MOST150 Repeater

2 Introduction

When examining MOST150 network environments, connecting to the network without changing the network's structure is an important requirement. The MOST150 Repeater is a versatile device that can act as a network extender or provide monitor out functionality help managing many of the tasks arising during the development phase of a MOST150 system.

This starts with single signal recovery or device replacement for an defective device and continues with including of additional MOST150 devices in a MOST network when used as an extender. The transmit signal of the MOST150 Repeater’s extension side can be connected to a analyzing device, such as an Opto-

Lyzer

G2 3150o, to spy MOST150 network traffic without changing the number of active network nodes.

After the MOST150 Repeater has detected light, it is switched on immediately. It also supports slave wakeup on the extension side. Additionally, the MOST150 Repeater has a switch off mechanism, which is activated when detecting no light for a dedicated time.

The MOST150 Repeater provides a relay contact whose position depends on whether light is detected or not. Thus the MOST150 Repeater is able to loop an external provided power signal through the closed relay

contact.

For easy lock indication, the MOST150 Repeater provides respectively one status LED on the main and the extension side.

Power will be applied via a screwable 3-pole power plug and a cable pigtail. The power supply follows the automotive requirements (filtering, load dump protection, etc.). If there is no activity on the bus, the MOST150 Repeater falls into a stand-by mode, where the overall current consumption is less then 30 µA. Therefore no other cables are required than UBATT (battery power) and GND (ground).

without interfering in the network’s structure. It can

Important: The number of nodes is not affected by using the MOST150 Repeater since there is no active node inside. It lasts 300 ms till an extension ring is included in the MOST network after it is connected to the MOST150 Repeater.

1. This means the TX of the extension ring is only connected with the RX of an analyzing device (spy, e.g., the OptoLyzer OL3150o) to avoid data / message loss that may occur otherwise until the extension ring will be included (typically 300 ms).

MOST150 Repeater

2.1 Feature List

The MOST150 Repeater features the following:

• Two MOST150 oPHY (optical Physical) layer compliant interfaces at main and extension side

• Internal automotive compliant power supply

• Low power consumption in sleep mode (< 30 µA)

• Slave wake-up possible at extension side

• Monitor-out functionality without extra FOT on extension side

• Indication of the lock status through a LED on each side

• Relay-switched lock contact max, 20 V / 1 A, short-circuit protected

• Signal recovery

MOST150 Repeater

2.3 Functional Description

The MOST150 Repeater has two interfaces that act slightly different: The main ring to be connected to the timing master and the extension ring.

After powering, the MOST150 Repeater switches into stand-by mode having a low power consumption less than 30 µA. Both Lock LEDs remain dark. As soon as the MOST150 Repeater detects light on an interface the corresponding LED lights red but switches immediately to green if the interface detects also lock. The LED of the other interface remains dark.

If the interface on the main ring detects light the MOST network is closed by default. If the interface of the extension ring detects stable lock it takes up to 300 ms until the extension ring is included in the MOST network. If the extension is deconnected it takes about 10 ms to close the main ring.

The MOST150 Repeater also supports slave wake-up. This means, the extension ring is able to wake-up the main ring being in sleep mode (power consumption less than 30 µA) after stable lock has been detected on the extension’s side.

In case the MOST150 Repeater detects no light it switches back to sleep mode after 2000 ms.

The MOST150 Repeater provides a relay contact allowing to loop an external provided power signal through the closed relay contact. The relay contact, which is short circuit protected, closes if light is detected either on the main ring or on the extension ring side. The power signal can be used for powering an external device e.g., for data logging or storage. Thus it is possible to log all data of the MOST network. If the power signal exceeds the maximum values for current (1 A) the relay drops out. Before the relay contact can be reused the MOST Repeater has to be switched off and on again.

2.4 Description of Start-up and Shut-down in Detail

2.4.1 Light on in the Main Ring

When the MOST150 Repeater obtains no light on RX it remains in sleep mode (indicated as grey dashed lines in Figure 2-2) assuming the device itself is powered .

Figure 2-2: Light in Main Ring Step 1

If light is detected on RX in the main ring the MOST150 Repeater switches on. The light is transmitted back to TX on the main ring, i.e., via an internal loop, and to the TX of the extension ring (indicated by the orange lines in Figure 2-3). In additon, the MOST signal will be recovered via an internal PLL.

Figure 2-3: Light in Main Ring Step 2

Page 13

MOST150 Repeater

In case a proper MOST device is connected in the extension ring its RX obtains also light (indicated by blue lines in Figure 2-3).

Figure 2-4: Light in Main Ring Step 3

If the RX of the extension ring receives light the MOST150 Repeater checks the signal quality (lock) and includes the extension ring within at least 300 ms in the MOST network (indicated by the green dashed line of influence in Figure 2-4). Internally a switch opens the loop behind the main ring and includes the external ring (indicated by the blue lines in Figure 2-4).

MOST150 Repeater

2.4.2 Light off in the Extension Ring

The base is a closed ring where the extension ring is included in the MOST network.

Figure 2-5: Light off in Extension Ring Step 1

If a break is detected on the extension ring’s side i.e., no light is detected on the RX of the extension ring, the MOST150 Repeater keeps the ring closed for 10 ms (see position of the switch in Figure 2-6).

Figure 2-6: Light off in Extension Ring Step 2

Page 15

MOST150 Repeater

If the break lasts more than 10 ms (indicated by the green dashed line of influence in Figure 2-6) the MOST150 Repeater excludes the external ring and closes the internal loop of the main ring (indicated by orange lines in Figure 2-7).

Figure 2-7: Light off in Extension Ring Step 3

MOST150 Repeater

2.4.3 Light off in the Main Ring

The base is a closed ring where the extension ring is included in the MOST network.

Figure 2-8: Light off in Main Ring Step 1

If light switches off at RX of the main ring the MOST150 Repeater excludes the extension ring after about 10 ms (see position of the switch in Figure 2-8).

Figure 2-9: Light off in Main Ring Step 2

If RX of the main ring obtains no light for about 2000 ms the MOST Repeater switches into stand-by mode.

Page 17

MOST150 Repeater

2.4.4 Slave Wake-up in the Extension Ring

The MOST150 Repeater is in stand-by mode i.e., the device itself is powerd but RX of the main ring obtains no light (indicated by grey dashed lines in Figure 2-10).

Important: After a slave wake-up it lasts 300 ms till the extension ring is included and visible in the MOST network.

Figure 2-10: Slave Wake-up Step 1

RX on the extension ring detects light transmitted by the slave (indicated by blue lines in Figure 2-11).

Figure 2-11: Slave Wake-up Step 2

MOST150 Repeater

If light is detected on RX of the extension ring for about 300 ms the positon of the internal switch changes and includes the extension ring to the MOST network (see Figure 2-12).

2.5 Typical Applications

2.5.1 Network Extension

The MOST150 Repeater is mainly designed to extend the MOST network with additional devices. Therefore connect the extension ring on the extension’s side. An application might look as Figure 2-13.

Figure 2-13: MOST150 Repeater with Extension Ring

2.5.2 Single Signal Recovery

The MOST150 Repeater can be used for signal recovery purposes if you have extended transmission distances. Signal recovery is possible on both the main ring and the extension ring side. An application might look as Figure 2-13.

Figure 2-14: Signal Recovery in the MOST150 Repeater

MOST150 Repeater

2.5.3 Device Replacement

The MOST150 Repeater can be used when a defective device needs to be replaced. Just remove the defective device and replace it by the MOST150 Repeater. The internal loop closes the ring. In addition a signal recovery is done.

Figure 2-15: Device Replacement by MOST150 Repeater

2.5.3.1 Usage in a Garage

In a garage a common use case is to identify a defective MOST device. Therefor disconnect the device that is assumed to be defective and connect the MOST150 Repeater instead. If the MOST ring works properly the removed MOST device is probably faulty and should be replaced by a new one. If the MOST ring does not work properly the ring except the controlling devices (e.g., headunit, timing master). For details how to evaluate the defective device refer e.g., to the OEM’s work instruction.

the MOST150 Repeater can be used to replace one device after the other in

Replacing by the MOST150 Repeater means the replaced device is substituted by an electrical short-circuit (i.e., the internal loop of the MOST150 Repeater).

Note: The extension functionality of the MOST150 Repeater is not considered in the use case ’device replacement in a garage’ that is described above.

1.The functionality of the replaced device is missing in the MOST ring.

2.5.4 Connecting OptoLyzer G2 3150o

The MOST150 Repeater can be connected to a monitoring device, such as an OptoLyzer G2 3150o, to spy MOST150 network traffic. To avoid data / message loss until the extension ring will be included (which takes up to typically 300 ms) we recommend to only connect the TX of the extension port with the RX of the OptoLyzer OL3150o.
