Overview

The TS-1800 is a Modbus peripheral device that provides 14 ADC channels, 8 digital outputs, and 16 digital inputs.

Getting Started

Power Requirements

The TS-1800 will operate within a range of 10-28 VDC on either Modbus port. Power supplied on the Modbus port is passed along the bus as an active power rail on the other Modbus port. Do not apply power to both Modbus ports.

Features

TS Modbus Support

The TS-1800 can be utilized as a device in a chain of devices on the RS-485 Modbus port; or, as a single peripheral device pm a USB port. When operating on the USB port, the default device address is 0xf6 (246) and the default bit rate is 1,000,000 bps.

When using all Technologic Systems Modbus devices we include functionality to create an arbitrary chain of stock peripherals to automatically enumerate all connected devices, configure them, and generate an I/O map of all connected devices.

TS Modbus Autoconfiguration

The autoconfiguration works by using the optional mode pin on the RJ45 connector as designated in the MODBUS-2W standard. Technologic Systems uses this to indicate if it is a TS device. If it is asserted (low) to a TS device, then it will allow access to the #Holding Registers at address 0xf7.

This will identify the TS Modbus device model, set the first device in the chain to the user specified slave address (default is 0x10), and assert the mode line to the next port to enumerate the next device. The next device address is incremented by 1, and the process is repeated until no slave responds to a read query (timeout)indicats that no additional devices are connected to the bus chain. At this point the last device in the chain is configured to enable bus termination on the RS485 link, and all devices have their bit rates set to the user selected bit rate (default is 9600).


Funciontality

The TS-1800 provides the following electrically (optically) isolated interfaces:

  • 14 Single Ended ADC channels consisting of:
    • 8 Unipolar ADC channels in the range 0-30 or 0-7.5 VDC
      • Channels 0-1, 2-3, & 4-7 may be configured in blockes to operate as 4-20 mA instrumentation ports. WARNING: Applying more than 5 VDC or more than 22 mA on any unipolar channel while configured for 4-20 mA operation will damage the unit.
    • 6 Bipolar ADC channels in the range +/- 30 or +/- 7.5 VDC
  • 8 digital outputs with 6-bit PWM each driving open drain 500 mA sink capacity
  • 16 digital inputs (0-30 VDC)

Each ADC channel can be enabled or disabled individually and can be set for resolution (and associated sample rate) as follows:

  • 12 bits per sample @ 240 SPS
  • 14 bits per sample @ 60 SPS
  • 16 bits per sample @ 15 SPS

Register Interface

Holding Registers

The interface to all Modbus peripheral devices consists of a set of 127 holding registers. These registers are used to configure the device operation, read and write input output parameters, as well as various settings used to configurable Modbus Address, Termination enable, Data Format, and Bit Rate. These settings are common to all of our Modbus peripherals and can be persisted in on-board flash memory.

NOTE: The device operates ONLY in Modbus RTU communications mode. Modbus ASCII is not presently supported.

Address (hex) Address (dec) Access Description Example Values
0x70 112 Read/Write Modbus Mode 0 = ASCII (unimplemented), 1 = RTU
0x71 113 Read/Write RS485 Bus Termination Enable 0 = Termination disabled, 1 = Termination enabled

0x7b 123 Read/Write Reserved or model specific Not applicable or model specific
0x7c 124 Read/Write Reserved or model specific Not applicable or model specific
0x7d 125 Read/Write Write listed value to persist communications (Bit rate, Data format, Address, and Termination) parameters to internal nonvolatile storage: 0xFEED = Persist configuration, 0xDEAD = Erase configuration, 0xC0DE apply configuration without persistence. In all cases the value is set to zero when completed or 0xFA17 (FAIL) if error.
0x7e 126 Read/Write Reserved or model specific Not applicable or model specific

NOTE: All Read Only registers may be written; however, writing to certain registers (e.g., Unit Model) will overwrite the information that will not be refreshed until the unit is reset.

Output Channel Control Register

Bit 15 Bits 14-6 Bits 5-0
1: Direct DIO output; 0: PWM DIO output Unused (Reserved) PWM Value - 0: Off; 63: 98.4% On

The PWM is scaled in increments of 1/64 (1.56%) per bit in the range of 0/64 through 63/64. To set 100% you must set the Direct DIO Output bit in this register and then set the appropriate bit in the direct output register at holding register 34 (hex 22). NOTE: The PWM range is 0 to 98.4%. The easiest way to do direct per bit control is the set the appropriate output control register (0x12-0x19) to 0x8000 and manupulate the bit in DIO Output (0x22). To use the full range of the PWM, set the appropriate output register bit (0x22) to 1. Then set the ADC control register to a value from 0 to 63 (0-98.4%) or 0x8000 (100%).

Setting the Start bit will begin the configuration. When the unit configuration is completed, the Start bit will be cleared, and the Complete bit will be set. If any erros occurred (generally an invalid setting), the Error bit will also be set.

  DIO Configration for Model TS-1700
root@ts4700:/home/zpu#

This program is used to perform configuration of a Modbus device. On older modbuc devices these settings (Slave address, Communications bit rate and data format, termination) would have been performed via DIP switches. This configuration information is stored in non-volatile memory on the device.


The primary difference in usage of these utilities depends on the hosting platform.

On SBC products using the XUART communications devices, the -c switch and parameter does not need to be specified, since the default communications port is correct.

On the TS-7670 with a standard UART communications device, the '-m 7670' switch should be specified. This allows the proper hardware setting for the RS-485 port to be utilized.

On SBC products with a host USB port for communications, the -c switch should be specified and paramater should be the USB to Serial communication device, which is generally '/dev/ttyACM0'. The '-s f6' switch and parameter is required since the unit operates at a different slave address when operating via USB. The bit rate does not need to be specified, since the USB port will operate at the fastest rate possible (up to approximately 1000000 bps).
