HOPF 7515 communication protocol communicates with the card Mains
Voltage Analysis Board 7515, which is an optional part of GPS system HOPF
System 7001. The card 7515 includes the system for measuring and monitoring of
the network frequency (between 45 and 65 Hz). The communication is simplex. Data
are sent via serial line. These data are sent:
- GPS system time
- network time
- the difference between system and network time
- network frequency
- system time and GPS date (once per minute)
Communication line configuration
- Communication line category: Serial, SerialOverUDP Device Redundant.
- The parameters of SerialOverUDP Device Redundant line are described
here.
Note: You can configure IP address and port of
backup
device
and use the redundant connection of two HOPF servers.
- The parameters of serial line:
- Baud rate: 9600 Baud
- Parity: None (none, otherwise according to the setting of the
card 7515)
- Number of data bits: 8
- Handshaking: none
- The defined parameters are standard. They may be changed by DIP switches
on the card 7515).
- Card 7515 directly supports the output to a serial port, or you can use RS422
interface together with RS244/RS232 converter.
Communication station configuration
- The communication protocol HOPF 7515 Mains Voltage Analysis Board (the protocol
is described in the instructions of HOPF
Large Scale Display 4985).
- The address of station must be 0.
Station protocol parameters
Non
I/O tag configuration
I/O tag types: Ai, Ci, TiA, TiR, TxtI.
You can configure the following I/O tags:
Table 1
| Address |
Type |
Meaning |
| 0 |
all |
A system time that is sent in the format hh:mm:ss. Depending on
I/O tag type, it contains:
- Ai, Ci - system time which is converted into seconds (hh*3600 + mm*60 + ss)
- TiA - system time which also contains a current day, month and
year
- TiR - system time as interval
- TxtI - system time as received text
|
| 1 |
all |
Network time that is sent in the format hh:mm:ss. This time is
calculated from the network frequency (if the frequency is
optimal, i.e. 50Hz or 60 Hz, network time is equal to the system one).
There are the same rules for both the system time and network time. |
| 2 |
TiR,TxtI |
Difference between the system time and network one. |
| 3 |
Ai,Ci,TxtI |
Network frequency in Hz. Depending on I/O tag type, it contains:
Ai - frequency as a decimal number (e.g. 49.998)
Ci - frequency which is multiplied by 1000 as an
integral number (e.g. 49998)
TxtI - frequency in the format xx,xxx Hz (e.g. 49,998 Hz)
|
| 7 |
TiA,TxtI |
System time and date that are sent once a minute. Depending on
I/O tag type, it contains:
TiA - time and date
TxtI - a received text in the format SWhhmmssDDMMRRXxyy:
- S - status
- W - day of a week
- hh - hour
- mm - minute
- ss - second
- DD - day of a month
- MM - month
- RR - year
- Xxyy - hours (Xx) and minutes (yy) of time difference ( max. +/-12:59 )
between the sending time and UTC. Bit 4
(in tens of hours (X)) indicates a sign. If it is set, a
local time overtakes UTC by the defined time difference, e.g.
8130
-> local time at 1:30 a.m. overtakes UTC, 0300
-> local time is 3 hours behind UTC.
Meaning of the bit status S:
- bit 1: if 1, announcement hour (the change of winter/summer
time will come next)
- bit 2: if 1, summer time
- bit 3: if 1, announcement second
- bit 4: if 1, the time is obtained from GPS; if 0, the time
is obtained from an internal source
