Mitsubishi Alarm Modems at a Glance State-Of-The-Art Communication

C

1 Mitsubishi Alarm Modems at a Glance

Mitsubishi Alarm Modems are new automatic modems with a large data memory, several func
tions and integrated Internet technology. They are designed as intelligent communication com
puters with a 32-bit power CPU and a 2 MB non-volatile Flash memory. This can now be
expanded by up to 64 MB, thus providing enough space for your data requirements now and in
the future.

Mitsubishi Alarm Modems are fully automatic and can

send alarm and status messages via SMS or Express E-Mail,

쎲

receive switch commands via SMS or Express E-Mail and forward them to a PLC,

쎲

send the data of a connected PLC/system,

쎲

transfer data between PLCs

쎲

What´s more:

You can use them as “normal” modems for the remote access of PLCs or systems, and the

쎲

programming software of the PLC can generally be used for this.

1.1 State-Of-The-Art Communication

The Mitsubishi Alarm Modem can communicate directly with the Mitsubishi PLCs using the relevant
PLC protocol. Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII are also supported. User-friendly XML-based soft­ware programs enable the required functions to be configured easily. The over twenty year history of
modems being controlled by primitive AT commands can now be forgotten at last.

The wide range of functions available on the Mitsubishi Alarm Modems provide solutions for a
number of applications such as the monitoring of temperature, pressures, levels, or the activa­tion of motors, fans, pumps slide valves and flaps.

1.2 Easy To Retrofit

Mitsubishi Alarm Modems can be integrated in existing systems with a minimum of effort. The
communication protocols of commonly used PLCs are already implemented and so modifica
tions to the PLC program are normally not required.

Mitsubishi Alarm Modem 1-1

Integrated PLC protocols Function overview

2 Function overview

2.1 Integrated PLC protocols

Mitsubishi Alarm Modems can communicate directly with the PLCs of leading manufacturers
using the relevant PLC protocol, and access PLC variables, markers and ports via the PLC pro
gramming interface. This can be achieved without having to adapt the PLC program or load a
special function block for communication.

These protocols are supported:

Mitsubishi Alpha XL

쎲

Mitsubishi MELSEC FX1S/FX1N and FX2N/FX2NC

쎲

Mitsubishi System Q (in preperation)

쎲

-

2.2 Alarming with acknowledgment

Mitsubishi Alarm Modems are fully automatic and can send status and fault mes
sages to any recipient via SMS, fax, e-mail or Express E-Mail. Messages can be
triggered by PLC variables.

Address book: The SMS, fax and e-mail addresses (max. 100) are

managed in an address book.

Messages: The message texts(max. 100) cancontain up to100 actual

values from the PLC and can be of any required length
when used with faxes and e-mails.

Alarms: Up to 100alarms and actionssuch as switching commands

can be defined.

Alarm cascade
and acknowledgments: Any number of freely definable alarm levels can be set up if

message acknowledgment is required. If a message is not
acknowledged within a specified time, one or several
recipients can be notified. This can be cascaded
as required.

-

2.3 Remote switching via SMS and Express-E-Mail

A short command via SMS or Express E-Mail can switch the optional outputs of
the Mitsubishi Alarm Modem and those of a connected PLC. PLC variables can
also be set in this way.

The execution of the command can also be acknowledged. 100 SMS switch
commands with up to 10 parameters each can be defined as required. PLC
variables can be queried simply and quickly by SMS command without the need for a PC.

2-1 MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC

Function overview Teleservice via PC

2.4 Teleservice via PC

A Mitsubishi Alarm Modem can be used to handle the remote maintenance of
several controllers via a telephone line. Thisis usually possible with the program

­ming software in use. The variables and I/O ports of the PLC can also be read or
written remotely online with the Mitsubishi Alarm Editor (MX-AME). The entire
configuration of the Mitsubishi Alarm Modem can be carried out by remote dial-in
and the logged data can be read “manually".

Secure Login

Optimum security is ensured since unauthorized dial-in attempts are prevented by means of a
login procedure with user name and password. All dial-in and dial-in attempts are recorded.

2.5 Pump alarm application example

The following example shows how you can use the wide range of functions of the Mitsubishi
Alarm Modem to handle complex tasks automatically:

Pump alarm:

햲

Send an e-mail, a fax and an SMS to three different destinations
if input X0 on the PLC closes.

햳

Wait ten minutes for a confirmation via SMS.
Service technicians can query status values by SMS (or dial-in and PC).

햴

Wait for a switch command for reserve pump 2.

햵

If the SMS confirmation does not come within 10 minutes,
start a new alarm message cascade to other recipients.

햶

If the switch command for switching on the reserve pump has been received,
switch on the PLC output Y10 (or a relay).

2.6 Model And Equipment Versions

The Mitsubishi Alarm Modems were offered in two equipment versions: GM series (Alarm
Modem GSM) and AM series (Alarm Modem 56k ). The basic functions within these series are
identical.
