Introduction Sample project for RS-485 sensors Txxxx: industrial version (T0410, T4411, T2414, T3411, T3413, T2414, T3419, T5410, T7410, T7411) and interior version (T0418, T3418, T7418) produced by COMET SYSTEM, Ltd. Note: This sample project is prepared especially for T7410 sensor. If your device isn't able to measure some of values, displayed value is not correct (error -999.9, 999.9 - according to firmware version, older FW can display some random number from memory). For RS-232 sensors: industrial version: T0310, T4311, T2314, T3311, T7310, T7311 and interior version:T0318, T3318, T7318 this sample project is also used, but only one sensor can be connected to one COM port. Configuration is almost the same as RS-485, only the adress is always set to 1. Since the sensor is powered by serial line, it is necessary to set DTR and RTS at first, wait for about 2 seconds and connect. 2. TIRS.NET Installation At first, you must install TIRS.NET system from standalone package (Step 1 – Step 5). Please refer to "Installation of system TIRS.NET" manual (also accessible directly with Install instructions button). 3. Installation of sample project for sensor COMET SYSTEM, Ltd. 1. Please download the sample project from our website. 2. Unpack downloaded *.zip archive and run Start.exe.

Sensor address can be modified with COMET utility TSensor. Default setting has address number 1, Modbus protocol. Sample project is created for sensors with address 1 and 2. If you don't want to change the sensor address, you can modify it in the project: 1) Run Notepad from MS Windows. 2) Open file C:\TNPRJ\DEMO_Comet_System_Txxxx_RS_485\Comet_T7410.xml 3) Find the <lpar1>1</lpar> and <lpar1>2</lpar> tags in plc level. Tags lpar1 embedded in another levels has different function. 4) Edit adresses with as you need for yours sensors Txxxx. 5) Save the file. Project uses also serial COM port. After project installation there is COM1 configured. When you need to change it: 1) Run Notepad from MS Windows. 2) Open file C:\TNPRJ\DEMO_Comet_System_Txxxx_RS_485\Comet_T7410_PRJ.tnprj 3) Find the <c> Comet_T7410 ModbusRTU.dll COM1,9600,8,0,2 null XmlConfig.dll "$\TNcfg_Comet_T7410.xml" row. 4) Edit highlighted text above as you need. It is COM port number, Bd/s speed, number of bits, parity (0 none, 1 - odd, 2 - even, 3 - mark, 4 - space) and stop bits (0 - 1, 1 - 1.5, 2 - 2). 5) Save the file. Note: If you have chosen different folder during installation of TIRS.NET PRJ, you must find it at your location. During installation the project is set as active. If the installation disc contains more projects, the last installed project is set as active. 2009 CORAL Ltd., Veverkova 1343, 500 02 Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic, www.coral.cz, [email protected] Page 5 of 17 Sample project - Comet Txxxx RS-485 sensor 4.
