DGM200E

Description

The data interface DGM200E is based on proprietary communication hardware from GE Energy Power Conversion (ex. Converteam GmbH). The connection is only available for the systems HPC (“Logidyn D”) and HPCi (P80i) when using the fast system bus DGM200. The DGM200E interface is a prerequisite for using the modules HPCi Lite and HPCi Request.

The following hardware components are required:

• at least one DGM200V module in a HPC/HPCi VME rack or one DGM200P board or a DGM 200-E adapter in/on an HPCi PC (RXi-042, RXi-142, APC 620, APC 810)

• in case of multiple HPC/HPCi racks or HPCi PCs, a DGM200C data concentrator should be installed

• at least one DGM 200-E adapter at the network interface of the ibaPDA computer

• the network interface must support 1000 Mbps and Jumbo Packets/Jumbo Frames.

Mixed operation of DGM200P and DGM 200-E in the ibaPDA computer is possible with some restrictions/limitations.

The DGM200 components have to be obtained exclusively from GE Energy Power Conversion (http://www.gepowerconversion.com).

Available modules

When the DGM200E interface license is released in the dongle, you may configure the following modules in ibaPDA:

• HPCi Lite

  • Access on all data configured on the DGM200 bus by the CCM.

  • Access to data of all time classes of the DGM200 bus

  • max. 1000 analog values + 1000 digital values per module

  • Comfortable data selection via signal browser in the ibaPDA I/O Manager (toc.ini required, created by P80i address book generator)

Note
	One ibaPDA computer supports up to four DGM 200-E channels, provided that there are enough network adapters in the ibaPDA computer. One DGM 200-E channel corresponds to one DGM 200 network. The DGM 200-E device offers two separate channels.

• DGM200E

  • Access to data from the DGM200-E adapter via physical addressing (offset / data type)

  • max. 1000 analog values + 1000 digital values per module

  • Applies to special cases

• DGM200E dig512

  • Access to data from the DGM200-E adapter via physical addressing (offset / data type)

  • max. 32 x 16 = 512 bits per module, no analog values

  • Applies to special cases

A maximum of up to 1024 modules are supported per data interface.

Total number of signals to be measured is only limited by the ibaPDA license and performance of the involved systems.
