ESEPRO Profibus gateway for Woodward Easygen genset controls and LS-5 controls
ESEPRO is a Profibus gateway specifically designed to interface Woodward's Easygen series genset controls with Profibus-DP networks. It interfaces via the CAN bus with the Woodward controls and is easy to configure using standard Profibus configuration tools like Simatic Manager.
A single ESEPRO added to the CAN network will make all Visualisation Data of connected Woodward CANopen controls available without adding additional load to the CAN bus communication. The Visualisation Data is buffered in the ESEPRO gateway which decouples Profibus’ cyclic process I/O from the CANopen cyclic TXPDO transfers.
A single ESEPRO added to the CAN network will make all Visualisation Data of connected Woodward CANopen controls available without adding additional load to the CAN bus communication. In addition concurrent and fast read and write access to device Parameter IDs is possible utilising parallel CANopen SDO transfers.
The ESEPRO appears as a modular I/O module in the Profibus configuration tool.
The ESEPRO offers three different methods to map data into the PLC's process I/O image to suit different application requirements and programming styles. Visualisation Data of connected Easygen and LS-5 devices can be mapped directly into the PLC's process image. For larger data tables which exceeds the Profibus I/O space, a profile-style indexed mapping similar to the Profidrive standard can be used. Alternatively access to larger data tables via acyclic DP-V1 transfers is also possible. In addition, read and write access to the Easygen’s device Parameter IDs is possible utilising acyclic DP-V1 transfers which are internally translated to CANopen SDO transfers.
A new addition is the legacy device emulation mode for Woodward MFR 2 and GW 4 devices. By employing an ESEPRO and an Easygen-3000XT device, one can effectively emulate and substitute either a MFR 2 or a GW-4 coupled with a GCP-30 or MFR 3. The emulation works transparently and does not require any changes to the original PLC software. The ESEPRO will map data and alarm bits from the Easygen-3000XT into the appropriate Profibus I/O locations. This presents an excellent solution for plant retrofits or upgrades.
Common applications include:
- PLC connection
- Operator panel interfacing
- HMIs
- SCADA integration
- Power station automation
- Gen set control
- Remote control & monitoring
- Data logging
