Application Mode

The MultiHop radio operates in either Modbus mode or transparent mode. Use the internal DIP switches to select the mode of operation. All MultiHop radios within a wireless network must be in the same mode.

Modbus mode uses the Modbus protocol for routing packets. In Modbus mode, a routing table is stored in each parent device to optimize the radio

trafﬁc. This allows for point to point communication in a multiple data radio network and

acknowledgement/retry of radio packets. To access a radio's I/O, the radios must be running in Modbus mode. In transparent application mode, all incoming packets are stored, then broadcast to all connected data radios. The data

communication is packet based and not

speciﬁc to any protocol. The application layer is responsible for data integrity. For one to one data radios it is possible to enable broadcast acknowledgement of the data packets to provide better throughput. In transparent mode, there is no access to the radio's I/O.

Baud Rate and Parity

The baud rate (bits per second) is the data transmission rate between the device and whatever it is physically wired to. Set the parity to match the parity of the device you are wired to.

Disable Serial

If the local serial connection is not needed, disable it to reduce the power consumption of a data radio powered from the solar assembly or from batteries. All radio communications remain operational.

Transmit Power Levels/Frame Size

The 900 MHz data radios can be operated at 1 watt (30 dBm) or 0.250 watt (24 dBm). For most models, the default transmit power is 1 watt.

www.bannerengineering.com - Tel: +1.763.544.3164 7

DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave

For 2.4 GHz radios, the transmit power is ﬁxed at 0.065 watt (18 dBm) and DIP switch 5 is used to set the frame timing. The default position (OFF) sets the frame timing to 60 milliseconds. To increase throughput, set the frame timing to 40 milliseconds.

Prior to date code 15341 and radio ﬁrmware version 3.6, the frame timing was 40 ms (OFF) or 20 ms (ON).

3.2 Binding the ISM Radio of a DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave

A DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave (model DXM1x0-S*R2) contains two boards: a MultiHop ISM radio and an I/O base board. Each board is a separate Modbus device.

• The ISM radio is not required to have a Modbus ID because there are no registers to manage.

• The I/O board must have a Modbus ID to access the I/O register data and

To bind the DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave (as either a repeater or slave radio) to its master radio, follow the binding instructions. If the binding instructions are not included in the master radio datasheet, refer to the MultiHop Quick Start Guide (p/n

The ISM radio board's Modbus ID is assigned from the master radio during binding using the master radio's rotary dials or the DXM Controller's LCD Binding menu. For example, if the master's binding number is 25, the DXM Slave ISM radio's Modbus ID is set to 25. To reduce the number of Modbus IDs used, set the ISM radio Modbus ID to 01.

By default, the I/O board's Modbus ID is set to 11. To change the Modbus ID, use the I/O board DIP switches. For applications requiring Modbus IDs outside the range of the DIP switches, write a Modbus ID to a Modbus register on the I/O board.

Use the MultiHop Modbus Slave, only the ISM radio displays on the Network View screen. The Modbus ID of the I/O board is a separate device that is not a part of the radio network. Although the I/O board does not show up in the Network View, it is accessible when using the Register View functions.

4.3 Working with Solar Power

A reliable solar system requires careful planning and monitoring to size the components correctly. The recommendations provided are for the DXM Modbus Slave system as an autonomous system.

Adding extra components increases the power requirements and likely requires increasing the solar system components. Depending upon the geographical location, the size of the solar panel and battery may vary.

4.3.1 Setting the DXM Modbus Slave for Solar Power

By default, the DXM Modbus Slave is set from the factory to charge a backup battery from a line power source. Use the LCD menu on the front of the DXM Modbus Slave to change the charging algorithm to solar power.

Go to System For DXM devices without an LCD, adjust the I/O board Modbus register 6071. Set the register to 0 to select battery

charging from a solar panel, and set to 1 to select battery charging from incoming 12 to 30 V dc supply. Here are a few DXM conﬁguration tips to help minimize the power consumption (may not apply to all models).

• If Ethernet is not being used, save up to 25% of the consumed power by disabling Ethernet. Set DIP switch 1 to the

• Instead of powering external devices all the time, take advantage of the switched power mechanisms to turn off

• Minimize the number of cellular transactions and the amount of data pushed across the cellular modem.

devices when possible.

4.3.2 Solar Components

The components of a solar system include the battery and the solar panel.

Battery

The DXM solar controller is designed to use a 12 V lead acid battery. The characteristics of a solar system require the battery to be of a certain type. There are basically two types of lead acid batteries:

• SLI batteries (Starting Lights Ignition) designed for quick bursts of energy, like starting engines

• Deep Cycle batteries - greater long-term energy delivery. This is the best choice for a solar battery.

Since a solar system charges and discharges daily, a deep cycle battery is the best choice. There are different versions of a lead acid battery: wet cell

Wet cell batteries are the original type of rechargeable battery and come in two styles, serviceable and maintenance free. Wet cell batteries typically require special attention to ventilation as well as periodic maintenance but are the lowest cost. The gel cell and AGM battery are sealed batteries that cost more but store very well and do not tend to sulfate or degrade as easily as a wet cell. Gel or AGM batteries are the safest lead acid batteries you can use.

Battery capacity is a function of the ambient temperature and the rate of discharge. Depending upon the speciﬁc battery, a battery operating at –30 °C can have as much as 40 percent less capacity than a battery operating at 20 °C. Choose enough battery capacity based on your geographical location.

A larger capacity battery typically lasts longer for a given solar application because lead-acid batteries do not like deep cycling (discharging a large percentage of its capacity). Depending upon the battery, a battery discharging only 30 percent of its capacity before recharging will have approximately 1100 charge/discharge cycles. The same battery discharging 50 percent of its capacity will have approximately 500 charge/discharge cycles. Discharging 100 percent leaves the battery with only 200 charge/discharge cycles.

Batteries degrade over time based on discharge/charge cycles and environmental conditions. Always monitor the battery system to obtain the best performance of the solar powered system.

Use this as a guide to the approximate state of charge and in determining when to apply conservation measures.

Solar Panel

Banner solar panels come in two common sizes for the DXM Modbus Slave: 5 Watt and 20 Watt. Both panels are designed to work with the DXM Modbus Slave but provide different charging characteristics. Use the 5 watt panel for light duty operation and use the 20 watt panel when you require greater charging capabilities.

Solar Panel Voltage Current Typical DXM Conﬁgurations

5 Watt 17 V 0.29 A DXM slave controller, ISM radio, I/O base board

20 Watt 21 V 1 A DXM Controller with ISM radio and Cellular modem

Photovoltaic panels are very sensitive to shading. Unlike solar thermal panels, PV solar panels cannot tolerate shading from a branch of a leaﬂess tree or small amounts of snow in the corners of the panel. Because all cells are connected in a series string, the weakest cell will bring down the other cells' power level.

Good quality solar panels will not degrade much from year to year, typically less than 1 percent . Solar Panel Mounting To capture the maximum amount of solar radiation throughout the year, mount a ﬁxed solar panel to optimize the sun's

energy throughout the year. For the northern hemisphere, face the panel true south. For the southern hemisphere, face the panel true north. If you are using a compass to orientate the panels, compensate for the difference between true north and magnetic north. Magnetic declination varies across the globe.

A solar panel's average tilt from horizontal is at an angle equal to the latitude of the site location. For optimum performance, adjust the tilt by plus 15 degrees in the winter or minus 15 degrees in the summer. For a

ﬁxed panel with a consistent power requirement throughout the year, adjust the tilt angle to optimize for the winter months: latitude plus 15 degrees. Although in the summer months the angle may not be the most

efﬁcient, there are more hours of solar energy available.

For sites with snow in the winter months, the increased angle helps to shed snow. A solar panel covered in snow produces little or no power.

4.5 Inputs and Outputs

The I/O base board is a Modbus slave device that communicates using Modbus commands. Refer to the Modbus Registers section for more descriptions of each Modbus register on the DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave.

Synchronous Counters. An isolated input can be programmed to count the input signal transitions. When an input is enabled as a counter, the counter value is stored into two 16-bit Modbus registers for a total count of 32-bits (unsigned). To program an input to capture the edge transition counts, follow

Example: Conﬁgure Input 1 as a Synchronous Counter

on

page 18. The counters are synchronous because the inputs are sampled at a 10 ms clock rate. The input logic does not detect rising

or falling edges, it samples the input every 10 ms to

ﬁnd level changes. The input signals must be high or low for more than 10 ms or the input will not detect transitions. Because most signals are not perfect, a realistic limit for the synchronous counter would be 30 to 40 Hz.

Universal inputs can also be

conﬁgured as a synchronous counter. See the Modbus register map for universal inputs and all the register deﬁnitions. The procedure for creating a synchronous counter is the same as a isolated input with the addition of changing the input type to PNP or NPN.

• 2952 Enable Default Communication Timeout. A “communication timeout" refers to the communication between any Modbus master host and the DXM baseboard. Set this register to 1 to enable the default condition when the host has not communicated with the DXM baseboard for the period of time deﬁned by the Communication Default IO Timeout.

• 2953 Communication Default I/O Timeout (100 ms/Count). This parameter

deﬁnes the host timeout period in 100 millisecond increments. If a host does not communicate within this timeout period, the device outputs are set to the default values.

• 2954 Enable Default on Power Up. Setting this parameter to 1 sends the device outputs to their default condition when the DXM baseboard is powered up. Set to 0 to disable this feature.

Default Output State. The Default Output State parameter represents the default condition of the analog output. When an error condition exists, the outputs are set to this 16-bit user-deﬁned output state. To deﬁne the error conditions for device outputs, refer to the MultiHop default output parameters 2950-2954.

Enable Register Full Scale. Set to 1 to enable a linear range from 0 to 65535 for

speciﬁed input range. For a 4 to 20 mA output, a value of 0 represents 4 mA and 65535 represents 20 mA. Set this parameter to 0 to store readings in unit-speciﬁc data. For example, the register data representing a 15.53 mA reading is 15530. For units of current (0 to 20 mA outputs), values are stored as µA (micro Amps) and voltage values are stored as mV (millivolts).

Hold Last State Enable. Set the Hold Last State to 1 to set the output to its last known value before the error occurred. Set this parameter to 0 to disable the Hold Last State and use the Default Output State setting during an error condition.

Maximum Analog Value. The Maximum Analog Value register stores the maximum allowed analog value. The speciﬁc units of measure apply to the register value. For example, the register may contain 20000, for 20 mA, or for a voltage output the register may contain 8000, for 8 volts.

Minimum Analog Value. The Minimum Analog Value register stores the minimum allowed analog value. The

speciﬁc units of measure apply to register value. For example, the register may contain 4000, for 4 mA, or for a voltage output the register may contain 2000, for 2 volts.

4.5.5 Universal Inputs

The universal inputs can be programmed to accept different types of inputs: discrete NPN/PNP, 0 to 20 mA analog, 0 to 10 V analog, 10k thermistor, potentiometer sense, bridge, and NPN raw fast. Use the DXM Conﬁguration Tool tool to write to the appropriate Modbus registers in the I/O board to

The universal inputs are treated as analog inputs. When the universal inputs are deﬁned as mA, V, or temperature, use Modbus registers to conﬁgure the operational characteristics of the inputs. These parameters are temperature conversion type, enable full scale, threshold and hysteresis. See the Modbus register section for the parameter

When a universal input is conﬁgured as an NPN or PNP input type, it can be enabled to be a synchronous counter. Enable the counter function by setting Modbus register 'Enable Rising' or 'Enable Falling' to 1. See universal input register deﬁnitions.

5.2.1 Supplying Power from a Solar Panel

To power the DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave from a 12 V dc solar panel, connect the solar panel to power pins 2(+) and 3(-). Connect a 12 V dc sealed lead acid (SLA) rechargeable battery to pins 4(+) and 5(-).

The factory default setting for the battery charging algorithm assumes you are using 12 to 30 V dc power to recharge the battery. If the incoming power is from a solar panel, you must change the charging algorithm.

To change the charging algorithm from the menu system:

1. From the DXM Modbus Slave LCD menu, navigate to System

2. Select Solar for solar panel conﬁgurations.

To change the charging algorithm by writing to Modbus register 6071 on the I/O base board (Slave ID 11):

1. Write a 0 to select the solar power charging algorithm.

5.2.2 Connecting a Battery to the DXM Modbus Slave

When attaching a battery to the DXM Modbus Slave as a backup battery or as a solar battery, verify the charging algorithm is set properly. The factory default setting for the battery charging algorithm assumes you are using 12 to 30 V dc to recharge the battery.

The charging algorithm is designed to work with a sealed lead acid (SLA) battery only.

• When using 12 to 30 V dc, connect the 12 to 30 V dc + to pin 2 and connect the ground to pin 3.

• When using main dc power with a back up battery (default (+) and to pin 3 (-). Connect the 12 V sealed lead acid battery to pin 4 (+) and pin 5 (-). The incoming main power must be 15 to 30 V dc to charge the battery.

• When using a solar panel, connect the solar panel output to pin 2 and connect the ground to pin 3. Connect the 12 V dc SLA battery to pin 4 (+) and pin 5 (-). To change the charging algorithm, refer to

5.3 Working with Solar Power

A reliable solar system requires careful planning and monitoring to size the components correctly. The recommendations provided are for the DXM Modbus Slave system as an autonomous system.

Adding extra components increases the power requirements and likely requires increasing the solar system components. Depending upon the geographical location, the size of the solar panel and battery may vary.

5.3.1 Setting the DXM Modbus Slave for Solar Power

By default, the DXM Modbus Slave is set from the factory to charge a backup battery from a line power source. Use the LCD menu on the front of the DXM Modbus Slave to change the charging algorithm to solar power.

Go to System For DXM devices without an LCD, adjust the I/O board Modbus register 6071. Set the register to 0 to select battery

charging from a solar panel, and set to 1 to select battery charging from incoming 12 to 30 V dc supply. Here are a few DXM conﬁguration tips to help minimize the power consumption (may not apply to all models).

• If Ethernet is not being used, save up to 25% of the consumed power by disabling Ethernet. Set DIP switch 1 to the

• Instead of powering external devices all the time, take advantage of the switched power mechanisms to turn off

• Minimize the number of cellular transactions and the amount of data pushed across the cellular modem.

5.3.2 Solar Components

The components of a solar system include the battery and the solar panel.

devices when possible.

Battery

The DXM solar controller is designed to use a 12 V lead acid battery. The characteristics of a solar system require the battery to be of a certain type. There are basically two types of lead acid batteries:

• SLI batteries (Starting Lights Ignition) designed for quick bursts of energy, like starting engines

• Deep Cycle batteries - greater long-term energy delivery. This is the best choice for a solar battery.

Since a solar system charges and discharges daily, a deep cycle battery is the best choice. There are different versions of a lead acid battery: wet cell

26 www.bannerengineering.com - Tel: +1.763.544.3164

(ﬂooded), gel cell, and an AGM (absorbed glass mat).

DXM150-Sx Wireless Modbus Slave

Wet cell batteries are the original type of rechargeable battery and come in two styles, serviceable and maintenance free. Wet cell batteries typically require special attention to ventilation as well as periodic maintenance but are the lowest cost. The gel cell and AGM battery are sealed batteries that cost more but store very well and do not tend to sulfate or degrade as easily as a wet cell. Gel or AGM batteries are the safest lead acid batteries you can use.

Battery Capacity

Battery capacity is a function of the ambient temperature and the rate of discharge. Depending upon the speciﬁc battery, a battery operating at –30 °C can have as much as 40 percent less capacity than a battery operating at 20 °C. Choose enough battery capacity based on your geographical location.

A larger capacity battery typically lasts longer for a given solar application because lead-acid batteries do not like deep cycling (discharging a large percentage of its capacity). Depending upon the battery, a battery discharging only 30 percent of its capacity before recharging will have approximately 1100 charge/discharge cycles. The same battery discharging 50 percent of its capacity will have approximately 500 charge/discharge cycles. Discharging 100 percent leaves the battery with only 200 charge/discharge cycles.

Batteries degrade over time based on discharge/charge cycles and environmental conditions. Always monitor the battery system to obtain the best performance of the solar powered system.

Use this as a guide to the approximate state of charge and in determining when to apply conservation measures.

Solar Panel

Banner solar panels come in two common sizes for the DXM Modbus Slave: 5 Watt and 20 Watt. Both panels are designed to work with the DXM Modbus Slave but provide different charging characteristics. Use the 5 watt panel for light duty operation and use the 20 watt panel when you require greater charging capabilities.

Solar Panel Voltage Current Typical DXM Conﬁgurations

5 Watt 17 V 0.29 A DXM slave controller, ISM radio, I/O base board

20 Watt 21 V 1 A DXM Controller with ISM radio and Cellular modem

Photovoltaic panels are very sensitive to shading. Unlike solar thermal panels, PV solar panels cannot tolerate shading from a branch of a

leaﬂess tree or small amounts of snow in the corners of the panel. Because all cells are connected in a series

string, the weakest cell will bring down the other cells' power level. Good quality solar panels will not degrade much from year to year, typically less than 1 percent . Solar Panel Mounting To capture the maximum amount of solar radiation throughout the year, mount a ﬁxed solar panel to optimize the sun's

energy throughout the year. For the northern hemisphere, face the panel true south. For the southern hemisphere, face the panel true north. If you are using a compass to orientate the panels, compensate for the difference between true north and magnetic north. Magnetic declination varies across the globe.

A solar panel's average tilt from horizontal is at an angle equal to the latitude of the site location. For optimum performance, adjust the tilt by plus 15 degrees in the winter or minus 15 degrees in the summer. For a

ﬁxed panel with a consistent power requirement throughout the year, adjust the tilt angle to optimize for the winter months: latitude plus 15 degrees. Although in the summer months the angle may not be the most

efﬁcient, there are more hours of solar energy available.

For sites with snow in the winter months, the increased angle helps to shed snow. A solar panel covered in snow produces little or no power.

5.3.3 Recommended Solar Conﬁgurations

These solar panel and battery combinations assume direct sunlight for two to three hours a day. Solar insolation maps provide approximate sun energy for various locations. The depth of battery discharge is assumed to be 50 percent.

The DXM Modbus Slave can be conﬁgured to monitor the health of the charging system as well as send an alert message when the battery is too low.

The charts show a typical charging cycle, with each vertical grid representing about eight hours. The chart shows three days of charging.

• 2953 Communication Default I/O Timeout (100 ms/Count). This parameter deﬁnes the host timeout period in 100 millisecond increments. If a host does not communicate within this timeout period, the device outputs are set to the default values.

• 2954 Enable Default on Power Up. Setting this parameter to 1 sends the device outputs to their default condition when the DXM baseboard is powered up. Set to 0 to disable this feature.

Default Output State. The Default Output State parameter represents the default condition of the analog output. When an error condition exists, the outputs are set to this 16-bit user-deﬁned output state. To deﬁne the error conditions for device outputs, refer to the MultiHop default output parameters 2950-2954.

Enable Register Full Scale. Set to 1 to enable a linear range from 0 to 65535 for

speciﬁed input range. For a 4 to 20 mA output, a value of 0 represents 4 mA and 65535 represents 20 mA. Set this parameter to 0 to store readings in unit-speciﬁc data. For example, the register data representing a 15.53 mA reading is 15530. For units of current (0 to 20 mA outputs), values are stored as µA (micro Amps) and voltage values are stored as mV (millivolts).

Hold Last State Enable. Set the Hold Last State to 1 to set the output to its last known value before the error occurred. Set this parameter to 0 to disable the Hold Last State and use the Default Output State setting during an error condition.

Maximum Analog Value. The Maximum Analog Value register stores the maximum allowed analog value. The

speciﬁc units of measure apply to the register value. For example, the register may contain 20000, for 20 mA, or for a voltage output the register may contain 8000, for 8 volts.

Minimum Analog Value. The Minimum Analog Value register stores the minimum allowed analog value. The

speciﬁc units of measure apply to register value. For example, the register may contain 4000, for 4 mA, or for a voltage output the register may contain 2000, for 2 volts.

Synchronous Counters. An isolated input can be programmed to count the input signal transitions. When an input is enabled as a counter, the counter value is stored into two 16-bit Modbus registers for a total count of 32-bits (unsigned). To program an input to capture the edge transition counts, follow

Example: Conﬁgure Input 1 as a Synchronous Counter

on

page 18. The counters are synchronous because the inputs are sampled at a 10 ms clock rate. The input logic does not detect rising

or falling edges, it samples the input every 10 ms to

ﬁnd level changes. The input signals must be high or low for more than 10 ms or the input will not detect transitions. Because most signals are not perfect, a realistic limit for the synchronous counter would be 30 to 40 Hz.

Universal inputs can also be conﬁgured as a synchronous counter. See the Modbus register map for universal inputs and all the register

deﬁnitions. The procedure for creating a synchronous counter is the same as a isolated input with the addition

of changing the input type to PNP or NPN.

Enable Rising/Falling. Use these registers to enable the universal input logic to count on a rising transition or a falling transition. Write a one (1) to enable; write a zero (0) to disable.

High/Low Register for Counter. The low and high registers for the counter hold the 32-bit counter value. To erase the counter, write zeroes to both registers. To preset a counter value, write that value to the appropriate register.

Hysteresis and Threshold. Threshold and hysteresis work together to establish the ON and OFF points of an analog input. The threshold

deﬁnes a trigger point or reporting threshold (ON point) for a sensor input. Setting a threshold establishes an ON point. Hysteresis deﬁnes how far below the threshold the analog input is required to be before the input is considered OFF. A typical hysteresis value is 10% to 20% of the unit’s range.

In the example shown, the input is considered on at 15 mA. To consider the input off at 13 mA, set the hysteresis to 2 mA. The input will be considered off when the value is 2 mA less than the threshold.

Input Type. Program the universal inputs to accept input types NPN, PNP, 10k thermistor, 0 to 10 V, 0 to 20 mA, or potentiometer. The default setting is 8: NPN raw fast. To set the input type, write the following values to the Input Type Modbus registers.

0 = NPN 1 = PNP 2 = 0 to 20 mA 3 = 0 to 10 V dc 4 = 10k Thermistor 5 = Potentiometer Sense (DXM150 only) 6 = Not used 7 = Bridge 8 = NPN Raw Fast (default)

Temperature °C/°F. Set to 1 to represent temperature units in degrees Fahrenheit, and set to 0 (default) to represent temperature units in degrees Celsius.
