ADVANCED OPERATOR INTERFACE PANEL MODBUS PROGRAMMING
OPERATOR INTERFACE PANEL COMMUNICATIONS
Remote communication to the Operator Interface Panel is possible using Modbus
TCP/IP communications via IEEE 802.3. The default access port is port 502
specifically for Modbus/Register commands. Please refer to the network IP
address generated in the network settings of the Operator Interface Panel. The
IP Address is generated when the Panel connects to a wired network, WIFI, or
is assigned manually.
The network IP Address and port number will be used as a gateway to access the
registry for editing the Modbus of the Operator Interface Panel.

GLOSSARY
Autotune
The controller will operate in On-Off mode for a period of time (typically
10-20 minutes) during which it will learn the behavior of the attached heater
to optimize its PID control algorithm. After Autotune is completed the module
will automatically switch into PID control mode.
Baud Rate
The baud rate (measured in bits per second (bps)) refers to the speed the
control modules will use to communicate on the RS-485 serial bus.
When using an Operator Interface the Baud Rate must be set to 115,200 bps.
Caution Alarm
This alarm is used to indicate an elevated temperature condition. The control
module will change color and a message will display on the Operator Interface
to indicate this condition. The dry-contact / alarm relays on the Operator
Interface will not change state and the heater will continue to function in
this condition. This alarm will not function during idle mode. The Caution
alarm is typically set above the operating setpoint and below the high alarm
setpoint.
Control Mode
This setting allows different control modes to be selected. The options are
PID, On-Off, Autotune, Manual Duty Cycle, and Disabled.
Disabled Mode
Disabled Mode is the default setting for LYNX controllers. In this mode the
controllers will not energize the heater. When modules are moved from one
heater to another they will automatically return to Disabled Mode to prevent
accidental heating.
Dry Contact / Alarm Relay
The Operator Interface features 9 dry contact relays. These relays are
energized on system start and will de-energize if an alarm occurs or if the
Operator Interface is turned off. One dry contact is available for each of the
8 strings and there is a master connected to all strings (e.g. If an alarm
occurs on string 3, then the string 3 dry contact and the master dry contact
will de-energize). This relay is energized on system start and will deenergize
if an alarm occurs or if the Operator Interface is turned off.
Enumeration
The complete, ordered listing of all items in a collection.
The process by which the LYNX system discovers each module in a String for a
system and establishes an order for them by setting their Modbus addresses.
High Alarm
This alarm is used to indicate a critical temperature condition.
The control module will change color and a message will display on the
operator interface to indicate this condition.
The dry-contact / alarm relays on the operator interface will change state and
the heater will turn off in this condition.
This alarm will function regardless of whether Idle Mode is enabled or not.
Idle Mode
This mode allows an alternate setpoint to be used to reduce power consumption
during down-time or maintenance.
This mode has its own unique Setpoint, High Alarm, and LowAlarm settings.
Idle High /Low
Alarm Idle High and Low alarms only function when Idle Mode is enabled.
They function the same as the standard High and Low alarms, butwith Idle Mode
Setpoints.
Latching
Latching can be enabled or disabled for alarm conditions.
Setting an alarm o be Latching will force an operator to manually clear the
alarm.
NonLatching alarms will automatically clear when the condition is nolonger
active.
