V. Globiots configuration for HMI slave

5.1 Modbus Slave HMI operation

  • HMI will be a Modbus slave to connect to iConnector via RS485 Modbus RTU
  • Every 8 seconds, iConnector use schedule event to write values from other Modbus slaves to HMI
  • HMI will be pre-coded to view these values on HMI screen

5.2 iConnector event configuration

After logging in Globiots, to configure Event: right click Device name and select Event. “The List Of Event” page displays as below:

  • Import Event: Import event from excel file
  • Export Event: Export event to excel file
  • Add Event: click to add a new event
VIZUOWEB-MN-EN-H30.png
    o Event ID: from 1 to 127 (event ID is only)
    o Event name: name of event
    o Comment: explain for event
    o Priority: Any value
    o On Delay: Delay time (second) when condition is true
    o Off Delay: Delay time (second) when condition is false
    o Logical Operator (AND/OR): Logical Operator for conditions of event
    o Parameter: select parameter sent to server when event occur. Only display Real Parameter
    o Click “Save” to finish
  • Edit: Click to edit event
  • Delete: Click to delete event
  • Action: Click to configure action for event. An event might have some actions. The List of Actions page displays:
VIZUOWEB-MN-EN-H31.png
    o Add Action: click to add a new action
VIZUOWEB-MN-EN-H32.png
       Action Name: Name of Action
       Action Type: Select type of Action. There are 04 type of available action
          1. Type 1: 01- Parameter vs constant: Action to assign constant to parameter if condition is true
          2. Type 2: 02-parameter vs parameter: Action to assign constant to parameter if condition is true and false
          3. Type 3: Action to assign value of source parameter to value of destination parameter if condition is true
          4. Type 4: Action to assign value of source parameter to value of destination parameter if condition is true and false
       Repeat: tick to implement action once condition is still true. If Repeat: is not ticked, the action only is implemented when condition from FALSE to TRUE.
       Value true: constant assigned to parameter when condition is true
       Value false: constant assigned to parameter when condition is false
       Write Parameter: Destination parameter which is assigned value
       Read Parameter: Source parameter
       True Parameter: Source parameter if condition is true
       False Parameter: Source parameter if condition is false
       Save: click “save” to finish
    o Edit: click to edit action of event
    o Delete: click to delete action
Note: Written parameter in action must have address in range 3000-307F
  • Condition: click to configure condition of event. An event might have one or multi conditions. Value of total condition is formed from logical operator of multi conditions

    o Add Condition: click to add new condition
VIZUOWEB-MN-EN-H34.png
       Condition Name: Name of condition
       Condition Type: Type of condition. There are 3 types of condition
        + Type 1: 01- Parameter vs constant: Compare value of parameter to constant
        + Type 2: 02-parameter vs parameter: Compare value of parameter to value of another parameter
        + Type 3: 03- Parameter (bit) vs constant: Compare value of bit complex of parameter to constant
       Condition: Compare value of a parameter to constant or value of a parameter to value of another parameter. Compare Operators are less than, less than or equal to, equal to, not equal, greater than, greater than or equal to
       Click “Save” to finish
    o Edit: click to edit condition of event
VIZUOWEB-MN-EN-H35.png
    o Delete: click to delete a condition of event
       Note:
       Each Event have maximum 8 conditions
       After configure Event, you must synchronized (refer to 5.11 Synchronize Device for more details)
Example:
Configure Event to create parameter Power Status:
Power Status =1 when iConnector Power Supply > 8 VDC and Main Meter Error=0 in
more than 2s.
Power Status=0 when iConnector Power Supply <=8 and Main Meter Error=0 in more
than 3 s.
When event occur, event will be sent to server
Configuration for this event, condition and action as follow:

For schedule written to HMI slave device every 8 second, the event configuration as below:

  • Condition:

Condition type: Use condition type 3 (Parameter (bit) vs constant: Compare value of bit complex of parameter to constant), bit 3

Condition parameter: iConnector second parameter will be use

  • Action: 

Action type: Use action type 3: Action to assign value of source parameter to value of destination parameter if condition is true

Source parameter: Parameters from slave devices except HMI slave device

Destination parameter: Parameter to HMI slave device
