Enwatch is a distributed network system providing 16 channels of analog
inputs together with 4 trigger channels. The unit includes signal conditioning
and analog to digital conversion. It allows you to connect 16 two-wire ICP or
other sensors into your Emonitor Online system. Each Enwatch unit is a
microprocessor-based system, complete with network controller that carries
out data acquisition tasks as directed by an Emonitor unload station. A typical
diagram for an Enwatch unit is shown in Figure 1.1, below.

The Enwatch unit responds to all relevant network data exchanges as defined
by the Ethernet protocol using the UDP/IP standard. In addition, there is a
comprehensive on-board monitor program that can exercise all functions via
the on-board serial RS232 port.

2 Installing the Enwatch
Installation
The Enwatch unit is easy to install. The enclosure is mounted using four
screws. Cables are terminated on removable screw terminal blocks, making
installation and service simple. Network cables are terminated on the board
using a a standard RJ-45 connector.
Each Enwatch board has four status LEDs to monitor system activity. In the
unlikely event of a system problem, a portable PC can be used to diagnose the
problem using the RS-232 serial interface on each Enwatch board.
Prior to installation, the only set-up required is to assign an IP address, Subnet
Mask, and Gateway IP address (if available) to the node. This must be a unique
address on the network. You assign the IP address by connecting a terminal
(or PC in terminal mode) to the on-board RS-232 port and using the on-board
monitor program. See “Setting Up an Enwatch Unit” on page 11 for more
information.
Electrical
The circuit board is a completely self-contained 16-channel analog input to
Ethernet interface, including power regulation and local communication
facilities. A block diagram of the board is shown in Figure 1.1 on page 1. Each
block of the diagram is described below.
• ICP interface - Each of the 16 channels has its own ICP interface that
is capable of powering a typical two-wire ICP transducer. The nominal
voltage is 24 V with a constant current of 3.6 mA. A typical transducer
has a bias voltage value of around 11 V, so that the system can
accommodate a full ±10V input range. The ICP interface can be
disabled for AC and DC coupling of voltage signals.
• Multiplexer - The multiplexer circuit selects one of the 16 input
channels under software control. All inputs are over-voltage and ESD
protected.
• High pass filters - Four software-programmable high-pass filters
(0.36 Hz, 2.67 Hz, 5.3 Hz, and 23.8 Hz) are available to remove
unwanted low frequency signals.
• Integrator - An on-board hardware integrator is available for getting a
velocity measurement from an accelerometer, as well as displacement
from a velocity sensor. The host software can perform a second level of
integration if required.
• Spike Energy™ function (gSE™) - gSE provides a conditioned
signal suitable for measurement of bearing condition.
• Anti-aliasing filter - This filter removes high-frequency components
from the incoming analog signal that might alias back into the sampled
signal, resulting in incorrect data in the spectrum. The filter has a very
high roll-off and removes all alias effects in standard sampling/spectral
analysis applications.
Publication GMSI10-UM031C-EN-E - January 2009
Installing the Enwatch 3
• Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) - The ADC samples up to
51.2 kHz and has 16-bit resolution, providing a theoretical dynamic
range of 96 dB.
• Clock generator - The timer varies the sampling rate under
microprocessor control. Sampling can be synchronized to one of 4
external triggers (typically a once-per-rev TTL signal from a rotating
shaft). This system can also take a preprogrammed number of samples
per revolution. The external trigger acts as a tachometer to determine
shaft speed. Pre and post-trigger functions are available.
• Gain amplifier - The Enwatch unit automatically sets the input gain in
auto-range mode as each channel is selected by the multiplexer.
• Microprocessor subsystem - This comprises the microprocessor,
flash memory, and SRAM memory. The microprocessor controls the
Enwatch unit under instructions stored in the flash memory. The SRAM
memory acts as a temporary data storage area if buffering is required
before data is transferred over the network.
• Watchdog - The microprocessor subsystem incorporates a watchdog
facility that, if a power glitch or other external effect interrupts the
system, automatically resets without the need for user intervention.
• Ethernet controller/buffer memory/10Base-T - These functions
control data transfer over the Ethernet network. The system uses the
UDP/IP standard protocol and implements 10 Base-T as the physical
network layer.
• Power regulation - Input DC power is derived from an AC to DC
converter (not shown in Figure 1.1) and the Power Regulation function
provides the secondary DC voltages as required.

Notes:
1. A supply voltage is available on pin 1 of the connector to power an
external trigger device. The voltage is equal to the voltage of the
incoming power supply to the board (on connector J9).
2. The external trigger is compatible with a CMOS/TTL logic level (5 V
logic). Alternatively, any voltage input in the range 5 to 24 V can be
accommodated. The trigger can be isolated or non-isolated.
Analog Input Configuration
The 16 analog inputs provide you three options for signal coupling using a
3-way configurable jumper. The three positions are described in Table 1.11.

Trigger Isolation Jumpers
Four jumpers, JP17 to JP20, are sited on the board to enable the four trigger
inputs to be isolated or non-isolated. Non-isolated means the common of the
trigger input can be connected to the common of the Enwatch unit. With a
jumper removed, the trigger is isolated. Table 1.13 summarizes the jumper
positions.

IMPORTANT
If an external sensor is to be used that is powered from pin
1 of J3, J4, J5 or J6, then the jumper corresponding to the
trigger channel must be inserted to provide a ground return
path for the sensor power.
Normal Operation versus Monitor Mode
The Enwatch unit incorporates an on-board monitor program for checking
the unit and modifying the system’s IP address. Inserting a jumper in JP21
enters into monitor mode.

Serial Port (RS-232)
An RS-232 compatible serial port is available on connector J11 for providing
local communication with the board (independent of the Ethernet network).
Only RXD and TXD lines are supported, and so a null modem cable must be
used. An on-board software monitor is provided to communicate through the
serial port.
If you do not use a 9-pin female to female null modem cable, the
recommended cable connection to a PC is shown in Table 1.15.

Supply Voltage
Incoming supply voltage to the power supply is 80 to 240 VAC / 50 or 60 Hz.
The power supply should be rated for a minimum of 1 A. If you have an
ISSUE F board, set the AC to DC power supply output voltage to 9 VDC. All
ISSUE G boards and higher, require a 24 VDC power supply. The power
supply that comes with the ISSUE G boards is pre set to 24 VDC and should
not be adjusted.
WARNING
TIP
Never attempt to connect the ISSUE F board to a 24V
power supply as doing this will damage the board. Always
ensure you have the proper power supply for the board
ISSUE you are using. The 24VDC power supply for ISSUE
G and higher boards has a yellow label that is marked
24VDC. The 12VDC power supply for ISSUE F boards
has a blue label that is marked 12VDC.
The ISSUE letter is located on the board. ISSUE F is
located at the bottom edge of the board near the J2
connector. See Figure 1.2 on page 4.
Publication GMSI10-UM031C-EN-E - January 2009
The ISSUE letter for ISSUE G and higher boards is
located in the upper left corner of the board, near the J8
connector.
