HPE8884P1 Network I/O Expansion, P1 FLN
FW4.02
28 point network point expansion unit for P1 FLN networks. The large I/O count enables remote
monitoring and control of numerous points over the P1 network.
Universal inputs may be locally scaled and tagged according to engineering units, calibrated and/or
filtered to adjust for cabling or sensor characteristics. Digital inputs and UI’s may be configured as pulse
counters. Digital outputs may have short-cycle timers set.
Typical Applications
 Digital/analogue inputs such as alarms, operation statuses, high/low level, water & air flow
proving, environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity or pressure, and other
auxiliary contacts.
 Digital/analogue outputs for switching of fans, pumps, lighting or remote status indication, and
modulating control of actuators, speed or load controllers and remote analogue gauges.
 Universal inputs and digital inputs may be used as counting inputs for metering of energy and
volume and instantaneous load calculation at the Master controller

Operation Overview
The inputs and outputs are numerically represented as a Function Block ‘point’. The point is a function
block’s output value. Depending on the purpose of a function block the point may have a range of sub-
parameters available for defining the block’s function and the operational features & limitations of the
function.
The process of setting up function blocks and connecting function blocks to form an application uses
simple text lines therefore it is not necessary to learn a complex programming language. The settings
may be manually typed in to the device or, using the FUNCPROG 141101 programming tool which
provides a visual representation of each block, an application text file may be created, saved and
downloaded to the device as a complete group of settings. Earlier versions of FuncProg may be used
but the latest feature settings will not be directly available in those earlier versions.
The ability to make single setting changes directly at the device makes for easy debugging and
commissioning.
The function blocks comprise:
 Physical I/O for connection of input switches, sensors and output control devices
 Network settings
In all cases points may be manually overridden for testing & commissioning purposes or for service
override.
Connection to the device for programming and service is via a terminal program such as HyperTerminal
(recommended). While on-line to the device it is possible to view point statuses and where applicable,
any dependent or influencing point’s connections. Statuses are updated live to the terminal screen
every 10 seconds or manually refreshed any time by pressing the enter key.
In additional to the predefined point displays a user-defined display is available for a customised point
summary related to an application. The user display may contain up to 32 lines of user text with or
without dynamic points included.

Application Number 161
The default application number is 161. If necessary it is possible to change the application number
while in terminal mode with the command AN=nnnnn
Point Types
A total of 28 function blocks exist in the device. Many points may be Digital or Analogue, therefore it is
necessary to consider the programmed use of an input or an output before deciding it’s point type.
Example, DI1
Description: Physical digital input
Point #: 1
Type when on/off DI: LDI
Type when Pulse counter: LAI

Terminal Mode
The HPECOMU data cable with USB connection is used for terminal mode between the device and a
PC running a terminal program. HyperTerminal is recommended. The driver for the HPECOMU cable
may be downloaded from www.hrw.hk, Resources / Tools, section.
HyperTerminal Settings
For successful communication between HyperTerminal and the device, initial Properties setup of
HyperTerminal should be as per the screen prints below.
‘Connect to’ Comm Configuration: ‘Settings’ General:
‘Settings’ ASCII Setup:
4800

HRW HPE8884P1 V402 Manual 150622.docx E. & O. E. / Subject to change without notice Page 7 of 23
Additional Settings
Some PC platforms may need keyboard response adjustment for initial Terminal Mode success. These
settings may be done via the PC Control Panel >> Keyboard Settings:
 Fastest Repeat rate
 Shortest Delay time
 Fastest Cursor Blink rate
Connecting at 76800 Baud Rate
Because HyperTerminal does not support 76800 baud then after setting to 76800 the device baud rate
will remain at 9600 baud for HyperTerminal communication and switch to 76800 after Writing the new
baud rate and eXiting terminal mode.
To allow later terminal communication a device set with 76800 baud will operate at 9600 baud for the
first 5 seconds after a power-up. If no attempt to connect the terminal at 9600 baud is made within 5
seconds of a power-up then the device will automatically switch to 76800 for normal network operation.
Saving HyperTerminal Settings
For ease of connection it is recommended to save the HyperTerminal setup for each baud rate you may
wish to use with an easily recognised configuration name. For example:
 HPECOM 24 (2400)
 HPECOM 48 (4800)
 HPECOM 96 (9600)
 HPECOM 19.2 (19200)
 HPECOM 38.4 (38400)
 HPECOM 57.6 (57600)
Changing Baud Rate
After changing to a new baud rate the controller will not start running at the new baud rate until the
change has been Written (W). If setting a new baud rate via text file application download the new baud
rate will be applied immediately the download is completed (auto-Write).
In either case, after the Write action, you will need to reconnect the terminal program at the new baud
rate if you wish to continue the terminal session.

HRW HPE8884P1 V402 Manual 150622.docx E. & O. E. / Subject to change without notice Page 8 of 23
Break in to Terminal Mode
When HyperTerminal is running and the HPECOM cable is connected to the powered device the initial
terminal screen will be blank. If the device power is reset “Hello” will appear on the screen. If Hello does
not appear on the screen after a power reset then it is likely that the HyperTerminal baud rate setting is
incorrect.
To break in to terminal mode set Caps Lock on and hold the ‘T’ character key continuously
(TTTTTTT…). After five (5) T’s have been sent to the device it will switch to terminal mode. At this point
the device will display the default user screen.

Manualled physical inputs (points 1…8 & 17…24) will revert to ‘Auto’ after being Released or after a
power reset. Physical outputs will retain the Manual setting after a power reset if the Manual state is
Written (W) before being released, thereby making the Manual state the power-up default state. If the
‘Remember’ function is enabled for an output the last commanded state is valid after a power reset.
