· Make sure, that the power supply is off at the PC or at the connecting device.

· Open the PC cabinet and install or remove the NANL-C500-RE card only after disconnecting power.

An electrical shock is the result of a current flowing through the human body. The resulting effect depends on the intensity and duration of the current and on its path through the body. Currents in the range of approximately ½ mA can cause effects in persons with good health, and indirectly cause injuries resulting from startle responses. Higher currents can cause more direct effects, such as burns, muscle spasms, or ventricular fibrillation.

In dry conditions permanent voltages up to approximately 42.4 V peak or 60 V DC are not considered as dangerous if the contact area is equivalent to the size of a human hand.

The analyzer card NANL-C500-RE or NANL-B500G-RE described in this user manual, act as a passive Ethernet analyzer in Real-Time Ethernet systems. The NANL-C500-RE card or the NANL-B500G-RE device analyze the data traffic in a communication stretch and protocol the arriving Ethernet frames.

For process data aquisition and for the clear presentation of process values for netANALYZER the software extension netANALYZER Scope serves. The

frame data are captured on the hard disk and can be used for further analysis in Wireshark.

Description 19/80

3.1 Recording and analyzing data traffic

For devices with two Ethernet channels the analyzer card NANL-C500-RE and the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE capture the Ethernet frames and

adds the time stamps to them. Therefore the analyzer card or the analyzer device must be connected over two patch cables from one of the TAP to the

Ethernet device connections.

Figure1: Typical application (Use Case 2) - The communication between a device and its connection partners in a network should be analyzed

In the "Interactive operating mode" the data capturing must be configured and started via the PC software. This way the analyzer card NANL-C500RE or the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE and the PC software capture the data packets of the communication line, transmit the data packets and save them on the hard disk. On the NANL-B500G-RE analyzer device, data recording is alternatively performed in the "Autonomous mode" with start and stop via the REC button without netANALYZER Scope software.

On the analyzer card NANL-C500-RE or at the analyzer device NANLB500G-RE two TAP are integrated, in consequence two communication channels are operational, without a PC must be connected permanently.

Figure2: Example representation physical TAP

Description 20/80

In combination with the driver and the firmware the analyzer card NANLC500-RE or the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE store the data via DMA

on the hard disk of the PC. Using the PC software and its export function the data can be transformed to the open WinPcap format (*.pcap), which can be analyzed e. g. with Wireshark.

Figure3: Typical analyzer application with the capturing of the Ethernet data transfer and IO events

Additionally, events of up to four digital inputs can be captured. At the four digital inputs the input signals produce a special Ethernet frame in the analyzer card NANL-C500-RE or the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE. This frame is not on the line, but is created for evaluation purposes.

Note:

For the GPIO events in Wireshark a pseudo Ethernet frame is shown (MAC Address 00:02: A2: FF: FF: FF, Ether Type = 0x88ff), this is not a true Ethernet frame, but is inserted as wildcard in the firmware. Then this frame is decoded as GPIO event e. g. with Wireshark.

3.2 Interactive and Autonomous operating mode

Figure4: Interactive and Autonomous operating mode

Interactive operating mode

In the "Interactive operating mode", the NANL-C500-RE card and the NANL-B500G-RE device are connected to a PC.

Autonomous operating mode

For the NANL-B500G-RE device you can use the "Autonomous operating mode". In this operating mode (from the netANALYZER firmware image version 1.2.0.0) the device is not connected to a PC and you can integrate the analyzer device into a communication link and start and stop the recording of frames by means of a button (red REC button). The data are stored directly on the connected USB mass storage device.

5 Getting started

5.1 Notes for installation and operation

You must read and obey the following notes about installation and operation of your analyzer card NANL-C500-RE or your analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE to guarantee proper installation and an error-free

operation of your device.

Note Description

Installation sequence The installation sequence:

1. Install Software from DVD.

2. Mount NANL-C500-RE or connect NANL-B500G-RE.

must be obeyed. Otherwise the result could be incorrect entries in the Registry. This again leads to malfunctions during later installation of software updates.

Number of PCI bus participants for optimal operation

The capturing feature of the NANL-C500-RE card works under high load optimally only if the number of participants in the communications PCI bus is minimized. It is advantageous when the NANL-C500-RE card is the only PCI card in the PC.

Inserting netANALYZER hardware into the communication Link

To analyze the data transfer of a communication line between two devices, these devices must be connected to the same TAP.

The bandwidth of the network connection between the NANL-B500G-RE device and the PC must be sufficiently large to transport the resulting data of the four capturing interfaces.

NANL-B500G-RE: Important! The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE must not be inserted via a switch or hub directly into a corporate network with other devices, as long as the analyzer device is

operating in DHCP server operation mode. Otherwise, it may lead to wrong assignment of IP addresses and malfunction.

The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE works by default as an external DHCP server in the DHCP server operation mode independently and assigns IP addresses to other devices.

This may happen also to devices which are not concerned by the netANALYZER measurements.

Before you connect the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE to any network, ensure that DHCP server operation mode is disabled.

Damage of externally attached Hardware

NANL-C500-RE:

· If the +3.3V output of the external IO interface is enabled, externally attached hardware could be damaged as voltage is driven.

· Before an external device is connected, check that the external device is suitable for the application.

NANL-B500G-RE:

· If the +3.3V output of the external IO interface is enabled (I/O status LED lights up orange), externally attached hardware could be damaged as voltage is driven.

· If the +24V output of the external IO interface is enabled (I/O status LED lights up red), externally attached hardware could be damaged as voltage is driven.

Auto crossover and portswitching

Because of the auto-crossover function of most of the RTE systems, the assignment of port 0 and 1 or port 2 and 3 at the netANALYZER device can change between different test runs. For more information refer to section Auto-crossover and port-switching [}page53].

Transferring NANLB500G-RE data save without loss to the PC

Important! The color of both LEDs on the Gigabit RJ45 Ethernet socket on the reverse side of the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE must be green! If the right LED lights up in orange, the transmission rate to the PC is less than 1 Gb/s, by consequence insufficient bandwidth may occur. For more see section LINK-ACT and LINK-1000/LINK100 (Reverse Side) [}page65].

Saved Ethernet connection from NANL-B500G-RE to the PC

Transmission errors on the host Gigabit interface cable (such as EMC interference or bad connections) do not cause any data loss. However, to strong interference can lead to a disconnection.

Getting started 27/80

Note Description

Interactive operating mode for NANL-B500G-RE (connection to a PC)

If the analyzer device is used via the UPLINK socket (compare section Connecting analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE to the PC (interactive opeating mode) [}page44]), the "DeviceBusy.txt" file is created on the USB mass storage device, with the contents: "netANALYZER is in use and could not be opened for autonomous operation."

Autonomous operating mode for NANL-B500G-RE (connection to an USB mass storage device)

· If no "Autonomous mode" license is present, the "NoLicence.txt" file is created on the USB mass storage device with the following contents: "No valid netANALYZER license found for autonomous operation."

· If a USB mass storage device with a partition marked "active" is connected to the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE (bootable medium), the analyzer device will remain on boot during boot (SYS LED is yellow).

5.4 Configuring the NANL-B500G-RE IP address

Note:

The IP addresse of the device and the IP address of the PC must be in the same network respectively the DHCP server must be

online.

The NANL-B500G-RE device can operate in three different modes:

· Static IP address (manual assignment) A fixed IP address is assigned to the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE. The user must manually assign the IP address designated. This option

is used only in special cases.

· DHCP client mode (external DHCP server required) The IP address is assigned to the analyzer device NANL-B500GRE.The device gets an IP address from the external DHCP server using the DHCP protocol. This IP address then automatically is assigned. This

option is used only in special cases.

· DHCP server operation (device operates as DHCP server) As an DHCP server, the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE assigns itself IP addresses to other devices.

This option is the default setting in the most common use case. The user must not make any configuration.

Important:

The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE must not be inserted via a switch or hub directly into a corporate network with other devices. Otherwise, it may lead to wrong assignment of IP addresses and malfunction. The analyzer device works by default as an external DHCP server in the DHCP server operation mode independently and assigns IP addresses to other devices. This may happen also to devices which are not concerned by the netANALYZER measurements.

For the data captured by the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE and transmitted over an Ethernet connection to the PC arrive safely, you may use the analyzer device exclusively with a laptop or a PC with a separate network card.

DHCP server operation

Therefore you must set your LAN connection to (IP V4) Automatically obtain IP address.

Getting started 30/80

Static IP address or DHCP client operation

To use Static IP address or DHCP client mode, you can configure your netANALYZER protable device NANL-B500G-RE using the Ethernet Device Configuration program. In Ethernet Device Configuration, to find the NANL-B500G-RE device, you must enable the NetIdentV2 protocol.

For details refer to the operating instruction manual Ethernet Device

Configuration, Address setting for Ethernet capable Hilscher devices. You find this manual on the netANALYZER Installation DVD under Documentation.

Note:

In case of problems due to incorrect settings of the IP address (e. g. device is not accessible), restart your device. While turning on your device press the REC button for about 1 minute. Then the default setting for the IP address of your device (DHCP server mode) is restored.

Getting started 31/80

5.5 Autonomous operating mode for NANL-B500G-RE

In the "Autonomous operating mode" of the NANL-B500G-RE device (from the netANALYZER image version 1.2.0.0) the analyzer device is not connected to a PC. Data recording is started or stopped via the red REC button on the device front side.

In the "Live dump mode" mode, the Analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE stores the entire recorded data traffic directly on a connected USB mass storage device. The created PCAP files are stored in a ring buffer.

USB stick or USB hard drive

The USB mass storage device can be an USB stick or an USB hard disk. The USB plug provides a maximum of 500 mA, sufficient for the connection of an USB stick.

When connecting an USB hard disk with a higher power consumption, a separate power supply is required.

Note:

During capturing, data is permanently written to the USB mass storage device. Note that some mass storage devices have a limited writing-time and thus the lifetime of the storage medium may be reduced during continuous operation.

PCAP files (file name and size)

The created PCAP file settings are named with the abbreviation (prefix) "pcapdump", a 5-digit sequence number respectively a time stamp and have the file extension ".pcap".

File name: pcapdump_xxxxx_YYYYMMDDhhmmss.pcap

xxxxx = 00000, 00001, 00002 (sequence number*),

YYYYMM ...... Time of the capturing start (time stamp).

The PCAP files have a file size of up to 50 MByte.

*The USB mass storage device is filled with individual capturing files during capturing process. If the USB mass storage device is full, the earliest files are overwritten during the capturing process. This behavior can be seen from the sequence number.

Note:

Wireshark recognizes the files created during the "Autonomous operating mode" by the prefix "pcapdump" and suffix ".pcap". All pcap files that were recorded in the "Autonomous mode" are recognized by Wireshark as a file setting, independent of their time stamp! Distribute the pcap files manually into different directories to separate your records according to appropriate file formats.

Getting started 32/80

Requirements for using the Autonomous operating mode

· netANALYZER image version 1.2.0.0 (or higher)

· Required license: 8582.060 LIC/NANL/SA

If no "Autonomous mode" license is present, the "NoLicence.txt" file is created on the USB mass storage device with the following contents: "No valid netANALYZER license found for autonomous operation."

· USB stick or USB hard drive, FAT32 formatted, at least 100 MByte memory capacity

Presettings for the behavior of the GPIO signals in "PCAP dump mode"

In the "PCAP dump mode" mode, the following default configuration for the GPIOs is configured:

· 24 V

· GPIO 0: Input rising edge

· GPIO 1: Input rising edge

· GPIO 2: input falling edge

· GPIO 3: input falling edge

Starting or stopping NANL-B500G-RE in the Autonomous operating mode

Starting: Press briefly the red REC button on the device front side.

Stopping: Press and hold the red REC button on the device front side for at least 1 second.

For further descriptions on how to use the NANL-B500G-RE analyzer in the Autonomous operating mode, refer to section Connecting analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE to USB (Autonomous operating mode) [}page45].

Getting started 33/80

5.5.1 Set the time for the autonomous operating mode

The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE has an onboard RTC (real-time clock). The clock is buffered and holds the clock time about 10 days without a connected power supply. If the NANL-B500G-RE device has detected that the device clock is not set or the RTC buffering has failed (e. g., because the device has not been used for several weeks), the STA1 LED on the front side of the device will flash orange at 1 Hz (see section SYS, STA0, STA1, I/O, LINK and RX (Front side) [}page63]).

Note:

Autonomous data capturing is still possible in spite of, the clock time is not set, but the timestamps of the recorded frames have an absolute offset to a past date. The relatively measured time stamps between the frames are furthermore recorded in a highly precise manner.

Set the time for the autonomous operating mode

The clock time can be set in the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE via a web browser.

Note:

When setting the clock time using the netANALYZER configuration web page, the analyzer device is restarted. This way a running data capturing is aborted.

To set the clock time using a web browser, perform the following steps. Ø Enter the IP address of the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE (e. g.

192.168.1.1.) in the address line of the browser.

Ê The netANALYZER configuration web page appears.

Getting started 34/80

Ø Under New time zone, select the time zone. Ø Under New time, set the date and time. Ø Click Set new time. ð The new date and time are stored in the analyzer device NANL-B500G-

RE and are then used as the basis for the time stamp for each recorded frame.

Getting started 35/80

5.5.2 Displaying lost frames in Wireshark

If for the autonomous operating mode of the analyzer device NANL-B500GRE very high transfer rates are used during the data transmission via Ethernet and the writing rate to the USB mass storage device increases correspondingly, frames are lost when storing on the USB mass storage device and the transmitted analysis data are not captured completely.

From the Wireshark version 2.3 lost frames can be made visible. If an affected pcap file is opened in Wireshark, the entry (1) 'Buffer overflow' (frames will be dropped after next buffer recovery) and the corresponding time stamp will appear in the frame view, indicating that frame losses have occurred since this time. This means that no frames could be saved or individual frames were discarded. The (2) 'Buffer recovery' (frame reception has recovered) entry and the associated time stamp indicate that the system has recovered, the network load has been diminuished, and full writing capacity has been achieved again. From this point onwards, all frames could be received again without gaps. The following screenshot shows the two events that mark the beginning and end of the buffer overflow. Before the entry (1) or after the entry (2), all frames are received completely, between the two entries frame losses must be assumed.

Figure6: Buffer overflow

Getting started 36/80

Note: If the STA1 LED flashes 1x in red (=FIFO overflow), the (1) 'Buffer

overflow' entry is made in Wireshark. I. e., a buffer overflow has

occurred and frames have been discarded.

Possible causes of frame loss and workaround

If the maximum transmission rate on the Ethernet is greater than the writing rate on the USB mass storage device, frame losses can occur. This applies in particular to systems which operate with very high bus loads during the data transmission.

Ø Capture only on one TAP to reduce the data load. It is not possible to

write all data to the USB mass storage device.

Ø Note that the USB 2.0 interface can transfer approx. 50% incoming bus

load on a TAP to a USB medium, or 25% on each port when using both TAPs.

Ø Switch to interactive operating mode with PC to record higher data

rates.

7.6.4 Application case 4

Like application case 2, but with analysis of input signals

This use case corresponds to the application case 2, but in addition to the Ethernet communication one to four input signals are included in the analysis. If an edge reversal at the digital input happens, a pseudo Ethernet frame with timestamp is created in the analyzer card NANL-C500-RE or the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE.

· At the I/O signal pins of the external IO interface use exclusively 3.3 V or 24 V signaling voltage. Higher signaling voltage may lead to severe damage to the NANL-B500G-RE device!

· To operate the NANL-C500-RE card use maximally 10 mA output current at the external IO interface I/O signal pins. Otherwise the netX chip and other components may be damaged.

· To operate the the NANL-B500G-RE device use maximally 1 mA (bei 3,3V) or 600 mA (bei 24V) output current at the external IO interface I/ O signal pins. Otherwise the netX chip and other components may be damaged.

Hardware installation and operation 52/80

Damage of externally attached Hardware

NANL-C500-RE

· If the +3.3V output of the external IO interface is enabled, externally attached hardware could be damaged as voltage is driven.

· Before an external device is connected, check that the external device is suitable for the application.

Hardware installation and operation 53/80

7.7 Auto-crossover and port-switching

In a system with for example one netANALYZER device and two RTE devices, the assignment of port 0 and port 1 or port 2 and port 3 can change between different test runs. This is due to the auto-crossover feature of most RTE systems. For auto-crossover the cable assignment by the devices is given randomly. The assignment of the lines as a "transmission line" or "receiving line" is random.

Example

Figure15: Example - Auto-Crossover and Port-Switching

At the 2nd Measurement in this example the receipt of the telegrams is wrong. The port numbers in the telegrams were exchanged.

If both devices use auto-crossover, there is the possibility that port 0 and port 1 will be exchanged for subsequent measurements. This is also true for port 2 and port 3.

Schematic Design of a TAP

Figure16: Design of a TAP, at the right Side Ports of Device 1 and Device 2 exchanged

The schematic design of a TAP makes evident which effects an interchange of the lines of the two devices has.

Workaround

A workaround is possible, by drawing conclusions from the records of two consecutive test runs. In the records for the second test run compared with the first test run, modified port numbers can be found.

8 Hardware properties

This chapter explains how to identify the hardware feature of the time stamp and how to collect Ethernet telegrams in transparent mode.

For information on how to preset the operating modes for data recording Ethernet or transparent mode in the user interface, refer to the operating instruction manual netANALYZER software, Installation and Use the Analysis Software.

Hardware properties 59/80

8.1 Timestamp

The figure hereafter shows for „Ethernet Mode“ or for „Transparent Mode“, where the timestamp for the associated data packet is taken.

Figure21: Message Timestamp-Point for „Ethernet Mode“ and „Transparent Mode“

„DV“ = Data Valid, „D0..3“ = Data, „5 d“ = SFD identifier

„SFD“ = Start-of-Frame-Delimiter

„Ethernet Mode“ (Standard Capturing):

In „Ethernet Mode“ the time stamp is taken at the reception of the SFD (Start-of-Frame-Delimiter).

„Transparent Mode“ (SFD is disturbed):

In „Transparent Mode“ the time stamp is always taken at the very front with the "data valid" lateral growth, i. e. at the proper start of the frame. This makes it possible to find a reference point also for faulty telegrams. Here preamble and SFD are not interpreted.

Accuracy of the time stamping

Time stamps on port 0 and port 1 on the NANL-C500-RE card or NANLB500G-RE device can have an offset of up to 40 ns. After a settling time of approx. 100 ms after receiving the first telegram at one port the offset at this port is max. 8 ns.

Time stamps on port 2 and port 3 on the NANL-B500G-RE device have always a max. offset of 8 ns, without settling.

Time stamps on port 2 and port 3 on the NANL-C500-RE card of the Rev. 4 and older have always an up to 70 ns offset.

Hardware properties 60/80

8.2 Transparent Mode

The Transparent Mode is used with the data capturing to register any telegram data, i. e., any bits transmitted including the frame data, preamble and SFD (=Start of Frame Delimiter).

Note:

The usage of the Transparent Mode only makes sense with a 100 Mbit connection.

Figure22: Basic Principle of an Ethernet Frame in the Standard Ethernet Mode or in the Transparent Mode

As during the Standard Ethernet Mode the preamble and the SFD (=Start of Frame Delimiter) are not included to the telegram, these parts are captured in the Transparent Mode.

11.1 Power Supply NANL-B500G-RE

The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE can be operated by a DC power supply from 18V to 30V. The connector for the power supply are on the reverse side of the analyzer device. The power consumption is 31.2 W.

The polarity of the power plug has to be considered. No alternating (AC) power supply can be used, because the board is not designed for this type of power supply. The current consumption of the analyzer device NANLB500G-RE depends on different factors, for example the operating mode of the netX, CPU load, the load at the outputs and mainly from the level of the real input voltage (the higher the voltage the lower the current).

Annex 73/80

13 Annex

13.1 Hardware update for NXANL 500-RE Rev 2 and Rev 3

For existing installation of the analyzer cards NXANL 500-RE of the hardware revisions 2 and 3 you must apply the netANALYZER hardware update „Update NXANL 500-RE Revision 3“ and then update the netANALYZER driver and the netANALYZER software.

Therefore proceed as described below:

1. Burn an ISO image of the netANALYZER Hardware Update on a CD.

Ø Burn the file update NXANL 500-RE Revision 3\netANALYZER_

hw_update.iso from the netANALYZER installation DVD as ISO image

on a CD.

2. Boot the PC with the existing hardware installation.

3. Put the CD with the ISO image of the netANALYZER hardware update into the DVD-ROM drive of this PC.

The system of the PC boots and after a short time the following text is displayed at the screen:

4. Start the hardware update.

Ø Therefore enter netanalyzer-updater.

Ø Press Enter.

The hardware update utility searches for Hilscher devices and then for netANALYZER portable Device.

The following text is displayed at the screen:

Annex 74/80

5. Continue the hardware update.

Ø Therefore enter y.

Ø Press Enter.

The following text is displayed at the screen:

6. Reboot the PC with the existing hardware installation.

7. Now actualize the netANALYZER driver and the netANALYZER software, as described in the user manual software installation for netANALYZER.

Annex 75/80

13.2 Failure in 10 MBit/s half duplex mode and workaround

Note:

The failure described here only affects older NANL-C500-RE devices with serial numbers up to 20233.

Affected hardware

Hardware with the communication controller netX 50, netX 100 or netX 500; netX/Internal PHYs.

When can this Failure occur?

When using standard Ethernet communication with 10 MBit/s half duplex mode, the PHY gets stuck in case of network collisions. Then no further

network communication is possible. Only device power cycling allows Ethernet communication again.

This problem can only occur with Ethernet TCP/UDP IP, EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP protocols when using hubs at 10 MBit/s. The issue described above is not applicable for protocols which use 100 MBit/s or full duplex mode.

Solution / Workaround:

Do not use 10 MBit/s-only hubs. Use either switches or 10/100 MBit/s Dual Speed hubs, to make sure the netX Ethernet ports are connected with 100 MBit/s or in full duplex mode.

This erratum is fixed with all components of the ‘Y’ charge (9 digit charge number shows ‘Y’ at position 5 (nnnnYnnnn).
