1.1
Safety
Designated use
ControlCare is a field-based control system comprising hardware and software modules. It can be used to visualize, monitor and control production processes. The hardware described in this manual allows a modular FOUNDATION Fieldbus or PROFIBUS controller to be built. It comprises a number of separate units that may include power supply modules, power conditioning modules, fieldbus linking devices, controllers, interfaces, analog I/O and discrete I/O units. The approved usage of the individual units used in the system can be taken from the corresponding parts of these operating instructions.
1.2
Installation, commissioning and operation
ControlCare Field Controller modules have been designed to operate safely in accordance with current technical safety and EU directives. Essential to their use is the ControlCare Application Designer software, which allows control strategies to be created for both FOUNDATION Fieldbus and PROFIBUS applications. Field devices, links, junction boxes, cables and other hardware comprising the Fieldbus sytem must also be designed to operate safely in accordance with current technical safety and EU directives. If devices are installed incorrectly or used for applications for which they are not intended, or if the controller is not configured correctly, it is possible that dangers may arise. For this reason, the system must be installed, connected, configured, operated and maintained according to the instructions in this and the associated manuals: personnel must be authorised and suitably qualified.
1.3
Location
Operational safety
Field Controllers must be mounted in a permanent and weather-protected location in a safe area. The environment shall be a metal cabinet or an installation frame with a well grounded mounting plane. The environment shall be protected. The controller must be connected to networks operating in explosion hazardous areas via barriers or other safety components. When installing components in explosion hazardous areas: Ensure that all installion and maintenance personnel are suitably qualified Check that all equipment has the appropriate safety certificates Observe the specifications in the device certificates as well as national and local regulations. This topic is discussed in BA013S (FF Guidelines) and BA034S (PROFIBUS Guidelines).
Hazardous areas
EMC
All modules are suitable for industrial use and conform with the following standard, see Appendix: EN 61326: 1997/A1: 1998 Interference emmision: Class A apparatus Interference immunity: as per Annex A, industrial environment Depending upon the environment in which the bus is operating, particular attention should be paid to the grounding of the bus cables. This topic is discussed in BA013S (FF Guidelines) and BA034S (PROFIBUS Guidelines).

1 Safety
IP Address
Field Controller is normally configured from a workstation connected into the control system backbone. You will require a unique IP address to set it up. Warning The use of IP addresses is strictly controlled. Usually your system administrator will be authorised to allocate unique addresses. Assigning an unauthorised address to a Field Controller may result in conflicts within your system and the failure of the associated devices! It is recommended that ControlCare Field Controllers and OPC servers are not installed in an office network, as the large data packets exchanged between office equipment may lead to timeouts and intermittent communication errors. Ideally, the ControlCare system network should operate within its own IP domain; if this is not possible it should be separated from other parts of the network by a managed switch. Since the system can be accessed and manipulated through the various Field Contoller tools, it is advisable to control access both to the workstation and the folders in which the configuration is stored. Always make a back-up of the project.
Technical improvement
Endress+Hauser reserves the right to make technical improvements to its software and equipment at any time and without prior notification. Where such improvements have no effect on the operation of the equipment, they are not documentated. If the improvements effect operation, a new version of the operating instructions is normally issued.
1.4
Conventions and icons
In order to highlight safety relevant or alternative operating procedures in the manual, the following conventions have been used, each indicated by a corresponding icon in the margin. Safety conventions
Icon Meaning A note highlights actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may indirectly affect operation or may lead to an instrument response which is not planned
Caution! Caution highlights actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, may lead to personal injury or incorrect functioning of the instrument Warning! A warning highlights actions or procedures which, if not performed correctly, will lead to personal injury, a safety hazard or destruction of the instrument

Add and configure the I/O function blocks
Once the Hardware Configuration and Temperature transducer blocks have been configured, they must be connected to input and output function blocks so that the I/O signals are available to the Field Controller system. Note! BA 022S/04/en, Function Block Manual, contains a general description of the function block process, including the alarming and I/O options that have been omitted for simplicity here. It also contains a detailed explanation of all function block parameters.
5.3.1
CHANNEL parameter
Note! If the multiple embedded hybrid I/O block is used to integrate the local I/O modules, the channel parameter is not required. Instead a special tool, called by clicking on the block leaf, guides the user through the configuration, see the Local I/O tutorial, BA032S/04/en. The connecting element between transducer and function block is the channel parameter. For the Field Controller I/O modules, this is compiled according to the following hierarchy:
Level Rack (R) Slot (S) Group (G) I/O Point (P) Range 0 14 03 01 07 9 = whole group
The value in the CHANNEL parameter is given by the value RSGP: Rack assembly address (R): Each rack assembly has a unique address between 0 an 14 . The rack assembly with the address "0" cannot be used by the I/O modules. Slot (S): Each rack assembly has four slots. One slot supports one I/O module. Slots are numbered from 0 (first slot) to 3 (last slot). Group (G): Ordinal number of group in the specified I/O module Groups are numbered from 0 (first group) to number of groups minus 1. Point (P): Ordinal number of I/O point in a group I/O points are numbered from 0 (first I/O point) to 7 (last I/O point in the group) 9 means the whole group of points and is used when a module is connected to a MAI, MDI, MAO or MDO function block. Thus, a single I/O point in the Field Controller may be identified by specifying the rack (R), slot (S), group (G) and point (P). As the CHANNEL parameter in the multiple I/O blocks (MIO) must specify the whole group (8 points), the point must be 9, meaning the whole group. For example: The CHANNEL parameter 1203 means rack 1, slot 2, group 0 and I/O point 3. The CHANNEL parameter for a MAI block 10119 means rack 10, slot 1, group 1 and I/O point 9, i.e. the whole group.
Provided that the HC transducer block is configured before the CHANNEL parameter, the system verifies that the I/O type configured in the HC block is suitable for block type. If the CHANNEL parameter of the AI block accesses an I/O of a different type, the setting will be rejected during download. In this case the channel is set to "0" and a corresponding error is set in the BLOCK_ERR parameter, which can be viewed online.

Pulse Input block
The Pulse Input Block provides analog output values based on a pulse (counter) transducer input. Two primary outputs are available: OUT provides an analog rate based on the number of pulses counted per block execution. It is characterized by PULSE_VAL and TIME_UNITS and the engineering units are selected by scaling the output: the resulting range can be alarmed. OUT_ACCUM is the accumulated number of pulses and is intended to be connected to an integrator block for differencing, conversion, and integration. It is used when the count rate is low relative to the block execution rate. The counter is reset by putting the block into MAN mode and entering a new value for OUT_ACCUM.

The AO block uses the OUT values to force electrical signals as shown in Tables 4-4 to 4-6. The type of output is determined by the wiring (current or voltage) and DIP switch (Range end value 5 DC or 10 VDC), see BA021S/04/en Chapter 3.5.1 Current output The parameters XD_SCALE_EU_100 and XD_SCALE_EU_0 set the range end values of the current signal output by the module. This is normally a standard 0 mA to 20 mA/4 mA to 20 mA signal, but other ranges within these limits are possible. The current output is independent of the setting of the Voltage Range DIP switch on the module and is directly proportional to the OUT value.

Connecting the Field Controller to the subnet
Warning The use of IP addresses is strictly controlled. Usually your system administrator will be authorised to allocate unique addresses. Assigning an unauthorised address to a Field Controller may result in conflicts within your system and the failure of the associated devices! Note! The tools that setup the network use Ethernet services that may be blocked by Windows Firewall. Normally the firewall will be unblocked for the tools during installation, but it might be necessary to stop the firewall should they not function properly. If you are not sure how to stop the firewall, consult your system administrator. In order to download the project, the host computer and Field Controllers must be allocated IP addresses in the same address range. It is possible to do this on the workbench before installation or after the Field Controller and other components have been physically installed in the Fieldbus network (subnet). Although Field Controllers support DHCP, for industrial systems we recommend the use of fixed IP addresses, see Chapter 6.1.1 and 6.1.2. Before starting, check the following: Internet Protocol TCP/IP is installed on your computer You have administration rights for your computer You have an set of IP addresses that have been authorized by your IT department Any proxy server for your Internet Browser is disabled
The procedures described in this chapter are for Windows XP. For other Windows systems consult your system administrator. Note! SFC162 and SFC173 Field Controllers are configured in exactly the same way. When the Field Controllers are physically connected together with the Host computer via Ethernet, HSE Network Setup will see the them irrespective of the IP address domain to which they belong

Setting the IP address of the host computer
The Field Controllers are delivered with the default IP addresses: 192.168.164.100 for Field Controller SFC162 192.168.164.101 for Field Controller SFC173. In order that the host computer can communicate with the Field Controller Web Server, it must be allocated an IP address in the same address domain, e.g. 192.168.164.200. If you are not sure how to do this, consult your network administrator. Procedure 1 Right-click Start =>Settings =>Control Panel =>Network Connections
2 Right-click Local Area Connection => Properties
3 Using the left mouse button, double-click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) or click once, then click Properties. 4 Note the original values of IP address and Subnet Mask of the computer to restore them if necessary at end of the operation.

5 Change the IP address and the Subnet Mask of the host computer to those required by the application. In the example, an address in the same subnet as the Field Controller. IP Address 192.168.164.XXX and network mask (Subnet Mask) 255.255.255.0. Do not use the addresses 192.168.164.100 or 101,as these are reserved as default addresses for the Field Controllers SFC162 and SFC173 respectively
6 Click on the OK button to complete the procedure, close the other dialogs with OK and Close.
6.2.2
Setting the Field Controller IP address
Note! It is recommended that Field Controllers of the same type are introduced one by one to the network. 1 Call HSE Network Setup: Programs =>Endress+Hauser=>ControlCare=>Tools=>HSE Network Setup 2 HSE Network Setup is launched and searches for Field Controllers in the Ethernet network.
All Field Controllers in the network appear, irrespective of their IP domain. If this is not the case: Check that the proxy server of your Internet Browser is switched off Check that the windows firewall is not blocking the program (switch off) Check all cables and switches If you find two or more Field Controllers with the same IP address, disconnect all but one from the network 3 If your computer has more than on NIC card, select the one you want to use for communication with the Field Controllers by ticking "Active NIC" and Press .

Network with DHCP Server
Note! Although it is possible to use a DHCP assigned address with the Field Controller, we do not recommend its use in practice, as there is a risk that address may change on every power cycle. A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server (DHCP server) automatically registers the presence of the Field Controller in the subnet and allocates an IP address to it. This happens automatically when the Field Controller is switched on. To use this method of addressing, your computer must have a DHCP server. In addition, the Field Controllers must be switched over to DHCP operation. Procedure 1 Change the address of the host computer to the default address range for the Field Controllers as described in Chapter 6.2.1 2 Check that all Field Controllers are disconnected from the network. 3 Connect a controller 4 Follow the procedure described in Chapter 6.2.2 In the Network Configuration dialog, tick the DHCP box instead of entering an address Update the configuration and restart the Field Controller The Field Controller is automatically allocated an address 5 Repeat the Steps 2 to 4 for all other units in the subnet. 6 Change the host IP address to the one to be used in the industrial application 7 Start up the network anew, adding one Field Controller at a time to it.

Remedy No connection to Field Controller See Remedies for Items 1, 2 and 4, Chapter 7.4.1 Field Controller is on HOLD, set it to RUN mode IP address is not configured correctly, use PING to check No connection to Field Controller Check that host and Field Controller are in same subnet No communication with Field Controller No Ethernet connection with Field Controller, check connection, IP address etc, see above No Device ID set in the Field Controller (Attributes) No communication with fieldbus/Profibus No communicaton with Field Controller, see above Fieldbus/Profibus not connected to controller DP bus parameter mismatch (Profibus) No communication with fieldbus device No communicaton with Field Controller, see above No communicaton with fieldbus/Profibus, see above No Device ID set (Attributes) Tag not assigned (Assign Tag) DP address is not unique (Profibus) DP address at device not the same as that configured in PROFIBUS configurator (Profibus) Communication error The device is not powered up The project has been updated but no download has been made yet You have either a communication problem or the configuration is not complete Check that you are on-line - press the On-line button Check that your computer is in the same address subnet Check that you have assigned the Field Controller tag Check that you have exported all tags OPC server Check that the parameters are in the recommended order Check that the OPC server is running (look for icon in bottom line) Try "Update" from the Field Controller node (SFC162 only, takes several minutes) and download again You have either a communication problem or the configuration is not complete Try downloading from HSE Network node, see above, if this does not work, check points below Configuration mismatch between PROFIBUS Configurator and Application Designer Have PROFIBUS device blocks been deleted? If so, reconfigure project in PROFIBUS Configurator The parameter has a bad status Check that the Block Mode is Auto (or Cas) Check that the block has been correctly configured Check that the device is still live (live list) Check that the device address is the same as that you have in your configuration (live list) Check that the parameter has been correctly configured Check that the tags were exported (Export Tags) Project not downloaded correctly, e.g. partial download when bridge has HSE links Repeat full download from the HSE Network node
Problem Field Controller does not appear in HSE live list

PROFIBUS Configurator
Remedy Configuration not correct Device name has spaces instead of underscores For Endress+Hauser devices each parameter has a fixed position in the configuration list, see the manuals. If you want to see Parameters 1 and 5 only, for example, free spaces/empty modules must be appended at slots 2, 3 and 4. For other devices, see operators instructions The SFC173 Field Controller supports all baudrates with the exception of 31.25 kBit Only baudrates supported by all devices can be used: For a P+F SK1 coupler = 93.75kbit/s For a Siemens coupler = 45.45 kbit/s For a P+F or Siemens link, check what baudrates are supported by all DP devices Only PROFIBUS DP devices must be set Most PROFIBUS DP slaves sense the baudrate and do not need to be set up For others, check the manufacturers instructions Use the parameters recommended by the coupler/link manufacturer or those in this manual For the P+F SK2, the parameters are automatically set according to the rate selected in the Configurator For the P+F SK1 use the ones in the PROFIBUS tutorial BA036S/04/en Yes. Select the appropriate menu, enter the IP address of the Field Controller and generate a live list Beware of timeout: if there is no activity after 2 min: Select Settings => Device Assignment... Driver Select (if TCP/IP driver) Select requested IP address Press OK Yes. You can go online and change a bus address by selecting the device followed by the the appropriate menu and typing in the old, then the new address The device must support software address setting Software address setting must be enabled The address must be unique to the bus Communication error Another device has the same address The device is not powered up Device does not support autosense of baudrate Set correct baudrate
Problem Error message on trying to leave the configuration dialog How are the cyclic I/O data configured?
3 4
What baudrates are supported? What baudrate should I use?
Where do I set the device baudrates?
What bus parameters should I use?
Can I go on-line in PROFIBUS Configurator?
Can I change a bus address in the PROFIBUS configurator?
A device does not appear in the live list
