14.Assemble the communications cable. Port details as per Fig 10.
Note: These are the onboard
MJ2 connections and not
the cable connector.
Fig.10
Connect:
XLt MJ2 port (Half Duplex Mode) SmartMod Comm. Port
Pin 1 (Tx+/Rx+) B (D+)
Pin 2 (Tx-/Rx-) A (D-)
Pin 6 (0V) C (GND)
For Initialisation settings connect:
SmartMod Comm. Port SmartMod Comm. Port
C(GND) D(INIT)
15.When the cable is assembled connect the RJ45 end to MJ2 on the XLt. Connect
the Smartmod 4-way terminal block to the HE359DIQ512 comm. port.
16.Power-up the HE359DIQ512 SmartMod. The Initialisation settings (INIT
connected to GND at power-up) will cause the SmartMod to start in the following
mode: Baud Rate 9600, No parity, 1 Stop Bit and as Modbus Node ID 1. This
is to allow communications so the SmartMod can be configured for alternative
settings, if necessary. See Fig. 3 above for Cscape/XLt equivalent settings.

17. If communications is established then the green Power LED on the front of the
HE359DIQ512 will flash (may not be visible at higher baud rates) and the XLt
screen will display a binary sequence of 0’s and 1’s in the first data field
’40006(SmartMod)’ and a decimal value of between 1 and 247 in the second
data field ‘40007 (SmartMod)’.
18. Take note of the value displayed at 40006 and compare it to the following table
(Fig. 11) to discern the actual communication settings in the unit.
Fig. 11
19.For example, a displayed value of: 0000000001011111 would indicate the
following: Bits 0-2 added to give Baud Rate:
Bit 0 On = decimal 1
Bit 1 On = decimal 2
Bit 2 On = decimal 4
The sum of these three bits gives a value of 7 indicating a Baud Rate of 38400
Bit 3 On = 8 Data Bits
Bit 4 On = decimal 1
Bit 5 Off = decimal 0
The sum of these two bits gives a value of 1 indicating Even Parity
Bit 6 On = Modbus RTU Mode
Bits 7-15 are unused.
20. The second data field, 40007 will indicate the Node ID of the attached
SmartMod.

21.Using the XLt touchscreen/keypad, edit the fields to suitable values for your
application.
22. Any changes that are made to the SmartMod settings MUST also be reflected in
the Cscape/XLt setup. Otherwise communications may be lost when the INIT to
GND connection is disconnected and the SmartMod reset.

TROUBLESHOOTING THE CONNECTION
1. There are several status registers that can be assigned to give an indication of
the health of the Network and of individual Modbus Nodes (SmartMods)
2. In Cscape/Protocol Configuration/Network settings, assign a register as in
Fig. 12. The registers are defined below.
Fig. 12
Update interval Exceeded Count [%R1000+%R1001] (32 bit) – Number of
times that the actual transaction scan time to complete all transactions exceeded
specified update interval. Generally used as an indicator that an excessive
number of triggered transfers or failed communication retries are occurring that is
lengthening the expected transaction scan time. If the Update interval is set to
zero (update as fast as possible), this 32-bit register alternately specifies the
actual transaction scan time in mSec resolution.
No Response Count [%R1002+%R1003] (32 bit) – Number of times that a
device(s) did not respond to a transaction. This includes ALL failed transaction,
not just those after the retry count is exceeded.
Corrupt Response Count [%R1004+%R1005] (32 bit) – Number of times that a
device(s) returned an invalid or failed response to a transaction. This includes
ALL failed transaction, not just those after the retry count is exceeded.
Valid Response Count [%R1006+%R1007] (32 bit) – Total number of valid
responses.

3. If communications is established and good then expect to see the value in
%R1006(7) increase.
4. If communications is established and bad then expect to see the value in
%R1004(5) increase. Check the cable connections and or register addressing in
Cscape/Protocol Configuratiuon/Scanlist
5. If there is no communications then %R1002 will increment. Check cable is
connected/XLt and SmartMod are powered and configured and that the XLt is in
RUN mode
6. For individual Modbus Nodes (SmartMods) another register can be enabled at
Cscape/Protocol Configuration/Device settings as per Fig. 13
Fig. 13

7. This register value gives feedback for the specific Modbus Node.
•129 - Slave Timeout
•130 - Bad Checksum (corrupted incoming data)
•131 - No response
•197 - Slave does not support this function.
•198 - PLC Reference type doesn't match data type
•200 - Specified data length exceeds Modbus frame size
8. All of the appropriate registers can be added and their values viewed live in
Cscape when the XLt is connected by using the Controller/Datawatch window
(Fig. 14).

Other Checks
SmartMod PWR LED Off Check power to SmartMod
SmartMod PWR LED not flashing Has communication been established? Is
the Baud rate set for 9600 or lower?
Cannot edit data on Xlt screen Ensure Editable box is ticked for Data
Field.
SmartMod does not retain settings and will
only communicate at 9600 baud Ensure GND and INIT jumper is disconnected.
No Communications between XLt and
SmartMod Check cable. Check SmartMod GND and INIT Pins are connected? Power cycle
SmartMod. Check that Network Settings in
Cscape/Protocol configuration are
appropriate. Check program is
downloaded to XLt. Check cable is
connected to MJ2
No communications between Cscape and
XLt Check PC serial connection to MJ1. Check Cscape Local and Target addresses are
identical. Ensure protocol configuration is
loaded to MJ2
