Note: ProTalk modules are compatible with common Quantum programming applications,
including Concept and Unity Pro. For all other programming applications, please contact technical
support.

1.2 Deployment Checklist

These steps are used for the installation of the ProTalk module.
The example programs are designed to allow the module and the process or to

communicate with each other over the backplane. After this initial installation,
additional steps may be needed for the specific needs of the application.

These steps must be completed in the following order:
1 Install the ProSoft Configuration Builder software on the PC

Important: Earlier versions of ProSoft Configuration Builder do not support the Hot Standby
(HSBY) feature on the PTQ-104C module. To make full use of the HSBY feature, please download
the latest version of ProSoft Configuration Builder and review the readme files from the ProSoft
Technology website at www.prosoft-technology.com/pcb.

2 Install the ProTalk module in the rack
3 Configure the module
4 Configure the 104 Client including client commands
5 Configure the processor
6 Verify communication between the processor and the module

1.3 Installing the ProTalk Module i n the Quantum Rack

1 Place the Module in the Quantum Rack. The ProTalk module must be placed

in the same rack as the processor.

2 Tilt the module at a 45° angle and align the pegs at the top of the module with

slots on the backplane.

3 Push the module into place until it seats firmly in the backplane.

Caution: The PTQ module is hot-swappable; it can be installed and removed while the rack is
powered up. Do not assume that this is the case for all types of modules unless the user manual
for the product explicitly states that the module is hot-swappable. Failure to observe this precaution
could result in damage to the module and any equipment connected to it.

If there is no response from the module, follow these steps:
1 Click to configure the connection. On the Connection Setup dialog box, select

a valid com port or other connection type supported by the module.

2 Verify that the null modem cable is connected properly between the

computer’s serial port and the module. A regular serial cable will not work.

3 On computers with more than one serial port, verify that the communication

program is connected to the same port that is connected to the module.

4 If a connection is still not established, contact ProSoft Technology for

assistance.

1.5.1 Ethernet Configuration

Use this procedure to configure the Ethernet settings for the module. An IP
address, subnet mask and module address must be assigned. After com pleting
this step, the module can be connected with an Ethernet cable.

1 Determine the network settings for the module, with the help of the network

administrator if necessary. The following information is needed:

o IP Address (fixed IP required) _____ . _____ . _____ . _____
o Subnet Mask _____ . _____ . _____ . _____
o Gateway Address _____ . _____ . _____ . _____

Note: The module Address is optional, and is not required for networks that do not use a default
module.

HSBY Note: Hot Standby Primary IP is entered. The Standby IP address will always be the

Primary IP address plus 1.

NOM. This module type provides extended communication capabilities for the

Quantum system, and allows communication between the PLC and the PTQ
module without requiring additional programming. Click OK.

2 Right click the GEN NOM icon and select Open Module.

3 Enter the module personality value. The correct value for ProTalk modules is

1098 decimal (044A hex).

4 Before the project can be saved in Unity Pro, the modifications must be

validated. Open the E

DIT menu, and choose VALIDATE. If no errors are

reported, the project can be saved.

2.3 Building the Project

Whenever the configuration of the PTQ module or the processor is updated, the
changed configuration must be imported from the module. The project must be
built (compiled) before downloading it to the processor.

Note: The following steps show how to build the project in Unity Pro. This is not intended to
provide detailed information on using Unity Pro, or debugging the programs. Refer to the
documentation for the processor and for Unity Pro for specialized information.

To build (compile) the project

1 Review the elements of the project in the Project Browser.
2 When the project is ready to be downloaded, open the B

choose R

EBUILD ALL PROJECT. This action builds (compiles) the project into a

form the processor can use to execute the instructions in the project file. This
task may take several minutes, depending on the complexity of the project
and the resources available on the PC.

3 As the project is built, Unity Pro reports its process in a Progress

with details appearing in a pane at the bottom of the window. The following
illustration shows the build process under way.

UILD menu, and

dialog box,

After the build process is completed successfully, the next step is to download
the compiled project to the processor.

2.4 Connecting a PC to the Processor

The next step is to connect to the processor so the project file can be
downloaded. The processor uses this project file to communicate over the
backplane to modules identified in the project file.

Note: If a connection between the PC to the processor has not been established, verify the port
drivers are installed and are available to Unity Pro.

Verifying the address and driver settings in Unity Pro

1 Open the PLC menu, and choose STANDARD MODE. This action turns off the

PLC Simulator. It allows the user to communicate directly with the Quantum
or Unity hardware.

2 Open the PLC

Address dialog box. Open the M

menu, and choose SET ADDRESS... This action opens the Set

EDIA dropdown list and choose the

connection type (TCPIP or USB).

3 If the MEDIA dr opdown list does not contain the desired connection method,

click the C

OMMUNICATION PARAMETERS butt on in the PLC area of the dialog

box. This action opens the PLC Communication Parameters dialog box.

4 Click the D

RIVER SETTINGS button to open the SCHNEIDER Drivers

management Properties dialog box.

5 Click the I

NSTALL/UPDATE button to specify the location of the Setup.exe file

containing the drivers to use. The Unity Pro installation disks will be needed
for this step.

6 Click the B

ROWSE button to locate the Setup.exe file to execute, and execute

the setup program. After the installation, restart the PC. Refer to the
Schneider Electric documentation for more information on installing drivers
for Unity Pro.

2.4.1 Connecting to the Processor with TCP/IP

The next step is to download (copy) the project file to the processor. The
following steps demonstrate how to use an Ethernet cable connected from the
Processor to the PC through an Ethernet hub or switch. Other connection
methods may also be available, depending on the hardware configuration of the
processor and the communication drivers installed in Unity Pro.

1 Connect the PC and the processor to an Ethernet hub.
2 Open the PLC

Important: The Set Address dialog box is divided into two areas. Enter the address and media
type in the PLC area of the dialog box, not the SIMULATOR area.

3 Enter the IP address in the address field. In the MEDIA dr opdown list, choose

‘TCPIP’.

4 Click the

menu, and select SET ADDRESS.

TEST CONNECTION button to verify that the settings.

2.5 Downloading the Project to the Processor

1 Open the PLC menu and then choose CONNECT. This action opens a

connection between the Unity Pro software and the processor, using the
address and media type settings that were configured in the previous step.

2 On the PLC

the

TRANSFER PROJECT TO PLC dialog box. If the PLC needs to go to "Ru n"

mode immediately after the transfer is complete, select (check) the PLC

AFTER

menu, choose TRANSFER PROJECT TO PLC. This action opens

TRANSFER check box.

3 Click the TRANSFER button to download the project to the processor. As the

project is transferred, Unity Pro reports its process in a P

ROGRESS dialog box,

with details appearing in a pane at the bottom of the window.
Place the processor in Run mode when the transfer completes.
