Device NANL-B500G-RE

To avoid destruction to your device due to high signaling voltage, you must

observe the following instructions. These instructions apply to all devices

described in this manual.

·All I/O signal pins at the device tolerate only the specified signaling

voltage!

·Operating the device with a signaling voltage other than the specified

signaling voltage may lead to severe damage to the device!

The data on the permissible signaling voltage of the devices

described in this manual you find in the section Power supply and

host interface.

2.4.3 Exceeding the permissible current consumption at the external I/O

interface

Device NANL-B500G-RE

In order to avoid damage to your device due to excessive current

consumption at the external IO interface, you must observe the following

instructions. These apply to all devices described in this manual.

·When operating the NANL-B500G-RE device, the prescribed device-

specific maximum values for the current consumption at the I/O signal

pins of the external I/O interface must not be exceeded.

·The netX chip and other components of the NANL-B500G-RE device

can be damaged if the current consumption at the I/O signal pins of the

external I/O interface exceeds the maximum permitted values!

The information on the maximum current consumption at the I/O

signal pins for the device described in this manual can be found in

section Maximum permissible current consumption (external I/O

interface) [}page24].

2.4.4 Damage of externally attached hardware

NANL-B500G-RE

·If the +3.3V output of the external IO interface is enabled (I/O status

LED lights up orange), externally attached hardware could be damaged

as voltage is driven.

·If the +24V output of the external IO interface is enabled (I/O status LED

lights up red), externally attached hardware could be damaged as

voltage is driven.

Note on USB handling in autonomous operating mode: The .nsprj

configuration is applied immediately when the USB memory device is

connected. This means that the GPIO configuration is also applied. It is

therefore important to ensure that switching GPIO, e.g. to the 24 V output,

does not damage any externally connected circuit.

·Before an external device is connected to the NANL B500G device,

check whether the value for the voltage for the NANL B500G device set

in the software is correct. Furthermore, check whether the external

device is suitable for the application.

2.4.5 Assignment of wrong IP addresses, malfunction (NANL-B500G-RE)

The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE must not be inserted via a switch or

hub directly into a corporate network with other devices, as long as the

analyzer device is operating in DHCP server operation mode. Otherwise, it

may lead to wrong assignment of IP addresses and malfunction.

The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE works by default as an external

DHCP server in the DHCP server operation mode and independently

assigns IP addresses to other devices. This may happen also to devices,

which are not concerned by the netANALYZER measurements.

In order to connect the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE to any network,

ensure that DHCP server operation mode is disabled.

2.4.6 Power drop during write and delete accesses in the file system

The FAT file system in the netX firmware is subject to certain limitations in

its operation. Write and delete accesses in the file system (firmware

update, configuration download etc.) can destroy the FAT (File Allocation

Table) if the accesses cannot be completed if the power drops. Without a

proper FAT, a firmware may not be found and cannot be started.

ØMake sure, that the power supply of the device does not drop during

write and delete accesses in the file system (firmware update,

configuration download etc.).

2.4.7 Exceeding the maximum number of permitted write and delete

accesses

This device uses a serial flash chip to store remanent data such as

firmware storage, configuration storage, etc. This device allows a maximum

of 100,000 write/delete accesses that are sufficient for standard operation

of the device. However, writing/deleting the chip excessively (e.g. changing

the configuration or changing the name of station) leads to the maximum

number of permitted write/delete accesses being exceeded and to device

damage. For example, if the configuration is changed once an hour, the

maximum number is reached after 11.5 years. If the configuration is

changed even more frequently, for example once a minute, the maximum

number is reached after approx. 69 days.

Avoid exceeding the maximum permitted write/delete accesses by writing

too often.

2.5 Labeling of safety messages

All Safety Instructions and Safety Messages in this document are designed

in accordance with the international safety requirements and the ANSI

Z535.6 requirements, see References on safety [S1]. Messages about

hazards that could result in both, physical injury and property damage are

identified by the signal words DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION.

·The Section Safety Messages at the beginning of a chapter are

pinpointed particularly and highlighted by a signal word according to the

degree of endangerment. The type of danger is specified by the safety

message text and optionally by a specific safety sign.

·The Integrated Safety Messages within an instruction description are

highlighted with a signal word according to the degree of

endangerment. The type of danger is specified by the safety message

text.

Signal word Meaning

Indicates a direct hazard with high risk, which will have a consequence of death or grievous

bodily harm if it is not avoided. Meaning according to ANSI Z535.6: 'Indicates a hazardous

situation, which if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.'

Indicates a possible hazard with medium risk, which will have a consequence of death or

(grievous) bodily harm if it is not avoided. Meaning according to ANSI Z535.6: 'Indicates a

hazardous situation, which if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.'

Indicates a minor hazard with medium risk, which could have a consequence of minor or

moderate bodily harm if it is not avoided. Meaning according to ANSI Z535.6: 'Indicates a

hazardous situation, which if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate Injury.'

Indicates a property damage message

Table6: Singal words

Safety sign Warning or principle

Warning of device damage, for example due to power disconnect during firmware update or

configuration download, exceeding the maximum number of permitted write/delete accesses

or due to invalid or non-authorized firmware.

3 Description

With the analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE you can record the performance

and functions of individual systems or system components of bus systems

that comply with the Ethernet II IEEE 802.3 specification.

The NANL-B500G-RE analyzer device described in this user manual

operates as a passive Ethernet analyzer in Real-Time Ethernet systems.

The NANL-B500G-RE device analyzes the data traffic in a communication

path and logs the incoming Ethernet frames.

The additionally available software extension netANALYZER Scope can be

used for process data acquisition and for the clear presentation of process

values. Recorded frame data can be used for detailed protocol analysis in

Wireshark.

3.1 Recording and analyzing data traffic

For devices with two Ethernet channels, the NANL-B500G-RE analyzer

device records the Ethernet frames and adds timestamps to the frames.

Therefore, the analyzer device must be connected from one of the TAP via

two patch cables to the Ethernet device connections.

Figure1: Typical application (Use Case 2) - The communication between a device and its

connection partners in a network should be analyzed

Interactive operating mode, autonomous operating mode

·In the "Interactive operating mode", data capturing must be configured

or started via the PC software. The analyzer device NANL-B500G-RE

and the PC software collect the data packets of the communication

path, transfer the data packets and store them on the hard disk.

·In the "Autonomous operating mode", data recording with the NANL-

B500G-RE analyzer device alternatively is performed with start and stop

via the REC key, without PC software.

Test Access Points (TAP)

Two TAPs are integrated into the NANL-B500G-RE analyzer device so that

two communication channels are ready for use.
