1. Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 Description

The Honeywell Infrared Gas Monitor (Model IR-148) detects solvents and gases such as
HCFCs, HFCs and PFCs. IR-148 can have 1, 4 or 8 sampling points. This InfraTox driver
reports gas values, alarms and troubles from IR-148 having either 1 or 8 sampling points.
The serial driver can emulate a client or a server. The FieldServer and IR-148 device are
connected using a RS-485 network.

As a Client: The driver listens passively for messages from the Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 t
and stores data extracted from the messages. The driver cannot poll the IR-148 device for
data. The driver records some additional data age information (which is stored in the
FieldServer’s Data Arrays) because messages do not always contain information about all
sensors and depending on the IR-148 operational mode (e.g. Locked mode.), may never
contain information other than for one sensor.

As a Server: The Server side of this driver has been developed primarily to test the Client side
driver as part of FieldServer’s QA program. The driver sends messages reporting the state of
the samples. The Server driver can also be locked to report the status/value of one particular
sample channel.

It is possible to connect two Honeywell Zellweger units (IR-148) on one RS-485 network
provided that one unit is configured as a single point unit (IR-148 1 point) and the other as an 8
point unit (IR-148 8 point). At this stage only one device with 8 points has been tested.

To allow for the possibility that the device is connected on a RS-485 network with other devices
(such as the relay module option) messages that are not 49 bytes long and which do not begin
with 0xB1 will be ignored. The Driver will, however, provide statistics for the ignored as well as
the processed messages.

To see supported messages and the way the Driver stores Data, refer to Appendix A.2

4. Configuring the FieldServer as a Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 Client

For a detailed discussion on FieldServer configuration, please refer to the FieldServer
Configuration Manual. The information that follows describes how to expand upon the factory
defaults provided in the configuration files included with the FieldServer (See “.csv” sample files
provided with the FieldServer).

This section documents and describes the parameters necessary for configuring the FieldServer
to communicate with a Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 Server having one or eight sensors.

4.1. Data Arrays/Descriptors

The configuration file tells the FieldServer about its interfaces, and the routing of data
required. In order to enable the FieldServer for Honeywell Zellweger IR-148
communications, the driver independent FieldServer buffers need to be declared in the
“Data Arrays” section, the destination device addresses need to be declared in the “Client
Side Nodes” section, and the data required from the Servers needs to be mapped in the
“Client Side Map Descriptors” section. Details on how to do this can be found below.

Note that in the tables, * indicates an optional parameter, with the bold legal value being the
default.

Section Title

Data_Arrays

Column Title Function Legal Values

Data_Array_Name Provide name for Data Array

Up to 15 alphanumeric
characters
Float, Bit, UInt16, SInt16,

Data_Array_Format

Provide data format. Each Data
Array can only take on one format.

Packed_Bit, Byte,
Packed_Byte,
Swapped_Byte

Number of Data Objects. Must be

Data_Array_Length

larger than the data storage area
required by the Map Descriptors for

1-10,000

the data being placed in this array.

Example

// Data Arrays
Data_Arrays
Data_Array_Name, Data_Format, Data_Array_Length

DA_R2, Float, 100
DA_CTL_R1, Uint16, 1
