WEB BROWSER A Static IP Address is as the name implies—static, and represents a unique
fixed IP Address that is generally assigned by your service provider or
system administrator. The default mode static IP address assigned to this
Network Configuration module is 128.1.1.100 (refer to product side label).
NOTE: In order to network your PC with an Acromag module, you may have
to consult with your network administrator and either temporarily change
your TCP/IP configuration (see TCP/IP Properties of Network Configuration
in Windows), or create a separate private network using a second network
adapter installed in your PC (recommended). The necessary steps will vary
with your operating system. Refer to Acromag Application Note 8500-734 to
help accomplish this (located on the CDROM shipped with your module or
via download from our web site at www.acromag.com).

host portion of the address. The unique subnet to which an IP address
refers to is recovered by performing a bitwise AND operation between the IP
address and the mask itself, with the result being the sub-network address.
Gateway refers to the IP Address of the gateway, if your local area network
happens to be isolated by a gateway. If a gateway is not present, then this
field should contain an unused address within the host subnet address
range. Typically, it is assigned the first host address in the subnet.
The Host Name is the name to be assigned to this host if its address
happens to be assigned dynamically using DHCP.
The Active IP Address refers to the current IP Address being used by this
host, as opposed to any new assignments being made via this page.
The MAC Address refers to the Media Access Control Address that
uniquely identifies the hardware of this device. This is a unique fixed
address assigned to this module at the factory. In IEEE 802 networks, the
Data Link Control (DLC) layer of the OSI Reference Model is divided into two
sublayers: the Logical Link Control (LLC) layer, and the Media Access
Control (MAC) layer. The MAC layer interfaces directly with the network
media (each different type of network media requires a different MAC layer).
By default, the module is setup to use Static IP Addressing and a Static IP
Address of 128.1.1.100. You can optionally choose to have the IP address
assigned dynamically via DHCP/BOOTP or DHCP/BOOTP w/Fallbacks.
This will also require that you specify a valid Host Name. Note that
DHCP/BOOTP w/Fallback will revert to the static IP address if your DHCP or
BOOTP server cannot be found at the address specified.

In general, BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) refers to an internet protocol that WEB BROWSER
enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP address, the address of
a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot
the machine. This enables the workstation or device server to boot without Network Configuration
requiring a hard or floppy disk drive. BOOTP works similar to DHCP, but is
usually found in older systems. This protocol is defined by RFC 951.

Module?
If you have carefully followed this procedure and you still cannot browse your
module, you may have the web browser of your laptop or PC setup to use a
proxy server when browsing the web. If you are using Internet Explorer,
Refer to the “Tools” pulldown menu, select “Internet options…”, click the
“Connections” tab, then click the “LAN Settings” button. Locate the Proxy
server information and uncheck the box next to the statement “Use a proxy
server for your LAN”. Then click [OK] to return to the “Connections” screen,
and click [OK] again to save your settings.
You should now be able to use Internet Explorer to browse the module as
required. However, to later restore your PC’s connection to your company
network, you may have to re-enable the use of a proxy server for your LAN.
Getting Out Of Trouble There is no built-in error detection to prevent you from writing invalid values
to a configuration register. As such, if you inadvertently write an invalid value
to an internal register, you could cause the module to become inoperable
under certain conditions. If this happens, in order to regain control of the
module, the module can either be re-downloaded at the factory, or you can
try restoring the module to its initial configuration by following this procedure:
So, your module’s “gone wild”, Procedure For Restoring any 9xxEN Module to its Initial Configuration

2. While continuing to hold the toggle switch in the default position, apply
power to the module.
3. After a few seconds, the Status LED will begin to blink quickly and you
can release the default switch at this point. The module will continue to
boot itself as it normally does. That is, the green RUN LED will blink for
1-10 seconds as the unit acquires its address, then remain ON for
normal operation.
4. If the STATUS LED fails to blink rapidly after a few seconds and the
RUN LED just blinks for a few moments as it normally does, then
reinitializing the module has failed and you should try it again. This
time, make sure that the DFT switch is completely depressed and held
while powering the unit. Also make sure that you are pressing the DFT
toggle in the DFT direction (left), rather than the RST direction (right).

HOW IT WORKS These input modules will interface with up to twelve analog input channels of
DC current or DC voltage according to the model number, and provide an
isolated 10/100 Ethernet interface for configuration, monitoring, and control
of the input module. The 963EN will also condition AC current input signals
when used with an optional AC current sensor (Acromag Model 5020-350).
Input channels are arranged in three groups (ports) of four inputs, which are
driven to separate channels of the A/D converter. Because each port feeds
a different A/D channel, each channel of the port must have the same input
range. However, different ports may use different input ranges. Current
inputs sink into a precision 50Ω resistor (963EN). Voltage inputs feed
precision 10:1 resistive dividers (964EN). A multiplexer is used to connect
the voltage from each channel of a port to a channel of the A/D converter
(one A/D channel per port). The A/D converter then applies gain to the
signal, converts the analog signal to digital, and then digitally filters the
signal. The digitized signal is then transmitted serially to the microcontroller.
The microcontroller completes the transfer function according to the input
type and range per its embedded program. Configuration and calibration
parameters are stored in non-volatile memory integrated within the
microcontroller. The I/O terminals and the Ethernet port terminals also
include transient suppression. A dedicated Ethernet controller handles
Ethernet communication. A wide input switching regulator (isolated flyback)
provides isolated power to the I/O circuits and the Ethernet controller. Refer
to the simplified schematic shown below to help gain a better understanding
of the circuit.

TCP/IP refers to Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol. ABOUT MODBUS
TCP/IP allows blocks of binary data to be exchanged between computers.
TCP/IP is everywhere and is the foundation for the World Wide Web. The TCP/IP
primary function of TCP is to ensure that all packets of data are received
correctly. IP makes sure that messages are correctly addressed and routed.
Note that the TCP/IP combination does not define what the data means or
how the data is to be interpreted, it is merely a transport protocol.
You can find more information
Modbus is an application protocol. It defines rules for organizing and on Modbus TCP/IP by visiting
interpreting data and is essentially a messaging structure that is independent our web site and down-loading
of the underlying physical layer. It is freely available and accessible to whitepaper 8500-765,
anyone, easy to understand, and widely supported by many manufacturers. Introduction To Modbus
TCP/IP.
Modbus TCP/IP uses TCP/IP and Ethernet to carry the data of the Modbus
message structure between devices. That is, Modbus TCP/IP combines a
physical network (Ethernet), with a networking standard (TCP/IP), and a
standard method of representing data (Modbus). In effect, a Modbus
TCP/IP message is simply a Modbus communication encapsulated in an
Ethernet TCP/IP wrapper.
In practice, Modbus TCP embeds a Modbus data frame into a TCP frame,
sans the Modbus checksum, as shown in the following diagram. The
Modbus checksum is not used, as the standard ethernet TCP/IP link layer
checksum methods are instead used to guaranty data integrity.

Note that the Modbus address field is referred to as the Unit Identifier in
Modbus TCP. In a typical slave application, the Unit ID is ignored and just
echoed back in the response.
A host is any device on any network. On TCP/IP networks, each host has IP Addressing
one or more unique IP addresses. This module connected to an ethernet
network is a host.

Subnets are further broken down into three size classes based on the 4
octets that make up the IP address. A Class A subnet is any subnet that
shares the first octet of the IP address. The remaining 3 octets of a Class A
subnet will define up to 16,777,214 possible IP addresses (224 – 2). A Class
B subnet shares the first two octets of an IP address (providing 216 – 2, or
65534 possible IP addresses). Class C subnets share the first 3 octets of an
IP address, giving 254 possible IP addresses. Recall that the first and last
IP addresses are always used as a network number and broadcast address
respectively, and this is why we subtract 2 from the total possible unique
addresses that are defined via the remaining octet(s).
TIP: the first node (0), node For our example, the default IP address of this module is 128.1.1.100. If we
10, and the last node (255 for assume that this is a Class C network address (based on the default Class
our example) are typically C subnet mask of 255.255.255.0), then the first three numbers represent this
reserved for servers and may Class C network at address 128.1.1.0, the last number identifies a unique
yield poor results if used. host/node address on this network (node 100 at address 128.1.1.100).
For our Example, if we wish to further divide this network into 14 subnets,
then the first 4 bits of the host address will be required to identify the
subnetwork (0110), then we would use “11111111.11111111.11111111.
11110000” as our subnet mask. This would effectively subdivide our Class
C network into 14 subnetworks of up to 14 possible nodes each.

DHCP refers to Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and is a method used Dynamic Host
to dynamically assign temporary numeric IP addresses as required. A
Configuration Protocol
DHCP server maintains a pool of shared IP addresses which are recycled.
When a DHCP device wants to use a TCP/IP application, it must request an (DHCP)
IP address from the DHCP server. The DHCP server will check the shared
supply, and if all addresses are in use, the server will send a busy signal to
the client which tells it to try again later. Static addresses will ensure a
connection every time, but dynamic addresses do not.
DNS refers to the Domain Name System or Domain Name Server and refers Domain Name System
to the system used to associate an alphanumeric character string with a
(DNS)
numeric IP address. The DNS is actually a distributed database of domain
names and corresponding IP addresses. These servers contain information
on some segment of the domain name space and make this information
available to clients called resolvers. For example, the DNS allows us to use
“Acromag.com” as an IP address rather than a complicated number string.
Modbus registers are organized into reference types identified by the leading MODBUS
number of the reference address:

1 or 0 value assigned to an individual bit in a 16-bit data word. This is
sixteen 0x or 1x references per data word. With respect to mapping,
the LSB of the word maps to the lowest numbered channel of a group
and channel numbers increase sequentially as you move towards the
MSB. Unused bit positions are set to zero.
All I/O values are accessed via the 16-bit Input or Holding Registers given in
the Register Map. Input registers contain read-only information. For
example, the current input value read from a channel, or the states of a
group of digital inputs. Holding registers contain read/write information that
may be configuration data or output data. For example, the high limit value
of an alarm operating at an input, or an output value for an output channel.
Each module has a default factory configuration as noted in the Register Functions
SPECIFICATIONS section. Your application will likely differ from the default
configuration and the module will need to be reconfigured. You may
reconfigure this module by issuing the appropriate Modbus functions to
Register Map registers, as required by your application. You may also use a
standard web browser to access the built-in web pages of the module to
perform basic operations.

Register Functions Below is a subset of standard Modbus functions that are supported by this
module along with the reference register addresses that the function
operates on. Use these functions to access these registers as outlined in
the Register Map for sending and retrieving data.
Register Mirroring For your convenience, 9xxEN Ethernet modules mirror the contents and
operation of registers 0xxxx, 1xxxx, & 3xxxx (as applicable) into holding
register space (4xxxx) for systems and controllers that cannot directly
access registers 0xxxx, 1xxxx, & 3xxxx.
All Modbus registers of this model can now be written to, or read from, using
either the standard methods described in the Modbus specification, or
through mapping (mirroring) to the Holding Registers. The registers are
mapped as follows and specifics follow the mapping:

___________________________________________________________________ 23
0xxxx Coil Registers are mapped to 42xxx Holding Registers Register Mirroring
1xxxx Input Status Registers are mapped to 41xxx Holding Registers
3xxxx Input Registers are mapped to 43xxx Holding Registers
For 3xxxx Input Registers, the format of the registers are identical and you
only need to offset your address by 43000. For example: if you want to read
Input Register 1 through the Holding Registers, you would use the “Read
Holding Registers” function with an address of 43001.
For the 1xxxx Input Status Registers (where supported), the return data is
reformatted to match the Holding Register format. For example: if you
request the Input Status for 12 digital inputs, instead of getting 2 bytes
returned with the first 12 bits representing the 12 digital inputs, you will get
12 separate words, each set to either 0000H (OFF), or FFFFH (ON).
For the 0xxxx Coil Registers (where supported), reads are handled in the
same way as the 1xxxx Input Status Registers. You can also write to the coil
registers by using the “Preset Single Register” function with an address
offset of 42000. Setting the data to 0000H will turn the coil OFF, while setting
the data to FF00H will turn the coil ON. Writing to multiple coils is not
supported via register mirroring, you must use the “Write Multiple Coils”
function for that.
Note that with respect to Acromag 9xxMB Modbus RTU modules, only 3xxxx
Input Registers are mirrored into 4xxxx space, not Coil or Input Status
registers as noted here for 9xxEN models.
I/O values for Series 900EN modules are represented by the following Data Types
simple data types for temperature, percentage, and discrete on/off.

32 BusWorks® 963/964EN Module User’s Manual Modbus TCP/IP Analog Input
__________________________________________________________________
SPECIFICATIONS These DIN-rail mount, industrial ethernet, analog input modules include
twelve analog input channels for DC current (963EN), or DC voltage
(964EN), and provide an isolated 10/100BaseT Ethernet port for monitoring
and control. Units are DC-powered and include reverse polarity protection.
Analog inputs (as a group), network, and power are isolated from each
other. Input channels share common. Non-volatile reprogrammable
memory in the module stores configuration and calibration information.
Model Numbers The BusWorks model prefix “900” denotes the Series 900 network I/O
family. The “EN” suffix denotes EtherNet. Select 963EN for current input,
963EN-4012 (Current) and 964EN for voltage input. The four digit suffix of this model number
964EN-4012 (Voltage)
represents the following options, respectively: “4” = Ethernet; “0” = Default;
“12” = 12 Channels.
Analog Inputs Twelve analog input channels with a common (RTN) connection for DC
current or DC voltage applications only. AC current inputs can be
accommodated when the 963EN is used with an optional AC current sensor
(Acromag Model 5020-350). Units must be wired and configured for the
intended input type and range (see Connections Section for details). The
unit can accept one of several input ranges as described below.
The output wires of this sensor are polarized with red as (+) plus and
black as (-) minus. Normally these output wires are attached to one
end of a user supplied cable, while the other end connects to the
963EN’s process current input terminals.

The minimum cable required for full operation of this device is Category 5. ACCESSORY
The term “Category” refers to classifications of UTP (Unshielded Twisted
Pair) cables. There are 3 main categories of cable – Category 3, Category CABLES
4, and Category 5. The differences in classification is found in their electrical
performance and this is documented in the TIA/EIA 568A standard.
Category 5 cable includes four twisted wire pairs at eight twists per foot.
There are two types of cable conductors: solid cable and stranded cable.
Stranded cables are more flexible than solid cables. But since attenuation is
higher for stranded cables than solid conductor cables, these are generally
reserved for short runs and patch applications less than 6 meters.
Currently there are two types of cable shielding employed in Category 5 STP
cable: single-shielded cable and double-shielded cable. Both of these
cables have the same core and jacket as UTP cables, but also include a thin
foil outer shield that covers all four twisted-wire pairs. Some variations will
also include a drain wire that encircles the outer foil. The double-shielded
version adds an outer wire screen that wraps around the foil shield and also
functions as a drain wire. The drain wire or wire screen typically makes
contact at each end of the cable with the metal shield around special RJ45
plug connectors. The metal shield of these connectors then makes contact
with the metal shield of shielded RJ45 sockets. The socket shield may
make direct contact with earth ground, or it may be capacitively coupled to
earth ground.
In the Acromag 9xxEN modules, this shield contacts earth ground via a high
voltage capacitor and transient voltage suppressor. In addition to minimizing
radio frequency and electromagnetic interference, this arrangement also has
the added benefit of enhanced protection from damage due to ESD (Electro-
Static Discharge).

Patch Cable & Acromag offers the following cable accessories for use with this module:
Crossover Cable
Cable Model 5035-355 – Yellow, 3 foot long, single-shielded Category 5e
STP patch cable with drain wire and an RJ45 plug at both ends. Use this
cable to connect any Acromag 9xxEN I/O module to the 900EN-S005 switch.
Cable Model 5035-360 – Green, 5 foot long, single-shielded Category 5e
STP crossover cable with drain wire and an RJ45 plug at both ends. This
cable performs the Ethernet crossover function and is used to connect a PC
directly to an Acromag Series 9xxEN I/O module.
Note that you do not need to use a crossover cable to connect your PC to
this module if the Acromag 900EN-S005 switch is used between the PC and
module, as the switch is auto-crossing. However, you must use a crossover
cable when directly connecting your PC to a Series 9xxEN I/O Module
without the use of an auto-crossing switch or hub.
You may obtain cable in other lengths and colors as required for your
application from other vendors. For example, shielded CAT-5e cable is
available from the following vendors:
For very noisy environments or in the presence of strong electrical fields, you
can obtain double-shielded CAT-5e cable and shielded RJ45 plugs from the
following vendors:
