2 Description of the BlueConnect Modules
The BlueConnect Modules
•Transmit the measured values of analog sensors via CAN bus and Modbus.
•Transmit the measured values of Modbus sensors via CAN bus.
•Transmit the measured values of sensors to a PLC.
•Control a RS232 Interface via CAN bus.
•Transmit the current values of analog current outputs via CAN bus and Modbus.
•Control an RS232 interface via CAN bus.
BlueConnect Modules are available in four basic variants: as S
ensor Module, Bus Module, Current Module and
RS232 Module.
The necessary settings are made with a PC using the enclosed BlueConnect configuration program.
see 4 Configuring the Sensor Modules with the Modbus Tool.exe
The BlueConnect Modules must be installed in such a way that they are not exposed to direct sunlight,
rain or snow. Direct sunlight can lead to extreme temperatures, which significantly reduces the service
life of electronic components.
2.1 System Setup Examples

Notes on termination of older BlueConnect Modules
Older modules have no slide switches on the board.
With older BlueConnect Senor and Bus Modules, the termination of CAN bus and Modbus is done
via the configuration program Modbus Tool.exe.
see 4.7 Configuring Older Bus Modules
Older modules are not terminated at the factory.
If there is no possibility to terminate the CAN bus via the configuration program:
CAN bus termination by means of a resistor of approx. 120 Ω on the open terminals for CAN-H and
CAN-
L on slot X4. Modbus termination by means of a resistor of approx. 120 Ω on the open term
i-
nals for TX/RX+ and TX/RX- on slot X3.

3.3 PIN Assignment
If the two terminals of slot X9 are not occupied, the open input must be terminated with a resistance of
approx. 1.2 kΩ (except for O2/Temp, here approx. 27 k Ω).

4 Configuring the BlueConnect Modules with the Program Modbus Tool.exe
This chapter describes the operation of the BlueConnect configuration program Modbus Tool.exe of
GO Systemelektronik with the article number 420 6500 in software version 1.01. For example, you can use it
(depending on the type of module and sensor) to read out sensor information, assign a Modbus address,
calibrate the sensor and display measurement values.
On older Sensor and Bus Modules without slide switches, the Modbus (RS485) and the CAN bus can be
terminated.1
The configuration of the Modbussensors of GO Systemelektronik is described in the
enclosed Manual Modbus Tool.exe for GO Modbus Sensors.
The calibration of the sensor modules can also be carried out via the menu operation on
the BlueBox and with the BlueBox PC Software.
The configuration of the Bus Module Turbidity flow through (Article No. 486 C000-TURB)
is done at the BlueBox.
The configuration of the RS232 module is done via DIP switches.
see 3.2 Cable Connections, Switch Positions and LEDs there RS232 Module
Decimal separator is the comma; if a full stop is entered, an error message appears.
The program is executable under Windows 7 and newer. An Installation is not necessary, the program starts
when Modbus Tool.exe is called up.
The program automatically detects the connected modules with their sensors.
Modbus Tool.exe is included with every BlueConnect Module.2
4.1 Preparation
In order for your PC to communicate with a Modbus
sensor,
you need a converter from RS485 to USB and driver software.
As an example, here is the Modbus USB3converter of GO Sys-
temelektronik (Article No. 486 S810) with the driver soft
ware
at:
https://ftdichip.com/drivers/d2xx-drivers there „D2XX Drivers“
The driver software creates a virtual COM Port in the Win
dows
system – in this example "USB Serial Port (COMn)".
Converter Slot X1
connected with
BlueConnect Module Slot X3
In case of communication problems:
•Check the earthing of the converter.
•Install the latest driver software.
Slot X2 (RS485 BlueSense) is used to connect Modbus sensors
with BlueSense terminal socket connectors.
