EJX multivariable transmitter has a PD Tag

(FT2001) and node address (245, or hexadecimal

F5) that are set upon shipment from the factory

unless otherwise specified. To change only the

node address, clear the address once and then set

a new node address. To set the PD Tag, first clear

the node address and clear the PD Tag, then set

the PD Tag and node address again.
Devices whose node addresses have been cleared

will have the default address (randomly chosen

from a range of 248 to 251, or from hexadecimal

F8 to FB). At the same time, it is necessary to

specify the device ID in order to correctly specify

the device. The device ID of the EJX multivariable

transmitter is 594543000Exxxxxxxx. (The xxxxxxxx

at the end of the above device ID is a total of 8

alphanumeric characters.)

5.5 Communication Setting

To set the communication function, it is necessary

to change the database residing in SM-VFD.

5.5.1 VCR Setting

Set VCR (Virtual Communication Relationship),

which specifies the called party for communication

and resources. EJX multivariable transmitter has 33

VCRs whose application can be changed, except

for the first VCR, which is used for management.
EJX multivariable transmitter has VCRs of four

types:
Server(QUB) VCR

A Server responds to requests from a host. This

communication needs data exchange. This

type of communication is called QUB (Queued

User-triggered Bidirectional) VCR.

Source (QUU) VCR

A Source multicasts alarms or trends to other

devices. This type of communication is called

QUU (Queued User-triggered Unidirectional)

VCR.

Publisher (BNU) VCR

A Publisher multicasts block output to another

function block(s). This type of communication

is called BNU (Buffered Network-triggered

Unidirectional) VCR.

Subscriber (BNU) VCR

A Subscriber receives output of another

function block(s).

A Server VCR is capable to responding to

requests from a Client (QUB) VCR after the Client

successfully initiates connection to the Server. A

Source VCR transmits data without established

connection. A Sink (QUU) VCR on another device

can receive it if the Sink is configured so. A

Publisher VCR transmits data when LAS requests

so. An explicit connection is established from

Subscriber (BNU) VCR(s) so that a Subscriber

knows the format of published data.
Each VCR has the parameters listed in Table 5.4.

Parameters must be changed together for each

VCR because modification of individual parameters

may cause inconsistent operation.

role of communication

(VCR). The following 4

types are used for EJX.

0x32: Server

(Responds to

requests from

host.)

0x44: Source

(Transmits alarm

or trend.)

0x66: Publisher (Sends

block output to

other blocks.)

0x76: Subscriber

(Receives output

of other blocks.)

FasDllLocalAddr

Sets the local address

to specify VCR in EJX.

A range of 20 to F7 in

hexadecimal.

3

FasDllConfigured

RemoteAddr

Sets the node address

of the called party for

communication and

the address (DLSAP

or DLCEP) used to

specify VCR in that

address. For DLSAP or

DLCEP, a range of 20

to F7 in hexadecimal is

used.

Addresses in Subindex

2 and 3 need to be set

to the same contents of

the VCR as the called

party (local and remote

are reversed).
