System Description
The Bently Nevada Transient Data Interface (TDIX) is a
communications processor that collects information from
system monitors and communicates this information to a host
computer and/or digital control system (DCS). This section
explains how the TDIX collects and communicates this
information and then describes the features, functions, and
components of the TDIX.
-0
1 .I System Compatibility
The TDIX is compatible with the Bently Nevada 2201 and 3300
monitoring systems and can daisy chain with other Bently
Nevada communication processors on both the TDIX host and
SDI links. The following block diagrams summarize TDIX
signal connections and the products that can directly interface
with the TDIX.

1.2 Functions
The TDIX collects dynamic machinery information under steady
state and transient conditions from system monitors and
communicates this information to the Bently Nevada host (a
computer running TDM2 software) and/or programmable logic
controller (or PLC) in the digital control system (DCS). The
following sections tell how the TDIX collects and stores startup, -
1-2
shutdown, and steady state information from the monitored

machinery and how it communicates this information from a
monitor rack to the Bently Nevada host or DCS.
1.2.1 Data collection

The TDIX collects data two ways: normal or delta-time
sampling and startup/shutdown (SUSD) or delta-RPM
sampling. These sampling methods determine when the TDIX
collects data from the monitors. Although the TDIX always
collects delta-time samples, it collects delta-RPM samples only
when set up for SUSD sampling.
Each delta-time and delta-RPM data set holds 320 vector and
32 waveform records. Vector records contain the direct, gap,
amplitude, and phase information for each dynamic monitor.
Waveform records contain 1024 samples each of synchronous
and asynchronous waveform data.
Normal (Delta-time sampling)

In normal sampling, the TDIX uses a programmable time
interval to periodically collect data. Delta-time sampling shows
how the sampled data changes over time and is typically used
to observe the steady state, or normal, operation of the
monitored system.
The TDIX always takes delta-time samples. This allows the

TDIX to collect periodic data during the times when RPM
changes are occurring so slowly that delta-RPM samples are
relatively far apart in time. This can occur for a machine that
ramps up in speed very slowly or must periodically run at
constant speed plateaus such as heat-soak periods in steam
turbines.
Startup/shutdown (Delta-RPM sampling)

For delta-RPM sampling a change in RPM, rather than a time
interval, determines when samples are taken. This sampling
mode lets you observe transient operating conditions and
de?ermine how the machine parameters change as RPM
increases (startup mode), decreases (shutdown mode), or both
increases or decreases (dual mode). The TDIX can collect two
sets of delta-RPM data using any combination of delta-RPM
modes.
l-3
Delta-RPM sampling will occur when all the following steps are
performed:
1) Use the TDM2 software to specify the following

parameters for each delta-RPM buffer that is being
used (these are required for all delta-RPM sampling
modes):
. the Low RPM set point
. the High RPM set point
. the RPM interval for data sampling
2) Enable the TDIX either

a) with an external signal connected to the SUSD
inputs of a Keyphasor connector
OR
b) with a host command to begin delta-RPM
sampling.
(To allow TDM2 software to perform automatic uploads,
the external signal is required.)
3) When the monitored RPM falls within the user-defined

RPM range (between the Low and High RPM set
points) delta-RPM sampling will begin.
The Low and High RPM set points only define the starting
point. Once delta-RPM sampling is started it will continue until
the TDIX receives a command to stop delta-RPM sampling or
until the data set buffer is full and configuration prevents the
TDIX from overwriting the collected data (cf. Section 2 for
details on how to configure the TDIX).
The RPM interval sets the RPM values at which the TDIX
collects samples. During delta-RPM operation, the TDIX
attempts to collect samples at exact multiples of the RPM
interval. If, for example, the specified startup mode had a Low
RPM set point of 110 RPM, High RPM set point of 150 RPM,
and RPM interval of 25 RPM, the TDIX would attempt to collect
the first delta-RPM sample at 125 RPM (the first multiple of 25
RPM), the second at 150 RPM, the third at 175 RPM, and so
on. The following graph illustrates this.
l-4

HIGH RPM SET POINT

I I 3 TIME

SAMPLE NUMBER
During operation the TDIX periodically checks the RPM to

determine if it should take another sample. This means that it
might check the RPM slightly after the nominal sampling RPM
is reached, rather than at ideal sampling RPM. For startup
mode the first value collected would be at the first measured
RPM value above the nominal RPM value, and for shutdown
mode the first measured RPM value below the nominal RPM
value. In each case the TDIX associates the collected data
with the nominal, rather than actual, sampling RPM.
Although the TDIX stores 320 vector and 32 waveform records

in each data set, it collects 280 vector and 28 waveform
records in delta-RPM mode. This is because the TDIX
automatically preserves the 40 most recent delta-time vector
records and 4 most recent delta-time waveform records when
delta-RPM sampling is enabled via a SUSD signal being
applied or a host command being received.
While each of the three TDIX SUSD sampling modes is

intended to collect data under certain operating conditions, the
TDIX can collect data for any set of increasing or decreasing
tpm values. A brief description of each TDIX SUSD mode is
given below.
Startup mode collects data when RPM has increased a
l-5
1 System Description TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual
you observe the startup characteristics of a system.
Shutdown mode is similar to startup mode except that the TDIX

samples data as RPM decreases. This mode lets you observe
the shutdown characteristics of a system.
Dual mode combines the capabilities of startup and shutdown

modes by collecting data samples as RPM both increases and
decreases. Use this mode when RPM behavior changes
during data collection, such as during an aborted startup run or
when the load changes during startup or shutdown. Note that
during dual mode operation RPM must increase or decrease to
the next RPM sampling point before the TDIX will capture a
new data value. If, for example, the RPM interval were 25
RPM and the TDIX had just taken a delta-RPM sample at 150
RPM, RPM must increase to 175 RPM or decrease to 125
RPM for the TDIX to collect the next data point. This prevents
the TDIX from capturing multiple data values for some RPM
sampling point if the machine RPM happens to fluctuate about
that point.

no shutdown rpm data was collected.
1.2.2 Serial communications

As a communications processor, the TDIX handles serial
communications between the Bently Nevada host computer or
digital control system (DCS), and monitor rack. Both the Bently
Nevada host and DCS channels can operate using RS-232 or
RS-422 protocol and can daisy chain up to 12 communications
processors on each link.
The sections below describe each serial channel.
TDIX Link
The TDIX communicates with the Bently Nevada host
computer over the TDIX host channel (also called the TDIX
link). This link is also used to download TDIX configuration
information.
SDI Link (Allen-BradleylModbus Protocol)

The DCS channel (also called the serial data interface or SDI
link) connects the TDIX with the digital control system and
supports both Allen-Bradley and Modbus protocols. The
system process logic controller (PLC) communicates with the
TDIX over this link. Modbus protocol allows the TDIX to daisy-
chain up to 12 communication processors on the SDI link.
To maintain precision, the TDIX sends all data over the SDI link
as 12-bit proportional values. (See Appendix C for the
proportionality of the data types.)
Monitor Rack Link

The TDIX communicates serially with the monitor rack through
the static data connector.
The table below lists the products and systems that can
connect directly to the TDIX. Note that this is a general
connection guide only. Some products may require hardware
and/or firmware upgrades to function properly with the TDIX.
Note also that, although a number of products can connect to
the TDIX on the host and SDI links, each active link must
l-9
ultimately connect to a host or controller for the TDIX to

function.

1.3.1 TDIX Components

This section describes each of the major TDIX components.
The sampler backplane supplies the interface between the

TDIX system backplane, the Keyphasor indicator board, and up
to 12 sampler boards. The sampler backplane also provides
the static and dynamic connectors for connecting the TDIX to
the monitor rack.
The Kevphasor indicator board (or indicator board) contains the

LED status lights that indicate the operating condition of the
TDIX. These status LEDs are visible through the window in the
TDIX top cover.
The sampler boards collect data from the buffered transducer

outputs. The sampler backplane can hold up to 12 sampler
boards that correspond to monitors in the 3300 monitor rack.
The CPU board controls the overall operation of the TDIX and
provides the serial communication channels between the TDIX
and the rest of the monitoring system. This board contains the
TDiX and SDIX serial connectors, communications protocol
and termination switches, and system reset/initialize switch.
The Kevphasor board obtains the TDIX timing from the system
Keyphasor signals and provides connectors for the Keyphasor,
alarm-in/alarm-out and startup/shutdown circuitry.
The TDIX system backplane carries control and data signals

between the individual TDIX system boards and provides
1-12
power from the TDIX power supply to each of the TDIX system
boards.
The power supply provides the DC supply voltages required by

the TDIX system.

TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 2 Installation
2 Installation
Installing the TDIX involves these basic steps:
l Verifying that TDIX is compatible with the monitoring system

l Planning the TDIX orientation, location, and clearance
l Installing boards in the TDIX
l Setting the communication switches on the CPU board
. Installing the TDIX
l Connecting cables between the TDIX, power source, host
computer, and monitoring system
. Initializing the TDIX
2.1 Verifying System Compatibility

Although the TDIX is fully compatible with the Bently Nevada
3300 Monitoring System, you may need to upgrade the system
monitor and the firmware in some older monitors before they
can function with the TDIX. Earlier system monitors and
firmware will not harm the 3300 equipment or the TDIX, but the
TDIX will not be able to communicate with the 3300 rack.
If your 3300 system monitor is compatible with the TDIX, you

must be sure to option the 3300 system monitor for an external
data manager and disable the SDI/DDI boards (if installed)
before installing the TDIX. The manual for your 3300 system
monitor will instruct you on how to do this.
A TDM in the same chain as the TDIX may be incompatible.

You may need to upgrade the TDM firmware to be compatible.
Consult the 3300 System Compatibility Guide included with the

TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual for more details.
2.2 TDIX Physical Installation Requirements

Choose a location to mount the TDIX according to these
guidelines for optimum TDIX operation.
. The TDIX must have the recommended orientation and

clearances shown in the following diagrams to allow for
adequate ventilation and to provide access to all the boards
and switches. If you mount the TDIX differently, derate the
operating temperature range according to the following
table.
2-l

2.3 Installing Boards in the TDIX

The TDIX card cage contains a CPU board, Keyphasor board,
system backplane, sampler backplane, indicator board, and 1
to 12 sampler boards. The indicator board and sampler boards
plug into the sampler backplane. The sampler backplane, CPU
board, and Keyphasor board connect to the TDIX system
backplane.
2.3.1 General board installation procedures

This section shows how to install and remove the TDIX boards.
Although boards for your TDIX are installed before you receive
it, you may need to re-arrange the sampler boards to match the
configuration of your monitor or replace one of the TDIX boards
sometime in the future. Before you install or remove any
board, consult the appropriate section of this manual for
instructions specific to that board.

2.3.2 Specific board installation procedures

The following sections describe installation instructions specific
to each of the TDIX boards.
Sampler boards
The 12 backplane connectors nearest the static and dynamic
data connectors hold the TDIX sampler boards, as shown on
Page 2-5. The connectors on the sampler boards and sampler
backplane are offset to prevent sampler boards from being
inserted backwards in the sampler backplane.
Although the TDIX sampler boards are interchangeable, each

TDIX sampler slot corresponds to a specific monitor position in
the monitoring rack. This allows you to set up the TDIX to
match any 3300 monitor rack configuration. Be sure to insert
the board in the sampler backplane slot that corresponds to the
correct rack monitor position.
SAMPLER I
SAMPLER 2
SAMPLER 3
:
SAMPiER 12
MONITOR POSITION I -’
MONITOR POSITION 2 -
MONlT3R POSITION 3 -
..
.
MONITOR POSITION I2
Some 3300 monitors will occupy more than one rack monitor
position. You must install a sampler board for every rack
monitor position that collects dynamic data, so that a single
monitor could require 2 or more sampler boards in the
2-12
-
corresponding TDIX sampler slots. The manual for your

monitor will tell you how many rack positions your monitor
occupies, and whether it collects dynamic data.
Before you remove a sampler board you intend to replace, be

sure to record the slot it occupies to help avoid installing the
sampler board in the wrong backplane slot. Similarly, when
initially installing a sampler board, be sure to insert the board in
the slot that corresponds to the correct rack monitor position.
Inserting a sampler board in the wrong sampler slot will not
damage the system but will prevent the TDIX from collecting
valid data from the monitor rack.
Although the sampler boards and Keyphasor indicator board

will fit any of the sampler backplane slots, these two board
types are not interchangeable. Placing a board in the wrong
slot will not damage the system but will prevent the TDIX from
functioning properly. The TDIX will resume normal operation
once the sampler and indicator boards are installed correctly.
Keyphasor indicator board

As with the sampler boards, the connector of the Keyphasor
indicator board is offset to prevent possible misconnection with
the sampler backplane. The Keyphasor indicator board (or
indicator board) occupies the connector nearest the TDIX
system backplane, as illustrated on Page 2-5. When the
indicator board is properly installed, the indicator LEDs will be
visible through the window in the closed TDIX access cover.
Although the indicator board and sampler boards will fit any of
the sampler backplane slots, these two board types are not
interchangeable. Placing a board in the wrong slot will not
damage the system but will prevent the TDIX from functioning
properly. Normal TDIX operation will resume once the sampler
and indicator boards are correctly installed.

Sampler backplane
The sampler backplane is in the TDIX backplane slot furthest
from the power supply compartment, as illustrated on Page 2-
5. This board holds connectors for the indicator and sampler
boards and provides the static and dynamic data connectors.
The sampler backplane will fit in any of the TDIX backplane

slots but not function in any slot other than its own, so be
careful not to install it in the wrong position. Inserting the
sampler backplane in another slot will not damage the TDIX,
but will prevent the TDIX from operating correctly.
Before you remove the sampler backplane from the TDIX

backplane, disconnect the static and dynamic data cables,
2-14
record the positions of the sampler boards, and remove all
boards from the sampler backplane. Recording the positions
of the sampler boards before removing them will help you
replace them when you reinstall the sampler backplane later.
CPU board
The CPU board occupies the TDIX backplane slot between the
sampler backplane and Keyphasor boards, as the figure on
Page 2-5 shows. It provides the last rack switches, protocol
switches, and connectors for the host and SDI links, and the
TDIX reset/initialize switch.
The CPU board will fit into any of the TDIX backplane slots, so
be careful not to install it in the wrong position. Inserting the
CPU board in another slot will not damage the TDIX but will
prevent the TDIX from operating correctly.
Before removing the CPU board from the TDIX, you should
disconnect the serial communication cables. Because these
cables are similar, label each cable pair with the name of their
communications connection (i.e, TDIX or SDIX). Labeling the
cables will help you to reconnect them correctly when you
replace the CPU board later.
Keyphasor board
The Keyphasor board occupies the TDIX backplane slot
nearest the TDIX power supply compartment and is shown on
Page 2-5. Four connectors provide the Keyphasor, alarm, and
startup/shutdown connections for the system.
As with the other TDIX backplane boards, the Keyphasor board

will fit into any of the backplane slots. Installing the Keyphasor
board in any slot other than its own will not damage the TDIX
but will prevent the TDIX from operating correctly.
Before removing the Keyphasor board, you should detach the

Keyphasor terminal blocks from the board. Because these
terminal blocks are identical, you should clearly label them to
identify the Keyphasor connector (1, 2, 3, or 4) to which they
belong. Labeling the connectors will help you to reconnect
them properly when you replace the Keyphasor board later.
2-15
2.4 Setting the Communication Switches
Each communications channel has two switches associated
with it: the last rack termination switch and the RS-232/RS-422
selection switch. These switches are located on the CPU
board, as illustrate below.

2.5.2 Keyphasor Board Connections
The Keyphasor board holds the four Keyphasor connectors for
the Keyphasor, alarm, and startup/shutdown signals. Each
connector and its signals correspond to a specific Keyphasor
number.
For more detail on the Keyphasor connectors, refer to the field

wiring diagrams in Appendix E of this manual.

For convenience, each of the Keyphasor connectors consists

of a removable terminal block and fixed board connector. This
design allows you to connect and remove the connector wires
without removing the entire Keyphasor board. To remove a
terminal block from its base, grip the block firmly and pull. If
the terminal block is attached too tightly to pull out, insert the
tip of an insulated flat-bladed screwdriver between the terminal
block and bottom shield of the Keyphasor board and loosen the
block by prying gently. Do not pull the block out by its wires
because this could loosen the wires and damage the wires or
connector.
It is recommended that you leave approximately 0.45 meters

(18 inches) of slack in the Keyphasor wires as a service loop.
2-22
After you have removed the terminal block from the connector
base, you can connect or remove wires as described in the
following sections and then replace the terminal block. The
following figures use the Keyphasor signal wire for illustration.
2-23
Connecting Keyphasor Wires to the Terminal Block

turning the corresponding lock
screw counter-clockwise.
Step 2 - Remove the wire from

the hole.
All Keyphasor connector wires must be AWG 18 or smaller (1

mm (.040 inch) diameter maximum) because larger wires will
not fit inside the terminal block properly and could come loose.
Do not remove more than 0.6 mm (0.25 inches) of insulation
from wires inserted in the terminal block, as adjacent connector
wires could short together and damage the system. No
exposed wire should extend beyond the front edge of the
Keyphasor terminal block.

2.53 CPU Board Serial Connections
The TDIX provides two channels of serial communication: the

Bently Nevada (BNC) host channel that connects the TDIX with
the TDIX host link and the DCS channel that connects to the
SDI link. Each channel has two connectors. The g-pin female
connector provides the TDIX-to-rack (or rack) connection, and
the g-pin male connector the TDIX-to-host (or host) connection.
The rack connector communicates with units down the link
(further from the host) and the host connector communicates
with units up the link (nearer the host).

Connecting the Serial Communication Cables
To attach a cable to one of the serial connectors, do the
following:
Step 1 - Refer to the TDIX

Serial Channel Cables table to
determine which cable attaches
to the serial connector. Refer to
Section 6 of this manual to see
the details of the cables.
Step 2 - Select the end of the

cable with the correct gender and
pin count for the TDIX serial
connector.
Step 3 - Connect the cable as

shown. Do not attempt to overtighten the screws, as this will strip the threads.
Removing the Serial Communications Cables

To disconnect a cable from a serial connector, do the following:
Step 1 - Loosen the cable

screws.
Step 2 - Pull the screws clear of

the threaded holes in the
connector baseplate.
Step 3 - Grasp the cable plug

and firmly pull the cable straight
back out of the connector. Do
not remove the cable by pulling
on the cord, as this will weaken
and damage the cable.
BNC host channel (TDIX host link) connection

The TDIX-to-host cable connects the TDIX host connector to
either the Bently Nevada host or the rack connector of a unit
further up the link. The TDIX-to-rack cable connects the rack
connector of the TDIX to the host connector of another unit
further down the link. If the TDIX is the last rack in the Bently
Nevada host link, the TDIX-to-rack cable and TDIX rack
connector are not used.
2-30
The following figure illustrates how the TDIX connects to the
TDIX link. For more information on which serial cable to use
see the TDIX Serial Channel Cables table. For more details on
a specific cable see Section 6 of this manual.

connector to the host connector of another unit further down
the link. If the TDIX is the last rack in the SDIX link, the SDIX-
to-rack cable and SDIX rack connector are not used.
The TDIX supports both Allen-Bradley DFI and Modicon

Modbus 300 protocols and can connect to many control and
automation products that support either of these protocols. We
have provided specific diagrams in this manual for the following
systems:
l Allen-Bradley 1770-KF2
. Allen-Bradley 1771-KE
l Allen-Bradley 1785KE
l Honeywell PLC Gateway (PLCG)
. Honeywell DHP-II Data Highway Port
The following sections describe how to connect the TDIX to

these systems. Although TDIX’s use of the Modbus protocol
allows up to 12 devices to share the SDI link, Allen-Bradley
uses full-duplex communication and does not permit daisy
2-31
chaining.

The TDIX will connect to the static and dynamic data

connectors of either a 3300, 3500 or 2201 monitor rack. The
location of the data connectors on a 3300 monitor rack will vary
with the type of power input module (PIM) for the rack. The
figure below shows the data connector locations for each of the
4 general PIM types.

Step 1 - Use the Data Cable
Selection Table to determine
which cable is required for the
connection.
Step 2 - Select the cable

connector with the correct gender
and pin count for the data
connector.
Step 3 - Connect the cable to the

connector as shown. Do not
attempt to overtighten the cable
screws, as this will strip the
threads.
It is recommended that you leave approximately 0.45 meters

(18 inches) of slack in the cable as a service loop.
Removing Data Cables

- Tc disconnect a cable from a data connector, follow the
directions below. The dynamic data cable is used for
illustration.
Step 1 - Loosen the cable

screws.
Step 2 - Pull the screws clear of

the threaded holes.
Step 3 - Grasp the cable plug

and firmly pull the cable straight
back out of the connector. Do not
remove the cable by pulling on the
cord, as this will weaken and
damage the cable.
Static data
The smaller, 15pin connector on the sampler backplane is the
static data connector. This connector provides the serial
communication connection for transferring static data from the
monitor rack to the host.
2-37
The other end of the static data cable connects to the static
data connector of either a Bently Nevada 3300 or Bently
Nevada 2201 monitor rack. The static data connector for the
3300 monitor rack is labelled “STATIC’and located on the
power input module (PIM) on the rear of the rack. The static
data connector for the 2201 monitor rack is labelled “STATIC”
and located on the front of the 2201 system monitor as shown.
Dynamic data
The larger, 25pin connector on the sampler backplane is the
dynamic data connector. This connector provides up to 24
channels of dynamic data from the monitors to the sampler
boards.
The other end of the dynamic data cable connects to the

dynamic data connector of either a Bently Nevada 3300 or
Bently Nevada 2201 monitor rack.
2-38
The dynamic data connector for the 3300 monitor rack is
labelled “DYNAMIC’and located on the power input module
(PIM) on the rear of the rack. The dynamic data connector for
the 2201 monitor rack is labelled “DYNAMIC” and located on
the front of the 2201 system monitor as indicated.
2.6 Initializing the TDIX with TDlnit

The TDIX manual comes with TDlnit initialization software that
lets you configure the TDIX without using switches and
jumpers. This section describes the DOS version of TDlnit
shipped with this manual. Use TDlnit to:
Choose initialization settings

Save settings to disk
Load settings from disk
Print current settings
Download setting choices to the TDIX
Upload settings from the TDIX
2-39
The TDIX may also be configured using the QNX version of

TDlnit that ships with the TDMZ software. The QNX version is
described in the TDM2 software documentation.
To prepare a TDIX for use you must first initialize it and then
configure it. Initialization consists of using the TDlnit software
to choose operating parameters for the TDIX. These
parameters specify Keyphasor and communication
characteristics, allowing it to communicate on the host and SDI
links. Since they are stored in non-volatile memory in the
download process, you only need to initialize the TDIX once
unless you decide to change the parameters.
TDlnit contains a factory-default configuration for the TDIX so

that it can begin operation. The TDM2 software must be used
to download monitor-related information to the TDIX so that it
can collect data correctly.
This section shows how to use TDlnit to initialize a TDIX by

installing TDlnit, setting TDIX choices in TDlnit, initializing the
TDIX, and changing TDIX settings.
2.6.1 Installing TDlnit

To install TDlnit, use the DOS PRINT or TYPE command to
read the readme.txt file and follow the instructions contained in
the file. To run TDlnit you will need a 286 (or better) PC
equipped with an EGA or VGA display and at least 256K of free
memory. A mouse is recommended but not required. To
communicate with a TDIX you will also need a free COMI or
COM2 port.
TDlnit can run under Microsoft Windows version 3.0 or later as

a Non-Windows Application. To do so you will need to create a
Windows PIF file as described in readme.txt.
Start the program by typing tdinit. The program uses a

drop-down menu and a series of pop-up menus. Online help
contains information about using these menus. To enter help,
select Help or press Alt-h. To exit help, press Esc or the Quit
button.
2.6.2 Setting the Initialization Parameters

When you start the program all initialization settings contain
default values. Modify these values with three pop-up screens
under the TDIX Parameters menu: TDI Parameters, SDI
Parameters, and Keyphasor Parameters.
2-40
TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 2 installation
TDI Parameters
TDI Parameters control communications with the host
computer over the TDIX host link.
Rack Address specifies the address that the TDIX responds to

when in normal operating mode. Valid addresses are from 1 to
255 decimal. Each Communications Processor on the same
daisy-chain must be set for a unique address. The TDIX SDIX
communications port uses the same address.
Last Rack indicates that the TDIX is the last unit in the
communications daisy-chain or the only unit installed. You
should disable this field otherwise. The last rack circuitry is
actually set with a switch on the CPU board, but the switch
setting is read back and compared when you download the
initialization data. If the switch setting does not match this
field’s value, TDlnit will return a warning.
Enable Modem is enabled if the TDIX will communicate with

the host computer through a telephone modem. You should
disable this field if the communication link uses a direct
connection or a short-haul modem.
Baud Rate specifies the baud rate the TDIX uses to

communicate with the host computer on the TDIX link.
Interface specifies the interface type (RS-422 or RS-232) the

TDIX uses to communicate with the host computer. The
interface type is actually set with a switch on the TDIX, but the
switch setting is read back and compared when initialization
data is downloaded. If the switch setting does not match this
field’s value, TDlnit will return a warning.
Timeout sets the amount of time, in byte transmission time

units, the TDIX uses to recognize the end of an incoming
message. The timeout period begins when bytes stop arriving.
The default value of three bytes is suitable for direct-wired

installations. Longer timeouts may be necessary for modem
installations. In general, choose the shortest timeout that
works reliably.
2-41
SDI Parameters
SDI Parameters control communications with the DCS
computer over the SDI link.
Enable SDI is enabled if you are using the SDI link. You should
disable this field if you are not using the SDI link.
Enable CRC is enabled to improve error detection. Since

CRCs (cyclic redundancy checks) are time-consuming to
calculate, you will reduce throughput by enabling this field.
Enable this field only when necessary, such as with a noisy
communications line.
Enable Modem is enabled if the TDIX will communicate

through a telephone modem. You should disable this field if the
communication link is a direct connection or a short-haul
modem.
Last Rack indicates that the TDIX is the last unit in the
communications daisy-chain or the only unit installed. You
should disable this field if there are other units further down the
SDI link. The last rack circuitry is actually set with a switch on
the CPU board, but the switch setting is read back and
compared when you download the initialization data. If the
switch setting does not match this field’s value, TDlnit will
return a warning.
Interface specifies the interface type (RS-422 or RS-232) the

TDIX uses to communicate on the SDI link. The interface type
is actually set with a switch on the TDIX, but the switch setting
is read back and compared when initialization data is
downloaded. If the switch setting does not match this field’s
value, TDlnit will return a warning.
Protocol sets the communications protocol (Modicon Modbus

or Allen-Bradley) that will be used on the SDI link.
Format specifies the data format (Hex or BCD) that the TDIX
will use on the SDI link.
Baud Rate set the baud rate the TDIX will use on the SDI link.
Stop Bits determines the number of stop bits (1 or 2) the TDIX

uses on the SDI link. You should normally select 1 stop bit for
this field.
Parity sets the parity type (Even, Odd, or None) the TDIX uses
on the SDI link.
Timeout specifies the amount of time, in byte transmission
2-42
-
time units, that the TDIX uses to recognize the end of an

incoming message. The timeout period begins when bytes
stop arriving.
The default value of three bytes is suitable for direct-wired

installations. Longer timeouts may be necessary for modem
installations. In general, choose the shortest timeout that
works reliably.
Keyphasor Parameters
Keyphasor Parameters specify the characteristics of the
Keyphasor signals.
w Note
Keyphasor Parameters apply only to the currently selected
Keyphasor. Select the number of the Keyphasor you wish to
configure before changing settings in this field.
KPH Number determines the Keyphasor being configured.
Threshold sets the voltage level at which Keyphasor triggering

occurs. Automatic specifies that the TDIX will determine the
trigger level. Manual specifies that Keyphasor triggering will
occur at the voltage value entered in Manual Threshold.
Automatic is generally preferable, as the shaft may change
position during machine operation. If the Keyphasor pulse is
especially narrow or has a low duty cycle, however, you may
need to use Manual Threshold.
Hysteresis determines the minimum voltage level shift used

for detecting Keyphasor state changes. The default is 0.2 volts
but a different value may be appropriate depending on machine
speed and electrical noise levels. A noisy signal may benefit
from greater hysteresis.
Edge defines the signal edge at which Keyphasor triggering

occurs. Select Notch to trigger the Keyphasor on a falling
edge, or Projection to trigger on a rising edge.
SUED Trigger sets the remote contact trigger condition used

to signal startup or shutdown. Select On Signal Application if
the remote contact is normally open. Select On Signal
Removal if the remote contact is normally closed.
2-43
2.6.3 Files
Saving your settings in files lets you avoid entering the settings
again each time you run TDlnit. This table shows how to use
the options in the Files menu. The TDlnit program expects the
file that contains the settings to have the .TDI extension.
Files Menu Ootions
Menu Option Function
New Create a new file. If you don’t specify a drive and path, the file will
be created in your default drive and directory.

communications between TDlnit and the TDIX. This table
shows how to use these options.
Communications Menu Options
Menu Option Function
Select Port Choose the communications port and configure the port with the
correct settings.
Download Write the current settings to the TDIX. Since the TDIX stores
these settings in non-volatile memory, download the settings only
once unless you are changing existing settings.
Upload Retrieve the settings from a TDIX. This command is useful for
changing the existing settings of a TDIX or for copying settings
from one TDIX to another.
Exit setup mode Instruct the TDIX to exit setup mode. After exiting setup mode
and passing self test, the TDIX will begin operating with the
L
configuration stored in its non-volatile memory.
2-44
2.6.5 Initializing the TDIX (DOS version)
Once you have entered your initialization settings and saved
the settings to a file, use this procedure to download them to
the TDIX. The TDIX stores the settings in non-volatile memory,
so you will not have to download them again unless you want
to change them.
Step 1 - Connect the TDIX Host connector to the COMI or

COM2 port on the computer running TDlnit using a standard
PC null modem cable or a Bently Nevada RS-232 serial cable.
Use cable 131180 if your computer has a 25-pin RS-232 serial
port, or cable 131207 if your computer has a g-pin RS-232
serial port.
Step 2 - Set the TDIX host link RS-232/RS-422 switch for RS-
232 communications.
Step 3 - Place the TDIX into setup mode by pressing the

reset/initialize switch on the CPU Card in the initialize direction.
Do not place more than one TDIX at a time in setup mode
because each will attempt to respond to the same message.
The LEDs on the TDIX must be sequencing before you can
communicate with the TDIX.
Step 4 - Initialize the communications port with the Select

Port command in the Communications menu.
Step 5 - Open a file using the Files menu (or use the current
settings).
Step 6 - Select Download on the Communications menu.

After the download is complete the TDIX confirms the settings
by sending them back to the computer. If the settings do not
agree an error message will be displayed.
Step 7 - When the download has successfully finished you

may exit TDlnit by selecting Exit setup mode in the
Communications menu or by pressing the reset/initialize
switch on the TDIX CPU Card in the reset direction. (Either
one of these options will cause the TDIX to be reset.)
After passing self test, the TDIX will being operating with the

2.6.6 Changing Initialization Settings of a TDIX

Use this procedure to modify settings in a TDIX that has
previously been initialized.
Step 1 - Connect the TDIX Host connector to the COMI or

COM2 port on the computer running TDlnit using a standard
PC null modem cable or a Bently Nevada RS-232 serial cable.
Use cable 131180 if your computer has a 25pin RS-232 serial
port, or cable 131207 if your computer has a g-pin RS-232
serial port.
Step 2 - Set the TDIX host link RS-232/RS-422 switch for RS-
232 communications.
Step 3 - Place the TDIX into setup mode by pressing the

reset/initialize switch on the CPU Card in the initialize direction.
Do not place more than one TDIX at a time in setup mode
because each will attempt to respond to the same message.
The LEDs on the TDIX must be sequencing before you can
communicate with the TDIX.
Step 4 - Initialize the communications port with the Select

Communications/Select Port menu.
Step 5 - Retrieve the TDIX’s current settings with

Communications/Upload.
Step 6 - Change the settings as desired. You may want to

save your new choices with the Files/Save As command.
Step 7 - Select Download on the Communications menu.

After the download is complete the TDIX confirms the settings
by sending them back to the computer. If the settings do not
agree an error message will be displayed.
Step 8 - When the download has successfully finished you

may exit TDlnit by selecting Exit setup mode on the
Communications menu or by pressing the reset/initialize switch
on the TDIX CPU Card in the reset direction. (Either one of
these options will cause the TDIX to be reset.)

2.7 Verifying Installation

This section explains how to use the indicator LEDs on the
Keyphasor indicator board to determine whether the unit is
installed and running properly. These LEDs provide
information about TDIX operation, power supply conditions,
and board status during unit power up, initialization, and normal
operation. The diagram below shows the condition reported by
each LED.
Tfmsiefff \
INITIALIZE
TEST NODE
Status LEDs present the diagnostic and operational information

during power up, initialization, and normal operation.
Power up
Upon power up, the status LEDs indicate the status of the
supply voltages and the outcomes of a number power-up self
tests. If the TDIX fails a self test it will set a status LED. After
all these self tests are finished, the TDIX sequentially strobes
the LEDs and blinks the “Program Running” LED to confirm
that the LEDs are still operational and that the TDIX firmware is
running. Self test will generally take between 2 to 3 minutes
(with 1 sampler board installed) and 4 minutes (with 12
sampler boards installed) to complete.
2-47
If the “Program Running” LED does not blink after power-up,
reset the TDIX by briefly rocking the center switch on the CPU
board towards the Keyphasor board, and then releasing it.
Initialization
If no problems are found by the power-up self test, the status
LEDs indicate whether the TDIX has received configuration
information. If the TDIX is in setup mode and waiting for
configuration data, the “Initialize” LED will be on. This LED will
remain on until
1. you reset the TDIX, or

2. the TDIX receives a host command to exit setup mode.
While the TDIX is in setup mode, the “Program Running” LED

flashes about once every second to indicate that the TDIX is
still operating.
Normal operation
Once the TDIX passes self test and has valid configuration
information, it begins normal operation and displays the current
operating condition on the status LEDs. As the TDIX program
runs, the “Program Running” LED flashes about once every
second. This flashing rate may vary slightly, depending upon
the amount of information the TDIX processes.
Each time the TDIX flashes the “Program Running” LED, it will
also briefly reverse the state of one of the status LEDs,
beginning with the “Test Mode” LED. Each of the LEDs, with
the exception of the “Power OK” LED, will be toggled in order.
The LED check will begin again at the “Test Mode” LED after
the “Sampler Backplane” LED is toggled. This method allows
you to verify that each LED is working without a separate lamp
test switch.

- TWX Operation and Maintenance Manual 3 System Diagnostics
3 System Diagnostics
The TDIX displays basic information about firmware and

hardware operation on the indicator LEDs.
3.1 Status LED Description

The status LEDs provide most of the information about the
TDIX status and are organized into two groups. The first group
contains 8 green LEDs, which report normal operating
conditions. The second group contains 15 red LEDs, which
signal abnormal conditions in the TDIX. These LEDs verify
TDIX operation and trace possible problems to specific boards
within the TDIX.
3.1 .I Monitored Operating Conditions

- The LEDs provide information on the status of supply voltages,
the operating condition of each circuit board, and the operation
of the TDIX firmware. Specifically, the LEDs report on the
following conditions:
l the status of the TDIX power supplies,

. the current TDIX operating mode,
lthe operation of specific-Keyphasors,
l the TDIX firmware operation,
l the status of specific sampler boards,
l the status of the CPU board, and
l the status of the Keyphasor board.
3.12 Condition LED Locations

The status LEDs are on the indicator board and are visible
through the window on the main access cover. The labels on
the cover next to the window indicates the condition monitored
by each of the LEDs.
3.2 LED Operation
Depending upon the condition being monitored and the actual
status, the corresponding LED may be on, off, or blinking. This
is due to the way the TDIX controls the LEDs as well as the
information the TDIX collects.
3-l
As the TDIX operates, it uses the LEDs to immediately report
any change it detects in the status of the power supplies,
Keyphasor signals, operating modes, and circuit boards. This
allows you to determine the operating status of the TDIX at any
time by simply examining the LEDs. To guard against a failure
in the indicator board itself, the TDIX also tests the status
LEDs themselves as part of the main firmware loop. It does
this by momentarily reversing the state of each LED in
sequence, so that each lit LED should briefly turn off and each
unlit LED should briefly turn on. The TDIX tests one of these
LEDs each time the firmware updates the “Program Running”
LED so that the status indicators sequentially blink in step with
the “Program Running” LED. The two exceptions to this are
the “Program Running” and “Power OK” LEDs. The “Program
Running” LED continuously blinks about once per second while
firmware is running. The “Power ON” LED is not under
firmware control and always indicates the condition of the
supply voltages.

Note that the indicators for the CPU, Keyphasor, and sampler
boards are fault-detection LEDs rather than fault-indication
LEDs. This means that these LEDs indicate only that the TDIX
has detected a fault in some board and that some corrective
action may be required. These LEDs do not imply that if no
fault is indicated no fault exists because the TDIX is unable to
test for all faults that might occur. Note also that the LEDs will
indicate the most probable cause of a detected fault in the
TDIX, but that the problem may actually be on another board.
3.2.2 Normal and Abnormal Indications

The following tables summarize the “on” or “OK” condition and
the “off’or “Not OK” condition for each status LED.

condition when it is on.
3.3 Problems and Symptoms Checklist

This section lists some possible symptoms and the problems
that may cause them. Typically the status LEDs will identify
the board causing the problem, but this is not always the case.

4.2.2 Message Type Descriptions
DIAGNOSTIC COUNTERS RESET - This command resets all

diagnostic counters to zero.
DIAGNOSTIC READ - During TDIX operation, the firmware will

keep track of two error event types. When a particular error
occurs, the TDIX will increment the associated counter. The
diagnostic read command accesses the diagnostic counters.
To read the diagnostic counters, configure the Allen-Bradley
module to pass on all diagnostic messages. All counters are
16 bit counters and will wrap around to zero when they
overflow. The counters implemented by the TDIX in the order
that they are returned are:
1. The number of times a communications error occurred

during a received message
2. Always zero - Not Implemented
3. Always zero - Not Implemented
4. The number of times a communications overrun has
occurred.

DIAGNOSTIC STATUS - This command reads the current

revision letters of the TDIX firmware. The response message
contains the diagnostic status as two bytes in the following
order:
Major Rev Number Updated whenever functions and

features are added to the
firmware.
Minor Rev Number Updated whenever minor

changes, minor improvements or

DIAGNOSTIC LOOP - Check the integrity of the transmission

over the communications link. This command message can
transmit up to 243 data bytes to the interface. The TDIX will
reply to this command by transmitting the same data back to
the original station.
UNPROTECTED READ - Read words of data from the TDIX

memory. Use this command to read direct and status values
from the TDIX.
UNPROTECTED WRITE - Write words of data to the TDIX

memory. Use this command to set the real time clock by writing
to the time and day registers. Setting the real time clock is only
allowed if the TDIX host has not set the date and time. Once
the TDIX host has set the date and time, the SDI link cannot be
used to set the real time clock.

4.3 Data Addressing
The Transient Data Interface uses fixed protocol addresses for
the starting location of data in a rack. The data addresses are
used in the protocol messages to access data which is
available from the interface and are not the physical data
addresses in the interface memory. The addresses which

IiF Note 1
The addresses for Direct Values and Monitor Status are
compatible with the 3300/01-02 Serial Interface. All other
addresses are the enhanced data types available from the
3300/03-02 Serial Data Interface. For addressing purposes,
a 2-channel double-wide monitor looks like a 2-channel
single-wide monitor in the left slot followed by an empty right
slot. A single channel monitor is treated as a dual channel
monitor with an ‘invalid data value for channel 2. Except for
the six channel temperature monitors (3300/30 and
3300/35), these addresses do not function properly with any
monitor which has more than 2 channels. Obtain the data
from monitors with more than two channels by using the
Current Proportional Values addresses.
4-4
@’Note 2
For all unprotected reads, at the message level, the Allen-
Bradley protocol refers to addresses as byte addresses.
Since the TDIX addresses are word based (2 bytes), the
address that is placed into the protocol message is the word
address multiplied by two. Byte addresses will always be
even and the byte count at the message level is the word
count multiolied bv two.
4.3.1 Data Type Descriptions
DIRECT VALUES - Direct values have a starting address of 8

and occupy contiguous protocol addresses. The first monitor
(monitor slot 1) is the leftmost monitor, just to the right of the
System Monitor. Each monitor has two direct values
associated with it, except for 6-channel temperature monitors
(3300/30, or 3300/35), that have 6 direct values. The channel
direct values are ordered first to last channel. Use the
configuration of the rack and this simple formula to calculate
the starting address of the direct values of a monitor:
Starting Address = 8 + 2[(monitor slot number -1) +

(number of 6-channel temperature monitors
located to the left of the selected monitor)]
Use the UNPROTECTED READ command (command code 1)

to access the direct values for the rack.
Example 1:
Read the direct values from a 3300 rack which contains 4 dual
vibration monitors installed in slots 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Assume
the rack address is set to 1, and the source address is set to 0.
The message request should be an unprotected read

command specifying 8 data words (16 bytes) starting at word
address 8 (byte address is 8.2 = 16). The Allen-Bradley
command format will have the ADDR field set to 16 (10 Hex),
and the SIZE field set to 20 (14 Hex). See note 2 above.
The following is the format for the command and reply

The address (10 Hex) was duplicated in the message since
DLE (10 Hex) is a control character in Allen-Bradley

teauires a second 10 Hex to be sent.
Example 2:
Read the direct values from a 3300 rack which has dual
vibration monitors installed in slots 1 and 2, and a 6-channel
temperature monitor in slot 5.
The data consists of IO values contained in non-sequential

locations starting at word address 8. To retrieve the data most
efficiently, request the first 14 words which will include the
values for the empty monitor slots 3 and 4. The host computer
should then discard the invalid data from monitor slots 3 and 4.
The Allen-Bradley command format will have the ADDR field

MONITOR STATUS - The monitor status indicators are

returned as 16-bit words with a value of 1 or 0. Each monitor
has three status words associated with it, Alert, Danger, and
not OK. Individual channel status is not available by reading
these addresses (see Channel Alarm Statuses in the Allen-
Bradley Data Addressing section). If any channel of a monitor
is in Alert, then the monitor status is Alert.
The monitor status indicators are in the order Alert, Danger,

and Not OK and occupy contiguous protocol addresses starting
at word address 48 (60 octal). Use the UNPROTECTED
READ command (command code 1) to read the monitor
statuses.
Example:
Read monitor status from a 3300 rack which has a dual
vibration monitor in slot 1 and a 6-channel temperature monitor
in slot 3.
The UNPROTECTED READ command should request 9 status _

words (18 bytes) starting at word address 48. The status from
the nonexistent monitor in slot 2 should be ignored by the host
computer. The Allen-Bradley command format will have the
ADDR field set to 96 and the SIZE field set to 18. See note 2
in the Allen-Bradley Protocol Data Addressing section.

w Note
In this example, Alert and Danger are active (true) and the
monitor is OK (NOT OK = false). Also, the least significant
byte is sent first and the true condition sets only the least
sianificant bit.
CURRENT PROPORTIONAL VALUES - The proportional

values include monitor values such as direct (e.g. overall
vibration amplitude), probe gap, IX and 2X amplitude and
phase. These values are different for each monitor type. See
the 3300 Proportional Data Value Types Appendix for monitor
values specific to a particular monitor type. Proportional values
have space for 16 values per monitor slot. Each slot can
return from 1 to 16 channels, and 1 to 8 values per channel,
but not more than 16 values total per slot. The number of
values per channel is constant for all channels of a monitor.
Each value is sent low byte to high byte. Addresses
corresponding to a position for a nonexistent monitor or the
2nd slot of a double wide 2-slot monitor contain invalid data.
This diagram shows the organization of the current proportional
values.
Addr = Address
ppl = proportional value
4-10
If a monitor is a double wide 2-slot monitor, the memory space

for the first slot (up to 16 values) is used before the space
defined for the second slot. For example, since a six-channel
temperature monitor occupies two monitor slots, and its data
fits in the memory space for one slot, the memory space for the
second slot will contain invalid data. As another example,
consider a 2-slot monitor which contains 30 proportional
values. The first slot would contain 16 proportional values, and
the second slot would contain the other 14. Use the
UNPROTECTED READ command (command code 1) to
access the current proportional values for the rack.
Example:
Read the current proportional values from a 3300 rack which
contains 2 dual vibration monitors (3300/16) installed in slots 1
and 2. Assume the Transient Data Interface address is 1 and
the source station address is 0.
The message request should be an UNPROTECTED READ

address 100 (byte address is 100 2 = 200). The Allen-

FAST TREND DATA - Fast Trend Data consists of 40 samples

for each data location where current proportional values are
taken. The data is ordered from oldest to newest with the
oldest sample in the lower address for the slot. The samples
are typically taken once every 4 seconds. The interval is read
from a single word and is in units of tenths of a second. When
reading the fast trend values use the following method: Read
the date and time stamp each time the fast trend values are
read so that you know if a fast trend update has occurred
between reads of proportional values in a monitor. Use the
UNPROTECTED READ command (command code 1) to
access the fast trend data values for the rack.
The Number of Fast Trend Samples will usually be 40.

However, if the fast trend data is requested just after a power-
up condition or a configuration command is received from the
TDIX, the number of samples could be less than 40.
The date/time stamp corresponds to the newest sample taken

and consists of the following fields, each of which occupy 1
word:

MONITOR COMMUNICATION STATUSES - The TDIX stores

a true/false value for the Monitor Communication Statuses for
each monitor. A “l”, or true, indicates a communication fault.
When a fault occurs, this indicates that a previously
communicating monitor is no longer communicating with the
TDIX.
If all previously communicating monitors enter a non-
4-19
communicating state, i.e, a loss of power to the rack etc., the

TDIX will fail to respond to any register query with the ONLY
exception being a loopback command (Command Code 6
Function 0). Therefore, a distinction can be made between
failure to communicate to a rack and failure to communicate to
the TDIX. If the TDIX responds to the loopback command but
not to any queries for monitor information, then the TDIX is
communicating properly and the monitor rack has entered a
non-communicating state.
In older revision TDIX’s, prior to Rev K firmware for the CPU

board, when the TDIX failed to communicate with the
monitor, the last valid values were used in responses to
monitor register queries.
4.4 Data Format

The Transient Data Interface retrieves data from the 3300
monitors in a serial digital format. Each monitor returns the
data in a 24-bit format. The Transient Data Interface then
truncates the lower 12 bits and sends the upper 12 bits in the
message response. See the example below:
4.5 Em bedded Responses

An embedded response occurs when a device sends a
command to the TDIX. The TDIX will send an ACK
(acknowledge) message if everything is correct and then start
sending the response. If during the response another device
sends a command to the TDIX, it will send an ACK or NAK (not
acknowledge) message to the second device during the
response to the first command. The ACK or NAK message is
inserted into the response message of the first command.
The Transient Data Interface implements embedded responses

with Allen-Bradley protocol. It will accept embedded responses
within incoming messages, and it may insert embedded
responses in outgoing messages. However, because up to 60
bytes may be transferred before inserting an imbedded
response in an outgoing message, it may be necessary to
increase the response timeout when you use lower baud rates
(4800 baud or lower).
4-20
,- TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 4 Alien Bradley Protocol
4.6 Exception Responses

The TDIX will return error codes in the response message
when it receives a message with an illegal function, address, or
data range. Error codes returned in the message are Allen-
Bradley type REMOTE error codes, IO Hex and 50 Hex.
ERROR CODE ERROR CONDITION

10 The command message was incorrect.
This includes the command code,
subcommand code, and the size of the
command or the requested size.
50 An attempt to access an illegal address

in the interface has aborted message
execution.
Data requests which are outside the address ranges

established in the Allen-Bradley Protocol Data Addressing
section of this manual will result in an error code 10 or an error
code 50 message response. Error code 10 will occur if the
starting address is valid, but the number of values requested
results in a data address outside of the valid range. Error code
50 occurs if the starting address is outside the valid address
range.
Although data addressing may overlap the following intervals,

these overlapping requests may not cross from a register value
to a status value boundary.

For a complete description of the Modbus message formats,
refer to the Gould Modbus Protocol Reference guide,
Publication PI-MBUS-300 Rev B - January 1985 or later.
When configured in a Modbus connection, the Transient Data

Interface will act only as a slave device. The mode of
transmission is Remote Terminal Unit (RTU). The TDIX
supports these messages:

d Note
All input point and input register addresses referenced in
this manual are zero based. Modicon programmable
controller (PC) locations are one based. The address
references in this manual relate directly to the Modbus
message format. If local host programming uses Modicon
PC addresses, convert the appropriate base from one to
zero. For example, if the input point address is 0, the
Modicon PC point will be 10001. If the input register
address is 0, the Modicon PC register will be 30001.

5.3 Data Addressing

The Transient Data Interface uses fixed protocol addresses for
the starting locations of the data in a rack. The data addresses
are used in the protocol messages to access data which is
available from the interface and are not the physical data
addresses in the Transient Data Interface memory. The
addresses which were established in the 3300/01-02 Serial
Interface are maintained in this product as well. The protocol
starting addresses are as follows:
DATA TYPE ADDRESSES ADDRESSES

(Decimal), (Decimal), NOTES
Zero Based One Based
Direct Values* 0 - 35 l-36
Most Recent Setpoint 90-96 91-97
Current Proportional Values(See Appendix C) 100-291 101 -292

* These addresses are compatible with the 3300/01-02 Serial

Interface. The other addresses specified are the enhanced
data types available from the Transient Data Interface. For
addressing purposes, a 2-channel double-wide monitor
looks like a 2-channel single-wide monitor in the left slot
followed by an empty right slot. A single channel monitor is
treated as a dual channel monitor with an invalid data value
5-4
,- TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 5 Modbus Protocol
for channel 2. Except for the six channel temperature

monitor (3300130 and 3300/35), these addresses do not
function properly with any monitor which has more than 2
channels. Obtain the data from monitors with more than
two channels by using the Current Proportional Values
addresses.
** These data types refer to “Registers” as being a 2 byte
word, where only 12 of 16 bytes are used. “Analog” type
data is stored here, and will contain values between 0 and
4095 (decimal). Values displayed on the 3300 front panel
LCD are a linear function of this number and the full scale
range. For example, if your full scale range is 5 mils ( this
could refer to a vibration measurement), and the data in the
register is 4095 (decimal), then the displayed value is 5 mils.
(This will be helpful when going through the examples). See
Appendix C.
l ***
These data types refer to a “point” as being a block of
data containing “digital” (on/off) information. For
Monitor Status, Monitor Mode Status, and Channel
Alarm Status, a “Point” refers to 1 Bit of data. (This will
be helpful when going through the examples).
53.1 Data Type Descriptions
DIRECT VALUES - The direct values address range is

compatible with the 3300/01-02 Serial Interface System
Monitor. Direct values have a starting address of 0 and occupy
contiguous protocol addresses. The first monitor (slot 1) is the
left most monitor just to the right of the System Monitor. The
entire rack’s direct values are located sequentially in adjacent
addresses. Each monitor will have two direct values
associated with it, except 6-channel temperature monitors
(3300/30 or 3300/35) that have 6 direct values. The channel
direct values are ordered first to last channel. Use the
configuration of the rack and this simple formula to calculate
the starting address of the direct values of a monitor.
Starting Address = 2[(monitor slot number -1) +

(number of 6-channel temperature monitors located to
the left of the selected monitor)]
Use the READ INPUT REGISTERS command (Function Code

4) to access the direct values for the rack.
MOST RECENT SETPOINT - Monitor setpoints may be read,

but not written. The setpoints are acquired one at a time. To
obtain a new setpoint, write to the query registers with the
5-5
5 Modbus Protocol TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual -
appropriate values defined below. Once the query registers

have been written, the setpoint information will be in the
setpoint input registers. Since setpoint acquisition is a low
priority process in the Transient Data Interface firmware, it may
take up to 1.5 seconds before the setpoint value will appear in
the query registers. Reading the query registers before this
time will yield the previous setpoint value from the previous
setpoint request.
If the query registers which indicate the setpoint location are

changed before the previous setpoint is acquired, then the
previously requested setpoint will not be acquired. The query
registers which direct the Transient Data Interface to acquire a
setpoint are as follows:
DATA VALUE REGISTER RANGE

NUMBER
Monitor Number 0 1 - 12
Channel Number 1 1 - 32
Setooint Number 2 1 - 255
Use the PRESET MULTIPLE REGISTERS command (function

code 16) or PRESET SINGLE REGISTER (function code 6) to
write to the query registers.
Once a setpoint value is written to the setpoint input registers,

use the READ INPUT REGISTERS command (Function Code
4) to acquire the setpoint data. The locations of the setpoint
data are as follows:
DATA VALUE REGISTER RANGE

Monitor Number 90 o - 12
Channel Number 91 0 - 32
Setpoint Number 92 O-255

Setpoint Type 93 0 - 255 (note 1)

Setpoint Upper Range I 96 ( 0 - 4095 (note 2)

2 - 12-bit proportional
CURRENT PROPORTIONAL VALUES - The proportional

values include monitor values such as direct (e.g. overall
5-6
,- TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 5 Modbus Protocol
vibration amplitude), probe gap, IX and 2X amplitude and

phase. These values are different for each monitor type. See
the 3300 Proportional Data Value Appendix for monitor values
specific to a particular monitor type. Proportional values have
space available for 16 values per monitor slot. Each slot can
return from 0 to 16 channels, and 0 to 8 values per channel,
but not more than 16 values total per slot. The number of
values per channel is constant for all channels of a monitor.
Each value is sent high byte to low byte. Addresses
corresponding to a position for a nonexistent monitor or the
2nd slot of a double wide 2-slot monitor contain invalid data.
The following diagram shows the organization of the current

proportional values.
If a monitor is a double-wide 2-slot monitor, the memory space

for the first slot is used before the space defined for the second
slot. For example, since a six-channel temperature monitor
takes two monitor slots and its data fits in the memory space
for one slot, the memory space for the second slot will contain
invalid data. As another example, consider a 2-slot monitor
which contains 30 proportional values. The first slot would
contain 16 proportional values and the second slot would
contain the other 14.

4) to access the current proportional values for the rack.
5-7
FAST TREND DATA - Fast Trend Data consists of 40

samples, ordered from oldest to newest, for each data location
where current proportional values are taken. The samples are
typically taken once every 4 seconds. The interval is read from
a single word and is in tenths of a second units. When reading
the fast trend values, use the following method: Read the data
and time stamp each time the fast trend values are read so
that you know if a fast trend update has occurred between
reads of proportional values in a monitor.

4) to access the fast trend data values for the rack.
The number of fast trend samples will usually be 40. However,

if the fast trend data is requested just after a power-up
condition, the number of samples could be less than 40.
The date/time stamp corresponds to the newest sample taken

and consists of the following fields, each of which occupy 1
word:
FIELD CODE NOTES

Year 0 - 99
Month 1 - 12 Months are in sequential

order (e.g. 1 = January)

and 00 = midnight
Minute 0 - 59
Second 0 - 59
l/100 0 - 99

5-8
The following diagram shows the organization of the fast trend

sample values.
MONITOR STATUS - The monitor status indicators have a

value of 1 or 0. Each monitor will have three status points
associated with it, Alert, Danger, and not OK. Individual
channel status is not available by reading these addresses.
(See Channel Alarm Statuses in the Modbus Data Addressing
Section.) If any channel of a monitor is in Alert, then the Alert
status of the monitor is true (status bit equals 1).
The monitor status indicators are in the order Alert, Danger,

and not OK and occupy contiguous protocol addresses starting
at address 0. Use the READ INPUT STATUS command
(Function Code 2) to read the monitor statuses. A simple
formula for computing the starting address for any monitors
status value is:
starting address = 3*(slot number - 1)
If a 6 channel monitor is in the rack, its status bits will be

placed in the monitor location corresponding to the first monitor
position. When a monitor position is not filled with a monitor,
then the status for that position may be indeterminate.
5-9
The location of the status bits are shown below.

d Note 1
The starting point can be anywhere and does not have to be
point zero. Starting at any other point will change the
response message data. The total number of status points
is 36.
MONITOR MODE STATUSES - The TDIX stores the Monitor

Mode Status for each monitor as a register value and returns
the value in the following order:
1. Error Codes exist in the monitor

2. An active error exists in the monitor; monitor is not
monitoring
3. Monitor is in Setpoint Adjust Mode
4. Monitor is in Calibration / Program Mode
5. Monitor is in Trip Multiply Mode
6. Monitor has Danger Bypass Switch Active

CHANNEL ALARM STATUSES - The TDIX stores a true/false

value for the Channel Alarm Statuses for each channel in the
following order:
1. Not OK
2. Alert
3. Danger
4. Channel is in Bypass Mode
5. Channel Off
6. Keyphasor Not OK
7. Signal Path Not OK
8. Communication Processor Channel Not OK
The following diagram shows the organization of the Channel

Alarm Statuses.
Use the READ INPUT STATUS command (Function Code 2) to

access the channel alarm status values for the rack.
MONITOR COMMUNICATION STATUSES - The TDIX stores

a true/false value for the Monitor Communication Statuses for
each monitor. A “I”, or true, indicates a communication fault.
When a fault occurs, this indicates that a previously
communicating monitor is no longer communicating with the
TDIX.
5-12
- TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 5 Modbus Protocol
If all previously communicating monitors enter a non-

communicating state, i.e, a loss of power to the rack etc., the
TDIX will fail to respond to any Modbus query with the ONLY
exception being a loopback command (Function 8). Therefore,
a distinction can be made between failure to communicate to a
rack and failure to communicate to the TDIX. If the TDIX
responds to the loopback command but not to any queries for
monitor information, then the TDIX is communicating properly
and the monitor rack has entered a non-communicating state.
d Note
In older revision TDIX’s, prior to Rev K firmware for the CPU
board, when the TDIX failed to communicate with the
monitor, the last valid values were used in responses to
monitor reoister aueries.
5.4 Setting the Real Time Clock

To set the real time clock, write to the real time clock registers
by function 16, Preset Multiple Registers. This feature is only
- allowed if the TDIX host has not set the date and time. Once
the TDIX host has set the date and time, the SDI link can not
be used to set the real time clock.

- TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 6 TDlXconnX
6 TDIXconnX
TDlXconnX is a hardware option to TDIX that allows

additional systems to be connected to the communications
processor. Installation only requires configuring the
TDIXconnX, mounting to the TDIX communication processor,
and wiring the TDlXconnX to the additional systems. These
systems may be BNC 1800, 7200, 9000, older 3300 systems
or systems not manufactured by BNC. No changes are
required to TDIX to accommodate the TDIXconnX, however,
it is only compatible with revision H TDIX and later.
The TDlXconnX is a versatile interface so this manual cannot

describe all possible applications. We will provide you
information that will enable you to engineer a solution for your
system.
6.1 Description
TDlXconnX connects to existing systems and accepts three

types of information: Dynamic, Alarm/OK, and Direct data.
This data appears in parallel to the TDIXconnX. The
Dynamic Alarm/OK Direct
EXISTING MONITOR
TDlXconnX
VIRTUAL MONITOR
TDlXconnX transforms the data so that it appears to the
6-l
TDIX communication processor as a collection of up to
twelve virtual monitors. Each monitor has two channels with
two dynamic, two direct and two alarm outputs.
Dynamic input 1 and 2, direct input 1 and 2 and alarm input 1

and 2 are assigned to virtual monitor 1, dynamic input 3 and
4, direct input 3 and 4 and alarm input 3 and 4 are assigned
to virtual monitor 2 and so on for all inputs. These
assignments cannot be changed. Odd numbered alarms are
alarm 1 (Alert) while the even numbered alarm inputs are
alarm 2 (Danger) in the virtual monitors. Alarm data on one
input, either alert or danger, is associated to both channels of
the virtual monitor.
The direct inputs to TDlXconnX can be configured for several

input ranges. The alarm/status inputs can be configured to
be interpreted as alarms or as channel OK inputs with
defined polarities. The virtual monitor type can be defined as
displacement, seismic or static.
Direct and Alarm data to the TDlXconnX are multiplexed,

processed and stored in the TDlXconnX and presented to the
TDIX as a serial data stream, mimicking a 3300 monitoring
system. Dynamic data is passed to the TDIX in parallel. The
multiplex data is read multiple times to reject noise. The
TDiXconnX collects data for all 24 channels in 400
milliseconds. Requests for data from the TDIX are provided
with the latest data stored in the TDlXconnX memory.
6.2 Data Inputs
6.2.1 Direct Data
The direct values provided to the TDlXconnX generally are

provided from recorder outputs. The TDlXconnX accepts
inputs in the ranges of plus or minus 1 to 5, 0 to 5, 0 to 10, 2
to 10 Volts or 4-20 mA. The direct inputs are supplied to two
connectors, with 12 channels in each connector. The input
range selection is done for each of the two connectors
independently using jumpers. A// of the inputs on one
connector must be of the same type. The equivalent input
circuit for the direct inputs is shown below. Each of the
inputs is a full differential input.

Jumpers connect a 250-ohm input load when 4-20 mA inputs

6.2.2 Alarm/OK Data
The Alarm/OK inputs are typically provided from relay contacts

or from logic outputs from the monitoring system or from the
/ system DCS. When configured as alarms, the TDIX will save
a dynamic waveform when the alarm is actuated.
Zin=l OOK 0
3++ Jumper selections determine if the inputs are interpreted as
alarm or OK inputs. Each of the two connectors is set as
Zcm-1K 0

selections for the polarity sense of the input exist, each
selection affecting six inputs.

62.3 Dynamic Inputs

Dynamic inputs are directed into the TDIX without
any conditioning by TDIXconnX. The range of
voltages is +25 to -25 volts with a maximum of 25
volts peak to peak for the dynamic input. The
equivalent circuit is shown. All of the dynamic
signal input commons are tied together but are
not directly connected to TDIX common.
Jumpers accomplish the virtual monitor type

selection. The selection for monitors from 1 to 12
matches the sampler cards location in the TDIX.
Selection of a displacement monitor type results in data from
the TDIX that includes Direct value, gap volts (between 0 and
-25 volts), 1X amplitude, 1X phase, 2X amplitude, 2X phase
and NotlX. Selection of a seismic monitor type results in
Direct value, IX amplitude, 1X phase, 2X amplitude, 2X

6.3 TDIXconnX Installation

Installing the TDlXconnX involves these steps:
. Planning the TDIX orientation, location and clearance
. Setting TDlXconnX options
l Installing boards in TDIX and attaching TDlXconnX
. Connecting cables between the TDlXconnX and monitor
system
. Connecting cables between the TDIX, power source, and
host computer
l Initializing the TDIX
Many installation steps are the same whether the TDlXconnX

is used or not and so reference will be made to section 2 of
this manual for installation instructions.
6.3.1 Physical Installation requirements

6.3.2 Setting TDlXconnX Options
Remove the TDIXconnX:
Setting of the TDlXconnX options requires
that the TDlXconnX be disconnected from
the TDIX.
Step 1 - Remove Power from the TDIX.
Step 2- Loosen the thumbscrews at the

four comers of the TDlXconnX and pull
gently from one side and then the other
until the TDlXconnX comes free.
Set the Jumper Options:

Each of the groups of jumper options will
be set in turn.
Step 1 - Locate the 12 jumpers

(W25 through W36) that determine
the virtual monitor type for monitor 1
through 12 respectively. -TWEJ-
r STATIC ONLY MCINITOR TYPE
Step 2- Install the jumper in the

DISP position for monitor 1 (W25) if
the transducer type for both channels
of the virtual monitor is an eddy
current probe. Install the jumper in
the SEIS position if the transducer is
an accelerometer or velocity sensor.
Remove the jumper completely if the
transducer is a STATIC monitor. This
type does not have dynamic
information such as a temperature,
pressure or process variable
transducer.

Step 9- Determine if the rack level alarm is going to be used.

If so, follow the decision tree for the rack alarm.
individual alarms will annunciate on the host screen, will make entries
into an alarm list, and will cause the collection of a waveform for all
dynamic points associated with the keyphasor. The rack alarm can only
cause the collection of a waveform for the dynamic points associated
with the keyphasor.

6.3.3 Install Boards in TDIX and Attach TDlXconnX

Prior to installing TDlXconnX the sampler card locations need
to be set in TDIX.
Step 1 - Locate the monitor type jumpers,

W25 through W36. 018RIcaBnMJLIIpw STATIC ONLY YONITOR NPE
sasMlclvPEuuIw
Step 2 - Starting with position 1 (W25)

through position 12, identify each of the
virtual monitors that have either a
displacement or a seismic jumper installed.
Step 3 - Each monitor identified in step 2

should have a sampler card installed in the
corresponding slot in TDIX. See sections
2.3.1 and 2.3.2 for instructions to move
sampler card locations.
Step A After TDIX reassembly, install the

TDlXconnX by aligning the static and
dynamic connectors on the TDIX and the
TDIXconnX, then push the TDlXconnX
straight onto the TDIX. Tighten the four
thumbscrews on the corners.
6.3.4 Attach Cables from Monitor System to TDIX

The TDlXconnX cable options select a connection
construction that minimizes the amount of work required to
attach to the TDIXconnX. Cables with a connector
preassembled on one end and loose wires on the other are
called pigtail cables. They plug directly into the TDlXconnX
and allow using spade or ring lugs fastened to the wires or
using the wire in a screw-compression connection.
Preassembled cables with connectors on both ends are used
for the quickest connection when applicable and compatible
with the pin functions of the TDIXconnX. Special interfaces for
the BNC 1800 Transmitom Backplane arrange the signals so
preassembled cables can be used. Connector kits allow
connecting to existing wires and cables. This reduces the
number of connections by only connecting the wires used. It
also allows individual wires from several locations to be
connected in one connector. Transition connectors are
available to transition from the D-sub connector to screw-
compression connections. These are quickly assembled with
only the required wires and can easily be changed if
necessary.
6-13
The pigtail cables are available with either 15 or 25 wires and
an overall foil and braid shield which is connected to the D-sub
shell. The shell connects to the chassis of the TDIXconnX.
The cables are 15 feet long overall. The cables should be
used when the TDlXconnX and monitor system are within 10
feet of one another. Trimming to make a neat installation,
bending for the radius of the cable and routing the cables out
of the way cause the useable length to be shorter.
Cables preassembled on both ends are used between

TDlXconnX and monitoring systems that have a BNC Data
Manager interface or the BNC 1800 to TDlXconnX interface.
The cables are 10 feet long and have an overall shield of foil
and braid connected to the D-sub connector shells. The 1800
to TDlXconnX interfaces are available for both the 6 and 12
position backplanes. The connection from the interface to the
TDlXconnX uses preassembled cables. Use the
preassembled cables when several backplanes are linked
together to connect to a single TDIXconnX.
Connector kits are available for either 15 or 25 pins. The kits

come with solder terminals, an EMI backshell and a ferrule to
make connection to the cable shield. A pin installation tool is
also provided. The ends of the cables have to be prepared
6-14
and the ferrules property positioned to make good connection

to the EMI backshell.
15 WIRE PREP 25 WIRE PREP
The transition connector is versatile and is available in both 15

and 25 pin versions. These connectors are larger than the D-
sub connector on all sides. The TDlXconnX has just enough
clearance, but some monitors do not have the minimum
clearance to use these connections. The TDlXconnX to 1800
interface cannot use the transition connectors for all locations
888
because of the space required.
Regardless of the connection scheme used, the function of

the pins on the connectors is the same. The tables show the
pin number, function, and color of the wire if the pigtail
construction is used.
6-15
DIRECT INPUT CONNECTOR TABLE
j-6 Superscripts represent groups of inputs that can be connected together using the alternate
jumper location for reduced wiring. Only one of the wires in each group needs to be installed as
a common return if the alternate jumpers are in place.
Any direct input that is not used should be unterminated. This can be done by having the wire
cut off or tied back. Do not connect to common.

6.3.5 Connect Cables between TDIX, Power and

Host Computer
Paragraphs 2.51 and 2.5.3 describe how to connect power
and the host computer to the TDIX. Addition of the
TDlXconnX does not alter this procedure.
6.3.6 Initialize the TDIX with TDlXconnX

Section 2.6 in Section 2 of this manual applies to the TDIX
with the TDIXconnX.
6-21
6.3.7 Configure the TDlXconnX

With the TDlXconnX and the TDIX, the configuration is the
same as if connected to a monitor. If the software is used to
determine configuration, those virtual monitors jumpered as
displacement will respond as a 3300/16 (Dual Vibration
Monitor), the seismic will respond as a 3300/55 (Dual
Velocity Monitor) and the static only will respond as a
3300/70 (Dual Valve Position Monitor). If you are unsure if
the automatic response will work, the best course of action
is to do a “Custom Monitor” configuration. Remember when
doing this that the values returned are the same as the 116,
/55 and /70 monitors. Note that the /I6 monitor assumes
that the gap voltage is within the range of 0 to -24 volts. If
your displacement system has an offset other than that, then
you must use the custom configuration. Remember that the
TDlXconnX uses the direct values from your system to set
the direct value and the inputs from the alarm/OK inputs to
determine the status. All of the other values, such as IX
amplitude and phase, gap voltage, 2X amplitude and phase
and NotlX are generated by the TDIX.
Orbit presentations are always drawn from a monitor pair of

signals. If you want orbits, the two inputs must be assigned
to the same virtual monitor. If two unrelated displacement
signals are input to a virtual monitor, from two transmitters
for example, the orbit presentation will be made but will have
no meaning.
6-22
6.4 SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
6.4.1 General
Several common considerations must be made when
connecting to a TDIXconnX.
CAUTION
B
Exercise caution when working on an active
monitoring systems. High voltages may be present or
become present on relay wiring.
l Dynamic signals are expected to come from buffered

signal outputs. This means they will have a low source
impedance and are isolated from the transducer source.
Nothing that is done to these signal lines will affect the
monitor performance. This is the case when connecting
- to racks with BNC Data Manager interfaces, and BNC
1800 systems.
CAUTION
,L!!I
Do NOT connect directly to transducer systems that
are providing machinery protection. You may lose
protection or cause an accidental trip of the machine.
In some instances, buffered signal outputs are not present.

In these instances the only connection available may be to
transducer signals directly. The transducer source
impedance and TDlXconnX input impedance may cause an
amplitude error which will apply to the TDIXconnX, and to
the monitor system as well. An example is a system that
contains safety barriers. Connecting a TDlXconnX to such
as system will cause unacceptable errors. Connecting the
TDlXconnX to the transducer inputs may alter the load
impedance seen by the transducer. This may adversely
affect the output response of the transducer.
l The dynamic signal is expected to be the same as is

used by the monitor. If the signal is different because it is
integrated, filtered or otherwise modified, the output of the
TDlXconnX system may not compare to the monitor
output. Although not harmful, the usefullness is
6-23
diminished since any alarms will be generated from a
different signal than is being seen by TDIXconnX.
. When connecting systems in different locations together

be aware that ground potentials could exist that may give
unwanted responses from TDIXconnX. TDlXconnX has
provided resistor isolated commons to prevent high
ground loop currents from flowing if a ground difference
potential exists between systems connected to
TDIXconnX. The inputs tolerate some common mode
signal level caused by ground potential differences. See
specifications for details on voltage ranges.
6.4.2 Connecting to BNC 1800 Systems

BNC 1800 systems provide buffered dynamic signals, +2 to
10 Volt recorder outputs direct signals, and individual
channel OK signals. The +2 to 10 Volts range in the
TDlXconnX was made specifically for the 1800. The
recorder output impedance of the 1800 is 10 Kohms.
TDlXconnX corrects the amplitude for the error this
impedance causes.
The 1800 to TDlXconnX interfaces rearranges signals

provided from the 1800 system. The signals then appear on
the correct pins so the connectors are pin for pin
compatible. The interfaces also allow chaining several
1800’s together into one TDIXconnX. The interfaces shift
the apparent location of the 1800 channels to different
locations in the virtual monitor of the TDIXconnX. There are
two versions of the interface, one for six position 1800 racks
and another for 12 position racks. The interface does not
provide for connecting the keyphasor signals. They must be
wired separately.

6.4.3 Connecting to BNC 7200 Systems without

Data Manager
All connections to BNC systems without Data Manager are
made to the terminal blocks on the rear panel of the 7200
rack. The 72350 Dual Voting Thrust Position Monitor,
72470 Dual Path Monitor, and 72850 Dual Plane Vibration
Monitor have buffered outputs on the terminal block. Some
options of the Dual Probe Monitor have buffered outputs.
Some do not. You will need to look at your installation to be -
certain. The remaining monitors generally do not have
6-26
- TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual 6 TDlXconnX
buffered outputs. Most have recorder outputs available on

the rear terminal blocks. Alarm status relays may be rack
level or monitor level. You will need to check your system to
see what alarm wiring will be appropriate.

Manager
BNC 7200 systems with the Data Manager backplane
installed have buffered dynamic signals appearing on a
single dynamic connector on the back of the power supply
input module. The direct and alarm relay inputs are
available identically to 7200 systems without Data Manager.
Dynamic signals are taken from the ‘Dynamic’connection on

the power supply signal module and connected to the
‘Dynamic’input of the TDIXconnX. The Data Manager
dynamic signal conditioning requires power from the
communication processor to operate. Connect the ‘static’
cable from the rack alarm connector of the TDlXconnX to
the Static connection on the back of the 7200 rack. The
table below shows the wiring using an unused -24 Volt
keyphasor power (assumed on keyphasor 4). If all four
keyphasor power supplies are used, then an external -24
Vdc supply can be used in its place.

6.4.5 Connecting to BNC 9000 Systems without

Data Manager
The BNC 9000 series of monitors did not have buffered
signals on the rear panels. Most have resistor isolated pins
on the front panel. Make connection to the transducer
inputs on the monitor for dynamic signals. The recorder
outputs do appear on the rear panel. The relay
configuration will have to be determined for your system.

Manager
The BNC 9000 series with Data Manager interface has
buffered dynamic signals appearing on a single connector
on behind the power supply. All of the power for this
interface is supplied by the 9000 system. Dynamic signals
for the TDlXconnX can be obtained by simply connecting a
25 wire cable between the dynamic input of the TDlXconnX
and the dynamic connector on the 9000 rack. The recorder
signals and the alarm signals are taken from the terminals
on the back of the rack.

A. Allen-Bradley Technical Information

Use this appendix as a guide when interfacing Allen-Bradley
equipment to the Transient Data Interface.
1. Protocol Description
Each message packet contains a source and a destination
address. When operating full duplex with a KF2, set the
Transient Data Interface address to the same address as is set
on the KF2 module. When a message is sent to the Transient
Data Interface, the source address is that of the remote device
initiating the message and the destination address is that of the
KF2 module that receives the message, which is then relayed
to the 3300 rack. See figure below.

KF2 KF2 3300
Hiqhwgy
b
kssoqe Trmsnission
When a reply message is formulated at the 3300 rack and sent

back to the computer, the KF2 module intercepts the message
and inserts its address into the source field of the message.
The Transient Data Interface takes the source address from
the preceding command message and inserts that address in
the destination field of the reply message.

Message Trmissim
Because the 3300 rack is not a computer and is not

programmable, it can execute commands but not initiate them.
DFI protocol is ASCII character based and uses the following

ASCII control characters.
A-l
Appendices TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual -
ABBREVIATION HEXADECIMAL CODE

STX 02
ETX 03
ENQ 05
ACK 06
DLE 10
NAK 15
One or more of the following code characters may be

combined into a protocol “code”:
DLE STX - is a message used to indicate the start of a

message
DLE ETX BCClCRC - is a message used to terminate a

message
DATA OO-OF and ll-FF - are the encoded values in the

message itself. DLE DLE is a code used to encode the value
IO in the message.
DLE ACK - is a response code that indicates that a message

has been successfully received.
DLE NAK - is a response code that indicates that an attempt to

transfer a message has failed.
DLE ENQ - is a message code. It requests the retransmission

of the last received code.
A-2
The following figure shows the format of a message packet:
Application Layer
JCMUISIS]
I I I
DST SRC CMD STS TNS DATA
Network Layer
f
DLE STX DATA DLE ETX BCC
Data Link Layer
As shown above, a message packet starts with a DLE STX and

ends with a DLE ETX BCCICRC. There are data codes
- between the start and end of the message. The response
codes can also occur between a DLE STX and a DLE ETX
BCCKRC. Those response codes, called embedded
responses, are not part of the message packet.
2. Block Check
The block check character (BCC) is a means of checking the
accuracy of each message packet transmission. The character
is the 2’s complement of the 8-bit sum (modulo-256 arithmetic
sum) of all data bytes between the DLE STX and the DLE ETX
BCC and does not include any other message packet codes or
response codes.
Example 1:
If a message contains the data codes 02, 03, 04, 05, 06 and
07, the message will be (in hex):
10 02 020304050607 10 03 E5
A-3
The sum of the data bytes in this message packet is IB hex.
The BCC is the 2’s complement of this sum, or E5 hex. This is
shown in the following binary calculation.
0001 1011 IB hex

1110 0100 l’s complement
+I
1110 0101 2’s complement (E5 hex)
Example 2:
To transmit the data value 10 hex, use the data code DLE
DLE. However, only one of these DLE data bytes is included in
the BCC sum. For example, to transmit the values 02, 03, 04,
05, 00, 10, 06, and 07 hex, use the following message codes:
10 02 020304050010100607 10 03 D5
In this case, the sum of the data bytes is 2B hex because only
one DLE text code is included in the BCC. So the BCC is D5
hex.
-
The BCC algorithm provides a medium level of data security,
because it cannot detect transposition of bytes during
transmission of a packet or detect the insertion or deletion of
data values of zero within a packet.
3. Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC)

Calculate the CRC value of the data bytes and the ETX byte
using the polynomial xl6 + xl5 +x2 + x0. To transmit the data
value of 10 hex, use the data code DLE DLE. However, only
one of these DLE data bytes is included in the CRC value.
Embedded responses are not included in the CRC value.
At the start of a message packet, the transmitter clears a 16-bit

register for the CRC value. As a byte is transmitted, it is
exclusive-ORed (with bit 0 to the right) to the right eight bits of
the register. The register is then shifted to the right eight times
with OS inserted to the left. Each time a 1 is shifted to the right,
the following binary number is exclusive-ORed with the 18bit
register value:
1010000000000001
As each additional byte is transmitted, it is included in the value _

in the register the same way. After the ETX value is included in
the value in the register and is transmitted, the value in the
A-4
TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual Appendices
register is transmitted (right bit first) as the CRC field.
The receiver also calculates the CRC value and compares it to

the received CRC value to verify the accuracy of the data
received.
4. Message Characteristics
Full duplex protocol places the following restrictions on the
messages that are submitted to it for transfer:
1. The minimum size of a valid message is 6 bytes; the

maximum is 250 bytes (not including control codes).
2. As part of the duplicate message detection algorithm, the

receiver checks the second(SRC), third(CMD), fifth(TNS),
and sixth(TNS) bytes of each message. At least one of
these bytes must be different from one message to the
next for the algorithm to recognize a message as distinct
from the previous message. If the algorithm detects a
duplicate message, the receiver returns an ACK with no
response to the command.
5. Protocol Diagrams
The following figures show some events that can occur on the
various interfaces. Time is represented as increasing from the
top of the figure to the bottom. Data bytes are represented by
“xx&‘; corrupted data by “????“.

Retransmission occurs when noise occurs on both sides of the

line. This type of noise destroys the DLE ACK and produces
A-6
invalid characters at the receiver. The result is that the receiver

changes its last response to NAK and the transmitter
retransmits the original message.
6. Protocol Field Descriptions
DST -- destination station of the message

SRC -- source station of the message
CMD -- command code
STS -- status code
TNS -- transaction code (2 bytes)
FNC -- function code
EXT STS -- extended status code (Not implemented)
ADDR -- address of memory location (2 bytes)
SIZE -- number of bytes to be transferred
DATA -- data values being transferred by the message
DST and SRC: The DST (destination) byte contains the

number of the station that is the ultimate destination of the
message. The SRC (source) byte is the number of the station
that originates the message.
CMD and FNC: The CMD (command) and FNC (function) bytes
together define the activity to be performed by the command
message at the destination station. CMD defines the command
type and FNC, if used, defines the specific function under that
command type.
STS and EXT STS: The STS (status) and EXT STS (extended
status) bytes indicate the status of the message transmission.
In command messages, the application program should always
set the STS value to 0. The EXT STS is not implemented in
the Transient Data Interface.
TNS: The TNS (transaction) bytes contain a unique 16-bit

transaction identifier.
ADDR: The ADDR (address) field contains the address of a

memory location which specifies the address where the
command is to begin executing. For example, if the command
is to read data from the Transient Data Interface, ADDR
specifies the address of the first byte of data to be read.
SIZE: The SIZE byte specifies the number of data bytes to be

transferred by a message. This field appears in read
commands, where it specifies the number of data bytes that
the Transient Data Interface must return in its reply message.
The allowed value for SIZE will vary with the type of command.
A-7
Appendices TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual
DATA: The DATA field contains binary data from the Transient
Data Interface.

B. Modbus Technical Information

The Modbus interface complies with EIA standard RS-232C,
interface type D. The communications transactions are carried
out in a half duplex mode. A transaction consists of a master
sending a command and the slave device returning a
response. The commands and responses are communicated
asynchronously via a bit serial protocol. By design, modbus
can support multiple stations with one master and up to 247
responder stations multidropped on a common line. The
Transient Data Interface will implement multidrop with a daisy
chain configuration. The TDIX supports 24 TDIX stations when
using a baud rate of 19.2 K, 48 TDIX stations when using a
baud rate of 9600, etc. Assign each responder a unique fixed
device address in the range 1 to 247 by setting the address in
the Transient Data Interface configuration.
In Transient Data Interface connections, the TDIX will behave

as a slave on the communication link. A separate interfacing
device, called a gateway, will serve as the master on this
connection and usually as a protocol converter between
Modbus protocol and a higher level Data Highway system. This
- document is concerned only with the Modbus communication
link and does not discuss any special features or requirements
of the gateway or the data highway.

1. Message Definition
When the word status is used in the MODBUS context, it
means alarm status or control bit status. This is discrete data,
which usually is represented as a single bit in a 16-bit word.
Likewise, the word coil means a discrete data point usually
representing a control bit in the TDIX. 16 status bits or 16 coils
can be packed into 1 word of memory.
When the word register is used in MODBUS, it represents an

analog data value, which is a 18bit word of memory. Analog
data represents Direct, Current Proportional, and Fast Trend
values in the TDIX.
B-l
2. Frame Format
Each MODBUS transaction consists of the transmission of a
query and response frame. These frame types are all similar
and are subdivided into four fields: station address, function
code, information, and error check.
STATION AC0RESS FUNCTION CODE WORMATION CRC
First LOS!
Order of Tronsnissm
The length of each field is an integral multiple of 8-bit bytes.

The station address field is sent first and the other fields follow
in the order shown.
STATION ADDRESS - The station address field of both the

query and the response frames contains the station address of
the affected responder station. Since there is only one initiator
station, the initiator is not addressed explicitly.
The station address field is one byte long and is defined for the
values 0 to 255, as follows:
0 Signifies Broadcast frame, all stations are

selected. TDIX does not respond to any
broadcast messages.
1 to 247 Selects the corresponding Transient Data

Interface
FUNCTION CODE - The function code field is one byte long.

The TDIX implements the following values:
CODE FUNCTION
2 Read Input Status
3 Read Output Register

4 Read Input Register
6 Preset Single Register
a LoopbackIMaintenance
16 Preset Multiple Registers
17 Report Slave ID
INFORMATION FIELD - The information field contains all

other information necessary to specify a requested function or
B-2
its response.
ERROR CHECK FIELD - The error check field contains no

application information but is appended to the frame to detect
transmission errors between the sending and receiving
stations.
The error check field is cyclic redundancy check (CRC-l 6) and

is 2-bytes long. It’s value is a function of the preceding data in
the frame. The transmitter uses the following method to
calculate the CRC value:
1. Load the 18bit CRC register with FFFF hex (all Is).
2. Exclusive OR the first 8-bit byte of the message with the
low-order byte of the 16-bit CRC register and place teh
result in the CRC register.
3. Shift the CRC register one bit to the right (toward the
LSD) and insert a zero in the MSB.
4. Extract and examine the LSB:
If LSB = 0: repeat Step 3.
If LSB = 1: exclusive OR the CRC register with the
polynomial value A001 hex (1010 0000 0000
0001).
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until 8 shifts have been performed.
When this is done, a complete 8-bit byte will have been
processed.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for the next 8-bit byte of the
message. Continue doing this until all bytes have been
processed.
The final contents of the CRC register is the CRC value. As

each additional byte is transmitted, it is included in the value in
the register the same way. The receiver also calculates the
CRC value and compares it to the received CRC value to verify
the accuracy of the data received.
Example
Slave Function Start Addr Start Addr No. of Points No. of Points CRC CRC Low
Address Code High Byte Low Byte High Byte Low Byte High Byte Byte
01 02 00 00 00 60 78 22
The above example shows a Read Input Status Command (the

byte values are in Hex) that retrieves 36 Monitor Statuses and
60 Monitor Mode Statuses starting at address zero and has a
CRC value of 7822 hex.
B-3
Appendices TDIX Operation and Maintenance Manual __
3. Exception Conditions
If the addressed TDIX receives a query frame without a
communications error and if some condition stops the TDIX
from responding, the interface returns an exception response
containing the appropriate error code to the master.
The high order bit (Hex 80) of the function code field is set to 0
in a query or normal response frame and 1 in an exception
response. And regardless of the function code, the information
field of all exception response frames is one byte long. This
byte contains the exception (EXCPT) code, defined below.
CODE EXCEPTION CONDITION

I
Illegal function. If a poll was issued, this code
indicates no program function preceded it.
Illegal data address in information field.
Illegal data value in information field.
The TDIX implements EXCPT codes 1, 2, and 3.
4. LoopbaWMaintenance - Function Code 8 -
A Diagnostic function code causes the slave to echo the data

regardless of the status of the associated device. The code
also restarts or interrogates the communication option in the
slave without affecting the associated slave device.

3300 Monitor Setpoint Types
The 3300 monitor setpoint types are structured in an eight bit

format. Each bit in the eight bit word has a specified meaning.
The eight bit word is broken down as shown below.

Where:

12 - RPM
13 - PRIME SPIKE
14 + NOT 1X
15 - RPMlMlN
16 - COMPOSITE
NOTE: The NO TYPE setpoint type is used in cases where a

monitor has a differing number of measurements in each
channel. This allows the monitor to return the same number of
values for each channel. An example is the 3300/47,
differential expansion monitor; channel 1 returns the DIRECT
(complimentary input differential expansion) measurement and
probe 1 GAP, channel 2 returns a NO TYPE and probe 2 GAP.
EXAMPLE: A returned value for an UNDER ALERT GAP

setpoint type is 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0, which is hex 42.

D. Modems
1. Modem Compatibility
The TDIX is designed to work with a Hayes@ V-SERIES@
UltraTM SmartmodemTM 9600 or Hayes* V-SERIES* OptimaTM
SmartmodemTM 9600. Operation of the TDIX with other
modems is not guaranteed.
If you require a modem and are unable to order one directly,

contact your Bently Nevada sales representative for
assistance.
2. Physical Connection
When distances beyond 100 feet are required using RS-232,
install a pair of modems in the communications link. Connect
the TDIX to the modem using cable part number 131208.
Connect the cable to the SDIX HOST connector to attach a
modem to the SDIX link and connect the cable to the TDIX
HOST connector to attach a modem to the TDIX
communication link.
3. Communication Settings
Configure communication parameters for 9600 Baud, 8 data
bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit when using a compatible modem
to communicate over the SDIX or TDIX link. Use the TDlnit
program to enable modems for either the SDIX or TDIX links.
Enabling the modem for the TDIX link will automatically set the
correct TDIX link modem parameters. If a modem is to be
used with the SDIX, use the TDlnit program to set the proper
SDIX link modem parameters.
D-l
4. Modem Configuration
Use the following two tables to configure the two modems
when connecting the TDIX to a host computer with modems.
The codes on the first table are for the modem connected to
the host computer (local modem) and the codes in the second
table are for the modem connected to the TDIX (remote
modem). Use 9600 baud when configuring the modem.
g Note
You may need to reconfigure the modem after using the
modem for another application.

E. Field Wiring Diagrams and Notes
The following pages contain information for connecting the Keyphasor Proximitors with or without
external barriers to the TDIX and 3300 or 2201 system monitors.
IA CAUTION
Disconnect all power from the TDIX and Proximitors before making any connections.
Follow all wiring directions and specifications exactly as directed in the field wiring
diagrams and notes. Failure to do so can result in improper operation, loss of operation,
or damage to the TDIX, system monitor, or Proximitors.

3300 Compatibility Guide 10400301
The 3300 system has been enhanced to upgrade the computer/communications interface options.
The computer/communication interface options are called the Serial Data Interface/Dynamic Data
Interface or SDI/DDI and were released in April 1992. The external interfaces for dynamic and
transient data, DDIX and TDIX, were released in Aug 1992 and July 1993 respectively. 3300
components that have been changed to implement these interface options are the System Monitor,
AC and DC Power Supply, rack backplane, and monitor firmware. 3300 systems that consist of
these upgraded components are called the SDVDDI system.
Although the upgraded components have replaced the older components, there will continue to be
occasions when questions on compatibility between old and new components will come up. This
compatibility guide addresses questions created by this enhancement by showing how to:
l Identify the three supported configurations of the 3300 system.
l Choose spare parts for use in the original and SDVDDI system.
l Choose 3300 systems that are compatible with your computer interfaces.
The information in this guide is divided into these two sections:
Section 2, System Identification, lists the three configurations of the 3300 Monitoring System which
are authorized by Bently Nevada Corporation and shows how to identify each one. Identifying your
system will help you make decisions about replacement parts and computer/communications
interfaces.
Section 3, Compatibility, presents guidelines about using spare parts with different configurations of
the 3300 system. It also describes the compatibility between 3300 systems, communication
interfaces, and monitoring and diagnostic software.
The table on the following page shows some definitions and explanations for the part numbers and
abbreviations used in this guide.

3300 Compatibility Guide lo4oo3-01
Bently Nevada supports the three configurations of the 3300 Monitoring System, as shown in the
following table. The configurations are defined by the rack (backplane version), Power Supply,
System Monitor, and firmware installed in individual monitors. These configurations are as follows:
Orininal Svstem
This is the first generation 3300 System. This system may have serial communication capability,
but it predates the internal data interfaces (SDVDDI) and most recent external data interfaces
(SDWDDIX and TDIX). These systems can be upgraded to the Mixed System or SDVDDI
System configuration, depending on your interface requirements. See the System Compatibility
section for more information.
Mixed System
This is the Original System with a System Monitor upgrade to allow use of the new generation
external data interfaces: SDIXIDDIX and TDIX.
SDVDDI System
This is the newest generation of the 3300 System. The SDVDDI System provides enhanced
serial communication capabilities to machinery control systems and direct data interface
capability to a computer operating with Bently Nevada monitoring software.

The following subsections discuss how to determine the configuration of your 3300 System. You
may use the following steps as a guideline to identify your monitoring system.
1. Examine the front panels of the System Monitor and Power Supply and check the Power Input
Module on the back of the rack. Use the information in subsections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 to
determine your system configuration.
2. If there is any question as to the system configuration after completing step 1, use subsection 2.4
to identify the backplane. The backplane determines whether the rack is an SDVDDI System
rack or an Original System rack.
3. Use subsection 2.5 to determine the firmware identitiy on individual 3300 monitors. The firmware
in some early 3300 monitors is not compatible with newer generation data interfaces. Similary,
some new multi-channel monitors are not compatible with older external Communications
Processors. See Section 3 for compatibility information.

After using Section 2, System Identification, to determine the configuration of your 3300 system, use
this section to determine which components will or will not work in your system.
Guidelines for spare parts, parts interchangeability and compatibility with Bently Nevada computer
interfaces are given in Sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 for each of the three supported system configurations.
3.1 Original System

The original system is compatible with all standard Bently Nevada computer/communication interfaces
and monitoring software except SDIX/DDIX and TDIX. To make this system compatible with SDLVDDIX
or TDIX, replace the 3300/01-01 with a 3300/03-01 and use SDVDDI firmware in the monitors.
This system is shown in Section 2. I, Figure 1.

3.4 Additional Compatibility Issues

Monitors
The 3300175 and 3300180 monitors support SDl(X)/DDI(X) and TDIX only. Older
communications processors cannot be used with these monitors. These monitors also do not
support the older 3300/01-02 Serial interface.
Communications Processors
If a TDIX and TDM communications processor are on the same communications chain, and the
TDM firmware is Rev C or earlier, the TDM firmware needs to be upgraded. Contact your Bently
Nevada Corporation representative to order a firmware upgrade kit for your TDM communications
processor.
