    2.1 Hardware UnitsThe TAC Xenta 280/300/400 family consists of the following units:

    The TAC Xenta 280/300/401 controller. The controller contains the database of the inputs and outputs of the TAC Xenta system. It also contains the system and application software for all the func-tions that are to be performed by the controller and the connected peripheral units.

    TAC Xenta OP. The operator panel includes control buttons while a screen displays the values and menus. TAC Xenta OP can be connected to any controller in the network.

    I/O expansion modules. These can be used to extend the number of inputs and outputs on a TAC Xenta 300/401 controller.

    The I/O modules are described in a separate manual, TAC Xenta 400 I/O Modules.

  • 2 TAC Xenta Components TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/401A number of controllers and I/O modules can form a local network and exchange data.

    The TAC Xenta OP operator panel allows the user to:

    Obtain access to certain parameters

    Monitor the system status

    Adjust setpoints and time channels

    Display alarms (without communicating with a central system)

    Up to two OPs may be connected to each controller.

    2.2 ConfigurationsThe TAC Xenta controllers can be used in different configurations, for example:

    As stand-alone units (for a TAC Xenta 401 with at least one I/O module).

    With controllers and OPs in a network, with extra I/O modules as required (no I/O modules for the TAC Xenta 280).

    With controllers, OPs, I/O modules and other equipment in a full network with suitable adapters, possibly with connections to a TAC Vista Central System.

  • TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/401 2 TAC Xenta Components 2.3 CommunicationsThe TAC Xenta units communicate with each other in a network using a common bus, Echelon LONWORKS Free Topology 78 kbps (FTT-10). Additional I/O units also connect to the network and may be added as required. An I/O unit can only be associated with one controller.

    Explicit LONTALK messages are used in communications between the operator panel and the controller.

    The LONTALK protocol makes it possible to use Network Variables, defined on foreign equipment.

    The Functional Block applications are modeled as true LONMARK Con-troller Objects.

    The Network Variable interface (including the Standard Network Vari-able Types, SNVTs) can be customized, and External Interface Files (XIFs) can be generated in the field using the TAC Menta tool. Avail-able SNVTs are listed in an appendix to the Engineering Applications in TAC Menta manual.

    When connected to a TAC Vista Central System, the operating con-ditions of equipment such as fans, pumps, and recovery units can be dis-played as graphs on the monitor and printed as reports. All temperatures and alarms may be read, while setpoints and time settings may be altered as required

    TAC Xenta controllers can be reached from TAC Vista in many ways.

    Using LonWorks in the Xenta controller, some examples are:

    From a PCLTA card in some form, directly on the PC.

  • TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/401 3 Technical Description At distances greater than 10 m (32 ft.) between the TAC Xenta control-ler and the OP, an external power supply should be used. In addition, the communications connection has to follow the same rules as for other nodes.

    3.1.3 LED Indicators and Service pin

    The Service pin can be activated through a small hole on the front. Also on the front, there are two LED indicatorsone red and one green.

    The red service diode is primarily an error indication. It also lights up if the Service pin is activated.

    The green status diode blinks once per second to indicate that the pro-gram is running.

    The TAC Xenta 300 has two modular jacksone for the TAC Xenta OP operator panel and one for an RS232 connection with TAC Menta.

    The socket for the operator panel provides it with 24V AC or DC, depending on the supply.

    At distances greater than 10 m (32 ft.) between the TAC Xenta control-ler and the OP, an external power supply should be used. In addition, the communications connection has to follow the same rules as for other nodes.

    3.2.3 LED Indicators and Service pin

    The Service pin can be activated through a small hole on the front. Also on the front are two LED indicatorsone red and one green.

    The red service diode is primarily an error indication. It also lights up if the Service pin is activated.

    The green status diode blinks once per second to indicate that the pro-gram is running.

    4.1 Mounting the ControllerThe TAC Xenta 280/300/401 controller is designed to be mounted on a DIN rail inside a cabinet. The controller can also be mounted directly on a wall. A wide range of standard enclosures meeting DIN 43 880, with different enclosure ratings, are available for wall mounting.

    The enclosure primarily consists of a terminal part containing screw ter-minals, and an electronics part where the printed circuit boards are sit-uated. The enclosure is designed in such a way that the entire electrical installation can be connected to the screw terminals of the terminal part when mounted on a DIN rail or on a wall.

    The operator panel can be mounted in the front of the cabinet or on top of a TAC Xenta controller, or it can be held in the hand.

    When cabinet mounting is used, jumpers may be used between M (mea-surement neutral) terminal pairs, as shown in the figure below. All G0 points have to be connected to protective ground.

    When connecting G0 to ground, each TAC Xenta unit has to its own connection with the ground rail, that is, jumpers cannot be used for the G0 terminals. Please refer to the figure on the next page.

    Several units may share the same ground rail, but every unit with mea-suring inputs and/or analog outputs has to have all its ground connec-tions with the same ground rail.

    In other words, a discontinuity in the ground rail cannot be allowed to split a controller or separate it from the connected units.

    Two cable types have been validated for the TP/XF-1250 channel (for use with the TPT/XF-1250 Bus Topology Transceiver). These cable types are:

    For the TP/FX-1250 Channel operating in a bus topology, the maximum bus length of TIA 568A Category 5 cabling is 130 meters, with a max-imum stub length of 0.3 meters. There are topology restrictions associ-ated with the use of this channel - refer to www.echelon.com.

    A gas discharge tube can be connected in parallel with the resistor for lightning protection.

    A restriction for TP/XF-1250 is the 8-in-16 rule, which says that the number of nodes in an arbitrary 16-meter section of the cable cannot exceed eight.

    If circumstances require that more nodes have to be gathered at a certain part, this can be done in two ways, while still observing the rule.

    1 Add more cable between suitable nodes; remember, though, that the maximum length of the bus is still 130 m.

    2 Split the channel in two by inserting a router in such a way that the rule is observed for each part.

    Free Topology Segment

    In a Free Topology segment only one termination is required and can be placed anywhere on the segment.

    If there is a router or a repeater, it is convenient to put the termination near it, generally on the downstream side.

    If there is a supervisory PC in the segment equipped with a PCLTA board, a termination on the board can be connected for this segment.

    Doubly Terminated Bus Topology Segment

    In a doubly terminated bus topology, exactly two terminations are required one at each end of the segment at the true endpoints.

    TP/FT-10

    The termination is built from the following components, where a total termination impedance of approximately 53 is required.

    Observe polarity shown for C1 and C2. These capacitors are recom-mended.

    Free topology: one termination with R1 = 52,3 W

    Doubly terminated bus topology: two terminations, one on each end of the segment, each with R1 = 105 W.

    A LonWorks termination device (single/double) is available from Schneider Electric, part no. 007309051.

    5.1 OverviewA TAC Xenta 280/300/401 controller is delivered as a freely program-mable controller. A customer-specific application is created using the programming tool TAC Menta.

    A PC that has TAC Menta installed and running is connected, using the Programming Serial Kit cable (part no. 007309200), to the RS232 port of the TAC Xenta controller to be loaded. How this is done is described in the Engineering Applications in TAC Menta manual.

    During the customizing process, the online/simulation mode of TAC Menta can also be used to monitor the input and output status of the TAC Xenta controller. Parameter tuning can also be done from TAC Menta.

    However, the online/simulation mode in TAC Menta still has to use the RS232 port.

    Devices have to be configured in the following situations:

    When there are I/O modules (see sections 5.3 and 5.4 of this man-ual)

    When there are several controllers (see section 5.5 of this manual)

    Note

    Starting from TAC Xenta v 3.1, the application program down-load may also be done from TAC Vista via the network.

    5.2.1 Initial Check

    After the wires have been connected, but before the electronics part has been mounted on the terminal part, perform these checks:

    1 Turn on the power.

    2 Check that the supply voltage, 24V AC or 1940V DC, is con-nected to the proper terminals G and G0.

    3 TAC Xenta 280/300: Check that the voltage levels of the input and output terminals are appropriate, bearing in mind their use and possible preset values.

    4 TAC Xenta 280/300: Check the voltage, both AC and DC, between G0 and the other (labeled) terminals.

    5 Repeat step 4 with G as the reference terminal.

    6 Turn off the power and mount the electronics part on the terminal part.

    7 Turn on the power again.

    8 If previously unloaded, load the program, using TAC Menta, according to the method described in the Engineering Applications in TAC Menta manual.

    9 Check that the green status LED on the front starts to blink, indi-cating that the internal program is running.

    10 If additional I/O-units are used, follow the steps in section 5.4.

    Caution

    TAC Xenta 280/300: It is important that the electronics part has the same input/output configuration as the terminal part.

    5.3.1 Initial Check

    Perform the steps described in section 5.2.1.

    5.3.2 Device Configuration

    Before it can start to communicate, each TAC Xenta unit has to be assigned a network address (a subnet/node address and a device name). This is done using a separate Device Configuration programming tool. The tool is either run on a PC and started from TAC Menta or it is run as a stand-alone tool.

    The procedure is fully explained in the Engineering Applications in TAC Menta manual.

    If two or more units have the same Device name, they have to be given unique names. This is also done using the Device Configuration tool.

    The figure below indicates some of the parameters that are involved. The use of network addresses is explained in the TAC Vista IV, Engi-neering Classic/LNS Networks manuals.

  • 5 Configuring your System TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/4015.3.3 OP Panel Activities

    When an operator panel is connected to a network that includes a num-ber of TAC Xenta controllers, the following will happen:

    1 The operator panel (OP) will send a request to the network for any TAC Xenta controller that is not occupied to start acting as a server and send texts to the operator panel.

    2 The first available Xenta controller will send a list of all the groups in the network. These will be shown on the OP and when one of them has been selected, the TAC Xenta controllers of the group will be shown on the operator panel. As all TAC Xenta con-trollers know which other TAC Xenta controllers are present in the network, an operator panel can be served by any TAC Xenta controller in the network.

    3 From this list, the desired TAC Xenta controller will be chosen by the user, and the controller that first acted as a server will be released from its duties.

    4 The selected TAC Xenta controller will then supply the operator panel with the menu on the highest level in the program.

    5 TAC Xenta 280/300: Select the Temp & Status menu (or equiva-lent) to check that all inputs have reasonable values.

    6 Now select another controller from the top menu and repeat steps 5-6, as many times as required.

    5.4 Additional I/O Units

    5.4.1 Selecting I/O Modules

    There are two types of I/O modules:

    Configured (older, for older versions of the Base unit)

    Unconfigured (newer, for Base units of version 3.2 or higher)

    Note

    The TAC Xenta 280 does not use extra I/O modules.48 (74) Schneider Electric Buildings AB, June 201104-00067-02-en

  • TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/401 5 Configuring your System 5.4.2 Initial Check

    Perform these checks after the wires have been connected to the I/O modules, but before the electronics part has been mounted on the termi-nal part.

    1 Turn on the power.

    2 Check that the supply voltage, 24V AC or 1940V DC, is con-nected to the proper terminals (G and G0).

    3 Check that the voltage levels of the input and output terminals are appropriate, bearing in mind their use and possible preset values.

    4 Check the voltage, both AC and DC, between G0 and all the other terminals.

    5 Repeat steps 1-4 with G as the reference terminal.

    6 Turn off the power and mount the electronics part on the terminal part.

    7 Turn on the power again.

    8 Check the LEDs for the following:

    The red service LED on the front will now blink once.

    The green communication status LED on the front starts flashing rapidly (about 2-3 Hz), indicating that the unit is off-line.

    5.4.3 I/O Module Configuration

    An I/O module always belongs to a specific TAC Xenta controller. Before the module can be utilized, it has to be linked to that controller by using the Device Configuration programming tool. The tool is either run on a PC and started from TAC Menta or it is run as a stand-alone tool.

    Note

    It is important that the electronics part has the same input/output configuration as the terminal part.

  • 5 Configuring your System TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/401The procedure is described in the manual Engineering Applications in TAC Menta.

    In some versions of TAC Xenta OP, these items can also be set from the Service menu. This is described in chapter 6 (IO Module Config) of this manual. Please note that this menu can only be reached from the Service access level.

    The figure below indicates some of the parameters that are involved. The use of network addresses is described in the TAC Vista IV, Engi-neering Classic/LNS Networks manuals.

    About 45 seconds after the configuration procedure has completed, the green LED should start to blink at a rate of about once every other sec-ond. This will indicate that the unit is communicating with the applica-tion in the Base unit.

    5.5 Setting the Date and TimeSet the current date and time from TAC Menta during commissioning (Online mode). The setting affects only the controller that is connected to TAC Menta. Please refer to the Engineering Applications in TAC Menta manual for further details.

    Date and time can also be set from the TAC Xenta OP, if the operator has logged on at the appropriate access level (usually the medium level). For details, refer to the TAC Xenta OP Handbook.

    If the controllers are connected to a supervisory system like TAC Vista, the date and time can be set in all units with one command from TAC Vista.

    A TAC Xenta Master unit broadcasts its clock time once every 24 hours.

    In both cases, the date and time are sent periodically. This will ensure that even if some units are offline when the time data is sent, they will eventually be updated with the values from the central system or, with regards to standalone, from the Master.

    ---- ---- ---- --1- AT OK is set when TAC Xenta has sent an AT command to the modem and received an OK reply. Possible reasons for not receiving AT OK: modem configured to not respond to modem commands.

    ---- ---- ---- -1-- Reset OK is set when AT OK is not set and TAC Xenta has sent an AT&F sequence ordering the modem to reset to the factory defaults, and an OK reply was received. Possible reasons for not receiving Reset OK: RX line not connected in the cable or the modem is config-ured to not respond to modem commands.

    ---- ---- ---- 1--- Init string defined is set when TAC Vista has defined a modem initial-ization string.

    ---- ---- ---1 ---- Init OK is set when the Init string defined is set and TAC Xenta has sent the init string and received an OK reply. Possible reasons for not receiving Init OK: the init string contained a command that has turned replies off, the init string contained an illegal command.

    ---- ---- --1- ---- No contact.

    ---- ---- -1-- ---- Ready.

  • APPENDIX

    A Appendix A Restart Values

    B Appendix B Restart Sequences

  • TAC Xenta, TAC Xenta 280/300/401 A Appendix A Restart Values A Appendix A Restart ValuesThere are two kinds of memory in the controller:

    1 RAMworking memory, current values; the contents will be lost after 72 hours without power

    2 Flash program memory, nonvolatile storage memory

    Certain items which are used in RAM are also saved in the Flash mem-ory when the value is changed, so that they will not be lost during lengthy power outages.

    The Flash memory is also the location of the original application and the trend log definition values. These are the values specified in the most recent application downloaded from TAC Menta.

    During a restart, whether caused by a power outage or by operator demand, it is important to know which start values will apply.

    Below are some examples of the value as taken from RAM, from the value saved in Flash memory, or from the original application value (also in Flash memory).

    Internal status and output values of Function Blocks (may affect the control of actuators, fans, or other equipment)

    PV Blocks, for example, the set values (it may be important not to lose the newly adjusted set values)

    Public parameters (values which affect other nodes of the plant)

    Trend log definition (log channels, log interval, storage area)

    Trend log data (stored values)

    Optimization parameters (automatically adjusted values, taking a long time to settle)

    Time parameters (local time zone, current Daylight Saving Time status)

    Modem parameters (such as phone numbers, dial-up interval, and initialization com-mands)

    During a restart, the system has to have usable start values in the work-ing areas of RAM. The start values used will depend on:Schneider Electric Buildings AB, June 2011 63 (74)04-00067-02-en

    Original application

    All start values are retrieved from the original application values resident in the Flash memory. All SNVT bindings (version 3.0 and later) are erased.

    Original application means the most recent application that has been downloaded from TAC Menta.

    (If no application has been loaded, there is always the LonMark Plant Controller application shipped from the factory.)
