DATASHEET
IEC 60870-5-104 Server
for Quantum
PTQ-104S
The IEC 60870-5-104 Server Communication Module allows compatible
processors to interface easily with IEC 60870-5-104 protocol-compatible
hosts. Developed under license from Schneider Electric, the module
incorporates proprietary backplane technology that enables powerful data
access to the Quantum processor.
The PTQ-104S module acts as an input/output module between the IEC-
60870-5-104 Ethernet network and the processor. Data transfer between the
module and the processor is asynchronous from the actions on the network.
Databases are defined by the user for the module to hold data as required by
the protocol.
Features
Benefits
Hot-Standby
Allows module to be controlled by a secondary Quantum processor in the event of a main
processor failure.
Personality Module
Incorporates a non-volatile Compact Flash memory for storing the module's setup and
network configuration data (or personality)
Allows restoring of a module by simply exchanging the Personality Module with no need to
use PC or re-configure.
Supports unsolicited messages,
either cyclic or spontaneous
Optimized communicating for efficient bandwith usage on WAN networks
Event time-stamping configurable
by type
More accurate information for sequence of events reporting
Configuration
ProSoft Configuration Builder (PCB) provides a PC-based software configuration
solution for quick and easy management of module configuration files, as well as
viewing communication and network diagnostics.
PCB is not only a powerful solution for new configuration files, but also allows you to
import information from previously installed (known working) configurations into new
projects.
General Specifications
Single Slot - Quantum backplane compatible
The module is recognized as an Options module and has access to PLC memory
for data transfer
Local rack - The module must be placed in the same rack as processor
Compatible with all common Quantum programming packages, including Concept
(version 2.6 or higher), Unity Pro (version 2.2 or higher), ProWORX (version 2.20 or
later), and ModSoft
Quantum data types supported: 3x and 4x
High speed data transfer across backplane provides quick data update times
Personality Module - a non-volatile industrial-grade Compact Flash (CF) card used
to store network and module configuration for easy disaster recovery, allowing
quick in-the-field product replacement by transferring the CF card.
Supports Hot-Standby processors or applications using Unity Pro
Functional Specifications - PTQ-104S
The PTQ-104S module accepts data read/write commands from a Master/Client on the
network. In addition, the module can be configured to generate unsolicited messages in
either a spontaneous or cyclic fashion.
The module has 4000 words of user defined internal register space that are accessible
to the protocol driver and to the Quantum processor memory. Any of the supported
database types can be individually located (within the total database size limit of 4000
words) and each database point is mapped within the module and can be assigned to
one or more groups. The supported database point types are:
