Installation Instructions

Connecting a Power Supply

The StationPortal operates with 100–240V AC, 50–60 Hz input power with 0.3A RMS

maximum input current.

The StationPortal requires a power cord that has a standard IEC 60320-C13 plug.

Overcurrent Protection

StationPortal unit’s power supply provides overcurrent protection (including short circuits). If

an overcurrent condition occurs, the power supply continually tries to restart until the

overcurrent condition is removed. An internal fuse (FU1), which is rated for 250VAC at 1A, is

provided in the input line as a backup. The power supply usually trips and goes into retry

mode before the fuse blows. There is no additional indication if the power supply fuse blows.

The fuse is not user-replaceable.

Power Cord Retainer

A clip is provided on the StationPortal unit to provide retention for a few types of power cords.

Warning

Electrical Shock Hazard: To avoid personal injury or damage to equipment,

ensure that the power cord is disconnected from AC input power during the

installation of the power cord and power cord retainer clip.

Note: The clip provided with the StationPortal will work best with a power cord that has a

plug or cord strain relief extending up to 2.441 inches (62mm).

GFK-2522A 5

Detailed Operation

A StationPortal can communicate with only one client at a time. However, a single client can

communicate with multiple StationPortal devices. Although the number and types of devices

that each client can support will vary, Proficy HMI/SCADA CIMPLICITY supports a native

interface to the StationPortal that acts as a client. Details on the number and types of devices

that a CIMPLICITY instance can support are described in the CIMPLICITY documentation.

The StationPortal I/O is natively addressable in the Proficy HMI/SCADA CIMPLICITY control

and visualization product.

Communications Ports

Ethernet Port

The StationPortal unit provides a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port (IEEE802.3) with an RJ45

connector on the bottom of the enclosure. An unshielded, twisted pair, UTP CAT 5 cable is

the minimum required.

LED indicators on the port indicate channel status.

any personal computer (PC) using an Ethernet cable. Power up the StationPortal unit.

Open the “command prompt” window on PC by clicking on “Start Run. Type “cmd” in the

dialog box.

At the command prompt, type the following to access the configuration menu:

> telnet <IP address>

Example: > telnet 192.168.0.35

Where <IP address> is the IP address of the StationPortal unit. The Default IP address of

StationPortal is 192.168.0.35.

12 StationPortal Hardware User’s Guide – February 2010 GFK-2522A

Hardware Configuration

If you do not know the IP address, it can be reset to the default settings. For details, refer to

the “Default Settings” section on page 22.

4 Baud Rate Selects the baud rate for serial communications 0=2400

1= 4800

2=9600

3=19,200

5 Parity Selects the parity for serial communications 0=None

1=Odd

2=Even

6 Set default state

for outputs Set the default states that the outputs will assume if the StationPortal

is not in communication with a client.

For example, a lack of communications could be caused by the

Ethernet cable being removed from either end of an Ethernet

connection or upon initial device power-up.

Example: To select the following default states, enter 0123000.

Right Light – OFF

Left Light – ON

Top Light – Flash

Horn – Hold

OUTPUT1 – OFF

OUTPUT2 – OFF

OUTPUT3 – OFF

The factory default settings for StationPortal are to turn the Top Light

ON and all other outputs (horn, outputs 1-3, etc) off. Illuminating a

light when communication isn’t present allows the end-user to

distinguish between a loss of power and absence of communication.

Note: Do not enter “2” as the default state of the Field outputs

because they do not support Flash operation.

Note: While in this state, it is expected that clients will periodically

try to re-establish communication with StationPortal. If

communication can be established, the user’s application

will once again be able to drive outputs. However, the

default conditions will persist until the application does so.

Note: If the user has configured the default output state to “Hold

last state” and unit is power cycled, the Outputs will be

driven to “Off” state.

Note: If the user changes the default state of the output, the new

values applies when the unit is power cycled or loss of

communication occurred.

0=Off

1=On

2=Flash

3=Hold Last
