Copyright © 2018 QEI Status Point Inputs 5

4 Status Point Inputs

4.1 General

The MicroPAQ-940P includes 8 status connections, arranged as two groups of four.

Each group of four status inputs has a separate single common connection, and can be wired as either negative keyed or positive keyed (bi-polarity). Both common connections can be connected together internally or isolated via 3-pin plug-in jumper J4, (factory default = isolated), or tied together at the terminal blocks (TB4-pin 5 and TB5-pin 5).

The keying voltage can be either 12Vdc or 24Vdc from an isolated power supply. At 12Vdc, keying current is approximately 6 mA nominal, and at 24Vdc, it is 12 mA nominal.

Status point inputs are isolated from the microprocessor logic using opto-couplers and transient suppression components.

Each status point has a corresponding LED. If the LED is ON, then the associated status point is being keyed.

Status connections are made via 5,08mm plug-in terminal blocks. The terminal blocks can accommodate up to 12 AWG wire. However, since the status connections are low current (up to 12mA), it is recommended to use 22 AWG wire for these connections.

4.4 Status LEDs

Each Status point input has a corresponding LED to indicate if the status point is keyed. LEDs are labeled 1 through 8 (DS3 thru DS10), corresponding with the respective status point.


10 Control Point Outputs Copyright © 2018 QEI

5 Control Point Outputs

5.1 General

The MicroPAQ-940P includes 2 control points. Each control point consists of two functions: “Trip” (Off) and “Close” (On). One control point is available at TB6, and the other control point is available at TB7. Each control point can be a “momentary” or “latching” control point.

A momentary control point consists of two momentary relays. Each momentary relay has a single coil to energize that specific relay. There is one relay for a “trip” function, and one relay for a “close” function.

A latching control point consists of a single latching relay, having two coils (reset/set) in the same relay. The “reset” coil in the latching relay is for “trip” functions, and the “set” coil in the latching relay is for “close” functions.

Whether momentary, or latching, each relay consists of a Form 1C contact set (SPDT).

Control point output connections are made via 5,08mm plug-in terminal blocks TB6 and TB7. The terminal blocks can accommodate up to 12 AWG wire. See the Specification section of this guide for relay contact ratings.

6 Analog Input Points

6.1 General

The MicroPAQ-940P includes four analog measurement inputs. Hardware input scaling is +/- 0-1 mA, +/- 4-20 mA, +/- 5Vdc or +/-10Vdc full scale. Input scaling is determined via factory installed precision scaling resistors, and all analog inputs are factory calibrated for accuracy. See specifications and ordering information for additional details.

Input connections are made via an 8-position 5,08mm plug-in terminal block. There are two terminal block connections for each analog input. The terminal block can accommodate up to 12 AWG wire. However, since the analog connections are low current (up to 20mA), it is recommended to use 22 AWG wire for these connections.

Additional scaling and measurement ratios are accomplished via software configuration.

11 Earth Grounding

11.1 Earth Grounding Method

WARNING: the MicroPAQ-940P must be connected to earth ground. Failure to do so will render certain MicroPAQ transient protection circuits inoperative, and may result in damage to the equipment.

Earth grounding is accomplished during installation using one of two methods, depending on MicroPAQ model:

DIN Mount:

Earth ground is connected through the Din Rail Grounding Clip on the left side MicroPAQ DIN bracket. The DIN rail makes connection with the grounding clip when the MicroPAQ is attached to the DIN rail. A screw located on the PCB (upper left) is used to connect the grounding clip to the PCB. The DIN rail that the MicroPAQ is attached to, must be conductive, and complete a connection to earth ground. After installation of the MicroPAQ, check with a DVM for continuity between the screw head (or quick connect tab J19, below Analog terminal block TB3) at upper left corner of the PCB, and earth ground of the system installation.

Panel Mount:

Connect earth ground to 0.250” quick disconnect tab J19 in the upper left corner of the PCB (below Analog terminal block TB3). After installation of the MicroPAQ, check with a DVM for continuity between the quick disconnect tab J19, and earth ground of the system installation.

32 Test Panel (Maintenance) Copyright © 2018 QEI

15 Test Panel (Maintenance)

15.1 Introduction

The MicroPAQ-940P contains special “test panel” software that the user can access through the front panel USB maintenance port (Port 3, connector J1) or remotely through the Ethernet port (ETH1).

The Test Panel has security features, available over either the standard USB connection or over a remote connection via Ethernet. It can be configured through the QEI ConfigWiz 2 software to require a user name / password or support encryption over the Ethernet connection. See the appropriate ConfigWiz 2 addendum for further information.

Prior to placing a MicroPAQ into operation, the test panel can be used as a post-installation checkout tool, to ascertain that the MicroPAQ is correctly wired to the field devices. When used for this purpose, the test panel permits off-line (no connection with the Master Subsystem) testing of status, analog, accumulator (pulse count), and control points.

The test panel can also serve as a troubleshooting aid for the Remote Subsystem hardware and/or firmware.

The test panel is designed to be used by qualified service personnel having a background in digital telemetry and SCADA systems, and must be familiar with the MicroPAQ, and its intended use as a part of the overall system installation.

As a pre-requisite the operator should have a working knowledge of PCs and a computer and/or have thoroughly reviewed all documentation provided by the original PC Laptop computer manufacturer.

15.2 Requirements

The following equipment is required for using the test panel commands:

A laptop computer (PC) having a USB port (for local connection) or 100BaseT ethernet port.

Terminal emulation software such as Windows XP’s “HyperTerminal”, or equivalent (for local configuration.)

USB type A-B cable (for local connection.)

A server point map list is also required. The list indicates the function of each data point. A server point map is generated by QEI’s “ConfigWiz 2” configuration software.

15.7 Reading Analog Values (RA)

Up to five (5) analog points can be selected and displayed at a time. To enter the desired analog points, proceed as follows:

Type in RA (space) and the number or numbers of analog points, not necessarily in any order. Each number must be followed by a space. Points begin with point number 0 (zero). The first four points (0 thru 3) are the measured Analogs. The fifth point (point 4) is an internal temperature sensor. The values are displayed as decimal integers. The displayed values are continuously updated.

Example entry: RA 0 1 2 3 Example display: +25116 +0136 -12000 +0050



NOTES

Analog points will be displayed as 16-bit values (default). To display points as 12-bit values, type 12bit <enter> before using the RA command. To switch back to 16-bit values, type 16bit <enter>.

For 1 milliampere transducers, 2047 (12-bit) or 32767 (16-bit) represents full scale or 1 milliampere. 0 represents zero scale or zero milliampere. For 4-20 milliampere transducers, 2047 (12-bit) or 32767 (16-bit) represents full scale or 20 milliamperes. 409 (12-bit) or 6544 (16-bit) represents zero scale or 4 milliamperes.

If an analog point is not responding to interrogation by the MicroPAQ, the word FAIL will be shown instead of the value for all points associated with that panel. If the point entered is not defined or does not exist, the word INVALID DATA will be shown.

When additional analog points are to be examined, press the ENTER key, the analog points previously entered will scroll upwards to the next line on the display and all values will be frozen (not updated). Then, repeat step 1. by entering RA (space) and the desired analog point numbers. This procedure can be continued to examine every analog point in the RTU, if desired.

To monitor accumulators with timing, PDMs and reference analogs, perform step 1. by entering RA (space) and the specific point numbers which correspond to either the accumulator timing, PDMs or reference analogs. All displayed values are in decimal format.

Example Type PRX 1 <enter>.

The Test Panel will display the messages between the Master and MicroPAQ Port 1 in hexadecimal format:



01<a84b00a6 01>25a24b00d4060000d03600000ba56000098760000d496000dcb6000090d600 01>f60000fe160100a2360100ee56d146c07601008096010088b60100c4d60100

01<a80b0098 01>01aa0b0082 “01” indicates port number 1 “<” indicates messages received by the MicroPAQ from the Master. “>” indicates messages sent from the MicroPAQ to the Master.

The meaning of the data is protocol dependent.

15.12 Displaying Dip Switch States (DIP)

A test panel command is available for examining the state of the 3 dip switches on the MicroPAQ. Type DIP <enter> from the test panel. Dip switches are displayed in the order that they appear on the front panel. Example: DIP <enter> Display:

00000000 00000001

15.13 Displaying the Software Version (VER)

To display the version of software residing in the MicroPAQ, type VER <enter>. Example VER <enter> Display:

QEI MicroPAQ-940P Link:80-015000-001 Rev. A 5/8/18 Chksum: 6320d4ca

15.14 TP Command

This command invokes a software monitor, which is useful in diagnosing different types of problems.

Example Type TP 15 <enter> Display Software Monitor running at level 15

The MicroPAQ will print error and informational messages (if any) on the test panel, while in operation.



15.15 SOE Command

This command allows saved SOE events to be viewed.

SOE <[point number]> <count> SOE events are displayed most recent first, in the following format:

soe 52 events available (in Ram) 11/10/2005 13:32:29.904 [20] Status4 OFF 11/10/2005 13:32:29.904 [19] Status3 OFF 11/10/2005 13:32:29.904 [18] Status2 OFF 11/10/2005 13:32:29.495 [2] Panel0Pt2 OFF 11/10/2005 13:32:29.495 [1] Panel0Pt1 OFF 11/10/2005 13:32:29.495 [0] Panel0Pt0(status0) OFF

The header indicates how many events are available, and also whether the events are stored in RAM or in BBRam (Events are stored in BBRam if battery-backed memory is available). Each entry contains:

The date of the SOE event The time of the SOE event (with milliseconds) The point number, in square brackets The point description The state (either ON or OFF as appropriate).

There are several forms of this command, as follows:

15.15.1 SOE Just entering SOE will cause all saved SOE events to be displayed on the test-panel, most-recent first. The listing can be terminated at any point by hitting any key.

15.15.2 SOE [point-number] This form of the command will only display SOE events from the specified status point number. You must include the square brackets! Therefore, the command soe [16] will display all SOE events on Status Point 16.

15.15.3 SOE count This form of the SOE command will display the most recent <count> events. For example, soe 10 will display the 10 most recent SOE events



These two forms can be combined, for example: soe [1] 3 will display the 3 most recent SOE events on point 1. If the SOE Logger is not configured, or not available in the link being run in the RTU, the SOE command will display an error message and exit.

15.16 12BIT/16BIT Commands

These commands determine whether analog points (RA command) are read as 12 or 16 bit values. If 12 bit values are selected, the fill scale reading will be +/-2047. If 16 bit values are selected, the full scale reading is +/-32767.
