1. 1. About the OMR Analog Output Modules

The OMR Series provides analog output modules, which can convert the digital command to analog. The basic features of each module are shown here.

• OMR-6021 : analog signal output module with safety functions

• OMR-6024 : 4 channel analog output module

1. 2. Overview of OMR -6021

What is OMR-6021 ?

OMR-6021 is an analog signal output module. It receives the digital command from host computer through RS-485 network. The format of the digital value can be engineering units, hexadecimal format or percentage of full-scale range(FSR). A microprocessor is used to convert the digital command to digital value to send to DAC. The DAC converts the digital value into analog form. The analog output can be either voltage or current output.

The OMR -6021 is designed for safety. It provides many safety functions such as isolation, watchdog, and power on safe value. The opto -isolators provide 5000Vrms isolation voltage to isolate the digital section and the remote controlled analog equipments. The damage of power surges is avoided.

Another safety function is the watchdog. Whenever the host is loss contact with the remote OMR module, or the microprocessor is down, the module will reset itself and send the safety value to the analog output therefore the industry safety is guarantee. The safety value / power-up value can be set by configuration software.

The analog output can be read back through the module‘s ADC. Which can monitor the ’real‘ output of the device. The host can check the digital command and the real output to avoid short circuits. The slew rate of the output signal is also controllable by software.

2. 2.Initializing a Brand New Module

Objective of Initializing a Brand New OMR

All OMR modules, except OMR-6520 and OMR-6510, in a RS -485 network must have a unique address ID. Every brand-new OMR has a factory default setting as following:

• Address ID is 01.

• Baud rate is 9600 bps

• Check-sum disable

• Host Watchdog timer is disable

Therefore, to configure the brand new OMR before using is necessary to av oid conflicting address. The baud rate may also be changed according to user‘s requirements.

The initialization procedures of a brand new OMR are shown in the following sections.

Default State

The OMR modules must be set at Default State when you want to change the default settings, including the ID address, baud rate, check-sum status etc. All OMR modules have a special pin labeled as DEFAULT*. The module will be in Default State if the DEFAULT* pin is shorted to ground when power ON. Under this stat e, the default configuration is set as following:

• Address ID is 00.

• Baud rate is 9600 bps.

• Check-sum disable.

• Watchdog timer is disabling.

Therefore, the configuration of the host and the module can be easily set identically and initializing a module will be possible no matter what configuration is set under operating state.

3. Command Set

3. 1. Command and Response

Introduction

The OMR command is composed by numbers of characteristics, including the leading code, address ID, the variables, the optional check-sum bytes, and a carriage return to indicate the end of a command. The host computer can only command only one OMR module except those synchronized commands with wildcard address “**”. The OMR may or may not give response to the command. The host should check the response to handshak e with the modules.

Document Conventions

The following syntax conventions describe the OMR commands in this manual.

(Leading Code) Leading Code is the first characteristic of the OMR

command. All OMR commands need a command leading code, such as %,$,#,@, ...etc.

1- character

(Addr) Module’s address ID, the value is in the range of 00 - FF

(Hex).

2- character (Command Variable) [Data] Some commands need additional data.

[Checksum] Checksum in brackets indicate optional parameter,

< > Identifies a control code character, such as <CR> for

Command codes or value of variables.

Variable length

only if checksum is enabled then this field is required.

2- character

carriage return, its value is 0x0D. 1- character

Format of OMR Commands

(Leading Code)(Addr)(Command)[Data] [Checksum]<CR>

When checksum is enabled then [Checksum] is needed, it is 2-character. Both command and response must append the checksum characters.

How to calculate checksum value ?

[Checksum] = ((LeadingCode)+(Addr)+(Command)+[Data]) MOD 0x100

Example 1: checksum is disabled

User Command : $012<CR>

!01400600<CR>

$ 01 : Address 2 : Command (Read Configuration)

: LeadingCode

Command Set 3-1

Page 14

Response :

<CR> : Carriage return 0x0D

Example 2: checksum is enabled

User Command : $012B7<CR>

!01400600AC<CR>

: LeadingCode

01 : Address 2 : Command (Read Configuration) B7 : Checksum value <CR> : Carriage return 0x0D

‘$’ = 0x24 ‘0’ = 0x30 ‘1’ = 0x31 ‘2’ = 0x32

B7 = ( 0x24 + 0x30 + 0x31 + 0x32 ) MOD 0x100

‘!’ = 0x24 ‘0’ = 0x30 ‘1’ = 0x31 ‘4’ = 0x34 ‘6’ = 0x36

AC = ( 0x24 + 0x30 + 0x31 + 0x34 + 0x30 + 0x30 + 0x36 + 0x30 + 0x30 ) MOD 0x100

Note : 1. There is no spacing between the command words and the checksum characters.

2. Every command follows a <CR> carriage return for ending.

3. The checksum characters are optional.

Response of OMR Commands

The response message depends on versatile OMR command. The response is composed with a few characteristics, including leading code, variables, and carriage return for ending. There are two categories of leading code for response message, ”!“ or ”>“ means valid command and ”?“ means invalid. By checking the response message, user can monitor the command and verify if it is valid or not.

Note : Under the following conditions, there will have no response message.

1. The specified address ID is not exist.

2. Syntax error.

3. Communication error.

4. Some special commands does not have response message.

3. 2. Summary of Command Set

There are three categories of OMR commands. The first is the general commands, including set configuration command, read configuration, reset, read module‘s name or firmware version, etc. Every OMR can response to the general commands. The seco nd is the functional commands, which depends on functions of each module. Not every module can execute all function commands. The third is the special commands including functions about the programmable watchdog timer, safe values, and the programmable leading code. All the commands used in the OMR analog output module are list in the following table.

4. Data Format

4. 1. Unit Conversion

The data value in the command of th e analog output module is corresponding to the amplitude of the physical analog signal. The user should understand the data format to represent a analog signal by an ASCII string. The physical meaning of a data depends on both the unit conversion and the value. The unit conversion of the digits value can be configured by the setting configuration command. Three types of unit conversion are used in analog output modules.

1. Engineering units

2. Percent of FSR (Full Scale Range)

3. Hexdecimal

4. 2. Engineering Units

The date is in engineering unit when the bit 1 and 0 of the configuration register are ‘00’. The data string is composited by 6 characters. Because the output of OMR-6021 is unipolar, the value is always positive. The meaning of the value depends on the output range setting too. When the output range is set to 0~10V, the unit of the value is in ‘Volts’. When the output range is set to 0~20mA or 4~20mA, the unit of the value is in ‘mA’.

• Set bit 1 and bit 0 of data format variable to “00” means the data is represented in engineering units.

• Data string is fixed length of 6 characters. The value is composed of five decimal digits with a decimal fixed

point.

• Two digits present the integer part and three present the fraction.

Example 4.2.1:

• If the output range is set as 0 to 20 mA

• The desired analog output value is +5.678 mA

The data value should be : 05.678<CR>

Example 4.2.2:

• If the output range is set as 0 to 10 V

• The desired analog output value is +2.345 V

The data value should be : 02.345<CR>

4. 3. Percent of FSR

The date is in percent of FSR(Full Scale Range) when the bit 1 and 0 of the configuration register are ‘01’. The data string is composited by 6 characters. Because the output of OMR-6021 is unipolar, the value is always positive. The value is unit-less and depends on the output range setting too.

• Set bit 1 and bit 0 of data format variable to “01” means the data is represented in percent of FSR.

• Data string is fixed length of 6 characters. The value is composed of five decimal digits with a decimal fixed

point.

Page 42

• Three digits present the integer part and two digits present the fraction

• Maximum resolution is 0.2%.

Example 4.3.1 :

• If the output range is set as 0 to 20 mA

• The desired analog output current is 10 mA

The data value should be : 050.00<CR> 10 mA / 20 mA = 50.00 %

Example 4.3.2 :

• If the output range is set as 4 to 20 mA

• The desired analog output current is 10 mA

The data value should be : 037.50<CR> (10 mA - 4 mA ) / (20 mA - 4mA) = 37.50 %

4. 4. Hexdecimal Format

The data is in hexdecimal format as the bit 1 and 0 are set as ‘10’. The data string length is 3 characters. It is equivilant to 12 binary bits. Because the output of OMR-6021 is unipolar, the maximum value of the digits is FFF(H) and the minimum value of the digits is 000(H). As the output range is set to 0~20mA, the value ‘FFF(H)’ represents 20mA and ‘000(H)’ represents 0mA. Similarily, as the output range is set to 4~20mA, the value ‘FFF(H)’ represents 20mA and ‘000(H)’ represents 4mA.

Example 4.3.1 :

• If the output range is set as 0 to 20 mA

• The desired analog output current is 10 mA

Two’s complement hexdecimal : 7FF<CR>
