3
BACnet® MS/TP, BACnet/IP, Metasys® N2 by JCI, Modbus TCP/IP, and LonWorks® .
It is not necessary to download any configuration files to support the required applications.
ProtoNode is pre-loaded with tested Profiles/Configurations for the supported devices.
The
We use 2 methods to dynamically configure the ProtoNode to support the devices with the selected
protocol.


Auto-Discovery: Supported RS-485 devices can be automatically detected and identified for
addition to the ProtoNode’s configuration. (Section 1.2)

Web Configurator: For RS-485 devices that are not supported by Auto-Discovery, use a
browser to connect to the ProtoNode’s Web Configurator utility. Select the device(s) from a dropdown list of known profiles and assign a Modbus Node-ID. Then the ProtoNode automatically
builds the configuration to support the device(s) with the desired protocol.

Configuring Device Communications
2.2.1 Set Modbus COM setting on all of the devices connected to the ProtoNode

All of the devices connected to ProtoNode MUST have the same Baud Rate, Data Bits, Stop
Bits, and Parity settings.

Figure 4 specifies the device serial port settings required to communicate with the ProtoNode.

Set the Modbus COM settings on the devices now. When mixing devices, the selected baud
rates are required to match the slowest device (ENVI=9600). When there are no ENVI units
present, the baud rate could be set faster (LOVE end NURO support 19200 and 38400).

o
The ProtoNode’s default settings are 9600 / None / 8 /1
o
Ability to change the ProtoNode’s Device COM settings are offered later in Section

2.3
Selecting the Desired Field Protocol and Enabling Auto -Discovery
2.3.1 Selecting Desired Field Protocol


ProtoNode FPC-N34 units use the “S” bank of DIP switches (S0 – S2) to select the Field
Protocol.
o
See the table in Figure 4 for the switch settings to select BACnet MS/TP, BACnet/IP,
Modbus TCP/IP, or Metasys N2.
o
The OFF position is when the DIP switches are set closest to the outside of the box.
ProtoNode FPC-N35 units do not use the “S” bank DIP switches (S0 – S2) to select a Field
Protocol.
o
On ProtoNode FPC-N35 units, these switches are disabled; the Field Protocol is always
LonWorks.

2.3.2 Enabling Auto-Discovery
There are two methods to activate Auto-Discovery: The first is by using the DIP switches (as described
below) and the second method is by using the Web-Configurator (see Section 5.2.2)
If using the Web-Configurator method, leave the S3 DIP switch in the OFF position.

The S3 DIP switch is used to both enable Auto-Discovery of known devices attached to the
ProtoNode, and to save the recently discovered configuration.
o
See the table in Figure 1 for RS-485 devices that are supported by Auto-Discovery.
o
See the table in Figure 5 for the DIP switch setting to enable Auto-Discovery.
o
If the ProtoNode is being installed for the first time, set S3 to the ON position to enable
Auto-Discovery.
o
The ON position is when the DIP switches are set closest to the inside of the box for the
DIP switch setting to enable Auto Discovery.

Harsco Patterson Kelley’s ProtoNode Startup Guide
2.4
Setting the MAC Address, Device Instance and Baud Rate
2.4.1 BACnet MS/TP (FPC-N34): Setting the MAC Address BACnet Network

Only 1 MAC address is set for ProtoNode regardless of how many devices are connected to
ProtoNode.

Set the BACnet MS/TP MAC addresses of the ProtoNode to a value between 1 to 127 (MAC
Master Addresses); this is so that the BMS Front End can find the ProtoNode via BACnet
auto discovery.

Note: Never set a BACnet MS/TP MAC Address from 128 to 255. Addresses from 128 to
255 are Slave Addresses and can not be discovered by BMS Front Ends that support auto
discovery of BACnet MS/TP devices.

Set “A” bank DIP switches A0 – A7 to assign a MAC Address to the ProtoNode for BACnet
MS/TP.

Please refer to Appendix C.1 for the complete range of MAC Addresses and DIP switch
settings.
Figure 6: MAC Address DIP Switches
NOTE: When setting DIP Switches, please ensure that power to the board is OFF.
Page 14 of 54
Harsco Patterson Kelley’s ProtoNode Startup Guide
2.4.2 BACnet MS/TP and BACnet/IP (FPC-N34): Setting the Device Instance

The BACnet Device Instances will be calculated by adding the Node_Offset (default value is
50,000) to the device’s Modbus Node ID (that was assigned in Section 2.2).

The BACnet Device Instance can range from 1 to 4,194,303.

To assign specific Device Instance values, change the Node_Offset value.
2.4.2.1)
(Section
For example:
o
o
Node_Offset value (default) = 50,000
Device 1 has a Modbus Node-ID of 1
o
Device 2 has a Modbus Node-ID of 22
o
Device 3 has a Modbus Node-ID of 33
o
Given that: Device Instance = Node_Offset + Modbus Node_ID
o
Device Instance, Device 1 = 50,000 + 1 = 50,001
o
Device Instance, Device 2 = 50,000 + 22 = 50,022
o
Device Instance, Device 3 = 50,000 + 33 = 50,033
2.4.2.1
BACnet MS/TP or BACnet/IP: Assigning Specific Device Instances

With the default Node_Offset value of 50,000 the Device Instances values generated will be
within the range of 50,001 to 50,127.

The values allowed for a BACnet Device Instance can range from 1 to 4,194,303.

To assign a specific Device Instance (or range), change the Node_Offset value.

Methods for changing the Node_Offset value are provided in Section 6
o
This step cannot be performed until after the unit is connected and powered.
2.4.3 Metasys N2 or Modbus TCP/IP (FPC-N34): Setting the Node-ID

The Modbus RTU Node-ID’s assigned to the devices attached to the ProtoNode in Section
2.2 will be the Metasy N2 and Modbus TCP/IP Node_ID’s for the field protocols.

Metasys N2 and Modbus TCP/IP Node-ID Addressing: Metasys N2 and Modbus TCP/IP
Node-ID’s range from 1-255.
Page 15 of 54
Harsco Patterson Kelley’s ProtoNode Startup Guide
2.4.4 BACnet MS/TP (FPC-N34): Setting the Baud Rate

“B” bank DIP switches B0 – B3 can be used to set the Field baud rate of the ProtoNode to
match the baud rate required by the Building Management System for BACnet MS/TP.

The baud rate on ProtoNode for Metasys N2 is set for 9600. “B” bank DIP switches B0 – B3
are disabled for Metasys N2 on ProtoNode FPC-N34.


3.2.4 Biasing the Modbus RS-485 Network

An RS-485 network with more than one device needs to have biasing to ensure proper
communication. The biasing only needs to be done on one device.

None of the ENVI’s support biasing. The ProtoNode is required to bias the RS-485 network.

The ProtoNode has 510 Ohm resistors that can be used to set the biasing. The ProtoNode’s
default positions from the factory for the Biasing jumpers are ON.

The biasing MUST always be left set to the ON position.

The ON position is when the 2 RED biasing jumpers straddle the 4 pins closest to the inside of
the board of the ProtoNode. See Figure 11.

3.2.5 End of Line Termination Switch for the Modbus RS-485 port on the
ProtoNode

On long RS-485 cabling runs, the RS-485 trunk must be properly terminated at each end.

The ProtoNode has an End Of Line (EOL) blue jumper. The default setting for this Blue EOL
switch is OFF with the jumper straddling the pins closest to the inside of the board of the
ProtoNode.
o
On short cabling runs the EOL switch does not to need to be turned ON.

If the ProtoNode is placed at one of the ends of the trunk, set the blue EOL jumper to the
ON position straddling the pins closest to the outside of the board of the ProtoNode.

Always leave the single Red Jumper in the A position (default factory setting).

AUTO-DISCOVERY: SAVING RS-485 DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS
There are some RS-485 devices that cannot be recognized by Auto-Discovery; see Section 1.2 for a list
of devices. Devices that cannot be configured by Auto-Discovery are setup by using the Web
Configurator (Section 5).
There are two ways to run Auto-Discovery:

Use the S3 DIP switch to enable Auto-Discovery and save the configuration (Section 2.3.2 + 4.1)

Use the Web-Configurator’s interface to run Auto-Discovery (Section 5.1 + 5.2).
If using the Web-Configurator’s interface, skip Section 4.1 below and go to Section 5.1.
Auto-Discovery with DIP Switch Method: After Completion – Turn Off to Save
Configuration
4.1
The S3 DIP Switch for Enabling Auto-Discovery should have been set in section 2.3.2 before applying
power to the ProtoNode. Do not Enable Auto-Discovery via S3 DIP switch when the unit is powered.

When power is applied to a ProtoNode that is set to Enable Auto-Discovery, it will take about
10 minutes to complete the discovery of all of the RS-485 devices attached to the ProtoNode.

The “TX” LED will flash during Auto-Discovery. The “TX LED will stop flashing when completed.

Once the ProtoNode has discovered all of the RS-485 devices, turn OFF the power supplied to
the ProtoNode and set the S3 DIP switch to the OFF position to save the current configuration.

Then turn the power to the ProtoNode back ON. The stored configuration will be loaded.

For example:
o
Device 1 has a Modbus Node-ID of 1
o
Device 2 has a Modbus Node-ID of 22
o
Device 3 has a Modbus Node-ID of 33
o
Desired Device Instance for 1 device = 1,001
o
Node_Offset (required) = 1,001 – (Modbus Node_ID) = 1,001 – 1 = 1,000
o
The Node_Offset value will be applied to all devices.
o
Device 1 Instance will then be = 1,000 + Modbus Node_ID = 1,000 + 1 = 1,001
o
Device 2 Instance will then be = 1,000 + Modbus Node_ID = 1,000 + 22 = 1,022
o
Device 3 Instance will then be = 1,000 + Modbus Node_ID = 1,000 + 33 = 1,033
