BlueBox

1 Properties and functions of the BlueBox

The BlueBox is the central element of the BlueBox-System. The BlueBox-System is a modular designed measurement and control system.

The BlueBox is connected via CAN (Controller Area Network) technology with sensors and actuators.

For data processing and communication the BlueBox is equipped with the common interfaces.

1.1 Essential properties of the system

• Due to its modular structure the BlueBox system can handle almost every conceivable measurement and control tasks.

• A BlueBox can be connected with up to 200 sensors or actuators. The connection takes place via sensor

modules

and actuator modules1 (output modules).

• In addition to sensors and actuators from our own product range, we also integrate products of almost all other manufacturers.

• The sensor-actuator modules and can be used in bus or star ciruit configuration

decentralized over dis-

tances of up to 1000 meters (optionally longer).

• Measurement transfer and communication takes place via Ethernet, Internet, cellular radio telephone line (ISDN, analogue), EMC or Modbus (RS-232 / RS-485), current outputs

(UMTS),

(4 – 20 mA).

• In mobile use it is possible to the connect the BlueBox with a GPS for the continuous position determi- nation.

It is possible to connect multiple sensors/actuators to a sensor module.

A star circuit can only be used with a repeater (see 5 Connection of the CAN-bus repeater).

USB or LAN connector with protection class IP65 or higher.

3.4 LAN-connection

The LAN port allows the connection of the Blue Box to a Local Area Network or directly to a PC.

Thus, a retrieval of data and direct communication with the BlueBox is possible. This requires the installation of the BlueBox PC software on your local computer (see Manual BlueBox PC Software).

The connection to a network is made by a RJ-45-connector at the bottom of the BlueBox (see also 3.2 Connection options).

For this connection you have to choose one of two different connecting cables.

• For connecting to a network you need a standard RJ-45 cable.

• For connecting to a PC you need a RJ-45-crosslink cable.

(Only if the PC has no automatic switch of the network interface.)

Please ensure that the RJ-45-plug snaps into the socket with a “click”!

If the closing cannot be inserted on the socket, please put vaseline on the rubber seal and try it again carefully.

Precondition for the protection class IP65:

• tightly twisted connector with protection class IP65 or higher on the CAN-bus and power connection∗

• fitted caps on the USB and LAN connection or

4.3 Termination of the CAN-bus

It is important to “terminate” the specific modules in the right way. Physical this means, that a module at the beginning or the end of a bus has to be endued with a closing resistor. With this “termination” the CAN-bus is closed, this prevents signal

OFF ON

reflections and signal interference.

Modules that are inside of a bus (pass modules) may accordingly have no terminating resistor.

1 CAN - H

2 CAN - L

schematic representation of the CAN-bus line

structure, example

The on- and off-switching of the terminating resistor is done with a DIP switch. This DIP switch is located in the module housing next to the connection clamps of the sensors and is labeled "Termination". The termination is switched on when the DIP switch in position "ON". The termination is switched off when the DIP switch in position "OFF".

At the BlueBox itself, the termination resistor can also be switched on and off. Here too, the DIP switch is located next to the terminal to the cable leading from the M12 connector on the motherboard. Because the BlueBox is in the majority of installations at the beginning of the CAN-bus, the BlueBox is terminated at the factory, i.e. the termination resistor is switched on. If the Blue Box is in the middle of a CAN-bus, the termination of the BlueBox must be switched off.

4.4 Checking the Termination

Please take notice of the correct termination of the single modules to assure a correct performance of the CAN-bus.

The termination can be controlled by measuring the resistance between CAN-High and CAN-Low with a multimeter.

The measurement can be done at any device of the CAN-bus-system.

The easiest way to measure this resistance is underneath the spring clips. That is the reason why it is advisable to measure at modules with clamps.

The measuring procedure is described in the following:

Consider that the modules that are going to be proved are without voltage, i.e. the power supply of the BLUEBOX has to be switched off.

Measure the resistance between CAN-High and CAN-Low as it is shown in the illustration.

The measured value should be between 55 Ω and 70 Ω. At the following divergency the respec- tive errors are:.

0 Ω short circuit in line

< 55 Ω more than one module terminated

Korrekte Terminierung

120 Ω only one termination

(for example, only the BlueBox is terminated)

>120 Ω no module is terminated or cable break

5 Connection of the CAN-bus repeater

(article no. 486 R000)

The active CAN repeater is a module to enlarge the CAN-bus topology. A repeater provides eight galvanic disconnected bus segments.

Each of this bus segments can connect up to five modules on a max. length of 1000 m. The individual bus segments are to be provided as necessary with a separate power supply.

The connection is carried out by circuit board connectors. The transfer rate is adjusted by the factory to a value between 5 kBit/s and 50 kBit/s.

In case of long cable lengths or security applications the use of an active CAN repeater is inadvisable.

The figure below shows which connections of the CAN-bus inside the CAN repeater have to be terminated. The figure can only be seen as an example.

DIP switch at "ON"

Appendix B - Calibrating a pH sensor

The pH sensor is an electrochemical sensor. To function properly, electrochemical sensors have to recalibrate in regular intervals.

This is best done weekly, but at least a monthy.

For the two-point calibration you need two calibration fluids with different pH values, eg pH 4 and pH 9.2.

In this two-point calibration it is always the lower value first and then the higher value is measured.

The Bluebox independently calculates the calibration curve.

The calibration fluids are available as accessories under the item no. 3615910 at GO-Systemelektronik.

In addition, you need clean water for rinsing of the probes between the calibration steps.

Press the Main Menu on <Sensorlist>, then on the desired sensor and then <Calibration>.

To protect against misuse there is a password protection set up.

Calibration set

The four-digit code number is in the information sheet. Continue with

Before the calibration starts, it is neccesary to rinse the selected pH sensor with clean tap water. This

prevents pollution of the calibration fluid.

pH sensor in

tap water

Open the bottle with the calibration fluid pH4. The with clean tap water rinsed pH sensor can be gently screwed into the interior of

the bottle with the calibration fluid. Now turn around the pH sensor together with the bottle, so that the sensor end is lapped with

calibration fluid.

Leave the sensor in the calibration fluid until the display is stable

Appendix C - Calibration of an oxygen sensor

The oxygen sensor is an electrochemical sensor. To function properly, electrochemical sensors have to be recalibrated at regular

intervals. This is best done weekly, but at least monthly.

There are two types of calibration:

• Calibration with a reference fluid

and

• Calibration in the air.

Press in the measurement display on <Menu> and <Sensorlist> on the main menu, then on the desired sensor and then on <Calibra-

tion>.
