Introduction
General Information
The Anybus Communicator Ethernet-USS Gateway functions as a gateway between the Universal Serial
Interface Protocol (from now on referred to as ‘USS’) and PROFINET IO. Acting as a slave with Real
Time capabilities on the PROFINET side, and as a master on the USS network, it controls up to 31 USS
slaves.
The gateway can be configured solely via the PROFINET configuration tool, i.e. no proprietary config-
uration utilities are required.
The built-in web server allows monitoration of data through an easy to use web-based user interface.
Additionally, a built-in email client can issue email-messages as the status of the slaves on the USS net-
work changes.

Chapter 2
Data Exchange
Overview
The mapping of USS data to PROFINET is based on the mapping scheme defined by the PNO working
group for PROFINET IO Proxy Devices. In short, this means that on PROFINET, each USS slave is
represented through a dedicated slot. Slot #0 is reserved for the gateway itself, while slot #1... 31 is as-
sociated with the slaves on the USS network. Each slot uses one subslot for the mapping of its assigned
data to PROFINET.
In addition to the Process Data (PZD) and Parameter Data (PKW), the Slave Data Set also features a
Slave Status Register, which reflects the overall status of the slave.
Note that all data is exchanged transparently. This means that in order to be able to access Parameter
Data (PKW), the parameter access protocol used to access PKW data must be implemented entirely on
the PLC side.

USS Master Implementation
General Information
The USS protocol (Universal Serial Interface Protocol), defines an access technique according to the
Master-Slave principle for communication via a serial RS-485 based communication bus. The protocol
includes fixed- or variable frame length, cyclic, acyclic and point-to-point communications. The gateway
communicates according to a subset of the protocol, implementing support for cyclic communication
with fixed frame lengths.
All PKW and PZD data is exchanged transparently. This means that the parameter access protocol used
to access PKW data, if required, must be implemented entirely on the PLC side.
Configuration
The gateway can be configured solely using the PROFINET Configuration Tool, e.g. Step 7. No local
configuration tools or settings are required.
See also...
• 3-1 “Network Configuration”
Operation
The gateway will only poll slaves marked as ‘Operational’ in the internal scanlist. Each time a bus cycle
is completed, the gateway checks the status of slaves previously marked as ‘Non-Operational’ and up-
dates the scanlist for the next cycle as necessary.
The status of each individual USS slave can be read in its’ corresponding Slave Status Register.

Data Exchange 2-3
Slave Data Set
General Information
The data associated with each slave is organized as follows:
Slave Status Register
This register reflects the current status of the slave.
• RES (Reserved)
Reserved for future use, mask off and ignore.
• FNF (Fieldbus Network Fault)
This bit indicates if the fieldbus has gone on- (set) or off- (cleared) line.
• USSF (USS Fault)
This bit is set if a USS master-slave communication fault has been detected.
•OP(Operational)
This bit is set if the gateway has detected the slave and found it operational.
•CFG(Configured)
This bit is set (1) if the node is configured in the master or cleared (0) if not configured.
•SlaveNo.
USS slave address (0... 31).
Process Data (PZD)
This is the actual Process Data (PZD) image.
Parameter Data (PKW)
The gateway does not process the Parameter Data (PKW) data in any way. This means that the param-
eter access protocol used to access PKW data, if required, must be implemented entirely on the PLC
side. Exactly how this is done is beyond the scope of this document.

Chapter 3
Network Configuration
General Information
As mentioned previously, the gateway can be configured solely via the PROFINET configuration tool
(e.g. Step 7). No local configuration utilities or settings are required. The configuration is based on the
PROFINET GSD-file, which can be downloaded from the HMS web site (‘www.anybus.com’).
TCP/IP Settings
To participate on the PROFINET network, the gateway needs a valid TCP/IP configuration. The gate-
way fully supports the DCP protocol, allowing the IO Controller/Supervisor to change the TCP/IP set-
tings of the gateway during runtime. In addition, the gateway supports DHCP and Anybus IPconfig
(HICP). The TCP/IP settings can also be accessed via the web-based configuration interface.
When using DHCP, the gateway will attempt to retrieve the TCP/IP settings from a DHCP server dur-
ing startup. If no DHCP server is found, the gateway falls back to its current settings (i.e. any manual
settings that may have been specified earlier).
If no current settings are available (i.e. if the previous settings are invalid), the gateway will halt and in-
dicate an error on the on-board status LEDs. The TCP/IP configuration may however still be accessed
via Anybus IPconfig (HICP).

• A-1 “Anybus IPconfig (HICP)”
SMTP Account Setting
In addition, in order to be able to send notification messages via email, the gateway needs a valid SMTP
server account. These settings can be accessed through the web-based configuration interface.

Network Configuration 3-2
Station Name
General Information
When used for the first time, the gateway needs to be assigned a Station Name. This can either be done
using the SIMATIC Manager or using the SIMATIC Primary Setup Tool. Both cases are described in
this document.
SIMATIC Primary Setup Tool
Note: The following example uses the SIMATIC Primary Setup Tool. This tool is sometimes not in-
cluded in a typical Step 7 installation. In such case, it is also possible to use a built-in function called ‘Edit
Ethernet node’, see 3-3 “SIMATIC Manager (Edit Ethernet Node)”
To specify the Station Name using the Primary Setup Tool, perform the following steps.
1. Open the SIMATIC Primary Setup Tool
2. Select the ‘Network Adapter’-entry in the ‘Settings’-menu
3. Highlight the ethernet interface used for the gateway, and select the ‘Browse’-entry in the ‘Net-
work’-menu.
4. When prompted, enter the station name (e.g. ‘ABC-USS-PRT’)

Network Configuration 3-3
SIMATIC Manager (Edit Ethernet Node)
Note: The following example uses the SIMATIC Manager. It is also possible to use the SIMATIC Pri-
mary Setup Tool, see 3-2 “SIMATIC Primary Setup Tool”
To specify the Station Name using the SIMATIC Manager, perform the following steps.
1. Open the SIMATIC Manager.
2. Select the ‘Edit Ethernet Node...’-entry in the ‘PLC’-menu
3. Select the gateway in the list of devices (‘Browse Network’) and click ‘OK’
4. Specify the Station Name in the ‘Assign device name’-field.
5. When done, click ‘Close’.

USS & PROFINET Configuration (SIMATIC Manager)
General Information
The purpose of this section is to illustrate how to add the gateway and data from the USS slaves to the
PROFINET configuration. Note that a prerequisite for the following examples is that all TCP/IP set-
tings are properly configured.
Step 1: Set Up and Add the Gateway to the Configuration
To configure the gateway, perform the following steps.
1. Open the SIMATIC Manager and start a new project.
2. Select ‘Set PG/PC Interface...’-entry in the ‘Options’-menu.
3. Change the PG/PC Interface to ‘TCP/IP (Auto)’.
4. Highlight the station and double-click on ‘Hardware’.
5. In the ‘HW Config’-window, import the GSD-file by selecting
the ‘Install GSD file...’-entry in the ‘Options’-menu.
6. Drag & Drop the ABC-USS-PRT into the network.

Network Configuration 3-5
Step 2: Specify the Baudrate for the USS Network
To specify the baudrate for the USS communication, perform the following steps:
1. Highlight the gateway in the network configuration (‘HW Config’-window, ‘A’)
2. Right-click on slot #0 (‘B’) and select ‘Object Properties’.
3. Select the ‘Parameter’-tab (‘C’)
4. Specify the baudrate for the USS network (‘D’)
5. Click ‘OK’ when done (‘E’)

Network Configuration 3-6
Step 3: Add Data from the USS Network to the Configuration
Each slave on the USS network is represented trough a dedicated slot. The slot number correlates 1:1
to the USS slave number, i.e. slot #23 on PROFINET represents USS slave #23.
To add data from the USS network to the configuration, perform the following steps:
1. Right-click on a slot corresponding to the USS slave for which
data shall be added.
2. Select the ‘Insert Object...’-entry.
3. Select an object which matches the data sizes (PKW and PZD)
of the slave which shall be added.
4. Repeat steps 1... 3 for all USS slaves which shall be included in
the configuration.
Example:
Example with a single USS slave with the following properties:
- Slave address #1
- 4 words of Parameter Data (PKW)
- 16 words of Process Data (PZD)
Note: The ranges shown in the ‘I Address’- and ‘Q address’-
columns includes space for the Slave Status Register in both
directions.
Step 4: Downloading the Configuration
To download the finished configuration to the IO Controller, select
the ‘Download...’-entry in the ‘PLC’-menu.

Chapter 4
Web Interface
General Information
The gateway features a web-based configuration and monitoration interface, used to set up basic com-
munication properties (i.e. IP address, network mask etc.) as well as to monitor the status and data of
the individual slaves on the USS network.
To access the web-based configuration interface, perform the following steps:
1. Open a web browser (e.g. Mozilla Firefox)
2. Enter the IP address of the gateway in the address field. The gateway will ask for authentication.
The username is ‘USS Gateway’, and the password is ‘1234’.
