2 Hardware Description

2.1 General

As hardware platform for the protocol converter a 19” industrial PC is used. This solution offers a high degree on flexibility, performance and reliability.

Mounting and intensive tests of the industrial PC are done in our company. Before and after a 48 hour Burn-in Test each device must run through a complete function test

All components are cooled passively. Only if critical system temperatures have been reached two independent housing fans are switched on automatically. Important for the selection of our components are particularly items like quality, availability and a high durability.

The industrial PC consists of a 19“ chassis (1U) with an integrated Dual PCI riser card for inserting the appropriate cards. The mains power supply is 90 – 264 V AC, 127 – 373 V DC autorange, optional 10 – 30 V DC power supply (other on request).

2.2 Hardware Components

2.2.1 Mainboard

The Mini-ITX Mainboard is an ultra compact x86 dual LAN platform with all the necessary interfaces. Its heart consists of a fanless highly efficient embedded VIA Eden processor. The mainboard provides one DIMM slot for DDR memory modules and supports up to 1GB system memory.

The following interfaces are provided by the CPU module:

• 2 x RS232 Interface (model-specific)

• 2 x RJ45 LAN Interface

• Bi-directional Parallel Port

• EIDE Interface

• VGA Interface

• Keyboard- / Mouse Port

2.2.2 CPU-Module RS232 Interfaces

The installed mainboard provides 3 serial interfaces. However, depending on the model these interfaces are completely or only partly available at the chassis. COM 2 – COM 3 do not possess an RI signal. The signal level of the serial interfaces can be changed between 5 and 12 V by means of a jumper. COM3 interface is reserved for internal purpose and can not be used.

This interface type is used for COM 1

2.2.5 Ethernet Interfaces

The industrial PC features up to two Ethernet Interfaces generally. The connection is set up via a 10/100 Mbps BaseT (RJ45) interface. Further Interfaces with 10/100 Mbps or 10/100/1000 Mbps BaseT are possible on request.

2.2.6 CompactFlash

The CompactFlash card serves as a mass storage device, i.e. for storing the operating system, the applications and configuration data. As a result the disadvantages involved with the use of a rotating harddisk are avoided, thus improving the reliability of the system substantially since a CompactFlash has an MTBF of at least 4,000,000 hours. The CompactFlash adapter is simply connected to the IDE bus of the CPU module and treated just like a hard disk.

out

Figure 7. CompactFlash Adapter

With the power supply switched off the CompactFlash card can simply be taken out or inserted enabling a quick change to different hardware.

2.2.7 CMOS Lithium Battery

The onboard CMOS RAM stores system configuration data and has an onboard battery power supply. The long-life Lithium battery has normally a lifetime of at least 5 years.

If the CMOS battery is empty and the CMOS information has been deleted, the CMOS-RAM is programmed by the BIOS with default settings. The converter can be operated faultlessly even if the CMOS RAM is not provided by the battery. After the battery has been changed only time and date must be input.

For opening the case 3 screws on the top must be removed. The battery holder is soldered in the Mainboard and well visible. Attention: Open-frame power supplies are used. Because of this, the process should be carried out only by experienced electronic engineers. The device must be completely disconnected from any power supply. Before opening please push the power button (without electricity supply) several times to eliminate residual voltages of the power supply.

Battery replacement must be carried out by qualified specialists. CAUTION! Incorrect replacement might cause the danger of explosion. Replace the battery exclusively by the same type (3 V DC, CR2032). Used batteries are to be disposed absolutely in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Please pay attention to the correct polarity!

2.2.9 Power Supply

Power supplies with different input voltages can be used in the IPC191. Please pay attention to the correct polarity and input voltage.

2.2.9.1 AC Power Supply

By using AC voltages a specific power supply cable (Fig. 8) is supplied. Please use this cable exclusively.

Figure 9. Power Cable

2.2.9.2 DC Power Supply

By using DC voltages only a male connector is supplied. This connector has to be used. By connecting the cable with the male connector the correct polarity must be kept. The wire cross-section must be at least 1,5 mm².

3 Backup, Restore

The operating system Windows XP, the protocol conversion software ipConv and the backup software “Acronis True Image” are preinstalled at the IPC191. For saving space on the CompactFlash only necessary components have been installed. The access to the CompactFlash has been minimized by system optimizing.

3.1 Restoration / Reinstallation

If the origin state of the system shall be restored the provided CD / DVD created by “Acronis True Image” is necessary. The CD / DVD was created before delivery and includes Windows XP, Acronis True Image and the ipConv software.

The following steps are necessary for the system restoration:

1. So far as possible, backup your configuration data and the software (if these are more current

than the delivered one).

2. Insert Acronis True Image Backup CD / DVD in your CD / DVD drive.

3. Please, reboot the system. The System boots from CD / DVD drive and the True Image boot

menu appears.

. Please, select the option „One - Click Restore “. 4

lease, note that all data on the CompactFlash are erased with this process.

3.2 Backup

Backup of software and configuration is described in the “ipConv documentation”. For generating a backup of the entire system (CompactFlash) please use the preinstalled backup software “Acronis True Image”. The image files can be stored on CD, DVD or USB mass storage

evices..

Further information of the backup software is described in the attached documentation belonging to the Acronis True Image software.
