Implementation of DTM's to support Altivar Process drives and other Ethernet based products.

Status: Under consideration Submitted by Lieutenant JG Teaan on ‎2020-09-10 06:16 PM

The M580 makes use of DTM's to connect to Process drives, TesysT's etc. This allows for the use of IO Scanning registers on these devices through the use of Modbus Function Code 23 (might be incorrect code). I believe this is a key feature for quickly adding multiple Ethernet devices to the SCADAPack and help with advanced diagnostics on your Process network.

The SCADAPack family already has a more capable Modbus Scanner configuration than the M580 provides.

I agree that having a 'library' for a particular set of scanner entries to represent a device type is good, but I think having them as DTMs is terrible.

It should be possible to have a lightweight XML (or JSON) format which would represent a set of Modbus transactions, and their transforms into a set of controller objects.  This could then be hand edited / created as needed for new devices.

 

Please say no to DTMs that you need to install and maintain version coherency with... it's painful.

@Teaan 

 

We’re looking at adding libraries to RemoteConnect that could include pre-configured support for Altivar VFDs and TeSys T motor controllers. Are there other devices of specific interest?

Regards,

Martin

@MartinChartrand 

 

My Apologies for only replying now, I have been neck deep in projects. I believe the VFD's and TeSys T are the most important, I have been playing with the TesysT Island as well which is an absolutely game changing project and it would be great if we can get integration of this as well. 

 

Best Regards

Teaan
