INTRODUCTION TO THE QUANTUM LX

QUANTUM DESCRIPTION
The Quantum LX control panel currently utilizes two versions of microprocessor hardware, the
Quantum 4 and Q5 boards. The LX portion of
the Quantum name actually refers to the operating system (software), and the operator interface (physical display and keypad). When you
see the name Quantum 4 or Q5, the physical
hardware of the controller is being referred to
(microprocessor), whereas Quantum LX refers
to the software, and how the operator interacts
with the software (through the display/keypad).
As an example, the Quantum 4 and Q5 con-
trollers contain the physical Ethernet and Serial

connections that the user connects to, while the
Quantum LX software determines how those
connections are used. These connections are
known as PROTOCOLS.
The Quantum LX software is based on a Web
Browser format, and has the capability of communication through both Ethernet and Serial
Ethernet protocols.
The following screen is representative of what
the operator will see after the unit has been
powered up. This is called the Home screen. Be
aware that the content of this screen may differ
from situation to situation, based upon the actual
configuration and installed options.
The Operating (or Home) screen
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

The purpose of this manual is provide the necessary information (protocols, data registers, wiring, etc.) to allow the end user to reliably communicate with the Quantum LX via various
communications methods (to be described later)
for the purpose of obtaining and sending data
and/or for compressor control.
The Quantum LX does NOT begin any communications conversations on its own, it only
responds to queries (requests) from external devices.
For Ethernet communications, refer to the sec-
tion entitled Ethernet and Networking. Ethernet

does not require any jumpers to be installed.
For serial communications connections, refer to
the section entitled Quantum Serial Communication for the correct wiring and jumper settings
of RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485. Also, refer to the
drawing of the Quantum 4 Main Board section
to identify wiring configurations for Com-2.
For information on software protocols, refer to
the section entitled Protocol Description.
To access specific data within the Quantum LX,
refer to the Data Tables.

ETHERNET AND NETWORKING

DESCRIPTION
Frick Controls uses Ethernet as the primary
method of connecting one or multiple Quantum LX panels to a common computer network. In the past, this interconnection would
have been done by serial protocol wiring, such
as RS-232/422/485. But with the capabilities of
todays technology, Ethernet is the quickest and
most efficient way of providing this connectivity.
Whereas the old serial communications methods (RS232, etc.) were slow by todays standards
(kilobits per second transmission speed), Ethernet is available in two speeds: 10 Mbps and 100
Mbps.
NOTE: For connection examples, refer to
the section of this manual entitled Quantum LX Local Ethernet Configurations and
Quantum LX Ethernet Network Configurations.
Ethernet is a data and information sharing system. It is a method of connecting one computer
to many others on a common network. This network can consist of both hardwired connections,
and wireless devices, hence the name ETHERNET.
Any Windows or Linux based computer is capable of accessing this network. All that is needed
is either a modem, USB port, or an Ethernet port.
These devices provide the necessary point of
connection for one end (branch) of the connection (a home computer for instance). The other
point that completes the connection is usually
provided by an Internet Service Provider (or ISP).
The Internet Service Provider usually has a very
large network router, or means of bring in many
individual connections. The router then assigns a
discrete and individual address to each connection (much like a street address). This address is
known as an Internet Protocol address (IP). The
IP address consists of a series of 4 to 12 digits,
and is normally transparent to the end user.
For individuals familiar with using the internet,
they are familiar that every time they activate
their web browser (the software that allows your
computer to connect), there is an address bar
that appears near the top of the screen. This address bar is where you would enter the IP address of the computer or network that you would
like to communicate with. To make this simpler,
these numeric IP addresses are also coded to
allow alpha-numeric names to be masked over
them, so that rather than having to enter an address of 216.27.61.137, you can simply enter in
www.jci.com, as an example. Although the actual process is more detailed and complicated than
this basic explanation, the end result is that most
of the work is being done invisibly.
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 7
The following write up describes how to set up

the Quantum LX to do this behind the scenes
work, so that it can communicate both at the
Internet level, and at a local Ethernet level.
CABLING
Each Quantum LX Ethernet connection must be
individually cabled (known as a homerun) direct
from a switch or computer. Unlike RS422/485
communications which allowed for cable daisychaining, Ethernet connections do not allow this.
This type of cabling is designed to handle the
100-Mbps speed needed by Ethernet. Both ends
of each cable must have an RJ-45 connector attached. The RJ-45 connector looks similar to the
RJ-11 connector on the end of a telephone cord
but is slightly larger (and not compatible). You
can buy Cat 5 cables in predetermined lengths
with the connectors already attached (for short
runs), or you can buy the cable in rolls, cut it to
length and install the RJ-45 connectors to the
ends (up to 100 meters per each cable run).
Although Frick Controls recommends the use
of shielded, twisted pair Cat 5 cable, if the cable
is not properly constructed and tested, it can actually be more detrimental to the network than
unshielded cable. As long as all of the cables that
are used have been properly constructed AND
tested, either shielded or unshielded are acceptable. This is mostly due to the excellent (electrical) noise immunity that is inherent with Ethernet componentry.
NOTE: Follow standard networking procedures for the interconnections of all components. For individual cable runs in excess of
300 feet (~100 meters), a Switch/Hub must
be used for each additional run.
Cabling Dos and Donts Frick Controls recommends the following guidelines when installing and using CAT 5 Ethernet cable:
Do:
Run all cables in a star (homerun)

configuration.
Keep all individual cable lengths
under 300 feet. If greater distances
are needed, use a switch/hub every
300 feet.
Ensure that the twists of the wire
pairs within the cable are maintained from end to end.
Make gradual bends in the cable.
Keep each bend radius over one
inch.
Keep all cables tie wrapped neatly.
Try to maintain parallel cable runs
where possible.
Keep the cable as far away as possible from EMI sources (motors,
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 8

transformers, solenoids, lighting,

etc.)
Label the ends of each cable, to facility troubleshooting and identifying in the future.
Test each individual cable run with
an approved CAT5 E cable tester. A
TONING alone test is NOT acceptable.
Use rubber grommets anywhere
that the cable enters through a
hole in a metal panel.
ALWAYS obey local, national and
fire building codes.
Dont:
Dont install cable taut, cables

must always have some play or
slack in them.
Dont over-tighten cable ties.
Dont splice a cable. If a break
occurs, or the length is not long
enough (under 300 feet), replace
the entire run with an intact length.
Dont tie cables to electrical conduits.
Dont strip more than one inch
from the end of each cable when
installing end connectors.
Dont sharply bend or kink the cable.
Dont mix 568A and 568B wiring at
the same installation. 568B is the
most common wiring.
Dont use excessive force when
pulling cable.
RJ-45 CONNECTORS
Ethernet network cables require the use of
industry standard RJ-45 plugs as shown below, for the termination of all cables:
hubs, but a switch generally contains more

intelligence than a hub. Unlike hubs, network switches are capable of inspecting
the data packets as they are received, determining the source and destination device
of a packet, and forwarding that packet appropriately. By delivering messages only to
the connected device that it was intended
for, network switches conserve network
bandwidth and offer generally better performance than hubs.
The Switch takes the signal from each computer/Quantum LX and sends it to all of
the other computers/LX panels in your plant
or office. Switches come in several sizes,
noted by the number of ports available -- a
four-port Switch can connect four computers, an eight-port Switch can connect up to
eight computers and so on. So, if you start
with a four-port Switch but eventually add
more panels, you can buy another Switch
and connect it to the one you already have,
increasing the potential number of panels
on your network.
Typical Switch
Note: If you want to connect one computer to
one Quantum LX, you can avoid the switch and
use a crossover Cat 5 cable. With a crossover
cable, you directly connect one Ethernet device
to the other without a Switch. To connect more
than two you need a Switch.
Refer to the following pictorial to construct a
crossover cable:
Typical RJ-45 Connector

THE HUB
A Hub is a common connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used
to connect segments of a LAN (Local Area
Network). They also contain multiple ports.
When a data packet arrives at one port, it
is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Because of the large number of possible configurations

in an Ethernet network, you most likely will not have any
type of automated installation software. This means that
you will need to manually configure all the options. To
configure these options for the Quantum LX, please refer to the next section in this manual entitled Ethernet
Setup.

ETHERNET SETUP
The following section describes the suggested panel

setup for connecting the Quantum LX panel to an
existing Ethernet connection:
Once all of the cabling has been run and all connections have been made, it is now necessary to setup
the Quantum LX software to recognize and handle
the Ethernet connection.
ACCESSING:
Configuration
Ethernet
DESCRIPTION: This screen is used to allow the user to assign and setup Ethernet and Email communications parameters.
IP DATA
Address Type - The following drop-down menu is
provided:
Fixed (Static) A fixed address is usually

assigned by the network (LAN) administrator, and is normally always the same.
DHCP (Dynamic) Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol permits auto-assignment
of temporary IP addresses for new devices
connecting to the network.
IP Address (Internet Protocol) Four setpoint boxes

are provided here. Every device on an Internet or
Ethernet network must be assigned a unique identifying number, called an IP Address (this is similar in
concept to the Quantum LX panel ID number). The
IP address is how the network identifies each device
that is attached. A typical IP address would look like
this:
216.27.61.137
Gateway Address Four setpoint boxes are provided

here. This is the IP address for the computer or device
onto which your local network is connected to. This
gateway device is how all of the devices attached to

your local network are routed to other gateways and
networks. A router is a Gateway device that routes
packets between different physical networks. A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to
another network.
Subnet Mask - A TCP/IP number used to determine
to which TCP/IP subnet a device belongs. Devices in
the same subnet can be communicated with locally
without going through a router When a TCP/IP device
tries to communicate with another device the bits of
the TCP/IP destination address are "ANDed" with the
subnet mask to determine whether the address is
a local address (broadcastable) or must be reached
through a router. A subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 used
by a computer with a TCP/IP address of 10.10.10.1
would include the addresses 10.10.10.0 through
10.10.10.255 in the local network basically telling the
computer to try a router if it's transmitting to any
other IP address. This is all part of the TCP/IP protocol
Web Server Port This is the port, or channel, that
a web server uses to communicate through. Just as
a computer sends data to a printer through a printer
port, a web server sends and receives data through
the Web Server Port. By default, the port number for

a Web server is 80.
NAMING DATA
NOTE: The IP Address Type must be set to DHCP (Dynamic) for this section to work.
Host Name Enter a distinct name that you wish to
be able to identify this particular compressor by (for
example; Unit1). The Host Name must be fifteen characters or less in length, use no spaces and use only
upper and lower case letters. It is similar in concept
to the function of the Panel ID, and basically allows
the network router to interpret the actual IP address
of a particular unit as this host name. When using a
web browser within the system network, this name
can be entered as the web location that you wish
to visit (instead of having to type in the IP address).
After modifying a Host Name, you will be required
to cycle power. The network router could take up to
fifteen minutes to recognize the change.
Work Group All of the Quantum LX units within
a network may be grouped into different categories.
These categories could be unit locations, or perhaps categorized by unit function. For instance, if
you wanted to group the units by function, and had
10 units, and three of them were Evaporators (located on the roof), then Evap1 could be the name of
a work group. Another three units may be High Stage
compressors, this work group could be named HighStage1, and the remaining four units could be standard compressors, and they could be named Comp1.
So name each unit by these functional Work Group
names. The Work Group name must be fifteen characters or less in length, and can use numerals and
upper and lower case letters. When using the network neighborhood feature of Windows Explorer,
by looking at your Network Neighborhood, you would
see the name of the Work Group, and within that
work group you would see the individual Host Names
of each unit within that work group. After modifying
a Work Group name, you will be required to cycle
power. The network router could take up to fifteen
minutes to recognize the change.
Server String This is a comment area that can be
used in conjunction with the Host Name. For example, if the Host Name is Booster1, you could set the
Server String to print something like DockBooster, or
some other additional information about the unit. The
Server String has no control function; it is strictly an
informational area.
E-MAIL DATA
The purpose of the E-Mail data feature is to allow the
controller to send a Warning or Shutdown message
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 11
to defined listing of recipients.

Email Notification On Warning Or Shutdown For the
E-mail notification feature to work, it must be enabled (it is disabled as a default). The following dropdown menu is provided:
Disabled
Enabled
Local Email Address - Use this setpoint box to enter

a valid E-mail address that has been assigned to the
internet account.
Alias Name For Local Email Address Enter here a
custom name to identify more clearly the local Email
address. When a message is sent to all recipients,
this is the name that will appear in the Email FROM
column.
Subject - Enter a custom subject that you would like
to appear when a message failure is sent. When a
message is sent to all recipients, this is the wording
that will appear in the Email SUBJECT column.
SMTP Server Name OR IP Address - SMTP stands
for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. SMTP servers
handle outgoing email, and accept email from other domains. When you set up an email client, you
must specify an outgoing server (sometimes called
an SMTP server). Often, this server is designated in
the form of smtp.domain.com. But this can vary, so
be sure to check with your email service provider or
LAN administrator to find out their outgoing server.
SMTP Server Port Number - This value is in almost
all cases going to be 25. This should be set by the
network or LAN administrator.
Comma-Delimited List Of Email Recipients - This is
simply the list of the Email addresses that you would
like to have any messages sent to. Separate each email address with a comma.
PROTOCOLS

SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS DESCRIPTION

RS-232 DESCRIPTION
Almost all laptop and desktop computers have
at least one RS-232 serial communications
port available. It was initially developed for the
emerging computer industry in the 1960s. Originally, it was a method of sending data from a
mini or main frame computer, to devices such as
printers, punch card readers, teletypes, magnetic
tape units and modems. In those early days, the
maximum speed at which RS-232 was capable
of transmitting (about 9600 bits per second),
was quite satisfactory, as most of the receiving
devices were mechanical in nature (except for
modems), and barely able to keep up with these
speeds.
RS-232 uses single ended TX (transmit data) and
RX (receive data). This means a common ground
wire is shared between TX and RX, so only 3
wires are needed for a data only serial channel:
TX, RX, and GND.
Disadvantages of single ended signaling is that
it is more susceptible to noise than differential
signaling (RS-422/485), effective cable distances
are shorter (typically about 50 Ft. total, due to
low noise immunity) and data rates are slower.
Additionally, there is the limitation that only two
devices can communicate together (master and
slave).
RS-422/RS-485 DESCRIPTION
When serial communications started moving
into the industrial environment, it was quickly
noted that because of the high electrical noise
potential from electric motors, valves, solenoids,

fluorescent lighting, etc., that the noise immunity
characteristics of RS-232 protocol was grossly
lacking. Additionally, the distances between the
communicating equipment on the factory floor
was much greater than that within the typical office environment. For these reasons, RS-422 and
RS-485 was developed.
RS-422 is a full duplex communications

hardware protocol. This means that it data
can be sent and received simultaneously.
Frick Controls uses a 4-wire system for
RS-422 (two transmit wires and two receive
wires). Advantages of RS-422 over RS-232
is that up to 30 Quantum controllers may
be simultaneously connected using a daisychain wiring scheme (to be explained later),
and that the distances involved can be much
greater (typically up to 2000 ft. for the total cable run), much greater noise immunity
than RS-232.
RS-485 is a half duplex bus. This means that

it can only send data, or receive data at any
given time. It cannot do both at the same
time. Frick Controls uses a 2-wire system
for RS-485 one positive transmit/receive
wire and one negative transmit/receive
wire). Up to 30 Quantum controllers may
be simultaneously connected up to a total
distance of 2000 ft. using a daisy-chain wiring scheme (to be explained later). One advantage to using RS-485 as opposed to RS422 is that only a single twisted pair cable
need to be run to all devices (while RS-422
requires a double twisted pair cable), much
greater noise immunity than RS-232.

SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS SETUP

After the serial communications wiring has been connected, and jumpers correctly set, the LX software needs
to be setup to match that of the device(s) that it is to
ACCESSING:
Configuration
communicate with. The following screen is where this information can be found:
Communication
DESCRIPTION: The purpose of this screen is to allow the user to assign and setup serial communications parameters.
NOTE: This screen has no affect on Ethernet communications.
The following setpoints are provided:
Compressor ID - A number that is used by an external communications application, to converse to individual compressors. On interconnected systems, this
number must be unique. Valid values are from 1 99.
Comm1 - (Setup parameter definitions for Com-1
and Com-2 are identical) Communications related information for the communications ports:
Status - Shows the current communications
status of the port. The possible messages are:
Off - No communications are currently

taking place. NOTE: A delay of 15 seconds or more of inactive communications (time between valid responses)
will cause this message to display.
Active - Valid communications are actively occurring.
Failed - An invalid command was received by the port. This could be due
to a bad checksum value, a wiring issue, or hardware problem at either the
transmitting (host) or receiving (Quantum LX) end.

Baud Rate - The baud rate defines the speed at
which external communications can occur. The
higher the baud rate, the faster the communications. It is best to start out using a lower baud
rate, and increasing the value only after verifying that communications errors do not occur. If
errors start to occur, drop the baud rate back
down. A pull down menu is provided to select
from the following:
1200
2400
4800
9600
19200
38400
57600
115200
Data Bits - Determines the number of bits in a

transmitted data package. A pull down menu is
provided to select from the following:
7
8

Stop Bits - A bit(s) which signals the end of a
unit of transmission on a serial line. A pull down
menu is provided to select from the following:
1
2
Parity - In communications, parity checking refers to the use of parity bits to check that data
has been transmitted accurately. The parity bit is
added to every data unit (typically seven or eight
data bits) that are transmitted. The parity bit for
each unit is set so that all bytes have either an
odd number or an even number of set bits. Parity checking is the most basic form of error detection in communications. A pull down menu is
provided to select from the following:
None
Even
Odd
Protocol - A protocol is the special set of rules

that each end of a communications connection
use when they communicate. A pull down menu
is provided to select from the following Frick
recognized protocols:
None
Frick
ModBus ASCII
ModBus RTU
AB DF1 Full Duplex
AB DF1 Half Duplex
DBS Motor Starter
Vyper
Map File - Because the addressing scheme between

the Quantum version 5.0x and earlier software and
the Quantum LX version 6.0x and later software is
not the same, this file was created. The map file is a
conversion utility that can be used to allow a communications application that was previously written
by the user under the Quantum version 5.0x and
earlier to function properly with the Quantum LX by
redirecting the old addresses to the new addresses
(see the section entitled Using the MAP file for additional information). A pull down menu is provided
to select from the following:
No - Do not use map file. The user is either

not going to be using external communications, or they will be writing the communication application based upon Quantum
LX addresses.
Yes - The user has an application that was

previously written for the Quantum version 5.0x or earlier, and they want to utilize
the same code for the Quantum LX.
I/O Comms - A status indicator is provided to show

the current state of the internal communications of
the I/O boards. The possible displayed states are:
Off - Loss of or intermittent communica-
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

tions failures to the internal Quantum LX

I/O boards.
Active - Indicates that normal I/O communications are occurring.
Failed - Loss of communications, a shutdown message will be generated.
Redetect IO Comms - Select this key to detect all

connected Analog and Digital boards. If a board has
been removed, a communication error shutdown will
be issued until this key is selected. Reference the
About screen to view what has been detected.
Two keys are located at the bottom right hand side of the
screen. The following describes there function:
Download MapFile.txt from Quantum LX With
a USB memory stick installed on the LX, pressing this
key will cause the MapFile.txt file to be downloaded
from the Quantum LX into the USB memory.
Upload MapFile.txt to Quantum LX After the
user has modified the MapFile.txt file to suit their
needs, pressing this key will cause the file to be uploaded from the USB memory back into the Quantum LX.
USING THE MAP FILE
The MAP file is simply a text file (map.txt), which can
be downloaded from the Quantum panel. The file
can be used in its original format, which contains a
limited number of addresses, or may be modified by
the user, to incorporate additional addresses.
Downloading The Map File From The Quantum
LX Through a Web Browser:
To download the map file from the Quantum
LX controller, click the Download button. A new
box will appear with a link labeled MapFile.txt.
Right click on the link, and select Save Link Target As from the menu. The web browser will
then present a dialog box allowing the user select a location on their computer for the map file
to be stored. (NOTE: This operation is not intended to be performed from the Operator Interface Panel. Instead, a desktop computer should
be used to access the Evaporator controller via
a web browser).
Downloading the MAP File From the Panel Using a
USB Memory Stick:
Two keys are located at the bottom right side of
the screen. The following describes there function:

DESCRIPTION
The use of serial communication protocols permits data transmission between devices. Protocol determines how contact is established and
how the query (question) and response (answer)
takes place. The information in a message command requires:
6.
The identity of the intended receiver (ID

#)
What the receiver is to do (read or
write to a setpoint, etc.)
Data needed to perform an action (the
value of a setpoint to be changed)
A means of checking for errors (checksum).
When using any of the communications ports,

check what communication protocol has been
selected from the Communications screen. The
baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity and connection type of all comm. ports, as well as the
panel ID number are also changed from this
screen, and should coincide with the setup of
the other device.
Note: The data communication protocols are continuously being expanded and
improved. Therefore, you should consult
Frick Controls for the exact details on your
particular unit(s) before developing system
software to interface with the panel.

4.
Decide which Quantum protocol you can

communicate with and want to use.
Setup your devices communication port
with the proper parameters and select a
baud rate.
Next, setup the Quantum LX for the desired communication protocol. Select the
protocol from the Communications screen.
Set the baud rate of the Comm Port to coincide with the setup of your devices com-
If you are communicating to more

than one panel, then you will not
be able to use RS-232. You can
however, convert RS-232 to either
RS-422 or RS-485 with an adapter
card. Reference the Converting
an RS-232 Serial Port to RS-422
or RS-485 section for information
about an adapter card.
Refer to the drawing of the Quantum LX Main Board in this manual to identify wiring and jumper
locations for the Comm Ports.
Refer to the Main Board Communications section in this manual for
the correct jumpering of RS-232
(Quantum 4), RS-422, or RS-485.
Check to see if the status of the

Comm Port on the Communications screen is showing ACTIVE or
OFF.
ACTIVE is shown only when the
Quantum LX understands it is
receiving a properly composed
message.
Check that the RX I/O communication activity lamp on the Quantum LX Main Processor Board is
blinking as it receives the instruction from your device.
A steady lit RX LED or one that
isnt lighting, are signs of improper
wiring.
If the RX LED is properly blinking,
then check if the TX LED is blinking
in response.
If the TX is not blinking then check
the communication protocol setup
at the panel, the panels ID and the
Comm Port baud rate setting.
If the TX is blinking, then check
that the Comm Port communication jumpers are correct.
Note: A useful tool for troubleshooting is Windows HyperTerminal. Refer to the HyperTerminal
Setup section in this manual for more information.

If you properly receive data and need to communicate to more than one panel, then setup
and wire to another panel. Reference the wiring diagram drawings in the back of this manual.
Send a single command to read data from this
Quantum LX using its ID and troubleshoot as
above, if necessary. To prevent noise feedback
which is possible when communicating over a
long distance, only the last panel should have the
termination jumpers installed.
FRICK PROTOCOL
The following is a complete list of available Frick Protocol # commands:

COMMAND CODE and DESCRIPTION
I
= Returns compressor status (I)nformation
= Compressor sta(R)t control
= Compressor (S)top control
= Return full load (A)mps information
= Slide (V)alve/Slide stop control
MC
= Change (M)ode of (C)ompressor
MV = Change (M)ode of Slide (V)alve
DESCRIPTION
All commands for Frick protocols must
be in ASCII to be recognized (see the Conversion Chart For Decimal / Hexadecimal
/ ASCII, located later in this manual). The
commands can be in upper or lower case
letters. A compressor with an ID code of
[00] is considered disabled. ID codes from
[01] through [99] are valid and recognized
by the Quantum.
FRICK # PROTOCOL SPECIFICATIONS
Frick # protocol consists of commands that
are available for most other existing models of Frick compressor control panels. The
Frick # protocol does not utilize a checksum.
It is better to use Frick Quantum ($) protocol when only communicating to Quantum 4A or Quantum LX panels.
When there is more than one panel, a Quantum LX can be wired from its communications ports to another panels ports, or can
be wired to Port 1 of a RWB, RDB, RXB or
RXF Micro Plus panel.

All data is returned as integer values. If decimal positions

are assumed, then divide the data by the proper multiple
of 10 to get the actual value.
Temperature data, except for Suction Temperature, is
returned in the current temperature units as 3 characters with no decimal position (i.e. 032 would represent
32 degrees Fahrenheit if the panel temperature units are
in Fahrenheit, or it would represent 32 degrees Celsius, if
the panel temperature units are in Celsius). Suction Temperature is returned as 4 characters with a + or as the
leading character (i.e. 010 would represent 10 degree).
Pressure data is usually returned in the current pressure
units. However, the Filter differential reading is always returned in PSIA. When in PSIG or in PSIA, the pressure
data is returned as 3 characters with no decimal position.
However; in order to show the full transducer range, the
#IDPS command returns 4 characters with one decimal
position assumed. The #IDI, and #IDPA commands return
3 characters that assume one decimal position; therefore,
99.9 is the highest value that can be returned. When in
PSIG, suction pressure is returned in PSIA. When in Bar
and BarA, the pressure data is returned as 4 characters
with two decimal positions assumed. When in KpaA, the
pressure data is returned as 4 characters with no decimal
position.

QUANTUM $ PROTOCOL SPECIFICATIONS

Quantum ($) protocol commands are used by both
the Quantum and the Quantum LX. This protocol has been modified slightly for the LX, in that the
D command has been eliminated, and the addressing structure has changed. Any previously configured
Quantum LX protocol applications that had been
written for Quantum panels, will still work for the
LX, by using the Map File on the Communications
Screen.
Unless otherwise shown, 9 characters are returned
from the Quantum for a data value. The data value
includes two decimal fields and the first character
position is either; - if the value is negative, or it is
+ if the value is positive. For example, if the datas
value is 25.5; then the value +00002550 is sent. All
temperatures are in degree C and all pressures are
in PSIA. A mode such as Slide Valve mode is returned as an integer value that represents the mode
that it is in. For example, a +00000000 is sent if it
is in manual, or a +00000100 is sent if it is in automatic, or a +00000200 is sent if it is in remote.
The value zero +00000000 is used to represent an
OFF status and a DISABLED option. The value one
+00000100, which is received as a 1, is used to represent an ON status and an ENABLED option. Setpoints are only changed if the value sent is within the
acceptable range. Reference the Frick Quantum
Control Panel Maintenance publication S90.020-M for
the setpoints default settings and ranges. The checksum is the 2 byte hexadecimal sum of each character
within the command or returned answer excluding
the command type identifier, $. If the commands
checksum is replaced with ??, the Quantum returns
a response without using checksum error checking
on the received command (refer to the Data Packet
section for more information). If the Quantum detects a checksum error, a N (Not Acknowledged), the
Compressor ID code, 02, Carriage return, and Linefeed are returned.
This document will demonstrate how to communicate to the Quantum panel using the tables that
appear on the following pages.
Data Packet
If you were interested in viewing the information that
is contained in any of the accessible Quantum addresses, you would want to refer to the table entitled
RETURN DATA VALUE FROM TABLE $IDT1 table later
in this section.
The quickest way to demonstrate this protocol is
through Hyperterminal (see the section entitled Hyperterminal later in this manual). After setting up Hyperterminal and ensuring that all wiring and jumper
configurations are correct, type a $ symbol. This is
the character that will alert all of the Quantum
panels on the communications line that data is on its
way. Following the $ symbol, type the ID code of the
Quantum that you wish to query (for instance 01 for
the first Quantum). After the ID number, type a T1.

The protocol code in the Quantum recognizes this
portion of the data packet as a request for the data
from a memory location (address).
Up to now you have typed the following information:
$01T1. Now you to need specify the address(s) that
you wish to query. Up to sixteen addresses may simultaneously be requested. The format for this entry
must be in the form of four digits, so if you want
to query the Frick address for Suction Pressure (address 2002), simply enter the value 2002. Your command line should now look like this: $01T12002. If
you would like to view additional addresses, simply
continue to append the address numbers to this command (up to sixteen total). For this example, we will
only use the one address (2002 for Suction Pressure).
The next thing that must be done is to enter a checksum value. You may elect to type in a ?? as a wildcard if you do not have the time to figure the correct
checksum, however, the information that is returned
may or may not always be reliable. The checksum will
ensure reliability.
To arrive at the checksum value for the command you
have just typed, you will need to convert each ASCII
digit into hexadecimal (do not include the $ symbol).
For this example, you will need to take the first digit
0, and referring to the Conversion Chart at the end
of this section, look down the ASCII column until you
find 0. You will notice that the Hexadecimal equivalent for ASCII 0 is 30 hex. Repeat the process of
looking up each digit in the ASCII column, and finding
its equivalent in the Hexadecimal column, and write
each value down. When all eight (minimum) digits
(01T12002) have been converted to hexadecimal, you
will need to add the eight values together. Remember, the values are in hexadecimal format, not decimal. If you are not familiar with hexadecimal math,
you may wish to utilize the calculator that comes with
Microsoft Windows. Look at the following chart:
ASCII Value of Data
Packet
0
1

0
2
Hex Total
Hexadecimal
Equivalent
30
31
54
31
32
30
30
32
1AA
The answer that is arrived at from the previous chart

is 1A8.
NOTE: For any calculation that results in an answer of more than two digits, use only the right
most two digits, and disregard all digits to the
left.

This will become the checksum for the data packet,
and is appended to the end of the data that has so far
been typed in.
The result should look like this:
$01T12002A8
Press the [Enter] key. You should see an immediate
response. The format of this response should resemble something (but not necessarily exactly) like:
A01+00006166B6
Referring to the RETURN DATA VALUE FROM TABLE
$IDT1 table on the next page, we find that the first
line of the response, A01, indicates that an Acknowledgement (A) was received from device 01 (01). This
is followed by +00006166 (Suction Pressure). The
plus (+) symbol indicates a positive value, followed
by 00006166. Since there are two decimal positions
assumed, 0006166 equals 61.66 PSIA. Using the +/symbols as a delimiter in the above example, each
section of 8 digits can be interpreted as the actual
value being returned from each of the address queries. The B6 value at the very end of the response
is the checksum value that the Quantum returned,
not actual data.

SECTION 3
QUANTUM LX ALLEN-BRADLEY COMMUNICATION
QUANTUM LX ALLEN-BRADLEY COMMUNICATION
This section contains programming examples for
reading data from and writing data to the Frick Quantum control panel from an Allen Bradley (AB) SLC500
or PLC5 processor. Allen Bradley (AB) RSLogix500
programming software has been used for the following examples, however, these examples can also be
used for the AB RSLogix5 software.
Overview Of Half And Full Duplex Theory
To provide for the reading and writing of data
to Quantum LX panels using Allen-Bradley
communication, the Quantum LX has an AllenBradley DF1 communication driver that recognizes either half or full duplex SLC 500 protected
typed logical read and write commands (either
half or full duplex must be selected). Half-duplex
simply means that data can only be sent in one
direction at a time (the concept of how a walkie-talkie works). Using full-duplex, data can be
sent and received simultaneously (the concept of
how a telephone works). This is a Master / Slave
multi-drop communication method.
The Quantum LX talks Allen-Bradley SLC protocol and is programmed to resemble an AllenBradley SLC500 slave station. The customers
PLC or DCS must be setup to initiate the reading and writing of data to a Quantum LX. The
Quantum LX does not initiate any communications. The panel ID number is used as its station address and the target node. With the AB
PLC, the MSG (Message) instruction is used to
send read and write requests. A DCS (Distributed
Control System) will use a SLC 500 DF1 protocol
driver to send protected typed logical read with
3 address fields and protected typed logical write
requests with 3 address fields to a Quantum
LX. Fifty (50) data elements can be read with one
read.
Setpoints are changed by sending a write command to one element. Changing a setpoint
causes the Quantum LX to save the new setpoint to Flash memory (non-volatile memory).
Be careful not to continuously request a setpoint change. It is to be expected that communications may slow down during the process of writing setpoints or clearing alarms.
Both of these processes involve writing to either EEPROM or Flash Memory and does take
some time. If communication requests are
being sent faster than once every couple of

seconds, there will be temporary slowdowns
during these processes.
Additionally, keeping the Quantum LX busy
writing to Flash memory will interfere with the
communications to its I/O Boards. A communication failure to an I/O board will cause the compressor to shutdown. Control commands such
as starting the compressor are also sent with a
write command. For more detail and a list of the
data, reference the Quantum LX Data Table
section. For details about the actual protocol,
reference the AB publication 1770-6.5.16 DF1
Protocol and Command Set Reference Manual.
Because overrun can occur, the baud rate and
commands should be setup to produce the most
desired throughput. The master station should
have the Stop Bit and Parity set to match the
Quantum LX, Duplicate Detect disabled, and
Error Detect set for BCC or CRC.
When communication is between either your
programming software and a Quantum LX or
an Allen-Bradley PLC and a Quantum LX on
a multi-drop link, the devices depend on a DF1
Master to give each of them polling permission
to transmit in a timely manner. As the number
of Quantum LX slaves increase on the link, the
time between when each panel is polled also
increases. This increase in time may become
larger if you are using low baud rates. As these
time periods grow, the timeouts such as the
message timeout, poll timeout and reply timeout
may need to be changed to avoid loss of communication.
ACK Timeout - The amount of time in 20 milliseconds increments that you want the processor
to wait for an acknowledgment to the message
it has sent before the processor retries the message or the message errors out.
Reply Message Wait Time - Define the amount
of time in 20 millisecond increments that the
master station will wait after receiving an ACK
(to a master-initiate message) before polling the
remote station for a reply. Choose a time that
is, at minimum, equal to the longest time that a
remote station needs to format a reply packet.
Some remote stations can format reply packets
faster than others.
Message Timeout - Defines the amount of time
in seconds that the message will wait for a reply.
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 36

If this time elapses without a reply, the error bit

is set, indicating that the instruction timed out.
A timeout of 0 seconds means that there is no
timer and the message will wait indefinitely for a
reply. Valid range 0-255 seconds.
Note: Make sure the Allen-Bradley PLC and the
programming software is the most recent software revision. Some revisions have been made
that do not allow the SLC Typed Logical Read/
Write Message Command.

Data passed to and from the Quantum are integer
values with one decimal field assumed unless shown
otherwise or the command is sent to select two decimal fields. For example, if the datas value is 25.5 then
the value 255 is sent. All temperatures are in degree
C and all pressures are in PSIA unless the command
is sent to select the units of the panel. A mode such
as Slide Valve mode is sent as an integer value that
represents the mode it is in. For example, a 0 is sent
if it is in manual, or a 10 is sent if it is in automatic, or
a 20 is sent if it is in Remote Communications.

The value zero (0) is used to represent an OFF status

and a DISABLED option. The value one (1), which is
received as a 10, is used to represent an ON status
and an ENABLED option. Only data values that are
designated as setpoints are modifiable. Read Only is
used to help identify what data is not modifiable. The
setpoint range is checked to see if it is an allowed
setting. If it is not allowed, the setting is not changed.
Reference the Quantum Data Tables in this manual
for the address listing and description of data.
A command has been provided that selects whether
data to and from the Quantum will be returned in
the units that are the default (pressure in PSIA and
temperature in Degree C) or in the units that are selected to display at the panel.
EtherNet/IP
Frick Controls supports the use of EtherNet/IP (as
described on the ab.com website, under the EtherNet/IP heading) with LX software 6.06 and later. Address mapping follows the Allen-Bradley N: format,
as shown in the Data Tables under the heading of AB
Address. Although this protocol is basically self-configuring, if you do have additional questions, please
contact Frick Controls.

SECTION 4
MODBUS PROTOCOL
MODBUS Protocol
General Description
MODBUS Protocol is a messaging structure developed by Modicon in 1979, used to establish
master-slave/client-server communication between intelligent devices. It is a standard, truly
open and the most widely used network protocol
in the industrial manufacturing environment. The
MODBUS protocol provides an industry standard method that MODBUS devices use for
parsing messages.
Since MODBUS protocol is a messaging structure, it is independent of the underlying physical
layer. It is traditionally implemented using RS232, RS-422, or RS-485 communications hardware. With the Quantum LX, MODBUS TCP
can also be utilized as it applies to Ethernet networks.
The Quantum controller is setup to communicate on standard MODBUS networks using
either ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange), RTU or TCP/IP.
The Quantum provides the capability to interface with other devices that support serial data
communications using the MODBUS protocol.
This is a Master / Slave multi-drop communication method whereby the Quantum is setup to
be a MODBUS Slave. The customers PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or DCS (Data Communications System, such as a desktop or laptop
computer) must be setup as a MODBUS Master.
The Master initiates the reading and writing of
data (queries) to a Quantum. The Quantum
does not generate its own data, it will only reply
to a request by the Master.
The Quantum ID number is used as the MODBUS Slave address (for ASCII and RTU). The
Master uses Function Code 3 (Read Holding
Registers) to send a request to read data from
the Quantum. The Master uses Function Code
6 (Load Register) to request to change a setpoint or to send a command such as starting the
compressor. Up to one hundred and twenty-five
(125) data elements can be read with one read
request.
The address references are numbered relative to the Frick addresses in the Quantum
Data Table (see MODBUS Addressing Note in the
Quantum Data Table section of this manual for
additional information). The Quantum only accepts one value with a Load Register request.
Changing a setpoint causes the Quantum to

save the new setpoint to nonvolatile memory.
Be careful not to continuously request a setpoint
change. Keeping the Quantum busy writing to
memory will interfere with the Quantum communicating to its I/O boards. A communication
failure to an I/O board will cause the compressor to shutdown. For more detail and a list of
the data, reference the Quantum Data Table
section of this manual. For details about the actual protocol, reference the Modicon website at
http://www.modbus.com.
MODBUS TCP/IP (Ethernet)

TCP/IP is the common transport protocol of the
Internet and is actually a set of layered protocols, providing a reliable data transport highway
between Quantum LX panels and an Ethernet
network. Ethernet has become the standard for
factory networking, replacing many of the databus systems used in the past.
MODBUS TCP/IP simply takes the MODBUS
instruction set and transparently wraps TCP/
IP around it. Unlike MODBUS ASCII and RTU,
there no parameters that need to be set (such as
baud rate, data bits, etc.).
NOTE: When using Modicon Setup Software, ensure that:
Head number = Rack Position (position

of Ethernet card in its rack)
Socket # = 502
Frick Controls utilizes function codes 3 (Read),

6 (Write) and 16 (Multiple Write) of the TCP/IP
protocol. Use port 502 for Modbus TCP/IP communications. The value used for the Modbus ID
must be greater than zero.

MODBUS ASCII (Serial Communications)

In the ASCII Transmission Mode (American Standard Code for Information Interchange), each
character byte in a message is sent as 2 ASCII
characters. This mode allows time intervals of
up to a second between characters during transmission without generating errors. Some particulars about MODBUS ASCII:
The device address field of the message

frame contains two characters (16 bits).
The function code field of the message
frame will contain two characters (16
bits).
Word size is selectable.
Error checking is accomplished using
LRC (Longitudinal Redundancy Check).
Hyperterminal can be used to test communications.
MODBUS RTU (Serial Communications)

In RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) Mode, each 8-bit
message byte contains two 4-bit hexadecimal
characters, and the message is transmitted in a
continuous stream. The greater effective char-
acter density increases throughput over ASCII

mode at the same baud rate. Some particulars
about MODBUS RTU:
The device address field of the message

frame contains 8 binary bits.
The function code field of the message
frame will contain 8 binary bits
Word size is selectable.
Error checking is accomplished using
CRC (Cyclical Redundancy Check).
Hyperterminal cannot be used to test
communications.
Serial Port Configuration Of The Master

7 or 8 Bits per Character (Data Bits)
Odd, Even or No Parity
1 or 2 Stop Bits
No Handshake
Data Packet
The MODBUS protocol establishes the format
for the Master's query by creating a message
(data packet) as follows:
Assign the device address (Quantum

panel ID #). The address field of a message frame contains two characters for
ASCII, or 8 bits for RTU. Valid Quantum device addresses are in the range
of 01 99 decimal. A master addresses
a Quantum by placing the Quantum
address in the address field of the message. When the Quantum sends its
response, it places its own address in
this address field of the response to let
the Master know which Quantum is
responding.
An 8-bit function code defining the requested action (Query):
Function Code 3 - to read holding registers (sends a request to read data from
the Quantum).
Function Code 6 to load a register (to
request to change a setpoint or to send
a command such as starting the compressor), or a function code 16 (RTU
only) to load multiple registers.
Any data to be sent (Response). The
data field is constructed using sets of
two hexadecimal digits, in the range of
00 to FF hexadecimal. These are to be
made from a pair of ASCII characters
(ASCII), or one 8-bit for RTU. The data
field of messages sent from a Master to
the Quantum devices contains additional information which the Quantum
must use to take the action defined
by the function code. This can include
items like discrete and register addresses, the quantity of items to be handled,
and the count of actual data bytes in the
field. If no error occurs, the data field
of a response from a Quantum to a
Master contains the data requested. If
an error occurs, the field contains an
exception code that the Master application can use to determine the next action to be taken.
An error-checking field.
The Query
The function code in the query tells the addressed Quantum what kind of action to perform. The data bytes contain any additional information that the Quantum will need to perform
the function. For example, function code 03 will
query the Quantum to read holding registers
and respond with their contents. The data field
must contain the information telling the Quantum which register to start at and how many
registers to read. The error check field provides a
method for the Quantum to validate the integrity of the message contents.
The Response
If the Quantum makes a normal response, the
function code in the response is an echo of the
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 47
function code in the query. The data bytes contain the data collected by the Quantum, such
as register values or status. If an error occurs,
the function code is modified to indicate that the
response is an error response, and the data bytes
contain a code that describes the error. The error check field allows the master to confirm that
the message contents are valid.
Data Field
The data field is constructed using sets of two
hexadecimal digits, in the range of 00 to FF
hexadecimal. For ASCII, these can be made from
a pair of ASCII characters. For RTU, this is one
8-bit number.
The data field of messages sent from a master
to the Quantum devices contains additional information which the Quantum must use to take
the action defined by the function code. This can
include items like discrete and register addresses, the quantity of items to be handled, and the
count of actual data bytes in the field.
For example, if the master requests a Quantum to read a group of holding registers (function code 03), the data field specifies the starting
register and how many registers are to be read.
If no error occurs, the data field of a response
from a Quantum to a Master contains the data
requested. If an error occurs, the field contains
an exception code that the Master application
can use to determine the next action to be taken.
Error Checking
ASCII
In ASCII mode, when data is transmitted to
and from the Quantum Controller, each
message has an Error Checking value appended to the end of the message. Longitudinal Redundancy Check, or LRC, is used as
the method for verifying that the ASCII message sent from the transmitting device was
properly received by the receiving device.
The Longitudinal Redundancy Check (LRC)
field is one byte, containing an eight-bit binary value. The LRC value is calculated by
the transmitting device, by adding together
successive eight-bit bytes of the message,
discarding any carries, and then two's complementing the result. It is performed on the
ASCII message field contents excluding the
colon character that begins the message,
and excluding the CRLF pair at the end of the
message. The LRC is then appended to the
message as the last field preceding the CRLF
(Carriage Line Feed) characters. Each new
addition of a character that would result in
a value higher than 255 decimal simply rolls
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 48

Framing
over the field's value through zero. Because

there is no ninth bit, the carry is discarded
automatically.
A message frame is used to mark the beginning

and ending point of a message allowing the receiving device to determine which device is being addressed and to know when the message is
completed. It also allows partial messages to be
detected and errors flagged as a result.
The receiving device recalculates an LRC

during receipt of the message, and compares the calculated value to the actual
value it received in the LRC field. If the two
values are not equal, an error results.
ASCII
RTU
In ASCII mode, messages start with a

colon ( : ) character (3A hex), and end
with a carriage return-line feed (CRLF)
pair (0D and 0A hex).
In RTU mode, messages include an error

checking field that is based on a Cyclical
Redundancy Check (CRC) method. The CRC
field checks the contents of the entire message. It is applied regardless of any parity
check method used for the individual characters of the message.
The allowable characters transmitted

for all other fields are hexadecimal 0 9, A - F.
All Quantum panels connected to the
network monitor the network bus continuously for the colon character. When
one is received, each Quantum decodes the next field (the address field)
to find out if it is the addressed device.
The CRC field is two bytes, containing a 16

bit binary value. The CRC value is calculated
by the transmitting device, which appends
the CRC to the message. The receiving device recalculates a CRC during receipt of
the message, and compares the calculated
value to the actual value it received in the
CRC field. If the two values are not equal an
error results.
A MODBUS message is placed by

the transmitting device into a frame
that has a known beginning and ending point. This allows receiving devices
to begin at the start of the message,
read the address portion and determine
which device is addressed, and to know
when the message is completed. Partial
messages can be detected and errors
can be set as a result.
The CRC is started by first preloading a 16

bit register to all 1s. Then a process begins of applying successive 8bit bytes of
the message to the current contents of the
register. Only the eight bits of data in each
character are used for generating the CRC.
Start and stop bits, and the parity bit, do not
apply to the CRC.
During generation of the CRC, each 8bit
character is exclusive ORed with the register contents. Then the result is shifted in the
direction of the least significant bit (LSB),
with a zero filled into the most significant
bit (MSB) position. The LSB is extracted and
examined. If the LSB was a 1, the register
is then exclusive ORed with a preset, fixed
value. If the LSB was a 0, no exclusive OR
takes place.
This process is repeated until eight shifts
have been performed. After the last (eighth)
shift, the next 8bit byte is exclusive ORed
with the registers current value, and the
process repeats for eight more shifts as described above. The final contents of the register, after all the bytes of the message have
been applied, is the CRC value.
When the CRC is appended to the message,
the low-order byte is appended first, followed by the high-order byte.
A typical message frame as sent by the

Master is shown below:

as a multiple of character times at the

figure below). The first field then transmitted is the device address.

ASCII Query (Read) Example

To demonstrate how an address within the
Quantum may be read, the following test can
be performed using Windows HyperTerminal
(NOTE: Hyperterminal cannot be used to test
RTU or TCP/IP):
As an example, a MODBUS command will be
created and sent to obtain the actual Discharge
Pressure value of a compressor. Using the address tables found later in this manual, locate the
address for Discharge Pressure. In this case, it is
Frick Address 2003 (decimal). Since this is the
only address we are interested in obtaining the
01 03 07 D3 00 01 21 CRLF
Where:
Message Start:
Quantum ID #:
Read Function:
H. O. address (hex):
L. O. address (hex):
H. O. # of Data Registers:
L. O. # of Data Registers:
Error Correction Code:
Carriage Return - Line Feed:
Look at this message on a more basic level, to

understand how the address that we are requesting is arrived at. We want to know the actual value of the Discharge Pressure, Frick Address 2003 (decimal).
The first part of the message will be a Colon
(:). This represents a heads up alert that data is
coming:
Following the last transmitted character, a similar interval of at least 3.5

character times marks the end of the
message. A new message can begin
after this interval. The entire message
frame must be transmitted as a continuous stream. If a silent interval of more
than 1.5 character times occurs before
completion of the frame, the receiving
device flushes the incomplete message
and assumes that the next byte will be
the address field of a new message.
Similarly, if a new message begins earlier than 3.5 character times following a previous message, the receiving
device will consider it a continuation
of the previous message. This will set
an error, as the value in the final CRC
field will not be valid for the combined
messages. A typical message frame is
shown below:

01 06 1B EE 03 E8 05 CRLF
Where:
Message Start:
Quantum ID #:
Write Function:
H. O. # of Data Value:
L. O. # of Data Value:
Any time that a message is sent, all of the Quantum panels on the MODBUS network will
become active, communications-wise, once the
Colon appears. Next, the panels will look at the
first byte following the Colon ( : ). If this byte
equals the Panel ID # of the particular Quantum
being queried, it will immediately finish reading
the remainder of the message. If the byte does
not equal its ID #, the message will be ignored.
The allowable characters transmitted for all fields are hexadecimal 09,
AF. Networked devices monitor the
network bus continuously, including
during the silent intervals. When the
first field (the address field) is received,
each device decodes it to find out if it is
the addressed device.

01 + 03 + 07 + D3 + 00 + 01 = DF hex
Next, subtract DF (hex) from 100 (hex):
100 (hex) - DF (hex) = 21 (hex)

:
22003 decimal equals 07D3 hex. Looking at our

example, we see that we need a H.O. (High Order) address and a L.O. (Low Order) address.
Since all data sent and received is in ASCII Hex
Byte format, we need to look at D3 Hex as the
Low Order portion of the address. The High Order portion is 07. Now our decimal 2003 is formatted as 07D3 Hex.

Since we are only looking for this one address,

and no other, we can say that we are only looking for one Data Address. Our Data Address part
of the data packet is also looking for a High and a
Low Order value. Fortunately, the number one (1)
is the same in decimal as it is in Hex, therefore,
the Low Order Address is 01 (hex). The High Order Address is 00 (hex), so our decimal 1 is formatted as 0001 (hex).

In order to ensure that the Quantum in question receives the data request accurately, we
must append an Error Check byte to the end of
the message. This is accomplished by adding

To demonstrate how an address within the
Quantum LX may be written to, the following

As an example, a MODBUS command will be

created and sent to the Quantum to set Regulation Mode 1 Setpoint to 100.0 PSIA. First, be
aware that data sent to and received by the
Quantum has one decimal place assumed. This
means that to send the value of 100.0, you actually need to send 1000. Using the address tables
found later in this manual, locate the address for
the Regulation Mode 1 Setpoint. In this case, it
would be Frick Address 7150 (decimal).

being queried, it will immediately finish reading
the remainder of the message. If the byte does
not equal its ID #, the message will be ignored.

The Data Value part of the data packet is looking
for a High and a Low Order value. The number
1000 (dec) must be converted to hexadecimal.
This conversion results in a value of 03E8 (hex).
Separating 03E8 into two bytes results in the
Low Order Value of E8 (hex) and the High Order
Value of 03 (hex):
The first part of the message will be a Colon

In this particular example, we are strictly looking

to write a data value, so we will be performing a

In order to ensure that the Quantum in question receives the data request accurately, we

Normally, we would subtract 1FB (hex) from 100
(hex), as in the previous read example. However,
in this case we see that 1FB hex is greater than
100 hex. Since the math in this particular example would yield a negative number (FFFF FFFF
FFFF FF05), we need to modify the value of 1FB
in order to provide a positive result. This is accomplished quite simply by dropping the most
left hand digit (1FB becomes FB), and then subtracting FB hex from 100 hex:
100 (hex) - FB (hex) = 05 (hex)

All temperatures are in degrees C and all pressures are in PSIA unless the command is sent to
select the units of the panel. Therefore:

MODBUS NOTES
This has been an example of how the Quantum
Controller uses the MODBUS Protocol. It is hoped
that the information provided here will assist the end
user in writing applications that will allow the Quantum to be implemented into networks that the customer may already have in use.
This information is subject to change at any time, and
is provided as a reference only. Not all areas of the
MODBUS Protocol can be handled in this document.
Some additional information regarding MODBUS
Protocol that the end user should be aware of:
There are many versions of MODBUS Protocol

that are available, and an application that works
properly on one system, may not function identically on another.
Some versions of MODBUS Protocol may require the user to increment any referenced addresses by 1 (one). For instance, if you wanted
to look at Frick Address 2003, you may need
to actually look at address 2004. The Quantum
addressing begins at 0 (zero), whereas some
MODBUS Protocols begin at 1 (one), therefore,
you may need to compensate.
7 or 8 bits selectable.
1 or 2 Stop bits selectable.
Parity can be set to None, Odd or Even
When using MODBUS protocol (other than the

Hyperterminal example shown earlier), it is necessary to use the MODBUS Address column as
shown in the Quantum Data Tables. These addresses should work for most applications.
Follow the Frick specifications for data communications requirements.

Hyperterminal can be used to test ASCII, but not
RTU or TCP/IP communications.

NOTE: Be careful not to continuously request a setpoint change. It is to be expected that communications may slow down during the process of writing
setpoints or clearing alarms. Both of these processes
involve writing to either EEPROM or Flash Memory
and does take some time. If communication requests
are being sent faster than once every couple of seconds, there will be temporary slowdowns during
these processes.
MODBUS Data Access
Data passed to and from the Quantum are integer
values with one decimal field assumed unless shown
otherwise or the command is sent to select two decimal fields. For example, if the datas value is 25.5 then
the value 255 is sent. All temperatures are in degree C
and all pressures are in PSIA unless the command is
sent to select the units of the panel. A mode such as
Slide Valve mode is sent as an integer value that represents the mode it is in. For example, a 0 is sent if it
is in manual, or a 10 is sent if it is in automatic, or a
20 is sent if it is in remote. The value zero (0) is used
to represent an OFF status and a DISABLED option.
The value one (1), which is received as a 10, is used
to represent an ON status and an ENABLED option.
Only data values that are designated as setpoints are
modifiable. Read Only is used to help identify what
data is not modifiable. The setpoint range is checked
to see if it is an allowed setting. If it is not allowed,
the setting is not changed. Reference the Quantum
Data Tables in this manual for the address listing and
description of data.
A command has been provided that selects whether
data to and from the Quantum will be returned in
the units that are the default (pressure in PSIA and
temperature in Degree C) or in the units that are selected to display at the panel.

HYPERTERMINAL
perterminal program. (Hyperterminal is usually
found in the Accessories folder). If Hyperterminal
can't be found there, try using the Find File command, and search the entire hard drive.
DESCRIPTION
HyperTerminal is a terminal emulation program which
resides in the Microsoft Windows environment, and
as such, will normally be found on any computer that
is running Microsoft Windows. HyperTerminal provides a method by which the end user may verify
conclusively that their Quantum controller is functioning properly, and as designed, with respect to external communications to remote devices.
Be aware that the screens that are actually

shown on the test computer may or may not appear exactly as shown here. Various versions of
Windows can affect the appearance, as well as
whether or not the screen has been maximized,
or if it has been scaled to a smaller size. Regardless of how the screen work appears, the
function of the screen work is what is important,
and that function is not affected by the way the
screen looks.
Once Hyperterminal has been located, execute

it. A dialog box will appear. You will be prompted
to enter a name for the New Connection. Type
in whatever name you would like to use, Frick
was used in this example. This name will also
create a file once you are finished, saving all of
the setup parameters for future use. It is recommended that a name be chosen to reflect the
type of Protocol that you will be using as you
may wish to setup for various protocols. Once
you have entered a name, click [OK].
NOTE: Hyperterminal can only be used to test

MODBUS ASCII. It CANNOT be used to test Allen-Bradley or MODBUS RTU or TCP/IP.
Many times, the Quantum controller will be installed into an environment whereby the end user
wishes to communicate to it, either through a PLC
(Programmable Logic Controller), a desktop computer for the purpose of monitoring/controlling plant
operations through HMI (Human Machine Interface),
or any number of other communications applications.
The purpose of this desired communications typically
involves viewing and changing setpoints, starting and
stopping a compressor, viewing alarm and shutdown
information, and viewing current operating conditions.
When first connecting a Quantum panel to a communications network, it would be highly desirable to
determine that all necessary parameters (jumper settings, panel setup, and cabling) are properly met so
that communications may be established quickly with
the Quantum, so that time is not lost in trying to
troubleshoot a potentially simple problem.
A connection from a Comm port of a computer running Microsoft Windows can be used to connect to a
serial port of the Quantum.
SETTING UP HYPERTERMINAL
You will need to locate either a lap top or desktop computer that has Hyperterminal installed.
Turn on the power for the lap top.
After the laptop has fully booted, locate the Hy-
A new dialog box will be shown asking to select a

Com port (choose the Com port that your communications cable is attached to, this will normally be
Com-1). The phone number box should be blank.
Click on [OK].
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 56

The Com-1 properties dialog box will now appear.

The parameters in this box must match the requirements of the protocol that you are wishing to use.
The one box that normally would need to be changed
from one protocol to the next is the Data Bits box.
A pull down menu will appear. From this menu, locate

and click on [Properties]. You will once again see the
following screen. This time, click on the [Settings]
tab.
For the purpose of this document, Frick # protocol

will be used. Refer to the MODBUS ASCII section of
this manual for information on MODBUS.
Set the five boxes as follows, then click [OK].

The following screen will appear. This is the screen

whereby all communications (out of the computer,
and into it) will be shown. When valid data is typed in
here, then sent, the connected device recognizes and
responds to that data, and a response will be shown
below the sent data. Click on [File].
The computer will need to be set up to match the

documentation as presented here, for everything to
look and work as shown later. To do this, click on the
[ASCII Setup] button.
On the ASCII Setup screen, for best results, check the

boxes according to the following chart:

090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 57
For MODBUS ASCII:
Send line ends with line feeds

Echo typed characters locally
Append line feeds to incoming line ends
Wrap lines that exceed terminal width
For Frick protocols (# and $):
Echo typed characters locally

Append line feeds to incoming line ends
Wrap lines that exceed terminal width
Leave everything else on this dialog box unchanged,

then click on [OK].
TESTING COMMUNICATIONS
Set the keyboard for CAPS (so that all capital letters
will be typed). Type in the following command: #01I,
then press [ENTER]. (This command will request the
Quantum with ID 01 to send a packet of Information.)
The Properties screen will once again be shown. Click

on the [OK] button to proceed.
If the communications is working properly, there

should be an immediate response from the first
Quantum. The response should look something
(but not necessarily exactly) like #01I000AOMN609.
If this portion of the test has passed, you can try
to communicate to the next (or any Quantum), by
changing the value that you type into the HyperTerminal screen as follows:
You will now be back to the main Hyperterminal
communications screen. This screen will be blank. All
communications, both from the computer, and to the
computer (from the Quantum), will appear on this
screen. Proceed to the Testing Communications section.
Instead of [#01], replace the 01 portion with the

ID that you would like to access. For instance,
if you wanted to talk to a fourth Quantum (ID
4), type in [#04]. This should return a message
from that Quantum.
This has been just a brief description of how to check
your communications and verify that it is working.
Greater detail can be found by consulting tables for
each of the protocols in this manual.
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 58

General Notes
Ensure that the Quantum communications parameters are correct. This setup can be found on the Communications screen. This info must match that of the
device that you are trying to talk to at the other end.
There are two red LEDs associated with the Comm
port on the Quantum (TX & RX). Ensure that neither of these LEDs are on continuously. If one or
the other (or both) are on constantly, disconnect the
Com cable. If the status of the LEDs does not change,
check the wiring connections to the comm port. Ensure that the wiring is not backwards. If the wiring is
correct, power the Quantum down, then back up. If
either or both of the LEDs is still on, a bad driver chip
may be suspected on the Quantum, and the board
should be replaced.
Once everything has been inspected (cables, jumpers, and setup), try to develop communications from
the master. You should see the LEDs on the Comm
port flickering as the Quantum talks to the master.
If nothing happens, it would be best to consult the
HyperTerminal section of this manual for more detailed troubleshooting.
If no data appears, or if the data does not match the
specific protocol requirements that you are using,
then check the following:
Verify that the communications wiring

matches that shown in the drawings at the
end of this manual.
Access the Communications screen and
verify that the Quantum ID is set to the

same value that you are trying to access.
Also, check that the baud rate matches that
of the setup in the properties section of the
Hyperterminal example.
Verify the position of the jumpers by comparing them with the section entitled Quantum Communications Jumpers.
Ensure that the data that you have entered

in Hyperterminal, exactly matches the example.
Go back through the Setting up Hyperterminal section, and ensure that it has been
followed exactly. Repeat the process if necessary.
If you are using a converter card (to convert

the RS-232 signal from the computer to RS422 or RS-485), then either verify that the
converter card is working properly with a
different piece of known functioning equipment, or eliminate it completely by tying
into the Quantum directly through RS-232
(Quantum 4 only).
The Communications port on the computer

is bad. Try to verify this by communicating
to a different piece of known good equipment.
The Communications port on the Quantum is bad.

Remote Set Slide Valve Position

Remote Set Drive Speed
Remote Set Total Capacity
GENERAL NOTES:
Command Values need tenths field added. For example, to
start the compressor, the table above states that 1 = Start.
However, being that one decimal place is assumed, a value of
10 actually needs to be sent.
SPECIFIC NOTES:
Note 1: The compressor must be in remote communications
to accept the start and stop commands that are sent through
serial communications, and the Capacity Mode must be in remote communications to accept load and unload commands
that are sent.
Note 2: To read the proper Temperature/Pressure units, use
Frick address 4566. To change (write to) the Temperature/
Pressure units, use Frick address 8920.
Note 3: Mode must already be enabled.
Note 4: The value passed with this command is the position
(percentage) to which the control will attempt to set the Slide
Valve. The control will automatically load and/or unload the
Slide Valve until it is within a deadband (+/- 0.5%) of the target.
Conditions:
the compressor must be running
1 = Start
1 = Stop
0 = Turn off
See Note 1
1 15 = Load x seconds
0 = Turn off
1 15 = Unload x seconds
25, 50, 75, 100 (represents capacity %)
0 = Manual
1 = Auto
3 = Remote -- I/O
1 = Auto
3 = Remote -- I/O
4 = Remote -- 4-20ma
1 = Clear Alarms
1 = Clear Recycle Delay
0 = Disable
1 = Enable
0 = C / PSIA
See Note 2
1 = Panel Units
0 = Regulation Mode 1
See Note 3
0 100%
See Note 4
0 100%
See Note 5
0 - 200
See Note 6
the Capacity Mode must be Remote Comms

if the compressor is Variable Speed, the Slide
Valve will not go below the Variable Speed Minimum Slide Valve setpoint
This command is reset by a Remote Load or Remote Unload

command
Note 5: The value passed with this command is the speed
(percentage) to which the control will attempt to set the Drive.
Conditions:
the compressor must be Variable Speed
the compressor must be running
the Capacity Mode must be Remote Comms
the Drive will not go below the Drive Speed Minimum setpoint
This command is reset by a Remote Load or Remote Unload
command
Note 6: This command is actually a combination the previous two (Remote Set Slide Valve Position and Remote Set
Drive Speed), and is for the convenience of the PLC programmer. A value of X from 0 to 100 will set the Slide Valve Position
to X% and the Drive Speed to 0% (or the allowable minimum).
A value of X from 100 to 200 will set the Slide Valve to 100%
and the Drive Speed to (X 100)%.

Q5 CONTROLLER
MAIN BOARD HISTORY AND IDENTIFICATION
ure the Quantum 5 for specific applications.
The processor board shown on this page is known as

the Q5 board, and it is based on the Pentium microprocessor platform. The operating software that this
board runs is known as Quantum LX software. This
software displays graphic information and data on the
LCD screen in a format that is similar to the way a
Windows desktop computer screen displays a Web
browser (the Internet).
The Q5 board can be identified by the presence of a
large aluminum heat sink located on the board. Adjacent to the processor board, is an Interface board
which allows the user to attach local communications
connections via the four orange connectors (RS-422
and RS-485 ports).
There are also a number of jumpers present on both
the Q5 and the Interface board. These jumpers MAY
need to be modified by qualified personnel to config-
The Q5 utilizes Flash Card technology. There is a Flash

Card socket located on the under side of this main
board. The Q5 board has the LX Operating System
pre-loaded at the factory, so this Flash Card feature
will primarily be utilized for future program updates.
The information that follows will primarily describe
the jumper configuration for communications settings, as well as wiring diagrams for the different
types of communications that are possible with the
Q5.
Q5 COMMUNICATIONS CONNECTOR LOCATIONS

The following pictorial shows the customer connection points for both serial communications and the
Ethernet connection. Note that COMM-4 is reserved
for communications to the installed I/O boards, and
cannot be used for customer applications.

Q5 SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS HARDWARE
COM-1 AND COM-2 DESCRIPTION
Q5 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
User connections for serial communications to
and from the Q5 are located on the Interface
board, and can use RS-422 and/or RS-485 hardware protocol. These hardware protocols can be
connected via Com-3 and Com-4 for RS-485,
and Com-1 and Com-2 for RS-422.
As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the
user connections for the serial communications
portion of the Q5 controller consists of an Interface board, mounted below and to the right of
the main controller. In addition to external forms
of serial communication (to be discussed shortly), the keypad also connects here:

The board pictured on this page has two RS-422 serial communications ports, labeled P10 (Com-1) and
P11 (Com-2). They can be used for external communications to the outside world.
COM-3 DESCRIPTION
Com-3 is labeled as P16 and is used for RS-485 hardware protocol, and can be used in addition to any of
the other communications ports that may be being

GENERAL NOTE
The information that is presented here and on
the following pages, refers to the Interface board
and not the Q5 board. The Interface board was
developed to make customer connections to the
processor easier, as the Q5 use connections that
are too small and delicate to easily utilize in the
field.

With the introduction of the Q5/Interface board,

customer connections to RS-232 have been
eliminated. If RS-232 communications IS required, these signals may be converted to RS422/485, and the appropriate available port(s)
utilized.
RS-422/485 WIRING AND JUMPERS
All four Interface board serial communications
ports are capable of RS-485, and COMM-1 (P10)
and COMM-2 (P11) can additionally be configred
as either RS-422 or RS-485.

SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS TROUBLESHOOTING

WIRING NOTE: See the chapter entitled Serial Communications Port Wiring, for the pictorials and tables referred to in the following paragraphs. Always
ensure that the wiring matches these pictorials before proceeding.
JUMPER NOTE: Some of the jumpers in the previous tables may need to be modified for RS-422/485
to ensure optimum communications performance.
Typically, the termination jumper should be installed
in the last Quantum in the communications daisy
chain only.
TROUBLESHOOTING RS-232
The Q5 does not use RS-232.
COMM-1 (P10)
COMM-1 may be used for either RS-422 or
RS-485, depending on the setting of jumper
J1. If pins 1-2 are shorted (closed) on J1,
then RS-422 is selected.
Notice in the figure entitled RS-422/485
Connectors, Jumpers and LED Location, there are six jumpers associated with
COMM-1. Refer to the table entitled RS422/485 (COMM-1, P10 & COMM-2, P11)
Board Jumpers for the function of each of
the jumpers associated with COMM-1. Notice also the two LED indicators that are
pointed out. D8 LED will flash each time that
the Quantum transmits (TX) data. D9 LED
will flash each time that data is received
(RX).
If communications cannot be established using COMM-1, then note the status of these
two LEDs (D8 and D9). If D8 is constantly lit,
it may indicate an external wiring issue (TX
and RX possibly swapped). Also verify the
position of J1, and ensure that it is set for
pins 1-2 closed.
Also verify that the proper Panel ID, Baud
rate, data bits, and protocol has been setup
at the Quantum, and matches that of the
initiating device (see the section entitled
COMMUNICATIONS SETUP for further details).

COMM-3 (P16)
Notice that in the figure entitled RS-422/485
Connectors, Jumpers and LED Location, there are no jumpers associated with
COMM-3. Notice also the two LED indicators
that are pointed out in the figure. D42 LED
will flash each time that the Quantum 5
transmits (TX) data. D43 LED will flash each
time that data is received (RX).
If communications with the Quantum 5
cannot be established using COMM-2, then
note the status of these two LEDs (D42 and
D43). If D43 is constantly lit, it may indicate
an external wiring issue (TX and RX possibly
swapped). If D43 never flashes, then the LX
is not receiving any data. If D43 does flash
each time a data bit is received, but D42
never flashes, this may indicate that the LX
has received a data command, but that the
protocol package is not properly formatted,
and the LX cannot respond.
On the Communications Setup screen, verify that the proper Panel ID, Baud rate, data
bits, and protocol has been setup at the
Quantum LX, and matches that of the ini-
tiating device.
COMM-4 (P17)
NOTE: Although COMM-4 is used for RS485 communications, this port is reserved
for the purpose of communicating to the internal Digital and Analog boards. It can still
be diagnosed with the following procedure.
Notice that in the figure entitled RS-422/485
Connectors, Jumpers and LED Location, there are no jumpers associated with
COMM-4. Notice also the two LED indicators that are pointed out in the figure. D54
LED will flash each time that the Quantum
5 transmits (TX) data. D55 LED will flash
each time that data is received (RX).
If communications with the internal I/O logic boards of the Quantum 5 cannot be established using COMM-4, then note the status of these two LEDs (D54 and D55). If D54
is constantly lit, it may indicate an external
wiring issue (TX and RX possibly swapped).
If D55 never flashes, then the LX is not receiving any data from the I/O boards. If D54
does flash each time a data bit is received,
but D55 never flashes, this may indicate that
the LX has received a data command, but
that the protocol package is not properly
formatted, and the LX cannot respond.

QUANTUM 4 CONTROLLER
MAIN BOARD HISTORY AND IDENTIFICATION
need to be modified by qualified personnel to configure the Quantum 4 for specific applications.
The processor board shown on this page is known as

the Quantum 4 board, and it is based on the Pentium microprocessor platform. The operating software that this board runs is known as Quantum LX
software. This software displays graphic information
and data on the LCD screen in a format that is similar
to the way a Windows desktop computer screen
displays a Web browser (the Internet).
The Quantum 4 utilizes Flash Card technology, as

did the Quantum 3. There is a Flash Card socket
located on the under side of this main board. The
Quantum 4 board has the LX Operating System
pre-loaded at the factory, so this Flash Card feature
will primarily be utilized for future program updates.
When calling Frick Company for service or help, it
will greatly assist us if the type of board is known,
either Quantum 1, 2, 3 or 4. Additionally, Frick
will request the Sales Order number, and the Operating System version number (this can be found on
the About screen). The more information available
at the time of the call, the better able we will be to
assist you.
The Quantum 4 board can be identified by the presence of a daughter board mounted to the main board.
This daughter board is the communications portion
of the Quantum 4, and it can be identified by the
presence of an 8 position DIP switch. There are also
a number of jumpers (or links) present on this smaller
board, as well as three green connectors (RS-232,
RS-422 and RS-485 ports). The jumpers are used to
set up the communications parameters that are listed
on the next page.
The information that follows will primarily describe

the jumper configuration for communications settings, as well as wiring diagrams for the different
types of communications that are possible with the
Quantum 4.
The main board (larger of the two) has a number of

jumpers (or links) also. The links on this board MAY

QUANTUM 4 SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS

HARDWARE
QUANTUM 4 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Serial communications to and from the Quantum 4 can use RS-232, RS-422 and/or RS-485
hardware protocol. These three hardware protocols can be connected via Com-1 and Com-2 for
RS-422/485, and Com-2 for RS-232. The reason
that Com-2 can be either RS-232 or RS-422/485
will be explained in the section entitled Com-1
and Com-2 Description.
090.020-CS (JUNE 11)

Page 119
COM-1 AND COM-2 DESCRIPTION

The board pictured in the previous column actually has three serial communications ports
(labeled as TB1, TB2 and TB3). TB1 is known as
Com-1, and is reserved solely for RS-422/485
communications. It can be used for external
communications to the outside world.
TB2 is known as Com-2. However, TB3 is also
known as Com-2. The difference here is that TB2
is for RS-422/485 whereas TB3 is for RS-232.
TB2 can be used in the same manner as TB1.
The Com-1 and Com-2 serial communications

portion of the Quantum 4 controller consists of
a daughter board, mounted to the main controller. In addition to external forms of serial communication (to be discussed shortly), the keypad
also connects here.
When TB2 (Com-2) is setup to be used for RS422/485, then TB3 cannot be used for RS-232,
and vice-versa. The reason for this is that there
is a jumper (LK11) that needs to be properly set
that will tell the controller which of the two ports
will be used (either TB2 as RS-422/285 OR TB3
as RS-232).
Com-3 is another serial port (RS-485) that is

dedicated to providing communications to the
DIgital and Analog boards. The location of Com3 is on the main processor board and will be explained in the section entitled Com-3 Description.
RS-422/RS-485 signals cannot be connected directly to an RS-232 device. These signals must
first be conditioned (converted). See the section
entitled Converting an RS-232 Signal to RS422/485 for details.
RS-232 signals cannot be connected directly to

either an RS-422 or RS-485 device. These signals must first be conditioned (converted). See
the section entitled Converting an RS-232 Signal to RS-422/485 for details.

COM-3 DESCRIPTION
Com-3 (PL6) is used for RS-232 hardware protocol only, and can be used in addition to any
of the other communications ports that may be
being used. So it is possible to have two RS-232
ports active (Com-2 AND Com-3) at the same
time, as well as Com-1 for RS-422/485.

SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS TROUBLESHOOTING

WIRING NOTE: See the chapter entitled Serial Communications Port Wiring, for the pictorials and tables referred to in the following paragraphs. Always
ensure that the wiring matches these pictorials before proceeding.
JUMPER NOTE: Some of the jumpers in the previous tables may need to be modified for RS-422/485
to ensure optimum communications performance.
Typically, the termination jumper should be installed
in the last Quantum in the communications daisy
chain only.
Com-2 (TB3)
Notice in the figure entitled RS-232 Com2 (TB3) Communications Wiring, the only
jumper associated with TB3 Com-2 is jumper LK11. LK11 must be set to the A position.

APPENDIX A
FRICK SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS CONVERTER MODULE

(Part Number 639B0086H01)
DESCRIPTION
Frick Controls has developed a DIN-rail mountable
communications module for the purpose of converting typical RS-232 serial protocol to either RS-422 or
RS-485 serial protocols. The module will also work
converting RS-422 or RS-485 to RS-232 (bi-directional). Due to the tight mounting restrictions in many
existing control panels, this module provides the ultimate solution for field communications upgrades
or modifications. No drilling is required, and minimal
space is lost. The only requirement is an external
source of 24 volt DC power.
Press the tabs using the thumb and finger, and with
your other hand carefully slide the circuit board out of
the housing. Ensure that proper anti-static guidelines
are followed while handling the circuit board.
The following diagram shows the circuit board:
Module circuit board

For easy reference, the DIP switch position functions
are provided on the board. For the purpose of clarity
however, refer to the following table:
Frick Communications Converter Module
SETTING THE DIPSWITCH
Inside the module is a circuit board which contains a
DIP switch. This switch must be set according to the
necessary protocol parameters that you are trying to
achieve. It is recommended to set or verify the settings of this DIP switch before mounting and wiring
the module. The circuit board must be removed from
its housing in order to access this DIP switch. Each
end of the housing has a small tab, located just below
the bottom most terminal block of each end. Hold the
module as shown in the following pictorial:

Disassembling the module
This module can be mounted on the standard din rail

that is available in most control panels.
Find an open area of the din rail (5/8 inch minimum, for the width of the module), and preferably as far away from any inductive loads (relays,
contactors, etc.) as possible.
Module orientation is not critical, however, try

to mount it so that all wiring connections can be
made neatly, and according to any applicable local codes.

Catch one end of the DIN rail latch (at the bottom
of the module, under one edge of the DIN rail,
then snap the other latch onto the opposite side
of the DIN rail, as shown below:

All remaining connections will be based

upon the particular protocols that you have
decided to use. Simply match the SIGNAL
NAME from the source device to match the
SIGANAL NAME of the module. All external
communications wiring must conform with
the Frick Proper Installation of Electronic
Equipment in an Industrial Environment
publication.
RS-485 CONNECTIONS
Although typical RS-485 communications requires a
control signal to change the state of the RX/TX driver
lines to establish handshaking, this board incorporates a smart feature that handles this handshaking
internally, without the user needing to provide it. It is
a true two-wire system. Refer to following figure for
the pin connections showing how to attach a 2-wire
