Release R140
Preface
PREFACE
General
Commissioning is the first step following the installation of the CIU 888.
During commissioning, the CIU 888 site configuration is created and
site elements such as gauges, tanks and the CIU 888 are configured.
When the site is in operation and there are changes, for example a
gauge is added or an additional host system is connected, these
changes need to be implemented, and the CIU 888 needs to be
updated with the new site configuration.
Purpose of this manual

The purpose of this manual is to provide information about the
commissioning and configuration of the CIU 888.
Target audience of this manual

This manual is primarily intended for service technicians who are
responsible for commissioning and configuration of the CIU 888, and for
the migration of an existing CIU 880 Prime/Plus site configuration to the
CIU 888.

the case, contact Honeywell Enraf.
2.3 Setting up the site configuration and generating INI files

When the initial setup of the CIU 888 is completed, the next step is to
set up the site configuration using Ensite Pro. The site configuration can
be set up either by:
 Creating a new site configuration
or
 Copying an existing CIU 880 site configuration and implementing the
required changes so that the site configuration meets one of the
supported topologies of deployment. The supported topologies are
described in section 2.3.1.
2.3.1 Supported topologies of deployment

In case of setting up a site configuration for a CIU 888 in a standalone
system setup, the following topologies of deployment are supported:
 Single CIU Prime connected to a host system (see section 2.3.1.1)
 Single pair of CIU Plus and CIU Prime connected to a host system
(see section 2.3.1.2)
REMARK: If an existing CIU 880 site configuration needs to be migrated, it should also be
in one of the supported configurations listed above before using the site
configuration in the CIU 888. If the existing site configuration is not in one of
these configurations (e.g. a single CIU Plus two CIU Primes or multiple
CIU Pluses and/or CIU Primes configured in the same site database), the site

2-6 CIU 888 $*6
configuration needs to be manually edited to match one of these

configurations. Another option could be to create a copy of the existing site
configuration and then delete the site elements not required to be imported. It
is, of course, necessary that the mechanical and electrical installation is also
adjusted so it will match the changed site configuration.
2.3.1.1 Single CIU Prime
In this topology, a single CIU Prime is connected to a host system (i.e.

DCS, PLC or SCADA system) via one of its two host ports (see
FIGURE 2-7). A configured host port has its own unique RTU address
and enables Modbus RTU on serial communication.
FIGURE 2-7 Schematic representation of a site with a single CIU Prime
A maximum of four field ports are available to connect to gauging

instruments. The field ports can be configured for GPU on Bi-Phase
Mark communication or GPU on serial communication.
NOTE: A single CIU Prime cannot be connected to an Entis Pro host system.

$*6 CIU 888 2-7
2.3.1.2 Single pair of CIU Plus and CIU Prime
In this topology, a single pair of CIU Prime and CIU Plus is connected to
a host system (i.e. Entis Pro) via one of the four host ports of the
CIU Plus (see FIGURE 2-8). A configured host port has its own unique
RTU address and enables Modbus on serial communication.
FIGURE 2-8 Schematic representation of a site with a single pair of CIU Plus and CIU Prime
On the CIU Prime, a maximum of four field ports are available to

connect to tank gauging instruments. The field ports can be configured
for GPU on Bi-Phase Mark communication or GPU on serial
communication.
The CIU Prime and the CIU Plus are connected to one another via one
of the host ports of the CIU Prime and one of the field ports of the
CIU Plus.
2.3.2 Mapping of host ports

Ensite Pro allows users to configure the four CIU Plus host ports and
the two CIU Prime host ports, whereas the CIU 888 features two fixed
host ports and two flexible host ports (i.e. option slots 5 and 6 can be
configured as host port).

2-8 CIU 888 $*6
FIGURE 2-9 shows an example of how the CIU Plus/CIU Prime host
ports are mapped to the CIU 888 host ports in the site configuration.
FIGURE 2-9 Mapping of CIU Prime/CIU Plus host ports to CIU 888 host ports
 CIU Prime host port 1 is ignored

 CIU Prime host port 2 is mapped to CIU 888 fixed host port 2
 CIU Plus host port 1 is mapped to CIU 888 fixed host port 1
 CIU Plus host port 3 is mapped to CIU 888 optional slot 5
CIU emulation (compatible with the CIU 858) can be configured for any
of the CIU 888 host ports. For example: If CIU 888 fixed host port 2
must be enabled for CIU emulation, then in the site configuration
CIU Plus host port 2 must be left unconfigured (as shown in FIGURE 2-

$*6 CIU 888 2-9
9). CIU emulation can be configured via CIU Prime host port 2 (see
FIGURE 2-10).
FIGURE 2-10 Ensite Pro: Edit CIU Prime window - CIU emulation enabled
NOTE: Refer to the Protocol Manual - CIU Emulation (Part No. 4417589) for more
information about CIU Emulation.
2.3.3 Configuration procedure in Ensite Pro

The complete configuration procedure in Ensite Pro consists of the
following steps:
NOTE: For more details, refer to the Instruction manual Ensite Pro Configuration Tool
version 3.0 (Part No. 4416593).
1. Preparation
Before starting with creating and configuring the site, a number of
details must be known, e.g. site layout, information about field
cabling, tag names of site elements (i.e. gauges, tanks and CIUs),
tank information (tank strapping tables or tank capacity tables, roof
details, etc.), information on types of stored product, host
communication setup (if applicable).
2. Creating the site and defining the global settings
The creation of the site allows Ensite Pro to store a configuration set
with a database. The global settings are required for initiating the
configuration database. When the global settings have been defined,
Ensite Pro will create a site database.

Commissioning of a Redundant System Setup
CHAPTER 3 COMMISSIONING OF A REDUNDANT SYSTEM SETUP
Redundancy is a common approach to improve the reliability and

availability of a system. In a redundant CIU 888 system setup, one
CIU 888 (usually the primary CIU 888) has the active role and its
counterpart (usually the secondary CIU 888) has the passive role.
During normal operation, the CIU 888 that has the active role scans the
connected gauges for data and provides the measured and calculated
data to host systems.
If both CIU 888s in a redundant system setup are fully synchronized
and there is a valid condition for a switchover, the CIU 888 that has the
active role assumes the passive role. The CIU 888 that has the passive
role assumes the active role and continues to perform the tasks that
were performed by the CIU 888 that previously had the active role.
Switchover command issued by Entis Pro via Modbus serial is one such
example.
NOTE: Refer to the Protocol Manual - Modbus Host (Part No. 4417588) for more
information about setting up of Modbus host for redundancy.
NOTE: The active CIU 888 can either be the primary CIU 888 or the secondary
CIU 888.
The redundancy status of the CIU 888 (active or passive) is presented

through the following (host) systems:
 Entis Pro via Modbus serial (commands both CIU 888s)
 Other Modbus host systems
 CIU 888 display
The procedure for the commissioning of a redundant CIU 888 system

setup consists of the following steps:
1. Running the initial setup of the primary CIU 888, see section 3.2
2. Setting up the site configuration and generating INI files, see
section 3.3
3. Uploading the site configuration to the primary CIU 888, see
section 3.4
4. Configuring the additional configuration settings of the primary
CIU 888, see section 3.5
5. End commissioning of the primary CIU 888, see section 3.6
6. Commissioning of the secondary CIU 888, see section 3.7
7. Updating the INI files, see section 3.8
loading the updated INI files in Entis Pro, see section 3.9
9. Sealing the CIU 888s, see section 3.10

 Creating a new site configuration
or
 Copying an existing CIU 880 site configuration and implementing the
required changes so that the site configuration meets one of the
supported topologies of deployment. The supported topologies are
described in section 3.3.1.
3.3.1 Supported topologies of deployment

In case of setting up a site configuration for a redundant system setup,
the following topologies of deployment are supported:
 Two pairs of CIU Plus and CIU Prime in a redundant setup, both
pairs connected to one and the same host system (i.e. Ensite Pro),
section 3.3.1.1

$*6 CIU 888 3-3
 Two pairs of CIU Plus and CIU Prime in a redundant setup, each pair
connected to a host system (i.e. Ensite Pro), see section 3.3.1.2
NOTE: If an existing site configuration needs to be migrated, it should also be in one of

the configurations described above before using the site configuration in the
CIU 888. If the existing site configuration is not in one of these configurations
(e.g. a single CIU Plus two CIU Primes or multiple CIU Pluses and/or
CIU Primes configured in the same site database), the site configuration needs
to be manually edited to match one of these configurations. Another option
could be to create a copy of the existing site configuration and then delete the
site elements not required to be imported. It is, of course, necessary that the
mechanical and electrical installation is also adjusted so it will match the
changed site configuration.
3.3.1.1 Redundant pairs of CIU Plus and CIU Prime with a single host system
In this topology, two pairs of CIU Plus and CIU Prime are configured in a
redundant setup with corresponding host ports, field ports, tanks and
gauges. Both pairs are connected to one and the same host system (i.e.
Entis Pro). Each pair is connected to the host system via one of the four
host ports of the CIU Plus.

3-4 CIU 888 $*6
A configured host port has its own unique RTU address and enables
Modbus on serial communication.

connect to tank gauging instruments. The field ports can be configured
for GPU on Bi-Phase Mark communication or GPU on serial
communication.
In each pair, the CIU Prime and the CIU Plus are connected to one
another via one of the host ports of the CIU Prime and one of the field
ports of the CIU Plus.
NOTE: A cross-connection between the two pairs, in which the primary CIU Plus is
connected to the secondary CIU Prime and the secondary CIU Plus is
connected to the primary CIU Prime, is not supported.
3.3.1.2 Redundant pairs of CIU Plus and CIU Prime with redundant host systems
In this topology, two pairs of CIU Plus and CIU Prime are configured in a
redundant setup with corresponding host ports, field ports, tanks and
gauges. Each pair is connected to a separate host system (i.e.

$*6 CIU 888 3-5
Entis Pro). Each pair is connected to the host system via one of the four
host ports of the CIU Plus. A configured host port has its own unique
RTU address and enables Modbus on serial communication.

In each pair, the CIU Prime and the CIU Plus are connected to one
another via one of the host ports of the CIU Prime and one of the field
ports of the CIU Plus.
NOTE: A cross-connection between the two pairs, in which the primary CIU Plus is
connected to the secondary CIU Prime and the secondary CIU Plus is
connected to the primary CIU Prime, is not supported.

3.3.2 Mapping of host ports

FIGURE 3-5 shows an example of how the CIU Plus/CIU Prime host
ports are mapped to the CIU 888 host ports in the site configuration.
NOTE: FIGURE 3-5 only shows the configuration of the primary CIU Plus host ports.
The configuration of the secondary CIU Plus host ports must be identical to the
configuration of the primary CIU Plus host ports.
FIGURE 3-5 Mapping of CIU Prime/CIU Plus host ports to CIU 888 host ports (redundant system)
 CIU Prime host port 1 is ignored

 CIU Prime host port 2 is mapped to CIU 888 optional slot 6
CIU emulation (compatible with the CIU 858) can be configured for any
of the CIU 888 host ports. For example: If CIU 888 fixed host port 2
must be enabled for CIU emulation, then in the site configuration
CIU Plus host port 2 must be left unconfigured (as shown in FIGURE 3-
5). CIU emulation can be configured via CIU Prime host port 2 (see
FIGURE 3-6).
NOTE: FIGURE 3-6 only shows the configuration of primary CIU Prime host port 2.
The configuration of secondary CIU Prime host port 2 must be identical to the

$*6 CIU 888 3-7
configuration of primary CIU Prime host port 2, with the exception of the RTU
address which must be unique.
FIGURE 3-6 Ensite Pro: Edit CIU Prime window - CIU emulation enabled
NOTE: Refer to the Protocol Manual - CIU Emulation (Part No. 4417589) for more
information about CIU Emulation.
3.3.3 Setting up a site configuration for a redundant CIU 888 system setup
Since the procedure for setting up the site configuration for a redundant
system setup is similar to the procedure for setting up the site
configuration for a standalone system setup, this section focuses on the
changes that need to be made when setting up the site configuration of
a redundant system setup.
NOTE: Refer to the Instruction manual Ensite Pro Configuration Tool version 3.0 (Part
No. 4416593) for detailed information about setting up a site configuration
using Ensite Pro.
 The site configuration for a redundant system setup contains two

CIU Primes: a primary CIU Prime and a secondary CIU Prime. The
configuration settings of both CIU Primes must be the same with the
exception of the RTU addresses of the configured host ports. These
must be unique.

3-8 CIU 888 $*6
The Hot Standby enabled option must be selected. The primary

CIU Prime has the secondary CIU Prime as its counterpart, and

APPENDIX A DATA HANDLING
A.1 Engineering units

System engineering units are required for proper rounding of the
internal engineering units. The system engineering units are selected
during the configuration of the CIU 888, but also in a later stadium when
the settings of the CIU 888 are configured (partly or fully) and the
CIU 888 is operational. The CIU 888 Web interface presents the
configuration settings in the selected system engineering units.
The CIU 888 supports the same set of engineering units as supported
by Ensite Pro version 3.0. Furthermore, the CIU 888 supports all the
possible engineering units of each supported gauge type as far as these
are supported by the CIU 880 Prime.
A.2 Data presentation
A.2.1 Decimal and thousand separators
A.2.1.1 Decimal separator
The CIU 888 displays its floating point numeric data with a decimal
separator which is either a dot (default) or a comma. Other characters
are not allowed. A number cannot start nor end with a decimal
separator. So ‘0.2’ is correct, but ‘.2’ is not correct.
NOTE: The decimal separator parameter falls under the W&M seal.
A.2.1.2 Thousand separator
The CIU 888 displays its numeric data with a thousand separator which
is either a dot, a comma (default) or no separator. Other characters are
not allowed. The thousand separator is applied before and after the
decimal separator to group three digits. A number cannot start nor end
with a thousand separator.
NOTE: The thousand separator parameter falls under the W&M seal.
A.2.1.3 Configuring the decimal separator and thousand separator
The decimal separator and thousand separator are both initialized

during setup of the site configuration in Ensite Pro, and are taken from
the settings configured for the PC/laptop running Ensite Pro.

APPENDIX B SCANNING
The main task of the CIU 888 is scanning the connected tank gauging
instruments continuously for the measured values of the connected
devices.
B.1 Scanning Philosophy

CIU 888 incorporates time-based scanning for better scanning
performance. CIU 888 maintains a scan items pool per field port /
sequenced field ports that has the list of scan items to be scanned.
Each scan item is allocated a minimum scan period and a maximum
scan period. Minimum scan period is the minimum expected time
interval at which the scan item must be scheduled in milliseconds and
maximum scan period is maximum time interval within which the scan
item must be scheduled in milliseconds.
Based on the scan periods and current scanning pattern of the scan
items, CIU 888's scanning algorithm picks up the most useful item
among all the scan items configured for a field port and sends it to the
field. In case of sequenced field ports (channel sequencing), CIU 888's
scanning algorithm picks up the most useful item among all the scan
items configured for the field ports that are sequenced.
The following are the various scan items processed by CIU 888.
B.2 Configured Foreground scan items

The CIU 888 scans measurable data inputs (e.g. product level) that are
configured in the foreground scan more often than data inputs
configured in the background scan.
In tank gauging, the most important data to retrieve from gauging
instruments on a tank is the level. The core competency of the scanner
is to update each value on a regular basis. If tank calculation is part of
the solution, a change of each new level value will trigger the
calculations module to recalculate the tank record.
B.3 Configured Background scan items

Measured data inputs that do not change frequently, e.g. the average
temperature of a tank, do not need to be scanned with the same scan
rate as the values that are scanned in the foreground scan.
The CIU 888 scans all measurable data inputs that are configured in the
foreground with a higher priority ((i.e) less minimum and maximum scan
period) than the measurable data inputs that are configured in the
background scan.

$*6 CIU 888 B-1
B.4 Command scan items
When gauge commands are issued from the Host system, gauge
command scan items are added to the scan items pool. Gauge
commands scan items are scheduled with a higher priority ((i.e) less
minimum and maximum scan period) than configured foreground and
background items.
B.5 Service Messages

When service messages are issued from Service tools like Engauge,
service messages are added to the scan items pool. Service messages
are scheduled with a higher priority ((i.e) less minimum and maximum
scan period) than configured foreground and background items.
Adaptive scanning based on field device communication failures:
1. Field device retries are made smarter and spread rather than
configured consecutive retries.
2. If the communication errors are received for the configured number
of retries for a field device, the priority of all the scan items for that
field device will be reduced and retries are skipped until a valid
response is received for that field device.
3. On receiving a valid response from the field, the priority of the field
device is moved to the appropriate level and retry mechanism is
restored.
B.6 Priority Agent

CIU 888 also incorporates a Priority Agent which monitors the product
movement and product level close to Tank High limit and relatively
prioritizes the scan items by modifying the minimum and maximum scan
periods of the scan items so that critical parameters are scanned at a
faster rate compared to the less critical parameters. Priority agent can
be enabled / disabled with a configuration option.
Priority Agent is disabled - CIU 888 scans the field using a static time
based scanning algorithm for foreground and background scan items.
No priority changes happen based on Product movement and Tank
High Monitoring Limit.
Priority Agent is enabled - CIU 888 scans the field using a dynamic time
scanning algorithm based on the Product movement and Tank High
monitoring limit. Scan item's priority changes happen based on Product
movement and Tank High Monitoring Limit. That is, a relative
prioritization is done between static tanks (tanks with no product
movement), dynamic tanks (tanks with product movement), dynamic
tanks in which product level is beyond the configured Tank high
monitoring limit.

B-2 CIU 888 $*6
The following table provides various priority levels incorporated in CIU
888.
Priority Scenario
Very High Product level when it is close to Tank high limit (beyond the
configured Tank high monitoring limit) and product movement is
detected.
High Service messages received over Service Ethernet port
Command scan messages.
Above Normal Product level when detected to be moving in a specific
direction.
Product level when it is close to Tank high limit and no product
movement is detected
Product level when it is close to Tank high limit, and device
communication errors occur irrespective of product movement
being detected / not.
Normal Foreground parameters (e.g. Level) of static tanks i.e. no
product movement is detected.
Product level of tanks where it was moving when device
communication errors occur, Service / emulation messages
received over serial host ports.
Below Normal Background parameters (e.g. Temperature, Density)
Foreground parameters (e.g. Level) of static tanks when device
communication errors occur.
Low Background parameters of tanks when device communication
errors occur.

APPENDIX C REDUNDANCY
C.1 Sync Link and database synchronization

Redundancy between a pair of CIU 888s is realized by synchronizing
the databases of the CIU 888s. Real-time and continuous
synchronization ensures that all recently measured data is available to
both CIU 888s and is required to minimize switch-over time.
To achieve real-time and continuous synchronization, a dedicated
Ethernet connection between the pair of CIU 888s must be established,
called the Sync Link. The Sync Link connection is also used to
determine the actual role of each CIU 888 (active or passive). To
establish the Sync Link connection, the CIU 888s have to be connected
by means of a Cat. 5. Ethernet cable.
In a redundant CIU 888 system setup the following data stores are kept
synchronized:
 Real-time data
 Active gauge commands, including status
 Configuration data
 Operational data (manual overwrites and gauge commands)
 Clock
NOTE: A failure in the Sync Link connection will disable synchronization.
The Sync Link port is located at the back of the CIU 888 (see
FIGURE C-1).
FIGURE C-1 CIU 888: Sync Link port

$*6 CIU 888 C-1
C.2 Supported redundant CIU 888 topologies of deployment
The following redundant CIU 888 topologies of deployment are
supported:
 RS-232 host port redundancy with redundant CIU 888s and host port
redundancy on demand of host system (see section C.2.1)
 RS-232 host port redundancy with redundant CIU 888s and data
synchronization by host system (see section C.2.2)
C.2.1 RS-232 host port redundancy with redundant CIU 888s and host port
redundancy on demand of host system
In this configuration, both CIU 888s in the redundant configuration are
connected to the same host system, i.e. Entis Pro (see FIGURE C-2).
The CIU 888s are connected to the host system via one of their fixed
host ports. Each host port has its own unique RTU address and is
configured for communication through Modbus RTU on serial.
FIGURE C-2 RS-232 Host port redundancy with redundant CIU 888s and host port redundancy on
demand of host system
This configuration is compliant with Entis Pro. By issuing the

appropriate Modbus command, Entis Pro can demand to switch over to
the secondary CIU 888 if the primary CIU 888 is not responding
anymore and move to Com2/Port 42 to acquire tank data. The

C-2 CIU 888 $*6
secondary CIU 888 becomes the active CIU and its host port becomes
R/W.
NOTE: Refer to the chapter ‘CIU Plus Links’ in the Configuration Manual Entis Pro
2.70x for Windows (Part No. 4416381) for more information about connecting
the CIU 888 to the Entis Pro system.
C.2.2 RS-232 host port redundancy with redundant CIU 888s and data
synchronization between host systems
In this configuration, each CIU 888 in the redundant configuration is
connected to a separate host system, i.e. Entis Pro (see FIGURE C-3).
The CIU 888s are connected to the host system via one of their fixed
Host ports. Each host port has its own unique RTU address and is
configured for communication through Modbus RTU on serial. By
connecting each CIU 888 to a separate instance of Entis Pro, an extra
safety is created in the event of failure of one of the two host systems.
FIGURE C-3 RS-232 host port redundancy with redundant pair of CIU 888s and data synchronization
between host systems
This configuration is compliant with Entis Pro. By issuing the

appropriate Modbus command, Entis Pro can demand to switch over to
the secondary CIU 888 if the primary CIU 888 is not responding
anymore and move to Com2/Port 42 to acquire tank data. The
secondary CIU 888 becomes the active CIU and its host port becomes
R/W.
