2 CONNECTION CABLES FOR DISPLAY DEVICES

Note the following points for an Ethernet connection:

 The maximum cable length is 100 m | 328 ft.

 Longer cables can lead to data loss and thus to a limitation of the measurement results.

 Active repeaters (with signal amplification) must be connected between the individual cables to prevent data loss.

 The first Ethernet cable from the measuring device must not exceed 95 m | 311 ft to the first repeater, since
internal cabling in the measuring device must be taken into account in case of possible data loss.

SLAVE address (preset) = 50

The SIKORA measuring device acts as SLAVE. The SLAVE address is set to the above-mentioned value, this value can
be changed to any value from 0…125 using the diagnostic interface.

The required projecting files for the SIKORA measuring device are supplied on the delivered SIKORA DOCU STICK.
While using the projecting files, you can select from the amount of data modules for data transmission listed in this
instruction manual.

3.1 INTERFACE
Serial interface RS485 Profibus DP
Socket ST4 Assignment Description
Pin 3 = Profibus A - (B,P) 9 pol. D-Sub connector
Pin 5 = GND Configuration via diagnostic interface
Pin 6 = +5 V
Pin 8 = Profibus B - (A,N)
The device interface supplies the voltage needed for the Profibus load resistances. The load resistances themselves
are not integrated.

In order to keep a reliable system SIKORA recommend installing a terminating element, like for instance the
Siemens "Load Resistance for Profibus" Order No. 6ES7972-0DA00-AA0.

If an Actor or Sensor is used as terminating element for the bus system, removing this element will not remain without
consequences.

To use a Profibus DP interface an accordant hardware assembly is necessary!

3.2 TELEGRAM STRUCTURE

Transmission mode L2-Bus (RS485)
Transmission range up to 1.5 Mbit/s with auto detection
Access mode MASTER-SLAVE principle (measuring device as SLAVE)

The documentation can be found on the SIKORA DOCU STICK at category Fieldbus

5 SC400 (ASCII) PROTOCOL

The SC400 data communication between the SIKORA measuring device and other data devices will be realized via
Serial interface RS485 with recorded data transmission.

The appropriate device acts as MASTER and sends request telegrams to the SIKORA measuring device. The
measuring device only sends a telegram to the MASTER as reaction answer for the request.

Theoretically the data transfer rate is limited by the Baud rate only.

5.1 TELEGRAM STRUCTURE

Transmission mode START-STOP asynchronous without hardware handshake
Transmission range max. 1000 m (3280 feet)
Connection cable DUE 4503 Li2Y(St)+CY or LIFYCY
Access mode MASTER-SLAVE principle (measuring device as SLAVE)
Data security Parity bit, checksum sign
Format ASCII code 1 2 ............ n x z
1 = Start bit
2 = First data bit LSB
n = last data bit MSB
x = Parity bit
z = Stop bit

The following parameters can be set:

Number of data bit 7/8
Parity bit EVEN / ODD / NO / MARK / SPACE
Stop bit 1 / 1.5 / 2
Transmission speed 2400 / 9600 / 14400 / 19200 / 115200 Baud (bit/s)

STX : START OF TEXT 02 hex ETX : END OF TEXT 03 hex
ACK : ACKNOWLEDGE 06 hex SUB : SUBSTITUTE 1A hex
NAK : NEGATIVE ACKNOWLEDGE 15 hex BCC : BLOCK CHECK CHARAKTER

5.3 CHECKSUM BYTE BCC

The checksum byte is calculated as follows (xor = Exclusive Or):

Checksum =
IDB1 xor IDB2 ... xor DB1 ...xor DBn
xor ETX with setting sent by MASTER
resp.
IDB1 xor IDB2 xor IDB3 xor ETX with request sent by MASTER

IDB1 xor IDB2 ... xor NAK xor ETX with reaction or setting or if ID is
missing (sent by SLAVE)

DB1 ... xor DBn xor ETX with reaction on request

(sent by SLAVE)

Checksum < 20H?

(yes) (no)

BCC = Checksum + 20H BCC = Checksum

5.4 TIME OUT

Data transmission is subject to following time-out criteria:

A. Maximum permissible delay time between two characters within a telegram:

adjustable 200 / 500 / 1000 / 2500 ms
If this criterion is fulfilled, the receiver waits for a new telegram start.

B. Maximum permissible delay time between receiving the last character of a request telegram and sending the
first character of the according reply: 500 ms
If this criterion is fulfilled, the sender reacts by sending a request telegram again.

DATA COMMUNICATION

.

6 USSC (BINARY) PROTOCOL

The USSC data communication between the SIKORA measuring device and other data devices will be realized via
the Serial interface RS485.

The appropriate device acts as MASTER and sends request telegrams to the SIKORA measuring device. The
measuring device only sends a telegram to the MASTER as reaction answer for the request.

Theoretically the data transfer rate is only limited by the Baud rate.

6.1 TELEGRAM STRUCTURE

Transmission mode START-STOP asynchronous without hardware handshake
Transmission range max. 1000 m (3280 feet)
Connection cable DUE 4503 Li2Y(St)+CY or LIFYCY
Access mode MASTER-SLAVE principle (measuring device as SLAVE)
Data security Parity bit, checksum sign
Format 1 2 ............ n x z
1 = Start bit
2 = First data bit LSB
n = last data bit MSB
x = Parity bit
z = Stop bit

The parameters are:

Number of data bit 8 {fix value}
Parity bit NO {fix value}
Stop bit 1 {fix value}
Transmission speed 115 kBaud / 153 kBaud / 750 kBaud (bit/s) {adjustable}

TIME OUT .

6.2 TIME OUT

Data transmission is subject to following time-out criteria:

A. Maximum permissible delay time between two characters within a telegram:

adjustable 200 / 500 / 1000 / 2500 ms
If this criterion is fulfilled, the receiver waits for a new telegram start.

B. Maximum permissible delay time between receiving the last character of a request telegram and sending the
first character of the according reply: 500 ms
If this criterion is fulfilled, the sender reacts by sending a request telegram again.
