1. ControlNet Description

The ControlNet driver allows the FieldServer to transfer data to and from devices using

ControlNet protocol. The SST 5136-CN-ISA Communications Adapter card is included with the

FieldServer. The FieldServer can communicate using un-scheduled transfers with PCCC

messages embedded in the ControlNet messages.

When the FieldServer originates PCCC messages to communicate with PLC5 controllers, it

uses connected messages. This provides fast reliable communication to the other node. When

another device originates PCCC messaging, the FieldServer will emulate a PLC5 controller

supporting connected or unconnected messages to files N7 through to N32..

3. Hardware Connections

The FieldServer is connected to the ControlNet Network with 75 ohm coaxial cable. If the

ControlNet is not wired in redundant mode, ensure that all connectors are connected to the

COM A port. A 75 ohm terminator must be placed at either end of the ControlNet Bus.

3.1. Connection Notes

Before connecting the FieldServer to the network, the FieldServer MacId should be set. The

MacId is the term used for a ControlNet station address. The ControlNet MacId of the

FieldServer is set to the System_Station_Address specified in the FieldServer configuration

file.

4. Configuring the FieldServer for Unscheduled ControlNet Access with PCCC

messaging

For a detailed discussion on FieldServer configuration, please refer to the FieldServer

Configuration Manual. The information that follows describes how to expand upon the factory

defaults provided in the configuration files included with the FieldServer (See “.csv” sample files

provided with the FieldServer).

This section documents and describes the parameters necessary for configuring the FieldServer

to communicate with ControlNet devices using PCCC messaging. This transfer mechanism

would be used to communicate between the FieldServer and PLC-5 controllers.

The configuration file tells the FieldServer about its interfaces, and the routing of data required.

In order to enable the FieldServer for ControlNet communications, the driver independent

FieldServer buffers need to be declared in the “Data Arrays” section, the FieldServer virtual

node(s) needs to be declared in the “Nodes” section, and the data to be transferred needs to be

mapped in the “Unscheduled Map Descriptors” section. Details on how to do this can be found

below.

Note that in the tables, * indicates an optional parameter, with the bold legal value being the

default.

4.2. ControlNet Node Descriptors

This section of the configuration file defines the different MacIds of the ControlNet devices

on the network. If you want to transfer the data on the local ControlNet card to the data-

arrays on your FieldServer, typically used when acting as a Server, define a Node_ID with

the same value as the System_Station_Address.

Section Title

Nodes

Column Title Function Legal Values

Node_Name Provide name for node Up to 32 alphanumeric

to communicate with 1-99

Protocol Specify protocol used ControlNet

4.3. Unscheduled Map Descriptors using PCCC messaging

Maintained on the SST 5136-CN-ISA card are 32 integer files (N7-N39) that can be read or

written to by other devices on the ControlNet network using PCCC messaging. Client style

Map Descriptors are used to transfer data to or from the file buffers on the card to the Data

Arrays on the FieldServer.

4.3.2. Driver Specific Map Descriptor Parameters

Column Title Function Legal Values

Node_Name Name of Node to

communicate with

One of the node names

specified in “Node Descriptor”

above

Block_Number PLC File Number For local node 7-39

For remote node 1-999

PCCC_Type Type of PCCC data to be

transferred over

ControlNet

UINT, (SINT, INT) (REAL,

FLOAT) (BOOL, BIT, FLAG)

Equal types are shown in

brackets.

Address Starting address within file 0 – 999 ( INT, SINT )

0 – 499 ( REAL, FLOAT )

0 – 15999 ( BOOL, BIT, FLAG )

Length Length of Map Descriptor 1 – 249 ( INT, SINT )

1 – 124 ( REAL, FLOAT )

1 – 3984 ( BOOL, BIT, FLAG )

Note the number of bytes per PCCC_Type:

SINT, INT = 2 bytes, REAL, FLOAT = 4 bytes, BOOL, BIT, FLAG = 8 bits per byte

Each PLC file is 2000 bytes long and therefore the address values will range from zero

to a maximum value as indicated. The start address is specified in increments of the

basic data type specified under PCCC_Type.

The message buffers in the ControlNet card are each 498 bytes long and only one

message buffer can be allocated to a Map Descriptor. The Map Descriptor lengths are

therefore limited to maximum values as indicated when taking the data type byte lengths

into account.
