DigitronCplMaster

Purpose

Azbil Yamatake Digitron CPL instrument address read and write driver

Open the plugin

Enter "Development Configuration → Collection Configuration", create a device and select "DigitronCplMaster" in "Collection Plugin".

Supported channels and data types

Channel typePre-configuration check
Serial PortConfirm that the serial port is not occupied by other programs and maintains the same baud rate, data bits, stop bits and parity bits as the device.
TCP ClientConfirm network reachability of the device IP, port, and gateway to the device.
TCP serverConfirm that the local listening address and port are available, and allow on-site devices to actively connect to the gateway.

Optional data types: Int16, UInt16, Int32, UInt32, Int64, UInt64, Float, Double, String

Plugin properties

Protocol parameters

SettingDescription
Default station numberDefault: 1; Range: 0~255; Fill in: text input. Default station number; two-digit hexadecimal line format, the address can be overwritten with s=0..255

Connection configuration

SettingDescription
DTU IDFill in: text input. Sets the identifier used to identify the current device connection through the DTU service.

Address rules

  • Digitron CPL addresses use decimal WORD locations, such as 0, 100, 65520.
  • You can use s=0..255; to overwrite the default station number, for example, s=2;100; non-two-byte types automatically occupy consecutive WORDs.
  • A single RS/WS can access up to 16 WORD, and larger collection ranges are executed separately according to the read plan.
  • The current protocol does not support Boolean bit addresses, writes must consist of complete WORD.

Functions

FunctionPurpose
Read and writeRead a confirmed point and write only to an approved test point.
MessagesView sent and received frames, protocol fields, and error details.

Device debug

Enter "Development Configuration → Collection Configuration", select the current device and click "More Functions", then open "Debug".

Dedicated debugging page

Open Development Configuration → Collection Configuration, select the device, and open More Functions → Debug. The following image shows the plugin-specific debug page.

Verify the configuration

Use a confirmed on-site address to perform reading. The return value, data type and byte order should be consistent with the point list; after the writable point is written, it should be read back according to on-site requirements.

Troubleshooting

  • Address reading failed: Check the station number, register or node ID one by one according to the address rules on this page, and confirm that the data type is consistent with the device point list.
  • The serial port device does not respond: Confirm that the serial port is not occupied, and check the baud rate, data bits, stop bits and parity bits.
