 Introduction

Introduction
The configuration of the new tank inventory system consists of
modular parts:
• Entis Pro
• CIU Plus
• CIU Prime
• field instrumentation

Entis Pro This system displays calculated data from the CIU Plus. It is a
Windows®NT based program, displaying data in windows, boxes,
tables, graphs, etc.

CIU Plus This unit calculates volume and mass. It requests input data from the
CIU Prime and calculates all other data. It presents data to higher
layered systems like Entis Pro, SCADA, DCS, ENSITE, etc.

CIU Prime This unit is an interface between the field instrumentation (e.g. 854
ATG, 873 SmartRadar, etc.) and inventory systems (CIU Plus, PLC,
ENSITE, etc.).

Host ports Two fixed RS-232C/RS485 host ports interface to a CIU Plus, PLC,
ENSITE, etc.

Field ports Up to four field ports can be installed to interface the Enraf field bus (BPM Bi-
Phase Mark). By changing one or more field ports by an RS-232C/RS485 field
port, the CIU Prime can interface the 858 CIU (Communications Interface Unit).

Automatic polling After configuration, the CIU Prime automatically performs the polling of
the connected gauges and stores the information in a database. For a
description of the configuration and programming, refer to the
instruction manual Ensite Pro.

Field instrumentation
The instruments in the field collect data such as level, temperature,
density and/or pressure. The instruments are based on several
principles: mechanical, servo, radar, hydrostatic and capacitive or a
combination. The instruments measure the data and transmit it upon
request of higher layered systems.

 Safety

Safety
Safety aspects of the CIU Prime

Do not use the CIU Prime other than originally intended.

The protection class for the CIU Prime housing is IP30 (NEMA 1),
which means that the CIU Prime can only be installed indoor in an
explosion safe area or in a protective cabinet.

Other environmental parameters are:

- ambient temperature: 0...60 °C
- relative humidity: 5...90 % (non condensing)
- over voltage category: II
- pollution degree: II

The field ports of the CIU Prime are galvanically separated. The host
ports of the CIU Prime do not have galvanic separation.

Modification to the CIU Prime may only be carried out by authorized

personnel.
Failure to adhere to this will invalidate the approval certificate.

Personal safety
The technician must have basic technical skills to be able to safely
operate the equipment and work in accoradance with the (local)
requirements for electrical equipment.

Take all necessary personal protection measures and apply to the

safety regulations, valid for the working area.

Never start working before the work permit is signed by all parties.

Statuses of data
Each measured and each calculated entity in the CIU Prime contains a
16 bits status register.
High byte The high byte, the validity byte, is used to indicate if the data of this
entity is available (valid) and, if not, to indicate why the data is not
available (invalid).
Low byte The low byte is used to indicate the status of the data.

Validity byte
The data validity byte is a hexadecimal number.
If the validity byte is >=80HEX , the related data is invalid. If the data of
an entity is invalid, all derived data shows the same code in its data
validity byte and the status indicates how the data field should be
displayed (‘FFFF’, blanks, etc.).
If the validity byte is <80HEX , the related data is valid. Then additional
information is given.

Some examples are listed below. If the complete list is required

contact Enraf BV.

Status byte
The data status byte is bit coded. The meaning of the bits depends on
the validity byte (<80HEX or >=80HEX)

Status Validity < 80HEX Validity >= 80HEX

Bit Description (bit set) Description (bit set)
7 Uncalibrated Generate Alarm
6 Manual No Data Available
5 Killed
4 Over Range
3 Under Range
2 Un-initialised
1 Stored
0 Reduced Accuracy

Validity < 80HEX represents valid data.

Suggested characters to display:
- uncalibrated = ‘#’
- manual = ‘&’
- stored = ‘S’
- reduced accuracy = ‘?’

The data status basically exists of two parts which should be displayed
in tabular data in two separate columns:
- bit 7, which indicates whether the data is calibrated or not
- bit 6...0, which (in decreasing priority) tell something about the
physical status of the data.

Validity >= 80HEX represents invalid data.

Suggested characters to display: ‘FFFF’ or ‘blanks’

ID53,60,61,62,63 and 64 are available in CIU Prime firmware version

1.002 and higher.
In CIU Prime firmware versions up to 1.001 ID50 was available. ID50
is identical to ID64 in CIU Plus firmware versions 1.002 and higher.

Scaling and offset

Scaling and offset are defined as follows:
• The value of the data that will be available for the user is
calculated as follows:
Register value = (data * scaling) + offset
• Per selected data entitya scaling and offset value can be
entered. These entered values are used for calculating the
register value.
• The original data measured or calculated by the CIU Prime is
available in the dimension and resolution as defined by the
dimension table.
• This data is represented in the requested representation in the
output registers.

Maintenance / trouble shooting

Maintenance The CIU Prime requires neither preventive nor periodical maintenance.

Cleaning of the housing of the CIU Prime should be done with a moist
cloth only.

Trouble shooting If something appears to be wrong, proceed as follows:

1. Check mains voltage: yes -> step 2
no -> check/replace
fuses
2. Check cabling: not connected -> connect
connected -> step 3
3. Check communication: yes -> finish
no -> step 4
4. Start ‘Ensite Pro’
5. Go to ‘Diagnostic data’
6. Press the ‘Update’-button to have the current values
7. Press the ‘Print’-button to store the data
8. Contact Enraf with diagnostic data.

After switching on of the CIU Prime it will take approximately 1 minute

before it will be able to communicate via the host ports.

The ´Alive´ LED (green LED under the red power LED) gives an
indication if the CIU Prime is in healthy condition.
In case healthy the LED will flash about every 0.75 second).
Note that the healthy flash rhythm is different from the flash rhythm of
the Alive LED on the CIU Plus.
