MultiCon CMC

MultiCon = Meter + Controller

+ Recorder + HMI + SCADA in one package

The MultiCon line includes advanced controllers and recorders with great potential closed in small casings. MultiCon has been
specifically designed for advanced applications in industrial automatic control engineering. It does not mean, however, that the
device cannot be applied in smaller systems. MultiCon can be equipped with three isolated RS-485 interfaces which make it a perfect
solution for distributed systems to work as Master unit. Thanks to Ethernet port the device can be monitored via the Internet. A wide
range of input and output modules allows to customize MultiCon precisely as the customer requires it. Thanks to a colour touchscreen
working with the user interface becomes a pleasure, while MultiCon operation playing the role of HMI is intuitive and comfortable.
Our devices are LINUX-based products to ensure stable operation.

Hardware inputs/outputs
The biggest advantage of all devices from the MultiCon line is
a big number of built-in inputs / outputs accessible in one
compact device. The most developed version CMC-99 has up to
48 measurement or digital inputs and 60 virtual channels whereas
CMC-141 has 50% more inputs / outputs and virtual channels.

Thanks to a well-thought-out module design you can choose

among a wide range of cards and connect them to slots in the way
you wish but you do not have to use all slots. You can also decide
on your own how to use virtual channels, if they are going to be
used for direct measurement readings, mathematical functions,
timers, profile creation, set points or virtual objects.

We offer the following cards:

 Construction
MultiCon family

CMC-99 is the first device in MultiCon line. It’s equipped with a 3.5" colour LCD
touchscreen which makes user-friendly, easy and comfortable configuration and data

96 mm
presentation readable and attractive. Although the Multicon CMC-99 is build in a quite
small housing, it can integrate up to 48 inputs, and its construction allows user almost
free configuration by choosing up to 27 available input/output cards. In CMC-99 we

mm
have provided 60 logical channels, what is enough to build basic applications.

96 mm

CMC-141 is CMC-99's bigger brother. It has all features included in CMC-99, but in
addition it has a bigger display, more inputs/outputs and even more virtual channels.

144 mm
CMC-141 is equipped with a 5.7" LCD touchscreen. The number of virtual channels was
increased to 90, it helps to build sophisticated applications much easier. Despite of
small, compact case, unit allows direct connection (in a maximum mount) as many as 72
analogue or digital inputs and thanks to its design the user can configure the device on

mm
his own, using a wide range of different I / O cards. Casing depth is still only 100 mm.

144 mm

As a result of extending the range of functional applications of the MultiCon line, the
CMC-N16 wall mounted model has been designed. The new IP 65 enclosure allows
161 mm

using the device in harsh environments, where safe installation of a typical controller /
data recorder in a panel mounted enclosure is impossible. Although the number of
available inputs is reduced if compared with the panel mounted model, the
functionality available so far has been maintained.

You no longer have to press the buttons to move the cursor over the virtual
keyboard to input only one character. Thanks to the touch screen, you can
now operate the device more efficiently and comfortably. The screen is
perfect for industrial environments; dirt and dust do not affect the
precision of touch. The color LCD display 3.5" TFT (5.7" in CMC- 141), 320 x
240 pixels, 65.536 colors - data is presented in clear and pleasant colors.
The devices also support USB keyboard and mouse. You can connect them
and start using them immediately - just like on an ordinary PC.

 Data recording
up to 300 000 000 records!
recording intense medium economy
Data recording makes a kind of a value added to the tremendous mode (every 1 sec.) (every 10 sec.) (every 1 min.)
possibilities shown above. MultiCon can record any 60 measurement

channels at a speed of 10 samples per second. It has 2 or 4 GB built-in
48 channels 30 days 8 months 4 years
flash memory, enabling for data logging up to 300 000 000 records.
The function of data logging has been also optimized for the use of 24 channels 50 days 15 months 7 years
hardware resources of this device - the channels for data logging are Memory buffer for a 2 GB card
grouped (1-6 channels) and in each group a speed of data logging can
be freely set. Additionally, there is a unique option of alternative recording intense medium economy
(higher or lower) speed data logging, which is set off only under user- mode (every 1 sec.) (every 10 sec.) (every 1 min.)

Auto Log Creation - new recording possibilities

Data recording can be triggered in many ways and separately for each group of measurements. Logging can take place continuously or
only under certain conditions, e.g. for a specific period. It is also possible to trigger recording only at key points in the production
process with an individually set sampling time.
A very useful feature of data logging is the so-called “Auto Log Creation”, which creates a completely new file with recording data.
Each file can contain any description and only the data that is relevant for the registered parameter group. This is a solution for all
those interested, for example, in creating daily reports or dividing documentation into parts corresponding to the next stages of the
process.

individual files for single records

new file created on demand
custom description of the logging file
simple reporting and data identification

Data download
The recorded data can be downloaded from the internal memory in a way which suits you
best. Use a USB flashdrive or Ethernet which allows you to perform the task wherever you
are. Retrieving data is very simple and you can choose to export from the device only selected
and relevant files. Real-time measurements can be read-out via the Ethernet (Modbus TCP)
or a RS-485 link (Modbus RTU).

 Control
Logical channels
A distinctive feature of MultiCon is its ability to perform measurement, processing and control tasks at
the same time. It is achieved by using the so-called "logical channels", which provide a virtual bridge
between physical inputs/outputs and control and visualization processes. An extensive configuration
menu of logical channels makes it possible to configure them in detail. The user alone can decide how
to use the available logical channels in MultiCon devices. A logical channel can represent data from
physical inputs and outputs, process data from other logical channels using mathematical and logical
functions, generate constant values (set points) or sequence diagrams (profiles), operate in the PID
controller mode, act as a virtual function key. Relationships between channels can be set directly in the
device and it is not necessary to know any programming language. As the essence of any data processing are mathematical
operations, the device supports many standard functions that can help build complex algorithms.

PID controller, autotuning, fuzzy logic ...

Process control is one of the main functions of MultiCon device. Apart from simple threshold (ON/OFF) and proportional controls, it is
also equipped with proportional-integral-derivative controllers (PID), used mainly to maintain stable conditions in the case of
demanding applications. Their operation consists in calculating the difference between the measured and preset values as well as
modifying the output signal in order to reduce the control error.

A wide range of parameters and functions featured by PID controllers allows, among
other things, the following actions:
optimal adjustment of the controller coefficients to the process requirements y
through the autotuning function, 5 without control

optimization of the output signal owing to additional parameters, such as the

4 I control
inertia level or fuzzy logic,
any (manual or automatic) starting-up and stopping of the controller operation. 3 P control

PD control

MultiCon is equipped with 8 controllers, each of which can accept independent 2

setpoints and, at the same time, be used to adjust several independent processes,

which allows the control of several processes with different characteristics using one 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 t/T

device.

Mathematical functions
Over 30 mathematical functions allow the measurement results to be operated freely. MultiCon
allows you not only to use arithmetic and trigonometric functions such as addition, multiplication,
sine, raising to a power, but also logical ones (comparing to a constant, comparing the measured
values or multiplexer) which makes the developing of the advanced applications much more easy. The
source of data in mathematical functions can be logical channels and constant values set in the menu.

Timing profiles
Software built-in timing profiles (free programmable runs) allow for the unique freedom in shaping a
run control and possibility to start the control process at a preset time or when a defined event occurs.
Their functions enable the control to be stopped at a specific time/conditionally at any point of the
run, to be looped and it is possible to carry any other operation on a setpoint.

 Communication
Interfaces
Almost every modern electronic measuring instrument is equipped with some
type of a communication interface - MultiCon has several of them. The primary
type of an interface is USB Host. It allows you to connect the device not only with
a standard PC mouse and keyboard, but also an external flash drive and to
download recorded data. More interesting, from the point of view of the
communication with the environment, is RS-485 interface with Modbus RTU
Protocol available in standard equipment. Like other interfaces, RS-485 and RS-232
available in an optional interface module, interface device, each of which can
operate independently as Master or Slave at a different transmission speed.
Enhanced menu interface allows you to easily configure it, so that MultiCon will
read data from any device equipped with RS-485 port, and will control a condition
of outputs in it, if it can be remotely controlled.

However, the widest range of options is provided by the Ethernet port with implemented communication protocols. Built-in
Web Server provides convenient access to the device via a web browser. In addition, support for dynamic objects in HTML5 allow you
to create your own web pages that visualize the control process. Modbus TCP protocol supports reading data from the MultiCon by
master devices, e.g. PLCs and any SCADA software. HTTP protocol allows the user to retrieve the registered data from the recorder,
and SNP support ensures synchronization of date and time on all devices installed on the site.

E-mail notifications
In response to our Customers' demands, the MultiCon line devices are
now equipped with a function: an “E-mail notifications” system. It
enables sending e-mails directly from the MultiCon, which makes the
device even better adapted to high-tech alarm and monitoring
systems. The user can define up to 32 different messages to be sent in
case of any of the specified events. An e-mail message consists of three
elements: topic and text of the message (both with fixed content) and
an attachment containing momentary values from the selected groups
of or individual measurement channels in the .csv format. The “E-mail
notifications” is now available as standard!
E-MAIL
@

Remote display
One of the benefits of providing the MultiCon device with Ethernet port includes video streaming. If the ETU or ACM communication
card operates in the device, it is possible to transfer the image to a Windows computer. It should be directly connected with the device
or operate in the same network. Most frequently, this is the plant LAN. After installation of the dedicated Xming software, the screen
can be transfered to the computer, maintaining all functionalities of the device. The computer operator will obtain complete
MultiCon functionality, the same as in the case of direct access. The transferred screen is handled using a mouse cursor under the
same principles as in the case of a touch screen.

This functionality is most often used for:

TCP/IP device configuration,
diagnostics,
saving/loading the configuration file,
previewing the current values.

 Presentation and data security
SCADALite
SCADALite functionality is activated by default, allows for process management directly from the MultiCon screen.
Information important for the operator can be presented in graphical form, including animations, dynamic charts, the most important numbers and,
in the case of alarm, also sounds. SCADALite enables definition of a specified number of screens to present different range of the required
information. The specified measurement parameters can be included in the graphics that reflects the monitored process/facility by means of a
photo or drawing. SCADALite is an innovation in data presentation.

4ControllerView NEW

The 4ControllerView functionality - a new mode of presenting the state of logic channels for
a given measurement group, designed especially for the use of MultiCon as a controller.

Each MultiCon line device has eight independent PID control loops. The 4ControllerView
function displays four channels in the numerical value mode (including: two "major" and
two "auxiliary" ones) and two in the binary mode.
The first two lines are the typical PID control values which are PV and SV, each with its own
percentage indication, description, and process unit. The SV value as a variable parameter
can be set directly from the screen in the dynamic configuration mode.
Auxiliary values can indicate any parameters regarding the control process, e.g. % of the full
range of the control signal or deviation value.
The screen shows 1 controller (6 values) simultaneously by default. Optionally, after the
screen split, it can show up to 4 different controllers at the same time (24 values). In such
case, each controller is shown in a different color and name. It is very useful, especially in
monitoring processes that take place one after another.

4ControllerView is:
differentiation of individual values importance and their role in a controlled process,
easier key data reading from a distance,
clear presentation of data from many logical channels groups.

Parametric screeens
Irrespective of the advanced SCADALite data visualization possibilities, the operator may select one of the standard views, according
to individual preferences. Depending on whether we need a detailed information on the signal value, quick insight into the signal level,
or parameter trend over time, the data can be presented as:

numerical values,
quasi-analog indicators,
phasor charts,
horizontal or vertical charts,
horizontal or vertical bars,
simultaneous presentation of many groups.

HTML5 and Sidgets NEW

The MultiCon line devices equipped with Ethernet port allow also
a very easy remote monitoring of measurement results using a
web browser, as well as a very attractive graphical presentation in
the form of built-in or user-created websites. Along with the
device, the manufacturer supplies a set of built-in visual

The authorisation process is done with entering the password by an Technologist

operator or plugging the USB dongle into the USB port, as an access key. The Administrator
configuration file, includes user’s permissions, may be saved on the USB
memory and moved quickly between devices.

LookUp Table - user characteristic Tool

The LookUp Table in the user characteristics function is a great tool
export csv file which allows entering individual points of the characteristics in the
form of a csv file, and then importing them to any MultiCon logical
channel. Additionally, the edited list may be saved, from the device
level, in a new file and used to scale another channel.

 Software
DAQ Manager
To manage such vast amount of data we have designed the free of charge DAQ Manager software to help you.
The software allows to:
- visualize data in the form of graphs and tables,
- group measurement results,
- create reports,
- export data into other files.

In addition to the data presentation mode (chart/table), the user can also select only the logic channel group concerned.
Transparency of presentation will be also enhanced by the change of the time range to such that is important for the analysis being
performed. Data and current measurement values recorded by the device can be downloaded automatically or manually by the user.
DAQ Manager offers the possibility of creating an individual schedule, in accordance with which data will be downloaded only as
selected by it.

Applications in which data recorded by one device are handled by more than one
person, or where the data are important in several process points, can be also
implemented based on data downloading using the DAQ Manager. Several
computers with an installed software can successfully download data from the
same MultiCon recorder at the same time.

You can download fully functional free version from our website (www.simex.pl
or www.multicon24.eu) or ordered as a payable CD-ROM version.

Firmware
Thanks to the cooperation with our customers we can continue to develop the software and provide it with new
useful functions. Interesting suggestions and needs of our customers have been contributing to better firmware.
MultiCon update means three easy steps: download the update free of charge from the www.multicon24.eu
