Introduction
REMIND EPC 50 Network, is an Alfa Laval software specifically designed for supervision and remote control of separation units with EPC 50 Control System. With the EPC 50 Control System in remote mode, you can supervise and control the separator units from a personal computer, PC, placed in a control room.
2.1 Requirements
The program REMIND EPC 50 Network will run on a PC which meets the following requirements: Processor at least Pentium 200 MHz with 16 Mbyte RAM (32 Mbye is recommended) and 30 Mbyte hard disk space available. Operating system Windows 95 and later or Windows NT 4.00 and later. One free RS232 COM-port or one free ISA PC slot.
Warning! Before carrying out any operation that may effect the EPC 50, take steps to ensure that no injury to personnel or damage to equipment can occur as a result of the changes.

A shielded twisted pair cable with a minimum of 3 twists/m and 80120 characteristic impedance should be used as the bus cable. Minimum area is 0.35 mm 2.
Note!
The same type of cable must be used for the entire SattBus installation. Cable length and number of nodes The total length must not exceed 500 m. Termination The bus cable should be terminated with 100 resistors, connected at the two most remote ends, measured along the cable. See figure above. All units in EPC 50 system, i.e. OP, I/O and MT 50, have internal termination resistors which can be connected/disconnected by jumpers. For EPC 50 I/O-board termination resistor is connected by placing jumper XJ3 in position TERM.

For EPC 50 Remote OP the termination resistor is connected by placing a jumper wire between terminal no. 5 and 6 in connector X1, i.e the screw terminal in the panel box. At the PC, a 100 termination resistor should be connected in the SattBus connector. This is valid for both SattBus PC board and SBSU unit. Only two termination resistor, one at each end, of a SattBus network must be connected!

Hardware Installation
This chapter describes how to connect the PC with REMIND EPC50 Network installed, to EPC 50 Control Cabinets via SattBus network. Up to nine EPC 50 Control Cabinets can be connected. Warning! When handling electronics, avoid electrostatic discharge e.g. by wearing an ESD bracelet.
5.1 Overview
SattBus interconnects the EPC 50 units, MT50, OP and I/O module, in the EPC 50 control system. See figure below. An optional remote OP may also be connected to SattBus. A PC with REMIND EPC 50, Network can be connected to SattBus in two alternative ways: to SattBus via a SattBus PC board which is mounted inside the PC. (REMIND EPC 50, Network Kit, PC-card art.no. 31830-6410-1) to SattBus via a SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU. One of the serial ports of the PC is then used. (REMIND EPC 50, Network Kit, SBSU art.no. 31830-6411-1).

5.3 Connect a PC to EPC50 Control Cabinet using a SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU
This alternative connects SattBus to the PC via a SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU. Below is a step-by-step description that shows how to connect the PC to a single EPC 50 unit or to the first of several EPC 50 units. 1. Remove the cover from the SBSU unit and set the switches as described below. The SBSU layout, function etc. is described in SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39. Node identity Set the node address to 19 for control and monitoring. If node address is set to 18 only monitoring is possible. The address is set by the two hexadecimal switches Node identity. See chapter SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39. Set switch marked H to "1" and switch marked "L" to "3" for control and monitoring or to "2" for only monitoring. Other settnings are described in chapter SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39. Filter address All four switches SW1SW2 must be set to zero.

Mode switch The mode switch SW must be set to zero, see chapter SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39). Serial channel parameters The DIP switch below the node identity switches (see chapter SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39) is used to set the serial channel parameters. Normally 9600 baud, no parity (SW1 - 5), and "Host interface mode" (SW6 - 8) should be chosen.

Other settings are described in SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39. 2. Mount the SBSU unit close to the PC by means of 4 screws or a DIN rail. The unit needs a power supply, see the step below. The unit is described in SattBus Serial Unit, SBSU Description on page 39. 3. Connect 24 V DC from the power supply ( art.no.: 490083613) to the SBSU 3-pole jackable screw terminal block (marked POWER). A suitable cable is 3 1.5 mm 2 . The voltage at the terminal screws must be 1932 V DC. Connect protective ground to the relevant terminal screw, and connect 0 V to ground only at one end of the cable.

4. Use the serial communication cable (RS232, art.no.: 490173740) for connection between the serial port of the PC and the SBSU unit (channel 1). Maximum cable length is 15 m. Use a screened cable and connect the screen to the metal case of the connector. Use a 25-pole metallic male Dtype connector on the SBSU side. The electric diagram below shows the required connections.

NOTE!
Before the systems will be interconnected, check that the systems have different identities. Unexpected problems could arise if two systems have the same identity and communication would be delayed. A maximum of nine EPC 50 units can be connected via SattBus to the PC with the REMINDTM program.
The node addresses for each unit must be set before starting up. They are set using the Operators panel. Setting the node addresses All node addresses on SattBus must be unique, which means that each EPC 50 connected to SattBus must have a unique separator identity. The EPC 50 identity is default 1. If one EPC 50 unit is connected, this should have the identity 1, the second unit should have the identity 2 etc. The identity 1 means that all nodes belonging to the unit start at 10, identity 2 means start at 20 etc., see figure below. Monitoring mode means address 18, and Control monitoring mode means address 19. To set the identity, select on the Operators panel menu item Separator Identity In 5, and then select set required identity (19).

5. Is communication established with some nodes, but not all? - Check that all EPC units which are defined in the system setup, physically are connected to the network. - Check that the SattBus LED on the I/O board (see figure on page 23) is flashing on all EPC units connected to the network. - Check the REMIND system setup. Each EPC system number must correspond to the installation parameter IN5 value in the EPC50 unit. - Check that communication parameter values are Fa 94 = 9.6 and Fa 95 = No.

This chapter describes the layout of the SattBus PC-board och how to configure it. The board is used as the hardware interface for connecting a personal computer (PC) of IBM compatible PC type to a SattBus network. The SattBus PC-board is a half size standard I/O channel board (approximately 161 x 127 x 22 mm) which mounts in the PC.

Switch for connection of the 100 ohm termination resistor on the SattBus PC-board, if the board is located at the end of the network, see figure. S5 = OFF when the resistor is not connected. The switch is set to the right. This is the normal position. A standard 100 ohm resistor must be placed in the jackable side of the terminal to avoid interrupting the SattBus communication if the jackable terminal is disconnected. S5 = ON when the resistor is connected. The switch is set to the left. This position is not recommended. Note: If the jackable terminal is disconnected, the SattBus then loses the termination resistor and the communication is corrupted.

A message from a node in SattBus network No. 1 with the destination address X is transmitted to SattBus network No. 2 only if X is in the range set by the low and the high filter addresses of SBSU No. 1, see figure below. In the same way, a message is transmitted from SattBus network No. 2 to network No. 1 only if the destination address Y is in between the low and the high filter addresses of SBSU No. 2.
SattBus network No. 1 SattBus network No. 2
The low and high filter addresses are set by means of the hexadecimal switches SW1 and SW2, see figure on page 40. The decimal address in the range 5125 can be read from the table above. Example: An SBSU in bridge configuration is to transmit messages from the SattBus side with destination addresses only in the range 1859
.
