  1. Modbus to DNP3 Protocol Converter Group 24: Joshua Daly, CpE Daniel Doherty, CpE Mac Lightbourn , EE Joseph Wilkinson, EE

  2. Modbus vs. DNP3 Project motivation: MPE needs to allow for communication between network nodes that are using these different protocols.

  3. Four-Semester Plan Phase I Device Build User Interface Initialization Phase II Network Communications Security

  4. Key Specs • Operates between -10 and 80 degrees Celsius • Protects against surges of 120 V • MCU clock has a backup battery that can power the MCU for 12 hours if power is lost • Sends alarm to master device when power is lost • Takes Ethernet input and gives Ethernet output • Allows user to view and change networking parameters • Logs 20,000 events, even when power is lost, with 98% fidelity • Records date and time of each event to millisecond accuracy • Notifies master device of all events with 95% fidelity

  5. Four-Layer PCB Design

  6. Choosing an MCU

  7. ENC28J60 J00-0045NL

  8. Push Buttons and LEDs

  9. Firmware Overview • Menu system • Allows user to adjust stored parameters • Strict requirements from the sponsor • Creation of data Structs to maintain parameters • Initializing the device • Handle all button functionality

  10. Coding Environments • Visual Studio • Used while PCB board was in development • Familiar environment • Code Warrior • Freescale MCU • Optimization of .s19 file

  11. Data Storage • Stored in the EEPROM • Storage requirements • Factory defined • User defined

  12. Initializing the Device

  13. Buttons • Required Guidelines • Button Functionality • Menu Navigation • Time Delayed press

  14. Button Logic Flow Chart

  15. Screen • Display Screen • 3 7-segement displays • Mimic the current display used by MPE • Allows user to visually navigate and set parameters

  16. Power Subsystem

  17. Power Supply Requirements Takes in 24 V DC • This supply is shared with other components in the lift station control panel • This is a low voltage in comparison to other devices being used in industrial applications • The low voltage bypasses some of the testing requirements for meeting UL standards

  18. Power Supply Requirements Surge Protection • Must handle currents up to 80 mA • Must correct irregular voltages • Multiple devices are connected in a shunt configuration for combined benefits

  19. Power Supply Requirements

  20. Input Surge Protection

  21. Power Supply Requirements Must be fed through a DIN rail mount • All devices in the lift station control panel attach to one rail • Mount also serves as chassis ground for added surge protection

  22. DC/DC Converter • Voltage is stepped down to 3.3 V and then fed to the power plane • To conserve power, a passive switching regulator was chosen • Our configuration is a common circuit with extensive application notes

  23. Testing Why do we test?

  24. Testing • Power Up • The three 7-segment LEDs must synchronously display each number for 100 (+/- 25) milliseconds from 0-9 in ascending order within 2 seconds after power up. • The menu scroll LED must illuminate for 1 (+/- 0.1) second within 2 seconds after power up. • The value change LED must illuminate for 1 (+/- 0.1) second within 2 seconds after power up. • The power LED must illuminate within 1 second after power up.

  25. Testing • Button Scroll • When operating in menu scroll mode, the three 7-segment LEDs must display the parameter number with the following format where XX is a parameter number between 00 and 99: P.XX. • The displayed parameter list must circle to the beginning of the list when cycled up at d.06 • The displayed parameter list must circle to the end of the list when cycled down at E.01

  26. Testing • Sleep/Wake • The user interface LEDs must not remain illuminated if all user interface inputs are inactive for 120 (+/- 2) seconds. • When in a state of inactivity, the unit must transition to a state of activity • The state of user action must be preserved when the user interface LEDs are extinguished due to inactivity. • The state of user action must be reinstated when the unit returns from an inactive state.

  27. Challenges • How does it all work • Hardware challenges • Firmware challenges
