DONGA Hitech Smart RPPS communication driver¡¯s read schedule 

Read schedule setting parameters are as follows:

1) Station – Controller station number = 0 ~ 15.

2) Read Command – Command = CURR, SET. ( Refer to <Table 1> )

3) Read Start Address 0 ~ 9 setp number when 'SET' read command, other command = Don't care.

4) Save start address for Communication Server – Saving start address of Communication Server.

5) Read Size – fixed to 1.

<Table 2> Data saving address and contents of SET read command

 DONGA Hitech Smart RPPS communication driver store the same data in WORD, DWORD, FLOAT memory, but the data format are different.

If you click the icon  in protocol option part, you can see the dialogue box such as <Figure 2>. you can also set read schedule by using this part. 

<Figure 2> Example of DONGA Hitech Smart RPPS communication driver¡¯s Option dialogue box

   You can set read schedule by using , , button and listbox of <Figure 2>. 

<Figure 3> Example of DONGA Hitech Smart RPPS communication driver¡¯s read schedule Add/Edit dialogue box

When you click Add button or Edit button in dialogue box of <Figure 2>, dialogue box of <Figure 3> is shown.

  

2. Writing settings

You can write the setting value by using write settings.

 

Bit Write

Bit write and word write have the same setting parameters except output value( 0 or 1 ).

 

Word Write

Word write setting parameters are as follows:

1)  PORT                   Port no. (0 ~ 255)

2)  STATION             Controller station number = 0 ~ 15.

3)  ADDRESS           Write address.( decimal )

STATUS write command : 0 , 1, 2, 10, 30, 31, ( Refer to <Table 3> )

SET write command : 0 ~ 9 setting type selection. ( Refer to <Table 4> )

4)  Extra1                   Write command = STATUS - write of register status, SET - write of setting value.

5)  Extra2                   Step number when SET write command.

 

<Table 3> is output value and contents of STATUS write command according to address,  <Table 4> is output value and contents of SET write command according to address.

Address Contents Output value
0 ON/Pause of rectifier ON(1) = ON,      OFF(0) = Pause
1 Setting of operation mode ON(1) = CC mode, OFF(0) = CV mode
2  High/Low setting of CC mode ON(1) = HIGH,    OFF(0) = LOW
10 Setting of end step number 0 ~ 9 end step number
30 Ah Reset ON(1) = Ah Reset, OFF(0) = don't use
31 Stop ON(1) = Stop,     OFF(0) = don't use
<Table 3> Output value and contents of STATUS write command according to address
Address Contents Output value
0 Setting time of step operation 0 ~ 999999 (second unit)
1 Pos-Time 1 ~ 9999 (ms unit, Pos-Time)
2 Neg-Time 0 ~ 9999 (ms unit, Neg-Time)
3 Off-Time 0 ~ 9999 (ms unit, Off-Time)
4 Pos-Volt 0 ~ 9999 (mA unit, Pos-Volt)
5 Neg-Volt 0 ~ 9999 (mA unit, Neg-Volt)
6 Pos-High-Curr 0 ~ 9999 (mA unit, Pos-High-Curr)
7 Neg-High-Curr 0 ~ 9999 (mA unit, Neg-High-Curr)
8 Pos-Low-Curr 0 ~ 100 (mA unit, Pos-Low-Curr)
9 Neg-Low-Curr 0 ~ 100 (mA unit, Neg-Low-Curr)
