Time Synchronization in the current data system
Time synchronization is supported in the PGC5000 with
Version 3.0.3.12 and later software.
This feature can be implemented either through a Modbus link
direct from the PGC5000 (acting as a Modbus Slave), or from
a connection to the VistaGateway either using an OPC
connection or a Modbus connection.
With an OPC connection, the tag that is connected and
written to by an OPC Client is the following.
Note: OPC connection not available direct from PGC5000.
SetAnalyzerDate
This is a Canonical Date Type 7 (i.e. DATE).
With a Modbus master connection, the time is set by
adding the following entry to the Modbus Map.
Analyzername.SetAnalyzerClock,1.40001.DATE,
This will then reserve 7 registers in the following order.
40001 Hour
40002 Minute
40003 Second
40004 Day of month
40005 Month
40006 Year
40007 Day of week
The time and date information must be written starting with
hour and finished with the day of the week register. The latter
will trigger the setting of time.
Backwards compatibility and legacy interfacing
This interface is supported on the PGC5000 Direct Modbus
TCP from the VistaGateway Modbus Client application, and
OPC server application. If you use a VistaGateway, you only
have to write to one set of registers or OPC tag. If you are
writing direct to the PGC5000 then you must write to each
PGC5000’s Modbus interface because each PGC5000 acts
as a Modbus slave.
If you have legacy instruments (such as the model 3100 or
PGC2000 Series) then you must use a VistaGateway or a
Modbus enabled router. However, the Modbus enabled router
does not support the PGC5000 but you can write through the
Modbus enabled router to the PGC5000 using the Ethernet
switch with the PGC5000 being the actual Modbus slave.
