Modify the watchdog time of the PROFINET IO device under 16 STEP7
3.2 Check if the installation of PROFINET IO communication equipment meets the specifications
Most cases of PROFINET IO communication interference problems are caused by equipment installation that does not comply with the installation specifications for PROFINET IO communication, such as incomplete shielding, unreliable grounding, and being too close to interference sources. Installation that meets the specifications can avoid communication failures caused by electromagnetic interference. You can refer to the following brief installation requirements for PROFINET:
1. Wiring of PROFINET 2301 TRICONEX controller
In order to reduce the coupling of electric and magnetic fields, the larger the parallel distance between PROFINET and other power cable interference sources, the better. In accordance with IEC 61918, the minimum distance between PROFINET shielded cables and other cables can be referred to Table 1. PROFINET 2301 TRICONEX controller can be wired together with other data cables, network cables, and shielded analog cables. If it is an unshielded power cable, the minimum distance is 200mm.
Comprehensive analysis of the principle and application skills of microcontroller IO port
IO port operation is the most basic and important knowledge in microcontroller practice. This article takes a long time to introduce the principles of IO ports. I also consulted a lot of materials to ensure the accuracy of the content, and spent a long time writing it. The principle of IO ports originally required a lot of in-depth knowledge, but here it has been simplified as much as possible for easy understanding. This will be of great help in solving various IO port related problems in the future.
The IO port equivalent model is my original method, which can effectively reduce the difficulty of understanding the internal structure of the IO port. And after consulting and confirming, this model is basically consistent with the actual working principle.
I mentioned a lot earlier, and many people may already be eager to actually operate microcontrollers. The IO port, as the main means of communication between the microcontroller and the outside world, is the most basic and important knowledge for microcontroller learning. Previously, we programmed and implemented an experiment to light up the LED at the IO port. This article will continue to introduce the relevant knowledge of the IO port.
In order to better learn the operation of IO ports, it is necessary to understand the internal structure and related concepts of IO ports. These knowledge are very helpful for subsequent learning, with a focus on understanding and no need to memorize them intentionally. If you don”t remember, just come back and take a look. If you use it too much, you will naturally remember.
We have said that the most accurate and effective way to understand a chip is to refer to official chip manuals and other materials. But for beginners of microcontrollers, it may be difficult to understand the chip manual directly, especially when they see a bunch of English, unfamiliar circuits, and terminology. If it were me, I would definitely be crazy. But here I still provide a picture taken from Atmel”s official “Atmel 8051 Microcontrollers Hardware Manual”.
The purpose of giving this picture is not to dampen everyone”s enthusiasm for learning, but to help everyone understand how the various microcontroller materials we have seen come from and whether they are accurate. All of these can be clarified through official information, which will be helpful for everyone to further learn something in the future.
Introduction to the Second Function
The above figure is the authoritative 51 microcontroller IO port structure diagram provided by the official. It can be seen that the internal structure of the four sets of IO ports of the microcontroller is different, because some IO ports have a secondary function, as mentioned in the introductory section.
Do you remember this pin diagram? The second function name of the IO port is marked in parentheses. Except for P1, each interface has a second function. When introducing the microcontroller system module, I mentioned that the 51 microcontroller has an interface for reserved extended memory, which is the second function of P0 and P1 in the figure (while also using pins such as 29 and 30). Because it is not widely used and involves in-depth knowledge, no specific research will be conducted. By the way, the AD0~AD7 we see here are actually used for parallel ports. The second function of the P3 port, including serial port, will be introduced in detail later.
The drawbacks of network IO and the advantages of multiplexing IO
In order to talk about multiplexing, of course, we still need to follow the trend and adopt a whiplash approach. First, we will talk about the drawbacks of traditional network IO and use the pull and step method to grasp the advantages of multiplexing IO.
For the convenience of understanding, all the following code is pseudo code, and it is sufficient to know the meaning it expresses.
Blocking IO
The server wrote the following code to handle the data of client connections and requests.
Listenfd=socket()// Open a network communication port
Bind (listenfd)// binding
Listen (listenfd)// Listening while (1){
Connfd=accept (listenfd)// Blocking connection establishment
Int n=read (connfd, buf)// Blocking read data
DoSomeThing (buf)// What to do with the data you read
Close (connfd)// Close the connection and wait for the next connection in a loop
}
This code will be executed with stumbling blocks, just like this.
It can be seen that the thread on the server is blocked in two places, one is the accept function and the other is the read function.
If we expand on the details of the read function again, we will find that it is blocked in two stages.
This is traditional blocking IO.
The overall process is shown in the following figure.
So, if the client of this connection continues to not send data, the server thread will continue to block on the read function and not return, nor will it be able to accept other client connections.
This is definitely not feasible.
Non blocking IO
To solve the above problem, the key is to modify the read function.
A clever approach is to create a new process or thread every time, call the read function, and perform business processing.
While (1){
Connfd=accept (listenfd)// Blocking connection establishment
Pthread_ Create (doWork)// Create a new thread
}
Void doWork(){
Int n=read (connfd, buf)// Blocking read data
DoSomeThing (buf)// What to do with the data you read
Close (connfd)// Close the connection and wait for the next connection in a loop
}
In this way, once a connection is established for a client, it can immediately wait for a new client connection without blocking the read request from the original client.
However, this is not called non blocking IO, it just uses multithreading to prevent the main thread from getting stuck in the read function and not going down. The read function provided by the operating system is still blocked.
So true non blocking IO cannot be achieved through our user layer tricks, but rather by imploring the operating system to provide us with a non blocking read function.
The effect of this read function is to immediately return an error value (-1) when no data arrives (reaches the network card and is copied to the kernel buffer), rather than waiting for blocking.
The operating system provides this feature by simply setting the file descriptor to non blocking before calling read.
Fcntl (connfd, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK);
Int n=read (connfd, buffer)= SUCCESS;
In this way, the user thread needs to loop through the call to read until the return value is not -1, and then start processing the business.
We noticed a detail here.
Non blocking read refers to the stage where data is non blocking before it reaches the network card, or before it reaches the network card but has not been copied to the kernel buffer.
When the data has reached the kernel buffer, calling the read function is still blocked and requires waiting for the data to be copied from the kernel buffer to the user buffer before returning.
The overall process is shown in the following figure
IO multiplexing
Creating a thread for each client can easily deplete the thread resources on the server side.
Of course, there is also a clever solution. After accepting each client connection, we can put the file descriptor (connfd) into an array.
Fdlist. add (connfd);
Then create a new thread to continuously traverse the array and call the non blocking read method for each element.
While (1){
For (fd “- fdlist){
If (read (fd)!=- 1){
DoSomeThing();
}
}
}
In this way, we successfully processed multiple client connections with one thread.
Do you think this means some multiplexing?
But this is just like using multithreading to transform blocked IO into seemingly non blocking IO. This traversal method is just a small trick that our users have come up with, and every time we encounter a read that returns -1, it is still a system call that wastes resources.
Making system calls in a while loop is not cost-effective, just like making rpc requests while working on distributed projects.
So, we still need to plead with the operating system boss to provide us with a function that has such an effect. We will pass a batch of file descriptors to the kernel through a system call, and the kernel layer will traverse them to truly solve this problem.
Application of Data Acquisition IO Module in Thermal Power Plant System2301 TRICONEX controller
The Ethernet IO module is a data acquisition and control device. It uses Ethernet as a communication method to transmit data from various industrial control sensors and actuators to computers or other devices for management and monitoring. As a modern energy supply base, thermal power plants need to widely apply various intelligent control technologies to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve safety. In this context, the application of barium rhenium Ethernet IO modules is particularly important.
In the application of thermal power plants, the main function of the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module is to achieve real-time monitoring and control of the production process. By connecting to various sensors and actuators, the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module can collect real-time environmental parameters, machine operation status, and other data of the thermal power plant. By analyzing and processing these data, commanders can understand the operation of the thermal power plant and make corresponding adjustments. Compared to traditional automatic control systems, the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module has the advantages of stronger flexibility, faster reaction speed, and higher accuracy, which can greatly improve the operational efficiency and reliability of thermal power plants.
The real-time monitoring and control of thermal power plants require many capabilities of barium rhenium Ethernet IO modules. Here are several common application scenarios:
Firstly, the barium rhenium module can monitor parameters such as gas flow and water flow in thermal power plants. These parameters are crucial for ensuring the normal operation of the thermal power plant. Once these parameters undergo abnormal changes, the DO channel can be connected to the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module, and the alarm signal will immediately sound to remind the command personnel to handle it. Meanwhile, due to the fact that the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module can collect these data in real-time and transmit it to the monitoring system for recording, it can provide better technical support for quality management in thermal power plants.
Secondly, the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module can also monitor the operating status of mechanical equipment in thermal power plants. This includes parameters such as temperature, pressure, vibration, etc. By monitoring and analyzing these parameters, the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module can detect machine equipment faults in a timely manner, thereby avoiding the expansion of losses. In addition, during machine equipment maintenance, historical data recorded by the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module can be used to develop more scientific and reasonable maintenance plans, reduce maintenance costs, and improve maintenance efficiency.
Finally, the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module can also help thermal power plants achieve distributed control. We can remotely control and monitor multiple areas of the thermal power plant by connecting multiple barium rhenium modules to a network. This not only reduces the on-site debugging of equipment, but also strengthens the evaluation of equipment reliability.
In summary, the barium rhenium Ethernet IO module has unique advantages in real-time monitoring and control of thermal power plants. It can help command personnel monitor machine data in real-time, discover abnormal information, take timely measures to avoid impacts, and improve production efficiency and safety.
Remote IO modules based on Ethernet communication are widely used in the field of industrial IoT
With the development of IIOT (Industrial IOT) industrial Internet of Things technology, many traditional assets need to be connected to the internet to achieve unified data collection, analysis, processing, and storage, breaking the traditional phenomenon of device information silos. Therefore, the MQTT Ethernet IO acquisition module M160T, which supports the Internet of Things protocol, is able to unleash its potential by being compatible with existing devices and able to connect to IoT platforms. The MQTT Ethernet IO acquisition module will be widely used in industrial IoT, such as smart property, smart parks, smart factories, smart transportation, smart water conservancy, smart agriculture, smart campuses, smart communities, smart distribution, smart water conservancy, and many other industries.
Ethernet communication technology is a mature communication technology that has been widely applied. Therefore, Ethernet communication is the first choice for enterprises to connect various assets to the Internet of Things platform. Its reasons are stable and reliable, mature technology, fast transmission speed, and fast construction wiring.2301 TRICONEX controller
For traditional various assets, such as low-voltage distribution rooms, air compressor rooms, property and living pump rooms, street light control, liquid level collection, temperature and humidity collection, etc., through the MQTT Ethernet IO collection module, they can be quickly connected to the Internet of Things platform.
So, what characteristics do MQTT Ethernet IO modules need to have when used in IoT solutions? The details are as follows:
1. Actively connect to cloud platforms:
Based on the characteristics of Ethernet communication networking, the Ethernet IO acquisition module must support the TCP Client function, which is not only the TCP client function, so that the Ethernet IO module can actively connect to the IoT platform without the need for complex settings such as peanut shells;
2. Compatible with existing systems:
Support TCP Server and Modbus TCP protocol functions, which can be compatible with traditional upper computer systems or device access of HMI”s TCP client;
3. Access to IoT platforms:
Supports standard MQTT protocol and Modbus TCP protocol, and can be connected to various MQTT protocol IoT platforms such as Huawei Cloud and Alibaba Cloud, or traditional SCADA and DCS systems;
4. Rich IO interfaces and scalability:
There are various types of data to be collected on site, and it is necessary to support the collection of various devices such as 4-20Ma, RS485, DI, DO, etc. At the same time, it is also necessary to have the ability to read RS485 device instrument data or expand the functions of the IO acquisition module;
5. Easy installation method:
The volume of the control box is very limited, so it is necessary to use directly inserted and unplugged wiring terminals, as well as a rail installation method.
6. Industrial grade design
The industrial environment is harsh, and the Ethernet IO module must adopt an industrial grade design to ensure continuous and stable operation in harsh environments.
Through the MQTT Ethernet IO acquisition module, there is no need to replace various existing enterprise assets and the digital transformation of accessing IoT platforms can be quickly achieved. Therefore, the MQTT Ethernet IO acquisition module will be widely used in industrial IoT, such as smart properties, smart parks, smart factories, smart transportation, smart water conservancy, smart agriculture, smart campuses, smart communities, smart power distribution, smart water conservancy, and many other industries.
What is the difference between remote IO and distributed IO
People often discuss the difference between remote IO and distributed IO. However, some people believe that they are the same and terms can be exchanged, while others believe the opposite. What is the difference between remote I/O and distributed I/O? The following is a guide from remote IO manufacturer Zhongshan Technology to understand the difference between remote IO and distributed IO.
Remote and distributed within the location range.2301 TRICONEX controller
Today”s DCS is a control system with many distributed autonomous controllers, each with many continuous operations. This controller is bundled together by a central monitoring controller. We have used the terms remote and distributed in the locations of I/O and controllers. It is easy to see how these terms are misunderstood.
From the perspective of PLC, remote I/O represents the actual distance that the I/O module is away from the control PLC. Distributed I/O is very intelligent, as mentioned earlier, remote I/O is sometimes referred to as distributed I/O. Let”s take a look at the definition of distributed I/O. This definition is different from remote I/O.
Generally speaking, distributed I/O has a brain or some computing power. By default, it is remote. As mentioned earlier, remote I/O is located physically far from the control PLC. Remote I/O has no brain and cannot perform any computational functions at all. It can be said with certainty that when you hear the term remote I/O, it only involves one controller or PLC, while distributed I/O has multiple controllers.
ZSR-Ethernet-2184 is a distributed Ethernet RTU that supports 4-way switch digital input (Di), 8-way analog input (Ai), 4-way relay (Do) output, 1-way RS485 serial port data acquisition to Ethernet, and Modbus RTU terminal. Merge 485 to Ethernet serial port server function, support Modbus to TCP/UDP protocol conversion, support virtual serial port, and interface with various configuration software. Supports signal acquisition in the range of 0-5V, 0-10V, 0-30V, or 0-20ma, 4-20ma, with built-in software and hardware watchdog, industrial grade components, and stable operation in an industrial environment of -40~85 ° C.
Building a High Channel Density Digital IO Module for the Next Generation Industrial Automation Controller
There are currently many articles introducing Industry 4.0, and smart sensors are becoming increasingly popular in factory environments (I and other authors have written about these topics). Although we have all noticed a significant increase in the use of sensors in factories, processing plants, and even some newly built automation systems, the widespread use of sensors has also brought about an important change, which is the need to handle a large amount of IO within these old controllers. These IOs may be digital or analog. This requires the construction of high-density IO modules with size and heat limitations.
Usually, digital IO in PLC consists of discrete devices such as resistors/capacitors or independent FET drives. In order to minimize the size of the controller as much as possible and to handle 2 to 4 times the number of channels, this has led to a shift from a separate approach to an integrated approach.2301 TRICONEX controller
We can use the entire article to illustrate the drawbacks of the split method, especially when the number of channels processed by each module reaches 8 or more. However, when it comes to high heat/power consumption, a large number of split components (from the perspective of size and mean time between failures (MTBF)), and the need for reliable system specifications, it is sufficient to demonstrate that the split method is not feasible.
Figure 1 shows the technical challenges faced in building high-density digital input (DI) and digital output (DO) modules. In both DI and DO systems, size and heat dissipation issues need to be considered.
Design a High Channel Density Digital Input Module
The traditional split design uses a resistive voltage divider network to convert 24V/48V signals into signals that can be used by microcontrollers. The front-end can also use discrete RC filters. If isolation is required, external optocouplers are sometimes used
For example, the current limiting value of DI devices in ADI is 3.5mA/channel. So, as shown in the figure, we use two channels in parallel. If the system must be connected to a Type 2 input, adjust the REFDI resistance and RIN resistance. For some newer components, we can also use pins or select current values through software.
To support a 48V digital input signal (not a common requirement), a similar process needs to be used, and an external resistor must be added to adjust the voltage threshold at one end of the field. Set the value of this external resistor so that the current limiting value * R+threshold of the pin meets the voltage threshold specification at one end of the field (see device data manual).
Finally, due to the connection between the digital input module and the sensor, the design must meet the requirements of reliable operating characteristics. When using a split type scheme, these protective functions must be carefully designed. When selecting integrated digital input devices, ensure that the following are determined according to industry standards:
Wide input voltage range (e.g. up to 40V).
Able to use on-site power supply (7V to 65V).
Capable of withstanding high ESD (± 15kV ESD air gap) and surges (usually 1KV).
Providing overvoltage and overheating diagnosis is also very useful for MCU to take appropriate actions.
Design a High Channel Density Digital Output Module
A typical discrete digital output design has a FET with a driving circuit driven by a microcontroller. Different methods can be used to configure FETs to drive microcontrollers.
The definition of a high-end load switch is that it is controlled by an external enable signal and connects or disconnects the power supply from a given load. Compared to low-end load switches, high-end switches provide current to the load, while low-end switches connect or disconnect the grounding connection of the load to obtain current from the load. Although they all use a single FET, the problem with low-end switches is that there may be a short circuit between the load and ground. High end switches protect the load and prevent short circuits to ground. However, the implementation cost of low-end switches is lower. Sometimes, the output driver is also configured as a push-pull switch, requiring two MOSFETs. Refer to Figure 4 below.
Integrated DO devices can integrate multiple DO channels into a single device. Due to the different FET configurations used for high-end, low-end, and push-pull switches, different devices can be used to achieve each type of output driver.
