Valid for IEC-104 library version 2.5.207 and later.<\/span><\/p>\n

We assume that you have correctly installed NG-Trace and the FBox library according to the instructions on the\u00a0<\/span>NG-Trace Download page.<\/a><\/p>\n

You have already created your IEC 60870-5-104 application and therefore, you have a Fupla file with the IEC Driver FBox placed.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the Fupla file with the IEC FBox. Before the IEC Driver FBox, place an FBox ‘Trace Buffer’ from the NG-Trace family. Name it\u00a0‘IEC104’.
    <\/strong>On the FBox enter a free register (one single free register).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/engiby.ch\/cms\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/NG-Trace_IEC104.png” alt=”NG-Trace IEC104″ title_text=”NG-Trace_IEC104″ _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    2. In the PCD device in the PG5 Project Manager, create a new file with the type ‘NG-Trace’.
    Important: Uncheck the option ‘Linked\/Build’<\/strong>.
    The NG-Trace will open.
    When prompted, select ‘Connect to standard buffer<\/strong>‘.<\/span><\/p>\n


    <\/span>3. Click on ‘Edit Buffer’ and enter the same start Register as chosen above. Save the configuration.<\/span><\/p>\n

    [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/engiby.ch\/cms\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BufferConfiguration.png” alt=”BufferConfiguration” title_text=”BufferConfiguration” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

    4. Build, download and run your program as usual in the PG5 Project Manager. During build, you should get these 2 messages:
    – NG-Trace Buffer for IEC104\u00a0created<\/span>.
    – NG-Trace Buffer for IEC 60870-5-104\u00a0found<\/span>.
    <\/span><\/strong>Only if you get these 2 messages, the trace buffer will work.<\/p>\n

    <\/span><\/p>\n

    5. Go online with the PG5 Project Manager.<\/p>\n

    <\/span><\/p>\n

    6. In the main window of the NG-Trace, press the ‘Connect’ button.
    The named columns appear and the events are recorded. If the options are checked, the PC Date and PC Time are added.<\/p>\n

    In the\u00a0Frm<\/strong>\u00a0column you can find the IEC frame types (I-S-U) but also the following:
    – Info For auxiliary information (e.g. Library version). See Value column
    – Error For driver errors with error code in ASDU and argument in Value column
    – PPP For PPP events, with changed status in COT and new status in Value column
    – TCP For TCP event shown in COT column<\/span><\/p>\n

    Read the Help file for more explanation about the use of NG-Trace.<\/strong><\/p>\n
