IMPACC HARDWARE
INCOM Product Operated Network
Interface (IPONI) Card
The IPONI Card adds communications to
various Cutler-Hammer products, including
the IQ Data, IQ Generator, IQ Data
Plus II, IQ Data Plus II HV, IQ DP-4000,
IQ Analyzer version 1.06 and later, IQ
Transfer, IQ 1000 II, Digitrip MV, IQ Central
Energy Display II (CED II), Assemblies
Electronic Monitor II (AEM II), Central
Monitoring Unit (CMU) and the Breaker
Interface Module (BIM), enabling these
devices to communicate with a master
control unit over an INCOM network.
(Several other devices, such as the IQ
Energy Sentinel, Digitrip MV, Digitrip RMS
trip units, OPTIM trip units, the Addressable
Relay II, and the Universal RTD
Module contain built-in communications
capability and do not require a PONI.) The
PONI can be easily mounted on the back
of these devices and requires no external
power. Selectable communication rate of
1200 or 9600 baud is available.
Also available are the special RS-232 PONI
and the Telephone Modem PONI, which
enable the above mentioned devices to
communicate with a master control unit
through either an RS-232 channel or over
a telephone line. Two application restrictions
must be considered when utilizing
either of these special PONI’s: 1 - they both
operate exclusively at 1200 baud; 2 - they
both operate over a single point-to-point
(non-shared) communication channel.
The functionality is identical to the IPONI
above except for the list of supported
products:
Universal RTD
AF 400
IQ 500
IQ 1000
IQ Analyzer 1.05 and earlier
Computer Operated Network
Interface (CONI) Card
The CONI Card interfaces the information
from IMPACC devices to personal computer
software. It is installed into the expansion
slot of an IBM compatible with an ISA or
ISA/EISA bus.
Master INCOM Network Translator
(MINT) II
The MINT II interfaces the IMPACC
network to a master control unit with an
RS-232 port, such as a personal computer
serial port, a programmable controller
RS-232 “smart card,” building management
system interface card, etc. (Some
software will have to be written in the
master control unit to request and receive
messages. The MINT II protocol is
10-character, ASC II coded hex.) The MINT
II can be used to interface multiple
IMPACC devices to Broadband LAN’s,
telephone modem, or short haul modem.
It can also be used to allow additional
branches of the INCOM data line (five
additional branches per MINT II). The
MINT II can be either table or panel
mounted and requires a 120 VAC, 60 Hz
supply. Selectable communication rate of
1200 or 9600 baud is available. The burden
for the MINT II is 7 VA.
PLC Interface Modules
The NL-582 and NL-583 IMPACC Interface
Communication Modules connect a network
of IMPACC devices directly to a
Cutler-Hammer/Westinghouse 500 Series
Programmable Logic Controller. The
NL-582 module performs control and status
monitoring functions with ADVAN-
TAGE starters and contactors. The NL-583
module can perform control and complete
monitoring functions with ADVANTAGE
starters or any other IMPACC compatible
device. Either module is easily mounted in
the bus unit of the PLC and is equipped
with two LEDs, which indicate: the status
of the module; and when it is transmitting.
Network Gateways/Bridges
The Mod Bus Gateway and Ethernet
Bridge translate INCOM network communications
into either Mod Bus or Ethernet
protocol. The Mod Bus Gateway uses a
register mapping technique to place information
from up to 200 IMPACC meters and
protective relays into Mod Bus registers.
The gateway also supports control features
to allow the customer (Mod Bus
master) to send control commands to
the IMPACC devices. The Ethernet Bridge
provides the ability to bridge all IMPACC
information onto a new or existing
Ethernet network.
