Options

AK Monitor / AK-Mimic

AK Monitor is the programme with a few easy-to-use functions. The programme gives you an overview of temperatures and alarms in the local refrigerating plant. The AK-Mimic has a graphic user interface.

AKM4 / AKM5

AKM is the programme with many functions. The programme gives you an overview of all functions in all connected refrigerating systems. The programme is used by service centres or in systems where more functions are required than can be obtained with AK Monitor. The AKM5 has a graphic user interface.

TCP/IP

Example

An example is shown here from a food store. A number of controllers regulate the individual refrigeration points. The modem gateway collects data from each of the refrigeration points and transfers these data to the PC with the AK Monitor or to a service centre via the modem connection. Alarms are transmitted to the PC during the shop’s opening hours and to the service centre outside of opening hours.

Example

Here you can see a service centre with connections to other systems:

- A gateway is connected to Com 1. The Gateway acts as a buer when alarm buer when alarms come in from external systems.

- A modem is connected to Com 2. This calls the various systems that undertake service.

- A GSM modem is connected to Com 3. Alarms are sent from here to a mobile telephone.

- A converter is connected from Com 4 to a TCP/IP. From here there is access to external systems.

- There is also access to the TCP/IP from the computer net card and on from there via Winsock.

AKM/AK Monitor/AK Mimic Installation guide RI8BP702 © Danfoss 2016-04 3

1. Prior to installation

AKA 245 / AKA 241

There are dierent types of gateways. They can all be used as connecting point for the PC, but sometimes it is enough to use the somewhat smaller gateway type AKA 241. Dierent ways of making connections are illustrated in Appendix

3. Use the way that is best suited for your plant. Use the AKA 21 to set:

- Type of usage = PC-GW, Modem-GW or IP-GW

- Network

- Address

- Areas for Lon-addresses

- RS 232 port speed

AK-SM 720

The system unit must be connected either to Ethernet or a modem. Use the AK-ST service tool to set:

- IP address or telephone number

- Destination

- Access code

AK-SM 350

The system unit must be connected either to Ethernet or a modem. Use either the front panel or the AK-ST service tool to set:

- IP address or telephone number

- Destination

- Access code

AK-SC 255

The system unit must be connected to Ethernet. Use either the front panel or the AKA 65 software to set:

- IP address

- Authorisation code

- Account code

- Alarm port

Minimum requirements to the PC

- Pentium 4, 2.4 GHz

- 1 or 2 GB RAM

- 80 GB Harddisk

- Serial port for connection of gateway, modem, TCP/IP converter

A hardware handshake is required between the PC and the

gateway. A 3 m long cable between the PC and the gateway may be ordered from Danfoss. If a longer cable is required (but max. 15 m), this can be made based on the diagrams shown in the gateway manual.

- There must be more serial ports in the PC if more connec tions

are required. If a GSM modem (telephone) is connected directly to the PC’s Com.port, the modem must be a Gemalto BGS2T. (Previously used Siemens type MC35i or TC35i or Cinterion Type MC52Ti or MC55Ti. This modem has been tested for its application and found to be OK.

- Windows printer

- This HASP-key must be placed in the PC’s port before the

programme can be used.

Requirements to software

- MS Windows 7 or XP must be installed.

- The programme will require a free disk capacity of at least 80

GB to allow it to be installed, (i.e. 80 GB free capacity when WINDOWS has been started).

- If alarms are routed via email and Microsoft exchange server is

used, Outlook or Outlook Express (32 bit) must be installed.

- Installing programmes other than Windows or AKM is not

recommended.

- If a rewall or other anti-virus programme is installed, they must

accept AKM functions.

AK-CS /AK-SC 355

The system unit must be connected to Ethernet. Use either the front panel or Browser to set:

- IP address

- Authorisation code

- Account code

- Alarm port

• MDM, Modem (only if modem is used).

- Set Com port number

- Set baud rate

- Set lifetime (the time the telephone line remains open if there is no communication on the line)

- With a modem there is also an initiate string. This can be seen in the eld at the bottom left. It may be necessary to make changes in this string, if the communication process is not satisfactory.

• AKA TCP/IP (only if Ethernet via Digi One is used)

- Select COM port to be used

- Keep baud rate at 9600

- Set IP address

- Set IP-GW address

- Set Subnet mask

- Push OK - the set addresses will now be sent to Digi One.

Button for Router Setup (page 5) (via AKA only)

(AKM 4 and 5 only) The following settings are found behind the "Router Setup" button:

Here you set router lines for all the AKA destinations to which the AKM programme is to send messages.

1 Set a net range 2 Set a Phone No or IP Address 3 Select Channel (Port) that is to transmit the message

(In AKM 5 there can be more than one channel for the same function. The number of channels was set in the picture "Port Setup".)

4 Select an initiation string in the "Initiate" eld, if required (the

initiation string is shown/dened in the "Port Setup" display)

5. Push "Update" 6 Repeat the above for all destinations 7 Finish with "OK".

Printouts

1 Dene whether printouts of alarms must be made by the printer

when the alarms are received.

2 Dene whether a printout should be made when an alarm is

accepted.

3 Dene whether a printout will be required when a setpoint is

changed for a controller (when the change takes place from the programme).

4 Dene whether the printer is to provide a printout when the

programme is started and at Logon and Logo.

System Setup / Language

Select the language required for showing the various menu displays. If you change to another language after the installation, the new language will not appear until the programme is restarted.

Start the AKM programme through the PC

Dene whether the programme is to be started automatically when the PC is switched on (booted, or when it starts up again after a power failure).

Log collect Normally transfer of logs takes place automatically when the amount of data reaches a certain size. But if you prefer to have transfers of logged data carried out at a specied time, whatever the amount of them, you must set this function.

- Set time outside of normal working hours when the telephone rates may be lower.

- There will be a daily collection of logs, although it is possible to set a specic weekday.

- When a collection from a destination takes place, the system proceeds to the next but only after the delay time has expired. The delay time is there to prevent alarms from being blocked.

- Indicate if the plant is to be disconnected when the log collection is complete.

- The collected logs are stored in the computer's RAM until all destinations have been retrieved. It is then transferred to the hard drive. Indicate if the log is to be transferred after each destination.

Stop auto collect

This function stops the automatic log collection. After pressing the button, collection stops from all destinations of the selected type. If it is to be restarted, that must take place manually from each of the aected destinations.

Alarm

1 Decide if the PC is to give a signal (beep), when an alarm is

received. 2 Select duration in seconds (beep time). 3 Select how many days an alarm should be shown on the alarm

list. Only accepted alarms will be deleted from the list when the

time is up. This time-limit also applies to the contents of the

event register “AKM Event Log”.

Log

1. The “Use callback” must be used, if the log function in the

programme is to collect log data from a front-end, which is connected with a modem. The programme calls the system, and activate call back, and then immediately interrupts the telephone connection. A call is now made by the system which consequ ently pays for the data transmission.

2 The “Form feed before auto printer” function is used, if the log

printout is to start on a new page when log data are printed

automatically.

(If an alarm has started between two log printouts, the alarm

message and the log printouts can be kept on separate pages).

Optimize communication

The Plant overview communicates constantly with all controllers in relation to the values to be displayed. A pause time can be set here before further communication with the controllers.

Log Data History Clean-up

- Set a time when the computer is not overloaded.

- Select which setting is to be used. Either the one set in the AKA or the one set here in the AKA programme.

Remote communication

Indicate if the AKM should show the telephone number of the destination for the next planned call.

Screen saver

- Dene whether the screen saver is always to be activated when the programme is started. Or whether it should only happen when the programme is waiting for a “Logon”. The screen saver can be cancelled by means of the "AKM Setup Advanced"

- Set the time that is to elapse before the screen saver is activated.

- Indicate if an access code is necessary for access after an active screen saver.

Timeout

- DANBUSS® time out. If the plant is disconnected for longer than set, a communication alarm signal will sound.

- Remote Timeout. If there is a pause in communication to the external unit via "Plant Archive" for longer that the set time, the system will disconnect.

- AKA Password Timeout in the gateway. An access code will be required if there is a pause in operation longer than the set time.

Button for Print

A push will provide a printout of the set values in this display.

Button for Advanced

Gives access to special functions that should only be set by specially trained persons. In the display shown assistance can be obtained by pushing the “?” key.

Alarm

- If a connection dened in the Alarm Scheme cannot be made, a repeat routine will be initiated in order to make contact. Set the number of repeats. The alarm will then appear.

- Indicate whether the alarms should appear as pop-ups on the screen in separate dialogue boxes.

Any later changes in the “AKM Setup” menu can be made via: “Conguration” - “AKM Setup...”.

The programme has now been installed on your PC.

3. First time the programme is started

Setting

After installation the programme can now be started in one of the following two ways:
