MODEM COMMUNICATION TO ABB RELAYS

Example 4 – Connection of a REL512 ASCII Serial Port 2 (Rear Port) to
Hyperterminal Software
The REL512 has settings capabilities configurable and viewable via its rear com port (which is a DTE
RS232 port). Any dumb terminal emulator is able to connect to the rear port and synchronize with the
unit to allow visualization of the REL512 parameters. Within this example, two US Robotic model 002806
(V.EVERYTHING modem using trellis technology encoding [which differs from the QAM encoding]). As
illustrated in Figure 43, the modems are configured via a point to point connection. The REL512 ASCII
protocol is not addressable and therefore cannot be multi-dropped unless port switch devices are added
to the system. The steps to establish communications are:
1.
Connect the correct cable between the REL512 SERIAL 2 port and the modem.
2.
Connect the correct cable between the PC executing the HYPERTERMINAL program (in this
case the operating system used is Windows 95).
3.
Parameterize the REL512 rear port communication parameters.
4.
Set the jumpers internal to the relay for correct RS 232 port configuration
5.
Configure and set HYPERTERMINAL settings.
6.
Parameterize each US Robotics modem using its particular AT command set.
7.
Execute the connectivity procedure to establish communications.
As illustrated in Figure 42, the topology of the REL512 interconnection with the HYPERTERMINAL
software is illustrated. Please note on the diagram, the appropriate cables used to connect the device. In
this example, handshaking will be used to provide coordination between the modems. The US Robotic
modems allow Carrier Loss Redial capability along with dial back security capability. Although these
features will not be configured and examined in this rudimentary application note, the RS232
handshaking features will be set up to its fullest capability to allow addition (and reliability in operation) of
these capabilities at a later date.
