Link]):
Condition No burnout, burnout upscale or downscale Coded burnout
Under range lower limit - 1 32000 (0x7D00)
Over range higher limit + 1 32001 (0x7D01)
Burnout down scale lower limit - 1 32002 (0x7D02)
Burnout up scale higher limit + 1 32003 (0x7D03)

[Link] Digital input data registers

Digital inputs data formatting uses a 16 bit word to represent the status of 8 discrete inputs, including line fault
information. Every channel data word therefore represents a set of inputs as in the following table:
Data Address Inputs
Slave Base Address + 0x00 01 to 08
Slave Base Address + 0x01 09 to 16
Slave Base Address + 0x02 17 to 24
Slave Base Address + 0x03 25 to 32

The input information is constituted by 2 bits: a OFF/ON value and a fault value, as follows:
OFF/ON bit Status Bit Input Condition
0 0 OFF status
1 0 ON status
0 1 line opened (fault)
1 1 line shorted (fault)

The bit organization within a data word is the following (word of channel 1 shown):
Bit 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
OFF/ON bit of input 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Status bit of input 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

Note 2: The slave required configuration contains the system’s topology as required by the host;
the real configuration, instead, contains the actual implementation of slaves: more precisely, the real configuration is
managed by the system and can only be read by the user/host; during normal operation the two values should be
coincident. A difference between the two indicates that the gateway has detected that connected units topology differs
from the desired one. This may happen when a unit is added or removed.

12 Hardware and Software installation

This section contains suggestions and information for a proper installation of the equipments, part of the D2000M
multiplexer system.
An overview on the installation of the SWC2090 software for system configuration is also present.

12.1 Hardware Installation

Before starting the installation it is recommended to prepare a preliminary topology of the system, including field
equipments or contact repeaters to be installed in the future. Contact repeaters do not require special consideration for
safety, while field device connections must comply with the regulatory requirements.
The connection between field units and the gateway must be carried out according regulatory requirements
(e.g. IEC 60079-27).
Note: it is highly recommended, when using redundant field communication lines, that they are routed along different
paths, in order to improve reliability by reducing the probability of simultaneous breakages.
A laboratory trial test in Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations can be performed using a common wiring cable to
connect field units, without particular requirements, given that the global distance between units is kept lower than
30 meters.

12.1.1 Field Units Addressing

Field Units D2010M and D2030M need address setting for proper operation.
Each unit must be assigned with a unique address in the range of 1 to 4. This is done via an internal DIP-switch.
Remove the cover by unscrewing the four screws on the top to access the switch.
The setting of the DIP-switch must be done according to the following table:

Address Unit Switch 1 Switch 2 Switch 3 Switch 4

0 1 OFF OFF OFF OFF
1 2 ON OFF OFF OFF
2 3 OFF ON OFF OFF
3 4 ON ON OFF OFF

Note 1: Do not assign the same address to more than one slave unit in the same system.
Note 2: If the unit is located in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations, this operation should be done after having
disconnected both communication lines and without removing the earthing connection of the cover.

12.1.2 D2050M Installation

The D2050M must be installed in Safe Area/Non Hazardous Locations; it requires a 24 Vdc supply; the service serial
port has a 9 pole Sub D male connector. Modbus lines are accessible via two 3 pole screw connectors providing the
two line poles and the screen terminal. For reliability the lines should be routed along different paths.
Line termination on the gateway side is built in the D2050M.
The two Intrinsically Safe field lines must comply with the requirements of the FISCO standard in order to maintain
system safety.
When redundant field communication is used, a possible startup sequence, when using the configuration program,
could be the following:
 Configure the D2050M to use the primary line only (menu <Configure> + <D2050M>)
 Verify, using the <Test Status> function, that field devices are ‘seen’ correctly by the D2050M
 Configure the D2050M to use the secondary line only (menu <Configure> + <D2050M>)
 Verify, using the <Test Status> function, that field devices are correctly ‘seen’ by the D2050M
 Now configure the D2050M to use both lines or the smart mode as desired (see Section 5.6.1)

12.1.3 D2010M and D2011M Installation

Analog input acquisition units can be installed in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations following both the
requirements of FISCO standard for the communication cable and the regulatory requirements standard for the
connections of the sensor and the installation of the equipment.
When connecting the communication lines verify the polarity of the cable wires and activate the terminating resistor on
the last unit; refer to the proper section for cabling rules.
When the configuration software is used during startup, the test status function allows the verification of the connection
to the gateway, while the test single channel function allows the verification of the sensor connections.

12.1.4 D2030M Installation

Digital input acquisition units can be installed in Hazardous Area/Hazardous Locations following both the requirements
of FISCO standard for the communication cable and the regulatory requirements standard for the connections of the
sensor and the installation of the equipment.
When connecting the communication lines verify the polarity of the cable wires and activate the terminating resistor on
the last unit, refer to the proper section for cabling rules.
When the configuration software is used during startup the test status function allows the verification of the connection
to the gateway, while the test single channel function allows the verification of the sensor connections.

12.1.5 D2052M and D2053M Installation

Contact repeaters require a nominal 24 Vdc supply. They use a daisy-chain connection topology, starting from the
D2050M. This connection is performed using a 10 pole flat cable. Output connections are done using the screw
terminal blocks.
For proper operation the correct mapping of the units must be done, using the configuration software to assign every
repeater to its in-field data source (D2030M).

12.2 Software Installation

12.2.1 Checking PC system minimum requirements
The following minimum requirements apply to the machine on which the SWC2090 will be installed:

 Instruction Manual
D2000M Multiplexer System

 When the main window appears a synoptic of a default configuration will be displayed, and the editing functions
of the software are available.
 To connect a D2050M gateway the serial port setup procedure must be performed:
 Install the cable from the PC COM port to the D2050M 9 pole connector.
 Enter the <Settings> menu and then the < Serial Port Setup>: two messages indicating that the COM ports for
serial and modbus are not available will be prompted, this because no setup was performed.
 Select a valid COM port for serial RS-232 port (drop-down list on the top).
 Using the <Test RS232 Serial> button, verify the connection.
Note: the communication must operate without additional settings; if this doesn’t happen verify that the selected COM
port connector is correct and the quality on the interconnection cable.
Note: refer to 13.6.2 for the Test Status function that can be useful for initial setup.
 Enter the menu <File> then <Read configuration from D2050M> and verify if the configuration is transferred
correctly from the gateway (this is indicated by the odometer on the bottom right of the status line and
terminates correctly if no error messages are reported).
The serial port is now operating and the configuration software runs correctly.

If the modbus connection must be implemented proceed as follows:

 Prepare the installation as described in the following section.
 Enter the menu <File> then <Read configuration from D2050M> and copy the configuration from the D2050M.
 Enter the gateway setup function by using the menu <Configure> and <D2050M>.
 Set the address, baud rate and format for the communication.
 Enter the menu <File> then <Write configuration to D2050M> and update the gateway configuration.
 Enter the <Settings> menu and then the < Serial Port Setup>: a message indicating that the COM port for
modbus is not available will be prompted; this happens because no setup was performed.
 Select a valid COM port for modbus port (bottom drop-down list).
 Using the <Test Modbus> button, verify the connection.
Note: the communication must operate without additional settings, if this doesn’t happen verify the selected COM port
connector and the quality on the interconnection cable.

12.3 RS-485 Modbus Line Installation

The modbus line is a standard RS-485 communication type and must be connected according to the RS-485
specifications: the cable must have a 100 Ω nominal impedance and must be terminated at both ends with a 100 Ω
resistor; care must be exercised for the proper polarity of all units connected to the bus, additionally all equipments
must operate at the same baud rate and with the same parity (if used).
The settings of the D2050M are modifiable by the configuration software and retained in the EEPROM, while the
terminating resistor can be activated by the switches on the board (accessible removing the cover).
The two RX and TX LEDs monitor line activity and help the user during startup or maintenance.

12.3.1 Using modbus with the configuration program

When a monitoring of the modbus connection is done by the PC configuration software, an RS-232 to RS-485
translator is required (e.g. D1061S barrier).
In this case the connection on the RS-485 side must comply with the indication of the previous section, while the
connections on the RS-232 side must comply with the requirements of the PC serial port or the requirements of the
adapter when an USB to RS-232 converter is used.
Typically the user should set the correct baud rate and parity of the converter according to master and slave
parameters.

13.2 Offline System Configuration

The offline mode is typically used when a system is not physically available and it allows the preparation or
modification of configurations using file read/write functions.
The configuration used for editing can be loaded from or saved to file: saved configurations can be later written to a
connected multiplexer.
Detailed editing functions are described in the proper section of this document.

13.3 Online System Configuration

The online mode is used when the PC is connected to the D2050M and it allows the preparation or modification of
configurations using both file read/write and gateway read/write functions.
The configuration used for editing can be loaded from file or read from gateway and saved to file or written to gateway
choosing the corresponding items from the File menu.
Detailed editing functions are described in the following section of this document.

13.4 RS-232 serial and RS-485 modbus transmission protocols

The D2050M Gateway may be operated using the following protocols:
 RS-232 Serial Line
 RS-485 Modbus Line
Commands and instructions for both protocols are specified in this manual (Sections 10 and 11).

The SWC2090 software implements RS-232 serial commands able to acquire data from the gateway and write
configuration parameters to it.
A limited set of modbus commands is also implemented to allow the reading of channel values (Global System Test).
These commands are given by the PC to an RS-232/RS-485 translator (e.g. G.M. International D1061S module) which
is connected to the modbus line of the gateway.
The configuration of the gateway via modbus line, can be allowed or denied by the user through the dedicated
parameter in the System Parameters (see 13.5.1).

activation of the editing window is done by double clicking on the corresponding module, or through the Configure
menu.

13.5.1 Configuring the D2050M gateway

Gateway parameters allow the selection of the following:

 D2050M Unit Main Tag (16 alphanumeric chars);

 Field Connection topology:
 Use Line # 1
 Use Line # 2
 Use both lines: The gateway switches between line 1 and line 2 at regular intervals.
 Use both lines in Smart Mode: The gateway switches between line 1 and line 2; if one of the two lines
experiences a deterioration in communication quality, the gateway switches to the other line and stops line
swapping. Normal operation is resumed rebooting the system or issuing a software command.
This command can be found in the Test Status function (see 13.6.2)
 Power line frequency: (50Hz or 60Hz);
 Number of Repeaters;
 Modbus communication parameters.
 Modbus address
 Modbus Baud rate
 Modbus Format
 Configuration via Modbus: the system administrator can allow or deny the configuration of the system via
modbus Line.

Note: as stated in 13.4, the SWC2090 is able to configure the D2050M only via RS-232 serial line.

options are available:
 Tag: channel identification tag, up to 16 characters long;
 Channel status:
 Off: channel is disabled;
 Active with Fault : fault detection is active and channel status will show open or short circuits.
Note: use of voltage free electrical contacts with fault detection enabled requires, near the switch at the end of
the line, a 1 KΩ series connected resistor and a 10 KΩ in parallel connected resistor to allow the fault
detection circuit to distinguish between a condition of contact close/open and a line open/short circuit fault.

 Active without Fault: line monitoring is deactivated.

 Scan time: indicates the amount of time (from 1 to 35 ms) for which the channel is supplied before acquisition.

Note: changes done to the configuration of the system modules become operative only after being saved and written
into the gateway: this is accomplished choosing Write Configuration to Gateway from the File menu.

13.5.4 Configuring Contact/Proximity repeaters D2052/D2053M

This window allows the assignment of a repeater to the desired digital input module.
In order for a D2052/D2053M repeater to be correctly configured, the assigned digital input D2030M must be
activated.
Additional repeaters may be added through the D2050M configuration window.
Note: changes done to the configuration of the system modules become operative only after being saved and written
into the gateway: this is accomplished choosing Write Configuration to Gateway from the File menu.

Test functions are provided to verify:
 single channel setting and operation via serial RS-232;
 system status and communication diagnostic;
 global system monitoring via serial RS-232 or modbus RS-485;

13.6.1 Single channel setting and operation via serial RS-232

This function allows ‘on the fly’ modification and testing of a single channel of a slave unit.
The purpose is to help the user to operate with the D2000M Multiplexer system, allowing him to change the
configuration of an analog or digital channel and verify their operation immediately.
The function is activated by choosing Test Single Channel from the Test menu.

The Single Channel Test panel shows:

 information on chosen slave model:

 Programmed type: model that was configured by the user in that position;
 Real type: model that is actually present in that position.
 Note: Programmed and Real type must be the same in order to proceed with the Single Channel testing.
In case these two conditions differ, the user has the possibility to temporarily force them to be equal.
 Single Channel Configuration Parameters:
 Channel: number of the channel to test;
 Tag: tag name;
 Configuration Parameters: depending on the type of slave;
 Channel Value: corresponds to the input value of the channel.

Note 1: if the light is blinking in yellow, the channel is being acquired.

Note 2: when the function ends the initial configuration of the channel is restored to avoid any interference with the
configuration activity outside of the testing window.

13.6.2 System status and communication diagnostic

This function is activated choosing the Test Status selection of the Test menu.

Values located close to the communication lines indicate the percentage of good transactions between gateway and
single slave unit (e.g. 100 % indicates optimal communication).
On the right, detected slaves are shown as in the ‘Real Configuration’.
The Clear Line Override button is enabled whenever the ‘Use both lines in Smart Mode’ setting is chosen; by clicking
the button, normal operation (line swapping) is resumed after detection of a line malfunction.

13.6.3 Global system monitoring via serial RS-232 or modbus RS-485

This function is activated choosing the Test Global System with Serial or Test Global System with Modbus selections
of the Test menu. The two choices are equivalent as operation but use different physical supports for communication:
the serial RS-232 or the RS-485.
Relevant differences between the two modes are the unavailability of tag information while using modbus and the
lower polling speed of RS-232.
When the function is activated, a full screen window will appear.
The screen is divided into 4 main frames containing information on slave units and a bottom frame for acquisition
control as in figure below.

Each slave frame’s appearance changes depending on the type of slave configured and on the field unit actually
installed.
To start acquisition press the Start button. The bottom status line indicates slave polling status.
Note: PC acquisition timing is different from internal multiplexer scan time.
