About the Ethernet Slave Interface
General Description
The Ethernet Slave interface implements a multi purpose communication solution for the Anybus X-
gateway platform, offering industrial protocol support as well as web and email capabilities.
The interface exchanges data via two data
buffers a.k.a. the Input and Output Buffers.
These buffers can be accessed via a built in Filesystem
web server, or via industrial protocols such as FTP Server
Modbus/TCP and EtherNet/IP. A built in

email client can send email messages triggered Telnet Server
by a data event.

Filesystem
General
Web content, email messages, and configuration data are stored in files within a built in filesystem. The
filesystem is a fixed-size storage area with a hierarchical directory structure. Files can be grouped in di-
rectories for increased readability, and a security framework protects important files from unauthorized
access.
Conventions & Limitations
• Case Sensitivity
The file system is case sensitive, i.e.‘Anybus.txt’ does not equal ‘Anybus.TXT’.
• Filename / Pathname length

Filenames can be a maximum of 48 characters long. Pathnames can be 256 characters in total,
filename included.
• Free Space
Approximately 1.4MB non-volatile (FLASH), and 1MB volatile.
• Data Corruption
Each FLASH segment can be rewritten approximately 1000000 times before data corruption.
One or more flash segments will be erased upon deleting, renaming or moving a file, appending
data to an existing file, or formatting the filesystem.
Security Framework
The filesystem features two security levels; Admin and Normal. Security level is set at a per user basis,
unless running in Global Admin Mode (see below).
• Admin Users
Admin users has unrestricted access to the filesystem through FTP and Telnet. User accounts
for Admin users are defined in the file ‘ad_pswd.cfg’.
• Normal User
Normal users are restricted to the \user\ directory and it’s subdirectories, i.e. when a normal user
connects via FTP or telnet, this will be their root directory. User accounts for normal users are
defined in the file ‘sys_pswd.cfg’.
Files within the file system can be protected from web access through username/password authoriza-
tion, see A-6 “Password Files” and A-6 “‘web_accs.cfg’”. It is also possible to configure which IP ad-
dresses and what protocols that are allowed to connect to the ethernet interface, see A-2 “‘ip_accs.cfg’”.
Global Admin Mode

If no admin password file (See A-6 “Password Files”) is found, the interface will run in Global Admin
Mode; i.e. all users will have Admin access rights. No login is needed for Telnet, and the FTP server
accepts any username/password combination.
Global Admin Mode is primarily intended for product configuration and development.

Chapter 3
Installation and Configuration
General Information
The ethernet interface offers several ways to configure it’s network settings:
• Configuration Switches (below)
• Configuration File (See A-1 “‘ethcfg.cfg’”)
• Anybus IPconfig (HICP client) (See 3-2 “Anybus IPconfig (HICP)”)
• Via the Web Interface (See 4-1 “Web Interface”)
• ARP (See 3-2 “Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)”)
• EtherNet/IP (see 6-6 “TCP/IP Interface Object, Class F5h”)
If the configuration switches are set to a value other than 0 (zero), the network configuration will be
determined by the value of the switches, see 3-1 “Configuration Switches” (below).
If the configuration switches are set to 0 (zero), the network configuration will be loaded from the file
‘etccfg.cfg’. If this file cannot be found, the ethernet interface will attempt to retrieve it’s network set-
tings from a DHCP/BootP server. If no server is found, the interface will indicate an error on the Net-
work Status LED. (Note that the network configuration can still be set using ARP or HICP). The
interface supports DHCP Reboot, i.e. it will ask the DHCP/BootP for the IP address stored in the con-
figuration file. If the address is free to use, it will be assigned to the ethernet interface. If not, it will be
assigned a new address.
Configuration Switches
The configuration switch provides an easy way to configure the interface for intranet use. The switch
represents the binary value of the last byte in the IP address.
If the switch is set to a value between 1-2541, the interface will use the settings described below.
IP address: 192.168.0.n (n reflects the binary value of the switches)
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 (fixed)
Gateway address: 0.0.0.0 (fixed)
Example:
The switches are set to 00010100 (20 decimal). The IP address of the eth-
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
ON ernet interface will be 192.168.0.20
(MSB) (LSB)
Note 1: These settings can only be used on a local network; this is because the IP address that is being
set belongs to the private address set, see RFC 1918.
Note 2: Depending on if the ethernet interface is top or bottom mounted, the orientation of the switch-
es are different.
1. 255 is used for local broadcasts.

Installation and Configuration 3-2
Anybus IPconfig (HICP)

HMS IP Configuration Protocol, or HICP, provides a simple way to configure Anybus based ethernet
interfaces using a user friendly software utility from HMS called Anybus IPconfig.
During startup, the utility scans the network

for Anybus based ethernet interfaces. If
needed, the network can be rescanned by
clicking ‘Scan’.
To edit the settings of the ethernet interface,
double click on it’s entry in the list.
A window will appear, containing the IP configuration and

password settings. The IP configuration can be edited di-
rectly.
To enter a password, click on the ‘Change password’ check-
box, and enter the password under ‘New password’. (If the
interface has already been assigned a password, first enter
the old password under ‘Password’.).
When done, click ‘Set’. The new IP configuration will now
be stored in the file ‘ethcfg.cfg’.
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)

The IP address can be changed during runtime using the ARP command from a PC. This method can
be used to reconfigure ethernet interfaces that already has been configured, or even to reconfigure in-
terfaces outside the host’s subnet.
Below is an example on how to change the IP address from a Microsoft Windows™ command prompt:
arp -s <IP address> <MAC address>

ping <IP address>
arp -d <IP address>
The ‘arp -s’ command will store the IP and MAC (printed on the back of the Anybus-X gateway)
addresses in the PC’s ARP table. When the ‘ping’ command is executed, the PC sends this infor-
mation to the interface using the MAC address. The interface detects that it was addressed with
the correct MAC address and adopts the IP settings sent by the PC. The new settings are then
stored in the file ‘ethcfg.cfg’.
IMPORTANT: As the Arp command automatically configures the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, the first three
bytes of the IP address must be the same as for the PC executing the command.
Example:
PC - 10.10.12.67
Interface- 10.10.12.x (Where x is a value between 1 and 254)
Installation and Configuration 3-3
Gateway Config Interface

The Gateway Config Interface features the following Ethernet-specific settings:

Web Interface
General
The ethernet interface features a fast full featured web server with SSI capabilities. A default web inter-
face provides access to most common options via any standard web browser. The web interface is how-
ever fully customizable and can be tailor made to fit a particular product (For more information, see B-
1 “Creating Your Own Configuration”).
The default web interface differs slightly depending on network type (i.e. slave, master, fieldbus type etc),
however some basic functions are essentially the same.
• Device Diagnostics1
These pages are different depending on
network type, and holds diagnostic infor-
mation about the network interface. For
more information, see 4-2 “Device Diag-
nostics (Masters/Scanners only)”.

Chapter 5
Modbus/TCP Server
General Information
The Modbus/TCP protocol is an implementation of the standard Modbus protocol running on top of
TCP/IP. The built in Modbus/TCP server provides access to the Input- and Output Buffers via a subset
of the functions defined in the Modbus/TCP specification. While this means that it can communicate
with devices that comply with this protocol, it does not mean that all services available in the Modbus/
TCP protocol specification are supported.
Modbus/TCP messages are exchanged through TCP port no. 502 and the server handles up to 8 con-
current connections.
For detailed information regarding the Modbus/TCP protocol, consult the Open Modbus Specifica-
tion.1
Address Modes
The Input- and Output Buffers are mapped to 16-bit Modbus registers on the Modbus/TCP side. The
Ethernet interface features two modes of representation, which affects the Modbus register map.
• Modbus Address Mode (Default)

In this mode, the Input- and Output Buffers are mapped to different Modbus register types.
Note that coil addressing is not possible in this mode.
See also...
- 5-3 “Data Representation in Modbus Address Mode”
• Anybus Address Mode
Compared to Modbus Addressing Mode, this mode allows data to be addressed in a more flexible
manner. Note however that several function codes can be used to access the very same data.
While this may appear confusing at first, it allows data to be manipulated in ways not possible in
Modbus Addressing Mode (e.g. it is possible to manipulate individual bits of a register by access-
ing coils associated with the same memory location).
See also...
- 5-4 “Data Representation in Anybus Address Mode”
Note: Modbus Address Mode is enabled by setting the ‘Modbus Address Mode’-setting in the Gateway
Config Interface to ‘Enable’. Anybus Address Mode is enabled by setting the very same parameter to
‘Disable’.

Modbus/TCP Server 5-2
Modbus Exception Codes

With the exception of broadcast messages, the Modbus Master expects a normal response upon sending
a Query. If no response is returned (e.g. due to a transmission error), this will eventually trigger a timeout
condition in the Master.
If the server receives a Query but is for some reason unable to process it (i.e. the Modbus master tries
to access a non-existent Register), an exception response is returned to inform the master of the nature
of the error.
The following exception codes may be returned by the server:
# Meaning Description
01h Illegal Function The Query contains an illegal or unsupported function call
02h Illegal Data Address The Query contains an illegal data address
03h Illegal Data Value The Query contains invalid data
Modbus Diagnostics
The Modbus/TCP server features several diagnostic counters which increments on pre-defined events.
These counters may provide valuable clues when troubleshooting the network communication, and can
be accessed through the standard diagnostics command (function code 0x08).
The following sub-functions are implemented:
# Meaning Description
00h Return Query Data Data passed in the Query shall be looped back in the response.
0Ah Clear Counters and Diagnostic Register Clears all diagnostic counters in the server.
0Ch Return Bus Communication Error Count Returns the number of CRC-errors encountered by the server.
0Dh Return Bus Exception Error Count Returns the number of exception responses returned by the server.
0Eh Return Slave Message Count Returns the number of messages addressed to the server (broadcast
included)

Ethernet/IP
General
The interface can act as a Group 2 and 3 server on an EtherNet/IP network. EtherNet/IP is based on
the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) which is also the application layer used by DeviceNet and Con-
trolNet to exchange data between node
Implemented Objects
EtherNet/IP requires some mandatory objects; these are implemented as well as some vendor specific
objects. The mandatory objects are the ones in the specification from ODVA.
The following vendor specific objects are implemented:
Class Name Contents

01h Identity Object Hods general information and status about the interface.
04h Assembly Object Holds the Input and Output data buffers.
AAh Diagnostic Object Contains diagnostic information about the ethernet interface.
F5h TCP/IP Interface Object Holds the IP settings of the interface.
F6h Ethernet Link Object Holds the low level communication properties of the interface.
I/O Data Representation

The Input & Output buffers can be accessed from EtherNet/IP via the Assembly Object, instances 64h
(Input) and 96h (Output). For more information, see 6-3 “Assembly Object, Class 04h”. Note that this
data can also be accessed via Modbus/TCP, the email client, or the built in web server.

FTP Server
General
It is possible to upload/download files to/from the file system using a standard FTP client. Depending
on security settings, different parts of the filesystem can be accessed by the user:
• Normal users
The root directory will be ‘\user’ unless the user has Admin access rights, see below.
• Admin users
The user will have unrestricted access to the file system, i.e. the root directory will be ‘\’.
• Global Admin Mode

Any username/password combination will be accepted. All users has unrestricted access to the
file system, i.e. the root directory will be ‘\’.
For more information about the security framework, see 2-1 “Security Framework”.
Accessing the FTP Server Using Windows Explorer™

To access the FTP server using the Windows Explorer™, open an explorer window, and type the fol-
lowing in the Address following:
ftp://user:password@<address>/
Substitute ‘user’ and ‘password’ with a valid username and password combination, and replace
<address> with the hostname or IP address of the ethernet interface.
Note: The factory default admin login is ‘ABX’ (username) and ‘FTPAccess’ (password
Chapter 8
Telnet Server
General
Using a Telnet client, the user can access the filesystem in the ethernet interface using a command line
interface similar to the Microsoft Windows™ command prompt. Depending on security settings, dif-
ferent parts of the filesystem can be accessed by the user:
• Normal users
The root directory will be ‘\user’ unless the user has Admin access rights, see below.
• Admin users
The user will have unrestricted access to the file system, i.e. the root directory will be ‘\’.
• Global Admin Mode

No login is required in this mode. All users have unrestricted access to the file system, i.e. the
root directory will be ‘\’.
Accessing the Telnet Server using Microsoft Windows™

To access the telnet server using the telnet client provided with Microsoft Windows™, type the follow-
ing in the command prompt:
telnet <address>
(Substitute <address> with the hostname or IP address of the ethernet interface)
The server will now prompt for a valid username password combination:
HMS Anybus-S Ethernet module

Login: <user>
Password: <password>
(Substitute <user> and <password> with a valid user/password combination)
If successful, you are now logged in and can enter commands using the built in command line interface.
Login OK (Admin mode)

Appendix A
System Files
System files typically contain parameters which controls the general behavior of the interface, or provide
status information from the gateway. These files are common ASCII files which can be edited with any
text editor. Note that depending on security settings, some of these files may be inaccessible for normal
users. Generally, the interface has to be restarted in order for any changes in these files to have effect.
Note: It is very important to follow the exact syntax specifications for each configuration file, otherwise
the interface might have problems interpreting it, which can result in a faulty or non-expected behaviour.
Configuration files
‘ethcfg.cfg’
This file contains the network configuration and is read by the interface at start up. The settings in this
file may be affected by several mailbox- and SSI commands. For more information about network con-
figuration see 3-1 “Installation and Configuration”.

System Files A-2
The contents of this file can be redirected by placing the line ‘[File path]’ on the first row, and a file path
on the second.
Example:
[File path]
\user\eth_settings.cfg
In this example, the settings described above will be loaded from the file ‘user\eth_settings.cfg’.
This permits normal users to access the network configuration settings.
‘ip_accs.cfg’
This file specifies which IP addresses and what protocols that are allowed to connect to the interface,
and is structured as follows:
[Web]
[FTP]
[Telnet]
[Modbus/TCP]
[Ethernet/IP]
[All]
The allowed IP addresses are specified separately for each protocol under the corresponding
header. The wildcard ‘*’ can be used to allow series of IP addresses. If a protocol header is not
given, the system will use the settings specified under the header ‘All’. If the ‘All’ header is not
given, the protocol will not accept any connections.
Example:
[Web]
10.10.12.*
10.10.13.*
[FTP]
10.10.12.*
[Telnet]
10.10.12.*
[All]
*.*.*.*
The above example will allow all IP addresses beginning with 10.10.12 to access using all proto-
cols. Addresses beginning with 10.10.13 will be able to access the web server, but not the FTP
and Telnet servers. The Modbus/TCP server and the Ethernet/IP adapter will accept connec-
tions from any IP address.
on the second.
Example:
[File path]
\my_settings\ip_access_rights.cfg
In this example, the settings described above will be loaded from the file
‘\my_settings\ip_access_rights.cfg’.
IMPORTANT: Do not under any circumstances enter address ‘0.0.0.0’ for [All], since this will in effect prevent any
external access to the scanner interface altogether. Failure to observe this will render the product unusable and require service
from the HMS support office.
System Files A-3
‘onoffln.cfg’
The ON/OFF line functionality is by default configured to be triggered by the Link Status. It can how-
ever be configured to be triggered by for example a Modbus command. This is done by creating the file
‘\onoffln.cfg’.
• ON/OFF-line trigger
Example: Values: ‘Link’, ‘EIP’ and ‘Modbus’

If the keyword ‘ALL’ is given, the ON/OFF line
functionality will trigger on all Modbus commands.
The headings ‘[Timeout]’ and ‘[Commands]’ shall only given if the ON/OFF-line Trigger value
is set to ‘Modbus’.

In this example, the welcome message will be loaded from the file
‘\my_settings\telnet_welcome_message.txt’.
System Files A-4
‘http.cfg’
By default, the built in web server recognizes the following file types based on their filename extension:
Content Type File Extension(s) Scanned for SSI

text/html *.htm; *.html; *.shtm Yes
image/gif *.gif No
image/jpeg *.jpeg; *.jpg; *.jpe No
image/x-png *.png No
application/x-javascript *.js No
text/plain *.bat; *.txt; *.c; *.h; *.cpp No
application/x-zip-compressed *.zip No
application/octet-stream *.exe; *.com No
text/vnd.wap.wml *.wml No
application/vnd.wap.wmlc *.wmlc No
image/vnd.wap.wbmp *.wbmp No
text/vnd.wap.wmlscript *.wmls Yes
application/vnd.wap.wmlscript *.wmlsc No
text/xml *.xml No
application/pdf *.pdf No
It is possible to add additional content types by adding them in ‘http.cfg’ under the heading [FileTypes].
When a file is requested through the web server it will first search for the file types specified in this file.
If it’s not found in this file it will search for it among the default content types. This means that adding
file type in this file will replace it’s predefined type. If a file extension is not recognized, the content type
is set to binary data “/”.
It is also possible to reconfigure which filetypes that shall be scanned for SSI by adding them under the
heading [SSIFileTypes]. Up to 50 additional SSI file types can be defined.

Email files (email_1.cfg, email_2.cfg ... email_10.cfg)
These files contain predefined email messages and information on how and when to send them. Each
email message is triggered by an event in the Input/Output buffers1. The Input and Output buffers are
scanned once every 0.5 second, i.e. an event must be present longer than 0.5 seconds in order to be de-
tected. It is possible to define up 10 user defined, and 10 admin defined messages, each triggered by dif-
ferent events. These shall be placed in the directories “\user\email\” for normal user configurable
messages and “\email” for administrator-configurable messages. The files must be named ‘email_1.cfg’,
‘email_2.cfg’ ... ‘email_10.cfg’.

These directories are protected from web browser access.
The file format is the following:
User1:password1
User2:password2
...
User3:password3
Example:
User:Password
In this example, the username is ‘User’, and the password is ‘Password’.
If no ‘:’ is present, the password will be equal to the username.
Example:
Username
In this example, both username and password will be ‘Username’.
‘web_accs.cfg’
To protect a directory from web access, a file called ‘web_accs.cfg’ must be placed in the directory to
protect. This file shall contain a list of users that are allowed to browse the protected directory and its
subdirectories. Multiple of these password files may be present in the system, allowing different users to
access different files and directories.
The file format is the same as for the ‘ad_pswd.cfg’ and ‘sys_pswd.cfg’ files, except that the optional
parameter ‘AuthName’ can be added. The value of this parameter will be presented in the login window.
If it is not given, the requested file/pathname will be presented instead.
File format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
(AuthName)
User:Password
[AuthName]
(Message goes here)
The contents of this file can be redirected by placing the line ‘[File path]’ on the first row, followed by
a list of password files.
System Files A-7
Example:
[File path]
\user\pswd\my_passwords\web_pswd.cfg
\user\pswd\my_passwords\more_pswd.cfg
[AuthName]
(Message goes here)
In this example, the accepted user/passwords will be loaded from the files
‘\user\pswd\my_passwords\web_pswd.cfg’ and
‘\user\pswd\my_passwords\more_pswd.cfg’
If any errors in the format of these files is detected the user/password protection will be ignored.
Virtual Files
The interface also contains a virtual file system containing a set of files used to build the default config-
uration webpage. The virtual file system can be overwritten or disabled, but not erased; A file with the
same name in the file system replaces the file in the virtual file system until it is removed.

Appendix B
Server Side Include (SSI) Functionality

The SSI functionality makes it possible to display or alter I/O data and configuration settings on a web

For information about how to change the SSI output, please see chapter B-8 “Changing the SSI Output”
1. This function cannot be used within email messages

printf
This SSI function includes a formatted string which may contain data from the Input/Output buffers,
on a web page. The formatting of the string is equal to the standard C function printf().
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’printf("String to write", Arg1, Arg2, ..., ArgN)’-->
Like the standard C function printf() the "String to write" for this SSI function contains two types of
objects: Ordinary characters, which are copied to the output stream, and conversion specifications, each
of which causes conversion and printing of the next successive argument to printf. Each conversion
specification begins with the character % and ends with a conversion character. Between the % and the
conversion character there may be, in order:
• Flags (in any order), which modify the specification:

- which specifies left adjustment of the converted argument in its field.
+ which specifies that the number will always be printed with a sign
(space) if the first character is not a sign, a space will be prefixed.
0 for numeric conversions, specifies padding to the field with leading zeroes.
# which specifies an alternate output form. For o, the first digit will be zero. For x or
X, 0x or 0X will be prefixed to a non-zero result. For e, E,f, g and G, the output will
always have a decimal point; for g and G, trailing zeros will not be removed.
• A number specifying a minimum field width. The converted argument will be printed in a field
at least this wide, and wider if necessary. If the converted argument has fewer characters than the
field width it will be padded on the left (or right, if left adjustment has been requested) to make
up the field width. The padding character is normally space, but can be 0 if the zero padding flag
is present.
• A period, which separates the field width from the precision.
• A number, the precision, that specifies the maximum number of characters to be printed from a
string, or the number of digits to be printed after the decimal point for e, E, or F conversions,
or the number of significant digits for g or G conversion, or the minimum number of digits to
be printed for an integer (leading 0s will be added to make up the necessary width)
• A length modifier h, l (letter ell), or L. "h" Indicates that the corresponding argument is to be
printed as a short or unsigned short; "l" indicates that the argument is along or unsigned long.
The conversion characters and their meanings are shown below. If the character after the % is not a con-
version character, the behaviour is undefined.
Character Argument type, Converted to

d, i byte, short; decimal notation (For signed representation. Use signed argument)
o byte, short; octal notation (without a leading zero).
x, X byte, short; hexadecimal notation (without a leading 0x or 0X), using abcdef for 0x or ABCDEF
for 0X.
u byte, short; decimal notation.
c byte, short;single character, after conversion to unsigned char.
s char*; characters from the string are printed until a "\0" is reached or until the number of char-
acters indicated by the precision have been printed
f float; decimal notation of the form [-]mmm.ddd, where the number of d’s is specified by the pre-
cision. The default precision is 6; a precision of 0 suppresses the decimal point.
e, E float; decimal notation of the form [-]m.dddddd e+-xx or[-]m.ddddddE+-xx, where the number of
d’s specified by the precision. The default precision is 6; a precision of 0 suppresses the deci-
mal point.
g, G float; %e or %E is used if the exponent is less than -4 or greater than or equal to the precision;
otherwise %f is used. Trailing zeros and trailing decimal point are not printed.
% no argument is converted; print a %
The arguments that can be passed to the SSI function printf are:
Argument Description

scanf1
This SSI function reads a string passed from an object in a HTML form, interprets the string according
to the specification in format, and stores the result in the output buffer according to the passed argu-
ments. The formatting of the string is equal to the standard C function call scanf()
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’scanf( "ObjName", "format", Arg1, ..., ArgN), ErrVal1,
..., ErrvalN’-->
ObjName - The name of the object with the passed data string
format - Specifies how the passed string shall be formatted
Arg1 - ArgN - Specifies where to write the data
ErrVal1 -ErrValN - Optional; specifies the value/string to write in case of an error.
Character Input data, Argument Type

d Decimal number; byte, short
i Number, byte, short. The number may be in octal (leading 0(zero)) or hexadecimal (leading 0x
or 0X)
o Octal number (with or without leading zero); byte, short
u Unsinged decimal number; unsigned byte, unsigned short
x Hexadecimal number (with or without leading 0x or 0X); byte, short
c Characters; char*. The next input characters (default 1) are placed at the indicated spot. The
normal skip over white space is suppressed; to read the next non-white space character, use
%1s.
s Character string (not quoted); char*, pointing to an array of characters large enough for the
string and a terminating "\0" that will be added.
e, f, g Floating-point number with optional sign, optional decimal point and optional exponent; float*
% Liteal %; no assignment is made.
The conversion characters d, i, o, u and x may be preceded by l (letter ell) to indicate that a pointer to
‘long’ appears in the argument list rather than a ‘byte’ or a ‘short’
The arguments that can be passed to the SSI function scanf are:
Argument Description
OutWriteByte(offset) Writes a byte to position offset in the output buffer
OutWriteWord(offset) Writes a word (short) to position offset in the output buffer
OutWriteLong(offset) Writes a long to position offset in the output buffer
OutWriteString(offset) Writes a string to position offset in the output buffer
OutWriteFloat(offset) Writes a floating point (float) value to position offset in the output buffer
Default output:
Write succeeded
Write failed
For information about changing the default SSI output, see B-8 “Changing the SSI Output”.

GetText1
This SSI function gets the text from an object and stores it in the Output buffer.
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’GetText( "ObjName", OutWriteString ( offset ), n )’-->
ObjName - Name of object.

offset - Specifies the offset from the beginning of the output buffer.
n - Specifies maximum number of characters to read (Optional)
Default output:
Success - Write succeeded
Failure - Write failed
SaveToFile1
This SSI function saves the contents of a passed form to a file. The passed name/value pair will be writ-
ten to the file "File name" separated by the "Separator" string. The contents can either be Appended to
the file or overwrite the current content of the file.
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’SaveToFile( "File name",
"Separator",[Append|Overwrite] )’-->
Default output:
Success - Form saved to file
Failure - Failed to save form
IncludeFile
This SSI function includes the contents of a file on a web page.
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’IncludeFile( "File name" )’-->
Default output:
Success - <File content>
Failure - Failed to open <filename>

Changing the SSI Output

There is two methods of changing the output strings from SSI functions:
1. Changing SSI output defaults by creating a file called "\ssi_str.cfg" containing the output strings
for all SSI functions in the system
2. Temporary changing the SSI output by calling the SSI function "SsiOutput()".
SSI Output String File
If the file "\ssi_str.cfg" is found in the file system and the file is correctly according to the specification
below, the SSI functions will use the output strings specified in this file instead of the default strings.
The files shall have the following format:
[StoreEtnConfig]
Success: "String to use on success"
Invalid IP: "String to use when the IP address is invalid"
Invalid Subnet: "String to use when the Subnet mask is invalid"
Invalid Gateway: "String to use when the Gateway address is invalid"
Invalid Email server: "String to use when the SMTP address is invalid"
Invalid IP or Subnet: "String to use when the IP address and Subnet mask does
not match"
Invalid DNS1: "String to use when the primary DNS cannot be found"
Invalid DNS2: "String to use when the secondary DNS cannot be found"
Save Error: "String to use when storage fails"
Invalid DHCP state: "String to use when the DHCP state is invalid"
[scanf]
Failure: "String to use on failure"
[IncludeFile]
Failure: "String to use when failure" To include filename %s can be included
to the string once
[SaveToFile]
Failure: "String to use on failure" To include filename %s can be included to
the string once
[GetText]
Failure: "String to use on failure"
on the second.
Example:
[File path]
\user\ssi_strings.cfg
In this example, the settings described above will be loaded from the file ‘user\ssi_strings.cfg’.
Temporary SSI Output change
The SSI output for the next called SSI function can be changed with the SSI function "SsiOutput()" The
next called SSI function will use the output according to this call. Thereafter the SSI functions will use
the default outputs or the outputs defined in the file ‘\ssi_str.cfg’. The maximum size of a string is 128
bytes.
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’SsiOutput( "Success string", "Failure string" )’-->
Example:
This example shows how to change the output strings for a scanf SSI call.
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’SsiOutput ( "Parameter1 updated", "Error" )’-->
<?--#exec cmd_argument="scanf( "Parameter1", "%d", OutWriteByte(0) )’-->
Gateway Control
Refreshing Dynamic Gateway Status Information
The system files ‘dynamic.txt’ and ‘master.txt’ (master/scanner configurations only) holds dynamic sta-
tus information from the gateway and the onboard network interfaces. In order to provide accurate in-
formation, these files must be refreshed prior to displaying their contents.
The following SSI command sequence will instruct the gateway to refresh it’s status files:
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’printf( “Data: %u”, MbReadSWord( ID ) )’-->
(Substitute ‘ID’ with a value from the table below)
ID Action
20 Refresh ‘master.txt’
21 Refresh ‘dynamic.txt’
Restarting the Gateway
It is possible to reset the gateway using the following SSI command sequence:
Syntax:
<?--#exec cmd_argument=’printf( “Data: %u”, MbReadSWord( 1 ) )’-->
Appendix C
Ethernet Transport Provider
General Information
The Ethernet interface supports the Transport Provider protocol, which allows a host to control the net-
work interface on the other side of the gateway using the standardized Anybus-S API.
This includes...
• Anybus OPC Server
• Anybus NetTool for DeviceNet
• Anybus NetTool for PROFIBUS
• Custom applications based on the Anybus-S API
(Slave)
(Other network)
(Slave)
Ethernet
(Slave)
OPC Server
(Slave)
Allocation of I/O Data

The Transport Provider uses parts of the Input- and Output Buffers to transfer I/O data. The amount
of data allocated for the Transport Provider is defined as the difference in I/O sizes between the two
network interfaces.
Example:
Transport Provider I/O Size = (I/O Size, Interface A) - (I/O Size, Interface B)
I/O Size, Interface A = 30 bytes
I/O Size, Interface B = 20 bytes
Transport Provider I/O Size = 10 bytes
Interface A Interface B
I/O Size = 30 bytes I/O Size = 20 bytes
This data is available as I/O Data

20 bytes 20 bytes on the Ethernet side (e.g. Modbus/TCP, EtherNet/IP)
10 bytes
This data is transported as I/O Data
10 bytes
through the Ethernet Transport Provider
Note: In case the Transport Provider shall handle the complete I/O image towards the other network,
set the I/O size to 0 (zero) on the Ethernet interface.
