5.4 Setting of Tags and

Addresses

This section describes the steps in the procedure to

set PD Tags and node addresses in the YTA. There

are three states of Fieldbus devices as shown in

Figure 5.4, and if the state is other than the lowest

SM_OPERATIONAL state, no function block is

executed. YTA must be transferred to this state

when an YTA tag or address is changed.

UNINITIALIZED

(No tag nor address is set)

Tag clear

Tag setting

INITIALIZED

(Only tag is set)

SM_OPERATIONAL

(Tag and address are retained, and

the function block can be executed.)

Address clear

Status Transition by Setting PD Tag and

Node Address

YTA has a PD Tag (TT1001) and node address

(243, or hexadecimal 0xF3) 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 address was cleared will await

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 YTA is 5945430005xxxxxxxx. (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. YTA has 30 VCRs whose

application can be changed, except for the first

VCR, which is used for management.
YTA 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 AI block and DI 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) by PID block.

A Server VCR is capable to respond to requests

from a Client (QUB) VCR after the Client initiates

connection to the Server successfully. 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 for each parameter may

cause inconsistent operation.
