to supply power to the output device.
The P bus can be externally supplied by a 24V supply with
an ISOLATED output, or can be linked from the controller
24Vdc aux supply.
Hardware - Controller Data Storage
No battery on board :- Logged data, alarms and strategy
are stored in flash memory.
A supercapacitor is used to run the real time clock (RTC)

for up to six days if power fails. After this period on power
up the controller will request synchronisation from the site
time master.
If the site consists of IQ1s, IQ2s and IQ3s, then an IQ3

must be the time master.
If the site time master is an IQ3 then a battery option

board should be installed.
Install battery card option board

under detachable cover.
If the battery card is installed battery should be replaced

every five years. The battery will maintain the RTC for
several years on power fail.

iP Tool
iP Tool is in SET - Tools - Trend iP Tool.
Use iP Tool to set up the TCP/IP settings.
1) The tool broadcasts to all
Trend devices using UDP.
IQ == XCITE IQ == XCITE
E E
2) Trend devices reply with their current IP settings.

The tool operates at the physical MAC address level
therefore we can communicate irrespective of the
current IP settings.
E E
3) The correct TCP/IP settings can be made and sent to the

controllers.
iP Tool
1. To start the addressing process,
click 'connect'.
2. iP Tool will indicate your local PC settings in

the title bar.
3. The Tool will then find all Trend Ethernet

devices on this physical network and display
them in the table.
4. Using the table you can identify the current

settings in the Trend Ethernet devices.
Exercise Duration = 10 minutes
1. Run up SET and from the short cut and select 'Create New SET Project' then
click OK.
2. Set up the following details for this site:

Project Name: Training Room
Project number: 123456
Later we will use this project to create some strategies for our controllers.
3. Work with your neighbour sitting at one machine.

If two copies of iP Tool are running on the same network they
will interfere with each other and give erronious readings.
Select 'Trend ip-Tool' from the Tools menu in SET and click 'Connect' to open a
connection to your network. As you are connected to the same network as your
partner you should see two IQ3s.
4. Using the table display identify your IQ3's MAC address and its current iP
settings, fill in the table below:
Note: These settings are the factory defaults.
Identifier Default Router
Trend Lan Trend Node
IP Address Subnet mask
5. Would the current settings work on a network?
6. The tool can help you find one specific controller by sorting the information,
click the column headings of the table to sort the data by that column.
IQ3 Address Details - IP Settings
The following TCP/IP settings must be set up for the IQ3 to

communicate over Ethernet:
IP address -
Unique for each device on the
network. e.g. 128.1.1.1
Subnet mask - Determines network ID of device and
is used for direct or routed comms.
Default router - The IP address of the local router for
comms to other IT networks.
UDP port No. - For Trend devices to communicate.
Ethernet
IQ == XCITE IQ == XCITE IQ == XCITE IQ == XCITE

E E E E
IP = 128.1.4.25 IP = 128.1.4.24 IP = 128.1.5.24 IP = 128.1.5.25

SN = 255.255.0.0 SN = 255.255.0.0 SN = 255.255.0.0 SN = 255.255.0.0
If the IQ3s are on the same physical network, the IP

address and subnet mask must create the same network
ID, but unique host IDs.
The UDP port numbers must all be the same.
These settings are made using iP Tool.

The virtual INC is enabled automatically if needed, see the

next page for details.
There are also two virtual CNCs that can be enabled by an

engineer if needed, one on the serial port and one on
Ethernet.
IQ3 Address Details - Trend Settings
Each IQ3 has the following Trend settings which must also
be set up:
Address (node) - The address of the IQ3's CNC on
the Trend LAN.
LAN - The Trend LAN number of the IQ3.
Identifier - A Trend label to identify the IQ3.
IQ3s with the same LAN number form a software LAN on
Ethernet.
Two IQ3s with different LAN numbers form a software
internetwork on Ethernet as shown below.

The IQ3 with the lowest Ethernet address on each LAN

enables its virtual INC to build the internetwork.
For all addresses the unique, legal rules still apply, the
range is 1-119, excluding 2, 3 and 10.

4. Set up the:
i) Identifier
ii) Trend address
iii) Trend LAN number
5. Send the settings with the 'WRITE DATA' button.

The IQ3 will take 15 to 30 seconds to save the settings
and reboot. Use the buttons 'Clear list' and 'Search for
Trend Devices' to check the new settings.
iP Tool - Limits
The broadcasts used by iP Tool only work on the local
network. Routers block broadcast messages so we cannot
set up unconfigured Trend devices through routers.

A visit to the other side of the router is required to

configure the address details of these Trend devices.
Note:
If more than one copy of iP Tool is running on a network
you should be aware of the following:
i) Querying the network on one iP Tool will refresh
the other.
ii) If the network is learnt at the same time two replies
will be returned from the devices and therefore you
may incorrectly see a 'Duplicate MAC address
warning'.

Once the IQ3's TCP/IP and Trend addresses have been set
up SET has to connect to a virtual CNC on the network to
map the site.
The CNC can be a Virtual CNC in any Trend IQ3, 3xtend or

EINC.
SET uses File Transfer Protocol (FTP) for full upload and
download of IQ3 files. FTP will run over Ethernet but not
over a serial RS232 connection.
An LNC or hardware CNC can be used to perform all IQ3

tasks except a full download or upload. An Ethernet
connection is required for this.
Virtual CNC Address Details
Although we are still using the Trend networking approach

of LANs and OS address, because the connection uses TCP/
IP we have to connect to the VCNC using a socket.

Checking IP Address Connection
If you are unsure if your P.C. settings are correct for

communications then the addressing tool can help:
1. Select a device in the table
2. Click 'Ping 'and check the

response.
If you find your P.C. settings are incorrect, you will have to
change the network settings in your operating system.
Exercise - continued
4. i) In System View, right click the site name and select 'Refresh', this may
take a few seconds but you should see your local LAN.
ii) Refresh your local LAN in the same way and you should see two IQ3s and
two VCNCs on your network. As you are logged in as an engineer you can
now view the current controllers' modules, edit module details and later,
when we have developed some strategies, you can upload or download the
data file.
Right Click on a LAN

to perform global
LAN actions.
Right Click on a
device to perform
individual actions.
5. Right click on the internetwork and select 'Refresh', you should see your 3xtend
LAN. Right Click on the 3xtend and select 'Refresh', this time you should see the
IQ21x controller at address 16.
Continued...
Configure the time module for your IQ3 using System View.
5. Browse your controller in System View and navigate down to the time module as
shown below. Right click on the time module and select 'Properties'. In the window
that opens click the 'Parameters' tab and set the controller's time.
Once you have entered the hours, minutes, day of month, month, year and day of the
week click the 'Write' button. For years up to 2009 just enter a single digit.
Creating A TUA For SET
The Trend Universal Address (TUA) is a string of text that

determines the connection from SET to a Trend device.
We can use iP Tool to create a TUA to our VCNC. We do not
have to remember the IP address, host name and port
number. 1. In iP tool highlight the device
and select the 'Make TUA for
VCNCs' button.
2. The TUA is copied to the

clipboard and placed in SET's
Standard comms connections.
3. The connection details for

this site are now saved in SET
for future engineering. Use the
drop down list to select the
connection.
iP Addressing Tool - Hints and Tips
Master Settings:
If the check boxes are ticked these settings can be used for a
batch of controllers.
To set the master settings, type the details in the left field
and then tick the box. The value will be kept for the next
IQ3.
Auto VCNC:
If the 'Auto VCNC' button is pressed the following settings

are used:

Exercise - Answer
The problem is there is no internetwork between the IQ3 Ethernet lan (lan 4) and the
20mA lan (lan 5), so this is really two separate Trend sites. One of the Ethernet IQ3s will
enable its INC, but as there is no INC on the 20mA lan, there is no internetwork link.
This means the 963 cannot map the system as a single site. 963 can connect to a virtual
CNC in an IQ3 on lan 4, but then lan 5 can only be accessed as a remote site. The same
problem exists for the other lan if the VCNC in the IQ3/LAN is used for the connection.
Can you suggest a solution.
The solution is to fit a 3xtend between the 20mA lan and Ethernet. The 963 will now be
able to map the whole site from either VCNC.

Section 6 - IQ3 Software Configuration
Aims and Objectives
Aims: Introduce the differences between IQ2

and IQ3 strategy modules.

able to :-
1. Create an IQ3 strategy using SET.

2. Describe the differences between IQ2 and
IQ3 software.
3. Calculate if a strategy will fit into an
IQ3 controller based on the brIQ
count.
4. Download a strategy to an IQ3
controller and monitor it using SET.
Exercise - Set Up An IQ3 Controller
Duration = 10 minutes
1. Select the Project View tab, right click on the site name 'Training Room' and
add a LAN.
Set the LAN number to the

same as your LAN, and name
the LAN "Desk Network".
Right click on your LAN and add an IQ3 controller with the following details:
Address: = 'Your Controller's address'

Device Type: = IQ 3xx
Firmware: = 1.4
Hardware Variant: = IQ 3xcite/96
Name: = 'Your Name'
Continued...
2. The next item to configure is the Address Module. Set the attributes to your
company name (Maximum is 30 characters, use legal characters only).
Address properties - set to Not Sent:

i) If un-ticked, when the strategy file is created these details will be included
and written to the controller. As these have already been configured using
IPTool, we don't want to over-write them.
ii) For the identifier, add the same name that you used on the previous page and
tick the box 'Not sent.' SET checks this identifier against the identifier in the
controller and brings up an error box if they don't match.
iii) Note the IP address is set up in a new module in firmware version =>1.3.
3. Add the following sensor types to your controller:
Sensor Type Number Sensor Part Number Scaling Range
1 Trend Thermistor -40 to +110C Type 5
2 T/PC -40 to +40C Type 5
4. After configuring the address module and then setting up the sensor types
SET will automatically display the I/O setup window. This allows I/O modules
to be added and labelled.
Add the I/O module on the desk to the project controller.
When you have finished press the Exit button.

Note: To edit the address module, sensor types or I/O modules, select these
options from the Device menu.
I/O Software Module Set Up
Selecting 'I/O Setup' from the 'Device' menu, displays a

summary of the input and output software modules and
their current channel allocations.
When strategy

modules here.
Ensure the
address matches
the Physical
address of the
module.
This window can be used to:

i) Assign Sensors, Digital Inputs and Driver modules
to channels.
ii) Add extra I/O modules to expandable controllers.
iii) Identify input and output software modules not
allocated to a channel.
Software - Flexible Module Count
The number of modules of each type is completely flexible.

However, each type of controller has a fixed amount of
memory and this limits the number of modules available.
The following table shows the module size allocation. Use it
to calculate the size of a given strategy:
Software Max No Software Max No

Note 1 - Type of module selected has an impact on size, the largest size has been used for this table.
Note 2 - The Time Zone module size accounts for 20 exceptions, any more added will have to be
allocated from the remaining briIQs. Exceptions are created in the web browser or 963 and these will
be configured by the user, ensure sufficient briIQs are left.
Note 3 - SET allows the you to create 500 plot modules, however you can only display graphs on
supervisors for sensors 1 to 99, plots modules for sensors higher than 99 can only be shown on the
web pages.
The IQ3 has a one second cycle time and can have up to
600 modules in its sequence table
Software - Direct Module Interconnection
Modules are no longer connected by nodes, they are

connected directly. Each module input or output has a
connection and a value.
Although the IQ2 and IQ3 modules and links appear

similar, there is no reference to analogue or digital nodes:
IQ2: Module looks at the source Node for the Value.

Direct module interconnection brings benefits:

i) The array tables are hard to remember.
ii) With a variable module count, the conventional
array tables would not be possible.
Software - Extra Module Inputs And Outputs
As the arrays are no longer used module parameters are

now Inputs, Outputs or Internal parameters.
For example, In an IQ2 sensor 1 high enable is bit 407,0. In

an IQ3 it is just an input to the sensor.

5. Finish the strategy by linking your modules to the plant block strategy as
shown on the next page.
6. With sensors, digital inputs and drivers the I/O module and I/O channel must
be configured. The I/O module refers to the physical address of the I/O module
as set on its rotary switch, the base controller is always 0. I/O channel refers to
the terminal number on the module. Therefore as software I/O points have a
module and channel reference, this is consistent with any drawing references:
Configure the I/O module

channels as shown on the
strategy page overleaf.
Don't forget to plug a sensor from your box into the appropriate IQ3 input.
7. What number range can be used for the knob Top and Bottom limits?
To help answer this question remember to use the help icon in SET and click
the area of interest.
Important things to note:

i) Time zones can be
configured with up to 10 time
periods.
The SET module display can
show the times in Graphic
mode (as shown on the
previous page) or Data mode
(a table of times). If data
mode is used SET will only
display the first three periods.
ii) Module labels can now be
up to 30 characters in length,
although to maintain
compatibility, in some cases
only the first 20 will be used.
iii) All modules can have labels which are now downloaded to the controller.
These labels will help when using a web browser.

Downloading The Data File
Downloading and uploading both use file transfer protocol

(FTP) so these operations must use an Ethernet connection.
This is transparent when using SET. Files are transferred
using the Trend LAN and OS address numbers to target
the destination IQ3.
Select Download from the Comms menu and check the
details:
i) Download to the
c correct target Trend
LAN and node. Use
LAN 0 for local sites.
ii) You may need to

connect SET to the
CNC. View the
settings and edit as
appropriate.
When you select 'OK' look at the status field, if this reports
'Connection Failed' go to system view, delete the lans and

Exercise - Downloading Duration 10 minutes

Notes:- User name and Password:
When downloading to an IQ3 you are prompted for a user name and password. This
refers to the security currently in the IQ3. If no users exist in the controller these
windows can be left at the default settings (your set user and password), these
windows must not be left empty as FTP requires a user and password even if no
security exists. Therefore if you remove the default user name and password you will
find SET automatically fills these text boxes. It should be noted that by having the
user name and passwords filled in, a user is NOT set up in the IQ3, this is covered
later in the course.
1. Download the strategy to your controller and use live values to test the
strategy. Ensure you set up your 'Current Site Connection Details' to connect to
your controller's VCNC. Once downloaded try the following using Live

1. Add a new page to your desk controller. Then add the self resetting switch
shown previously. When you do this you will have to use the IQ3 connectives
to find the timing pulses, either select the icon or right click the screen
and select 'Other - Connective' option.
Find the connection you require
in the window and double left
click to select it.
i) You can filter using buttons

or labels.
ii) If you select a module the

associated connectives are
shown here, e.g. Select a
sensor and the alarm state
connectives are shown.
2. Download the strategy to your controller. Use live values and test the
strategy by adjusting the status of the self-resetting switch and check that it
switches off after one minute.
3. Describe how you could re-configure your heating loop to perform the
following:
i) Permanently set for auto mode?
ii) NonOcc setpoint permanently configured to 17C?
Plot Modules
Plot data are stored in a separate, fixed memory area

which is not part of the controller brIQ count.
An IQ3xact can store 20,000 records (or plotted values)
and an IQ3xcite can store 100,000 records.
By default, the number of records per plot module is 1000.
This can be reduced, but not increased.
Therefore an IQ3xact can have 20 plot modules of 1000
records and an IQ3xcite can have 100 plot modules of 1000
records.
More plot modules can be created but the total number of
records is fixed and must be shared amongst the plot
modules. SET allows up to 500 plot modules to be created.
For example, an IQ3xact could have 500 plot modules, but
with only 40 records in each.
The number of records does not have to be the same in all
plot modules.
Summary: You can have any number of plot modules up to
500, and you can have any number of records up to 1000 as
long as the total number of records does not exceed the
capacity of the controller.
Exercise - Plot modules Duration = 10 minutes

Software Module Sequence Table
Strategy Sequencing

Strategy
Event Based
Time
Modules which have a sequence step are calculated every
second.
If a module is removed from the sequence table, it becomes
event driven. That is, when any of its inputs change the
module's output is recalculated.
F12D E F12
F11D F

D = (E * G) + (F * H)
Event driven modules should form a linear strategy. If a

strategy with feedback is used (as above) the controller will
automatically return to a one second sequence.
Counting both sequenced and event driven modules the
IQ3 can service up to 900 modules per second of which 600
can be in the sequence table.
Exercise - Disabling modules Duration = 10 minutes
For commissioning and fault-finding a module can be disabled in SET. Go to
Live Values and Live Edit and then click on a module value.
1. To enter live values and live edit mode

on your controller click on the
Comms menu
and select
Live values
and
Live Edit
2. To disable an IQ3 module, click

the module value which will
display the 'Output Override'
dialogue box. Enter a new value
and click OK. You will notice once
in override the module will turn
red.
3. Override sensor 1 and set it to

18. Now warm up the sensor and
check that the value doesn't change.
4. To re-enable a module clear the disable module tick box, or double click on
the module to enter the parameters and toggle the 'Module State' button:
5. To re-enable all modules in a controller, right click on a blank part of the

strategy drawing and select the 'Device' menu, then 'Re-enable all modules', or
close live edit.
6. Modules can also be disabled in strategy by linking a digital state (e.g. a

software switch) to the input to the left of the module label. When this disable
input is on the module's outputs are frozen.

The priority is used in the destination module further into
the strategy to hold low priority alarms (e.g. autodialled
destinations). The priority can also be used in 963 alarm
handling filters.
The priority level can be set in the range 0-255 (255 =
highest).

Label:
To identify the destination for setting up the alarm
handling within SET and can also be viewed from the web
browser.
Fail bit:
If the destination stops responding the fail bit will be set.
Once back on line alarms are resent.
Message Format:
Coded - the original Trend alarm format, e.g.
L000O024S1HIGH
Text - plain text, now used almost exclusively,
Controller identifier, point label, alarm text,
occurred/cleared, time and date.
Attribute - this new format is similar to text but contains
the following extra information:
Alarm value, time to the second, group number
and group priority.
Destination Module
Hold Priority (H):

The hold priority relates to the priority level in the group
modules.
When set to a value greater than zero the module will hold
alarms with a lower priority, until either a higher priority
alarm is received, or the high water mark of waiting
alarms is reached.
The high water mark is not defined by the engineer. It
occurs when the alarm log is 75% full of unacknowledged
alarms.
The hold priority is useful for delaying the transmission of
alarms to an autodialled supervisor.

Exercise - Alarm Handling Duration = 20 minutes
This exercise will guide you through setting up alarm group, route and destination
modules. We will use the alarm applet within SET to receive the alarms.
1. Add a new page to your controller. Now add the strategy modules shown
below. To find the group, route and destination modules, right click on a blank
part of the strategy and select the 'Alarms' menu option:

2. Now the alarm modules are in place, we need to check which alarms have been
assigned to which group and ensure they are enabled. This should be easy because
if groups have been created, all module alarms in an IQ3 default to group 1.
3. Right click on a blank part of the strategy drawing and select 'Alarms' and
'Alarm Grouping' menu option. Use this window to move alarms between groups,
set up the default group as shown below:
Continued...
4. Ensure the alarms are enabled in the default group, to perform this right click the
alarm and select enable.
5. Download the strategy to your controller.
6. From the Tools menu select the 'Monitor Incoming Alarms' option. This will
display the ToolSET alarm monitoring applet:
Alarms received, Alarms received, Alarms received, Grouped

which have not displayed in together as Occurred and
yet cleared. chronological order. Cleared alarms.
This window allows you to send alarms to SET, SET will then acknowledge the
alarm in the controller. The window will store alarms received during this session.
The 'Options' button allows you to customise which columns are displayed: The
'Export...' button allows you to transfer the data to the clipboard or a text file:
The 'Clear List' clears the view which is currently shown on screen.
Continued...
7. Test the alarm delivery mechanism from your IQ3. You must ensure the
alarm applet window is open to receive the alarms. Click the middle tab to
see all the alarms. Follow these fault finding tips if the alarms do not appear:
i) In the SET strategy open the Alarm grouping window and check, the alarm
you are testing is in group 1 and it is enabled.
ii) In the SET strategy edit the parameters for the group and destination
modules and ensure the group priority level is equal too or greater than the
destinations priority hold level.
iii) In the SET strategy check the route module has been enabled. In our
strategy this is a simple case of turning switch 3 ON.
iv) In the SET strategy check the destination module alarm address and LAN
number. Does this correlate to your VCNC in your controller?
v) If you have made any changes to your strategy ensure you download the file
again.
vi) Ensure the alarm applet window is open to receive the alarms, it must be
left running.
8. This exercise has taken you through the alarm set up step by step. A simple
summary check list is shown below:
Summary:
i) Configure Groups Routes and Destination modules in the controller.
ii) Set the alarm address in the destination module to be your VCNC or where
you wish the alarms to be delivered, for example a 963 supervisor.
iii) Test the desired alarms are delivered.
Did you know?

The general controller alarms, 'Controller on Line', 'Help', etc, are not sent from the controller by
default, these are stored in group zero.
In addition to the normal Trend alarms the following general alarms are supported:
Sequence Table Overrun (STOR): The controller is unable to complete all the modules in the
sequence table in the required time. Change some of the modules to event driven.
Low RAM (LMWG): If the controller runs low on RAM it will send this alarm and reboot.
Contact Technical Support.
I/O Bus Failure (FCAN): Communications failure on the I/O bus (e.g. short circuit). Check
wiring.
Low Flash (LFWG): The amount of memory used by graphics files (backdrops) is excessive.
Reduce the size or number of files.
Archive Failure (FARC): The archiving of the running strategy file into flash memory has
failed. Contact Technical Support.
Corrupt Time (FTIM): Similar to standard Fail RTC alarm.
Alarm Handling - Alarms To An IP Address
If a 963 bureau needs to receive alarms via an IT network

from remote sites there is a problem. Sending alarms to a
VCNC will only work if the supervisor is already
connected. As shown below, if the 963 is connected to site A,
then no connection exists to site B.
IQ 3xcite IQ 3xcite
Site A
Site B
IQ 3xcite IQ 3xcite
Solution:
Change the destination module 'Destination Type' to 'IP
Address'. This allows controllers to transmit alarms to the
supervisor's IP address or host name.
The controller and supervisor configuration for this is

shown on the next two pages.
Alarm Handling - Alarms To An IP Address

controller in iP Tool, then click the 'Web page' button.
When the web page appears in Internet explorer, click File - Send - Shortcut to
desktop. This will place a shortcut to your IQ3 on the left of your desktop.
Close down Internet Explorer, minimise iP Tool and SET, then run the web page
up again by double clicking on the desktop shortcut.
2. Navigate around your strategy and try the following:
i) View all your sensor values.
ii) View a graph of sensor 1. To zoom in drag a box around the area of interest.
To zoom out right click the graph.
iii) See if you can trace the sensor loop driver strategy using the connection
buttons.
iv) View all your setpoints (knobs). Then adjust your occupied setpoint 2C
above its current value.
v) View the time module and check the details - this is important for
commissioning.
vi) View the alarm log, this area would be useful when fault finding alarm
delivery, if the alarm does not appear in this list it is not enabled or assigned to a
group. If the alarm gets into the alarm log but the last column states 'waiting not
sent' this is a problem with the destination.
3. All software modules can be disabled, I/O modules can be overridden.
Disabled modules do not function and just stop working. This is similar to
removing an IQ2 module from the sequence table, this feature is what SET live
edit 'Disable module' uses. The module override enable and module override
value can be adjusted with strategy modules to allow an end users to override I/
O, as shown in the following strategy:

Continued...
4. As shown, I/O software modules can be overridden and then override values
applied.
Locate your lighting driver and override it, then turn it ON and check that the
LED comes on.
5. The address page can be

used to re-enable any
overridden modules globally,
locate the address module
and set the 'Override Timer'
to 1 minute, then check your
driver returns to normal
control.
Continued...
6. Click on Modules then Networks then N1 to display the Ethernet settings.
These are usually set up with iP Tool but can also be changed here.
The Default host name is always TREND_xx_xx_xx where xx_xx_xx are the
last six characters of the MAC address.
The default name is always used when the controller is reset. When a new host
name (e.g. Boiler_1) is set up the controller will still respond to the default name
unless it is Disabled in the web page above.
If the default name is left Enabled, the controller will respond to both host
names.
If you use the disable module (not override) feature in the web pages the module will not
return to normal control when the address module 'Override Timer' expires. The overview
pages indicate modules in alarm (red) and disabled modules (dark grey).

clicking the icon.
Exercise - Graphics pages Duration = 25 minutes
This exercise will guide you through creating some sample GraphIQs pages for your
controller. The first two pages explain how to create pages, then we have some
sample pages for you to create. Please ensure you follow the instructions carefully as
the exercises are progressive.
In SET view one of your controller's strategy pages. From the 'Tools' menu select
'Display and Directory Setup', the following window will be displayed:
The centre window shows the
current display and directory
modules. Directory modules
represent a GraphIQs page, and
display modules are the controller
modules shown on the page, see
below for example.
The left hand window shows all the
modules in your controller which
can be displayed on a graphics
page.
The directory modules
are the GraphIQs
pages. These create the
navigator.
The display modules

are the GraphIQs items.
Once the display and directory structure has been engineered, each directory module
needs to be edited. This process sets the backdrop used, the size of the GraphIQs
page, the refresh rate of dynamic items and specifies where items appear on the
screen.
The IQ3 accepts only .JPG or GIF files for the backdrops. There is limited memory
available for storing the backdrops:
Total backdrop memory available = 2MB.
MAXIMUM file size per backdrop = 200kB, recommended is 100kB
Continued...
In the middle window of the 'Display and Directory Setup' dialogue, right click on the
first directory module, this is referred to as the root, select 'Edit Parameters'. The
following points explain each parameter, read the information and then configure the
directory modules parameters as listed in step 3:
i) Title: The title of the GraphIQs page and visible

in the Navigator.
ii) Pin Level: Linked to controller security, only
users with a level Pin Level can see the
GraphIQs page.
iii) Background Colour: The GraphIQs page can
have a background colour or backdrop picture
click the 'Change...' button to choose the colour.
iv) Backdrop: A picture can be displayed instead of a colour. The project backdrop
pictures are stored in a folder called 'backdrops' in your current SET project, the
default location would be:
C:\Set Projects\<PROJECT NAME>\Backdrops
Some training examples have been placed in C:\Temp\Backdrops
Click the 'Change...' button to display the following window:
To import backdrops click here and navigate to the required file on you PC.
Highlight the backdrop you require, preview it in the window, click 'OK' to configure
it. Note: File size and download times are also shown for reference.
v) Refresh Rate: The update interval in seconds for all dynamic display items shown
on this GraphIQs page.
vi) Width, height and page size: This should be set to the size of the backdrop picture.
Remember this is dependent on the screen resolution used to view the page, if the size
is too large the screen will display scroll bars.
Continued...
Now to set up some specific pages:
1. Edit your first directory (the root) module with the following details:
Title: 'Welcome Page'

Backdrop Picture: Use the 'Change...' button.
There will be no backdrops in your project so you will have to add then from
c:\temp\backdrops folder. Set the backdrop picture to 'welcome.gif'
Refresh Rate: 5
Page Size: 640 x 480 (select this from the 'Page size' drop down menu)
2. Right click on your new 'Welcome Page' directory module and select 'Insert
Directory'. Set up the following details:
Title: 'Operators Page'

Backdrop Picture: 'floorplan.gif'
Refresh Rate: 5
Page Size: 640 x 480
3. Right click on your 'Welcome Page' directory module and select 'Insert
Directory'. Set up the following details:
Title: 'Engineers Page'

Backdrop Picture: 'Boilers.gif'
Refresh Rate: 5
Page Size: 640 x 480
4. Using the Left 'Display Items' window drag and drop the points as shown into the
relevant directory:
Continued...
5. By default, all the points will be in the top left-hand corner. To edit the layout
right click on the 'Operators Page'
directory module and select 'Edit
Web Page'.
Use drag and drop to position the

points as shown using the tips
below to help you,
Hints & Tips:

i) You can move multiple items
with the mouse. Group select
items either by holding the 'Ctrl'
key and clicking each item or by
dragging a box around a number
of items.
ii) Right click on the 'page view' to access the following menus:
iii) Properties: The directory

module properties can be edited.
iv) Preview: How the web pages will
look in Internet Explorer.
v) Toggle layout grid.
vi) Switch to other

directory modules.
6. Switch to the 'Engineers Page' and edit the layout as shown:
Continued...
7. We now need to download the GraphIQs pages to your controller. Use the
following instructions to help:
Downloading the GraphIQs is the same as downloading a strategy. From the

'Comms' menu select 'Download' and configure the 'Connection Details' dialogue
box as appropriate (yours will be OK as you have already established a connection
with your IQ3). Once the strategy file has been created the following window will
be displayed:
Before you start the download it is important to understand the transfer options:
i) IQ3 File - This should be checked every time a change has been made to any IQ
module and you wish to download this new data to the controller. This includes
display and directory modules.
ii) Backdrops - This should be checked every time a change has been made to any
backdrops or a different backdrop has been selected. If you have just moved or
added a dynamic item on a page you do not have to download the backdrops again.
Download your GraphIQs pages and test them.
GraphIQs - Static Items
Static display items can be configured to perform a

number of actions, some examples are shown:
i) Static text, for information
not already on the backdrop.
ii) A link to a website. For

example another IQ3xcite.
iii) A direct link to an overview page.
iv) A direct link to a GraphIQs page.
Exercise - Static items Duration = 20 minutes
We are going to create the following static items on our GraphIQs pages: some static
text, a link to the sensors overview and a link to our neighbour's controller. Note: The
first half of this page explains static items. Just read it, then the exercise gives
you some examples to engineer.
1. In the middle window of the 'Display and Directory Setup' dialogue, right click on
a directory module and select 'Insert Static Display Item'. The following points
explain each parameter, read the information:
i) Label: Text which will appear on the GraphIQs

page. If no link reference is entered this item will just
become screen text, for example 'Boiler Page'.
ii) Pin Level: This is linked to controller security,
only users with a level Pin Level will see the item.
iii) Link Reference: The static object can have a link,
that is, an action to perform when clicked. Click the
'Change...' button to choose the action. We will
engineer some examples in a minute.
iv) Foreground and Background Colour: check the
option box then click the 'Change...' button to edit the
colour. If the background colour is not set the background will be transparent.
v) Font Type, Font Size and width: Use these to format the text.
2. Add the following text to the Operators page:

Text: 'Welcome to the Operators Page'
Font: Sans-Serif Font Size: 20
Position the text at the top of the screen in the 'Edit Web Page' view.
3. Add the following text to the Engineers page:

Text: 'Welcome to the Engineers Page'
Position the text at the top of the screen in 'Edit Web Page' view.
4. Add a static item to the Welcome page to allow you to access your
neighbour's IQ3:
Text: 'Link to neighbours IQ3'
Link Reference: Ensure you replace
the IP address in the example with
your neighbours host name or IP
address.
Continued...
5. Add a static item on the Welcome page to allow you to access the sensors
overview:
Text: 'Sensors Overview Link'
Link Reference:
Note: The module code e.g. S.htm
or K.htm is case sensitive.
Font: Sans-Serif
Font Size: 18
5. Preview and position your items on the screen.
6. Download and test the GraphIQs pages.

Hints and Tips:

You can set up the default settings for display and directory modules in SET. From
the Tools menu select the 'Display and Directory Setup' option. On the bottom left
corner of the D&D set up window there is the option to configure the themes. Edit
your defaults here:
For an end user a desktop short-cut to the IQ3 will be the easiest way to
launch web pages. However, for engineers it is probably easier to use iP Tool
to find the controller, then click the 'Web page' button.
2. Click the 'Web

page' button.
1. Highlight the
controller.
Section 10 - IQ3 Users And Security
Aims and Objectives
Aims: To show how adding users affects the

graphics pages.
To show how to set up users in SET.

able to :-
1. Configure a user in an IQ3 controller.
Security - Default
When there are no users set up in an IQ3 one user exists:
System Guest with L100 access.
If you do not log into an IQ3 you are logged in as the

System Guest. If the controller is not protected you have
full access to all the features.
As soon as you configure a user the System Guest access

level is changed to -1 and only read-only access is given.
Note: Always set up user 1 at level 99 first, and removed it

last!

It is important to be consistent throughout all the
controllers.
Section 11 - Dynamic Addressing
Aims and Objectives
Aims:
1. Gain an understanding of how to set up an
IQ3 system using DHCP.
2. Be aware of when it is appropriate for an
IQ3 system to span routers.

able to :-
1. Configure an IQ3 controller's IP address
settings.
2. Setup IQ3s and 3xtends to span a router.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
Dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) is a method

of automatically allocating IP addresses to a host.
IQ 3xcite
Host
DHCP
server
DHCP works like this:

1. A DHCP server has to be set up and given a pool of
IP addresses to allocate.
2. When a host boots up (this could be a PC or an
IQ3) it sends out a broadcast to ask the DHCP
server for an IP address.
3. The server responds with an IP address from the
pool and all the other network settings (subnet
mask, default router, WINS and DNS server
addresses).
A lease period (usually 24 hours) is also sent.
4. If the server does not respond the host creates a
random address starting with 169.254.x.x. This is
known as 'link local' and cannot be used with
routers.
Setting IQ3s and 3xtends To DHCP
1) Highlight the device in IP Tool,

2) click the DHCP tick box,
3) write the data to the device.
With 3xtends it is best to do a factory reset first.
Exercise - Set your Trend devices to use DHCP

Work with your neighbour sitting at one machine.
1. Reset your 3xtend to factory settings in the following way: Power it down, set
all the switches up, power up and wait until all LEDs flash, finally set the
correct address and baud speed.
2. In SET select Trend ip-Tool from the Tools menu and click Connect.
3. Select each device in turn and set it to DHCP and click Write Data.
4. As you are not yet connected to the DHCP server the Trend devices will
generate addresses in the range 169.254.x.x.
Setting A PC To DHCP
To set up a PC to DHCP go to the 'TCP/IP properties'

dialogue box and click the 'Obtain an IP address
automatically' button. Then OK your way out.
Exercise - Set your PC to use DHCP 10 minutes

1. Connect all the hosts (PCs, IQ3s and 3xtends) to the server by replacing the cat
5 and fibre optic connections.
2. In Windows click on Start, then Settings, then Network Connections. This

will display the Network Connection Status window.
3. Right click Local Area Connection and select Properties. This will display the
properties dialogue.
4. Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and then click Properties.
5. Click the button Obtain an IP address automatically and click OK twice.
6. Wait for about 30 seconds to allow the PC to be given a new address. The pool
of host addresses in the DHCP server fourth octet is 1-90.
7. Open a command line window (go to Start - Run - Type CMD and press enter.
Then use IPCONFIG /ALL to check that your new address is in this range.
8. In SET System view delete all the Lans and the internetwork, then refresh the
site. You should be able to see all the controllers and 3xtends in your part of the
room. You should not be able to see the other controllers although you are
connected to them through the router.

Trend products are able to create an internetwork which

will span routers if the network settings on the other side of
the router are set up.
These are the 'Remote Trend Devices' settings in IQ3s and

3xtends. They are used to create a routing table which
allows Trend devices to create an internetwork through a
router.

The Remote Trend devices list creates a form of routing

table. This allows a directed message to be sent between
Trend products through the router.
Set up the 'Remote Trend device' entry in the device with
the lowest IP address. The entry is the IP address and
subnet mask of the Trend device on another network that
the internetwork needs to link to. The other device must
also be the lowest Trend IP address on that network.
For fail safe, apply the rule using the two lowest addressed
Trend devices on each network.
A Trend Ethernet device is an IQ3, an EINC or a 3xtend.
The host name can be used if a WINS server is present on
the site.
Trend Remote Device Configuration
Select the device that requires the Remote Trend Addresses

to be configured.
Click on the + button next to the remote Trend devices

table.
Set up the details and click OK
When entered the remote devices are listed here.
Either the IP address or

the host name can be used.
If the host name is used
then the WINS server
address needs to be set up
in the Trend devices.
Link local does not support router spanning.

Exercise - Remote device configuration
Work with your neighbour sitting at one machine.
1. Disconnect your hub from the other desks so that the ip-Tools don't interfere.
2. Configure the 'Remote Trend Devices' settings in your Trend device with the
lowest IP address. As we are using DHCP you will have to use the host name of
a device on the other network. Ask someone on the other network for an
appropriate host name.
3. When you have written the data wait for all the groups to finish.
4. Reconnect all the Ethernet cables and fibre-optic links. In SET system view
delete the internetwork and local lan, then refresh the whole site.
5. You should now be able to browse the whole Trend site and see all eight IQ3
controllers, four IQ210s and four 3xtends.
When Routers Should Be Spanned
Routers are used on IT networks to interconnect IT LANs,

they create Wide Area Networks (WANS). Although the
Trend internetwork can be configured to span a router we
need to explore why?
IC Comms, only if you wish to communicate between
Trend controllers which are on different Subnets would
you need to span a router.

WAN links are not as reliable as LANs and some links may
use dial on demand connection. If the link is unstable the
Trend internetwork will be continually re-mapping, if the

Section 12 - Nulling Down IQ3
Aims and Objectives
Aims: Demonstrate how to reset an IQ3

controller back to factory settings.

able to :-
1. Reset a training IQ3 controller back to

Factory settings.
The IQ3 Reset Applet
The IQ3 Reset applet enables an IQ3 controller to be reset

to the factory defaults.
The process requires :-

1. Ethernet connection between PC and IQ3
2. serial connection between PC and IQ3 RS232 port
3. SET 5.2 or later
The Reset applet is useful if you:

1. cannot communicate with a controller using Ping or
ip-Tool.
2. wish to reset a controller back to the factory settings
for training or demonstration purposes.

Exercise - Using the reset applet 10 minutes
1. Make the two cable connections required - RS232 and Ethernet as shown on the
previous page. Use the serial cable in your kit box.
2. Power down your IQ3 controller.
3. In SET, go to Tools then Null down IQ3.
4. Click OK to the warning message.
5. Select the COM port being used for

the connection to the controller.
6. Enter the controller's MAC address

from the label.
7. Click on GO to start the reset.
8. Power up the IQ3 when instructed to do so.
9. Nulling down the IQ3 may take up to ten minutes, look for the Completed
message in the feedback line then close down the IQ3 nuller applet window and
SET.
10. Run up SET again and use iP Tool to check that the controller has been reset to the
factory settings. The identifier will be 'RESET_xx_xx_xx', where xx are the last
six digits of the MAC address.
11. Finally, disconnect and pack away all the equipment.

Appendix 1 - Internet Explorer Settings
Proxy Server:
Some sites have a proxy server for Internet connections. This cane be used
as a security checkpoint for Internet traffic, i.e. a channel for all web
browsing. If the proxy server is not aware of the IQ3xcite the user will fail to
connect with the controller. Therefore you will find the IQ3xcite web pages
cannot be displayed, this can be corrected a number of ways:
2) Select 'Connections'
1) Select 'Tools'
menu then 'Internet
Options...'
3) Click 'LAN
Settings...' button
4) If a Proxy server is configured try

the following:
i) Check 'Bypass proxy server for
local address'
ii) Click the 'Advance...' button and
add the IQ3 as an exception.
iii) Disable the proxy server setting.
iv) Consult the IT department to add
the IQ3xcite's address to the proxy
server.

Appendix 2 - Language Support for IQ3xcite
IQ3xcite firmware 1.22 and above has global language support and support
for right to left languages (e.g. Arabic and Chinese),
Current language files available are:

Danish, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Arabic and
Simplified Chinese
The controller stores English by default and other languages added using the
controllers address page:
Yellow: To select and

identify the default.
Green: To store in
controller. This will add
language file to
controller when
downloading.
Clear: To not send

language file to
controller.
The translation files are used to convert the English prompts in the WEB
browser and the alarm text transmitted from the controller.
The language files are

only sent to the
controller during a
download if the
Language(s) option is
ticked.
Language Support for IQ3xcite
Once downloaded it is possible to swap between languages using the WEB
Address module:
Type the appropriate

language in the Language
Selection box: i.e.
Dansk, Deutsch, English,
Espanol, Francais, Italiano
If the language exists in the
controller the controller
language will change.
What Versions do I require:

For the 8 bit and extended character sets listed overleaf (Aribic, Russian and
simplified chinese) you must have the following versions of firmware/
software.
i) IQ3xcite version 1.22 or greater

ii) SET version 5.22 or greater
iii) 963 version 2 or greater
iv) 3xtend/EINC version 1.0 or greater
Note: The Trend 20mA current loop, EINCs and previous versions of devices
listed above only support 7 bit character sets, not the 8 bit and extended
charater sets mentioned above.
Language Support New Languages:

The language files are installed as part of SET in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Trend Control Systems\System Engineering

Tool\Language
If a new language is required, which does not exist contact Trend via your
normal route.
Appendix 3 - Remote Access Scenarios
Scenario 1 - Existing IT Department & Firewall
If there is an existing IT Network with a network administrator you will have

to ask for access via the firewall. Firewalls use a number of methods to
enable/disable access. The next few pages describe the most common
methods.
Scenario 2 - BMS Network & Modem Router
If the IT network is purely for BMS and there is no firewall on site a

LANmodem/Router or broadband Router can be used.
A Modem router can be configured to receive incoming calls and accept

remote P.C.s onto the network. In Trend terms once this has been achieved
either SET, 963 or the web browser can be used.

What is a Firewall?
A firewall provides a proxy connection for one network (internal) onto a
second network (the Internet).
Internal Building
Network
Firewall
WAN
The firewall allows the internal network to be protected from unauthorised

access from outside the organisation.
Firewalls also provide a single 'choke point'

where security and auditing can be imposed.
Firewalls - How do they work?
There are many different types and methods of protection with firewalls.
Two simple methods are dynamic address allocation and packet-filtering.
Dynamic Address Allocation:

Also known as Network Address Translation (NAT), the firewall will replace
the source address of any outgoing messages with its own, and then send any
replies back to the correct device.
A Firewall
IP address pool
171.192.1.1 2) Firewall allocates IP
address from a registered
company pool. 200.200.1.X
1) A message from A to B will
have the source address
replaced with 200.200.1.1
WAN
B
3) The reply from B will be sent to
200.200.1.1, therefore the firewall
will forward this to A.
This offers two benefits, the internal network addresses are not seen on the
internet therefore they do not need to be registered with the IANA and they
are kept secure.
Firewalls - How do they work?
Packet-Filtering Firewalls:
The firewall is set up to block communications between the two networks
unless a rule is configured. The rule is based on port number, source and
destination IP address.

The rules in this table are configured to allow internal devices to browse the
WEB, send e-mail, for EINC alarms and for Trend virtual CNCs.
Appendix 4 - Alarms to an Email Address
The alarm destination modules can be configured to transmit alarms to an
Email address. The following points show the steps involved and the path
taken by a message.
1) Configure the site

Email server in the
IQ3 address page.
2) Configure the alarm destination

module type to Email and set up the

Appendix 5 - Text comms with IQ3xcites
Summary of IQ3xcite differences for Text comms:-
If using item attributes (labels) for searching:
IQ2 message format = Room*($,V,%)

IQ3xcite message format = Room*($,V,%)
There is no format difference between controllers, however this shows replies from any
matching module attribute, i.e. Sensors, Knobs, sWitches. Therefore if searching for specific
module types, this shows a different format needs to be used:
IQ2 message format = S\Room*($,V,%)

IQ3xcite message format = S{$="Room*"}($,V,%)
When launching full controller attribute & item attribute text comms.
IQ2 message format = Floor 1\Occ*($,V,%)

IQ3 message format = Floor 1\Occ*($,V,%)
Note:
IQ2's will accept "\" or "/" between controller attribute and module
attribute IQ3xcites will only accept "\".
There is limited difference in the message format used, however this shows replies from any
matching module attribute, i.e. Sensors, Knobs, sWitches. Therefore if searching for specific
controller attributes and module types use:
IQ2 message format = Floor 1\K\Occ*($,V,%)

IQ3xcite message format = Floor 1\K{$="Occ*"}($,V,%)
Visitor Messages:
IQ3xcite controllers at present do not respond to visitor messages.
IQ3xcite firmware 1.2 will respond to IC Comms visitor messages.
Note:
the Text comms window has an 'Options' button, as
shown the protocol character can be selected. This
specifies the communications protocol that is used. It
should always be set to v Normal for Pre IQ3
controllers. It should be set to t Structured for IQ3
controllers. This allows deeper module information to be
retrieved, for example Time zone day period start and
stop times.
When communicating with IQ3 controllers v Normal

can be selected if the results of v comms are required.
However if you do this, the structured parameters will
not be shown.

Timemaster: The IQ3 can act as a Timemaster for the Trend

system (IQ1s - post 1989, IQ2s, IQ3s, and IQLs). It will maintain time
and date synchronisation for all IQ controllers and effect daylight
savings from a single source. However, each section of a system
separated by auto-dialled links requires its own Timemaster.
The IQ3 does not provide the Timekeeper functionality; this was
only required for IQ90s which did not have a battery backed real
time clock, and they should be supported by a pre-IQ3 Timekeeper
controller on their own Lan.
Note that on a combined system (IQ3s with other IQs) an IQ3
must be the Timemaster.
The Timemaster IQ3 should be fitted with the battery option board
which will support it in the case of power failure.
An IQ3 can be set by UTC time (Co-ordinated Universal Time,
approximately the same as GMT), and has a UTC Offset parameter
to define its time zone difference from UTC time.
The UTC offset and daylight savings details should be set up in
the Timemaster so that all other IQs can be synchronised Graphical display pages (GraphIQs) which are configured using
accordingly. IQ3 display and directory modules, can also be accessed (see
the example below of a dual boiler system GraphIQ page).
Language: The user can specify which language the IQ3 uses for
the display of web pages and for transmitted alarms. All the required
text is separately stored as a text file in SET and can be translated
to form a language file. The required files can be selected for each
SET project. English is always available in the controller, but SET
enables a default language as well as additional languages to be
selected. The appropriate language files will be downloaded to the
controller when the strategy is downloaded. In the controller the
Address module has a language parameter which will be set by
default to the default language, but can be changed to any one of
the other available language files or English (e.g. change to English
by setting the language parameter to english on the address
module webpage). The IQ3 can use languages which require 8 bit
code (i.e. special or accented characters) and can also operate
with right to left languages (e.g. Chinese, Arabic).

Reference Manual TA200768, the IQ3 Web User Guide, TC200631,
