1 General
The Data Logging Unit BDB/S 1.1 is an EIB / KNX device for logging
operational data (in hours) and counting operations on up to 35 channels.
Limit values are defined for the individual counter values which automatically
initiate an alarm message on the ABB i-bus®if they are exceeded.
Data logging can be used for example, to co-ordinate the maintenance
expenditure and to determine the operational life of different devices.
Possible applications for use of the BDB/S 1.1 can be found for example in
the fields of lighting, ventilation, pumps as well as transport systems.

1.1 Product and functional
overview
The Data Logging Unit BDB/S 1.1 is a modular installation device for fast
installation in the distribution board with a module width of 2 space units.
The Data Logging Unit enables you to count the switching operations of
switch actuator channels in an ABB i-bus®system. Furthermore, the
operating hours of the connected loads can be recorded with a resolution of
up to one second. 35 independent channels are available each with seven
communication objects provided. The switching operations as well as the
operating hours can be recorded on a channel basis, where the counting
method from zero upwards or from a set value downwards can be selected.
The operating data of every channel is derived from the state of the
communication object Channel X switch position – received.
Via a communication object or parameter it is possible to define the
corresponding start or limit value for each individual switch operation counter
value. With a total value mode of counting, i.e. counting from zero up to a set
limit value, an alarm message is generated if the limit value is exceeded.
With a remaining value mode of counting, i.e. counting from an adjustable
start value down to zero, an alarm message is generated if zero is reached.
Via a communication object or parameter it is possible to define the
corresponding start or limit value for each individual operating hours counter
value. With a total run time mode of counting, i.e. counting from zero up to
set limit value, an alarm message is generated if the limit value is exceeded.
With a remaining run time mode of counting, i.e. counting from adjustable
start value down to zero, an alarm message is generated if the zero is
reached.
The counter values and start or limit values can be changed via the bus.
The values can only be modified after enabling via a communication object.
Via the communications object “Delete all operating data - System” all
operating data can be deleted in the Data Logging Unit.
Every state change adjustable via parameters increments the current
counter value of the operations counter by one.
The level to count the operating hours can be defined via a parameter.
The Data Logging Unit can even be set to count permanently via the level
setting. Counting is undertaken every second.
During a new start the switching states of the monitored switch actuator
channels are read after a settable time. A pause can be programmed
between the two corresponding telegrams. If a switch actuator does not
respond, the telegram will be repeated twice.
On bus voltage failure all counter values and start or limit values are saved
in BDB/S 1.1 and restored when the bus voltage recovers. If the limit values
are exceeded the Data Logging Unit sends the respective alarm messages
on the ABB i-bus®.

ABB i-bus®EIB / KNX
Counter/limit/start values can be changed via BUS
Options: no/yes
Option no = Counter/limit/start values can not be changed via BUS
Option yes = Counter/limit/start values can be changed via BUS
Note: The communication objects
“Channel 1 operating hours start/limit value – Change/read” and
“Channel 1 switching operations start/limit value –
Change/read” are always visible.
How can the counter/limit/start values be changed?
Before the counters, start and limit values are changed a “1” must be
received on the communications object “Enable delete/overwrite - System”.
If a “1” is received the enable to delete/overwrite the operating data is issued
and a time window of 10 seconds is activated. The time window closes
automatically 10 seconds after the last change and the communications
object value is reset to “0” and sent on the bus.
The time window remains active for at least 10 seconds after the last close
command.
What is the counter value?
The counter value signifies the current operating hours and switching
operations in the Data Logging Unit.
What is the limit value?
The limit value is only relevant when counting upwards. A limit value can be
defined by a parameter. The limit value can also be modified via the bus. If
the limit value is reached the communication object “Channel 1 operating
hours - Alarm” sends a “1”.
Note: Thereafter counting will continue up to the end value of
100,000. The counter stops at 100,000.

ABB i-bus®EIB / KNX
What is the start value?
The start value is only relevant when counting downwards. A start value can
be defined by a parameter. The start value can also be modified via the bus.
Counting down to zero starts at the start value. If the value “0” is reached the
communication object “Channel 1 operating hours - Alarm” sends a “1”.
Note: The counter stops at zero.
Overwrite saved counter values with download
Options: no/yes
Option no = saved counter values are not overwritten
Option yes = saved counter values are overwritten and the following
parameters appear
Note: The counter value can also be modified via the bus.
If the option yes is selected, the following parameters are displayed.
Operating hours new counter value after download
Options: 0…100.000
With this parameter a new counter value is set for the operating hours after
download.
Note: If the operating hours are counting as a remaining run time
(downwards counter), a plausibility test is undertaken.
Example: If a start value of 2,500 is set and the new counter value is set
to 3,500, the new counter value is automatically corrected to
2,500, as the new counter value can not be greater than the
start value.
Switching operations new counter value after download
Options: 0…4.294.967.295
With this parameter a new counter value is set for the switching operations
after download.
Note: If the switching operations are counting as a remaining run time
(downwards counter), a plausibility test is undertaken.
Example: If a start value of 2,500 is set and the new counter value is set
to 3,500, the new counter value is automatically corrected to
2,500, as the new counter value can not be greater than the
start value.
