ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

1.1 What is the Station Manager?

Station Manager is an application that allows the ControlWave Micro controller to manage up to six (6) natural gas measurement stations that include, among all the stations, up to:

 Maximum of six (6) or eight (8) meter runs, depending on the

software version.

 Eighteen (18) control valves.

 Eight (8) PID loops per station for control. You can configure each

station for tube switching, and Station Manager supports indication of bi-directional measurement for up to three (3) pairs of stations.

 Three general purpose proportional integral derivative (PID) loops.

The Station Manager application consists of:  A ControlWave project file (*.PRO) pre-programmed for mult-run

multi-station natural gas measurement.

 A customized flash configuration profile (*.FCP) file that configures

the ports, audit, and archive parameters of the ControlWave Micro for the Station Manager.

 A TechView session. This includes the TechView session file

(*.TVS), associated *.INI files, and a set of HTM menus customized for the Station Manager application. You use these menus to configure the application.

Issued: May-2019 Getting Started 1-1

ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

Note: Two versions of Station Manager are available for purchase:

 Station Manager 6-Run supports up to six meter runs and also

supports communication to HART® devices, and a Coriolis Modbus interface. Station Manager 6-Run has Measurement Canada

approvals; see Appendix C for details.

 Station Manager 8-Run supports up to eight meter runs, without

HART® support, and without the Coriolis Modbus interface.

 The maximum number of meter runs also affects the number of

certain components you can define, for example the number of ultrasonic flow meters (UFMs) or gas chromatographs (GC).

1.2 Before You Begin

 You must install the ControlWave Micro controller on site and

connect field devices to its I/O modules. For information on

ControlWave Micro hardware, see document CI-ControlWave Micro.

 For this version of Station Manager, your ControlWave Micro must

have 64MB of SDRAM and 5.60 firmware (or newer).

 For full functionality, your ControlWave Micro should not use the

System Controller Module (SCM) used with the ControlWave EFM; you should use a power supply sequence module (PSSM).

 You must install OpenBSI software (5.9 or newer) including

TechView on your PC workstation. See the OpenBSI Utilities

Manual (D5081), the BSI_Config User’s Manual (D5128), and the TechView User Manual (D5131) for details on installation

requirements.

 For optimum results, you should set the screen resolution on your

PC to 1280 x 1024, your screen refresh rate to 60 Hz, and DPI to 96 (normal size).

 You must connect the PC workstation to the ControlWave Micro

controller. You can communicate using a serial cable or an Ethernet

cable. Cable diagrams are included in CI-ControlWave Micro.

 The ControlWave Micro must be running a flash configuration

profile file (*.FCP) compatible with Station Manager software. For

information on updating FCP files, see Chapter 5 of the OpenBSI Utilities Manual (D5081).

 The ControlWave Micro must be running the ControlWave project

(*.PRO) file configured for the Station Manager. See Chapter 7 of the OpenBSI Utilities Manual (D5081) for information on

downloading a ControlWave project (*.PRO) file.

 Your Station Manager application must be properly licensed; if you

purchased a license dongle, you must run the Application Licensing tool and install the dongle in your USB port. You must then reset

When you move the cursor over the CPU module, an Expansion Communication (ECOM) module, or any I/O module, you’ll see a yellow box on the screen. To configure I/O, follow these steps:

1. From the I/O tab, click the I/O Usage button.

2. Position the cursor over the I/O module you want to configure; a

yellow box indicates the cursor position on any configurable module.

3. Click on the module you want to configure. This opens a screen

showing the possible choices for I/O. The Mixed I/O Module

shows multiple types of I/O (see Figure 2-3).

Figure 2-3. Mixed I/O Module

4. Click in the Assignment field, and use the drop-down menu to

select the function in the Station Manager that you want to connect to a particular I/O point. For example, if remote control valve 1’s open limit switch field input is connected to discrete input 1, select RCV 1 Open Limit for the Assignment. (See

Figure 2-5.) Press the [Enter] key to confirm and save your

choice.

Note: You may have noticed that when the cursor is left hovered over

an IO point, the graphics to the left display the applicable

connection points for direct and remote IO (see Figure 2-4).

5. Continue assigning Station Manager functions to their applicable

field I/O points. See the sub-sections below for information on the different I/O module types.

Notes:

 Only assign a given function to one input I/O point. If you

subsequently assign the same function to a different input point, Station Manager re-assigns it to your newer choice and disconnects it from the earlier choice.

 Depending upon your particular configuration, you might not use all

the inputs or outputs in a particular meter run or station.

 If you have I/O that comes from an ultrasonic flow meter or a multi-

variable transmitter that communicates with the Station Manager through a communication port, instead of an I/O module, you configure it from the UFM or Transducer pages, discussed later in this chapter.

 To return to the I/O Usage page from any page underneath it, click

 You must specify the Network ID and Join Key for the wireless

network in a text file called whart_key.ini. The first four lines of the file represent the Join Key, the fifth line is the Network ID. Once you download the whart_key.ini file into the ControlWave Micro flash, Station Manager reads the file and then deletes it for added security. You use the Flash File Access utility in OpenBSI to download the whart_key.ini file into the ControlWave Micro flash.

 The information from the ini file is retained internally across cold

starts so if you ever need to change these parameters, you must download a new whart_key.ini file.

If the Modbus slave port receives CTS at any time before this time expires, the port starts to transmit the message. If the Modbus slave port does not receive a CTS from the master prior to the expiration of the Delay Time, it does not respond to the master and instead reports an error.

which means that the displayed data is the results of the last 20 communications to the meter.

The Comm % illustrates the percent of successful Modbus communications to the meter during the last set of data. Stable flow yields good USM data analysis results.

If the Comm % for any set of rolling filter data is less than the limit then the Comm % box is set to red and the Filter Statics Box light is set to red as shown below:

The Stable Flow % illustrates the percent of the last set of data on which analysis was performed (see the SoS Fingerpirnt Analysis and Gas Profile Analysis boxes). Flow is considered stable when the average velocity from one poll to the next changes by less than 1 ft/s) and all the paths are OK, and the corrected gas velocity and SoS are OK.

The Meter Performance % illustrates the percent of the last set of data where all the path performances were good (Since Stable Flow % depends on Meter Performance %, Stable Flow must be less than or equal to Meter Performance %).

The Meter Performance Box analyzes the meter’s online diagnostics to determine the health of the meter (not the meter system.)

For each data set that makes up a rolling filter, the path diagnostics are examined. If the path velocity or SoS is outside the limits or the path binary status indicates a failed path then that set of path data is discarded from the rolling filter results. After examining all the data sets the percentage of successful data is calculated and the successful path data processed.

Colors are used to indicate the success/failure of individual path parameters and the health of the meter.

The path binary status is set to a 16 if all the binary status in the rolling average indicated that the path is failed or all the velocities or SoS are outside the limits.

Turb Shows the average turbulence for this path.

SoS Fingerprint Analysis The SoS Fingerprint Analysis box displays the maximum

difference between each path and all the other paths. Fo example, if there are four paths (S1 through S4) S1 Diff is the maximum of s1-s2, s1-s3, s1-s4, where the sign is kept. For example if s1-s2 = 0.23 and s1-s3 = -0.41 and s1-s4 = 0.11 the S1 Diff should be displayed as -0.41

Sn Diff If the diff is positive the bar should be dark blue. It the

difference is negative it should be light blue. If any of the differences are greater than the limit (the red line) then the SoS Fingerprint Analysis light is turned to red.

Gas Profile Analysis

Issued: May-2019 Configuring Inputs and Outputs (I/O Tab) 2-29

This is gas profile data read from the UFM.

The Gas Profile Analysis Box displays the path velocity ratios. The path ratios are calculated by dividing each path velocity by the average velocity calculated as follows:

ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

 Daniel SS= (v1+v4)*0.1382 + (v2+v3)*0.3618  Daniel X = (v1+v2+v3+v4)/4  Sick = (v1+v4)*0.1382 + (v2+v3)*0.3618  Q5 = 0.85/3*(v1+v3+v5)+0.15/2*(v2+v4)  Q3 = 0.15*v2+0.85/2*(v1+v3)

These equations are used to make the ratios independent of the flow calibration. For a Daniel SeniorSonic the Profile ratio, Symmetry ratio, and Cross flow are also displayed and tested. If a ratio fails the test then the ratio box light is turned to red and the Gas Profile Analysis Box light is also turned to red.

If any of the path velocities average less than 0.05 ft/s then the other velocities are tested to make sure they are also close to zero (check for zero bias). When this condition is true V1, V2, V3, V4 show the actual velocities (not the ratios described above) with positive velocities in dark blue and negative velocities in light blue. The velocities are then tested as follows:

 Daniel or Sick: if any velocity is less than 0.05

ft/s then the average of all four must be less than 0.1 ft/s

 Instromet: if any velocity is less than 0.05 ft/s

then all the other velocities must be less than

0.1 ft/s

The average velocity in the Sick or Daniel Test or the maximum velocity calculated in the Instromet test is displayed in the box next to the Zero Flow Test and the value is graphically displayed with the limit.

Vn This represents the ratio of the path velocity to the

average velocity, or the actual path velocity if they all average less than 0.05 ft/sec.

2.6 Load/Save Configuration

The Load/Save Configuration function provides a way to save and restore Station Manager configuration files. It uses the ControlWave ScriptTool utility to launch various utilities to accomplish the read/write operations.

Do not manually rename the files you save with the Load/Save function.

Caution

Doing so may prevent the Load/Save function from recognizing the proper file type and could result in an invalid restore.

Notes:

 If you plan to restore arrays related to a UFM or GC RF you should

restore the associated recipes for those arrays first before you attempt to restore the arrays. This ensures the control knows which arrays are available. If you restore arrays and recipes together in the same Load operation, the software restores them in the proper order for you.

 If you plan to restore batch edits you should restore the associated

recipes for the application first, before you attempt to restore the batch edits. If you restore batch edits and recipes together in the same Load operation, the software restores them in the proper order for you.

 Depending on the version of Station Manager you are using, the

number of items may vary (six for six runs, or eight for eight runs).

 While a load/save operation is in progress, TechView is locked until

the ScriptTool operation finishes or is stopped.

Click the button on the I/O tab to activate the Load/Save Configuration page.

To prevent confusion, the page is divided into two tabs, one for saving configuration files from the RTU, the other for loading configuration files into the RTU. Both tabs share most of the same fields.

1. Go to the Save Configuration (From RTU) tab.

2. To view the items to be saved in a section, click “+” to expand

that section.

3. Use the Browse button in the File Save Path field to specify the

path on your PC where you want to save the configuration files.

4. Optionally use the Year Format field to specify the date format

used in the root filenames which you will save.

5. Optionally edit the Root Name to specify the base filename used

for the configuration files which you will save.

6. If you want to save the boot project, FCP, and batch edit files, go

to the Advanced Configuration box, and check those files.

7. In the Standard Configuration Files section check the box for

any groups of files you want to save.

8. If there are certain files in a group that you do not want to save,

and they don’t have their own check box for you to un-check, click the Clear button for each of the files you don’t want to save; this erases their name so they won’t be saved at the PC. If you accidentally clear the wrong one, click Load to restore its name.

9. Click the Save Configuration button. This activates the

ControlWave ScriptTool which in turn sequentially retrieves all of the specified files from your RTU, and saves them on your PC.

Note: Depending upon which files you choose to save, this process

could take several minutes. Allow the ScriptTool to run by itself until the script finishes.

Once you’ve saved the files, do not manually rename them (for example,

2.6.2 Load Configuration (To RTU)

The Load Configuration (To RTU) tab lets you load the ControlWave boot project, flash configuration profile (FCP) file, as well as various array files and recipe files used by the Station Manager application into the ControlWave Micro controller. This is useful if, for example, you took the controller out of service to replace a component and now you want to restore its configuration.

Note: If you restore multiple files, the software restores them in the

proper order for you. If you choose to restore individual files separately, be sure you always restore recipes prior to restoring batch edits, GC RF arrays, or UFM arrays.

1. In the Load Directory field, use the Browse button to specify

the folder on your PC which contains the files you want to load into the RTU. Alternatively, you can choose an existing ZIP file containing configuration files. In either case, the utility automatically populates fields based on the contents of the folder or ZIP file. If a section is unchecked, it won’t be populated. If filenames don’t match the expected name pattern, they are highlighted in red; this could indicate a potential mismatch in file types.

2.10 User Defined Screen

This section discusses the mechanics of developing custom TechView screens. You can add or view screens that display signal data to the TechView Session. You can make custom screens with any PDD signal from the Station Manager Application Load.

To create your own customized Station Manager screens, you need the following tools:

Web page editor (HTML) – You can use any standard HTML development environment (Dreamweaver, Microsoft Visual Web Developer 20xx Express Edition, etc.) to develop TechView Web pages.

JavaScript – You can use any standard JavaScript development environment (Dreamweaver, Microsoft Visual Web Developer 20xx Express Edition, etc.) to develop the JavaScript used in the TechView Web pages.

WebBSI SignalView Grids – Use SigGen_*.js (an Emerson-provided helper tool) to configure tables of WebBSI SignalView grids. This configures the tables and creates the SignalView ActiveX controls using a comma separated variable (CSV) file as the source for defining the contents of each cell within a table.

Using this tool provides a level of consistency between developers in the way tables are laid out, the appearance of the tables, and defaults for the WebBSI SignalView controls.

Note: You can locate the *.js, *.htm, and *.css files referenced in this

appendix in your Station Manager folder.

Screen feature.

HTML

ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

Figure 2-26. User Defined Page

For developing most web pages, the HTML consists mostly of calling JavaScript functions, which create the HTML tables and populates the tables with text and/or WebBSI ActiveX controls.

Review the UDS_V2.htm file.

Observe the first two lines of the file:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1transitional.dtd">

These two lines should be left as is. There is no reason to edit them.

Observe that the HTML Head section has been declared as follows:

<head> <title>User Defined Screen</title> <link href= "Stylesheets/WebBSI.css" rel="stylesheet"

type="text/css"> </head>

Issued: May-2019 Configuring Inputs and Outputs (I/O Tab) 2-59

ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

The only thing that should be modified in the Head section is the text between the html tags <title></title>. This should be modified to be an appropriate title for the html page. The other line is where the WebBSI.css (cascading style sheet) is referenced, and should not be modified, unless a new style sheet file is required.

The next two lines reference external JavaScript files that contain functions common to all web pages.

The next section, between the <script> and </script> html tags, is JavaScript:

******************************* * This section of the JavaScript… /* End New Instance section

********************************************************** * */

</script>

Review this section and read the comments to understand what each section of the JavaScript is doing.

The body section, between the <body> and </body> html tags, is where the web page layout is defined. The opening body tag (<body>) is shown here:

On every web page, there will be a need to call an initialization script. It is recommended that this initialization script be named PageInit, and called with an ‘onLoad’ function, within the <body> tag,

In addition, we want to apply the same styles to the body of every web page. This is done by referencing the class “main” in the <body> tag. The class “main” is defined in the WebBSI.css cascading style sheet.

After the opening <body> tag, we have the next two lines:

<p align="left" class="title">User Defined Page</p> <p class="tablehead">User AI Points</p>

The formats “title” and “tablehead” are defined in the WebBSI.css cascading style sheet. When creating a page, it is recommended you use the “title” for the page title, and the “tablehead” if you want to add a label above a table.

2-60 Configuring Inputs and Outputs (I/O Tab) Issued: May-2019

These two lines will look like this on a web page:

Next, we have a division (<div>) tag:

We are aligning everything in this division to the left, we also assigned an id, “DivSelect”, to it so that it can be referenced elsewhere if desired.

Then, we have the following lines:

<div align="left" id="DivSelect"> <select id="selectScreen"

onchange="pageChange()"style="font-size: 14pt; fontweight: bold">

<option value="0"> Choose a Different Screen</option> </select>

This is a standard selection box. In this example, we are choosing to pass a parameter with a value of 0 to n, where n is any number of pages added by the user. The figure shows 0 to 2 pages to select. This will look like this on the page:

Next, we have the following lines:

var AliasArray = new Array(0);

var SymbolArray = new Array(0);

ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

WriteTableWithObjs("UDS_V2.csv", 0, 0, AliasArray, SymbolArray);

</script> </div>

This is the absolute minimum amount of JavaScript code required to create an HTML Table with static text and live values from the RTU.

We do have to declare an AliasArray and a SymbolArray, to be passed into the WriteTableWithObjs function.

The key line of code on this web page is this one:

WriteTableWithObjs("UDS_V2.csv", 0, 0, AliasArray, SymbolArray);

The WriteTableWithObjs function is a function that will read a comma separated variable file, and return a fully formatted HTML table, including static text and live values from the ControlWave Micro.

The CSV file is created using the following rules:

A new table is indicated by starting a line with an asterisk (*). A new cell is created after each comma. If column labels are required, they may be entered in this line. The cell width will be defined in this line. If you want to include both a column label and a width, separate the two with a semicolon.

Example:

*User AI Point;width=150,Value;width=200,;width=15,User AI Point;width=150,Value;width=200,;width=15,User AI Point;width=150,Value;width=200

The above CSV data will create an eight column table. The first row of this table will look like this:

When adding additional lines to the table, the following rules apply:

 No other line in the table can start with an asterisk (*), because that

indicates a new table.

 If a cell contains just a label, add the text as you wish it to appear.  If you want to include a SignalView ActiveX control in a cell, the

cell must start with the dollar sign ($) followed immediately by the ControlWave signal name.

 If you want to change the default SignalView ActiveX control

properties, the properties must be separated by a semi-colon. Any of

the SignalView ActiveX control properties may be set in the CSV file.

Example:

Note: At this time, the WriteTableWithObjs function does not support

breaking a line in the CSV file. The above line is wrapped in this document. However, in the original CSV file, this is a single line.

The above CSV (in conjunction with the Table header line) looks like this:

After the end division tag (</div>) we have the remaining code:

// This function is declared in the SignalGen.js file. It uses innerHtml to create the footer.

// We pass in an array of links, and the innerHtml will build the links that we need

var LinksArray = new Array(1); var Instance = 0;

3.2 Status/Configuration

When you click the button on the Measurement tab, Station Manager opens up a tree structure with icons showing the site along with the various station, meter run, and control valves you can potentially configure in the Station Manager.

Which ones you configure vary depending upon your site requirements, the type and number of meter runs, and other local characteristics of your system.

Note: The Status/Configuration button allows you to fully configure a

station, meter run, or control valve. The screens it opens are slightly modified versions of those available in previous releases of Station Manager. Modifications were made to reduce screen clutter and improve the ease of configuration in Windows 7. If you have Windows XP, you can also use these screens, or you can continue to use the older Status/Configuration screens accessible through the Legacy Controls tab. The older Status/Configuration screens on the Legacy Controls tab do not support use under Windows 7.

Icons represent each potential station, meter run, or control valve you can configure in the Station Manager.

Assigning Runs or Valves to a Station

using Drag and Drop

Meter runs and control valves cannot exist independently within the Station Manager; you must assign them to a particular station. There are different ways to assign meter runs or control valves to a particular station. One way to do that is to drag and drop the icon for the run or valve onto the station name to which you want to assign it. When you

drag, you’ll see a valve or run icon, and you drag it right onto the station name.

Calling Up Menus

ControlWave Station Manager Configuration Manual

Drag the icon for a run (or valve) onto the station name to which you want to assign it.

There are different ways you can access pages.

To call up the first page for a particular site, station, run, or control valve, you can just click on its icon, and the first menu opens. Then you can click on page tabs to bring up other configuration pages associated with that site, station, run, or control valve.
