KONNEX Configuration modes

1

KONNEX Configuration modes in the frame of a

modular communication stack

Petar TomicKONNEX Scientific Conference 2004



2

Why configuration ?

• One end user application may consist of one or more devices

• Combining of several devices to one application is done by configuring the devices



3

What is configuration ?

• Each devices has to know how it is linked to all other installed devices– Communication addresses

• The behaviour of the device in an application is influenced by it’s settings or parameter

Configuration Example

Device 1

Device 2

O1

O2

O3

I1

I2

I3

I4



5

KONNEX Configuration Modes

• Several configuration modes are defined adjusted to:– the type of installation environment and

– persons performing the installation



6

KONNEX Configuration Modes

• S-mode (System-mode)• E-mode (Easy-mode)

– Controller mode

– Logical tag mode

– …

• A-mode (Automatic-mode)

Functionality

S-mode• Freely programmable• Common tool based• High functionality• well trained

professionals

E-mode• Easy configurable• Simple tool required• Limited functionality• For basic trained

professionals

A-mode• Automatic configuration• Attractive solutions for

loose goods• For consumers

8

S-mode

• Configuration with a common tool– ETS

• Knowledge of functionality– Provided by the installer

• Download of prepared data images– Direct memory access

– Properties



9

S-mode



10

E-mode (controller)

• Configuration– Without a PC

– Controller

• Defined channels in Specification• Knowledge of functionality

– Channel information in each device

– How to link the channel in the controller



11

E-mode



12

A-mode

• Self configuration by the devices• Functional blocks defined in Specification• Knowledge

– Devices have the knowledge how to link to other functional blocks

Configuration modes in a device

Combinations of configuration modes and real existing device lead to to the introduction and definition definitions of

Device Profiles.



19

Device Profiles

• Definition in KONNEX Handbook (Vol. 3, Chapter 6)– S-mode

• BCU 1, BCU 2, BIM M112, Line coupler, …

– E-mode• Controller mode, LTE, logical tag, …

– A-mode• Application resource, Application controller



20

Profile S-mode (BCU 1)

• Resources– Memory

– System tables (Address table, …)

• Configuration mechanism– Physical Address Assignment

– Direct memory access



21

Profile E-mode (0701)

• Resources– Memory

– System tables (Address table, …)

• Configuration mechanism– Physical Address Assignment

– Direct memory access

– Device descriptor 2

– Link Services



22

Profile A-mode (Application resource)

• Domain Address Assignment• Distributed Address Assignment

– Individual Address

• Functional Block Scan• Interface Object Linking• Group Object Linking



23

Implementation//------------------------------------------------------------------

// handling of device model: here 0701

//------------------------------------------------------------------

// mapping of external (EIB) addresses to internal ones

// Initialize the EEPROM

// device interface object

// application interface object

// Emulation of BCU 1 RAM and low ROM

// handle memory mapped load controls

// handle memory mapped run controls

......

//-------------------------------------------------------------------

The Device Profile is chosen by selecting

one Device model and one configuration mode

or a combination of configuration modes.
