OpenBSI
Simply Creative
Emerson’s OpenBSI (Open Bristol System Interface) is a set of network setup, communication diagnostic, and data viewing utilities that provide access
to ControlWave controllers, flow computers and
RTUs. OpenBSI is the only product available in the
industry to bring such unique functionality and ease
of use to the network level. At the core is the communication interface, written as a Windows communication server API through which other client
applications communicate with the Bristol networks.
OpenBSI supports both serial BSAP protocol
and Ethernet Internet Protocol communication to
ControlWave controllers, flow computers and RTUs.
OpenBSI Utilities
Above this communication layer are a group of applications known as OpenBSI Utilities. These client
utilities communicate through the server to collect
and manage data gathered from the network, generate files based on collected historical data, collect
alarms, and monitor and control OpenBSI communications.

NetView is the basic configuration and application
interface for all network operations. NetView uses
a tree structure for network graphical display in the
Windows Explorer style. Network nodes can be
added on-line by simply dragging the node Icon into
the tree. This invokes a configuration Wizard simplifying network setup. Through the NetView Wizard,
the necessary network parameters are entered for
node and IP address, alarm and message routing,
and network communication media. Once configured, selecting any node allows direct access to the
common OpenBSI utilities to reprogram, download a
new application to the node, review communication
statistics, view real-time data through DataViewer,
and edit controller/RTU properties.
Local Configuration Wizard allows local communication with any attached ControlWave controller
or RTU to download system flashware upgrades,
configure cold download parameters, and configure
IP and soft-switch parameters.
DataView is an on-line utility used to collect and
display several types of process data, including signal values, data array values, signal lists, and audit
trail information.
Operators have the ability to alter signal values.
Multiple DataView windows may be open simultaneously.

control community. OPC allows the engineer to
select best in class hardware and software with confidence in their interoperability. Our OpenBSI OPC
Server was among the first to comply with the OPC
Foundation alarm and event server specification.

Historical Data Collection
High Historical Data Integrity
The ControlWave Historical Data Collection system offers exceptional historical data integrity by
providing time-stamped historical data storage in
ControlWave flash memory. The historical data
is collected, through OpenBSI on a scheduled or
demand basis and converted to .CSV and ODBC
compliant file formats for use in spreadsheets and
reports. If data is missed due to a communication
failure, it is collected when the communication is
reestablished and the PC historical database is
backfilled with the missing data. This distributed historical database architecture provides the greatest
data reliability and integrity during communication or
PC failure.

is extremely useful in providing an event trail during
communication or PC downtime or other system
problem.

By embracing the open system network technologies available through TCP/IP, Ethernet, OPC, and
Microsoft DNA, as well as pseudo standards such
as Modbus and Open Modbus, ControlWave can
provide a total Process Automation Management
Solution for in-plant LAN based networks and Wide
Area Network SCADA systems.

Communication Protocols
Like all of Emerson’s Bristol products, ControlWave
supports BSAP (Bristol Standard Asynchronous
Protocol), Modbus, DFI, CIP, DNP3, and serial
ASCII as standard functions.
These protocols are implemented in Flashware so
no additional hardware is required to use any one or
a combination of all protocols.
BSAP Protocol
BSAP - BSAP is widely accepted as providing exceptional data integrity and greatly simplifies communication between controllers. BSAP is provided
with interfaces for Master/Slave, vertical networks,
and Client/Server, horizontal networks. In either
case, variable lists are created in each controller
that are easily passed from server to client or slave
to master.
BSAP meets the definition of an industry-standard,
open architecture protocol because if conforms to
ISO standards 2629, 1745 and 2111, it is not proprietary in that Emerson does not charge a license fee
and makes the protocol and documentation available to anyone.
While BSAP is an open protocol, the added functionality of the messages provide much more capability than is found in other networks.

either the primary or a secondary offering in many
measurement and control related products. Even
with its common use, Modbus protocol actually
has many variations. Consider Modbus RTU and
Modbus ASCII, Master & Slave, Serial and TCP/IP
Open Modbus. In addition there are considerations
regarding supported function codes, floating point
values and byte order. Bristol products support the
following:
•

Modbus serial and TCP/IP Open Modbus 		
(Ethernet)

•

Master and Slave

•

Modbus RTU and ASCII

•

Modes 1 - 7, 8, 15 & 16

•

IP modes 51, 52 & 53

•

Integer and IEEE 4 byte floating point

Generic Serial Interface
The Generic Serial Interface is a user programmable Master and Slave protocol used to send and
receive messages typically with third party serial
ASCII devices. This protocol can be used to interface with such devices and message boards, card
readers and many measurement devices.
Multi-user Security Access
Security is an essential element of any open
system, particularly those with Internet access.
ControlWave employs a User Name/Password access system protected by a 56-bit encryption technique through the TCP connection. There can be up
to thirty-two users, who sign-in using their name and
password. Both the name and the password can be
up to sixteen characters.
The security system provides for up to sixty-four
access rights to read and write data values and files
via FTP, access and configure historical and audit
data information, edit configuration, run internal
diagnostics, read and reset system status. It further
allows the programming software to read, write and
download the ControlWave.

The Secure Data Advantage

The Bridge Between Systems

ControlWave sets a new standard for providing intelligent control at the point where control is needed.
Whether you need control on the plant floor or at a
remote site in the “middle of nowhere” ControlWave
is the solution for control, communication and
secure data to help you make the right operating
decisions.

Continuing our tradition of introducing innovative
new solutions while maintaining compatibility with
existing systems, Emerson again provides a migration path for existing customers by bridging the new
ControlWave system with Network 3000 systems
already in place. The network bridge is enabled
by employing the open architecture technologies
afforded by TCP/IP and OPC in both networks.
TCP/IP allows seamless Ethernet connectivity to
both networks as well as the corporate Intranet so
both ControlWave and Network 3000 controllers
can reside and communicate on the same LAN.
Emerson’s Bristol OpenBSI OPC Server facilitates
the merging of the two networks for technical, engineering and operator data access. The data source,
configuration and path are completely transparent to
the OPC client. Real-time data can also be passed
between the two communication networks making
this a total Plant Automation Management Solution.

ControlWave was designed to provide the optimum
level of data security using a distributed database
architecture. All data including time & date stamped
alarms, alarm limits, and historical data are stored
locally in each industrially rugged ControlWave,
thereby distributing your data integrity risk. To
further ensure that the data is always current and
historically accurate, the historical data is stored
in non-volatile flash memory within ControlWave.
Historical data is even maintained during and after
program downloading.
When historical data is collected from ControlWave,
it is converted and appended to .CSV and/or ODBC
compliant databases but does not destroy the original historical data stored in ControlWave, thus providing a flexible and secure historical data system
that is clearly recognized as a benefit to virtually
every industrial application.
