Smartlink SI B Gateway

Introduction
The Smartlink SI B gateway has seven digital channels (24 Vdc) and one analog channel (4...20 mA or
0...10 Vdc) and can be connected to the devices in the Acti9 range equipped with a Ti24 interface. The data can be transmitted from the Smartlink SI B gateway to a PLC or a supervision system via a Modbus TCP/IP protocol.
The Smartlink SI B gateway channels can also be used to transmit standardized I/O. The Smartlink SI B gateway can also therefore communicate with devices (not in the Acti9 range) with or without a Ti24 link.
The devices which can be connected to the Smartlink SI B gateway include:
Acti9 products: control switch for iACT24 contactors and iATL24 impulse relays, iC60 iOF+SD24
indication auxiliary, C60 OF+SD24 indication auxiliary, RCA iC60 remote control with Ti24 interface, Reflex iC60 integrated control circuit breaker with Ti24 interface.
Meters: iEM2000T or other meters (Schneider Electric or other manufacturers) in compliance with IEC
62053-21 (minimum pulse 30 ms).
Any product (not in the Acti9 range) that has command and control information: 2 discrete 24 V outputs
and 1 discrete 24 V input.
PowerTag energy sensors.Any product using analog output (4...20 mA or 0...10 V).
The Smartlink SI B gateway is an intermediary between the supervisor and various electrical appliances. It can therefore be used to retrieve and process data received from devices and also control them. The functions available depend on the type of connected devices.
The functions of Smartlink SI B gateway are described in Smartlink SI B Function
(see page 96)

Smartlink SI B Gateway Acting as a PowerTag Concentrator
The PowerTag auxiliaries provide compact and high density metering solution with rich and accurate data for building systems (that can send energy, power, current, voltage, and power factor to Smartlink concentrator every 5 seconds). Tagging a circuit breaker with PowerTag allows you to monitor any electrical device with high flexibility (for example, you can add PowerTag energy sensors after the last­minute changes in the distribution board).
The PowerTag energy sensors provide an advanced alarm on load level of each phase to monitor and balance the loads, and sends an alarm if the electrical device is down.
The Smartlink SI B gateway behaves as a data concentrator to collect information from digital, analog, wireless auxiliaries, and downstream Modbus devices. The Smartlink SI B gateway provides monitoring and control of the digital switchboard over Modbus TCP for upstream software and via embedded webpages. The addition of new wireless auxiliaries provides affordable metering with panel size optimization.

Architecture of Smartlink System
NOTE: While using PowerTag M250/630 energy sensors, the power and energy will be signed correctly if the device is mounted on the circuit breaker at the bottom position with a Top feeding. Any other configuration can lead to inverted value.
Principle of Wireless Device Installation
The Smartlink SI B gateway is installed in such a manner that the PowerTag energy sensors are distributed around the concentrator. It is recommended to install the Smartlink SI B gateway in the center of the switchboard for maximum data quality.
For example, when the switchboard is partitioned, and if you have three-column switchboard with PowerTag energy sensors in each column, then install the Smartlink SI B gateway in the central cubicle. For more than three columns of 650 mm in the same switchboard, add one Smartlink SI B gateway for every three sections.
The system is compatible with Prisma Plus enclosure (form1 and form2), Prisma iPM form 1, Pragma, and plastic final distribution enclosures. The distance between the concentrator and PowerTag energy sensors should be smaller than 3 meters.
NOTE: For a good quality of radio frequency signal, it is recommended to install the PowerTag energy sensors in the same switchboard.
DOCA0123EN-04 09/2020 23
Architecture of Smartlink System
Maximum Number of PowerTag Energy Sensors in an Electrical Room
The wireless network configuration is used for special applications like data centers and high density metering applications. In standard building applications, use the default settings.
At data centers, thousands of PowerTag energy sensors are placed in the same environment. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the radio plan and bandwidth, in order to:
dispatch all the PowerTag energy sensors among the 16 available radio channels. It is recommended
to dispatch the Smartlink SI B gateways among the 16 channels using the manual channel selection in this section.
use as many PowerTag energy sensors as possible in the same radio channel to increase the number
of points without decreasing the radio quality. Following are the recommendations to slow down the communication period of the PowerTag energy sensors that are in the same channel, to avoid overloading the bandwidth:
Up to 100 PowerTag energy sensors by radio channel: communication period to be set to 5 secondsUp to 200 PowerTag energy sensors by radio channel: communication period to be set to 10 secondsUp to 400 PowerTag energy sensors by radio channel: communication period to be set to 20 secondsUp to 600 PowerTag energy sensors by radio channel: communication period to be set to 30 secondsUp to 1200 PowerTag energy sensors by radio channel: communication period to be set to 60
seconds
Any modification to the communication period has to be done after the commissioning of the PowerTag energy sensors is completed to avoid slowdown of the commissioning process.
NOTE: Modification in communication period does not slowdown the alarms. The voltage loss is sent immediately on demand. The communication period is used to send regular metering data (P, U, I, E, PF), not voltage loss alarms.
NOTE:
The radio channel is chosen in the wireless settings of Smartlink SI B gateway and is applied to all the
PowerTag energy sensors that are commissioned with Smartlink SI B gateway.
An Smartlink SI B gateway can manage up to 20 PowerTag energy sensors.Several Smartlink SI B gateways can use the same radio channel to communicate with PowerTag
energy sensors.
A set of Smartlink SI B gateways has to be installed and commissioned to concentrate all the needed
PowerTag energy sensors.

Safety Information
RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
Isolate the 24 V power terminals of the Smartlink SI B gateway from the power terminals connected to the Modbus network line.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
Example: The 0 V and the 24 V of a 24 Vdc power supply connected to the TRV00210 ULP communication module must be isolated from the 0V or +24 V terminals of the 24 Vdc power supply for the Smartlink SI B gateway.
General Characteristics
The Smartlink SI B gateway consumption:
Status Consumption
Device with no load 110 mA
Device under load 1.5 A maximum
DANGER
Products in the Acti9 Range
If products connected to the channels (Ti24 interfaces) of a Smartlink SI B gateway are in the Acti9 range, the consumption of a channel output is the same as the consumption of an input because the output is connected to the input. All that needs to be done is to add up the consumption of three input currents per channel.
Example: Assuming that the input current is less than 5 mA and two analog sensors are connected to Smartlink SI B gateway, the consumption of a Smartlink Ethernet Wireless device is as follows:
No-load consumption + (number of digital channels x 3 input currents) + (Analog sensor x 2) = 110 mA + (7 x (3 x 5 mA)) + (200 mA x 2) = 615 mA
Products that can be Controlled by a Channel
If products connected to the channels (Ti24 interfaces) of a Smartlink SI B gateway are in a different range, the maximum consumption of a device channel is 110 mA. The output for each channel supplies 100 mA, the digital inputs can consume up to 10 mA and the analog input can consume up to 200 mA.
Example: Assuming that the consumption of one channel is 110 mA, the consumption of one Smartlink SI B gateway is as follows:
No-load consumption + (number of digital channels x consumption per channel) + (Analog sensor x 2)
= 110 mA + (7 x 110 mA) + (200 mA x 2) = 1.3 A
Selection of the Smartlink SI B Gateway 24 Vdc Power Supply
The 24 Vdc power supply must correspond to the following criteria:
It must be located inside the electrical cabinet.It must be different from the Modbus network 24 Vdc power supply so as to maintain galvanic isolation
between the Modbus network (common to several electrical cabinets) and the 24 Vdc I/O.
It must be Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) type.Galvanic isolation between the power supply input (AC voltage) and the power supply output (DC
voltage) must be at least 3 kVac at 50 Hz.
The rated AC voltage of the power supply input must be 240 Vac +15/–20%.This power supply can be used to supply other products inside the electrical cabinet provided that these
products are double insulated or with reinforced insulation so as to preserve the power supply's SELV quality.
Phaseo ABL8MEM240xx (OVC II) or ABL7RM24025 (OVC II) modular power supplies and their accessories comply with the above recommendations. These accessories provide the redundancy and backup power supply functions and can eliminate micro-cuts on the line.
34
DOCA0123EN-04 09/2020
The upstream and downstream protection functions of the Phaseo power supply must be installed as indicated in their respective manuals.
NOTE: OVC indicates the overvoltage category.
If overvoltage category IV or III is needed in the installation, we recommend using:
Either power supplies (limited to 1 A) in the ULP (Universal Logic Plug) system with product references
54440 to 54445. See the User’s Manual, ULP Connection System, product reference TRV99100
Or use the Phaseo power supply recommended above, protecting it with an isolating transformer from
the Phaseo Optimum (ABL6TS) range or the Universal (ABT7PDU) range.
NOTE: For each of these solutions, you should refer to the respective manuals.
Protection Against a 240 Vac Fault on the Smartlink SI B Gateway 24 Vdc Input
A fuse protection is provided if a 240 Vac power supply is accidentally connected to the 24 Vdc input on the Smartlink SI B gateway power supply.

Protection Against a 240 Vac Fault on the Smartlink SI B Gateway Channels

Overview
In the event of a wiring error or electrical fault, the 240 Vac voltage may be present on the Smartlink SI B gateway channels: the neutral or phase (240 Vac) can be in contact with the Ti24 interfaces or the 24 Vdc power supply.
The insulation inside the Smartlink SI B gateway prevents propagation of this dangerous voltage (240 Vac) over the Modbus and Ethernet network.
The protection function inside the Smartlink SI B gateway eliminates the risk of fire inside the Smartlink SI B gateway.
These two protection functions (internal insulation and internal protection) cannot prevent wiring errors or electrical faults. A risk of dangerous voltage remains on the Smartlink SI B gateway channels.
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Implement a TT or TN-S earthing system.Connect the SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) power supply 0 Vdc to the protective earth to make it a
PELV (Protective Extra Low Voltage) power supply. The upstream residual current protection must be type A.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
NOTE: In the majority of cases, the presence of a PELV means an upstream residual current protection can trip, thus protecting people and property.
DANGER
ACCIDENTAL EQUIPMENT BEHAVIOR
Connect the 0 Vdc of the SELV power supply to the protective earth at a single point to avoid any stray
currents (50 Hz, harmonics, or transient currents) circulating across the 0 Vdc.
Check that products supplied by this power supply are not already connecting the 0 Vdc to the
protective earth.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
RISK OF DAMAGING THE SMARTLINK DEVICE
Connect the 0 Vdc of the SELV power supply to the protective earth at a single point to avoid any stray
currents (50 Hz, harmonics, or transient currents) circulating across the 0 Vdc.
Check that products supplied by this power supply are not already connecting the 0 Vdc to the
protective earth.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Recommendations

Overview
A star 24 Vdc distribution is preferable to a serial 24 Vdc distribution because star 24 Vdc distribution can minimize the wiring impedance.
If serial distribution is used, it is recommended to wire two serial loopback wires (see the two blue wires in the drawing below) in order to minimize impedance.
In a poor-quality electrical distribution network, it is recommended to use a Phaseo power supply from the Universal range (ABL8MEM240xx (OVC II) or ABL7RM24025 (OVC II)) which can withstand up to 500 Vac incoming and also offers galvanic insulation between the power supply AC input and the power supply DC output of 4 kVac at 50 Hz.
It is mandatory to comply with the segregation rules between low level signals (24 Vdc) and power conductors, see:

Generating Summary Data Using iOF+SD24, OF+SD24, OF24, or SD24

Overview
The electrical summary of the SD contacts or summary of the OF contacts can be generated with iOF+SD24, OF+SD24, OF24, and/or SD24 auxiliaries.
The electrical summary of the OF signals can be done by cabling in series of all OF signals and by connecting this circuit to the I1 input of a Smartlink SI B gateway channel.
The electrical summary of the SD signals can be done by cabling in series of all SD signals and by connecting this circuit to the I2 input of another Smartlink SI B gateway channel.
The OF connections (on I1 input) and the SD connections (on I2 input) cannot be connected to the same Smartlink SI B gateway channel, as the summary information dedicated to the OF signals cannot be separated from the summary information dedicated to the SD signals in Smartlink SI B gateway.
The two new auxiliaries are OF24 and SD24, where OF24 has a breaker with Open/Close status and SD24 has a breaker with Tripped status.
The summary of OF (or SD) signals can be wired in series using the A9XC2412 15-pin connector (spring cage). A maximum of 10 OF (or SD) signals can be wired in the same summary.
NOTE: For a new configuration iOF+SD24 does not exist anymore but OF+SD24 auxiliary is used instead.

Basic Commissioning of PowerTag Wireless Communication Energy Sensors

Principle of Wireless Device Commissioning
Each PowerTag energy sensor is recognized by Smartlink SI B gateway. You can enter the name of the associated electrical device and the associated rating of the associated circuit breaker to have the complete advantage of the load monitoring feature.
The PowerTag energy sensors are commissioned with one Smartlink SI B gateway that is installed in the same switchboard. You can configure up to 20 PowerTag energy sensors. It is recommended to commission the PowerTag energy sensors with Smartlink SI B gateway before the panel site installation.
NOTE: If you install a Wi-Fi access point in an electrical room right above the panel after commissioning of the PowerTag energy sensors, there is a possibility of overlapping of the frequencies of the data exchange between the PowerTag energy sensors and the Smartlink SI B gateway. Hence, it is recommended to check whether the RF signal quality is good between the PowerTag energy sensors and the Smartlink SI B gateway if Wi-Fi is used in an electrical room. However, if there is an issue in RF signal quality due to Wi-Fi overlapping, it is easy to change the channel of communication manually to a new frequency in the Diagnostics → Communication → Wireless Network Quality Indicators webpage and check the RF signal quality after few seconds.
To avoid any interference issues, it is recommended to follow the rules below:
1. Place the Smartlink SI B gateway inside the panel along with the associated PowerTag energy sensors.
2. Make sure that the closest Wi-Fi access point is at least three meters away from the panel.
Commissioning the Wireless Communication Devices
The configuration of the wireless communication devices (PowerTag energy sensors) is done with Smartlink SI B webpage.
Step Description
1 Launch the Smartlink SI B webpage in the web browser.
2 Login with user name and password.
3 Click Settings → Devices → Wireless Devices to configure the PowerTag energy sensors.
4 Click Start Scanning to discover the wireless communication devices.
Result: Displays the discovered devices and assigns the Modbus slave ID to each PowerTag. Each supervision system can read this address inside the Smartlink SI B gateway. The Modbus slave ID ranges from 150 through 220.
NOTE: The Smartlink SI B gateway can discover up to 20 wireless devices.
5 Select any wireless communication device and click Locate to find the device in the panel.
Result: The associated device blinks in the panel.

DOCA0123EN-04 09/2020 79
.
Getting Started with Smartlink SI B Gateway
NOTE: If you have multiple panels and if each panel has PowerTag energy sensors, then it is recommended to switch on power and commission each Smartlink SI B gateway one by one. This helps to discover only the required wireless communication devices specific to each Smartlink SI B gateway and avoids discovering the long list of devices. If other Smartlink SI B gateways are powered on while you commission a new Smartlink SI B gateway, the new Smartlink SI B gateway automatically selects the less polluted radio channel, and creates its network on a different channel than the previous Smartlink SI B gateways. This avoids having all the PowerTag energy sensors on the same radio channel. However, if all panels are powered on and commissioned simultaneously, then locate only the required PowerTag energy sensors in multiple panels and reject the ones you do not want to configure with the panel currently commissioned. All the rejected PowerTag energy sensors can be auto-discovered again from another Smartlink SI B gateway without any issues.

At data centers, thousands of PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors are placed in the same environment. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the radio plan and bandwidth, in order to:
dispatch all the PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors among the 16 available radio
channels. It is recommended to dispatch the Smartlink SI B gateways among the 16 channels using the manual channel selection in this section.
use as many PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors as possible in the same radio channel
to increase the number of points without decreasing the radio quality. Following are the recommendations to slow down the communication period of the PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors that are in the same channel, to avoid overloading the bandwidth:
Up to 100 PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors by radio channel: communication
period to be set to 5 seconds
Up to 200 PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors by radio channel: communication
period to be set to 10 seconds
Up to 400 PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors by radio channel: communication
period to be set to 20 seconds
Up to 600 PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors by radio channel: communication
period to be set to 30 seconds
Up to 1200 PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors by radio channel: communication
period to be set to 60 seconds
Any modification to the communication period has to be done after the commissioning of the PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors is completed to avoid slowdown of the commissioning process.
NOTE: Modification in communication period does not slowdown the alarms. The voltage loss is sent immediately on demand. The communication period is used to send regular metering data (P, U, I, E, PF), not voltage loss alarms.
NOTE:
The radio channel is chosen in the wireless settings of Smartlink SI B gateway and is applied to all the
PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors that are commissioned with Smartlink SI B gateway.
A Smartlink SI B gateway can manage up to 20 PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors.Several Smartlink SI B gateways can use the same radio channel to communicate with PowerTag
wireless communication energy sensors.
A set of Smartlink SI B gateways has to be installed and commissioned to concentrate all the needed
PowerTag wireless communication energy sensors.

Ethernet Principle

Overview
Ethernet is a data link and physical layer protocol defined by IEEE 802 specification that connects PC or other Ethernet devices. Ethernet is an asynchronous Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision detection (referred as CSMA/CD) protocol. Carrier Sense means that the hosts can detect whether the medium (coaxial cable) is idle or busy. Multiple Access means that multiple hosts can be connected to the common medium. Collision Detection means that a host detects whether its transmission has collided with the transmission of another host (or hosts).
The Smartlink SI B gateway can be connected to a PC over Ethernet. The Smartlink SI B gateway provides a Modbus TCP/IP gateway over Ethernet to enable Modbus TCP communication from a Modbus TCP master to any Modbus slave devices connected to it.
The maximum active Modbus TCP client connection is eight.
The Smartlink SI B gateway has an embedded web server (webpage).
The settings of the Ethernet communication are done through Smartlink SI B webpages.
The maximum active HTTP connection is five.

Smartlink SI B Gateway Function

Modbus TCP/IP Server
The Smartlink SI B gateway provides a Modbus TCP server to give access to all its data and configuration parameters. The Smartlink SI B gateway has a fixed unit ID of 255. The Modbus data mapping and read or write accesses is identical to RS485 for same functions or data. In other words, the Modbus data mapping is a subset of RS485 data mapping (at least for digital channels related accesses).
Modbus TCP/IP Gateway
The Modbus TCP/IP gateway on Smartlink SI B gateway enables communication between a Modbus TCP/IP client connected to the TCP/IP port on the Smartlink SI B gateway and any Modbus slave devices connected to the Smartlink SI B gateway. The Smartlink SI B gateway provides a simple and transparent interface between Ethernet based networks and field devices. This includes meters, monitors, protective relays, trip units, motor controls, and other devices that communicate using Modbus RS485 slave.
The Smartlink SI B gateway can manage up to eight Modbus RS485 slaves. The address of these slaves could be from 1 to 149 (the default address ranges from 1 through 8).
Modbus communication parameters are:
Data rate (in Baud) 9,600 and 19,200 (19,200 is the default data rate).Parity
Even and one stop bit.Odd and one stop bit.No Parity (parity bit eliminated) two stop bits are needed.

Modbus Master Principle

Overview
The Modbus protocol exchanges data using a request/response mechanism between a master and a slave. The master/slave principle is a type of communication protocol in which a device (the master) controls one or more devices (the slaves). A standard Modbus network consists of one master and up to 31 slaves.
NOTE: For more information, a detailed description of the Modbus protocol is available on
www.modbus.org
Characteristics of the Master/Slave Principle
The master/slave principle has the following characteristics:
Only one master at a time is connected to the network.Only the master can launch communication and send requests to slaves.The master can address each slave individually using its dedicated address or all slaves simultaneously
using address 0.
The slaves can only send responses to the master.Slaves cannot launch communication with either the master, or the other slaves.
Master/Slave Communication Modes
The Modbus protocol can exchange data using two communication modes:
Request/response modeBroadcast mode
The Smartlink SI B gateway support Modbus protocol as master and can support up to eight Modbus slave devices as Acti9 Smartlink RS485. Each Acti9 Smartlink RS485 has a Modbus address (1 to 99), and concentrates data from connected devices on its 11 channels (Ti24 interface).
The states and orders for each device connected (with Ti24 interface) to Smartlink SI B gateway are accessible in registers whose address depends on the digital channels (1 to 7) on which the device is connected.
.
Request/Response Mode
In request/response mode, the master addresses one slave using the slave's dedicated address. The slave processes the request, then responds to the master.
Broadcast Mode
In broadcast mode, the master addresses all the slaves using address 0. Slaves do not respond to broadcast messages.
Turnaround Time
The turnaround time Tr is the time between the end of receipt of a request and sending the response.
The typical value of the turnaround time Tr is less than 10 ms with the Modbus protocol.
Data Exchange
The Modbus protocol uses two data types:
Bits16-bit words called registers
Each register has a register number. Each data type (bit or register) has a 16-bit address.
Messages exchanged with the Modbus protocol contain the address of the data to be processed.
98
DOCA0123EN-04 09/2020
Frames
All frames exchanged with the Modbus protocol are 256 bytes maximum and consist of 4 fields:
Field Definition Size Description
1 Slave number 1 byte Destination of the request
2 Function code 1 byte Modbus TCP/IP Function
3
4 Check 2 bytes CRC16 (to check transmission errors)
DataSub-function code
n bytes
0: broadcast (all slaves are affected)1...149: unique destination
(see page 173)
Request or response dataSub-function code
Data Format
The data format is configured as shown below according to Modbus RTU protocol:
Start Data Parity Stop
1 bit 8 bits 1 bit 1 bit
NOTE: The Modbus RTU data format is composed of 11 bits. Even parity is required, other modes (odd parity, no parity) may be also used. If no parity is implemented in the Modbus Master, an additional stop bit must be transmitted by the Modbus Master to fill out the character frame to a full 11 bit asynchronous character.
NOTE: For more information, a detailed description of the Modbus protocol is available on
www.modbus.org
