Safety notices

This manual contains information that must be observed to ensure your personal safety and to prevent property damage. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices referring to property damage only, have no safety alert symbol. Depending on the hazard level, warnings are displayed in descending order as follows:.

Danger

indicates that death or serious injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.

Warning

indicates that death or serious injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution

with a warning triangle indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.

Caution

without a warning triangle means that material damage can occur if the appropriate precautions are not aken.

Notice

means an undesirable result or state can occur if the corresponding instruction is not followed.

In the event of a number of levels of danger prevailing simultaneously, the warning corresponding to the highest level of danger is always used. A warning with a warning triangle indicating risk of physical injury may also include a warning of the risk of damage to property.

Our products are also continuously developed further with regard to IT security. We therefore recommend that you keep yourself informed about updates and upgrades for our products and always use the latest version of each product. For information on this topic, refer to: Industry Online Support (http://www.siemens.com/automation/csi_de_WW). You can register for a product-specific newsletter here.

For the safe operation of a plant/machine, however, it is also necessary to integrate the automation components into an overall IT security concept for the entire plant/machine which corresponds to state-of-the-art IT technology. You can find information on this at: Industrial Security (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).

Products used from other manufacturers should also be taken into account here.

Network security

In order to protect the entire plant from attack ding measures must be taken.

Caution

Failures or damage to your overall system

Unauthorized persons can gain entry into your network via the Ethernet ports and make changes to the SICLOCK TC100 parameterization. This can result in the time being adjusted. Individual or even all clients to be synchronized can be removed from the synchronization cycle. This has the potential to cause failures or damage throughout the plant.

TC100 Operating Instructions

Description 2

Modern automation systems are made up of a multitude of computers, controllers and systems, that exchange data with one another. In order to operate such systems in real time, it is absolutely essential to synchronize the clock times of all the components involved. This particularly applies to error tracing if event messages are time stamped, and cause and effect have to be identified by a reliable chronological order.

As a central plant clock, SICLOCK TC100 supplies the various plant components with a precise, reliable clock time, which is usually obtained from one or more external synchronizations with official or statutory times of day, usually GPS or DCF77 radio clocks.

SICLOCK TC100 distributes the time solely via Ethernet.

Note

Use one single device as the central clock for the whole plant, which supplies the clock time to all the other devices.

Exception: Redundant operation of the central plant clock

SICLOCK

TC100 Operating Instructions

2.2 External synchronization

SICLOCK TC100 can be externally synchronized to the applicable, statutory national time or GMT in order to automate or minimize manual interventions, such as daylight saving time changes and leap seconds.

External synchronizations can be GPS or DCF77 radio clocks, servers (e.g. the time signal from an NTP server), SICLOCK TC400 devices, SICLOCK TC100 devices or other signal sources. They are connected to the RADIO CLOCK of the device.

The Ethernet port supports NTP servers as external synchronizations.

Possible RADIO CLOCKS are:

• SICLOCK GPS1000

• SICLOCK GPSDEC

(SICLOCK GPSDEC has been discontinued, please use SICLOCK GPS1000)

2.3.1 Plant synchronization via Ethernet

Physical access

An Ethernet port with the following specification is provided to enable physical access to the network:

• 100Base-TX via RJ-45 socket

Protocols

The following protocols are implemented:

• NTP server according to RFC2030

− Any/unicast mode

− Any/unicast mode with local time

− Multicast mode

− Multicast mode with local time

• Time synchronization in the SIMATIC procedure

TC100 Operating Instructions

2.4 Time management

The SICLOCK TC100 has a range of functions for generating the valid plant time from the external synchronization. This includes the option of setting times zones and the parameterizable generation of daylight saving.

Time security through protected synchronization

If a discontinuity of longer than five seconds occurs in the external synchronization, the protected synchronization is activated, and the synchronization is not executed for safety reasons.

Time security through microstep mode

A time difference between the external synchronization and the device, such as can occur as the result of a brief loss of loss of radio contact or switching to a substitute synchronization, is run down automatically in microstep mode that is imperceptible to the operation of the plant. No time jump occurs.

Description

More detailed information and the options for parameter assignment for protected synchronization and microstep mode are described in the chapter

Synchronization (Chapter 9.3.2).

Note

Parameterize the plant time at one single point within the synchronization hierarchy, ideally on the central plant clock.

2.5 Commissioning

Commissioning can be subdivided into the following steps:

1. Mounting (Chapter 5)

2. Connection (Chapter 6)

3. Assignment of an IP address to the device

Parameter assignment and operation of the device (Chapter 8)

4. Parameter assignment (Chapter 9)

With few exceptions, the settings are made with the Configuration Tool, see Configuration Tool (Chapter 7).

Description

2.6 Redundancy

Redundant external synchronization

Up to four time servers can be run on the SICLOCK TC100 for external synchronization via NTP. However, they must all be in the same IP network.

Radio clocks cannot be connected redundantly to a SICLOCK TC100.

The order of priority among the external synchronizations (radio clock or NTP server), and thus the redundancy behavior, can be set with parameters, see

Redundancy (Chapter 9.1.3).

Redundant SICLOCK TC100 central plant clocks

A number of SICLOCK TC100s can be run as redundant time servers in a single network.

You will find more detailed information in the chapters Configuration Tool (Chapter 7) and Parameter table (Chapter 10).

You can find more information on redundancy in „Application Note 01

08“ on http://www.siemens.com/siclock under "FAQ".

General notes on operation

Caution

The device is approved for operation in closed rooms only. The guarantee is void if this stipulation is ignored.

Condensation

When transporting the device at low temperatures, ensure that no moisture gets on or into the device. This also applies if the device is subjected to extreme changes in temperature.

Commissioning

Allow the device to slowly adjust to room temperature before commissioning the device. However, do not expose the device to direct heat radiation. In the event of greater temperature differences, harmful condensation can be avoided by leaving the device in its transport packaging.

If condensation develops, wait 12 hours before you switch on the device (for a temperature difference of 20°C). For greater temperature differences, the waiting time is correspondingly longer.

Avoid extreme ambient conditions. Protect your device against dust, moisture and heat. Refer to Technical data (Chapter 13).

Do not place the device in direct sunlight.

8.2 Operation and parameter assignment

8.2.1 One-button operation with the MODE button

The MODE button enables restricted operation and important parameters to be read out directly on the device. This mainly involves the network settings required to commission the device.

There are three different operational actions for the MODE button:

Short button press A definite button press, but for less than 3 seconds.

As a rule, a short button press is used to "turn the page". An action that can be executed by a short button press is indicated by a short arrow pointing to the right in the top right-hand corner of the display.

See examples 1 to 4.

Long button press: A definite button press for longer than 3 seconds.

The action addressed by the long button press is executed after this time has elapsed. As a rule, a long button press is used to "accept" a setting. An action that can be executed by a long button press is indicated by a long arrow pointing to the right in the bottom right-hand corner of the display.

See examples 1 to 4.

No button press:: If there is no button press for 45 seconds, the operating level is

exited automatically.

See example 4.

The servers are queried regularly, and a preferred server is selected according to a strict selection strategy.

For the strategy in the event of loss of server, see Redundancy (Chapter 2.6).

NTP Client

You activate the client service with the parameter /NTP Client/NTP Client (0.18.01)

IP addresses of the NTP servers

You can specify four IP addresses of NTP servers with the parameter /NTP Client/NTP Server List[4] (0.18.02). The address 0.0.0.0 indicates that no server has been entered.

Parameter assignment

DNS names are not supported.

Current NTP server

The currently selected NTP server is displayed with the parameter /NTP Client/Active Server (0.18.03). The address 0.0.0.0 indicates that no server has been entered.

Monitoring the server

Monitoring of the NTP servers can be set up with the parameter /NTP Client/Monitoring/Monitor Server (0.18.04)

9.1.3 Redundancy

The priority in the event of loss of an external synchronization is defined by the setting of the parameter /Redundancy/Redundancy (0.09.10)

• Setting "Master (radio clocks preferred to NTP)"

− RADIO CLOCK is always accepted

− NTP is used when RADIO CLOCK is not available.

• Setting "Slave (NTP preferred to radio clocks)"

9.2 Connecting time receivers

The following options are available for connecting the time receivers::

• Ethernet connection via NTP Server

• Ethernet connection via SIMATIC Verfahren

The following sections describe the parameter assignment options.

9.2.1 NTP server service

An NTP server is available at the Ethernet port. The NTP server supports the modes Any/unicast and Multicast according to RFC2030.

Any / unicast (standard mode)

This mode is used by, e.g., PCs.

Multicast

You activate the NTP server in Any/unicast mode with the parameter entry /NTP Server/NTP Server/Operation (0.16.01)

= "On". The settings "Off" and "Only

when synchronized" are also available as options.

The setting "Only when synchronized" enables conditional operation. The server service is only active when the device is externally synchronized.

This mode has to be set explicitly for each subnet.

You can set Multicast mode for up to four subnets with the parameter /NTP Server/Multicast[4]/Multicast[x]/Mode (0.16.02)

You define the Multicast IP address that will be used with the parameter entry "Multicast address", e.g. 192.168.2.255.

Setting options for parameter entry mode:

• Off

• 10s – Standard mode, that is the coded time is time-zone independent

• 60s – Standard mode, that is the coded time is time-zone independent

• 10s with local time – for receivers without their own calendar

• 60s with local time – for receivers without their own calendar

9-7

You define the Multicast IP address that will be used with the parameter entry "Multicast address".

SICLOCK

TC100 Operating Instructions

9.2.2 SIMATIC mode

SIMATIC mode is supported at the Ethernet port by two protocols:

• PCS7-compatible mode

• S5-compatible mode

The setting is made with the parameter /SIMATIC Mode/Ethernet 1 (0.15.01)

Mode

You set the send clock between 0 s, 1 s and 10 s with the parameter entry /SIMATIC Mode/Ethernet 1/Mode (0.15.01)

Send condition

You define whether the signal is always output or only when synchronized with the parameter entry /SIMATIC Mode/Ethernet 1/Send Condition (0.15.01)

9.3 General settings on the device

The important general settings are described in the following, e.g. the time adjustment, the synchronization response etc.

You will find a list of all the setting options in Parameter table (Chapter 10).

9.3.1 Time management

Note

Change the plant time at one single, central point, ideally on the central plant clock.

Setting the time manually

You can set the time in the device optionally with one of the following parameters:

• Parameter /Time/Local Time (0.09.04)

• Parameter /Time/UTC Time (0.09.02) (uniform universal time)

• Parameter /Time/TAI Time (0.09.03)

Time zone

You define the offset from UTC to the zone time, without any daylight saving, with the parameter /Time/Time Zone (0.09.06)

Note

If the external synchronization already contains a time zone (e.g. DCF77 contains CET/CEST), this is taken into account on reception.

If the time zone is not defined by the external synchronization (e.g. serial telegrams), then no further time zone correction is made.

Difference between TAI and UTC

You can readout the difference between atomic time TAI and universal time UTC in seconds with the parameter /Time/Extended/Atomic Time TAI/Offset from UTC to TAI (0.09.01).

(atomic time)

9-

SICLOCK

TC100 Operating Instructions

Daylight saving

Leap seconds

Parameter assignment

The device makes the daylight saving change automatically at the parameterized switching times.

Parameter /Time/Extended/Daylight Saving (0.09.07)

Note

The preset switching times are consistent with the regulations currently valid in the European Union.

The setting "Change = No" suppresses the time change, and the plant is operated with standard time.

The calendar rule for the daylight saving time change can be defined worldwide via a parameter.

You define the leap-second calendar with the parameter /Time/Extended/Leap Seconds[20] (0.09.05)

9.3.2 Synchronization

Synchronizaion status

You can readout the various information about the current synchronization status via the parameter /Synchronization/Synchronization Status (0.09.09)

Protected synchronization

If a discontinuity of longer than 5 seconds occurs in the external synchronization, the protected synchronization is activated. The synchronization is disabled, and an alarm is triggered, which is pending as long as the discontinuity in the external synchronization continues.

The pending synchronization disable can be ignored once and the "Protected Synchronization" alarm cleared with the parameter entry /Synchronization/Extended/Protected Synchronization/Ignore/Clear Alarm (0.09.12) = "Yes".

Note

This synchronizes unconditionally with the external time, and a time jump can occur in the plant operation.

If required, disconnect the active external synchronization in advance or delete the server address for NTP client operation from the parameter /NTP Client/NTP Server List[4] (0.18.02)

TC100 Operating Instructions

9-

Parameter assignment

Microsteps

If a difference occurs between the input synchronization (e.g. radio clock) and the device up to a tolerance threshold of several seconds, this difference is not adjusted immediately as this would lead to a time jump in the time synchronization.

This difference is run down incrementally in microsteps, which are significantly below the time resolution of typical plants, and so remain unnoticed by the plant operation. This process may take up to several hours.

The run down of the time difference in microstep mode can be interrupted once with the parameter entry /Synchronization/Extended/Microsteps/Ignore/Cancel (0.09.13) = "Yes".

This causes immediate synchronization with the external time, and a time jump

occurs in the plant operation.

Note

Avoid time jumps in the plant operation.

The "Ignore microstep mode" command is suitable, e.g. for the first input synchronization during commissioning.

Monitoring

You define whether the device outputs an alarm or a warning in the absence of external synchronization with the parameter /Synchronization/Extended/Monitoring (0.09.14)

9.3.3 Display

You change the language and the representation of the time with the parameter /Display/Representation (0.10.01) TAI.

9.3.4 System

You define and can change the password for standard protection with the parameter /System/Authorization For Standard Protection (2.06.02)

You use the parameter /System/Reset (0.06.04) factory defaults. This does not reset parameters such as network addresses, authorizations etc.

, and so substantially

After a minimum operating period of 30 minutes after Power Up, SICLOCK TC100 checks once

whether the battery is switched off. If necessary, the battery

is then switched on automatically, and a message is output.

Notice

If the supply voltage is switched

off while the battery is switched off, the SICLOCK

TC100 loses the hardware time and the archives.

This command may only be executed by qualified personnel.

11.1 Battery

The device has an integrated battery which supplies a clock module and the archive buffer during phases without the power supply.

The battery can be switched off when put into storage, which lengthens its service life and availability.

After a minimum operating period of 30 minutes after Power Up, SICLOCK

TC100 checks once is then switched on automatically, and a message is output.

Messages 12

The messages are classified under four different types of event:

• System (capacity for approx. 1,500 entries)

• Application (capacity for approx. 4,500 entries)

• Information (capacity for approx. 21,500 entries)

• Warning (capacity for approx. 3,000 entries)

Messages for which an outgoing event is triggered are termed persistent indications. Persistent indications are, e.g., alarms.

Note

Each type of event is managed in its own buffer in the device. If a buffer is full, the next message of this type overwrites the oldest message in the buffer.

The size of the information buffer is sufficient for approx. 45 days. This in an average value based on experience. However, the message volume can vary according to the operating conditions and plant configuration.

For further information, see Archive (Chapter 7.4).
