These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures; – Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna – Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver – Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected – Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician WARNING: No party shall make any modifications or changes to product circuitry without the express written consent of Invensys Metering Systems. Doing so could result in the equipment becoming non-compliant with the requirements of the Federal Communication Commission Rules CFR47 Part 15 and could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Note: To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements in section 1.1307, a minimum separation distance of 20 cm (8 inches) is required between the antenna and all persons. Invensys Metering Systems Page 3 of 7 Test Plan Introduction This document contains instructions for setting up communication between multiple Robert Shaw radios for testing purposes, and describes the use of the InvenStack test software. 1 Setup Procedures 1. Connect the radio to the RS232 interface/control board via the 10 pin connectors with a ribbon cable as shown in the photograph fig 1. Make sure that pin 1 on the interface board is connected to pin 1 on the radio (both are near the edge of the board). The interface board provides voltage level shifting between the PC and the radio board. 2. Connect the interface board to a PC via a standard RS232 cable. 3. Provide 3.3V DC (limit to 80mA per radio) to the interface board at the connections shown in the photograph fig 1. Current draw at 3.3V in on power-up should be about 30mA per radio. Rese fig. 1 – Serial comm. and power connections 4. Start the InvenStack test application (start one for each radio) on the PC (screenshot fig. 2). Set up serial communication with the radio in the Com menu. 5. Set up the Filter Type, PanID and Local Address under the DLME tab. See fig. 2 below. Invensys Metering Systems Page 4 of 7 Test Plan fig 2. Setting up PanID and Local Address in DLME tab 6. Set up the log file if desired in the logging menu. 7. Under the FileMessages tab, browse to select individual files or batch files to run to begin sending messages between radios. Each file contains a command, the batch files can be used to loop or send consecutive commands with a userdetermined delay between each. 2 Example The text below is from the message file DL_DATA_REQUEST_ACK_1.TXT. This will send a DL_DATA_request command. This will result in a DL_DATA_confirm from the InvenStack on the sending radio. This DL_DATA_confirm on the sending radio will indicate if the message was successfully transmitted. If AckMode is set to ACK_MONITORING (on) in the DL_DATA_request message, then a success in that confirm indicates that the RF ACK was received from the intended recipient of the message. The message contains the sample Lsdu data 01 02 03 04 05. All radios within range will receive the message. On all those with Filter Type NONE an Indication will result. On all those with Filter Type PAN ID, an Indication will result if the radios’ PanID matches that in the message (0x0001). On all those with Filter Type set to LOCAL ADDR, and Indication will result if the radios’ LocalAddress matches that in the message (0x02). On all those with Filter Type PAN AND LOCAL, an Indication will result only if both the PanID and LocalAddress of the radio matches the message. Regardless of the filter setting, an ACK will be generated by the receiving radio if and only if both the PanID and LocalAddress in Invensys Metering Systems Page 5 of 7 Test Plan the received message match those set in the receiving radio. The original sender will accept that ACK generated by the receiving radio if and only if the SrcPanID and SrcAddr in the original message are correct. Below are a few steps that can be followed to verify proper communication and a couple of screenshots that show the resulting messages in the test applications message windows. The file DL_DATA_REQUEST_ACK_1.TXT contains the following text. In the screenshot in fig. 3, this message has just been sent out and can be seen on the third line in the message window. / This is a test Output File #1 0x0D 0x12 // Length of remaining bytes including CRC 0x0B // DL Data Request 0x01 // Src Addr mode = 8 0x00 0x01 // Pan Id = 0x0001 0x01 // Src Addr 0x01 // Dest Addr Mode = 8 0x00 0x01 // Dest Pan ID = 0x0001 0x02 // Dest ID = 2 0x05 // Lsdu Length 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0x05 0x01 // Ack Monitoring (on) CRCMSB //CRC PlaceHolders CRCLSB Steps to verify communication between two radios: 1. Connect both radios to RS232 interface boards and power as described above. 2. Power on both radios. 3. Start the test application for each radio. 4. Set the Filter Type, PanID and Local Address for both radios. For a simple test use PanID 0x0001 and Local Address 0x01 for the sending radio and PanID 0x0001 and Local Address 0x02 for the receiving radio and send the file above which matches these settings. 5. Sending the file DL_DATA_REQUEST_ACK_1.TXT above should result in a DL_DATA_confirm showing 0xF0 DL_SUCCESS on the sending radio and an Indication on the receiving radio (see fig. 4 below). Since AckMode is set to ACK_MONITORING (0x01) in the message, this confirms that the RF ACK was successful. The message windows on the test apps used should look like the screenshots below.
