The card is internally connected to both COM1 and COM2 serial channels and provides an interface for connecting a PC with LiteEdit or InteliMonitor through ethernet/internet network, for sending active e-mails and for integration of the controller into a building management (Modbus TCP protocol). This card also enables to monitor and control the genset over web browser from any location with internet access using appropriate security measures. Card inserts into expansion slot back on the controller. To insert the module, please follow the instructions for IL-NT RS232 module, procedure is analogous.

InteliLiteNT– AMF20/25, SW version 2.2, ©ComAp – September 2014 13 IL-NT-AMF-2.2-Reference Guide.pdf

Use Ethernet UTP cable with RJ45 connector for connection of the module into your ethernet network. The module can be also connected directly to a PC using cross-wired UTP cable.

Hint:

The controller is able to detect IB-Lite and performs automatic configuration. Related setpoints COM1

Mode, COM2 Mode and ModbusComSpeed remain unchanged. This applies to firmware versions 2.2

or higher. Modbus TCP protocol using IB-Lite communication module requires setting COM1 Mode = DIRECT and COM2 Mode = MODBUS. Connection to LiteEdit via IP address is not possible if AirGate function is enabled. In this case use AirGate connection. If you require connection using IP address, kindly disable setpoint “Airgate [ENABLE, DISABLE]”. For details see newest version of IB-Lite Reference Guide.

IL-NT-GPRS GSM and GPRS plug-in modem

This plug-in module is a GSM/GPRS modem which can work in two modes of operation based on the settings in the setpoint COM1 Mode.

 Settings DIRECT = the module works in a GPRS network and enables connection via AirGate

to LiteEdit and WebSupervisor as well as sending SMS alarms.

 Settings MODEM = the module works as a standard GSM modem enabling a CSD (Circuit

Switch Data) connection to the controller with LiteEdit or InteliMonitor and sending SMS alarms.

IL-NT GPRS MODULE AND GSM/GPRS SCREEN ON IC-NT DISPLAY

The communication module IL-NT GPRS works with:

 WebSupervisor – internet-based remote monitoring solution  AirGate – powerful connection technology to make internet access as simple as possible

InteliLiteNT– AMF20/25, SW version 2.2, ©ComAp – September 2014 14 IL-NT-AMF-2.2-Reference Guide.pdf

 Locate – localization technology

Hint:

GPRS and CSD services must be provided by your GSM/GPRS operator for successful operation.

Hint:

The GPRS and CSD connection should not be used for the firmware update process. Use instead a wired connection like RS232, USB, RS485 or Ethernet via IB-Lite!

Hint: It is necessary to power the controller and individually the IL-NT GPRS module as well.

Hint: The controller can physically reset IL-NT-GPRS module in case of “frozen” communication. This function is supported with IL-NT-GPRS (HW version 1.2) only!

Hint:

IG IOM/PTM module

IG-IOM and IGS-PTM modules are I/O extension modules equipped with 8 binary inputs, 8 binary outputs, 4 analogue inputs and one analogue output. The module can be used for AMF25, MRS15, 16, 19 only.

 Binary inputs and outputs are configurable the same way like inputs and outputs on iL.  Analogue inputs are configurable like iL with the limitation that the binary and tristate mode

cannot be used on PTM module.

 The protection of analogue IOM/PTM inputs is activated by overcrossing the limits, active only

when the engine is running.

 IG-IOM analogue inputs are resistive (the same parameters like IL-NT) 0 -2,4 k. The

module IOM is designed for especially VDO resistive sensors.

 IGS-PTM analogue inputs are configurable by jumpers to ranges 0-250, 0-100mV, 0-20mA.

The module can be used especially for Pt100 sensors and current sensors. The module PTM is not suitable for VDO temperature sensor.

Hint:

- For connection details please refer to chapter Extension modules (CAN bus) connection.

- For a description of setting IGS-PTM module with current/voltage sensors please see the Extension modules manual.

- When module is not configured by LiteEdit SW, controller does not show related values and setpoints

- If IGS-PTM is not communicating to a controller, ShutDown protection on controller is activated.

See the documentation of IGS-PTM for the technical and function description.

IG-IB Internet bridge

IG-IB Internet bridge enables InteliLiteNT for Ethernet/Internet communications. It is connected to controller via RS232 line.

See InteliCommunication Guide for further details.

InternetBridge-NT

The InternetBridge-NT (IB-NT) is a communication module that allows connection of a single controller as well as a whole site to the internet or a Local Area Network. The internet connection can be enabled via the built-in cellular modem supporting 2G and 3G networks or via Ethernet cable. For InteliLiteNT the following functions are available:

- Direct Ethernet connection to ComAp configuration and monitoring tools (LiteEdit, InteliMonitor or WebSupervisor)

- AirGate support

- Web interface

Hint:

Support of InteliLiteNT controllers is in IB-NT 1.2 SW and newer. For further information and options that can be set, see IB-NT Reference Guide.

Installation

Mounting

The controller is to be mounted onto the switchboard door. Requested cutout size is 172x112mm. Use the screw holders delivered with the controller to fix the controller into the door as described on pictures below. Recommended tightening torque is 0,15 – 0,2 Nm.

WARNING! When mounted in plastic door or box, or sheetmetal door thinner than 2 mm, the tightening torque must be reduced. If sufficient sealing is not achieved at tightening torque of approx 0,1 Nm, further tightening may be counterproductive due to rising deformation of the door. Additional sealing or sealing with silicone should be used if necessary.

Dimensions

Hint:

Recommended mounting cutout size is 172 x 112 mm

Dual Mutual Standby (Dual AMF) application

Dual AMF is system of two mutual stand-by gen-sets, which switches in supplying the load. Usual work operation is that after mains fails, first genset starts, takes the load and works for dedicated time interval, e.g. 6 hours. Than it hand over the load to other gen-set, which runs for another 6 hours. This operation system continues as long as Mains is failed. Transfer of load from one gen-set to other one is with blackout.

System works for two gensets with IL-NT-AMF25 controllers. One controller is Master and second is Slave. Other models of IL-NT are not supported.

System needs one binary input and one binary output in each controller. System works only in AUT mode For correct operation both controllers have to have set identical times/delays for mains

protections, mains return delays and other delays in setpoint group AMF Settings. Mechanical interlock between GCB of one gen-set, GCB of second gen-set and MCB breaker

is required due to safety reasons.

Detailed description:

There is a basic communication interface between Master and Slave controller realized by interconnection of two wires (DualAMFCtrlIn, DualAMFCtrlOut) on both.

Binary input DualAMFCtrlIn and binary output DualAMFCtrlOut adjust their function automatically based on fact if there are used in Master or in Slave controller.

Master controller has information about Slave controller and when Slave failure or cannot work the Master will substitute it.

AMF start of Slave controller can be blocked by Master but when Master controller has failure or cannot work the Slave will substitute it.

When there is incorrect wiring or only one controller is configured as Master or Slave than the controller will display "DAMF Disconnect" in alarm list.

In case of incorrect configuration (two Masters, two Slaves, both controllers are not in AUT mode) the controller will display "DAMF ConfigError" in alarm list.

When there is any problem with Slave controller Master will display "DAMFSlaveDown" in alarm list. Every time when any Alarm related to DAMF function is occurring both of the controllers are switched

to normal AMF operation. That meaning that at least one of the controllers will be able to supplying the load until failure on both of them.

To decide which genset should start in case of mains fail, there is rule that if mains fails in time period 00:00AM – 11:59AM, than Master will start and take the load. If mains will fail in period 12:00PM – 23:59PM, than Slave will start and take the load.

Master controller will prevent unnecessary blackout in case, when it is over 12:00 AM (Slave starting period), and Master is already supplying load, but not in AUT mode with DualAMF function enabled, and mode is changed to AUT. Or if Master is already supplying load in AUT, and it is switched to DualAMF operation after 12AM (in Slave’s starting period).

Setpoint “MCB Opens On” has to be set to MAINSFAIL. Otherwise system would not correctly work if Slave would start to stand-by as first. Master would not know when to open MCB breaker.

In case one gen-set should run in stand-by, but it fails, the other gen-set runs instead. After failed genset recovers there is 60s delay for load transfer back to this gen-set.

Setpoints related to Dual AMF function are located in "AMF Settings" group. Setpoint "DualAMFRole" with settings [MASTER, SLAVE] is determining if controller behaves as

Master or Slave in Dual AMF system. One controller has to be set to MASTER and second as SLAVE, for correct function of system.

Binary input "DualAMFRole" can help in switching roles of both gen-sets. Both gen-sets can be easily transformed from Slave to Master and vice versa. Log1 = MASTER, Log 0 = SLAVE. Binary input has higher priority over manual setting of setpoint. If binary input is configured, manual change of setpoint is disabled.

Setpoint „DualAMFTime“ control time period of gen-sets switching in supplying the load. Settings are [1..24], step = 1 hour. Default setting is 6 hours. This timer is reset when load is transferred back to healthy mains

Example of setting the Dual AMF function:

1- Prepare two IL-NT-AMF25 controllers. Copy the identical configurations to both of them. 2- Use wiring with mechanical/electrical interlock between all breakers (GCB1, GCB2 and MCB) 3- Configure one binary input on each controller as DualAMFCtrlIn. 4- Configure one binary output on each controller as DualAMFCtrlOut. 5- Interconnect DualAMFCtrlOut from one controller with DualAMFCtrlIn on second controller.

Interconnect DualAMFCtrlOut from second controller with DualAMFCtrlIn on first controller. So you have two wires interconnecting both controllers.

6- Set setpoint “MCB Opens On” to MAINSFAIL on both controllers. 7- Set „DualAMFTime“ to time period in which you wish to switch gensets in supplying the load.

For example 6 hours. Make this setting on Master controller. Only Master controller controls

this timer. 8- Set "Operation Mode" to MASTER on first controller and to SLAVE on second controller. 9- Change the mode of both controllers to AUT. 10- System is now ready for DualAMF function.

GCB and MCB breakers feedbacks are recommended, but not required.

Getting Started

How to install

During the configuration of controller or setpoints changes is required a password to the controller. The default password from ComAp is “0”.

General

To ensure proper function:

Use grounding terminals. Wiring for binary inputs and analog inputs must not be run with power cables. Analog and binary inputs should use shielded cables, especially when length >3m.

Hint:

Beware of heavy harnesses hanging down from controller terminals. Harnesses must be tightened to panel doors or other suitable place as close to controller as possible.
