Remote HMI Connection

1 General

The PMA 300 includes a local Human Machine Interface for monitoring, control and alarms in
form of one or several SIMATIC touch panels (MP370 series). The PMA 300 can however
exchange data with external HMI systems i.e. data, alarms and events may be sent to the
HMI, and commands and set points may be received from the HMI.
The exchange of data may be performed using a selection of different protocols. Common for
all protocols is the data structure of the send/receive user data as described later in this
document.
The following transport protocols are possible in PMA300:
1. PROFIBUS DP (Distributed Periphery) - PMA300 as one or several PROFIBUS DP
slave(s).
2. PROFIBUS FDL (Fieldbus Data Link) – Send/Receive SIEMENS proprietary inter-
face.
3. Industrial Ethernet – SIMATIC NET Compatible driver (Non-standard, optional).
4. MODBUS – PMA300 as one or several MODBUS slave(s) (Non-standard, optional).
In addition, other protocols may be handled by protocol converters.
Due to the nature of the PMA software and the remote interface capabilities a subset of the
information contained in the PMA controllers are offered to the remote system. Additional in-
formation (if necessary) must be collected directly from the switchboard (or elsewhere) using
discrete I/Os.

CAUTION
! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To avoid ambiguous operation of the PMA system it is only possible to operate the
PMA from either the remote location or from the local operator panel at any time.
The changeover of operator location is performed using the local operator panel or
from the remote system itself. The change is on a per bus bar segment basis.
In local operating mode no commands are accepted from the remote system.
How to apply the information given in this document is entirely up to the designer(s)
of the remote control/alarm system, although some guidelines are given.

2 Protocol Descriptions

2.1 PROFIBUS DP
PROFIBUS DP is the easiest way of interfacing the PMA300, because it is well known in automation
engineering environments and demands very little higher level programming. The main part of the
connection configuration is performed during the hardware setup and configuration.

The PMA300 acts as one or several PROFIBUS DP slave(s) communication on a serial RS485 line
with the remote HMI acting as master.

The PMA300 slaves are communication processors which interfaces the PMA300 CPU at one end
and the remote HMI master at the other end. The PMA300 is fitted with one common communication
processor for all generator sets belonging to one physical main bus bar segment. Each communica-
tion processor acts as one PROFIBUS DP slave.

In a typical main switchboard configuration with two main bus bar segments separated by one bus tie
breaker, the PMA300 presents two PROFIBUS DP slaves, thus two PROFIBUS DP links must be con-
figured.

2.1.1 Properties of PROFIBUS DP protocol used:

• RS-485 Hardware layer
• STANDARD bus profile
• Only DPV0 is supported
• Transmission speed is 500kBit/s
• Slave addresses: First slave to the left (Port side): 10, slave address for next bus bar segment
is 12, an increase of 2 for further slaves (14,16…)

2.1.2 Configuring PROFIBUS DP Master

In order to configure the remote HMI system PROFIBUS DP Master it is necessary to obtain the cor-
rect GSD file for the SIMATIC communication processors of type CP342-5 version 5.0 or higher. This
file is available on the internet at following link:
http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/llisapi.dll/csfetch/113652/CP342-
5_12MB_V5.ZIP?func=cslib.csFetch&nodeid=18716312

The file is available as plain text in appendix A.

NB! How the vendor of the remote HMI selects to configure the PROFIBUS DP master in terms of
addressing the data to be received / send is up to the vendor as long the data length for send/receive
is ensured. In addition it is important to select word consistency or complete consistency for data seg-
ments containing integer data.

Example: Configuring master for a slave containing send / receive data for Common data and two
generator sets:
Number of bytes to be received by master : 240 bytes (120 words)
Number of bytes to be send by master : 66 bytes (33 words)

Configuration:
DP ID TYPE ADDRESS in MASTER
64 64 WORDS AI / Total Consistency Input offset n+0
64 32 WORDS AI / Total Consistency Input offset n+128
64 16 WORDS AI / Total Consistency Input offset n+192
64 8 WORD AI / Total Consistency Input offset n+224
128 32 WORDS AO / Total Consistency Output offset m+0
128 1 WORDS AO / Total Consistency Output offset m+64

2.2 PROFIBUS FDL

The PROFIBUS FDL data communication protocol is a layer 2 protocol utilizing the SEND / RECEIVE
interface of the communication processors. Instead of a low level transport handshaking like
PROFIBUS DP, this protocol requires some higher level programmed interface functions.
The protocol ensure the quality of the data send/received by SDA (Send Data Acknowledge) function-
ality. An additional advantage is that several logic links can share the same physical link, thus only
one communication processor per CPU is needed to handle user data from several bus tie sections.

The data is send in block of max, 236 bytes of user data and a header of 8 bytes describing the user
data size, destination addresses etc.

This protocol is mainly used for SIEMENS SIMATIC remote HMI systems, but can as well be imple-
mented on third party systems by use of SIMATIC NET S7 drivers and custom made functions.

2.3 Industrial Ethernet

This protocol in only optional available and must be agreed upon on a project to project basis.

2.4 MODBUS

This protocol in only optional available and must be agreed upon on a project to project basis.

3 Data types
The send/receive user data uses only two different data types, these are :
1. BOOLean
2. INTeger

3.1 BOOL - Data type

BOOL data type :
Size : 1 bit
Range : 0 – 1, FALSE (0) – TRUE (1)

3.2 INT – Data type

INT data type :
Size : 16 bit (2 bytes) Lowest byte address is MSB, highest byte address is LSB
Range : -32768 - +32767
Ex. Bit pattern for integer value +44 shown in table below.

BYTE N BYTE N+1

SIGN
BIT 15 14 13 12 11 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 BIT0

0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0

4 User data
The user data structures are independent of which communication protocol is used. The data are
mainly divided into SEND user data and RECEIVE user data. These sub divisions of user data are
again divided into COMMON user data and generator specific data for each generator set. Due to re-
strictions by the PROFIBUS protocol the maximum number of bytes which may be transmitted in one
frame is 240 bytes, thus the user data made available for a remote HMI system is limited to this
amount of data in order to keep the communication link simple and efficient without a lot of higher level
handshake and flow control, this functions are left to the lower layers in the PROFIBUS protocols. To
keep the standard user data structure it remains the same with the same limitation when optionally
used with Industrial Ethernet communication too.

The user data are mainly divided into to groups; SEND data and RECEIVE data (as seen from the
PMA300 perspective).

4.1 Overview SEND user data

Organisation of SEND user data (SENT user data to remote HMI system):

102.0 46 DG “B” DATA2)

148.0 46 DG “C” DATA2)

194.0 46 DG “D” DATA2)

Table 4-1 : User SEND data overview

1 – Common data for complete PMA300 if DG “A” is master on bus bar segment.
2 – DG “A” is the leftmost generator set on current bus bar section; DG “D” is rightmost generator set
on current bus bar section; PORT = left and STARBOARD = right. Attention! Bus bars might be mir-
rored.

NOTE/CAUTION
! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In general all commands are of pulse type. I.e. the commands should be transmit-
ted to the PMA 300 subsystem as an edge (one shot or with limited duration). The
command CommonCMD.HMIRemoteSelectOn must be a steady signal !
No commands are accepted by the PMA 300 unless remote control is selected.
The communication test toggle, ImAliveToggle, must either be a square wave pulse
train with a 50% duty cycle and a pulse length of 1 second, or it must be connected
locally to the CommonData.ImAliveToggle. The latter contains the specified square
wave pulse train, and it can thus be used by the remote system as a watchdog for
the PMA.

NOTE/CAUTION
! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In general all commands are of pulse type. I.e. the commands should be transmit-
ted to the PMA 300 subsystem as an edge (one shot or with limited duration)
All commands in bold writing does only apply to sets in master mode. Sets that are
capable of assuming master mode are the first sets on the busbar segment. These
sets are normally located as the first set in the interface data area. This is always
true if a two CPU configuration is present. In a one CPU configuration the master
mode sets are located in the same interface data area. The state
DGxDP.States.Master indicates whether the set is in master mode or not (see below)

The start order (SSC) can only be sent to the first set (DPDG1.XSSC.StartOrder.Set01…)
on the port CPU. Only enter start order for as many sets as there are sets in the
configuration. In order to activate the start order the start order enter command has
to be activated (DPDG1.XSSC.Commands.Enter)
No commands are accepted by the PMA 300 unless remote control is selected.
The commands DPDGx.XASL.Commands.Increase, DPDGx.XASL.Commands.Decrease, and
DPDGx.XASL.Setpoints.ASLSetpoint depends on the ASL mode selected when configur-
ing the individual set. Increase/decrease and sepoint control is never available si-
multaneously.
