- Category of communication line: Serial, MOXA IP Serial Library
- Parameters of the serial line:
- Baud rate: 19200 Baud
- Parity: optional
Note: Parity MARK (sending the device address) and SPACE (all others) are set during transmission, so the parity setting is not important. - Handshaking: none
Note: communication on the Serial line was tested on computer serial port, virtual serial port corresponding to MOXA NPort device, and virtual serial port corresponding to Serial/USB converter USB-COM GemBird.
Communication on MOXA IP Serial Library line was tested through the use of MOXA NPort 5450I.

- Communication protocol: Hivus Controller
- Station address: 1 Byte.
Address 0 is "broadcast" (each device responses to it, but only on reading by 02h function). I/O tag - type 105 (logger number) is used to detect the real address of the device.
Addresses 1-255 represents the common addresses of devices (04h function is used to read data). - Time parameters - recommended polling period is 1 min (to avoid overloading the processor of the control unit by very frequent communication).

Keyword | Full name | Description | Unit | Default value | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Debug Input | Value 1 activates the listing of information about received values of I/O tags in the trace file of the line in the format: In I/Otag_name = value | - | 2 | ||||||
| Debug Output | Value 1 activates the listing of information about written values of I/O tags in the trace file of the line in the format: Out I/Otag_name = value | - | 2 | ||||||
| Read After Write | If the parameter is True, the writing of value (by 05h function) is followed by reading. Note: Reading does not relate to date and time settings that are done by 01h the protocol function 01h (see I/O tag 121). | - | False |

- T=type - I/O tags without index
- T=type;I=index - I/O tags with index (channels and signalization of failures on desoster)
- T=type;I=index;J=index; - I/O tag contains raw data of protocol with address 100
The header, which is read from the control unit by the KOM process, contains the information that is mapped into I/O tags without an index (e.g. moto hours worked, number of engaged channels, type of control unit), information about channels and signalization of failures on desosters.
There can be configured 0 up to 8 channels. Each channel is defined by characteristics (1-15, see table below), value, upper/lower limit (something like upper/lower limit in D2000). The channels can be addressed in two ways:
- consecutive number 1-8:
- order within channels with particular characteristics. Instantaneous value of i-th measurements with characteristic t is addressed by T=t, I=i.
For example, instantaneous value of third measurement of type 1 [temperature] is defined by T=1, I=3 no matter on which channel this temperature occurs.
Signalization of failures on desoster enables to read the statuses of desoster 1..10 that are connected to concentrator 1 (T=101) or concentrator 2 (T=102).
These I/O tags can be configured:

| Ai, Ci, Di | Reading of instantaneous value of measurement of typ type, which is index-th in order. Index can be from range 1..8. Type can be from range 1..15 according to table below:
Example of address: T=8;I=1 - I/O tag will contain the instantaneous value of flow velocity that is first in order. If type 8 (flow velocity) is not configured on any of channels 1..8, I/O tag value will be invalid. Note: Instantaneous value of the channel can have a flag indicating the unconnected sensor. This flag is mapped to an attribute of "WEAK" value in D2000. If the instantaneous value from the example mentioned above should have a flag indicating the unconnected sensor, it should be probably 0 with an attribute "WEAK". | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ai, Ci, Di | Reading of instantaneous value of channel with index. The index can be from range 1..8. Example of address: T=16;I=2 - I/O tag will contain the instantaneous value of channel 2. Note: Instantaneous value of the channel can have a flag indicating the unconnected sensor. This flag is mapped to an attribute of "WEAK" value in D2000. If the instantaneous value from the example mentioned above should have a flag indicating the unconnected sensor, it should be probably 0 with an attribute "WEAK". | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ai, Ci | Reading of channel characteristics with index. The index can be from range 1..8. Example of address: T=17;I=2 - I/O tag will contain the characteristics of channel 2. Note: The characteristics can be from range 1..15 with the meaning stated in the table or invalid if no sensor is connected to the channel. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ai, Ci | Reading of upper limit of the channel with index. The index can be from interval 1..8. Example of address: T=18;I=2 - I/O tag will contain the upper limit of channel 2. Note: The value is invalid if no sensor is connected to the channel. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ai, Ci | Reading of lower limit of the channel with index. The index can be from interval 1..8. Example of address: T=19;I=2 - I/O tag will contain the lower limit of channel 2. Note: The value is invalid if no sensor is connected to the channel. |

| TxtI | Reading the raw data from the protocol header into the text I/O tag. "I" and "J" indicates the beginning and end byte (1-128), and this condition must be valid: I<=J. For example I/O tag with address T=100;I=113;J=128 (bytes 113-128 from header) contains a comment from printer (it is the same as I/O tag T=110). For example I/O tag with address T=100;I=27;J=29 (bytes 27-29 from the header) contains the type of device (it is the same as I/O tag T=106 ). Note: These I/O tags are intended for specialists and for future extension of the protocol. |

| Ai, Ci, Di | Reading of signalization of device failure with an index that is connected to concentrator No. 1 (if T=101) or concentrator No. 2 (if T=102). If the index is from the range 1..10, the I/O tag value will contain the information about the failure on a particular desoster (according to the value 0/1, False/True). If index=0, the I/O tag will contain the information about all 10 desosters as integer (status of desoster 1 in 1. bit up to desoster 10 in 10. bit) Example of address: T=101;I=2 - the I/O tag will read the failure signal of desoster 2 that connected with concentrator 1. Note: If the information in the protocol contains a bit, which signalizes "concentrator is not connected", the value of the I/O tag will be Invalid. |

| TxtI, TxtO | 16-sign string - upper and lower limits for the printer. Also, the writing of value is supported (the protocol function 05h). Note: Presently, this string contains only a protocol-encoded setpoint for controlling ozone and threshold of ozone indication, therefore it is recommended to read and write values by I/O tags T=107 and T=108. | ||||||
| TxtI, TxtO | 16-sign string - comment of print. Also the , the writing of value writing is supported (the protocol function of protocol 05h). Note: This I/O tag is also used to set a control band, blocking sensor, signalization, language, to switch manual/automatic mode, to set parameters of modes, etc. For more information, see the documentation for communication protocol. | ||||||
| TxtO | Writes values to control unit (by protocol function 01h). Supported values:
| ||||||
T=122 | TxtI, TxtO | Writes 32-bytes of limit values into the control unit (by the protocol function 05h). Note: The first 16 bytes is equal to the I/O tag with address 109, the other 16 bytes are equal to the I/O tag with address 110. It is recommended to read and write values by I/O tags T=107, T=108, and T=110. |
