2. Description of the CDA70 radio modem


2.1. General
The CDA70 radio modem is a device for wireless data transmission. Communication between
two radio modems is a simplex one and is carried out on a single frequency. Modems work in frequency
band of 400 to 470 MHz. Transmission rate is 21.7 kbit/sec when using the FFSK modulation and
channel spacing 20 and 25 kHz or 10.8 kbit/sec when using channel spacing 12.5 kHz. Transmission
rate is 10.8 kbit/sec when using the GMSK modulation and channel spacing 20 and 25 kHz or 5.4
kbit/sec when using channel spacing 12.5 kHz. Transmission power output of the radio modem is
adjustable from 10 mW to 5 W.
The CDA70 radio data modem is controlled by a 32-bit communication processor providing
communication on the radio channel and individual interfaces. The CDA70 modem has three serial data
interfaces RS232 (communication ports) and one with direct attachment of input/output peripherals for
data collection and CIO technological process control. It is possible to set transfer parameters and
communication protocol separately for each port. As a result, you may use the radio modem to
communicate with various user interfaces using different communication protocols on the serial
interface.
The communication protocol used for communication between modems on the radio channel
provides for access of the modem to the radio channel, collision solving, retranslations and other
functions necessary for cooperation of modems within a radio data network. It allows creating of a large
network on a single radio channel and independent operation of multiple radio networks on a single
frequency.

2.2. Description of individual components

2.2.1. Radio component


Working frequency of the radio component is synthetizer-controlled separately for reception
and transmission. It is tuneable within a broad frequency band (see Technical parameters table). Several
levels of the radio module transmitter power output can be set (from 10 mW to 5 W). The controlling
microcomputer program controls setting of the working frequency and transmitting power output. The
radio module supplies the microcomputer with information on the radio signal level being received
(RSSI – Received Signal Strength Indicator). This information is used for measuring of the signal
strength between individual nodes of the radio network.

2.2.2. Modem component


The modem part converts digital bit flow from the microcomputer to the FFSK or GMSK
analogue modulation, which is brought to the transmitter of the radio data module. And vice versa, it
converts analogue signal from the receiver to digital bit flow to the microcomputer. The modem part is
designed on the basis of a CML integrated circuit.

2.2.3. Microcomputer
The base of the radio data modem controlling microcomputer is represented by a 32-bit
processor with 1 MB of RAM, 512 kB of FLASH ROM and real time clock circuit with a back-up
power supply.
On one side, the microcomputer is connected to the radio data module via the modem
component; on the side of user interface, it is connected to circuits generating signals within the RS232
standard levels. The microcomputer provides for connection of up to three user interfaces via three
RS232 communication ports. All ports are terminated by RJ45 connectors marked COM1, COM2 a
COM3. All RS232 ports are protected against overvoltage incoming via data cable. If a device with

- 5- 7.2.2005
CDA70 Radio data modem Description of the CDA70 radio modem
RS485/422 interface is to be connected, a level converter suitable for the appropriate application can be
connected to the serial port. Different converters will be used in case of connection on a short distance
or in case galvanic separation is necessary. The modem's microcomputer can be set for necessary
control of the converter (RS485). To each interface, a device with different communication protocol can
be connected - i.e. the microcomputer can also work as a converter of protocols between individual
serial ports. The wide range of radio modem functions can be set via any of RS232 communication
ports.
In addition, the microprocessor manages numerous functions of servicing and installation
purposes. Apart from other important information, the microcomputer memory records data
transmission statistics, strength of signals from individual radio modems, statistics of communication on
individual serial ports, power failures, voltage of backup power source and temperature inside the radio
data modem. See Service manual for description of service functions.
Configuration of the CDA70 radio data modem is stored in the permanent FLASH ROM
memory. See the Configuration of radio modem chapter for description of its settings.

2.2.4. Inputs and outputs for telemetry


As an option, customers may wish to install inputs and outputs for data collection and
controlling of technological processes in the radio modem. These signals are then led to an RJ45
connector marked I/O. Five signals are led to this connector. Each of them can be used either as input or
output. Input is analogue 0 to 5V or digital with adjustable threshold. The output is an open collector
able to switch up to 500 mA. Reading and control of I/O signals is possible both via the radio data
network and from any serial RS232 interface. Two radio data modems can make up a simple technology
control, where changes on one modem input signals can control remote output signals of the other
modem and vice versa.
For multi-purpose usage, we supply an interface between the I/O connector and the technology
providing configurable voltage and current inputs, inputs for resistance measurement (thermometers,
barometers etc.), binary inputs with optical isolation and relay outputs. With the equipment you may
establish simple telemetry at low cost, without the use of industrial control automat.

2.2.5. User interface protocols


For user interface, a range of standard protocols is implemented:
• AT modem
• PROFIBUS
• MBUS
• MODBUS
• Asynchronous transparent line
• Transparent bus
• Sauter
• IWKA
• SBUS
• RADOM
• RDS
New protocols, currently not supported by the radio modem, can be implemented according to
the customer's needs.

2.5. Antenna connection


Antenna is connected to the radio data modem via a BNC connector located on the side panel.

2.6. Power supply


Supply voltage working range of the radio modem is +10.8 to +15.6V dc (12V accumulator).
Current consumption during reception is 190 mA. During transmission, current consumption depends
on the transmission output (1500 mA for 5 W). For proper function, it is necessary that the power source
can supply peak current of 2000mA.

2.7. Configuration of radio modem


The Radwin configuration program has been designed to set up the CDA70 radio data modem.
The software is created for MS WINDOWS NT/98/ME/2000/XP platforms. See User manual -
Radwin software for description of the software. A service cable is designated to connect the modem
with a PC. After the service cable is connected to any of the three RS232 serial ports and the service SW
runs on the connected PC, it is possible to execute not only all the needed radio modem settings but
service interventions in the radio data network as well.

CDA70 Radio data modem CIO - analogue inputs and binary outputs

3. CIO - analogue inputs and binary outputs


3.1. Introduction
CDA70 is equipped with a user interface (I/O) for scanning and processing of analogue signals
and for controlling (setting) of binary signals. The user can use five adjustable inputs outputs, which are
placed on the I/O connector at the back panel of the module. It is possible to use INAC (NAP230) signal
on the supply connector for checking the presence of DC voltage for power source (can be functional
only if there is accumulator supply backup). Output binary signal PWRSV is linked on the same
connector (open collector) for automatic disconnection of the whole device from supply voltage. The
signal can be used for applications where minimizing of electric power input is crucial. Internal
analogue values accessible to the user are also included in the concept of external signal processing and
control. These are represented by values of direct supply voltage on the CDA70 (NAP12) input and
temperature inside the module (TEP).

3.2. Description of multi-purpose signal evaluation and reception


On the input/output, there are five signals, which can be processed and controlled by settings of
the CIO module. It is possible to control these signals remotely or to send their values in the data form
to a remote location of a data network.
Each of the five signals can be configured as an analogue input, binary input or binary output.
All five signals may also be set individually as necessary. Some signals can be input and other can be
output at the same time.

3.2.1. Analogue input


Every 100 msec, the voltage value of the analogue input is read, converted to a digital decabit
value and adjusted by the calibration constant. The value is further average computed according to user
setting and saved in the computer memory. The basic range of the input voltage is 0 to 5V.
Following a signal change by a value bigger than the default hysteresis, a change event is
generated. The change under defined module settings generates report on values of all active signals and
sends it to the defined destination.
Even if the input signal is analogue-processed, it has a binary interpretation saved in the
memory. This is created by comparing the signal value to the control level set. At CIO data reception,
both analogue and binary values of active signals are saved to the report. It is possible to set CIO
parameters in order that the resulting binary value is inverted.

3.2.2. Binary output


Binary output is implemented by a transistor with open collector connected to I/O signal. When
inactive (log 0), the transistor does not conduct and acts like an opened switch. When active (log 1), the
transistor acts like a switch connecting the I/O signal to the ground (GND). In both cases, the I/O value
is measured as an analogue input too. The status of the switched circuit is being checked this way.
Maximum switched current of the output is 500mA. Maximum voltage allowed at the transistor
collector equals the supply voltage of the modem, i.e. typically 12V.
It is possible to set the CIO parameters so that the binary value is inverted.

3.3. Measuring other CDA70 signals
3.3.1. Measuring the supply voltage
In CDA70, two more signals are evaluated. The first one is called NAP12 (DC SUPLY); it is an
internal one and it measures the supply voltage at the supply terminals of CDA70. The measuring range
is 0 to 20V. The supply voltage value influences the function of CDA70. If it drops under the set value,
the VF module is disconnected because its correct function is no longer secured and thereby, at the same
time, the discharge current of a backup battery (if used) is decreased.
The second one is NAP230 (AC SUPLY) linked to the supply connector (see the supply
connector description). The measuring range is 0 to 20V. The signal is protected against overvoltage by
a protective element, which blocks the voltage higher than 16V. NAP230 is designed for measuring of
network supply voltage presence. A change of the value is recorded into CDA70 statistics as a dropout
and start (rise) of the 230V supply voltage.
Beware - it is impossible to connect 230V supply voltage directly to the input!

3.3.2. Measuring internal CDA70 temperature


The temperature measuring inside the CDA70 unit is performed to secure correct function of the
radio module. If the temperature exceeds the set decision level, the VF module is disconnected from the
supply voltage, because its correct function is no longer guaranteed above such temperature. At the
same time, it is thus protected against damage due to thermal overload.

Whereas: AD…analogue/digital converter value


T …temperature measured

3.3.3. Measuring DSR output signal level


On CDA70 side, DSR signals on individual user interfaces are output signals. They are not
internally controlled. Individual signals are connected via 560 ohms resistors to the 12V supply voltage
(the same voltage as at the supply connector of CDA70).
Due to the loading of DSR output by a 100 ohm resistor to the earth, the supply voltage on the
output drops to 2V. CDA70 recognises the connection of the service cable and initiates the
communication on this user interface using the ARNEP protocol with defined communication
parameters. It is forbidden for user applications to load the output so that the voltage would drop below
3V. The signal can be used for user applications within the range of 3V to 12V.
As well as the other signals, DSR values are accessible within CIO communication reports (see
the ARNEP protocol description).

3.4. Output signal for disconnection of supply voltage


The only exclusively "output" signal is PWRSV (Power Save). The signal is linked to the
supply connector (see the supply connector description). It is connected as universal I/O signal outputs.
This is an open collector that switches PWRSV signal to the ground (GND). The output is controlled by
a report, similarly to I/O outputs.
The basic function is the possibility to switch off the supply in case of an application supplied
solely from the accumulator, requiring minimum possible consumption. CDA70 performs
communication after which it switches the supply off. The supply has to be switched on again by a user
device in case the communication is required.
In general, this output can be used to control technology.

CDA70 Radio data modem CIO - analogue inputs and binary outputs

3.6. Setting CIO parameters


3.6.1. Activation of CIO signals
All CIO signals have activity feature. In case a signal is active, its value is recorded in the CIO
status report. Only when the active signal changes, CIO may automatically generate a corresponding
report. In case a signal is not set as active, no matter how big a change, it will not generate any change
feature.

3.6.2. CIO communication parameters


The CIO block functions in every CDA70, independently of settings of user interfaces. CIO
communication parameters settings decide whether the information on measured signal values will be
sent to a remote user interface.
From the communication viewpoint, the CIO block operates in two modes: in the passive mode,
CIO sends measured information only upon the request of a remote station. In the active mode,
messages are generated based on changes of measured active signals, or regularly according to a set
time period.
For the method of requesting CIO values, see the ARNEP protocol.

3.6.3. CIO active mode parameters

Parameter name Set values Meaning of parameter


range
Auto operation YES/NO In case the parameter is set to (YES), CIO operates in the active
mode and the following parameters will influence its function. In
the other case, the following parameter settings have no influence
over CIO function. There are two exceptions: "NulTime On" and
"NulTime" parameters, which are connected with the functioning
of outputs and are independent of the "Auto operation"
parameter.
After-change YES/NO When set to (YES), CIO generates the report always when there
report is a change to any active signal by a value higher than hysteresis.
Send to CIO YES/NO When set to (YES), the report is sent to a defined remote CIO
block. The remote CIO block settings must be appropriate.
It is possible to send the report either to a remote CIO block, or to
a remote user interface. Using both options simultaneously is
impossible.
Send to port YES/NO When set to (YES), the report is sent to a defined remote user
interface. The protocol settings of the remote CDA70 user
interface must be appropriate.
It is possible to send the report either to a remote CIO block, or to
a remote user interface. Using both options simultaneously is
impossible.
Second station YES/NO If the parameter is set to (YES), the message is also sent to the
other (the second) remote CDA70. All other set parameters are
the same for both destination addresses.

- 17- 7.2.2005
CDA70 Radio data modem CIO - analogue inputs and binary outputs

NulTime On YES/NO The parameter affects output I/O signals. If set to (YES), the
value of outputs is correct, if its regular renewal is being
performed from a remote CDA70 in a shorter period than set in
the NulTime parameter. In case the module does not accept the
new output value within the time, the outputs are set to inactive
mode. The method protects connected technology in case of
unwanted communication failure.
In case the parameter is not set (NO), automatic zeroing of
outputs will not be applied.
Parameter function does not depend on the "Auto operation"
parameter setting.
COM 1 to 3 The parameter defines number of source module user interface
according to which source address will be included in the report.
Log. number 1 1 to 254 Destination address of the first user interface where CIO-
generated report will be sent.
Log. number 2 1 to 254 Destination address of the second user interface where CIO-
generated report will be sent.
MinTime [msec] 0 to 6553500 Time hysteresis after which CIO may generate new report The
shortest period for transmitting the reports.
MaxTime [msec] 0 to 6553500 Period after which CIO always generates the report, even when
there is no change of an active signal.
NulTime [sec] 0 to 2550 A timeout for regular setting of outputs. See the NulTime On
parameter.

3.7. Connecting CIO signals to user device


It is not appropriate and often even possible to connect I/O interface signals directly to the user
device. To measure current, resistance, broader ranges of voltage, it is necessary to insert electronic
circuits, which adjust the measured quantities to voltage ranging from 0 to 5V and also protect inputs
against disturbing influences and dangerous overvoltage. Moreover, it is also necessary to insert
electronic circuits for operating the power parts of the user interface because a transistor with the open
collector is able to switch current up to 500mA and voltage up to 20V.
Two additional CIO modules, which form an interface between a user's device and I/O signals,
are created for the practical use of I/O signals

Name Type Description


CIO ANI Analogue Analogue differential input for small voltage, current and resistance
input measuring. It includes differential amplifier with adjustable power 1 to
10000. Exact current source 0.1 to 3 mA can be used to measure resistance.
Configuration of the input signals, amplification and current source is carried
out through resistance net. Presence of the input signal relevant to A/D
converter working range is signalled by LED on the front panel. Input circuits
are protected against short-time over voltage by suppressors and against the
long-time one by a reverse fuse.

CDA70 Radio data modem Complaints procedure

6. Complaints procedure
Dear customer,
The product you have purchased had passed manufacturer's tests and its functions had been
checked by our technician before sale. In case any defect shows up during the guarantee period that
prevents normal use we ask you to follow the Complaints procedure when registering your claim.
To make a possible complaint procedure easier please make sure when taking over the product
that your vendor has duly filled in all the relevant parts of the warranty, including date, seal and
signature.
Rights and obligations based on the guarantee are governed namely by the provisions of
sections 616 to 627 Civil Code and the provisions of sections 15 to 19 of the Act Nr. 634/1992 Coll. on
consumer's protection. By providing the guarantee no rights of the purchaser are affected that relate to
the purchase under special laws.
This Complaints procedure relates to the purchased products. This Complaints procedure does
not relate to the services provided.
Guarantee period of the products
Guarantee period of 24 months from the date of purchase is provided for the device, source,
antenna, data cable and possible accessories. The date of purchase is at the same time date of takeover.
Registering a claim
It is necessary to register your claim at the vendor where the subject of the complaint has been
purchased. Customer shall present duly filled warranty and the complete subject of the complaint.
Subject of the complaint shall be presented in a condition adequate to that at the moment of purchase.

Caution!!!!!
The vendor is not responsible for keeping individual settings or data saved in the subject of the
complaint.

The customer is obliged to clarify the defect or how it is displayed and what claim he intends to
register.
Processing the complaint
The vendor shall provide free remedy depending on particular conditions, or replace the subject
of the complaint for a new product, or settle the matter in another manner in compliance with the Civil
Code and the Act on consumer's protection.
As of the moment the claim is registered by the customer and the subject of the complaint is
taken over by the vendor the guarantee period stops running. The guarantee period continues on the date
of takeover of the repaired subject of the complaint or replaced faultless product by the customer, or
should it not be taken over on the date the customer is obliged to take over the repaired or replaced
product. In case the vendor replaces the subject of the complaint for a new product, the original subject
of the complaint becomes property of the vendor and the new product becomes property of the
purchaser. New guarantee period starts from takeover of the new product. In cases when the vendor
settles the matter upon agreement with the customer by replacement of the subject of the complaint for a
faultless product, the new guarantee expires
1. after 12 months since the replaced product was taken over by the customer
2. on the date when the original guarantee period (subject of the complaint) would have
expired should it not have been replaced, whichever comes first.

customer is obliged to pay demonstrable cost related to expert assessment of the claimed
defect.
5. In case defect is found when processing the complaint that is not covered by the guarantee
(extra-warranty repair), the vendor shall inform the customer and the customer shall
inform the vendor whether he/she wishes to have the defect repaired for the price set. A
protocol shall be made on exact conditions of the extra-warranty repair and signed by both
the customer and the vendor. Should the customer not require remedy through extra-
warranty repair under the conditions, the device shall be returned to him/her after he/she
pays the demonstrable cost of expert assessment.
