The first PLC program has the all Controlnet configurations between Master and Slaves chassis and is simulating the actual configuration in the SHMS PLC systems; the second PLC program contains the combined network configurations with Slave 1 chassis using a Controlnet module, Slave 2 with Ethernet module, this chassis #3 is simulating the changes that needs to be implemented.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"> </span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;">The results of the test showed that Ethernet module work without any problem when it was used to replace the Controlnet module.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;">The system is able to run with a combined network configuration (Ethernet and Controlnet modules) with no problems. The down period (PLC off line) measured in the test for the PLC was less than 1 min, this is the time needed to download the new version of the PLC program which includes the implementation of the Ethernet module the SHMS PLC I/O chassis. So based in this test, we can follow the previous procedure mentioned (6 steps) and after downloading of the new version of the PLC program to the SHMS PLC shouldn't be any error.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"> </span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;">If you want to check the test running, please let us know and we can go over it </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: rgb(0, 90, 149);">today</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;"> and be done with this check to allow Mike continue with his test in the Standalone PLC test station.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;"><br> <br> </span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;">Best Regards,</span></p><p style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: black;">Pablo</span></p></div><br><br><br><hr id="zwchr"><div><b>From: </b>"Pablo Campero" <campero@jlab.org><br><b>To: </b>"dsg-hallc controls" <dsg-hallc_controls@jlab.org><br><b>Sent: </b>Friday, June 8, 2018 5:05:13 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>[Dsg-hallc_controls] Ethernet vs Controlnet test<br></div><br><div><div style="font-family: georgia,serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><div>Hello,</div><br><div>To test the performance of the Ethernet vs Controlnet for the SHMS PLC systems, Amanda, Tyler and I have done the following:</div><br><ol><li>Set up standalone PLC to mimic how the SHMS PLC system is set up with the controller and I/O modules in different chassis.</li><li> Added DSG-PLC chassis to the standalone PLC system using initially Controlnet network for a total of three chassis (1 controller chassis, and 2 I/O chassis)</li><li>Began development of PLC program to very test system works<br></li></ol><div>Next week DSG plans to swap the Controlnet module with Ethernet module to verify that Standalone PLC can run with one I/O chassis using an Ethernet module and a second I/O chassis using a Controlnet module. </div><br><br><div>Best Regards,</div><div>Pablo</div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>Dsg-hallc_controls mailing list<br>Dsg-hallc_controls@jlab.org<br>https://mailman.jlab.org/mailman/listinfo/dsg-hallc_controls</div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>Dsg-hallc_controls mailing list<br>Dsg-hallc_controls@jlab.org<br>https://mailman.jlab.org/mailman/listinfo/dsg-hallc_controls<br></div><br></div></body></html>
