3 Safety

mobiLink Power must be operated by qualified personnel only. The operator is responsible for the transportation, operation and maintenance of the product. Personal safety and protection of the equipment is ensure only if mobiLink Power is used as intended.

To ensure the safety of personnel and equipment, mobiLink Power must be used as intended by the manufacturer and in accordance with this manual. Local laws and regulations applicable to the use of this device must be observed.

3.1 Warning of use

During startup mobiLink Power tries to verify the operation mode against the connected fieldbus. If fieldbus terminals are connected to an operating 4-20 mA link this will compromise the analog process value. Make sure to use the correct connections and mode.

3.2 Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning
Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents.

Maintenance
mobiLink Power does not contain any serviceable parts. The device may only be maintained and repaired by Softing. Opening the housing renders the warranty null and void.

4 Installing and using mobiLink Power

4.1 Unpacking and inspecting mobiLink Power

mobiLink Power is shipped with the parts listed in Chapter Delivery and downloads7.

Prior to use:
Before you install mobiLink Power check the integrity of the device as any of the following poses a safety risk:

  • external damage to the housing
  • damage to insulation of the test leads
  • exposure to voltages exceeding the specified parameters
  • incorrect storage of the unit
  • damage sustained in transit
  • incomplete or illegible certificates or labels

Note
If the device is damaged, contact Softing Support immediately.

4.2 Preparing for startup

Before using mobiLink Power in combination with the FOUNDATION Fieldbus or PROFIBUS PA protocol for the first time, make sure that your mobiLink Power is running the latest firmware version for the supported protocols. See the product website for the latest firmware version and Chapter Updating the firmware23 on how to install the firmware.

When you connect mobiLink Power to a host device over the USB port, mobiLink Power automatically starts USB communication.

4.3 Using mobiLink Power in a HART environment

HART communicates on a 4-20 mA current loop that powers the connected HART devices and indicates the primary process value. mobiLink Power comes with a built-in power supply for 4 .. 20 mA HART devices (including 300 ohm load resistor). No further external components are required. mobiLink Power can source up to 22 mA at 16VDC. This is sufficient for most devices. The analog value as indicated by the device will not be evaluated by mobiLink Power.

Beside this bench operation, mobiLink Power also interfaces with already installed and powered HART loops. This is detected automatically and internal power supply will not be activated under any circumstances.

  1. HART
  2. Fieldbus

Setting up a HART connection

1. Connect mobiLink Power to a HART environment as shown above.

CAUTION
mobiLink Power may only be connected in parallel to a field device and NEVER in parallel to the load resistor. Otherwise, power detection may fail and the additional voltage supplied over FIELDBUS POWER will distort the measuring results.

2. Connect mobiLink Power via the USB port with your PC.
It will start automatically.

3. Press the power button8 for about 2 seconds. The FIELDBUS POWER LED starts flashing.

NOTE
The power supply may also be enabled via the mobiLink Power API software.

4. Start an application of your choice on your PC.

5. Select mobiLink Power as HART interface.

NOTE
The mode of operation is selected by the application used (MOBILINKdtm or ComConf). mobiLink Power checks if the electrical conditions on the interface match the selected mode. mobiLink Power must therefore be connected to a HART device or fieldbus segment before the application is started.

6. Verify that the HART LED is indicating HART mode.
The LED is flashing every 2 seconds. When mobiLink Power is powering the Fieldbus link, the FIELDBUS POWER LED is ON. When the Fieldbus link has its own power supply, FIELDBUS POWER LED is OFF.

CAUTION
mobiLink Power will not power the HART loop if an active power source is in use and detected. However, if an external power is added later, the power output will not be deactivated automatically. An additional external power source may damage the system.

If mobiLink Power detects an overload condition or a short circuit on the HART loop, it will deactivate the power supply within less than a second. This mode is indicated by a slowly flashing Fieldbus Power LED flashing slowly. mobiLink Power check the loop at 5 sec intervals, if the overload or short circuit is resolved and restores power if applicable.

4.3.1 Prerequisites
  • mobiLink Power must be connected with your PC.
  • The mobiLink Power Manager must have been downloaded from the product website to your PC.
4.3.2 DirectHARTMode

mobiLink Power typically runs a HART stack when HART operation is enabled. The stack checks the timing and timeout, calculates the HART frame checksum and performs automatic retries when a slave does not respond in time or responds with an incorrect checksum. Dedicated applications like the MOBILINKdtm or DevCom are using the mobiLink Power HART stack accordingly.

Unlike mobiLink Power, other HART master implementations on your PC may use a HART modem only as physical interface to the HART network. Timing, checksum calculations and retries due to lost or incorrect responses from HART slaves are handled by these applications. The HART modem has a virtual com port (serial interface) that is used by the application.

While the AMS device manager supports HART device integration in this way, other applications such as PACTware or DevCom support both the optimized HART stack or a generic approach via a USB serial HART modem. As of version 1.60, mobiLink Power supports DirectHARTMode. The mobiLink Power driver supports a virtual com port in addition to a mobiLink Power interface board. When you connect your mobiLink Power on the USB port, the Windows device manager now displays two HART entries.

Note
If you are using an older mobiLink Power version you will need to re-install the mobiLink Power driver V1.60 in addition to updating the firmware to the latest version!

Note
DirectHART is currently not supported for connections via Bluetooth. The DirectHARTMode has to be enabled explicitly after your mobiLink Power is powered on.

The DirectHARTMode must be enabled explicitly after a mobiLink Power is powered on. This is done in the mobiLink Power Manager or a console application as described in the following chapters. Enabling the DirectHARTMode requires a connection to the mobiLink Power. Therefore, make sure that no application has opened the virtual com port assigned to the mobiLink Power. For instance, when using the AMS device manager, it is not sufficient to stop the AMS device manager but it is also necessary to use the Terminate All Server application from AMS because the virtual com port is still used in the background even if the AMS device manager GUI is stopped.

There are two ways to terminate the DirectHARTMode:

  1. If you have selected the option use inactivity timeout and you have entered a timeout value in seconds in the mobiLink Power Manager, the DirectHARTMode is automatically turned off when no host activity is detected on the related virtual com port. It is also possible to disable the timeout supervision by specifying a timeout value 0. The timeout is given in seconds with a minimum value of 30 seconds.
  2. If you have not set a timeout value in the mobiLink Power Manager, simply terminate the DirectHART Mode by power cycling your mobiLink Power device.
4.3.3 Using mobiLink manager to enable DirectHARTMode

1. Start the mobiLink Manager on your PC.

2. Select the DirectHARTMode tab.
The window will display all mobiLink Power devices you are connected to.

3. Select a mobiLink device. The first entry in the list of mobiLink devices is selected by default.

4. Check the use inactivity timeout option and enter the required timeout value in seconds in the DirectHARTMode inactivity timeout in s field. Acceptable timeout values range 30 to 4294967 seconds. If no timeout supervision is required, uncheck the use inactivity timeout option.

Softing EN-032024-1.60 Mobi Link Power - b1

5. Click [Activate DirectHARTMode].
mobiLink Power will now run in DirectHARTMode. It will remain visible in the mobiLink Manager when it is not opened by an application. If the Activate DirectHARTMode request fails an error message is displayed in the Status field in the DirectHARTMode tab.

Note
When a mobiLink Power is operating in DirectHARTMode access from the mobiLink Power Manager to the mobiLink Power is not possible. Retrieving firmware versions or license status is not possible in this mode.

4.3.4 Using console application to enable DirectHARTMode

The installation of the console application is contained in the mobiLink Power Manager setup. You will find the console application executable under c:\Program Files (x86)\Softing\directHARTMode\DirectHARTMode.exe. The installation also creates a shortcut in the start menu under folder Softing named DirectHARTMode.

When the short cut is used or when the DirectHARTMode.exe file is launched by double click, the console application is executed. However, no argument can be passed nor are the outputs visible. It is therefore recommended to proceed as follows:

  1. Open a CMD prompt.
  2. Enter command cd c:\Program Files (x86)\Softing\directHARTMode and start the console application by typing DirectHARTMode.exe or DirectHARTMode

4.3.4.1 Parameters

The setup also installs a HART.ini file in the folder [ALLUSERSPROFILE]\Softing\mobiLink which usually applies to c:\ProgramData\Softing\mobiLink\HART.ini. The content of this file or command line arguments can be given for specifying the serial number of the mobiLink Power that should be accessed or the timeout value for the supervision of host accesses using the DirectHARTMode.

The following table shows the attributes that can be used in the HART.ini and their meaning. The key attributes have to be in a section [HART cut-through settings] within the HART.ini file. The entries have to be in the form:

=
Key attributes Values Description
SerialNumber 0
9 digit serial number 0 can be used to address any mobiLink Power connected

via USB.
If an explicit serial number is specified, the specified mobiLink will be accessed.
Timeout| 0
30 – 4294967| Specifies the supervision timeout for the DirectHARTMode. If no application is accessing the mobiLink Power in DirectHARTMode the supervision timer would expire.
Value 0: Disable timeout supervision
30 – 4294967: Supervision timeout in seconds
1-30: Use supervision timeout 30 s

Example 1:
[HART cut-through settings]

SerialNumber      =      0

Timeout              =      1200

Note
This is the same setting that would be used when no HART.ini file is present or the key attributes are not contained in the file. The timeout is set to 1200 seconds or 20 minutes. Any mobiLink Power will be accessed.

Example 2:
[HART cut-through settings]

SerialNumber      =      233600502

Timeout              =      1200

Note
Timeout is set to 1200 seconds or 20 minutes. mobiLink Power with serial number 233600502 will be accessed.

Example 3:
[HART cut-through settings]

SerialNumber      =      233600502

Timeout              =      0

Note
The timeout supervision is disabled, mobiLink Power with serial number 233600502 will be accessed. You can also specify command line arguments to determine the supervision timeout or the serial number of the mobiLink Power that should be accessed. The value given as a command line has a higher precedence than the value specified via the HART.ini entry. The following list shows the supported command line parameters.

Argument Values Description
-s 0
9 digit serial number Same as SerialNumber attribute in HART.ini file
-t 0
30 – 4294967 Same as Timeout attribute in HART.ini file

Example 1:
DirectHARTMode

Note
The attribute values from HART.ini file or default values are used.

Example 2:
DirectHARTMode -s233600502

Note
If you access the mobiLink Power with serial number 233600502, timeout is set to the value specified via the HART.ini file or is set to the default value.

Example 3:
DirectHARTMode -t120

Note
Use supervision timeout of 120 seconds (2 minutes), the serial number will be used either from the HART.ini file or the default value would be used.

Example 4:
DirectHARTMode -s233600502 -t1200

Note
Use supervision timeout of 1200 seconds (20 minutes), access mobiLink with serial number 233600502.

If a value is not defined via the HART.ini file or a command line argument a default value is used. The following table shows the used default values:

Attribute Default value Description
Serial Number 0 Access any connected mobiLink
Timeout Value 1200 Supervision timeout 20 minutes (1200 seconds)

4.3.4.2 Virtual Com Port

You can determine the virtual com port assigned to your mobiLink Power in the COM & LPT section of the device manager. You can find the same information in the DirectHARTMode application. The information is printed to the console as shown in the following example:

Using device with S/N:0 (using program argument value), timeout for HART direct mode: 0 (using program argument value)

Number of virtual com port assigned for this mobilink is 13

HART direct mode is enabled now, no further FBAPI service will work before mobiLink power cycle is done

In addition, a text file is created in the same directory where the HART.ini file resides ([ALLUSERSPROFILE]\Softing\mobiLink -> c:\ProgramData\Softing\mobiLink). The name of the file is mobiLink_ComPort.txtl, where SerialNumber is the serial number of the mobiLink that has been accessed. So when using serial number 0 for the console application this shows which mobiLink is accessed.

Content of the file mobiLink_ComPort.txt:

com port ss for used mobiLink with S/N: nnnnnnnnn

Example:
com port 13 for used mobiLink with S/N: 200200906

4.4 Using mobiLink Power in a fieldbus environment

FOUNDATION Fieldbus and PROFIBUS PA use the same physical layer on your mobiLink Power. The device checks the fieldbus voltage and the polarity during start-up. If a problem is detected, mobiLink Power will not set up a connection.mobiLink Power supplies power to field devices. So no further external components are required. In comparison to standard power supplies some limitations apply. As mobiLink Power supplies only up to 40mA and cannot power an entire fieldbus segment. A typical use case is supplying one single device to be configured and parameterized in bench operation mode.

Beside this bench operation mobiLink Power interfaces with fully installed and already powered (and terminated) links. In this case internal power supply will not be activated and mobiLink Power will draw 10mA from the link.

CAUTION
If an external power supply is connected and activated, mobiLink Power draws approximately 10 mA from the fieldbus segment when connected to your PC. Ensure that the fieldbus power supply covers the additional current. If the power supply is running near its
capacity, connecting the mobiLink Power may result in loss of communication.

NOTE
If you intend to access field devices over FOUNDATION Fieldbus or PROFIBUS PA you will need to acquire a separate license. See Chapter Licencing mobiLink Power for FF and PA21 for details.

  1. HART
  2. Fieldbus

Setting up a fieldbus connection

1. Connect mobiLink Power to a fieldbus environment as shown above.

2. Connect mobiLink Power to your PC via USB.

3. Press the power button8 for about 2 seconds. The FIELDBUS POWER LED will start automatically.
Power will only be supplied after the FF or PA protocol has been started by the application (Step 5).

NOTE
The power supply may also be enabled via the mobiLink Power API software.

4. Start an application of your choice on your PC.

5. Select mobiLink Power as fieldbus interface.

NOTE
The mode of operation is selected by the application used (MOBILINKdtm or ComConf). mobiLink Power checks if the electrical conditions on the interface match the selected mode. mobiLink Power must therefore be connected to a HART device or fieldbus segment before the application is started.

6. Verify that the FIELDBUS LED is indicating fieldbus mode.
The LED is flashing every 2 seconds. When mobiLink Power is powering the Fieldbus link, the FIELDBUS POWER LED is ON. When the Fieldbus link has its own power supply, FIELDBUS POWER LED is OFF.

CAUTION
mobiLink Power will not power on the FF/PA segment if it an active power source is in use and detected. However, if an external power is added later, the power output will not be deactivated automatically. An additional external power source may damage to the system.

If mobiLink Power detects an overload condition or a short circuit on the FF/PA segment, it will deactivate the power supply within less than a second. This mode is indicated by a slowly flashing Fieldbus Power LED flashing slowly. mobiLink Power check the loop at 5 sec intervals, if the overload or short circuit is resolved and restores power if applicable.

4.4.1 FF/PA Segment Termination

mobiLink Power has built-in segment terminators which are automatically activated when power is supplied to the segment. When the segment draws on an external power supply, no terminator is activated by default.

Terminators can be activated and deactivated in the mobiLink API software. If an internal power supply is active, at least one terminator will be switched on (which means it is not possible to deactivate both terminators in this case).

4.4.2 Special notes for PROFIBUS PA

All PROFIBUS PA masters must use the same bus parameters per PA segment. mobiLink Power has been tested and approved in conjunction with the following PA Masters:

  • Softing Gateways (pnGate PA/PB, mbGate PA)
  • Siemens PA Link (IM-153)
  • Pepperl + Fuchs SK3
  • Pepperl + Fuchs Basic Segment Coupler

Restrictions:
The following PA masters are not able to communicate with mobiLink Power:

  • Pepperl + Fuchs SK1 & SK2

For details on how to set the bus parameters see the corresponding MOBILINKdtm User Guide.
