System Requirements and Compatibility 5


1 System Requirements and Compatibility

1.1 EMCP 3 Generator Set Control (GSC) The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software supports communication with the EMCP 3.2 and EMCP 3.3 GSC. The EMCP 3.1 does not feature Modbus, and therefore is not supported.

The EMCP 3 GSC is field-programmable. Modbus support in the EMCP 3 depends on the EMCP 3 software version. To determine the software version, connect to the primary or accessory data link through the service connector with Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Figure 1).

The earliest version of EMCP 3 software that supports Modbus is 1.5 Prod. However, with any version prior to 2.2 Prod, EMCP 3 Monitoring Software support will be somewhat limited. Here are some of the potential limitations:

• For versions before 1.8 Prod, events will not be supported • Newer features such as Fuel Priming, Low Cranking Voltage, Map Selection for analog

inputs, Programmable Cycle Timer, and Generator Winding Temperatures events may be unavailable

• All events may not be supported (unsupported events will still display the event code, but not the description)

• Some temperatures acquired from the primary or accessory data link may not be supported • Engine turbocharger temperatures may not be supported • EMCP 3 status information such as build version and serial number may not be supported

In order to guarantee full support for all features of the EMCP 3, it is recommended to obtain version 2.2 Prod of the software. If newer versions are available, they may contain new features not supported by this version of the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software. Check Cat PowerNet for new versions with updated support.

1.2 Caterpillar Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software supports communication with Caterpillar ATS 300 models that have the MX150 (Figure 2) or MX250 (Figure 3) controller. Compatible ATS’s must also have the Modbus communication card option installed. To check whether the option is installed,

Figure 1: Caterpillar Service Tool Showing EMCP 3 Software Version

6 Network and Device Setup


examine the back of the controller by opening the ATS cabinet, if the option is installed, a green 2-pin terminal block across from the wording can be found (Figure 4).

If the terminal block is not visible (option is not installed) contact the Application Support Center regarding the purchase of that option.

Modbus support also requires ATS controller software version number 6.0 or higher. To determine the software version, perform the following steps:

The ATS is not field-programmable. Upgrading the software requires ordering a different ATS controller. Contact the Application Support Center regarding the ATS controller software upgrade process.

1.3 Caterpillar Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software supports the 300 Series of Caterpillar UPS with the Modbus communication option. Modbus communication is enabled by swapping the System Input/Output Daughterboard (SIOD, Figure 5) with another SIOD containing the Modbus feature. The SIOD board containing Modbus functionality is available for order: Cat Part # 229-2890.

Figure 4: Cat ATS Modbus Terminal Block

Figure 2: Cat ATS MX150 Controller

Figure 3: Cat ATS MX250 Controller



1.4 Monitoring PC The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software functions with Microsoft Windows® 2000 and XP operating systems. A color monitor with a minimum screen resolution of 1024x768 is required, but a screen resolution of 1280x1024 is strongly recommended. The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software requires 40MB of RAM to run and 30MB of hard drive space to install. For saving configurations, data logging, etc, at least 200MB of free hard drive space is strongly recommended.

1.5 Distance The total distance between all devices in the RS-485 Modbus network may not exceed 4000ft (1200m). See section 2.1 for details on configuration options.

1.6 Telephone Lines The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software supports connection over a modem which allows connections from remote monitoring locations using the public switched telephone network to remote sites which have analog telephone lines. See section 3.1.2 for more details on modem connectivity.

1.7 Local Area Network or Internet Third party gateway devices are available that allow the EMCP 3 or other Modbus devices to be monitored remotely over a Local Area Network (LAN) or Wide Area Network (WAN), such as the internet. The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software can still be used at the remote location if a virtual COM port is created. Ensure that the device being selected has this capability. The procedure for configuring one particular device is given in section 3.1.3.

Figure 5: Cat UPS System I/O Daughter (SIOD) Board




2.1 Configuration Options The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software uses the Modbus RTU communications protocol and is designed to use the half-duplex RS-485 hardware protocol. Because PCs do not typically support RS-485 natively, some form of protocol conversion is necessary. See section 3.1 for PC connection and conversion options.

The Modbus RTU communications protocol is a master-slave network. The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software must be the one and only master on the network. It can be physically located anywhere on the network.

The RS-485 hardware protocol supports two network configurations: Bus configuration and Daisy Chain configuration.

2.1.1 Bus (Trunk and Drop) The Bus configuration (Figure 6a) is based on a central Bus, or Trunk, which extends the longest distance from network end to end. The maximum length of the Trunk is 4000ft (1200m). Ends of the trunk should have line termination (section2.3). Connections to devices in between the trunk ends are made by Drops, which can be no more than 32ft (10m) in length. Drops are connected to the Trunk either by splices or three-way connectors.

2.1.2 Daisy Chain The Daisy Chain configuration (Figure 6b) is based on point-to-point connections between devices. The maximum cable distance between the two devices at the extreme ends is 4000ft (1200m). End devices should have line termination (section2.3). All devices in the Daisy Chain configuration, except the two at the extreme ends, will have two cables entering the Modbus connection points.

Due to the lack of splices or three-way connections, the Daisy Chain configuration provides simplicity over the Bus configuration. The Daisy Chain configuration is basically a Bus configuration with Drop lengths of zero, reducing flexibility for device positioning and cable routing.

Figure 6: RS-485 (a) Bus and (b) Daisy Chain Configurations



2.1.3 Distance Limitations RS-485 networks all have the following distance limitations (Figure 7):

• Maximum Trunk length:

4000ft (1200m)

• Maximum Drop length: 32ft

(10m)

Additionally, the Modbus RTU protocol and the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software limit the number of devices to:

• 1 Master

• 16 Slaves

• (17 Total)

There are RS-485 network devices called repeaters available which are advertised to provide two benefits:

• Extended range

• Expanded number of devices

supported (RS-485 normally

limits to 32)

On the Modbus network, a repeater placed at one extreme end of the trunk may work to extend the distance between devices. However, on the Modbus network Mastered by the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software, no more than 16 Slave devices can be addressed, regardless of repeaters or protocol conversions.

No repeaters have been specified, tested, and validated to work with the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software or the Caterpillar electric power devices supported by the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software, therefore no support for such a device can be provided.

2.2 Cabling The RS-485 data link is a two wire data link. The minimum requirement is a two-conductor shielded-twisted-pair (STP) cable, with wire gauge of 24AWG or thicker. This cable is available with Cat Part # 134-6258.

Note: RS-485 cabling is normally specified as a two-wire twisted-pair cable. For electric power sites with multiple devices, electrical noise, and multiple earth grounds, two-wire cabling may not be adequate. Three-conductor cables may be

Figure 7: RS-485 Network Distance Limitations



used instead, and the ground or Modbus Reference lines connected together as shown in Figure 8.

A low-cost alternative to three-conductor cable is CAT5 cable. If using CAT5 cable, one pair can be used for Modbus(+) and Modbus(-), and another pair can be shorted together and used for Modbus Reference / Ground. The other two pairs will not be needed.

2.3 Device Setup All supported Caterpillar electric power devices on the Modbus RTU network must be properly connected and configured to operate correctly on the Modbus network, otherwise some or all of the devices may fail to communicate.

Note 1: Optional. May help maintain signal integrity on large systems with noisy or differing earth ground potentials. If CAT5 or other four-conductor cabling is used, One pair may be shorted together and used for the Ground signal.

Note 2: See Section 2.3.1 for details on connecting to a protocol converter.

Note 3: Long networks, over 2000ft (600m), may require two termination resistors between the Mb - and Mb + lines at the two extreme ends of the network. The value of the resistors will depend on the characteristic impedance of the cable, which is typically between 100Ω and 120Ω.

Note 4: Only the first EMCP 3 GSC on the Modbus network should have Battery (-) connected to the cable shield. If an EMCP 3 GSC is not present on the network, any single chassis ground may be used. There must be only one connection to the cable shield.

Note 5: See section 2.3.3 for details on connecting to the ATS.

The factors to consider for each device are:

1. Connecting the Modbus (+) and Modbus (-) wires (and Modbus Reference wire, if needed)

2. Grounding the shield wire (one place only)

3. Terminating the line (devices at extreme ends of the network only)

Figure 8: Example of Modbus Wiring to System Devices



4. Biasing the line (one place only)

5. Configuring the Slave Address, Baud Rate, and Parity

1. Connecting the Modbus(+), Modbus(-), and Modbus Reference wires: refer to the following subsections 2.3.2, 2.3.3, and 2.3.4 for wiring details for each device type.

TIP: Reversing the polarity – that is, inadvertently connecting the Modbus(+) wire to the Modbus(-) terminal – will not harm the hardware. If in doubt, try switching the wires.

2. Grounding the shield wire: The shield wire can be grounded at any device. To avoid ground loops, the shield wire must be grounded at only one location. To maximize noise rejection, a continuous shield should be maintained along as much of the RS-485 cabling as possible. If a generator set is present on the network, the ground can be landed at one of the EMCP 3 panels, since a clean ground is available. See section 2.3.2 for more information.

TIP: Maintain the shield as far into a connector as possible; when connecting two separate cables, tie the shields together.

3. Terminating the line: Line termination is not required but may be beneficial in maintaining the integrity of signals in long networks or where significant electrical noise is present. Most devices require external termination by means of a resistor (with value between 100Ω and 120Ω) across the Modbus(+) to Modbus(-) lines. Termination should be done at a maximum of two locations on the network, and these should be at the extreme ends.

4. Biasing the line: Biasing the line is not required but may be beneficial in maintaining the integrity of signals in long networks, or if PC-port-powered protocol converters are used. The EMCP 3 has built-in biasing capability; see section 2.3.2 for instructions for enabling/disabling the internal biasing.

5. Configuring the Slave Address, Baud Rate, and Parity: Slave Address must be set unique to each device, and can be any number from 1 to 247. Baud Rate must be set the same for all devices. See Table 1 for baud rates supported by each device. Parity must also be set the same for all devices. Refer to the following subsections 2.3.2, 2.3.3, and 2.3.4 for configuration details for each device.

Table 1: Baud Rates Supported by Each Device

Baud Rate (bits/second) 1200 2400 4800 9600 14,400 19,200 28,800 38,400 57,600

(“56k”)EMCP 3 ATS UPS EMCP 3 Monitoring Software



2.3.1 Protocol Converter Most PCs do not support the RS-485 hardware protocol. Therefore a protocol converter is needed to convert RS-485 into a format supported by a PC. This format is typically RS-232 (i.e. the “serial port” on a PC), but can also be USB or Ethernet. Most converters will auto-detect and support a variety of Baud Rates and Parity settings, compatibility must be considered when selecting a converter. Some converters may require jumpers, external resistors to select Baud Rates, DIP switch settings, etc. Some converters may provide internal line termination, eliminating the need for an external terminating resistor on that end of the network. See section 3.1 for more details on various connection options and available converters.

2.3.2 EMCP 3 1. Connecting the Modbus(+), Modbus(-), and Modbus Reference wires: The EMCP 3

contains three pins dedicated to Modbus: Modbus+, Modbus-, and Modbus-Ref. In the EMCP 3 panel, there should be a customer interconnect panel with these terminals labeled. Example: Figure 9 shows the customer interconnect panel for the 3500 EUI global design genset package, part number 290-9671. Refer to package documentation for specific connection points for your package. .

2. Grounding the shield wire: If a generator set is one of the devices being networked, the network cable shield wire should be terminated on the Battery(-) terminal of the EMCP 3 panel.

3. Terminating the line: Line termination must be done by attaching a resistor between the Modbus+ and Modbus- terminals.

Figure 9: Example Genset Package Drawing - Customer Modbus Connections



4. Biasing the line and –

5. – configuring the Slave Address, Baud Rate, and Parity:

These are software-configurable in the EMCP 3. From the EMCP 3 display Main Menu, navigate to the Data Link - SCADA menu (Figure 10). The first setpoint inside that menu is the SCADA Data Link Baud Rate. Set this value to a baud rate supported by all devices on the network. The second is the SCADA Data Link Parity. Similarly, set this value to a parity (Even, Odd, or None) supported by all devices on the Modbus network. The third is the SCADA Data Link Slave Address. This must be unique for all devices on the Modbus network. The EMCP 3 allows any value between 1 and 247. The sixth setpoint is the RS-485 Bias Resistor Enable Status. This should be Enabled on a maximum of one EMCP 3 on the entire network.

TIP: The RS-232 to RS-485 converter described in section 3.1.1 contains internal biasing. If using that converter, disable the EMCP 3 setpoint RS-485 Bias Resistor Enable Status.

2.3.3 ATS Caterpillar ATS units containing the MX150 and MX250 controller support Modbus, and are compatible with the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software.

1. Connecting the Modbus(+), Modbus(-), and Modbus Reference wires: To locate the connection points for the Modbus cable, open the ATS cabinet and locate the rear of the controller box as shown in Figure 11. Locate labeling on the back cover of the controller which reads “Network Communications (Option)”. The Modbus terminals are not individually labeled on the ATS controller. The terminals on the green block represent Modbus- and Modbus+, top to bottom, as shown on Figure 12. If there are wires pulled out to a set of fuses, make connections to the far end of the fuses (illustration of fuses and connection is given in Figure 13).

2. Grounding the shield wire: The shield wire should be grounded at one of the generator set

panels. However, if a generator set is not present on the system, it can be grounded at a convenient chassis ground point in the ATS cabinet.

Figure 13: Cat ATS Modbus Fuse Block Pin Connection



3. Terminating the line: The Cat ATS controller has an internal termination jumper that can be enabled if the ATS is at the end of the Modbus network. However, this process is complicated and necessitates disassembling the controller. An external resistor can be placed between the Modbus+ and Modbus- connection points. If using the internal termination jumper is desired, refer to the MX150/MX250 Modbus Network Card Operations and Maintenance Manual (see References).

4. Biasing the line: The Cat ATS controller does not support biasing the Modbus lines. If there is an EMCP 3 generator set controller on the Modbus network, line biasing can be done there.

5. Configuring the Slave Address, Baud Rate, and Parity: Default settings for ATS Modbus are Slave Address 1, RTU mode, 9600 Baud, No Parity and 2 Stop Bits. These settings might need to be changed to assign a unique Slave Address, and match the network Baud Rate and Parity. These settings are configured using the Modbus Configuration application (GE Zenith Part # 50P-1111).

PC Setup 21


3 PC Setup While the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software uses a PC serial port to communicate with slave devices on the Modbus network, direct connection is not necessary. In addition to modem connectivity, the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software can communicate using other methods (virtual COM Ports) while thinking it is connected serially. Various connection options are described here.

3.1 Connection Options Standard PCs do not support RS-485 network protocol, making some form of conversion is necessary. The most simple conversion is to RS-232, which is another serial protocol. The minor differences between the two can be resolved by means of a passive (no processor) hardware converter. In cases where the distances exceed those supported by RS-485 or RS-232, networking with a larger PC network is desired, or a serial port is not available, other protocols available are discussed in Sections 3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3 & 3.1.4.

3.1.1 RS-232 Serial Port The RS-232 is a serial communication protocol similar to RS-485. However, there are significant differences. A few of the differences are:

• RS-485 supports multi-drop (more than a pair of devices communicating), RS-232 does not

• RS-485 has a much longer range (4000ft, 1200m) than RS-232 (50ft, 15m)

• RS-485 has a much higher data rate (115.2kbps) than RS-232 (19.2kbps)

• RS-232 supports bi-directional simultaneous communication, also called full-duplex, whereas 2-wire RS-485 does not

• RS-232 is supported natively by most modern PCs, and therefore is supported by the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software

This last point is the reason RS-232 is useful for the Modbus communication network. The network itself operates on RS-485, but a conversion to RS-232 enables a PC to communicate with the network.

There is a simple RS-485 to RS-232 converter available (Caterpillar part number 240-0475, Figure 24). This converter is powered by the PC serial port, with an optional external power input. Connect as shown in Table 2.

(optional, see Figure 8 Note 1)

External 12VDC Source Ground (optional, see Note below)

External 12VDC Source Power (optional, see Note below)

The RS485 to RS232 converter also contains internal biasing, so using the EMCP 3 to bias the line as described in section 2.3.2 is not necessary if using this converter.

Note: Due to the limited power available from the PC serial port, if more than four devices are connected to the Modbus network, or if the length extends beyond 2000ft (600m), an external 12VDC power supply should be used to avoid data loss.

The converter is connected on one side to the RS-232 port (COM port) of the PC, and to the other side to the RS-485 network (Figure 25). A RS-232 cable can be used to extend the distance between the converter and PC by using a standard DB9 male-to-female cable (Figure 26). DB9 cables are limited in length to 50ft due to the limitations of RS-232, as described above.

3.1.2 Modem A remote communications network enables the users PC to dial in using a phone line connected to a modem wired to the Modbus network (Figure 27). The remote communication option is useful if the user’s PC is a long distance from the site (greater than 4000 ft) and analog phone lines are available.

The monitoring PC will need a modem (internal or external). The site being monitored will need a TD-36 Industrial Modem (Part No. 274-1979). This modem will be connected directly to the RS-485 Modbus network, so an RS-232/RS-485 converter is NOT needed for this connection.

The modem is capable of communicating either through the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), or a dedicated Leased Line (LL).

Modem Hardware Configuration Use the following steps to wire the modem to power, to the Modbus network, and to the phone line. See Figure 28 for connection points.

• Connect AC line power or DC battery power to the modem’s Power screw terminals. Terminal 1 is AC neutral or DC negative. Terminal 2 is AC line or DC positive.

• Connect the Modbus+ line from the Modbus network to the modem’s RS-485 connection T/R+ terminal.

• Connect the Modbus- line from the Modbus network to the modem’s RS-485 connection T/R- terminal.

• Phone line wiring:

• If using Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN): Connect a standard phone cord to the Line Connection (PSTN only) RJ-11 jack. Or if phone line does not have RJ-11 plug, wire in to Line Connection (PSTN or LL) screw terminals 1 and 2.

• If using a Leased Line (LL): Wire in to Line Connection (PSTN or LL) screw terminals.

Modem Software Configuration Modem configuration is done using DIP switches. Use the following steps:

• Set Baud Rate: Set S1 dip switch pins 1-4 according to desired baud rate ( Figure 29)

• Set Parity: Set S1 dip switch pins 5-8 according to desired parity ( Figure 30)

• Configure network type: Set S2 dip switch pin 3 ON and pin 4 OFF to enable 2-wire RS-485

• Set phone line speed: Set S4 dip switch pins 5-8 all to ON to auto-detect modem speed.

• Terminate the line: If the modem is at an end of the Modbus network, set S5 dip switch pins 1 and 2 to OFF and pins 3 and 4 to ON to enable RS-485 line termination.

For other configuration options, please refer to TD-36 Manual (see References).

3.1.3 Ethernet Many RS-485 to Ethernet gateway devices are available. A gateway can be placed on the Modbus network and connected to an Ethernet network. Elsewhere on the Ethernet network, a PC can connect to the gateway (usually by means of a static IP address) and assign a “virtual” serial (COM) port so the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software can communicate transparently with the network through the gateway. The basic architecture is shown in Figure 31.

While many products are available, features, configuration steps, and complexity can differ greatly from one to another. The steps to set up one particular gateway device, the i-7188EX-485 manufactured by ICP DAS, are given here. To set up other gateway products, please consult manufacturer documentation. Ethernet networks may differ necessitating assistance from the site’s network administrator.

Figure 32 shows an overview of the device.

Steps to configure the i-7188EX-485 device for remote communications over Ethernet (for more detail, see References):

1. Install the MiniOS7 utility and VxComm utility (to configure the gateway device’s Ethernet settings) on a setup PC that can be taken to the site.

2. Connect 24VDC power to the device’s Power connector.

3. Connect the device to the Modbus network by wiring in the RS-485 cable to the COM2 (RS-485) terminals. Modbus+ connects to D2+, Modbus- connects to D2-.

4. Use the RS-232 download cable to connect the setup PC to the device. Alternately, you may use an Ethernet hub and two Ethernet cables to connect the setup PC to the device.

5. Configure the device. If using RS-232, use the MiniOS7 utility. If using Ethernet, use VxComm utility. The minimum configuration necessary includes the IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway. All numbers may be obtained from the site’s network administrator. A static IP address may be required.

6. Disconnect the setup PC.

7. Install the VxComm utility (to map Ethernet data to a virtual COM port) on the remote monitoring PC.

8. Use the VxComm utility to configure and connect to the gateway device, using the IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway settings that were used in step 5.

Figure 31: Ethernet Communication

26 PC Setup


9. Use the VxComm utility to map the device to a virtual COM port.

10. Run the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software and configure the port settings for the virtual COM port configured in the previous step. See section 4.5 for configuring connection settings in the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software.

Detailed quick start instructions for this device, as well as user manuals and other documentation, are available at the manufacturer’s website (see References).

3.1.4 USB Port The Modbus network can be connected to the PC through a USB port. USB ports are now more common than RS-232 COM ports, making them a convenient communication method. RS-485 can be converted directly to USB, or an RS-485 to RS-232 converter can be used (section 3.1.1), followed by an RS-232 to USB converter (Caterpillar Part Number 237-7547 - Figure 33).

Figure 32: i-7188EX Ethernet Gateway Overview and Connections

PC Setup 27


The converter will automatically install the necessary drivers on Windows 2000 or XP. Following driver installation, the converter will install a virtual COM port which can be assigned in the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software.

38 Features - Control Panel


5 Features - Control Panel The Control Panel is a graphical interface that can be used to monitor and control the electric power system. The Control Panel can be organized by screens which can be navigated by tabs. The EMCP 3 Monitoring Software allows users to create new screens (tabs) and populating them with elements. Two default configuration files are provided with the software that have preconfigured control panels.

This chapter describes how to create a new Control Panel screen (Edit Control Panel) (Section 5.1) and how to use Control Panel screens (View Control Panel) (Section 5.2).

5.1 Creating a new Control Panel Screen The Control Panel consists of various elements spread across the screen. Some elements are assigned to specific Modbus data coming from (read) Modbus devices or going to (write) Modbus devices; these elements are called “controls”. Controls can be assigned to parameters. All Elements can have some display properties configured. All of the Elements supported by the EMCP 3 Monitoring Software are shown and described in Table 4.

Before configuring a view (screen), add a device to the network (section 4.6).

Note: Only a user with Administrator access or Power User access is allowed to configure views. A user with Normal User access is only able to use views and is not able to configure them. For example, a Normal User would not be able to use the “GRID DATA” view until an Administrator or Power User has initially configured it.

To open the Control Panel Configuration select “Control Panel Configuration” from the “Edit” menu. A user must have at least Power User access to open the configuration.

Adding an Element to the Control Panel To add an Element to the Control Panel Window, click on the icon in the toolbar (or select “Add Control” from the “Edit” menu) and double click on Control Panel in the desired location of the new Element.

Associating a Control with a Parameter If the Element is a Control, it must be associated with a parameter before it will function. To do this, right-click on the Control and select “Set Parameter Association”, choose the “Device/Group” which is to be monitored/controlled, select parameter to control by double clicking on the desired parameter within the “Parameter List”.

40 Features - Control Panel


NOTE: Highlighting the parameter on the left side is not sufficient. Verify the parameter name appears in the gray “Selected Parameter” box on the right, as shown in Figure 49. If the default is not adequate, change the update rate. Configuring a Control assigns a parameter to it and automatically sets its range based on the parameter range (if applicable).

Changing Element Display Properties Element display can be configured through the elements properties. To change an Element’s properties, right-click on the Element and select “Set Display Properties”. The properties of each Element are described in the User Guide (References).

Configuring Multiple Elements Multiple Elements can be selected by holding Ctrl and clicking (or Ctrl+A to select all Elements on the tab). Selecting multiple Elements of the same type (i.e. all Digital Displays) will allow their properties to be changed at the same time. Only changed properties will be affected and the first selected Element is used as the base.

5.2 Using the Control Panel Screen Control Panel View presents data via Controls. To open control panel data monitoring select

“Control Panel Data” from the “View” menu or use the associated toolbar button .

In this section, the “default.pvc” file will be used as an example. This file contains basic screens with standard parameters preconfigured (Figure 50). The user can modify the file and save as a new file if desired. To use the default configuration file:

• After Login select “Open” from the “File” menu

• Browse to folder “C:\Program Files\Caterpillar\EMCP3 Monitoring Software\Data

42 Features - Data Logging


6 Features - Data Logging Data available on a Modbus network can be logged over time. The data logging configuration specifies which parameters to log, when to start and stop the data logging process, the scan rate, and the file in which the data is logged.

The data logging process creates a file which contains a description of the parameters being logged and the logged data. If a filename is not specified in the configuration, the file that will be created is named using a timestamp when the data logging is armed. Example: Data logging armed on December 22, 2003 at 17:03:55 (5:03:55 PM) would be stored in file “12_22_2003_17_03_55.log” The date-based name is locale specific (i.e. mm-dd-yyyy or dd-mm-yyyy based on Windows regional settings).

Once the data logging file has been created, it can be converted to CSV format (.csv), to be used by third-party tools. The data logging file can automatically be converted to CSV format by setting “Convert binary file to CSV after data logging” in the data logging configuration (this is the default).

To convert a previously created data logging file (.bin format) to text (.txt) format, select “Convert Data File to CSV…” from the “Data Logging” menu and select the file to convert.

The current values of the parameters being logged can be found by viewing the data log data. To view the data log data, select “Data Log Data” from the “View” menu. The parameter values are only accurate while data is being logged.

6.1 Data Logging Configuration The Data Logging Configuration configures parameters available from a Modbus network for logging. It specifies which parameters to log, when to start and stop the data logging process, the scan rate, and the file in which the data is logged.

To open the Data Log Configuration select “Data Log Configuration” from the “Edit” menu, “Data Log Configuration” from the “Data Configuration” menu, or click on the associated toolbar button . A user must have at least Power User access to open the configuration.

6.1.1 Parameters To add a parameter to the Data Log, double-click the parameter on the Parameter List. Parameters can also be added by highlighting the parameter and clicking “Add”, or by dragging the parameter to the grid. To add all of the parameters in the selected group to the grid, click the “Add All” Button.

6.1.2 Triggering Configuration Data Logging Triggers control the start and stop of data logging. This is configured in the Triggering tab (Figure 52).

Features - Data Logging 43


The following types of start trigger are available:

• Immediately When Armed: Data logging will start immediately when it is armed.

• Absolute Time: Data logging will start at a particular time.

• On Engine Start Command: Data logging will start when the selected generator set receives a remote initiate command.

The following types of stop trigger are available:

• When Disarmed: Data logging will stop immediately when it is disarmed, or when the configured time has elapsed.

• Duration: Data logging will go for a specific time once it is started. Duration can be set in seconds, minutes, hours, or days.

• Absolute Time: Data logging will stop at a particular time.

• On Engine Stop Command: Data logging will stop when the selected generator set (must be the same as the generator set used to provide the start trigger) loses the remote initiate command.

Regardless of the trigger type, data logging will only start once it has been armed. Disarming data logging will stop the data logging.

Continuous Logging Mode When a Manual stop trigger is configured with Continuous Logging Mode enabled, data can be logged continuously. If Continuous Logging Mode is selected, the data logging process will continue beyond the configured elapsed time limit. When the logging continues beyond the elapsed time limit, the data stored at the beginning of the file is overwritten. The data logging process will stop after a Manual Stop trigger or data logging disarms.

For example, if 30 minutes is the elapsed time, the log file will contain data from the last 30 minutes, even if it has been logging for 5 hours.

Figure 52: EMCP 3 Monitoring Software Data Logging Trigger Configuration Dialog

44 Features - Data Logging


6.2 Logging Data In order to start the data logging process, data logging must be armed. To arm the data logging process select “Arm” from the “Data Configuration” menu or click on the associated toolbar

button . This creates the data logging file and waits for a trigger to start logging.

Once the trigger is activated, data will be logged to the file and a spinning disc icon will appear in the Network Tree. The data logging process will continue until the stop trigger occurs or data logging is disarmed. The “Stop Trigger” menu item also will manually stop data logging (which will also disarm data logging).

After data logging is complete, the binary file will be converted to ASCII format (based on preferences). The spinning disc icon will disappear.

6.3 Viewing Logged Data The current values of the parameters being logged can be found by viewing the data log data. To view the data log data, select “Data Log Data” from the “View” menu. The parameter values are only accurate while data is being logged.

Features - Grid View 45


7 Features - Grid View

7.1 Grid Configuration The Grid Configuration configures parameters available from the Modbus network to be displayed on a grid. To open the Grid Configuration select “Grid Configuration” from the “Edit” menu (Figure 53). A user must have at least Power User access to open the configuration.

The Parameter List contains all parameters for the currently selected device or group in the Device/Group tree. Writable parameters are marked with a '->' symbol.

To add a tab to the grid, click the “Add Tab” button and select a name for the tab. Up to 9 tabs can be supported. To remove a tab from the grid, select the desired tab and click the “Delete Tab” button. Tabs can be repositioned for display purposes. To reposition a tab, select the tab and click the “Move Tab Left” or “Move Tab Right” buttons.

To add a parameter to the grid, select the desired tab, and double-click the parameter on the Parameter List. Parameters can also be added by highlighting the parameter and clicking “Add”, or by dragging the parameter to the grid. To add all of the parameters in the selected group to the grid, click the “Add All” Button. To remove a parameter from the grid, select the parameter on the tab and click on the “Remove” button. To remove all of the parameters from the grid, select the “Remove All” button. To reposition parameters on the grid,, highlight a parameter and click the “Up” or “Down” buttons.

For easier readability, a blank can be inserted between parameters on a tab. To insert a blank, highlight a parameter on the grid and click the “Insert Blank” button. A blank row will appear above the parameter.

Parameters are added to the grid with the Default Scan Rate as the update rate. Once a parameter has been added to the grid, the update rate of the parameter can be changed. The minimum update

Figure 53: EMCP 3 Monitoring Software Grid Configuration Dialog

46 Features - Grid View


rate is 0.5 seconds. To improve performance, actual update rates may be lower than the configured rate with large numbers of monitored parameters.

7.2 Grid View Grid Data Monitoring presents data via a grid. The grid data window reflects the grid configuration – each parameter is on its configured tab.

To open grid data monitoring select “Grid Data” from the “View” menu or use the associated

toolbar button . Writable parameters will have a “Send” button in the “Send All” column. The Send button will be enabled when the write parameter is modified. Clicking “Send All” will send all modified writable parameters to their respective devices.

Features - Events 47


8 Features - Events The Event Configuration, Event Viewer, and Event Log Viewer make it easy to monitor and log EMCP events and desired pre-alarm parameter data. The software may also alert the user on events generated by EMCP controllers.

The Event Configuration lets a user configure the event monitoring system and pre-alarm data.

The Event Viewer displays the current events of all EMCP controllers. The Event Viewer can be configured to monitor all or some EMCP devices and perform alarm functions for monitored devices. Events can also be logged to a file using the setup in the “Event Configuration”.

The Event Log Viewer displays EMCP events logged to an event log file.

User Notification All devices display a red circle for current shutdown events and a yellow circle for warning events to the left of the device icon in the Network Tree. If an event type is configured for user notification, event notification will be displayed until the event viewer is shown (to verify that the event was seen).

Event Log File While events are being monitored, the filtered ones are being written to a log file. The log file has the same name as the configuration file, but with an .elg extension. If event monitoring is stopped and restarted, the log file just appends the new events to the end of the log file. The log file is in binary format, but can be converted to CSV (section 8.2).

8.1 Event Configuration The Event Configuration identifies which events will be logged to the event file. It also sets up pre-alarm data to monitor EMCP parameter data prior to an event.

To open the Event Configuration select “Event Log Configuration” from the “Events” menu or

click on the associated toolbar button . A user must have at least Power User access to open the configuration (Figure 54).

48 Features - Events


• The “General” tab specifies basic event configuration information.

• The “Filter” tab specifies which events to log.

• The “Pre-alarm Data Logging” tab specifies the pre-alarm data configuration. It has 3 sub-tabs:

o The Parameter tab specifies which parameters to log.

o The Triggering tab specifies the trigger to stop logging the pre-alarm data parameters.

o The Data Storage tab specifies where to log the pre-alarm data parameters and file preferences.

8.1.1 Event General Configuration The General tab in the event configuration configures basic event information.

Event monitoring rate – The rate that the Modbus network is scanned for new events.

Maximum log size - This is the maximum event log file size in KB. If “Overwrite oldest log entry” is selected, then the event log file will remain at a constant size and always have latest events. If “Do not overwrite log entries” is selected, event logging will stop when the maximum log file size is reached.

TIP: Each event takes 101 bytes. For example, storing 100 events will take approximately 10KB.

Display pop-up on user alert - If an event type is configured for user alert and this is checked, a message will appearing noting the new event happened. Otherwise, just the icon in the status bar will appear.

Figure 54: EMCP 3 Monitoring Software Event Configuration Dialog



8.1.2 Event Filter Configuration The Filter tab in the event configuration determines which events are logged and shown in the Event Viewer and whether or not to notify the user of them.

The Event Source grid is a list of the EMCP 3 devices on the network. If marked with an “X”, the EMCP will be monitored for events.

The Event Type grid is a list of all of the event types that can be monitored. If the first column is marked with an “X”, that event type will be logged. If the “User Alert” column is marked, then the user will be notified when a new event of this type occurs.

The Specific Events grid is for monitoring events with a specific suspect parameter number (SPN) and failure mode identifier (FMI). If the “User Alert” column is marked, then the user will be notified when a new event of this SPN and FMI occurs.

8.1.3 Pre-Alarm Data Logging The event monitoring system supports pre-alarm data logging. When event monitoring is active, data will be logged from a configurable list of parameters for a period of time before an event occurs. If an event doesn’t occur and event monitoring in made inactive, the log file is deleted.

Parameters Sub-Tab The Parameters sub-tab (Figure 55) allows a parameter or parameters to be added to the data log. Select a device or subgroup and then select a parameter in the parameter list and press Add, or press Add All to add all of the parameters in the parameter list.

Triggering Sub-Tab The Triggering sub-tab in the event configuration works similarly to the trigger tab in the data log configuration. Parameters that are configured will be logged for the elapsed time period, until the event trigger specified occurs.

Figure 55: EMCP 3 Monitoring Software Event Log Configuration Dialog



The pre-alarm data logging process will continue after the elapsed time limit has been reached and event trigger hasn’t occurred. When the logging continues beyond the elapsed time limit, the data is stored from the beginning of the file, writing over previously stored data at each multiple of the elapsed time limit. This way pre-alarm data logging will always contain the latest data collected during elapsed time just before the event trigger occurred.

Configuration of the pre-alarm data logging trigger requires:

1. Device: Desired EMCP controller that may generate the trigger event. The list also will include “(All)” in case if any device may generate the trigger event.

2. Trigger: The pre-alarm data logging trigger may be configurable as an event type (based on FMI), or as a specific event (based on SPN/FMI).

3. Elapsed time: The amount of time preceding the alarm that the data should be logged.

Data Storage Sub-Tab The Data Storage sub-tab behaves the same as it does in data logging, with the exception of the name of the timestamp file format – “Event” is prepended to the filename (for example, pre-alarm data taken on June 17 2008 at 9:28:16AM would be saved to a file named Event_06_17_2008_09_28_16.log).

8.2 Event Viewing The event viewer displays a list of all current events on the Modbus network. To access the Event Viewer, select “Events” from the “View” menu (Figure 56). The software must be online to access events.

The list of events can be sorted by any column by double-clicking on the column header.

Event Filtering By default, the Event Viewer is set up to monitoring all events on all devices. To monitor a particular device or a particular event type, select the respective Genset or Module and click the Apply button. This will clear the event list and only devices that pass the filter will be shown.

Figure 56: EMCP 3 Monitoring Software Event Monitoring View



Reset All Events The Reset All Event button will reset all active events currently being displayed. If an event filter is setup to only monitor certain event types, only those events will be reset.

Start Event Logging The Start Event Logging button will start event log monitoring. The events logged are based on the event configuration (section 8.1), not the event viewer filter.

8.3 Event Logging

8.3.1 Start/Stop Event Logging The Start Event Logging button in the Event Monitoring View will start event log monitoring. The events logged are based on the event configuration, not the event viewer filter.

8.3.2 View Event Log To view the Events log, access Event Log Viewer or access the Data Configuration menu and select “Open Data Folder in Explorer…” to locate a file in the data folder (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Caterpillar\EMCP3 Monitoring Software\Data), with a file name that is the same as the configuration file name (shown in the title bar), but with a .cvs extension (e.g “default System.cvs”).

The Event Log Viewer (Figure 57) displays the current event log or can be used to display previously logged event files. To access the Event Log Viewer, select “Log Viewer…” from the Events menu. By default the current event log file is displayed if events are being logged.

The events listed have unique SPN/FMI combinations and only list the latest occurrence count and timestamp. The list of events can be sorted by any column by double-clicking on the column header.

Events in the log file may contain a filtered subset of events from the EMCP 3 devices which can be filtered. Select “Filter…” from the “Event Log” menu (or right-click and select “Filter…” For more information see Event Log Viewer Filter.

To find a specific event, right-click on the event viewer and select “Find…” (or select “Find” from the “Event Log” menu). Events can be searched by source, SPN, FMI, or a partial event name. Specifying “(All)” for the Event Source will find an event log entry matching the SPN/FMI from any EMCP in the log file. Only criteria with a checked filter box will be used in finding an event.

Event log files are stored in a binary format. An event log file can be converted to a comma separated value (CSV) file format from the Event Log Viewer by right-clicking and selecting

Figure 57: EMCP 3 Monitoring Software Event Log Viewer



“Convert log file to CSV” from the menu. An event log file can also be converted to a CSV file by selecting “Convert Event log file to CSV” from the Events menu. The CSV format is readable by various external applications, such as Microsoft Excel.

The format of the file is as follows:

• First line - name of the corresponding configuration file

• Second line – Number of written events

• Third (and beyond) – the events logged

Each event is written in the following format: [Date],[Time],[Event Name],[Source Device],[FMI],[SPN],[Number of Occurrences],[Hour Meter]

For example, Engine Overspeed Shutdown event from an EMCP 3 named “Gen” at address 5 will be logged to the file as: 02/18/2004,19:55:01, Engine Overspeed Shutdown,Eng[5],0,190,1,15

8.4 Event Log Viewer Filter Event logs can be configured to only contain certain events. The Event Log Viewer Filter (Figure 58) allows further filtering of an existing event log.

Events can be further filtered by:

1. Event source (EMCP)

2. Event type (based on FMI)

3. Timestamp of the event

To access the Event Log Viewer Filter, right-click on Event Log Viewer and select “Filter…” from the “Event Log Viewer” menu.



Only EMCP 3 devices marked with an “X” will be shown in the Event Log Viewer. Only “Event Types” (based on FMI) marked with an “X” will be shown in the Event Log Viewer (if such type of events are contained in the log file).

Events can also be filtered by desired date and time interval.

The “From:” setting determines where to begin the selection of events. The “First Event” selection will select events beginning from the first one in the log. The “Events On” selection will select events beginning from the date and time entered by the user in the next two entries.

The “To:” setting determines where to stop the selection of events. The “Last Alarm” selection will select events to the last one in the log. The “Alarms On” selection will select events until the date and time entered by the user in the next two entries.

To reset the filter and show the entire log file, select “Reset Filter” from the “Event Log Viewer” menu.

56 Features - Charting Data


Parameters are added to the grid with the Default Scan Rate (in milliseconds) as the update rate with a predefined minimum and maximum value. Once a parameter has been added to the graph, the information about the parameter can be changed. The minimum update rate is 50 milliseconds. Actual update rate may be slower depending upon the number of monitored parameters, network baud rate, etc. The min and max are the range applied to the graph. The width is the pen width used to draw the parameter data in the line graph. The color is the color of the parameter data line draw on the graph.

10.2 Chart Data View Chart Data Monitoring presents parameter data via an X-Y plot. To open chart data monitoring select “Chart Data” from the “View” menu or by using the associated toolbar button.

The chart window (Figure 62) reflects the chart configuration – each parameter added to a single graph (a tab on the Chart Configuration) is shown together on one graph.

Chart Monitoring is started when the window is opened. It can be stopped (paused) and restarted

by clicking the Start/Stop event logging button . Chart data can also be rescaled (zoomed) and printed.
