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 taken.

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.

Description 2

Modern automation systems consist of a variety of computers, controllers and systems that exchange data with one another. For real-time operation of such plants, it is essential that the times of all components are synchronous. This applies especially for error tracing, when event messages receive a time stamp and when cause and effect have to be identified through a reliable chronological sequence.

As plant central clock, SICLOCK TC 400 supplies the various plant components with the exact and reliable time, which is obtained from one or more external synchronizations with an official or legal time, usually GPS or DCF77 radio clocks.

The time is distributed via Ethernet, and also via point-to-point outputs.

Note

Use only one device as plant central clock to supply the time to all components throughout the plant.

Exception: redundant operation of the plant central clock.

2.2 External synchronization

SICLOCK TC 400 can be matched to the local official time or GMT via external synchronization in order to automate or restrict manual actions, such as daylight saving time switchovers and leap seconds, to a minimum.

External synchronizations can be GPS or DCF77 radio clocks, servers (e.g. time signal from an NTP server), further SICLOCK TC 400 devices or other signal sources. They are connected to RADIO CLOCK 1 or RADIO CLOCK 2 or to one of the four Ethernet ports on the device.

NTP servers are supported as external synchronization on the Ethernet ports.

Possible radio clocks to RADIO CLOCK 1 and RADIO CLOCK 2:

• SICLOCK GPS1000

• SICLOCK GPSDEC

• SICLOCK DCFRS

Third-party products can be connected via TTY (passive). The following protocols are supported:

Description

• Demodulated DCF77

• Serial:

If a discontinuity of more than 5 s occurs in the external synchronization, the protected synchronization is activated and, for safety reasons, the synchronization not performed.

Time assurance through microstepping mode

A time difference between the external synchronization and the device, which can occur through a temporary radio failure or switchover to a substitute synchronization, is automatically cleared unnoticeably in microstepping mode for the plant operation. There is no inconsistency in the time.

Further information and parameterization options for protected synchronization and the microstepping mode are described in Section Synchronization (Section 9.3.2).

Note

Only parameterize the plant time at one location within the synchronization hierarchy, ideally at the plant central clock.

2.5 Commissioning

The commissioning can be divided into the following steps:

1. Installation (Section 5)

2. Connecting (Section 6)

3. Assigning IP address on the device

Parameterization and Operation on the Device (Section 8)

4. Parameterization (Section 9)

With a few exceptions, the settings are made with the configuration tool, see Configuration Tool (Section 7).

2.6 Redundancy

Redundant external synchronization

Up to two radio clocks and up to four time servers can be operated on the SICLOCK TC 400 for the external synchronization.

The priorities of the external synchronizations and therefore the redundancy behavior can be set via parameters, see Redundancy (Section 9.1.3).

Redundant SICLOCK TC 400 plant central clock

A SICLOCK TC 400 can be operated via various ports on a redundant network and several SICLOCK TC 400 can be operated as servers on one network.

For further information, refer to Chapters Configuration Tool (Section 7) and

Parameter Table (Section 10).

Redundant control of time receivers (output redundancy)

Description

At least two SICLOCK TC 400 are used for an output redundancy. With the appropriate parameterization, OUTPUTs 1 and 2 of the two devices can each be connected redundantly with the other.

For further information, refer to Sections Redundant point-to-point connec- tions (Section 6.4.2) and OUTPUT 1 and 2 redundant (Section 9.2.4).

7.2.2 Authorization

There are authorization levels for each parameter, which permit or prohibit read and write access to the parameter. The user interface starts with the lowest authorization level, which usually only permits read access to parameters.

More rights can be obtained by entering the appropriate password.

The password can be changed by the user:

• /System/Authorization For Standard Protection (2.06.02)

As delivered, the password on the device is "2222"

The current authorization level is indicated by the color of the password field.

Write protection - red entry field

At this authorization level, the user typically only has read access to standard parameters.

Standard protection - green entry field

At this authorization level, the user typically also has read access to advanced parameters and write access to standard parameters.

Online mode

Authorization is performed directly on the device, i.e. the device assigns an appropriate authorization level.

parameter

Offline mode

You can authorize yourself for a higher authorization level with a password, when this is contained in the loaded offline authorization parameters.

Note

It is not possible to authorize yourself in offline mode with a password that is available on the device, but is not contained in the offline authorization parameters.

7.5 Troubleshooting

The following is a list of FAQs and problem solutions for the SICLOCK TC 400 configuration tool.

Table 7-5 Problem solutions for the configuration tool

Question/Problem Cause/Remedy

Authorization not possible in offline mode

The data does not contain authorization parameters. You must perform an online authorization.

See Authorization (Section 7.2.2).

A connection cannot be established to the device

• Check whether the correct IP address has been set in the configuration tool.

• Check whether there is a network connection.

• Check whether the TCP:2155 port has been released for the connection or

already being used by another application.

See also Establish/disconnect online connection (Section 7.2.1).

An event cannot be acknowledged.

This is a persistent message pending on the device. See also General functions (Section 7.2).

No interaction with the device in online mode (hourglass)

The connection to the device has been separated and must be established again.

See also Establish/disconnect online connection (Section 7.2.1).

Parameter cannot be edited

• The parameter is a display parameter

See Parameters (Section 7.3)

• The current authorization level is too low

See Authorization (Section 7.2.2)

• The parameter does not have a parameter value

In this case, the parameter must be read from the device again.

Parameters and archives are displayed in a language other than the user interface

The language set in the configuration tool is not available in the device. See Menus (Section 7.1)

Parameter is not written during the upload

It is a critical operating parameter that is explicitly excluded from an upload. Such parameters must be written individually. See Parameters (Section 7.3) and Reading parameters / writing parameters

/ resetting parameters to factory settings (Section 7.3.4).

Parameterization

9.1 Linking the external synchronization

The external synchronizations can be linked via Ethernet as NTP server and/or as radio clock via point-to-point connections to the SICLOCK TC 400.

Prerequisite for operation is at least one external synchronization. Additional external synchronization can be used as substitute synchronizations if a fault occurs, see Redundancy (Section 2.6).

External synchronizations can be GPS or DCF77 radio clocks, cabled distribution systems, atomic clocks or other signal sources.

Further information

Synchronization (Section 9.3.2).

9.1.1 Radio clocks via terminals

Only two radio clocks can be connected at the same time, see also Terminal assignment (Section 15.1).

Monitoring

Status display

Serial formats

Certain redundancy mechanisms enable an automatic switchover to the second radio clock when a fault occurs, see Redundancy (Section 9.1.3).

The /Inputs/Input 1/Monitoring (0.20.01) parameter for radio clock 1 or the /Inputs/Input 2/Monitoring (0.21.01)

parameter for radio clock 2 can be used to monitor the input signal of the radio clocks and after expiry of the monitoring time, an alarm or a warning output.

See Connecting the external synchronization (Section 6.3).

The /Inputs/Input 1/Framing (0.20.03) parameter displays the automatically detected framing for serial formats.

There are entries for baud rate, data bits, parity and stop bits.

9-76

SICLOCK

TC 400

9.1.2 Operation as NTP client

Four IP addresses of NTP servers can be assigned for SICLOCK TC 400 as NTP client.

The servers are polled regularly and, on the basis of a strict selection strategy, a preferred server is selected.

For the strategy when a server fails, see Redundancy (Section 2.6).

NTP client

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

IP address of the NTP servers

Four IP addresses of the NTP servers can be assigned with the /NTP Client/NTP Server List[4] (0.18.02) parameter. Address 0.0.0.0 means that no server has been entered.

Parameterization

DNS names are not supported.

Current NTP server

The /NTP Client/Active Server (0.18.03) parameter displays the currently selected NTP server. Address 0.0.0.0 means that no server has been entered.

Monitoring the servers

The /NTP Client/Monitoring/monitor server (0.18.04) parameter can be used to set up the monitoring of the NTP servers.

9.1.3 Redundancy

The preference when an external synchronization fails depends on the setting of the /Redundancy/Redundancy (0.09.10)

• "Master (prefer radio clocks to NTP)" setting

− RADIO CLOCK 1 is always accepted.

− RADIO CLOCK 2 is used when RADIO CLOCK 1 is not available.

− NTP is used when RADIO CLOCK 1 and RADIO CLOCK 2 are not avail-

able.

parameter:

• "Slave (prefer NTP to radio clocks)" setting

− RADIO CLOCK 1 is used when NTP is not available.

− RADIO CLOCK 2 is used when NTP and RADIO CLOCK 1 are not avail-

able.

9.2 Linking the time receivers

The following options are available for the linking of the radio receivers:

• Ethernet link via NTP server

• Ethernet link via SIMATIC method

• OUTPUTs 1 to 3 via terminals (direct point-to point-connection to SICLOCK

TC 400)

The following section describes the parameterization options:

9.2.1 NTP server service

The NTP server is available on all four Ethernet ports and supports the any/unicast and multicast modes in accordance with RFC2030.

Any/unicast (standard mode)

This mode is used, for example, by PCs and is available globally for all ports.

The parameter entry /NTP Server/NTP Server/operation (0.16.01) vates the NTP server in any/unicast mode. The setting options "off" and "only if synchronized" are also possible.

Conditional operation is possible with the setting "only if synchronized". The server service only functions if the device is externally synchronized.

Multicast

This mode must be set explicitly for each subnet.

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

The parameter entry "Multicast address" specifies the multicast IP address to be used, e.g. 192.168.2.255".

Setting options for the parameter entry mode:

• off

• 10 s – standard operation, i.e. the coded time does no include time zones

• 60 s – standard operation, i.e. the coded time does no include time zones

= "on" acti-

9-78

• 10 s with local time – for receivers that do not have a calendar

• 60 s with local time – for receivers that do not have a calendar

The parameter entry "Multicast address" specifies the multicast IP address to be used.

SICLOCK

TC 400

9.2.2 SIMATIC method

The four Ethernet ports support the SIMATIC method with four protocols:

• PCS7-compatible mode

• S5-compatible mode

A parameter is available for each Ethernet port.

Parameterization

• /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 1 (0.15.01)

• /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 2 (0.15.02)

• /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 3 (0.15.03)

• /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 4 (0.15.04)

Mode

The parameter entry /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 1/mode (0.15.01) sets the send clock between 0 s, 1 s and 10 s.

Send condition

The parameter entry /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 1/send condition (0.15.01) specifies whether the signal should always be output or only if synchronized.

Destination address

The parameter entry /SIMATIC Method/Ethernet 1/destination address (0.15.01) specifies the send address of the SIMATIC method. Typically the broadcast address FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF is set.

9.2.3 OUTPUT 1 to 3 via terminals

Three parameterizable outputs are available on the terminals:

Output signal

Inverted

Pretrigger

• /Outputs/Output 1 (0.12.01)

• /Outputs/Output 2 (0.13.01)

• /Outputs/Output 3 (0.14.01)

parameter as current or voltage signal

parameter as RS422 signal

The following output signals can be set via the parameter entry "Signal to output":

• DCF77 with local time

• DCF77 with UTC

• Pulse per second

• Pulse per minute

• Serial telegram

See Output telegram (for OUTPUT 1 to 3) (Section 9.2.5).

You can invert the signal with the parameter entry "Inverted".

The parameter entry "Pretrigger" is used to set how many nanoseconds before the second change the output should switch. With that, line delays can be compensated.

Conditional output

The parameter entry "Conditional output" specifies whether the signal should always be output or only if synchronized. The required setting for the redundant configuration of the outputs is described in OUTPUT 1 and 2 redundant (Section 9.2.4).

SICLOCK

TC 400

9.2.4 OUTPUT 1 and 2 redundant

A redundant point-to-point connection can be implemented with two SICLOCK TC 400 devices. Both devices must be synchronous. Typically, this is ensured by device 2 using device 1 as external synchronization (e.g. device 2 as NTP client and device 1 as NTP server).

See also Redundancy (Section 2.6) and Redundant point-to-point connec- tions (Section 6.4.2).

The output for OUTPUT 1 or 2 of device 1 is set to "only if synchronized", the output for OUTPUT 1 or 2 of device 2 to "send unconditional".

Example:

OUTPUT 1 of both devices is to be operated redundantly.

Device 1: Parameter entry /Outputs/Output 1/conditional output (0.12.01) nized"

(Because of the setting "Only if synchronized", device 1 does not supply the time in this case.)

If the device 1 – device 2 connection is faulted, the time receiver receives the signal from both devices. There is a lack of definition in the accuracy of the external synchronization which is usually in the µs range and can be ignored.

Large inaccuracies can occur when an external synchronization also supplies a faulty signal.

9.2.5 Output telegram (for OUTPUT 1 to 3)

If the output signal is defined as a serial telegram, you can specify the settings for the data transfer with the /Outputs/Output Telegram (0.19.01)

Format

The parameter entry /Outputs/Output Telegram/format (0.19.01) offers the following telegram formats for selection:

• Meinberg compatible (including time zones)

• Meinberg compatible (not including time zones)

• NMEA (0183/ZDA)

Baud rate

9.3 General settings on the device

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

You can find a list of all setting options in Parameter Table (Section 10).

9.3.1 Time management

Note

Only make changes to the plant time at one central location, ideally at the plant central clock.

Setting the time manually

Parameterization

Optionally, you can set the time in the device via one of the following parameters:

• /Time/Local Time (0.09.04)

• /Time/UTC Time (0.09.02)

• /Time/TAI Time (0.09.04)

Time zone

The /Time/Time Zone (0.09.06) parameter is used to specify the offset from UTC to local zone time without possible daylight saving time.

Note

If the external synchronization already contains a time zone (e.g. DCF77 contains CE/CEDST), this is already taken into account when received.

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

Difference between TAI and UTC

You can read out the difference between atomic time TAI and world time UTC in seconds with the /Time/Advanced/Atomic Time TAI/Offset From UTC To TAI (0.09.01) parameter.

parameter

parameter (universal time)

parameter (atomic time)

TC 400

9-83

Parameterization

Daylight saving time

The daylight saving time changeover is automatically performed by the device at the parameterized times.

/Time/Advanced/Daylight Saving Time (0.09.07)

Note

The preset changeover times correspond to the present valid regulations of the European Community.

With the setting "enable = no", the time changeover is suppressed and the plant is operated with standard time.

The calendrical regulation for the daylight saving time changeover can be specified worldwide via a parameter.

Leap seconds

Use the /Time/Advanced/Leap Seconds[20] (0.09.05) parameter to specify the calendar of leap seconds.

9.3.2 Synchronization

Synchronization status

You can read out different information about the current synchronization status via the /Synchronization/Status of Synchronization (0.09.09)

parameter

parameter.

Protected synchronization

If a discontinuity of more than 5 s occurs in the external synchronization, the protected synchronization is activated. The synchronization is suppressed and an alarm issued which is present as long as there is a discontinuity in the external synchronization.

The pending synchronization suppression can be ignored once and the "Protected synchronization" alarm cleared with the parameter entry /Synchronization/Advanced/Protected Synchronization/ignore /clear alarm (0.09.12) = "yes".

Notice

This initiates an unconditional synchronization to the external time and an inconsistency in the time distribution to the plant can result.

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

9-84

SICLOCK

TC 400

Microstepping

Parameterization

If during operation a difference occurs between the input synchronization (e.g. radio clock) and the device up to a tolerance of some seconds, that difference will not be set immediately, since that would cause an inconsistency in the time distribution.

This difference is corrected with microstepping which is significantly below the time resolution of typical pants and therefore remains unnoticed in the plant operation. This may take up to several hours.

The correction of the time difference with microstepping can be interrupted once with the parameter entry /Synchronization/Advanced/Microstepping/ignore/cancel (0.09.13) = "yes".

This initiates an immediate synchronization to the external time resulting in an

inconsistency in the time distribution to the plant.

Note

Avoid inconsistencies in the time distribution to the plant.

The Ignore microstepping command is suitable, for example, for the first input synchronization during the commissioning.

Monitoring

The /Synchronization/Advanced/Monitoring (0.09.14) parameter specifies whether the device should output an alarm or a warning when there is no external synchronization.

9.3.3 Display

You can change the language and the display of the time with the /Display/View (0.10.01) parameter. The time can be displayed as UTC, local time or TAI.

9.3.4 System

You can specify or change the password for the standard protection with the /System/Authorization For Standard Protection (2.06.02) parameter.

You can reset the parameters to the factory settings with the /System/Reset (0.06.04) parameter. Exceptions are parameters such as network addresses, authorizations, etc.

TC 400

9-85

Parameterization

9.3.5 Temperature

You activate the monitoring of the module temperatures with the parameter entry /Environment/Advanced/Temperature/monitoring (0.24.01)

You can set the following values:

• Alarm

• Warning

• No monitoring

The current module temperature is displayed in the parameter entry /Environment/Status/temperature (0.24.02).

9.3.6 Battery

You can specifically disconnect the battery when storing and therefore significantly increase the battery life with the parameter entry /Environment/Advanced/Battery/disconnect (0.25.01).

During power up, the SICLOCK TC 400 checks once whether the battery has been disconnected after at least 30 minutes of operation. If required, the battery is then automatically connected and a message output.

Notice

If the battery is disconnected, hardware time and archives are lost when the power supply for the SICLOCK TC 400 is switched off. This command may only be performed by qualified personnel.
