1 Honeywell Zellweg er IR-148 Descr i pt ion

The Honeywell Infrared Gas Monitor (Model IR-148) detects solvents and gases such as HCFCs, HFCs and PFCs. IR­148 can have 1, 4 or 8 sampling points. This InfraTox driver reports gas values, alarms and troubles for each point.

The serial driver can emulate a Client or a Server. The FieldServer and Zellweger device are connected using a RS­485 network.

As a Client:

The driver listens passively for messages from the IR-148 unit 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 if 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 up to three 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), one as a 4-point unit (IR-148 4 point) and the other as an 8
point unit (IR-148 8-point). At this stage one device with 8 points and one with 4 points have been tested
seperately.

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.1

3.1 CONNE CTION NOTES

 Other devices must not transmit Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 49 byte messages
 If connecting to the X-20, the serial port must be configured for RS-485 connection.
 It is possible to connect to serial ports on the X-30 and X-40 with the use of a RS-232 to RS-485 convertor.
 If connection problems are experienced when connecting with RS-485, remove the GND wire.

4 Data Array Par am eters

Data Arrays are “protocol neutral” data buffers for storage of data to be passed between protocols. It is necessary to declare
the data format of each of the Data Arrays to facilitate correct storage of the relevant data.

5 Configuring th e Fi e l dServer as a Honeywell Zel l weger 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.

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.
