Distributed Control System (DCS) Demo

General Description/Overview

The Distributed Control System reference design is a hardware and software platform for developing HART-enabled analog input and output modules (or nodes). DCS Modules are assembled from several existing reference designs:

  • EVAL-ADICUP3029 is the processor board that implements a MODBUS slave and controls the analog input / output boards.
  • EVAL-CN0416-ARDZ provides robust RS485 connectivity between one or more nodes and a host computer
  • EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ provides four group-isolated voltage inputs and four HART enabled current inputs.
  • EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ provides four group-isolated voltage or HART-enabled current outputs

The reference design provides software connectivity using the MODBUS protocol. Modbus is a ubiquitous, open, industrial communication protocol for which there are numerous open-source and commercial software libraries and utilities. It is a serial master-slave protocol where the master uses a set of standard commands to read and write registers on the slave device, and CRC error detection ensures data integrity. Reading a slave register can give information about the state and inputs of the slave and writing registers can change the state or outputs of the slave. The mapping of Modbus registers to application-specific functions is dependent on the end application, and the DCS reference design provides convenient access to all of the functionality of the analog input and output boards.

Several options for communicating with the hardware are provided or demonstrated:

  • A command-line interface, requiring only a terminal program on the host PC and no additional software, useful for initial board bringup and debug.
  • An open-source Modbus debug tool
  • A set of command-line utilities (Windows only)
  • Example applications in Python, using an open-source Modbus library

Demo Requirements

The following is a list of items needed in order to replicate this demo.

  • Hardware
    • EVAL-ADICUP3029
    • EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ and/or EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ, up to 4 boards total, in any configuration
    • EVAL-CN0416-ARDZ (not needed for direct USB connection to a single node)
    • Additional EVAL-CN0416-ARDZ, ADALM-UARTJTAG, and 2×5, 100mil cable such as AMP A3AAH-1006G or:
      • other RS485 host adapter
    • Mirco USB to USB cable
    • PC or Laptop with a USB port
  • Software
    • CrossCore Embedded Studio (2.8.0 or higher)
    • ADuCM302x DFP (3.2.0 or higher)

    • Serial Terminal Program (Required for running in CLI mode only)
      • Such as Putty or Tera Term
    • Python 3.6 (only required for modifying example applications)

Setting up the Hardware

Depending on the PLC/DCS Node configuration the power needs to be provided as follows:

  • If the PLC/DCS Node contain at least a CN0418 board, then the power will be provided through any CN0418 board (the jumper for P17 MUST to be placed for each board).
  • If the PLC/DCS Node contain only CN0414 boards, then the power can be provided through any CN0414 board.

Refer to the CN0414 and CN0418 user guides for detailed information on power requirements.


PLC / Single or multi-node DCS System Setup Configuration

Block diagrams for PLC / single-node DCS and multi-node DCS systems are shown below. These systems differ slightly in their allowable configurations:

  • A Single-node system can operate with either half-duplex or full-duplex RS-485. Termination must be enabled at both ends of the RS-485 line(s).
  • Modbus address conflict is not a concern in a single-node system (but the address must be known to the host.)
  • A Multi-node system can only operate in half-duplex mode.
  • In a Multi-node system, termination must be enabled at the ends of the RS-485 line, which is most often the host RS485 adapter and most distant node.
  • Each node in a multi-node system must be set to a different address.

RS485 Adapter Configuration

An ADALM-UARTJTAG board and a spare CN0416 can function as a convenient USB Virtual COM port to RS-485 adapter. Any RS485 adapter should work, if another is available. Isolated / Non-Isolated depends on the application and difference in ground potential between the host and nodes. Full-duplex operation is only supported in the PLC/single-node DCS configuration, as both TX and RX signals are driven continuously. Both single-node and multi-node configurations can use half-duplex.

ADALM-UARTJTAG Setup

The CP2103 device must be programmed as follows to control the DE signal on the CN0416. Configure Silicon Labs Xpress Configurator as follows to program the device:

IO2 configuration Mode: Push-Pull, Alternate Function: RS-485, Active High

Once the CP2103 is programmed, unplug from the host computer and connect P1 on the ADALM-UARTJTAG to P11 on the CN0416 with a 2×5-socket, 100mil cable such as AMP A3AAH-1006G. Be sure to connect with proper polarity - pin 1 on the ADALM-UARTJTAG must correspond to pin 1 on the CN0416.

CN0416 Setup

S2 position 2 1 3 4
S4 position NA NA 2 1

S7 position 2 2 NA NA


Node Configuration

Configuration for each node is similar, noting that each node must be set to a different address (via S1 on the CN0416) and the most distant node must have its termination enabled (via S6 or S7 on CN0416.)

Direct USB Configuration

The CLI program does not need the EVAL-CN0416-ARDZ board and is not affected by it's presence either. Furthermore, the PLC/ single-node DCS configuration can also operate with a direct connection, useful for testing out individual nodes quickly.

MODBUS Implementation

There are four types of standard registers in the MODBUS slave:

Coil/Register Number Data addresses Types Names
1 - 9999 0 to 270E Read-Write Discreet Output Coils
10001 - 19999 0 to 270E Read-Only Discreet Input Contacts
30001 - 39999 0 to 270E Read-Only Analog Input Registers
40001 - 49999 0 to 270E Read-Write Output Holding Registers

Each of these registers have a 16-bit address and a 16-bit value.

The Discreet Output Coils are registers that control a single output wire that has a binary value (high or low). Reading this register returns the output value of the bit and writing to it will update the coil with either low value, for writing 0, or high value, for writing anything else. The Discreet Input Contacts are registers that represent the value of a single input logic wire. The register can be only read and it is 0 if the wire is logic low and 0XFFFF if the wire is logic high. The DCS reference design does not have any functions that would map to Discreet Output Coils or Discreet Input Contacts. The Analog Input Registers represent an analog value, usually from an analog wire. This register can be only read and returns a 16-bit value. The Output Holding Registers are registers that control an analog output or a state of the slave. Reading this register returns the state of a process or an output and writing to it may change them or start a process.

Each register can be accessed using a function code:

Function code Action Table name
1 (0x01) Read Discreet Output Coils
5 (0x05) Write Single Discreet Output Coils
15 (0x0F) Write Multiple Discreet Output Coils
2 (0x02) Read Discreet Input Contacts
4 (0x04) Read Analog Input Registers
3 (0x03) Read Output Holding Registers
6 (0x06) Write Single Output Holding Registers
16 (0x10) Write Multiple Output Holding Registers

DCS reference design MODBUS Register Map

Because the DCS reference design may contain any combination of up to four input or output boards, as a MODBUS slave, it contains two type of MODBUS registers: common and board specific.

The common registers are 5 read-only registers and 2 read-write registers. In standard MODBUS terminology that translates to 5 analog input registers and 2 holding registers:

Name Address Type Description
Detected boards 0x0000 Analog Input Register Number of input and/or output boards present in the system.
First board data 0x0001 Analog Input Register First board type (bit 0), First board CS address (bits 1,2)
Second board data 0x0002 Analog Input Register Second board type (bit 0), Second board CS address (bits 1,2)
Third board data 0x0003 Analog Input Register Third board type (bit 0), Third board CS address (bits 1,2)
Fourth board data 0x0004 Analog Input Register Fourth board type (bit 0), Fourth board CS address (bits 1,2)
Update rate MSW 0x00FE Output Holding Register Most significant word of the update rate.
Update rate LSW 0x00FF Output Holding Register Least significant word of the update rate.

The board type bit is “0” for CN0414 and “1” for CN0418.

The update rate is stored as:

  Update rate MSW = ((Actual update rate * 10000) & 0xFFFF0000) >> 16;
  Update rate LSW = ((Actual update rate * 10000) & 0x0000FFFF) >> 0;

So the equation used to retrieve the update rate is:

Actual update rate = {(Update rate MSW * 65536) + Update rate LSW}/{10000}

Or in code form:

  Actual update rate = (((Update rate MSW << 16) & 0xFFFF0000) | Update rate LSW) / 10000;

The register map is configured dynamically after power-up. Adding a board to the system adds a number of board specific registers: 50 analog input registers and 7 output holding registers for each EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ, and 30 analog input registers and 10 output holding registers for each EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ.

As stated before, adding an EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ adds 57 registers to the device: 50 analog input registers and 7 output holding registers. The analog input registers are: 16 for ADC input values, 4 for ADC input open wire detection flags and 50 for HART receive buffer. The output holding registers are: 1 for ADC output coding, 1 for ADC filter options, 1 for ADC postfilter options, 1 for ADC output data rate options, 1 for ADC open wire detection enable, 1 for HART command zero and 1 for HART channel select. The output holding registers are: 16 for the channel registers, 4 for Open Wire Detection and 30 for the HART input buffer. Adding an EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ adds 40 registers: 30 analog input registers and 10 output holding registers. There are 30 HART input registers as analog input registers. The output holding registers are: 4 for channel ranges (one for each channel), 4 for the channels output (one for each channel), 1 for the HART active channel and 1 for the HART command zero.

Note that being a dynamic system the registers presented below do not have an unique address, but have an address offset that can be used to calculate their address. The function is:

Address = (ADC_CS_address << 12) + (MODBUS_slave_address << 8) + Address_offset;

Configuring the Software

The software can be set up to work in CLI debug mode or in MODBUS mode. To set this make sure the relevant define in the config.h file is uncommented and the other one is commented:

//#define CLI_INTEFACE
//#define MODBUS_INTERFACE

Communicating with the DCS reference design

There are two interfaces available for this application: a Command Line Interface (CLI) used mainly for debugging a single PLC node and a MODBUS interface used for PLC/DCS operation for single and multiple nodes.

The CLI is implemented through UART and must be connected to a computer via USB cable. A serial terminal program must run on the host PC to display data and control the application.

The MODBUS is connected through the EVAL-CN0416-ARDZ UART to RS485 adapter and must communicate with a MODBUS master on the RS485 line.

Command Line Interface

Serial Terminal Output

A serial terminal is an application that runs on a PC or laptop that is used to display data and interact with a connected device (including many of the Circuits from the Lab reference designs). The device's UART peripheral is most often connected to a UART to USB interface IC, which appears as a traditional COM port on the host PC/ laptop. (Traditionally, the device's UART port would have been connected to an RS-232 line driver / receiver and connected to the PC via a 9-pin or 25-pin serial port.) There are many open-source applications, and while there are many choices, typically we use one of the following:

Before continuing, please make sure you download and install one of the above programs.

There are several parameters on all serial terminal programs that must be setup properly in order for the PC and the connected device to communicate. Below are the common settings that must match on both the PC side and the connected UART device.

  1. COM Port - This is the physical connection made to your PC or Laptop, typically made through a USB cable but can be any serial communications cable. You can determine the COM port assigned to your device by visiting the device manager on your computer. Another method for identifying which COM port is associated with a USB-based device is to look at which COM ports are present before plugging in your device, then plug in your device, and look for a new COM port.
  2. Baud Rate - This is the speed at which data is being transferred from the connected device to your PC. These parameters must be the same on both devices or data will be corrupted. The default setting for most of the reference designs in 115200.
  3. Data Bits - The number of data bits per transfer. Typically UART transmits ASCII codes back to the serial port so by default this is almost always set to 8-Bits.
  4. Stop Bits - The number of “stop” conditions per transmission. This usually set to 1, but can be set to 2 for redundancy.
  5. Parity - Is a way to check for errors during the UART transmission. Unless otherwise specified, set parity to “none”.
  6. Flow Control - Is a way to ensure that data lose between fast and slow devices on the same UART bus are not lost during transmission. This is typically not implemented in a simple system, and unless otherwise specified, set to “none”.

In many instances there are other options that each of the different serial terminal applications provide, such as local line echo or local line editing, and features like this can be turned on or off depending on your preferences. This setup guide will not go over all the options of each tool, but just the minor features that will make it easier to read back data from the connected devices.

Example setup using Putty

  1. Plug in your connected device using a USB cable or other serial cable.
  2. Wait for the device driver of the connected device to install on your PC or Laptop.
  3. Open your device manager, and find out which COM port was assigned to your device.
  4. Open up your serial terminal program (Putty for this example)
  5. Click on the serial configuration tab or window, and input the settings to match the requirements of your connected device. The default baud rate for most of the reference designs is 115200. Make sure that is the selected baud rate as well.
  6. Ensure that local echo and line editing are enabled, so that you can see what you type and are able to correct mistakes. (Some devices may echo typed characters - if so, you will see each typed character twice. If this happens, turn off local echo.)
  7. Click on the open button, and as long as your connected device and serial terminal program are setup the same, than you should see data displaying.
Hint: If you see nothing in the serial terminal, try hitting the reset button on the embedded development board.

Available Commands

Typing help or h after initial calibration sequence will display the list of commands and their short versions. The CLI mode has a board command menu which is only used to select the board. Each board present in the system has it's own command set based on the type.

Bellow is the short command list for the board menu:

Command Description
h Display available commands.
bs Set the active board.
<board_no> = de ID of the board assigned by the program. It its displayed at the start of the program. Calling this command without an argument displays available boards again.

CLI main menu

The specific commands for each of the types of boards is described in they respective wiki pages:

Modbus Interface

The Modbus protocol is not human-readable; as such, a Modbus master program is required to interact with the design. QModMaster is a free and open-source implementation of a Modbus master GUI application. This program is useful for board bringup and debug, and during application development. QModMaster is avalable at QModMaster on SourceForge

QModMaster is used to demonstrate several basic register operations below.

Common analog input registers read
Reading these registers with 2 EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ and 2 EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ connected to the system it can be seen that 4 boards are found at address “0000”.  Common registers
The next address read “0001” indication that the board is a EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ and has address 0;
The second address reads “0003” indication that the board is EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ and has the address 1;
The third register read “0004” indicating that the board is EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ and has address 2;
And the last register reads “0006” for EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ and address 3.
ADC channels of one of the input boards with MODBUS
The second read shows the input channels data for the last input board found. This is done by reading 16 analog input registers fount at address 0x3105.  ADC MODBUS read
ADC change the output code
This is an example on how to change the ADC output code of the third board (input board with address 3) by writing the output holding register at the address 0x3100.

Project Structure

The application controls a dynamic system that can be physically different every time it is run. to do this it has two parts:

  1. The system initialization.
  2. The system main process.

After getting parameters of the system supplied by the user in code the program initializes the software modules common to all the boards: I2C, UART, SPI, microcontroller power, software UART and the AD5700 HART modem. If the MODBUS interface is used, the update timer for the input boards is also initialized in this stage as a common module. If, by comparison, the CLI is used, each input board present initializes its own version of the update timer driver.

After these initializations the system runs a board discovery routine. By using the presence of I2C EEPROM memory and testing the SPI configuration, all boards in the system are discovered and labeled as either CN0414 or CN0418. If the MODBUS interface is used, the system also scans for its MODBUS slave address and maps and initializes MODBUS registers.

After board discovery, if the CLI is used, no board is set as active and the system manager loads the main menu process. If the MODBUS is used, the system activates the first board it discovers.

CLI Process

If the CLI is used, no board is active after the initialization and the system stands by to receive commands. If the user sets one of the boards to be active, the program loads the commands and process specific to that board and starts sunning them until the application is stopped or the “exit” command is called.

MODBUS Interface Process

If the MODBUS interface is used the first board discovered is the active board. If it is a CN0414 the program runs its process until all channels are updated. If it is a CN0418 the program runs its process only once. After this the system deactivates the board and activates the next board discovered until all the boards have been active and updated. The system than cycles back from the beginning.

Meanwhile the system scans the MODBUS channel for commands and if one is found that is addressed to this node it executes it and sends back a response.

Board Specific Processes

The process and commands for each type of boards is described in the appropriate application page:

Example Applications and Utilities

User DCS programs running on the host will be highly application-specific, and written in any number of languages. This section presents several example applications and utilities written in Python that perform basic functions such as reading and writing analog voltages, detecting the configuration of a node, and changing the data rate of an analog input channel.

Utility functions in Python

The following utility functions are demonstrated using the single-node configuration described above. It may be connected to the host either directly via USB (no RS485 interface) or over a USB to RS485 bridge. Minimalmodbus is an open-source (Apache license) Modbus RTU and Modbus ASCII implementation for Python, and is used in these examples. Similar libraries exist for other languages.

Read common analog input registers basic example

For example, consider an instrument (slave) with Modbus RTU and address number 1 to which we are to communicate via a serial port with the name COM12. The instrument stores the actual configuration in registers 0 to 4. To read data from the instrument:

read_common_analog_input_registers.py
"""Read common analog input registers to determine PLC/DCS configuration."""
 
import minimalmodbus
 
# declare an instrument object with port name, slave address as input arguments
INSTRUMENT = minimalmodbus.Instrument('COM12', 1)
 
# read 5 registers starting from address 0 by using function code 4
COMMON_ANALOG_INPUT_REGISTERS = INSTRUMENT.read_registers(
    registeraddress=0, numberOfRegisters=5, functioncode=4)
 
# result a list with 5 elements in decimal format
print(COMMON_ANALOG_INPUT_REGISTERS)

[4, 1, 3, 4, 6] 

In this example, after we run the above piece of code it results that we have 4 boards connected. Two of this boards are EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ and other two are EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ. The EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ boards have address 0b10 and 0b11 while EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ boards have address 0b00 and 0b01.

Read analog input registers basic example

Next, if we want to read all analog input channels from one EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ we can use the following:

read_adc_analog_input_registers.py
"""Read analog input registers to determine ADC channels code."""
 
import minimalmodbus
 
# declare an instrument object with port name, slave address as input arguments
INSTRUMENT = minimalmodbus.Instrument('COM12', 1)
 
# read 16 registers starting from address 12549 by using function code 4
ADC_CHANNELS_CODES = INSTRUMENT.read_registers(
    registeraddress=12549, numberOfRegisters=16, functioncode=4)
 
# result a list with 16 elements in decimal format
print(ADC_CHANNELS_CODES)

[127, 65158, 127, 65514, 127, 65194, 127, 64995, 127, 65285, 127, 65244, 127, 65292, 127, 65278]

In this example, after we run the above piece of code it results a list of 16 elements in decimal format. First 8 values corespond to voltage channels and last to current channels.

Read and write one output holding register for EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ example

Next, if we want to change the output code of one EVAL-CN0414-ARDZ ADC to be unipolar instead of bipolar we can use the following:

set_adc_output_code.py
"""Read and write one output holding register to change ADC output code."""
 
import minimalmodbus
 
# declare an instrument object with port name, slave address as input arguments
INSTRUMENT = minimalmodbus.Instrument('COM12', 1)
 
# read a single register from address 12544 by using function code 3
INITIAL_ADC_OUTPUT_CODE = INSTRUMENT.read_register(
    registeraddress=12544, functioncode=3)
 
# result an integer
print(INITIAL_ADC_OUTPUT_CODE)
 
# wrie a single register from address 12544 by using function code 6
INSTRUMENT.write_register(registeraddress=12544, value=1, functioncode=6)
 
# read a single register from address 12544 by using function code 3
FINAL_ADC_OUTPUT_CODE = INSTRUMENT.read_register(
    registeraddress=12544, functioncode=3)
 
# result an integer
print(FINAL_ADC_OUTPUT_CODE)

0
1

In this example, after we run the above piece of code it results an integer which coresponds to ADC coding format. The default value 0, indicate that the ADC is set to bipolar coding format, while a value of 1 will indicate an unipolar coding format.

Read and write one output holding register for EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ example

Next, if we want to change the output code of one EVAL-CN0418-ARDZ DAC channel we can use the following:

set_dac_output_voltage.py
"""Read and write one output holding register to change DAC channel voltage."""
 
import minimalmodbus
 
# declare an instrument object with port name, slave address as input arguments
INSTRUMENT = minimalmodbus.Instrument('COM12', 1)
 
# read a single register from address 4356 by using function code 3
INITIAL_DAC_CHANNEL_1_CODE = INSTRUMENT.read_register(
    registeraddress=4356, functioncode=3)
 
# result an integer
print(INITIAL_DAC_CHANNEL_1_CODE)
 
# wrie a single register from address 4356 by using function code 6
INSTRUMENT.write_register(registeraddress=4356, value=65535, functioncode=6)
 
# read a single register from address 4356 by using function code 3
FINAL_DAC_CHANNEL_1_CODE = INSTRUMENT.read_register(
    registeraddress=4356, functioncode=3)
 
# result an integer
print(FINAL_DAC_CHANNEL_1_CODE)

0
65535

In this example, after we run the above piece of code it results an integer which coresponds to DAC channel 1 output code. Depending on channel configuration this output code will corespond to a voltage or a current value. In this example the DAC channel output code is by default 0V because the default channel range is set to 0V to 5V. The 65535 value will corespond in this case to a 5V output.

Change or check the system registers example

Next, if we want to check or change the system registers we can run the following script from the attached archive.

read_or_write_registers.zip

Depending on the system configuration, one or more DCS nodes will be detected. After the user selects a valid DCS node, a menu will appear which contain all available system options. Now, depending on the node configuration, not all option will be valid, even if they are shown. For example, if a DCS node doesn't contain CN0414 analog input board(s), any option which refers to CN0414 will do nothing.

Example Applications in Python

The following section presents several example top-level DCS applications. Like the utilities, these are based on Minimalmodbus.

Simple DCS control

This application provides a simple way to control a DCS system and also to detect HART devices by using the HART protocol.

The HART protocol is proprietary, customers implementing a full HART stack should refer to https://fieldcommgroup.org This reference design provides a basic implementation of “command zero” that can be used to verify connectivity with HART instruments. CN0267 is a Complete 4 mA to 20 mA Loop Powered Field Instrument with HART Interface that can be used to test the DCS HART functionality. This application allows to:

  • detect sistem configuration;
  • configure and read ADC channels;
  • configure and write DAC channels;
  • configure HART modems and send HART command zero.
