▪ EMIC/MBA is master, meters are slaves. ▪ Trend TWP3/TWP20 converters have straight-through RS232 connections as shown. Some
converters may require RX/TX crossover. ▪ Use standard 2-wire telephone cable to wire the bus.
Note: Ensure meters are configured with Comms setting, as described in section 3.2 step 10.3. Each meter should be set up with a unique M-Bus primary address (slave address), as described in section 3.2 step 8.4.
These instructions rely on the EMIC being set to defaults; if not the address and login may have to change, also if DHCP has been enabled the EMIC may have to be accessed by its hostname. EMIC IPTool (available from Trend Partnernet website) can be used if the IP address is unknown.

Note that if the User name or Password have been forgotten a default password may be obtained from Trend Technical Support using the process described in the EMIC Engineering Manual TE201084
a. Host name: set up if DHCP enabled as in step e. (15 characters maximum).b.IPaddress:changedtofixedIPaddresson network where EMIC installed
c. Subnet mask: change to suit network where EMIC is installed
d. Default gateway: IP address of default router on same subnet as EMIC
e. DHCP enabled: select this if auto IP addressing (DHCP) required.
f. Select Set and reboot: save changes and restart EMIC
Enter the new IP address in browser as in 3.2 step 1.3 above (or set hostname if DHCP enabled) and enter user name and password as in 3.2 step 1.4 above
a. Enter outstation device address. This must be unique on the internetwork.
(range 1 to 119 excluding 2, 3, 10)
b. Select + to add the outstation.
c. Repeat a/b above to create an outstation for each meter
3 Set up Lan
a. Enter Lan number of this Lan. This must be unique on the internetwork.
(range 1 to 119 excluding 2, 3, 10)
b. Select Set to save value
a. Set up Human GUID and Machine GUID to be the same as the other Trend alarm producing devices (e.g. IQ3s, EMICs) on the site. If IQ3s also on site use GUIDs copied from SET.
a Select slave number, (primary address of meter on M-BUS, 1 to 249)Note that the meter’s primary address may have to be set up. (e.g for Trend HMM all meters have primary address of 1 with secondary address printed on label; use utility software to access meter using secondary address and to change primary address).
b Select meter type (e.g. Trend HMM)
c Select virtual outstation as created in 3.2 step 5.2
a For Trend Lan Alarms: Ensure Use IP Alarms (unchecked) 1. Set Alarm Address (range 1 - 119 excluding 2,3,10) 2. Set Remote Lan (range 1 - 119 excluding 2,3,10)
b or For IP Alarms: Set Use IP Alarms (checked) 1. Set IP address (e.g; 192, 168, 125, 123) 2. Set Port number (e.g; 1003)
c Select Save to store settings
4 Set up address module If required to send alarms
b Set up Sensor Parameters If required to send alarms or plot sensors
1 2 3 4 5 6
1. Set High Alarm Limit as sensor value rises through this level it will trigger high alarm (if enabled)
2. Set Low Alarm Limit as sensor value falls below this level it will trigger low alarm if enabled)
3. Enable High Alarm
4. Enable Low Alarm
5. Enable sensor to be plotted (Note: maximum of 1024 plots per EMIC)
6. Set up plot interval - interval between storing values in a plot record (Alternatively select ‘Set all’ to set all sensors to be plotted at same interval as set in interval box)
c. Repeat for each sensor as required and select Save to store settings
6 Repeat 3.2 steps 9.2 to 9.5 for each virtual outstation
3 Set up Comms settings Set up to match meters; all meters must have same settings
Ensure these values are at default (see step 13):Port Number 1Port Type RS232Baud Rate 2400Polling Interval 15 minutes (see step13)Post-init delay None (see step 13)Zero values on comms failure Comms failure threshold 4

In addition Knob, Digital Input, Switch, Analogue node, and Binary node modules and their parameters can be set up using Text Communications (e.g using SET); these can be used in calculations. Digital input modules can be programmed to generate alarms.
