Introduction

Sepam protection units have an optional communication function. This manual is related to Sepam: b series 10 b series 20 b series 40 (including the Sepam series 48, and the applications S5x and T5x) b series 60 b series 80 b 2000 These Sepam units may be connected to any 2-wire or 4-wire RS 485 communication network and exchange all the information necessary for centralized control of the electrical installation via a supervisory system, using Modbus master/ slave protocol. To reduce cabling errors, the cause of most problems encountered in the implementation of communication networks, and limit those networks sensitivity to disturbances relating to the environment, a group of accessories is available to make it easier to connect Sepam units to an RS 485 network. This manual presents: b general characteristics of RS 485 networks b accessories for connecting Sepam units to an RS 485 network b how to associate them, illustrated by a few examples. Sepam series 20, series 40, series 60, series 80 and Sepam 2000 communication architecture complies with the OSI (Open Systems Interconnect) model proposed by the International Standardization Organization (ISO). The physical transmission of data signals complies with the EIA RS 485 standard (differential voltage transmission mode). An RS 485 network may be cabled according to two different principles: b 2-wire RS 485 network b 4-wire RS 485 network.

Definition of data signals

maximum operating range

The EIA-485 standard (commonly known as RS 485) defines the electrical characteristics of a serial communication. This takes place on an electrical line, called the bus, which in practice consists of a twisted pair. Data is transmitted by voltage changes in differential mode. The resulting voltage is usually around 5 V but this value can vary between 400 mV and 12 V depending on the startup conditions. The voltage delivered by a loaded driver must not be less than +/- 1.5 V.

The resulting differential voltage is used to construct the binary signals 1 or 0. The transmitter line A will be negative with respect to line B for a binary 1, MARK or OFF state. The transmitter line A will be positive with respect to line B for a binary 0, SPACE or ON state.

Nature of real-life signals

In real-life conditions, the signals are distorted because the bus is not a perfect component. The choke and the lineic capacitance of the cable used slow down the edges and distort the dwell steps. In order to conserve the integrity of these signals it is essential to observe a few setup rules as described below.

Choosing a topology

DE81091

Setting up RS 485 communication requires a bus-type topology. Loop or ring-type topologies are prohibited.

Loop or ring-type topology must be avoided as it does not allow bus impedance matching: the loop has no ends and the star causes as many reflections as it has branches. SeeBus matching, page 10.

Structure of the bus

Physical medium

The bus consists of a cable containing between 1 and 3 pairs of shielded twisted conductors. 1 or 2 pairs are used to transmit data, depending on whether a 2-wire or 4-wire diagram is used. In the case of Sepam series 20, series 40, series 60 and series 80, a third pair may be needed to transport the power supply for the communication interfaces (distributed power supply). In addition to carrying the differential signal, use of a shielded twisted pair can increase immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMC). Indeed, interlacing the strands can reduce to the absolute minimum the distance separating the 2 data wires, thus reducing the surface area able to pick up interference. Similarly, the communication bus emissivity is reduced, which limits the electromagnetic interference affecting other equipment. The pairs are shielded individually or all together by a copper braid. The shielding is connected at both ends but does not need to provide equipotential bonding. An earthing conductor with an appropriate cross-section must always connect the various devices if they are in different enclosures or buildings. Particular care must be taken when connecting the shielding to make sure it is effective. For further information on the setup arrangements, see the shield examples page 15 and the Installation Assistance Guide for Sepam, reference SEPED309035EN.

Bus driver

Maximum number of stations on the bus The maximum number of stations is limited by the addressing logic to 247 in Modbus and 254 in JBus. This logic limit cannot usually be achieved because electric parameters restrict the number of stations that can be physically be connected to a much lower value. Bus drivers are usually designed to supply 32 stations equipped with a receiver that imposes a so-called unitary load on the bus, which is the case for interfaces in the Sepam range. There are also receivers that impose a lesser load on the bus, allowing the number of stations to be increased. For Sepam series 20/40/48/60/80 another limitation comes into play: the distributed power supply for the ACE949, ACE959 and ACE969 interfaces. When the distributed power supply is supplied by an ACE909 or ACE919 converter the power it delivers limits the number of stations to 12. When all the Sepam relays are connected via a bus cable whose specifications comply with the values stated in the above table, the voltage drop in the wires transmitting the distributed power supply is another limiting factor. In this case, you must choose between bus length and the maximum number of stations, see details in the table on page 18. It is possible to get round this restriction by installing local distributed power supply points at judicious intervals around the architecture.

Structure of the bus

Bus matching

Termination with resistors High-speed data transmission on a bus is affected by the phenomenon of reflection at its ends. This phenomenon causes major signal distortion and must be countered. To do this, line impedance matching resistors are installed at both physical ends of the bus. For the RS 485 bus the value of these resistors is 120 to 150 . The value of the resistors is in theory equal to the cable's characteristic impedance. The value 150 is recommended by Schneider Electric because it provides good matching and restricts the load imposed on the transmission drivers. These line-end resistors (called Rc) are usually found in communication setup accessories and can be turned or off by microswitches. It is important to ensure that only 2 of these resistors are on on the entire bus.

The master is normally positioned at one end of the bus. In this case it should incorporate one of the 2 line-end resistors but this function is not necessarily allocated to the master.

If the master occupies a different physical position on the bus, matching should be implemented using the 2 slaves in the end positions.

Termination by RC network A line terminator consisting of a resistor and a capacitor in series (VW3A8306 RC for example) can eliminate the DC load imposed on the drivers. This type of termination should not be used when the common for the interfaces is not distributed. For the Sepam range it should only be used with series 10 and only if the bus is solely linking Sepam series 10 relays. Moreover, Sepam series 10 Modbus communication works perfectly with purely resistive termination, which is the preferred type.

0V

The RS 485 standard defines a dead band of +/- 200 mV around the 0 V. In this zone some types of receivers are in an undefined state. To avoid getting into this state the bus must be polarized. To do this, 2 Rp resistors are installed, one between the +5 V and line B (L-) and one other between the 0 V and line A (L+) in order to pull these lines up to a defined voltage, should no transmitter be able to do it. Polarization results in a continuous flow of current across the line impedance matching resistors. Line impedance matching and polarization resistors must be present simultaneously. The bus should only be polarized in one location on the line to avoid random transmission. It is recommended that the master's power supplies and polarization resistors be used. Rp resistors have a value of around 470 (450 to 650 ). The Sepam 2000's Modbus communication setup accessories and ACE909/919 converters can also be used to provide this polarization. However none of the Sepam series 10 to 80 interfaces can do so. Please note: Some equipment items do not comply with the RS 485 standard with respect to polarities as well as polarization and line impedance matching. When connecting equipments of several manufacturers, make sure to check these points.

2-wire RS 485 network

Two-wire cabling of the communication network makes it possible to use a single shielded pair, which means simple cabling. Each item of equipment connected to the network includes a transmitter and a receiver that are connected to the same cable. Since communication is half duplex, alternating and two-way, messages are conveyed in both directions on the same line from the master to the slaves and vice versa. Communication takes place alternately, with the transmitters taking turns on the line. The master can be any station. Connection of the stations The network comprises a single cable (a shielded, twisted pair). The various stations in the network are connected by linking both of the following: b all the outputs marked + (TD+, RD+) to the network + wire (marked L+) b all the outputs marked - (TD-, RD-) to the network - wire (marked L-). General architecture of a 2-wire RS 485 network
DE1022920 E61279DE10230

Line-end impedance matching Two 150 resistors (Rc) are required (one at each end) to match line impedance. Each item of equipment, as well as each connector, connection box or Sepam interface, contains a 150 resistor which can be used for this purpose. Polarization of the RS 485 network Polarization creates a continuous flow of current through the network, putting all the receivers in deactivated status until a transmitter is validated. The network is polarized by connecting the (L+) line to the 0 V and the (L-) line to the 5 V via two 470 polarization resistors (RP). The network should only be polarized in one location on the line to avoid random transmission. It is recommended that the masters power supplies and resistors be used. The ACE 909-2 and ACE 919 converters provide this polarization. Some Schneider equipment offers also this possibility. Please note: Some equipment items do not comply with the RS 485 standard with respect to polarities as well as polarization and line impedance matching. When connecting equipments of several manufacturers, make sure to check these points.

4-wire RS 485 network

For 4-wire connection of the communication network, 2 shielded pairs are used. With 4-wire connection, the master station is defined and then the two communication lines, a master to slaves transmission line and a slaves to master receiving line. Communication is alternating half duplex. Requests are sent from the master to the salves on the transmission line. Replies are sent from the slaves to the master on the receiving line. Connection of slave stations The different network are stations are connection by linking: b RD+ inputs to the L+ transmission line (A) b RD- inputs to the L- transmission line (B) b TD+ outputs to the L+ receiving line (A) b TD- outputs to the L- receiving line (B). Connection of the master station The connection of the master station is the opposite of that of the slave stations: b RD+ input to the L+ receiving line (A) b RD- input to the L- receiving line (B) b TD+ output to the L+ transmission line (A) b TD- output to the L- transmission line(B).

Rc = load resistor (150 ohms) Rp = polarization resistor (470 ohms)

Line-end impedance matching Four 150 Ohm resistors (Rc) are mandatory (one at each end) for impedance matching of both the transmission and receiving lines. Polarization of the RS 485 network It is necessary to polarize both the transmission and receiving lines. Polarization of the transmission and receiving lines is not ensured by the Sepam interfaces.

Connecting the shielding

Introduction
It is essential to connect shielded cables in order to protect high-frequency equipment. When the connection is made by a pigtail, i.e. a long wire, the protection is no longer effective at high frequencies.

Connecting the shielding through a partition

The most effective way to connect the shielding is connection using a metal cable gland through a partition, taking care to rough up the paintwork to ensure good electrical contact. It is possible to use a jumper that can ensure at least 180 contact.

Function
The ACE969 multi-protocol communication interfaces are for Sepam series 20, Sepam series 40, Sepam series 60 and Sepam series 80. They have two communication ports to connect a Sepam to two independent communication networks: b The S-LAN (Supervisory Local Area Network) port is used to connect Sepam to a communication network dedicated to supervision, using one of the three following protocols: v IEC 60870-5-103 v DNP3 v Modbus RTU. The communication protocol is selected at the time of Sepam parameter setting. b The E-LAN (Engineering Local Area Network) port, reserved for Sepam remote parameter setting and operation using the SFT2841 software. There are two versions of the ACE969 interfaces, which are identical except for the S-LAN port: b ACE969TP-2 (Twisted Pair), for connection to an S-LAN network using a 2-wire RS 485 serial link b ACE969FO-2 (Fiber Optic), for connection to an S-LAN network using a fiber-optic connection (star or ring). The E-LAN port is always a 2-wire RS 485 type port.

RS 485 network cable

The RS 485 network cable needed to interconnect CCA connection boxes or ACE type interfaces should have the following characteristics: b twisted pair with tinned copper braid shielding, coverage: > 65% b resistance per unit length: < 100 / km b gauge: AWG 24 b characteristic impedance: 120 b capacitance between conductors: < 60 pF / m b conductor and shielding: < 100 pF / m. The total network cable length should not be greater than 1300 meters except limitation due to distributed power supply. Examples of compatible standard cables: b supplier: BELDEN v single-pair cable, reference 9841 v 2-pair cable, reference 9842 b supplier: FILOTEX 2-pair cable, reference FMA-2PS. High-performance cables recommended for the connection of Sepam 1000+: b cables with a pair dedicated to distributed power supply v resistance per unit length < 34 per km v AWG 20 gauge b and 1 (or 2) pair(s) dedicated to the 2-wire or 4-wire RS 485 network v resistance per unit length: < 58 / km v 1 supply pair (red-black) v AWG 22 gauge b supplier: FILECA v 2-pair cable, reference F2644-1 (1 red-black supply pair, 1 white-blue RS 485 pair) (cable distributed by Schneider Electric in 60 m strands, reference CCR301) v 3-pair cable, reference F3644-1 (1 red-black supply pair, 2 white-blue and yellow-brown RS 485 pairs).

Wiring precautions
For the sake of both the safety of people and efficient combating against the effects of interference, the cabling of systems which comprise digital links must comply with a set of basic rules aimed at establishing an equipotential-bonded, meshed and earthed network. Special care must be taken when making connections between buildings with earthing that is not interconnected. For details and useful recommendations, please refer to the Schneider document DBTP 542 entitled Modbus network guide. All the accessories make it possible to ensure the continuity of the cable shielding and regular grounding. It is therefore necessary to ensure that: b the 2 connectors at the ends of the CCA 602 branching cable are plugged in correctly and locked by the 2 screws specially provided b the clamps are tightened onto the metallic shielding braid on each CCA609, CCA619, CCA629, ACE949-2, ACE959 connection box b each CCA connection box is grounded (earthed) by a 2.5 mm2 diameter greenyellow wire or a short braid (< 10 cm) via the terminal specially provided b the metal case of the ACE909-2, ACE919 converter is grounded (earthed) by a green-yellow mains power supply connector wire and an eye lug on the back of the case.

ACE909-2 converters

Function
The ACE909-2 converter is used to connect a master/central computer equipped with a V24/RS 232 type serial port as a standard feature to stations connected to a 2-wire RS 485 network. Without requiring any flow control signals, after the parameters are set, the ACE909-2 converter performs conversion, network polarization and automatic dispatching of frames between the master and the stations by two-way simplex (half-duplex, single-pair) transmission. The ACE909-2 converter also provides a 12 V DC or 24 V DC supply for the distributed power supply of the Sepam ACE949-2, ACE959 or ACE969-2 interfaces. The communication settings should be the same as the Sepam and supervisor communication settings.

Examples of connections

Connection of Sepam to an RS 485 network

Preamble
For reasons of clarity, the diagrams in this section do not show all the communication cable shielding connections. The communication interfaces must be earthed correctly to ensure correct communication network operation. For more information on this subject, refer to the RS 485 Communication Accessories section in the Digital Protection Relays Installation Assistance Guide (reference SEPED309035).

ACE949, ACE959 and ACE969 interface power supply

The Modbus RS 485 communication interfaces for Sepam series 20/40/48/60/80 must be powered by an auxiliary supply known as a distributed power supply. The supply voltage is 12 Vdc for the first generation ACE949 interface. ACE949-2, ACE959 and ACE969 second generation interfaces can be powered by a 12 or 24 Vdc supply. The ACE969-2 interface does not require a distributed power supply. Use of a 24 Vdc supply increases the permissible length of the communication bus. The distributed power supply can be provided by ACE909 (12 Vdc only), ACE909-2 or ACE919 interfaces or by an auxiliary power source supplying a suitable voltage with a maximum ripple of 12%. Power sizing is determined by the number of slaves present (or the number of intended slaves) and their consumption. Each of the interfaces mentioned above consume 16 mA on reception, a quasi-permanent state, and 40 mA on transmission. Theoretically a single slave transmits at a time t. The voltage drop must be taken into account in the cable carrying the distribution power supply. For long distances, it is possible to use several local power supplies. In this case the negative poles are connected to provide electrical continuity but the positive pole is only distributed in the relevant zone. See the last two connection examples below.

Configurations with RS 232 master

Operating problems
It is advisable to connect the devices to the RS 485 network one by one. The green or yellow lamp indicates that there is traffic on the line. Make sure that the master sends frames to the equipment concerned and to the RS 232 - RS 485 / RS 485 - RS 485 converter, if there is. Points to be checked Check: b the wiring to the CCA612 connectors, the CCA602 branching cables and the RS 485 network cable b the wiring of the ACE convecters b the wiring to each CCA629, CCA609 and CCA619 connection box b the wiring of the ACE949-2 or ACE959 interface b the distributed voltage V+, V- (12 or 24Vdc) b the polarization is in one location only b the impedance matching is set up at the ends and only at the ends of the RS 485 network b the cable used is the one advised b the ACE converters used are correctly connected and parameterized b the L+ or L- lines are not earthed b the earthing of all the cable shielding b the earthing of all the converters, interfaces and connection boxes. Use an oscilloscope to check the forum of the signals: b transmit voltage v level 0 VAB from +1,5 Vto +6 V v level 1 VAB from -1,5 V to -6 V v In general, the level is 5 V b reception voltage threshold v level 0 VAB > +0,2 V v level 1 VAB < -0,2 V.

Troubleshooting

Example of correct signals:

DE81159 DE81160

Example of incorrect signals:

F E

Zone A: transmission from the master, amplitude 5.4 V. Zone B: transmission from the slave, amplitude 5 V. Zone C: bus in the idle state: -0.2 V The signals are symmetrical in relation to zero and the idle state is close to 0 V.

Zone D: transmission from the master, amplitude 5 V. Zone E: transmission from the slave, amplitude 2.8 V. Zone F: bus in the idle state: -2 V. In this case, the bus polarization is not adhered to. This is seen at the voltage's strongly negative value when there is no communication. The slave's response is not understood by the master since, although the amplitude is higher than 1.5 V, it is completely below the zero volt, preventing the master's reception circuit from detecting signals 1 and 0.
