Overview
In a station for the S7-CPU, the new SIPLUS TIM 3V-IE DNP3 communications module V3.0 (TeleControl Interface Module) handles the data traffic with the assigned master system SIMATIC PCS 7 TeleControl V8.0 using the open DNP3 protocol. In addition, the V3.0 module now also supports master and node functionality.
- With the S7-300 housing, the module can be fully integrated into the S7-300 system
- The module has an RS232 interface for the connection of an external modem for data transmission via a conventional WAN or the connection of a Modbus RTU slave to an S7-300 system
- The RJ45 port is used for data transmission via IP-based networks
Note:
SIPLUS extreme products are based on SIMATIC standard products. The contents listed here were adopted from the respective standard products. SIPLUS extreme-specific information was added.
Benefits
- Flexible option for connection to any conventional or IP-based WAN
- Connection to DNP3 master systems from third-party vendors is possible by using the open protocol DNP3
- Saving of traveling and maintenance costs due to cost-effective remote programming, diagnostics, control and monitoring via the Internet
- Reduction in time and costs thanks to quick and user-friendly configuration of connections and data to be transferred with the SINAUT configuration software and block library
- Reliable back-up of important data:
Storage of the DNP3 data points (max. 64 000 in the case of a master), including time stamp on the TIM if the communication path is faulty or a partner has failed
Application
- Low-cost automation of water/wastewater networks with both complex and simple structures
- Control and monitoring of energy distribution systems and supply stations, such as oil, gas or district heating networks
- Preventive maintenance (condition monitoring) of globally distributed systems
- Connection of plants with basic or high-level security and availability requirements
- Use in hybrid networks with dial-up, wireless, Ethernet or Internet communications
Design
The TIM 3V-IE DNP3 offers all the advantages of the SIMATIC S7-300 design:
- Compact design with S7-300 format
- 9-pin sub-D connectors with an RS232 interface for connection to a conventional WAN via an appropriate modem
- RJ45 socket for connection to Industrial Ethernet or an IP-based network;
industrial design with additional retaining collar, for connecting the IE FC RJ45 Plug 180 - 2-pin plug-in terminal strip for connection of the 24 V DC external supply voltage
- Front-panel LEDs for indicating the module status and the communication
- Easy installation;
the TIM 3V-IE DNP3 is mounted on the DIN rail of the S7-300 and connected to adjacent modules by means of the bus connector supplied with the TIM. No slot rules apply. - Can be operated in the expansion rack (ER) in conjunction with the IM 360/361 interface modules
- Can be operated without a fan
- No backup battery or memory module is required
Function
- Data is transmitted using the open DNP3 protocol
- Media redundancy by using physically separated connection paths without data loss at switchover
- Extensive diagnostics functions including the option of logging the sent and received message frames
- Time-of-day synchronization with the assigned DNP3 master system is possible
- Remote programming in the case of IP-based networks
- Modbus RTU Master
- DNP3 Master
- DNP3 nodes; the module operates simultaneously as master and slave and, as a data concentrator, links the RTUs with the control center
- Peer-to-peer communication in the Ethernet-based network between the TIM modules used as DNP3 slave
- Setting of DNP3 event classes (Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3)
- Routing between TIM modules
- Support of analog dialup modems (PSTN dialup)
The TIM 3V-IE DNP3 communications module has its own processor and a RAM for buffering up to 64 000 data points. This prevents any loss of data in the event of a fault on the communication link or the failure of a communication partner.
Diagnostics
The SINAUT diagnostics and service tool of the SINAUT ST7 Engineering Software V5.4 provides comprehensive diagnostic functions, including:
- Operating mode of the TIM module
- Module status of the TIM module
- General diagnostic information
- Diagnostic buffer of the TIM module
- Status of the connections to remote communication partners
- Status and level of the transmit buffer
- TIM frame monitor for recording the frame traffic
Configuration
The SINAUT ST7 engineering software as of V5.4 is used for configuring the TIM 3V-IE DNP3 module. Parameters are assigned with the aid of the SINAUT configuration software in STEP 7 HW Config and STEP 7 Netpro.
