IEC-103 Master Driver Menu

Press [I]

from the Main Menu to open the IEC-870-5-103 Master Driver Menu.

Use this menu command to view detailed configuration information for the

module.

2.5.1 Opening the Data Analyzer Menu

Press [A]

to open the Data Analyzer Menu. Use this command to view all bytes

of data transferred on each port. Both the transmitted and received data bytes

are displayed. Refer to Data Analyzer (page 76) for more information about this

menu.

Important: When in analyzer mode, program execution will slow down. Only use this tool during a
troubleshooting session. Before disconnecting from the Config/Debug port, please press [S]

to stop

the data analyzer, and then press [M]

to return to the main menu. This action will allow the gateway

to resume its normal high speed operating mode.

2.5.2 Viewing General Configuration

Press [C]

from the IEC-103 Master Driver Menu to display the general

configuration for the protocol. The following illustration shows an example of the

Module Configuration screen:

The Busy/Idle message indicates the current activity state of the module. "Idle"

means it is waiting to execute a command. "Busy" means it is executing a

command and is waiting for the response to the request. This does not include

the normal Class 1 and 2 polls as these are automatically generated.
The counter data displays the number of memory areas allocated for the

application layer. When no packets are pending, the counts should all be 0. If

messages are waiting to be sent, the applRec count will indicate the number

waiting to be sent. If many messages are received at the same time, the applRec

count will indicate the number of packets that must be processed. The "anything"

count indicates any other buffer area that is allocated and must be processed by

the application.
