controllers to the internet
When Saia PCD controllers are connected directly to the internet, they are also
a potential target of cyber attacks. For secure operation, appropriate protective
measuresmustalwaysbetaken.

In Error cases the controller is able to reset the modem
toreinitializeaconnection.
For preventive reasons this can be done once a day.

This FBox should only be place if the modem 18 func-
tions are used.
Chose the right PCD3.WAC modem type and select

To execute PPP and modem 18 functions one after the
other, PPP must be selected as Standby mode.

.
Any shielding of analogue signals or communication cables should also be brought to
the same earth potential, either via a Minus terminal or via the earthing bar.
All Minus connections are linked internally. For problem-free operation, these
connectionsshouldbereinforcedexternallywithshortwiresof1.5mm

2.2.2 ISDN modem

orISDNtelephone.ThisdeviceiscalledaNetworkTerminationforISDNBasicRate
Access(NTBA)(inSwitzerland,NT2ab).ItispossibletoconnectmultipleISDNde-
vices and 2 analogue devices to this adapter. ISDN connections offer approximately
twicethespeedofanaloguepoint-to-pointconnections.Withanaloguepoint-to-point
connections,youarelimitedtoaspeedof33600bit/s,whileISDNpoint-to-pointcon-
nectionsusingaBchannelcanreachaspeedof64kBit/s.Inprinciple,thetwoexist-
ing B channels can be combined to 128 kBit/s. If you have to transmit larger volumes
of data, ISDN is an advantage.

For connections to the Internet provider’s digital modems, there is only a small differ-
enceinspeedbetweenanalogue(56kBit/s)andISDNconnections(64kBit/s).The
advantages of ISDN are particularly the fast connection setup and better quality.

2.2.3 WACwithEthernetport
Anotheralternativewithwiredconnectionsisabroadbandline,e.g.withxDSL.With
this technology, the existing transfer capacity of normal copper cable trunk lines is
muchbetterutilised.ThesearealwaysInternetconnections.ByconnectinganxDSL
router to the Ethernet port of a WAC, you can achieve much higher transfer rates
thanwithanalogueorISDNmodems.Asyouonlyhavetopayaxedamountper
month,communicationcostsareeasiertocalculate.AdrawbackofxDSLthatisoften
overlooked is that, in contrast to a modem connection, you no longer have a pass-
word-protectedprivatecommunicationchannelasstandard.Youhavetocreatesuch
channelsyourselfusingVPNs(VirtualPrivateNetworks).Thisgenerallyrequiresad-

ThefollowingtypesinthePCD3WideAreaControllerseries:

ThePCD3WACcanusethefollowingservicesprovidedbyGSMmobilenetwork
providers:
SMS Short Message Service
CSD CircuitSwitchedData
GPRS General Packet Radio Service
In order to operate the PCD3.M2330A4T5 and PCD3.M2230A4T5 devices, you need
aSIMcardfromamobilenetworkprovider.Dependingonthecommunicationservice
thatyouwanttouse,youshouldaskfortheappropriatesubscriptionfromthepro-
vider. There are subscriptions that support SMS, CSD and GPRS. Voice may also
besupported,butthereisnobenetinthis,asitisnotsupportedbytheWAC.There
are subscriptions that only support CSD and SMS, and others that only support SMS.
Ifyoulimityourselftoafewservices,thepriceofthesubscriptionshouldbequite
affordable.Manyoperatorsofferattractiveframeworkcontractsforsufcientlyhigh
volumes.
2.4.2 DifferencebetweenGSM(CSD)andGPRS(PSD)
WithCSD(CircuitSwitchedDataService)a“channel”isestablishedtemporarily.The
baud rate over this channel is 9600 baud. By using other coding schemes and bun-
dlingchannels(high-speedCSD,orHSCSD),ahigherbaudratecanbeprovidedfor
datacommunication.Thismustbesupportedbythehardwareandtheoperator.A
channelisestablishedfromAtoB.Thetwodevicesareaddressedbytheirtelephone
numbers,asisusualwithxedlinecommunication.
Thecostsarecalculatedpertimeunit;theexactformulamayvaryaccordingtothe
operator. For example, there may be a cost element per call + a time element in sec-
ondsorminutes(rounded).
WithPSD(PacketSwitchedDataService),IPpacketsaretransmitted.
GSMnetworkscanofferthefollowingPSDservices:GPRSandEDGE.Notall
providers have expanded their infrastructure to include EDGE. No transparent data
channelsareestablishedaswithCSD.Itisnotpossiblesimplytoexchangedata
betweentwoterminals.
Operators usually bill the communication costs for PSD by data volume and not by
timeaswithCSD.
WithGPRStransmission,youarenotallocatedaconstantbandwidthaswithCSD
communication.Acertainnumberofchannelsineachwirelesscellarereservedfor
thewholeIPpackettrafctoandfromallsigned-onGPRSterminals.Themorede-
vicesarecommunicatingviathesamewirelesscell,thesmallerthebandwidthavail-
able to any individual device.
Foroperators,voicecommunicationalwayshasthehighestpriorityforcommercial
reasons. The GSM system has not been optimised for data transfer.
