Server Application -RTU DESIGNER

RTU Designer software facilitates user to compose data processing rules from stored project templates and device profiles. RTU Designer generates XML file as build output which in turn will be loaded in RTU for execution. The generated build output will be downloaded through web console or Remote Mass upgrade application for mass

deployment.

Key Benefits –RTU Integration


Existing Architecture ( With SMPS) Proposed Architecture ( With RTU)

1. Manual intervention is needed to reset the CPU at site when it goes in hanged state.

1. With RTU, the hardware watchdog timer will allow resetting the CPU automatically and avoid CPU to enter into infinite loop. No manual intervention will be required.

2. Currently at the field level there is dependency on Laptops for accessing SMPS controllers & Gateway for basic configurations & trouble shooting.

2. With introduction of RTU, all basic configurations of DG sets, ACEM,BMS,SMPS & also viewing the currently active alarms in site can be done through RTU LCD display eliminating use of laptops. Troubleshooting will become easier.

3. For adding functionality features in SMPS like Delays and Filters in Alarms, Blocking/Unblocking Alarms, Logical gate mediation in BMS, support for new devices like ACEM, DG controller, Serial Port configurations all these activity requires software development for each SMPS make. This cycle of Software changes, testing and official release by OEM usually takes 10-12 weeks in current scenario.

3. In RTU, all these functionality features are user configurable with “RTU Designer Web Application”. Even the protocol profile of every equipment which needs integration with RTU can be uploaded as an XML file. Advantage of using RTU Designer application will be removing dependency on SMPS OEM’s for binary file & saves time . All these complex operations can be now developed within 1 week also.

4. IO Peripherals Configuration ( Digital & Analog IO) is not possible through embedded web server.

4. Most of features built up in the embedded web server of RTU . All IO peripheral configurations also possible.

5. Passwords of SMPS Controllers & Gateways cant be managed 5. Passwords of all access level in RTU will be managed

Key Benefits –RTU Integration Contd :


Existing Architecture ( With SMPS) Proposed Architecture ( With RTU)

6. VLAN Tagging and L2 Switch functionality is not supported in SMPS and Gateway.

6. VLAN Tagging and L2 switch functionality is implemented from Day-1 itself. Advantage will be only 1 port will be used at upstream router end. Also in future if our network allows only tagged communication it will be a seamless integration.

7. Network Time Sync not supported in most of the SMPS controller due to which we are unable to correlate the occurrence of Alarms at the server end.

7. Network Time Sync will be supported from Day-1 itself.

Key Benefits –RTU Integration

Hardware Front Availability• WatchDog Timer would be embedded in the same microcontroller chipset. This timer would allow to

reset the CPU automatically in scenarios where CPU would go into an infinite loop & get hanged . No

manual intervention would be required to initiate reset of the CPU. It will be done through software.

• Local LCD display for viewing the important parameters of all external interfaced equipments like DG

sets, ACEM,BMS,SMPS & also viewing the currently active alarms in site. This will aid in troubleshooting

activity. User can also set some basic functions specific to site like selection of BMS Model (

Coslight/Exicom etc..) , No of Installed Battery Modules ,Modbus functions of enabling /disabling

ACEM,DG communication. This will completely eliminate the use of laptops for commissioning activity.

• Number of other peripherals available for communicating with external environment ie Sensors & Actuators & for interfacing

with external equipments like BMS,ACEM ,SMPS,DG Sets etc . The RTU board will have inbuilt 8 DI, 2 Relay Outputs, 2 AI (

Voltage or current input ) ,4 -RS 485 ,5 -LAN ,1 -RS 232 ports available.


Key Benefits –RTU Integration ( Contd… )

Softwares ( System Softwares & Application Softwares)

• Supports Multi Tasking OS

• Multiple protocols embedded like Modbus RTU ,ASCII ,SNMP V3 ,NTP ( for network Time Sync)

• Embedded Web Server containing option to configure the various IO peripherals , Network Management ( Enabling /Disabling Tagged Communication,Ethernet Communication ) , Serial Communication Enable/Disable, Event & Comm Logs , Active Alarms Viewing

• Supports Dual IP stack ( IPV4 & IPV6 over DHCP ) , L2 Switch Functionality ,Multiple Trap Receiver Redundancy ( Min 4)

• RTU Designer Web Application which will make RTU programme user configurable . The protocol profile of every equipment which needs integration with RTU can be uploaded as a XML file. Several Complex operations related to the Alarms & Measurements like Logical Gate Mediation in BMS , Adding Delays & Filters on alarms ,Blocking /Unblocking Alarms will be made user programmable on the RTU designer GUI . The output generated from this application will be a non compiled XML file which can be then downloaded to target RTUs in bulk. Advantage of using this software will be removing dependency on multiple SMPS OEMs to provide a cross compiled binary code the development & testing cycle for which usually takes min 8 -10 weeks in current scenario. By introducing RTU & this designer software we can significantly reduce the software development cycle time.

• Mass deployment Application will be a separate menu in RTU Designer Web Application . The saved XML files ( with version control) can be downloaded to multiple RTUs in multi-threaded manner & not sequentially.

• Other salient features which are part of RTU Designer Web application are User Accounts Management ,RTU Password Management ,Audit Trails , Upgrade Reports , Alerts Generation ( For instance when RTU Swapped in field)
