1.1 Functions and Characteristics of the TN8 Module

The TN8 module is a device to connect the controller main unit of the Unified Controller nv series to the information and monitoring control network TC-net 100. For the interface of the TN8 module, optical fiber cables are provided: One for single bus and one for dual-redundant bus.
TN821: Optical fiber cable single bus module
TN821A: Optical fiber cable single bus module
TN822: Optical fiber cable dual-redundant bus module
TN822A: Optical fiber cable dual-redundant bus module
Up to 4 TN8 modules can be installed to the basic unit.
Remark
compatible with TN821/TN822.
Characteristics of the TN8 mo dule
Openness
The TN8 module is a network for monitoring control that maintains the openness of the 100 Mbps Ethernet and has the collision avoidance function and deterministic real time responsiveness.
Communication services
The communication services include scan transmission (cyclic broadcast transmission) that transmits control data periodically, and normal message transmission.
Scan transmission has 3 modes; high, medium and low, which can be assigned according to the data update cycle to ensure deterministic real time responsiveness.
Message transmission supports Toshiba's standard protocol PCMP as well as TCP, UDP, and IP.
High reliability
Highly reliable system configuration is available with redundancy of the transmission path.

Set the switches that determine the operation mode and station address of the TN8 module
Name
Description
Setting range : 01 to FE(h)
STN-H
STN-H(upper digit address): 0 to F(h)
STN-L
STN-L(lower digit address): 0 to F(h)
Remark
For setting, use a small slotted screwdriver.
Note
Be careful so that the address does not overlap with other nodes.

3.1 Switch Setting

The switches that determine the operation mode and station address are on the front panel of the TN8 module.
The method to set the switches is shown below.
Important
before turning the power on.
3.1.1 Station address setting switch (STN-H, STN-L)
The station address setting switches are hexadecimal rotary switches that determines the station address on the TC-net 100 network.
For setting of the IP address, refer to "3.2 Network parameter setting." Set the station address (1 to 254) that has been assigned upon system configuration in a HEX code. Assign an address with a different value to each of the nodes in the system.
Tab l e 3 -1 shows the setting of a station address.
Table 3-1 Station address setting
(Note) (h) indicates hexadecimal.
Set the station address in hexadecimal.
For example, if the address value is 28, it is ‘1C’ (h) when converted to hexadecimal. Therefore, set as follows:
STN-H side: ‘1’
STN-L side: ‘C’
For decimal-hexadecimal conversion, refer to "Appendix D Decimal-hexadecimal conversion table."
