1.2. DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM.
1.2.1. Introduction.
The SALICRU devices are usually installed in locations far away
from the area of production, which means that information pro-
vided by the device about its status can often be overlooked.
The NIMBUS card solves this problem by offering a remote
maintenance service that provides real-time information about
the current status of the device.
Remote communication with the device enables maintenance
and repair work to be carried out without the need to travel to
the installation site to find out about its status.
The functionalities of the NIMBUS card are specially designed
to work with SALICRU devices, making it currently compatible
with the following series:
•DC POWER-S
•DC POWER-L
•SLS CUBE3 / CUBE3+
•SLC CUBE4
•EMI3
•SLC ADAPT/X
•SLC ADAPT2
•SLC X-PERT
•SLC X-TRA
•SLC TWIN RT2
•SLC TWIN PRO2
•SLC TWIN/3 PRO2

1.2.3. Features of the system.
The NIMBUS card features various basic integrated services to
enable basic connection to the device.
Basic service Description
Onboard panel Web panel that enables remote monitoring of the
device. As it is dependent on the NIMBUS card, if it
is not connected it will not be possible to access the
panel.
Communication
through MODBUS
Reading data through MODBUS.
RTC The card’s internal real-time clock.
Auto-
configuration of
the device
When installing the card in any of the compatible
devices, it will automatically detect which device it is.
Alarm notification Notification alert through the onboard panel in real
time.
DNS server Possibility of assigning domain names to the device.
IP address Choice of DHCP or static web address.
Tab. 3. Basic integrated services
1.2.4. Optional systems.
Although the NIMBUS card is already capable of providing re-
mote maintenance with the basic features of the system and
access to device data, these optional systems make it more
effective.
There are two types of optional systems:
•Communication protocols: improve the adaptability and
compatibility of the card with different industrial commu-
nication protocols.
•Web panel in the cloud: it allows you to monitor all devices
from a single web page, without having to go through them
one by one to detect problems. It allows you to receive
more advanced notifications: web push, email or SMS.
The remote maintenance with the web panel also offers
faster technical support in real time as it is a web page to
which SALICRU’s professionals have access. This reduces the
average time it takes to repair a device in unexpected cases.
Optional
service

By enabling the external connection of the card, it is
possible to make calls to the communication services
without having to access the inside of the card.
RCCMD This service enables you to perform a controlled shutdown
of the servers, in the event that certain conditions are
detected by the device.
SNMP Secondary communication protocol. This enables
notifications to be sent to the user’s IP when an alarm is
activated.

2. INSTALLATION AND STARTUP.
1. Remove the protective plastic from the battery from the
NIMBUS card.
Fig. 3. Unlocking the battery of the NIMBUS card
2. Insert the NIMBUS card into the appropriate slot of the
device. It needs to be well inserted.
The card will be powered directly by the device, meaning
that no external power is necessary. If the card has been
correctly inserted, the power LEDs will light up. See the red
box in Fig. 4.
Fig. 4. NIMBUS card inserted into its slot
3. Connect one end of an RJ45 cable to the card and the other
end to the Ethernet socket. The RJ45 port lights on the card
should light up. See the red box in Fig. 5.
Fig. 5. Connection of the RJ-45 cable
4. Once the NIMBUS card is correctly powered by the device,
it will be ready for use. The NIMBUS card will come with
the latest available version already installed by default.
Once the NIMBUS card protective cover is in place, it
should look like the image shown in Fig. 6.
Fig. 6. The NIMBUS card with protective cover in place.
2.1. INITIAL CONNECTION.
Important: The card has a preset IP address to enable initial
connection. This address is fixed and always available; how-
ever, it is necessary to configure a secondary IP address in order
to use the card correctly.
Once the NIMBUS card has been correctly installed in the de-
vice via the corresponding slot, an available IP address must
then be correctly configured in order to gain remote access to
the card’s onboard panel. There are two ways to do this.
2.1.1. Point-to-point connection (Ethernet cable).
The fixed IP is always available at the address 100.0.0.1.
To access it, connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the dedi-
cated slot on the NIMBUS card and the other end to your com-
puter.
Configure the point-to-point connection by accessing network
connections and creating a new connection with the following
parameters:
Fig. 7. Network parameters for point-to-point connection.
After you have correctly created the point-to-point connec-
tion, you should be able to access the NIMBUS card via this
IP address. If you access the card via this address in the web
browser (https://100.0.0.1), change the card’s final address in
the panel’s ‘Network’ section (3.5.1 Network).

the panel diagram, it will appear in this section as suitable for
acknowledgement. To do so, click on the ‘Validate’ button next
to the alarm you wish to acknowledge.
Fig. 44. Manage alarms.
After the alarm has been acknowledged, it will remain active and
will still be shown in red on the panel. Once an alarm has been
acknowledged via this page, it cannot be acknowledged again.
3.5.7. Actions (DC-S series only).
In this section it is possible to force actions on the device, al-
though at present only the battery test is available. When it is
possible to launch an action on the device internally, the cor-
responding button will be shown next to the action in question.
Otherwise, if the action is not available (as shown in Fig. 45), a
locked button will be shown and the action cannot be launched.
Fig. 45. Forcing actions.
3.5.8. Logs (DC-S series only).
You can use this page to download the device’s internal logs.
This process requires two actions. First, generate the log by
clicking on the ‘Start’ button. This will retrieve the device's log
and display it on the screen. This may take a few minutes.

Once the log has been generated, it will be displayed on the
screen, along with an option for downloading it in .csv format.
3.5.9. Backup (DC-S series only).
In the event of a device malfunction, you can use this page to
restore the device’s factory settings. First, click on the ‘Start’
button next to the ‘Backup Device’ option in order to restore the
factory settings. When these settings are available, the button
next to the ‘Restore and Apply Backup’ option will be activated
and you can proceed with the operation. If you wish to restore
the factory settings, click on the ‘Start’ button.

3.6. SYSTEM (ONLY FOR THE ENGINEER USER).
Click on ‘System’ to display/hide the options described in this
section.
Fig. 48. System screen.
3.6.1. Network.
The NIMBUS card has two possible modes of remote connec-
tion through IP address.
3.6.1.1. Through DHCP.
In DHCP mode, the IP and other network parameters are as-
signed by your network's DHCP server, so no manual configura-
tion is required for these fields.
To access the NIMBUS card you must know the IP assigned by
DHCP.
3.6.1.2. Through static IP.
The IP address needs to be set manually and will remain the
same until it is modified.
To modify it, you need to change the details in the IP field. The
other data must be modified in accordance with the parameters
of the local network where the card is being used.
Fig. 49. Network settings.
Do not modify the card's IP address if it is connected to
the panel via that address, as the connection will auto-
matically be lost.
You can also change or add the DNS server address. You can
have up to two DNS servers.
If DHCP configuration is enabled, these fields will be
filled in automatically, but can be changed manually if
necessary.
3.6.2. Date and time.
If you wish to modify the card’s NTP server, you can do so in
this section.
By default, it is configured with the servers of pool.ntp.org.
3.6.3. RCCMD (Optional service).
To activate this screen, first refer to section 5. Installing the
RCCMD software.4. Instalación del software de RCCMD.
Specify the IP address of the destination server here. If you
wish to broadcast, enter the broadcast IP. You must also add
the port of the RCCMD client, in accordance with the procedure
explained in section ‘4.2.2. Puerto del emisor.’.

Set the wait time for each type of alarm before activating the
server shutdown event. If the timer cannot be adjusted, the ac-
tivation condition for remote server shutdown will be executed
immediately.
Fig. 50. RCCMD settings.
The value entered into the ‘Timer’ field must be ex-
pressed in milliseconds.
3.6.4. Services.
This page may take longer to load than the others, so
please be patient.
This section and Tab. 7 show all of the internal services of the
NIMBUS card that can be modified. If you have not acquired the
optional systems, the MQTT service will not appear on the list.
Service Description
Modbus
TCP
Secondary communication protocol derived from MODBUS
(main communication protocol).
RCCMD This service enables you to perform a controlled shutdown of
the servers, in the event that certain conditions are detected
by the device.
SNMP Secondary communication protocol. This enables notifications
to be sent to the user’s IP when an alarm is activated.
MQTT Protocol used to send data to the cloud. (Optional system)
External
connection
By enabling the external connection of the card, it is possible
to make calls to the communication services without having to
access the inside of the card.
Tab. 7. NIMBUS card internal services
You can activate and deactivate them according to your needs.
By default, all services are active except for the external con-
nection, as shown in Fig. 51.
Fig. 51. Active services screen.
After you enable the external connection, you will need
to wait a few minutes until all of the services have
started correctly. Bear in mind that the Modbus TCP service is
slower to start than the others and will therefore be shown as
inactive during the first minute.
Disconnecting services means that some functionalities
of the NIMBUS card will stop working. Do not modify a
service if you do not know what it is used for.
3.6.5. SNMP (Optional service).
You will only be able to view this page if you have purchased
the optional SNMP service.
Enter the IP address of your computer to receive alarm notifica-
tions through SNMP. To find the IP address of your computer,
open the system search function, type ‘cmd’, then run the pro-
gram. Type ‘ipconfig’into the terminal and look for the address
‘inet’.
The default community will always be ‘salicru’. If you wish to
modify this setting, use the ‘SNMP Community’ field to change
the name of the community that is assigned by default.
Fig. 52. SNMP settings.
It will be necessary to have a program installed that al-
lows you to receive and manage the traps generated by
the device.
3.6.6. MODBUS.
In the SLC CUBE4 7,5-20 kVA, SLC TWIN PRO2, SLC
TWIN/3 PRO2 and SLC TWIN RT2 series, the communica-
tion configuration parameters cannot be changed.
You can modify the Modbus address of the slave to which the
NIMBUS is connected in order to read information, as well as
the parameters of the protocol for establishing a connection
to the device. By default, these values already enable correct
communication with the device.
If you wish to make any modifications, consult the settings of
the device in order to ascertain the addresses and configuration
parameters for which information is available.
Fig. 53. Modbus settings.
After changing the address, we recommend restarting
the panel and waiting a few minutes. Do not restart the
NIMBUS card, otherwise you will lose the new values that have
been entered.
Important: Using non-valid values will result in loss of
communication with the device. Before modifying them,
make sure the panel is not in the process of receiving data and
that the correct values as established by the device are known.
Do not modify these values if the panel is in the process of re-
ceiving data.
