Overview The communication unit MCOM (Merge/diverge Communication Modem) meet the requirements of FCC Part15 Subpart C. The FCC ID is as follows. FCC ID of MCOM: ZBQVEHICLEMCOM  1) Power line communication MCOM is used for the communication between vehicle and the ground vehicle controller in the transport system.    The communication signals are overlaid onto the power line for non-contact power supply to the vehicles. In some systems, a separate signal lines may be used.  The communication unit CMC (Communication Modem Controller) is the groundside communication unit. CMC is used for the communication between the groundside vehicle controller and several vehicles.   CMC meet the requirements of FCC Part15 Subpart C. The FCC ID is as follows. FCC ID of CMC: ZBQVEHICLECMC  MCOM modulate the signals sent from the vehicle and receive the modulated signals from the ground vehicle controller. MCOM also demodulate the signals sent from the groundside vehicle controller and transmit them to the ground vehicle controller.  The communication method in use is 2 levels FSK (frequency shift keying). The communication frequencies are as follows.         From    to    Frequency (1)  CMC  →  MCOM:  300.33 kHz   (2)  MCOM→  CMC:  353.25 kHz    2) Induction line communication MCOM is used for the communication between vehicle and other Vehicle in the transport system.  MCOM outputs the detection signal of one bit in the controller when the existence of the signal which other vehicle transmitted.    An Induction line is installed on both sides of the track. Therefore one transformer and circuit are each right and left, and they are equal. It can be changed if one transformer is used for the reception or it is used for the transmission. A left-right IND-TR is combined with the loop line, and it can watch each other's transmitting signal. Then, a trouble such as the breakage of the transformer can be diagnosed.    The communication method in use is Adoption of On Off Keying Method. The communication frequencies are 88.8kHz.

Outline 7 Muratec Automation Co., Ltd.   3.3. Function of each unit Fig. 2 shows the block diagram of M-COM4. In addition, the MCOM unit may vary in its outward form depending on the transport system. However, the internal configuration is common.    All units are connected by the cable.  3.3.1. M-COM4 (Printed circuit board ) M-COM4 is a print board with two communication functions, power line communication and induction line communication.  Fig. 3 shows the outward form of the printed circuit board M-COM4.  1) Power line communication M-COM4 board is an interface unit to handle the signals from/to the groundside vehicle controller. A signal is transmitted and received by the order of the controller. This is a modem unit to handle the signals from/to the groundside vehicle controller. It incorporates a driver that modulates the digital signals sent from the controller to analog signals and overlay the converted signals onto the non-contact power supply line or signal line. It also demodulates the analog signals sent from the groundside vehicle controller to digital signals and transmit them to controller.  2) Induction line communication M-COM4 board is an interface unit to handle the signals from/to the other vehicles. A signal is transmitted and received by the order of the controller.   This is a modem unit to handle the signals from/to the other vehicles. It incorporates a driver that modulates the digital signals sent from the controller to analog signals and overlay the converted signals onto the induction line. It also demodulates the analog signals sent from the other vehicles to digital signals and transmit them to controller.  The receiving circuit and the transmitting circuit are prepared by the set to the induction coil on either side. It can change whether a receiving circuit is connected or a transmitting circuit is connected with the setting signal from the controller to a right-and-left IND-TR. Intermittent sending of the 88.88kHz digital signal is carried out from the signal generating circuit, and a transmitted signal is amplified with transmitting amplifier, and is transmitted with a coil. The capacitor for resonance is connected to a coil in series, and voltage amplification of the 88.88kHz is carried out alternatively. A receiving circuit converts into a pulse signal the modulation signal received with the receiving coil, and counts the number of pulses by the signal detector. If it becomes beyond a value with the number of counts, it will be considered that other vehicles were detected.

Control/modulating of communication 3.5.1. Power line communication Control/modulating of communication use the connector CN30. A communication-timing chart is shown in the Fig. 6. Please control signal according to the communication chart shown in Fig. 6. In addition, all the signals are TTL-Level.  RTS CTS TXD RXD Carrier 200usec Min. 833usec 533usec MMMM----COM4COM4COM4COM4    DATA DATA Please prepare the waiting time for 833 seconds or more with the software by the side of ATI. When  you  finish  transmitting data,  please  disable  a  signal  of RTS  for  reception  of  the  following data. Since  the  mask of reception  on  an M-COM4   board is covered for 200usec after RTS becomes disable. When you transmit a signal, enable an RTS signal. RX Ready (MASK) Note. Signal of “Carrier” and “RX Ready(MASK)” are internal signals of the M-COM2 board. From the groundside vhicle controller     Fig. 6 Power net line communication-timing chart of MCOM
Outline 13 Muratec Automation Co., Ltd.   1) The 533usec delay circuit is the circuit to guarantee, from the time that a request-to-send signal (RTS) outputted from the controller is generated, to the time that a transmitting circuit attains to the rated value. Time is up in 533usec after RTS was set to ON, and a clear-to-send signal (CTS) returns to controller.  2) The 200-μsec Delay circuit masks transmitted signal during the time from the end of the request-to-send (RTS) till the lapse of transmitted signal against received signal, as the enabled transmitted signal may affect receiving circuit, Resulting in erratic output. This delay circuit times out in 200μsec after the RTS is ended.    3) After receiving data from the groundside vehicle controller, please prepare the waiting time for 833 seconds or more with the software by the side of ATI. When fewer than this time, it is because a NBV-BC substrate cannot receive data.   3.5.2. Induction line communication Control/modulating of communication use the connector CN39. A communication-Logic table is shown in the Table. 2. Please control signal according to the communication table shown in Table. 2. In addition, all the signals are TTL-Level.  For example, when you want to transmit from a left IND-TR and to receive from a right IND-TR, please make a signal into   Table. 1  Table. 1      Signal status (transmit: left IND-TR, receive: right IND-TR) CN39 pin Signal name  Direction  signal 1  L  Input  L 2  R  Input  H 3  LON  Input  L 4  RON  Input  X   When M-COM4 breaks down, the breakdown signal is output. Breakdown signals are 10 pins of CN39.   The detection of the breakdown by feeds back the transmission signal of 88.8kHz to the reception circuit, checks, and when the signal cannot be received though it transmits, is breakdown output.   The main content to break down is disconnected IND-TR, and is a breakdown of M-COM4 internal circuit, etc. The pulse signal that always repeats ON/OFF of each 30msec from 9 pins of CN39 is output. The controller can confirm whether the M-COM4 circuit operates by observing this signal.

Check the settings for the Controller. Are the power indicator lights of M-COM4 illuminated? Is the power supply of DC24V,5V and  ±12V connected? Turn the power supply OFF. Is the input resistance of the DC power   almost 0 ohm?     Replace the DC power supply. Is the connection between the controller and M-COM4 normal?     Restore connection. Is the connection between the IND-TR and M-COM4 normal?     Restore connection. Isn't the source of a noise that emits 100kHz near IND-TR?       Remove the source of a noise.   Doesn't it disconnect a induction line?     Restore disconnection of a guidance line.
  Cautions  on  use 18 Muratec Automation Co., Ltd. 6.  Cautions on Use (1) If the noise of a power net line is large, since communication quality will deteriorate, please reduce a noise.  (2) When the noise generation source near 100kHz is in near, in order that induction line communication may cause incorrect detection, please remove a noise generation source.  (3) Don't arrange a choke coil and a power system switching circuit near the IND-TR.    (4) Since the pulse signal of a self-vehicle and other vehicles may synchronize, please be sure to perform a pulse output timing change to different timing for every cart during transmission from the exterior in induction line communication..  (5) If the communication signals are overlaid onto the non-conductive power line, also shut off the power source of the non-conductive power line before starting maintenance on MCOM.
