DeltaV Serial Interface Port 1 Port 2 Serial Interface Cable Serial Interface Cable Serial Device Serial Device The Serial Interface provides communication to various serial devices including PLCs using Modbus (Master or Slave) RTU or ASCII protocol. You can configure the Serial Card to support RS232, RS422/485 half duplex or RS422/485 full duplex signals.

Serial Interface Capabilities The Serial Interface communicates with a maximum of 250 registers/coils originating in a serial device; translating them to DeltaV Device Signal Tags (DSTs). The Serial card has two communication ports, each port connecting to a single serial device using RS232 wiring. As an option, the ports may be wired using RS422/485 wiring and connected to as many as 16 devices each. The Serial Interface exchanges data with serial devices through a dataset; a collection of DeltaV parameters that correspond to registers/coils in the serial device. You configure the dataset to determine the type of registers as well as the starting address and how many registers will be read or written. You can create as many as 16 datasets for each Serial Card port. These 16 datasetscan be allocated to the serial devices in several ways. For example, you can configure one serial device with 16 datasets or you could have 16 devices on the port with one dataset each.

Serial Interface Configuration The figure above shows the flow of data from a PLC to the DeltaV controller. The Serial Interface requests data from the PLC through it’s serial port. The data type, number of registers and starting address to be requested are all part of the dataset configuration. The dataset, with the registers and their respective values, are available to the DeltaV system as DSTs or SCADA tags. Configuration of the Serial Interface requires the following steps: Step 1. Plug the Serial Interface in the appropriate slot Step 2. Configure the Serial card in the appropriate slot Step 3. Define port(s) properties Step 4. Define the Serial Device and address Step 5. Define the Dataset(s)
Serial Card Configuration The Serial Card is one of the card types in the DeltaV Explorer. You configure it as you would any other card. You can plug the card into a vacant I/O carrier slot and auto-sense it or you can configure a placeholder for the card before connecting the actual card. To configure a placeholder for the card, select the following from the DeltaV Explorer: Physical Network Control Network I/O New Card
Access the Serial Port’s properties from DeltaV Explorer by selecting: Physical Network Control Network I/O P01 Properties The PO1 Properties dialog box appears with the Porttab selected. The Properties dialog box contains such information as the port’s: Description - the description which appears when viewing port properties from the DeltaV Explorer. Enabled - causes the port to scan for input data and transmit outputs when the box is checked. Serial Port Properties
Clicking the PO1 Properties dialog box’s Advanced tab permits you to change advanced communication properties such as: Protocol Type - RTU is a standard binary data communications mode while ASCII transmits messages as ASCII strings. Mode - determines whether this port acts as a Modbus Master or a Modbus Slave. Retry Count - determines the number of times the Serial Card retries a failed message. When the Serial Card issues a Modbus request to a device it expects a response to be returned, the Serial Card retries the failed message the number of times configured in the Retry count property. Message time out - determines the amount of time the Serial Card waits for a response from the serial device after sending a request message. Transmit Delay - determines the amount of time the Serial Card delays between requests for input data and/or requests to write output data to the Modbus Device. This value is used to slow down requests that are going to a heavily loaded Modbus Device. Send outputs on startup - determines whether the Serial Card sends all current output values to the serial devices on power-up, reset or after a download. Serial Port Properties
Serial Port Properties • Clicking the PO1 Properties dialog box’s Communications tab permits you to define communication properties such as: • Port type - determines the port type to be used for the serial connection, RS232, RS422/485 Full Duplex or RS422/485 Half Duplex. • Baud rate - select the baud rate to match the serial device. (300 - 115 Kbaud) • Parity - select the parity to match the serial device. • Data bits - select the number of data bits to match the serial device. • Stop bits - select the number of stop bits to match the serial device.
Adding a Serial Device Each port can communicate with as many as 16 serial devices. Therefore, once a port is enabled, you must define the address of the serial device(s) it will communicate with. Add a serial device from the DeltaV Explorer in the following manner: Physical Network Control Network I/O P01 (right click) New Serial Devices The new serial device’s Properties dialog box appears. Enter the serial device’s address and click the OK button to continue.
A Dataset defines a set of consecutive registers to be mapped into DSTs. To define a Dataset from DeltaV Explorer select: Physical Network Control Network I/O P01 DEV01 (right click) New Dataset The Create Dataset dialog box appears with the General tab selected containing: Description - description appearing when viewing the Dataset from the DeltaV Explorer. Data Direction - defines whether this dataset sends DeltaV data to a serial device (output) or receives data from a serial device (input). Output mode - controls how the Serial Card transmits output data. If the Output Mode is complete block, the card sends all data values when any value in the dataset changes. If the Output Mode is single value, the card sends single data values (register or coil) as the values change. Output read back - determines whether the output dataset should read back registers that have been changed from within the serial device. If this box is checked, the Serial Card reads back the values during the card’s next input scan. The values that are read back update the current output values. If this box is not checked, no output read back will be performed. Dataset Definition
Dataset Definition The DeltaV tab permits you to configure the DeltaV Data Type and the Dataset Tag. • DeltaV data type - determines the type of data this dataset contains (Boolean, Discrete, Integer, and Floating Point). This field value creates storage space for the dataset and determines how the DeltaV System accesses the data. • Dataset Tag - identifies the Dataset Tag (i.e., COILS) associated with this dataset. • For example, COILS/R17 would be a parameter in the dataset that could be associated with a Discrete Output or Device Control block IO_OUT parameter to manipulate a coil in a PLC.
Dataset Definition The PLC tab permits you to define PLC information such as: • PLC data Type - defines which data table to read from or write to in the serial device. • PLC base register address - indicates the PLC register address corresponding to the first value in the Modbus device for the configured data type. • PLC register offset - identifies the starting register that maps to the first dataset parameter. • Number of values - determines the number of Modbus values (registers or coils) to be read from or written.
Assume a PLC is reading a flow transmitter and the value is stored in Holding register 40001. By bringing this value into DeltaV as a DST, you can use a control module for higher level control and alarming. This is accomplished by: Step 1. Configure a new module with a PID function block.

Step 2. Modify the IO_IN parameter to use a Dataset Tag from the PLC. Module Configuration
