PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Reference Register Content Description 6014 Number of responses - Port 2 Contains the total number of messages sent out of the port. 6015 Number of errors sent - Port 2 Contains the total number of message errors sent out the port. 6016 Number of errors received Port 2 Contains the total number of message errors received on the port.
Reference PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Command Command Description ADC Reference Force Report - 5 This command returns hardcoded values to the host for one ADC point. The following values are returned for the -90%, 0% and 90% respectively, 205, 2048, and 3890. Indication Change Report - 6 This command returns the status and memory bit values for the indication points that have had a change since the last host request.
PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Reference Command Command Description Accumulator Change Report - 12 This command is implemented in the module per the protocol specification. Up to 50 accumulators are supported by the module. This command returns the last frozen value for each accumulator if the freeze flag is set. Use Function 26 to set the freeze flag. The freeze flag is reset by this function.
Reference 8.6 PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Command Command Description Analog Group Defines - 35 This command is implemented per the protocol specification. Up to 300 analog values are supported by the module. Accumulator Preset - 36 This command is implemented in the module per the protocol specification. Up to 50 preset values are supported by the module. The RTU presets the running values of selected accumulators to the specified 16 bit values.
PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Reference SHR: Short Response flag is set if the message does not contain any data blocks. RTU Address: The RTU address specifies the receiving RTU for the message. There is one byte for the RTU address allowing the master station to address 255 distinctive RTU's. An address of 0 is used for a broadcast message. 8.6.
Reference PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module 8.6.4 RTU Message Header 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 SHR CON FRZ IND SCH SLG 0 0 RTU ADDRESS The RTU Message Header consisted of two characters. The first character contains several RTU flags. The second character contains the address of the responding RTU. SHR: Short Response flag is set if the Message does not contain any Data Block.
PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Reference L: The Last Block Mark is always set to one in the last Data Block of the messages, else it is reset to 0. Function Code: The function code is a 7 bit field that defines the purpose of the message. The RTU generally echoes the function code sent by the Master, except when the RTU cannot perform the requested function due to an error, timeout, bad parameter, or some other condition that is not logical to the RTU.
Reference 8.7.5 PTQ-LNG ♦ Quantum / Unity Platform Landis & Gyr Telegyr Interface Module Does the module work in a remote rack? The module is designed to be located in the chassis with the PLC and will not operate in a remote chassis. If your application requires remote placement of the communication device you should investigate the other members of the ProLinx family such as the 4202-MNET-DFCM.
