IE/WSN-PA Link Operating Instructions, Release 02/2010, C79000-G8976-C240-02 13 Network structures 33.1 Setting up network structures Note To make optimum use of the WirelessHART network, a site survey of the WSN network under local conditions is a must. Where possible, mount the Link or the external antenna of the Link at a location where a connection to several WirelessHART devices is possible. To achieve ideal illumination, we recommend that each network node should have at least two neighbors. Overview This chapter discusses ways to ensure good performance and security in the WirelessHART network. After commissioning the network, the connections should be checked and choke points in the network eliminated. If expansions to the network become necessary, they increase the span and reliability of the network. This chapter lays out guidelines to increase and ensure the security of the network. Verify connections A good connection should have the following characteristics: ● Data reliability > 99% ● Data latency < 3 times the update rate ● Battery life > desired life span at fastest update rate. Note the information from the field device vendor. ● The Radio Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) in the Link diagnostics is helpful. This check is listed last because it can be misleading on its own (weak signals can still get through if the path is stable), but it can help to identify a problems when they arise. Choke points in the network Next, identify choke points in the network. If messages from several devices all have to pass through a single device on their way to the Link, this may lead to a choke point in the available bandwidth. This does not happen often because of the redundant communication paths in most self-organizing networks. The solution is simply to add additional devices near the device that represents the choke point to provide more communication paths.
Network structures 3.1 Setting up network structures IE/WSN-PA Link 14 Operating Instructions, Release 02/2010, C79000-G8976-C240-02 Note Identification of choke points in the network should be performed 24 hours after all the devices have joined the network. This will allow the network to stabilize and optimize itself. Impenetrables A typical plant includes plenty of potential impenetrables, such as buildings, dense piping, concrete walls and long distances. The diagram below shows how impenetrables affect signal strength. Fig. 3-1 At any layer, increasing distance can also weaken signals. In general, if impenetrables disrupt direct transmission between WirelessHART sensors, simply add additional devices to provide alternative communication paths around the obstacle. Expanding the network The network itself senses that a device has joined the network and routing algorithms in the devices and Link automatically find the best path to the destination. The only limitation is the amount of traffic that can be handled by each Link and by the devices. This capability makes not only large-scale additions easy, but also allows the addition of single devices to meet short-term needs. You can even install a device temporarily to find out whether a permanent installation would make an improvement. Note Depending on the size of the network and the number of nodes, adding a node may take several minutes.

Role (login) HTML access Executive (exec) Read access to configuration pages Operator (oper) Read access to configuration pages Maintenance (maint)  Can set device tags  Can configure Modbus communications  Can configure Modbus register map Administrator (admin)  Can configure network settings (address, default)  Can set passwords  Can set time settings  Can set home page options  Can restart applications These passwords should be changed periodically once the network is installed. Consult your local IT personnel or your network administrator for guidance on changing passwords. Note The factory-set password for all user roles is: default Network ID and join key The network ID and the join key must be identical on the Link and on the field devices to allow a connection to be established between them. The IE/WSN-PA Link can generate a random join key, or you can create your own custom join key made up of hexadecimal characters.
Commissioning, configuration and diagnostics 4.2 Commissioning the Link IE/WSN-PA Link 16 Operating Instructions, Release 02/2010, C79000-G8976-C240-02 4.2 Commissioning the Link Note Order of powering up The power supply of the WirelessHART field devices should not be turned on before the IE/WSN-PA Link is installed and working correctly. WirelessHART field devices should be powered up in the order of their distance to the IE/WSN-PA Link starting with the nearest device to the Link. This strategy will allow the wireless sensor network to form faster. 4.2.1 36BThe configuration PC Connecting the configuration PC The PC/laptop must be connected to the LAN connector P1 of the IE/WSN-PA Link using a crossover cable.

Examples illustrate the mapping of device status values as integer registers or as discrete registers and the mapping of process and status values is described. Device tags for Modbus mapping The Link provides numerous parameters for mapping to Modbus RTU/TCP and OPC. Both the OPC interface used for mapping and the Modbus interface contain only some of the data points used most frequently to accelerate the user interface. Mapping the additional device status and standardized status to Modbus registers The additional and the standardized status of a device can be mapped to Modbus registers in two ways. On the one hand, you can map to standard integer analog input registers. On the other, you can map the individual bits to the relevant bytes of registers for discrete inputs. The parameter tags for these bits are ADDITIONAL_STATUS_0 – ADDITIONAL_STATUS_N, where N depends on the number of status bytes supported by the device and on STANDARDIZED_STATUS_0 – STANDARDIZED_STATUS_3. Other status tags such as EXTENDED_STATUS (Maintenance required, Device variable alert) and STATUS_CODE (Device malfunction, Cold start) are also available. The bit masks required to map individual status bits to discrete Modbus registers can be found in the "HART Common Tables" specification or in the documentation of the particular field device. The standard parameter mapping "DEVICE_TAG.PARAMETER" is used for the Link. For this reason, the device tag must first be specified before correct register mapping is possible. When mapping discrete registers, the "State" field (see Fig. 200H4-2) is also used to enter the bit mask that is applied to the parameter and that generates the discrete value. The "Invert" field (see Fig. 201H4-2) is used to invert the bit (conversion 0 → 1 and 1 → 0), as may be required by the logic of the user program.

This corresponds to the bit for "simulation active" of STANDARDIZED_STATUS_0. Other single status bits can be mapped to registers for discrete inputs in the same way. Fig. 203H4-3 shows an example of a Modbus client that reads the discrete inputs of the "STANDARDIZED_STATUS_0" status (simulation active). Fig. 4-3 Example of a Modbus client that reads a discrete input Dynamic device variables and device status The dynamic variables and the status of a device can also be mapped to Modbus registers. Here, the status of the dynamic variables can be mapped to an analog input register or to an analog holding register. The floating-point value of the dynamic variables can either be mapped as a floating-point value to two analog holding registers at the same time or using

There is also an option of mapping the variable status mixed with the floating-point values or separate from them to another register section such as the registers for analog inputs. You will find an example of this in Fig. 204H4-2. This option allows maximum flexibility for the different register mappings of host systems. Fig. 205H4-4 shows an example of a Modbus RTU client, that first reads out a mixed register map of floating-point values of a dynamic variable followed by the status value etc. Fig. 4-4 Example of a Modbus client that reads the variables "PV" and "PV_STATUS" Here, the standard parameter mapping "DEVICE_TAG.PARAMETER" of the Link is used. For this reason, the device tag must first be specified before correct register mapping is possible. The default dynamic variables for floating-point values are PV, SV, TV and QV. The device variables can, however, also be mapped according to the variable number. These are followed by the status values as PV_STATUS, SV_STATUS, TV_STATUS and QV_STATUS. These values are unsigned single byte values and they must be mapped to a single analog input register or a single analog holding register.

IE/WSN-PA Link Operating Instructions, Release 02/2010, C79000-G8976-C240-02 57 Biological compatibility AA.1 Biological compatibility of the Link Electromagnetic fields and health The independent German Commission on Radiological Protection was commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment to determine the possible thermal and non-thermal dangers posed by electromagnetic fields in the range from 0 Hz to 300 GHz according to current scientific knowledge and came to the following conclusion in issue 29 (see 216HReferences): "The German Commission on Radiological Protection concludes that according to the latest scientific literature no new scientific research is available with respect to proven health hazards which would throw doubt upon the scientific evaluation which serves as the basis for the ICNIRP safety concepts and the recommendations of the EU commission." The SSK also concludes that below the current limit values, these is also no scientific suspicion of health risks. This assessment agrees with those of other national and international scientific commissions and of the WHO (92Hwww.who.int/emf). Accordingly and in view of the fact that WirelessHART devices are significantly below the scientifically established limit values, it can be assumed that there are no health risks from the electromagnetic fields of WirelessHART products.
