Section 2 ARG600 overview

2.1 Overview

Wireless Gateway ARG600 provides wireless monitoring and control of field devices via

cellular network from a central site or a control center. The devices offer industrial quality

connectivity for the TCP/IP and serial port based protocols. Wireless Gateway ARG600

exhibits integrated communication capability and seamless integration to the SCADA

systems.

Wireless Gateway ARG600 is a member of ABB’s Arctic product family and part of its

600 Wireless Gateway product series.

By using Wireless Gateway ARG600, Ethernet and serial devices can be attached to a

TCP/IP based control system. With Wireless Gateway ARG600, conventional

IEC60870-101 devices can be attached to a modern TCP/IP based IEC 60870-5-104

control system. This is made possible by the protocol conversion from IEC 60870-5-101

to IEC 60870-104. ARG600 also supports Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP protocol

conversion.DNP3 serial devices can be attached to a DNP3 TCP SCADA system. In this

case, the DNP3 protocol is transferred over TCP/IP communication (transparent serial

gateway mode).

Wireless Gateway ARG600 can be utilized for various industrial and utility applications

to maximize the benefits.

• Industrial grade TCP/IP router: several serial and TCP/IP based field devices can be

integrated into a central supervisory and control system (SCADA)

• Integrated protocol conversion enables connecting the legacy serial-based devices

into a TCP/IP-based supervisory control system (SCADA)

• Ideal for retrofitting by allowing the user to extend the life cycle of existing serial-

based substation devices

• Remote access to field devices means less site visits for operations and maintenance

• Optimizing the cost of communication by using public cellular networks

• Possibility to upgrade from the existing legacy's private radio system to a higher

bandwidth cellular network based solution. This enables to fully maximize the usage

of the existing application. For example, the video surveillance of traffic can now be

integrated into the same system.

Pin 2 Negative (-)

The unit is protected against reversed polarity in specified voltage range.

Power switch

The power switch enables or disables the operation of the device.

Console enable switch

The console enable switch enables or disables console access. When it is disabled, both

serial ports may be used as an application serial port. When the switch is in the right

position, RS1 is in serial port mode and when in the left position, RS1 is in console mode.

DIP switches

The DIP switches select an application port (RS2) mode and settings (RS-232 or RS-485).

By default, all DIP switches are set to the 0 position (RS-232 mode). DIP switches 2...4

apply only when DIP switch 1 is set to differential mode (RS-485/RS-422).

If biasing and/or termination is required for the RS-485 half-duplex (2-

wire) mode, enable RS-422 biasing/termination with DIP switches and

manually connect pins 2-7 and 3-8 together at the application port (RS-2).

Ethernet connector

The device has an RJ-45 connector for 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection. The maximum

length of the Ethernet cable is 100 m.

2.2.2 Back panel

The device has an antenna connector and a slot for a SIM card on the back panel.
