4. About Anybus Communicator

4.1. Serial Protocol Communicaon

4.1.1. Serial Protocol Types

The gateway features three disnct modes of operaon for the subnetwork communicaon, called Modbus RTU,

Custom Request/Response and Custom Produce/Consume.

Figure 1. Communicaon, Serial protocol

Modbus RTU

By default the Communicator uses the Modbus RTU serial protocol.

The Communicator uses Modbus transacons dened by the Modbus standard.

The Communicator acts as a client on the subnetwork, and the serial communicaon takes place in a request/

response fashion.

The nodes on the network are not permied to issue messages unless they have been addressed by the

Communicator rst.

Custom Request/Response

In this mode, you can dene your own serial transacons to handle a wide range of custom serial protocols.

The Communicator acts as a generic serial client on the subnetwork.

The serial communicaon takes place in a request/response fashion.

Custom Produce/Consume

In this mode, you can dene your own serial transacons to handle a wide range of custom serial protocols.

The Communicator may consume and/or produce messages on the subnetwork.

There is no client-server relaonship between the nodes on the network, messages are spontaneously produced

or consumed when data is available.

Anybus® Communicator™ - PROFINET to Modbus RTU/Serial About Anybus Communicator

Page 6 of 140 SCM-1202-176 Version 1.11

4.1.2. Serial Protocol Building Blocks

The following building blocks are used to describe the subnetwork communicaon.

Node

Figure 2. Nodes on a subnetwork

A node represents a single device on the subnetwork.

Each node can be associated with a number of transacons.

Nodes and Transacons

Figure 3. Node with Transacons

Transacons are based on standard Modbus RTU transacons (Modbus RTU serial protocol) or transacons

templates (Custom Request/Response or Produce/Consume serial protocol) and dene the data to be sent or

received.

Each transacon has a number of parameters that need to be congured to dene how data is to be sent /

received.

Serial Protocol Communicaon Anybus® Communicator™ - PROFINET to Modbus RTU/Serial

SCM-1202-176 Version 1.11 Page 7 of 140

Frame Fields

The Frame editor is used to design custom transacon templates.

The Frame editor with Frame elds is available when either the Custom Request/Response or Custom Produce/

Consume serial protocol is enabled.

Figure 4. Frame editor

Frame elds are low level enes used to compose transacons.

A frame object can represent a:

•xed value, a constant

• range of values, limit objects

• block of data or a calculated checksum

Anybus® Communicator™ - PROFINET to Modbus RTU/Serial Serial Protocol Communicaon

Page 8 of 140 SCM-1202-176 Version 1.11

Transacon Templates

The Transacon templates are available when either the Custom Request/Response or Custom Produce/

Consume serial protocol is enabled.

Figure 5. Frame editor, Request and Response

A transacon represents a complete serial telegram, and consists of a number of frame elds.

Each frame eld is associated with a set of parameters controlling what is transmied on the subnetwork.

The transacon templates are stored in the Communicator and can be reused mulple mes.

Example 1. Common Read Transacon

If you have a common read transacon. Then you can create one single transacon template for the read

transacon and reuse it mulple mes mes on your node(s).

If you have a funcon code in your protocol similar to a standard Modbus RTU transacon. Then you can create

a transacon template based on the Modbus RTU transacon for the read operaon. When you reuse the

template on your node(s), you only have to change the funcon code each me it is used.

SCM-1202-176 Version 1.11 Page 9 of 140

4.2. How the Communicaon Works

The Communicator enables communicaon, data exchange, between one or more server devices connected to a

serial subnetwork and a client device connected to a high level network.

Figure 6. Process data trac overview

For example:

• The client device can be a PLC controller or a PC.

• A server devices can be a sensor, scanner, industrial robot or snier.

The Communicator main task is to cyclically send the transacons that the server(s) are congured to execute, in

order to request and transfer process data.

Request Process Data

Figure 7. Process data trac from nodes to client

Request process data from the serial subnetwork nodes, specied in the Communicator conguraon, and make

the process data available on the server interface and for the high level network client device.

Transfer Process Data

4.3. How the Data Exchange Works

Figure 9. The Communicator internal memory areas

The data exchanged between the Communicator and the serial subnetwork and the high level network resides in

the Communicator internal memory buer.

To exchange data with the serial subnetwork, the high level network reads and writes data to the Communicator

internal memory buer.

The same memory locaons are exchanged on the serial subnetwork.

The memory locaons are specied when conguring the Communicator using the Communicator built-in web

interface.

Input Data

The Input data area is read by the high level network.

Output Data

The Output data area is read/wrien by the high level network.

4.4. Data Integrity

A snapshot of the process data buer between the Client and the server interface is used during the operaon of

execung all the transacons within one cycle.

When the cycle is completed, the process data available on the server interface is updated and a new snapshot is

created for the next cycle.

5.2. DIN Rail Mounng

IMPORTANT

The equipment must be electrically grounded through the DIN rail for EMC compliance. Make sure

that the equipment is correctly mounted on the rail and that the rail is properly grounded.

Figure 11. Aach the Communicator on the DIN rail

To aach the Communicator on the DIN rail:

1. Insert the upper end of the DIN rail clip into the DIN rail.

2. Push the boom of the DIN rail clip into the DIN rail.
