Introduction Overview
1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
The SPICI800 Enhanced Cnet-to-Computer Interface is a Harmony rack communication interface which consists of an
NIS21 Network Interface module and an IET800 Infinet to Ethernet module. The interface enables communication between
Cnet and a host computer running an engineering tool (e.g. Composer), an HSI (e.g. Symphony Plus Operations), or a
general purpose interface (e.g. Harmony OPC Server).
The IET800 module requires a software license key for proper operation. A SSBIET80000000 (Basic Security
License Key), or SSBIET800A0000 (Advanced Security License Key) must be ordered separately and loaded
into the IET800 module. Without a valid license key, the IET800 module randomly resets itself.
The following figure (Figure 1-1) shows the computer interface:.

The SPICI800 interface is fully compatible with the INFI-NET communication system.
The IET800 is compatible with NIS21 modules only. The IET800 is not authorized for use with NIS01 or NIS11
modules
Figure 1-1: Cnet-to-Computer Interface
1.1.1 Control Network

Cnet is a unidirectional, high speed serial data network that operates at either a two megabaud or a ten-megabaud
communication rate. It supports a central network with up to 250 system node connections. Multiple satellite Cnet networks
can link to a central network. Each satellite network supports up to 250 system node connections. Interfacing a maximum
number of satellite networks gives a system capacity of 62,500 nodes. Redundant Cnet communication capability is
standard.
On the central network, nodes can be bridges to satellite networks, Harmony control units, HSIs, and computers each
connected through a Cnet communication interface. On a satellite network, nodes can be HCU cabinets, HSIs, and
computers.
For this application, the IET800 module interfaces a computer via TCP/IP (Ethernet) or RS-232-C to the Cnet.
1.1.2 Computer
A computer can access Cnet for data acquisition, system configuration, and process control. It connects to Cnet through a
Cnet-to-computer interface. For example, the computer connection to Cnet enables plant personnel to develop and
maintain control configurations, manage the system database, and create HSI displays remotely using Composer™
2VAA000814RevC 1-1
Human System Interface Introduction
engineering tools. There are additional Composer and Performer series tools and applications that can access plant
information through a Cnet-to-computer interface.
1.1.3 Human System Interface

A HSI application such as the Symphony Plus Operations software monitors and controls plant operations from a single
point. It connects to Cnet through a Cnet-to-computer interface. The number of workstations in a Symphony Plus system
varies and depends on the overall control plan and size of a plant. The workstation connection to Cnet gives plant personnel
access to dynamic plant-wide process information, and enables monitoring, tuning, and control of an entire plant process
from workstation color graphics displays and pushbutton keyboard.
1.2 Interface Description

The Cnet-to-computer interface is made up of an NIS21 Network Interface module and an IET800 Infinet to Ethernet
Transfer module (Figure 1-1). The interface allows access to point data over Cnet. The computer connects through either a
RS-232-C serial link at rates up to 115.2 kilobaud or through an Ethernet port. The interface is command driven through
software on the host computer. It receives a command from the host computer, executes it, then replies to the host
computer.
1.2.1 NIS21 Network Interface

The NIS21 Network Interface module is the front end of every Cnet communication interface. It is the intelligent link
between a node and the Cnet network. In this case, it works in conjunction with the IET800 module. The NIS21 module
allows any node to communicate with any other node within the Harmony system.
The NIS21 module is a single printed circuit board that occupies one slot in a MMU. The circuit board contains
microprocessor based communication circuitry that enables it to interface with the IET800 module over a dedicated I/O
expander bus.
Two latching screws on the faceplate secure the NIS21 module to the MMU. There are 16 LEDs on the faceplate that
display error codes and event/error counts and one status LED that indicates the operation status of the module. A
stop/reset button is also provided.
The NIS21 module has three card edge connectors for external signals and power (P1, P2, and P3). Connector P1
connects to common and +5 VDC power. Connector P2 connects the NIS21 module to the I/O expander bus to
communicate with the IET800 module.
The NIS21 module connects to its Cnet communication network through a cable attached between its P3 connector and an
NTCL01 termination unit. Communication between nodes is through coaxial or twinaxial cables that connect the termination
units of each node.
1.2.2 IET800 Infinet to Ethernet Transfer

The IET800 Infinet to Ethernet Transfer module handles all communication with a host computer. The module is command
driven through software on the host computer. The IET800 module receives a command from the host computer, executes
it, then replies. The IET800 module firmware enables the host computer to issue commands for data acquisition, process
monitoring, and process control, and to perform system functions such as security, time-synchronization, status monitoring,
and module configuration. The IET800 module can store up to 30,000 point definitions.
The IET800 module is a single printed circuit board with an Ethernet daughterboard (for Ethernet communication over
TCP/IP) mounted on it. The IET800 module occupies one slot in the MMU. The circuit board contains microprocessor based
communication circuitry that enables it to directly communicate with its NIS21 module by interfacing to the I/O expander
bus.
Two latching screws on the faceplate secure the IET800 module to the MMU. There is a stop/reset pushbutton and a total of
21 LEDs on the faceplate (Figure 4-2). The LEDs are comprised of the following:
• 16 group A and B indicators.

• One red/green status.
• Four Ethernet status (2 per Ethernet port).
The IET800 module has three card edge connectors for external signals and power (P1, P2, and P3). Connector P1
connects to common and +5 VDC power. Connector P2 connects the IET800 module to the I/O expander bus to
communicate with the NIS21 module. Control and data signals connect from the IET800 module to the host computer.
The IET800 module supports either Ethernet through TCP/IP or RS-232-C host computer connection. When
communicating through the RS-232-C port, the module can act as data communication equipment (DCE) or data terminal
equipment (DTE).
1-2 2VAA000814RevC
Introduction Host Computer
For RS-232-C computer interface, the module cable connects to an NTMP01 termination unit and a process bus adapter
(PBA). Two RS-232-C ports are located on the termination unit. The NTMP01 jumper configuration determines DTE or DCE
operation. For the Ethernet computer interface, there are two Ethernet ports located on the IET800 module faceplate.
Currently, only the RJ45 connector labeled CH0 on the front plate of the IET800 is supported and should be used. In this
case, no termination unit is required.
1.2.3 Host Computer

The host computer can connect to the SPICI800 interface in two ways:
• Using CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on the IET800 faceplate to the Ethernet port on
the host computer, Ethernet switch or router.
• From its RS-232-C port to an RS-232-C port of an NTMP01 termination unit. The termination unit cable connects to
the PBA. Two RS-232-C ports are located on the termination unit.
Direct connection to a host computer may require an Ethernet cross-over cable or cross-
over adapter.
1.3 Features
The Cnet-to-computer interface has the following features:
• Cnet provides a plant-wide communication network.
• Cnet provides time-synchronization across the control system plant wide.
• Each node can operate independently of other Cnet nodes.
• Computer interface modules provide localized startup and shutdown on power failure without operator intervention.
• 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface communication rate gives timely information exchange.
• The IET800 module packages process information for maximum transmission efficiency.
• TLS/SSL data encryption option.
• The computer interface modules handle four message types: broadcast, time-synchronization, multicast and NIS
poll.
• All messages contain cyclic redundancy check codes (CRC) and checksums to insure data integrity.

Description and Operation Introduction
2. Description and Operation

2.1 Introduction
This section explains the functionality of the SPICI800 Enhanced Cnet-to-Computer Interface which is to transfer Cnet data
to the host computer. This interface consists of an NIS21 Network Interface module and an IET800 Infinet to Ethernet
Transfer module.
2.2 Module Integrity

All communication modules use Symphony system security functions that ensure module integrity. The module hardware
checks for illegal addresses and monitors the machine fault timer (MFT) and the I/O expander bus clock. If a module
detects an illegal address, it generates a bus error and displays an error code on the faceplate LEDs. If the microprocessor
fails to reset the MFT timer, then it expires. When this happens, the communication module stops and the status LED turns
red.
Module hardware also monitors the I/O expander bus clock. If there is no clock signal, then the module hardware generates
an interrupt causing the module to stop.
2.3 NIS21 Network Interface

The NIS21 module is the communication front end for the computer interface. This section provides an overview of its
operating theory.
2.3.1 Messages
The NIS21 module processes four different message types. They are broadcast, time-synchronization, multicast, and NIS
poll.
2.3.1.1 Broadcast
A node generates a broadcast message when sending information to all system nodes. Typically, these messages
announce changes in node status.
Broadcast messages include:

• Node online.
• Node offline.
• Node restart.
• Node busy.
2.3.1.2 Time-Synchronization
The time-synchronization message is a high priority broadcast type of message. The NIS21 module services this message
type immediately. Time-synchronization provides a common system time base to be used for sequencing exception reports,
accessing trend data, and display on an HSI such as a workstation running Symphony Plus Operations.
2.3.1.3 Multicast
A message that contains data for multiple destinations is a multicast message. This message can have from one to 64
destinations.
2.3.1.4 NIS Poll

The NIS poll message is a single destination message. The NIS21 module uses this message type to request the
operational status of another node.
2.3.1.5 Message Format

Messages exist as frames of information. Each frame consists of a message control field that follows an information field.
The information field contains the message data. It can consist of multiple messages and vary in size to a maximum of
1,500 bytes. The control field contains time of origination, sequence, source, size, circulation count, message type,
destinations, and checksum.
The NIS21 module increments the circulation count field of all incoming messages. When a message count field exceeds
255, the message is discarded. This is useful in keeping retry and spurious message traffic to a minimum. The NIS21
module uses the message type to determine how to process the message. The checksum and cyclic redundancy check
code fields verify data integrity.
2VAA000814RevC 2-1
Data Integrity Description and Operation
2.3.1.6 Message Transmission

Any NIS21 module can transmit a message at any time without regard to the activities of any other NIS21 module on the
Cnet network. Each NIS21 module can transmit and receive messages simultaneously. Startup and shutdown is local and
requires no interaction with other NIS21 modules on the network. Each module receives all incoming messages and
transmits a new stream of messages in a store and forward fashion to the next node. When there are no messages for the
NIS21 module to transmit, the module transmits flag characters (null packets) as the loop synchronizing condition to keep
the receivers in lock.
2.3.2 Data Integrity

There are three methods by which the NIS21 module insures data integrity. They are retry logic, node status table, and
polling.
2.3.2.1 Retry Logic

If, on the first transmission of a message, the NIS21 module does not receive positive acknowledgment from the destination
node, then it retransmits the message up to 11 times. If after this series of retries there is still no response, then the
destination node is marked offline.
2.3.2.2 Node Status Table

The NIS21 module maintains an internal table of system wide node status such as offline and busy. The NIS21 module
relays node status changes to the IET800 module. When the NIS21 module periodically polls nodes, it updates this table
accordingly.
2.3.2.3 Polling
The NIS21 module uses the information in its status table for polling purposes. As it scans the status table, it picks out
destinations targeted for multicast messages that have been marked offline or busy. After polling the destination, the NIS21
module updates its table and forwards pertinent information to the IET800 module.
2.4 IET800 Infinet to Ethernet Transfer

The IET800 module handles all communication with the host computer using either TCP/IP over Ethernet or RS-232-C
communication. The RS-232-C serial port may be configured for data communication equipment (DCE) or data terminal
equipment (DTE). The jumper configuration on the NTMP01 termination unit determines DTE or DCE operation.
The IET800 module memory is capable of storing up to 30,000 point definitions. The module firmware enables the host
computer to issue commands for data acquisition, process monitoring and control, and system functions such as security,
time, and configuration control. The module maintains the point table and interprets commands coming from the host
computer. It directs all interaction between the host computer and the Cnet network.
The NIS21 module receives frames from Cnet and passes them on to the IET800 module via the I/O expander bus for
processing. The IET800 module receives data from Harmony controllers over Cnet; then sorts, organizes, and stores the
data in a database until the host computer is ready for the data. This buffering action allows the host computer to operate
completely asynchronously to the Cnet network. When the host computer is ready to process more data, it issues a
command to the IET800 module which then forwards the data as a reply.
2.5 Computer Interface Commands

The IET800 module receives a command from a host computer, performs the desired action, and then replies to the host
computer. The computer interface uses over 80 commands for data acquisition, process monitoring and control, and system
functions (security, time, and configuration control). These commands fall into four basic command types: data acquisition,
configuration, process control, and system status.
2.5.1 Data Acquisition

The host computer uses the ESTABLISH POINT and ESTABLISH REPORT commands to establish a database in the
IET800 module. This database has the capacity for 30,000 points. The host computer has access to the module database
through data acquisition commands. Any trend block configured in the system can be read using the TREND DATA POLL
command.
2.5.2 Configuration
The computer interface can be used to download control configurations to Harmony controllers. Also, the TUNE BLOCK
and READ BLOCK OUTPUT commands are used to tune and monitor outputs.
2-2 2VAA000814RevC
Description and Operation Process Control
2.5.3 Process Control

Computer interface commands provide process control abilities for the host computer. Using these commands, the host
computer is able to handle analog and digital process requirements such as changing set points and control outputs,
supplying data values as exception reports, controlling, and setting digital remote switches and constants.
2.5.4 System Status

Time-synchronization is a critical function of the computer interface and part of overall status. It enables the host computer
to set and display system time and date, and provides a mechanism for relating the time-stamp to system time and date.
The host computer is able to monitor individual module statuses and provide password protection.

Installation Introduction
3. Installation
3.1 Introduction
This section explains the steps necessary to install the modules of an SPICI800 Enhanced Cnet-to-Computer Interface:
NIS21 Network Interface and the IET800 Infinet to Ethernet Transfer.
3.2 Special Handling

Observe these steps when handling electronic circuitry:
Always use ABB’s field static kit (part number 1948385A1 - consisting of two wrist straps, ground
cord assembly, alligator clip, and static dissipating work surface) when working with the
modules. The kit is designed to connect the technician and the static dissipating work surface to
the same ground point to prevent damage to the modules by electrostatic discharge.
1. Use Static Shielding Bag: Keep the modules in the static shielding bag until you are ready to install them in the
system. Save the packaging for future use.
2. Ground Bags before Opening: Before opening a bag containing an assembly with semiconductors, touch it to
the equipment housing or a ground to equalize charges.
3. Avoid Touching Circuitry: Handle assemblies by the edges; avoid touching the circuitry.
4. Avoid Partial Connection of Semiconductors: Verify that all devices connected to the module are properly
grounded before using them.
5. Ground Test Equipment:
6. Use Antistatic Field Service Vacuum: Remove dust from the module, if necessary.
7. Use a Grounded Wrist Strap: Connect the wrist strap to the appropriate grounding plug on the power entry
panel. The grounding plug on the power entry panel is connected to the cabinet chassis ground.
8. Do Not Use Lead Pencils to Set Dipswitches: To avoid contamination of dipswitch contacts that can result in
unnecessary circuit board malfunction, do not use a lead pencil to set a dipswitch.
3.3 Unpacking and Inspection

Follow the given steps to unpack and inspect the module:
1. Examine the hardware immediately for shipping damage.
2. Notify the nearest ABB sales office of any such damage.
3. File a claim for any damage with the transportation company that handled the shipment.
4. Use the original packing material and container to store the hardware.
5. Store the hardware in an environment of good air quality, free from temperature and moisture extremes.
3.4 SPICI800 Wiring and Cabling

Figure 3-1 shows a wiring and cabling diagram for the SPICI800 interface. Refer to this figure when installing and
connecting the interface modules.
Currently, only the RJ45 connector labeled CH0 on the front plate of the IET800 is supported and should
be used.

The Cnet-to-computer interface requires an NIS21 Network Interface module. Dipswitches and jumpers must be set before
putting the module into operation. Figure 3-2 shows the dipswitch and jumper locations on the module.
2VAA000814RevC 3-1

This dipswitch sets the number of the loop on which the computer interface resides. Valid loop numbers are one through
250 (refer to Table 3-2). Record the dipswitch SW2 setting in the space provided.
3.5.1.3 NIS21 Dipswitch SW3 - Loop Mode

Dipswitch SW3 enables or disables ROM checksums, identifies the operating mode as a Cnet-to-computer interface, and
sets the communication speed to two megabaud or ten megabaud (refer to Table 3-3). Record the dipswitch SW3 settings
in the space provided.
Pole 1:
Dipswitch SW3 pole one determines IET800 module compatibility. Set pole one to closed (on) for a computer interface.
Pole 2:
Pole two enables or disables ROM checksumming. ABB recommends that the NIS21 module be installed with
checksumming enabled to take full advantage of the on-board diagnostics.
Pole 3/4:
Pole three enables internal testing which must be disabled for normal operation. Pole four, in conjunction with pole three,
makes the node appear to be busy to other nodes. This condition is used by ABB personnel only.
2VAA000814RevC 3-3
Pole 5:
Pole five enables the channel idle condition display for the front panel LEDs. If channel one is idle, then the group A LEDs
flashes on and off about twice per second. If channel two is idle, then the group B LEDs flash. The channel idle display
serves as a warning that a loop integrity problem exists.
Pole 6:
Pole six enables diagnostic tests that preclude normal NIS21 module operation.
Pole 7/8:
Poles seven and eight determine loop speed and loop mode.
Testing modes involving poles three, four, and six interfere with normal operation.

and verifies the presence of loop traffic. This diagnostic test is
scheduled to run 24 hours after the NIS21 module is
connected to an offline IET800 module. This test is executed
and is rescheduled to be executed the same time every day.
Testing is halted when the IET800 module goes online. When
the IET800 module goes offline, testing is resumed on the
original schedule. If the connection between the IET800 and
NIS21 modules is broken (if the NIS21 module is reset), then
the testing schedule is deleted and the NIS21 module
behaves as though it was never connected to the IET800
module. When the connection is restored, the NIS21 module
behaves as though it was connected for the first time.
0 Disables the offline module termination unit test.

Recommended setting.
Enabling offline module termination unit testing may cause a slight degradation of loop
performance.
The NIS21 module can have an I/O expander bus address from zero to three. Poles two and three of dipswitch SW4 set the
I/O expander bus address of the module. Refer to Table 3-5 for I/O expander bus address settings.
Poles four through eight set the address of the on-board event and error counters that the NIS21 module displays using the
group A and B faceplate LEDs. LED B8 is the most significant bit. LED A1 is the least significant bit. Table 3-6 lists the
possible event counter addresses. Table 3-7 lists the possible error counter addresses. Record the dipswitch SW4 settings
in the space provided.
Example of Counter Usage:
2VAA000814RevC 3-5

3.5.3 NIS21 Module Installation

If the NIS21 dipswitches and jumpers are properly configured, then it is ready to be installed in the MMU. Refer to Figure 3-
1 for cable connections.
Follow the given steps to install the module:

1. Verify the module slot assignment in the MMU.
Disconnect power before installing dipshunts on the MMU backplane. Failure to do so will
result in contact with cabinet areas that could cause severe or fatal shock.
2. Verify that a 24-pin dipshunt is installed in the I/O expander bus sockets between the MMU slot used by the
NIS21 module and the slot used by the IET800 module.
3. Remove any 24-pin dipshunts from the I/O expander bus sockets that connects the NIS21 module to any
module, other than the IET800 module.

NIS21 module.
5. Slide the NIS21 module in while guiding the top and bottom edges of the circuit board along the top and bottom
rails of the MMU.
6. Push on the faceplate until the rear edge of the module is firmly seated in the backplane connector.
7. Turn the two latching screws ½-turn to lock the module in place.
The module is locked into place when the open side of the slot on the latching screws faces the center of the
faceplate.
Refer to Appendix A- NTCL01 Termination Unit of this user manual for detailed information on termination device unit.
3.5.4 Power System Status

The communication system provides a means to monitor the status of the power system of each node. This status
information can be displayed on an HSI. Electronics within the power entry panel monitor the power system status. A single
status output is made available to the communication system. To use this feature, wire the status output to the terminal
block on the NTCL01 termination unit labeled PSS1 or PSS2. Two sets of terminals are available on the termination unit for
interconnecting the power system status output.
This power system status signal is fed through the termination unit cable to the P3 connector on the NIS21 module. The
power system status input is a TTL-compatible signal. A high voltage level (5 VDC) on power system status indicates good
status. A low voltage level (0 VDC) indicates bad status. When no connection is made to either of the power system status
inputs, a pull-up resistor on the NIS21 module causes a high level signal on the power system status input, thereby
reporting good status.
The status of the power system is also reported in the IET800 module status bytes.

Installation IET800 Infinet to Ethernet Transfer

The Enhanced Cnet-to-computer interface requires an IET800 Infinet to Ethernet Transfer module. Dipswitches, jumpers,
and a dispshunt must be set before putting the module into operation. Figure 3-4 shows the dipswitch and jumper locations
on the module.
Figure 3-4: IET800 Board Layout
NOTE: The IET800 module can be installed in current Harmony/Infi90 Module Mounting Units as well as Network90
Module Mounting Units used in earlier control systems. The Network90 MMU backplanes included a -30VDC faston to
satisfy the memory initialization requirements of some Network90 modules. If you install the IET800 module in one of the
earlier Network90 Module Mounting Units, to prevent damage to the IET800, then care must be taken to ensure that the
-30VDC faston on the backplane does not have -30VDC applied to it. Refer to sub-section 3.7.1- Pre-Installation Check
of this user manual for instructions on how to identify the type of MMU selected for the IET800 installation.

3.7 IET800 Module Installation

After the IET800 module is properly configured, it is ready to be installed in the MMU. Refer to Figure 3-1 for cable
connections.
To avoid potential module damage, evaluate your system for compatibility prior to module
installation. This module uses connections to the MMU backplane that served other
functions in early Network 90 systems.
Module placement within the MMU is important when installing an IET800 module. Installing the IET800 module requires
one of two adjacent slots in a MMU. The second slot is used for the NIS21.
3.7.1 Pre-Installation Check

Follow the given steps to determine, if the MMU uses -30 VDC:
1. View the MMU selected for IET800 installation from the rear and look at the left side of the backplane circuit
board.
If the second faston from the top is labeled ‘-30’, then proceed with Step 2 and Step 3. If the second faston from
the top is not labeled ‘-30’, then proceed to section 3.7.2- Installation of this user manual.
2. Check for -30 VDC with respect to system common at the -30 VDC faston.
3. Set the jumper J8 of the IET800 module to the appropriate positions, if-30 VDC is present
3.7.2 Installation
Follow the given steps to install the IET800 module:
Disconnect power before installing dipshunts on the MMU backplane. Failure to do so will
result in contact with cabinet areas that could cause severe or fatal shock.
1. Verify that a 24-pin dipshunt is installed in the I/O expander bus sockets between the MMU slot used by the
NIS21 module and the slot used by the IET800 module.
2. Remove any 24-pin dipshunts from the I/O expander bus sockets that connects the SPICI800 interface modules
to any module, other than those that build the SPICI800 interface.
Step 3 is only required for IET800 serial port applications.
3. Attach the hooded end of the NKTU01 or NKTU11 cable to the PBA on the IET800 module in the MMU, if using
serial port communications.

4. Attach the other end of the cable to the NTMP01 termination unit (Figure 3-1).
5. Ensure that the latch screws are in the unlocked position (open ends facing away from the module).
6. Slide the IET800 module in while guiding the top and bottom edges of the circuit boards along the top and
bottom rails of the MMU.
7. Attach the CAT5/5e/6 Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector on the front of the IET800 front plate, if using
Ethernet communication.
8. Attach the other end of the cable to the Ethernet connector on the host computer, Ethernet switch, or Ethernet
router (Figure 3-1).
Currently, only the RJ45 connector labeled CH0 on the front plate of the IET800 is
supported and should be used.
Direct connection to a host computer may require a special Ethernet cross-over cable or
cross-over adapter
9. Push on the faceplate until the rear edges of the modules are firmly seated in the backplane connectors.

Operating Procedures Introduction
4. Operating Procedures
4.1 Introduction
After installation, the Cnet-to-computer interface modules are ready to be put into operation. This section provides the
necessary information for daily operation of the modules.
The IET800 module requires a software license key for proper operation. A SSBIET80000000 (Basic Security
License Key), or SSBIET800A0000 (Advanced Security License Key) must be ordered separately and loaded
into the IET800 module. Without a valid license key, the IET800 module randomly resets itself.

The following figure (Figure 4-1) shows the NIS21 module front plate:
Figure 4-1: NIS21 Front plate
On power up, the NIS21 module microprocessor firmware starts and executes self-diagnostic routines. The NIS21 module
comes online in the network mode set by poles seven and eight of dipswitch SW3, with the type of counter display set by
poles four through eight of dipswitch SW4.
Use the counter display (front plate LEDs) to check the NIS21 module operation. If communication errors occur, then the
host module sets the NIS21 module communication status bits in the module status. View the status of the host module by
reading the host module status bits using an HSI, engineering tool, etc.
4.2.1 Status LED

The status LED is a two-color LED (red and green) that displays the operating status of the NIS21 module. It has two
possible states. Table 4-1 lists the meaning of the status LED states. Refer to section 5- Troubleshooting of this user manual
for corrective actions, if the status LED indicates that an error exists.
Table 4-1: Status LED States (NIS21)
LED State Description

Solid green Module is online and operational.
Solid red NIS module is in reset or diagnostics detected a

hardware failure or configuration problem. Group A and B
LEDs display an error code when the status LED is red.
2VAA000814RevC 4-1
Event Counters Operating Procedures
4.2.2 Event Counters

Internal counters maintain a count of events such as the number of messages transmitted, retries, and number of
messages lost. Table 3-6 has a complete list of event counters. The group A and B LEDs on the module front plate display
a binary value of the event counters (LED B8 is the most significant bit, LED A1 is the least significant bit). Figure 4-1 shows
the location of the group A and group B LEDs.
4.2.3 Error Counters and Codes

Errors such as receive errors, messages with circulation count errors, etc., are maintained in internal counters just like the
event counters. Refer to Table 3-7 for a listing of error counter address settings. Table 5-1 lists the error codes that appear
on the NIS21 module front plate LEDs after the NIS module detects a critical error and stops operation.
4.2.4 Stop/Reset
The Stop/Reset button should not be used to stop the NIS21 module. Instead, use the IET800 modules Stop/Reset button
to provide an orderly shutdown of both modules.

The front plate of the IET800 module has the following features (Figure 4-2):
• Red/green status LED
• 16 CPU LEDs
• Stop/Reset pushbutton
• Two Ethernet ports with two LEDs on each port
• Redundancy link connector (future)

Operating Procedures Red/Green Status LED
4.3.1 Red/Green Status LED

The status LED is bi-colored (red and green) and displays the operating status of the IET800 module. It has three possible
Figure 4-2: IET800 Front View
states. Table 4-2 lists the meaning of the status LED states. Refer to section 5- Troubleshooting of this user manual for
corrective actions, if the status LED indicates that an error exists.
Table 4-2: Red/Green Status LED States (IET800)
LED State Description

Off No power.
Solid green Module has completed its startup and is operational.

Solid red Module is in reset or diagnostics detected a hardware
failure or configuration problem. CPU LEDs display an
error code when the status LED is red.
4.3.2 CPU LEDs

There are two groups of eight CPU LEDs. Green group B LEDs 1-8 display a moving pattern to indicate the module is
functioning. Red group A LEDs 1-4, during normal operation, keep count of the commands received from the host
computer. Red group A LEDs display online/offline status. If an error occurs, these LEDs display an error code and the
Status LED turns red. Refer to Table 5-2 for a list of CPU LED error codes and associated corrective actions.
4.3.3 Stop/Reset
Push the Stop/Reset pushbutton once and wait for the status LED to turn red before removing an IET800 module from the
MMU. Pressing the stop/reset pushbutton again causes the restoration of the IET800 module to power up values after a
halt. It is also used to recover from an operator-initiated stop or a module time-out.
4.3.4 Ethernet Interface LEDs

There are two Ethernet status LEDs on each RJ-45 Ethernet connector. The top LED is green (network activity) and the
bottom LED is yellow (network status).
When illuminated, the yellow LED indicates that the Ethernet interface has been initialized and that an active Ethernet
(carrier) signal is present on the connected network cable. Also, when the yellow LED is illuminated, the green LED flashes
momentarily indicating that a network message is received from the connected network.
2VAA000814RevC 4-3
Operating Modes Operating Procedures
4.3.5 Operating Modes

The IET800 module has three modes of operation:
• Online
• Offline
• Error.
4.3.5.1 Online
Online mode is the normal mode of operation. In this mode, the host computer and Cnet network (or INFI-NET system)
interact through the SPICI800. The interface firmware permits the configuration of the SPICI800 interface and Harmony
controllers as instructed from the host computer. Refer to the Symphony Plus Function Code Applications Manual for more
information on controller configuration.
The IET800 module, while in online mode, can:

• Establish and maintain exception report point database
• Issue control commands requested by the host application
• Download, modify, and tune control applications
• Perform routine system security functions
4.3.5.2 Error
The IET800 module enters error mode, if the internal system diagnostic routines detect a hardware or execution error. If the
module detects an error, then the module halts and displays an error code on the CPU LEDs. Refer to section 5-
Troubleshooting of this user manual for corrective actions when the IET800 module enters the error mode.
4.3.6 Integrity Functions

The IET800 module performs both hardware and software security checks to insure module integrity.
4.3.6.1 Hardware Checks

The IET800 module performs the following hardware checks:
• Illegal Address Detection: Detecting an illegal CPU address generates a bus error and the module halts
operation.
• Machine Fault Timer: The microprocessor updates the machine fault timer. A machine fault time-out halts module
operation.
4.3.6.2 Software Checks

The IET800 module performs the following software checks:
• Module Diagnostics: The module diagnostic routines execute automatically on system powerup. If the diagnostic
tests fail, then the front plate LEDs display error conditions, the status LED goes red, and the module operation
halts.
• ROM Checksum: The ROM checksum test verifies checksums of the ROM memory. Discrepancies cause the
module status LED to go solid red and the module operation halts.
4.3.6.3 IET800 Communication Security

In order to safeguard the integrity and privacy of the network communication between the client application and IET800, the
IET800 supports the optional use of the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) data encryption
protocols. Select the Advanced Security Level option during IET800 configuration to enable SSL and TLS security.
SSL and its successor TLS are cryptographic protocols that provide a high level of security during communications between
client and server applications. These cryptographic protocols prevent network traffic eavesdropping, tampering, and
message forgery. TLS and SSL also support endpoint authentication, thus allowing the client application to verify the
identity of the server endpoint (IET800).
The IET800 supports Transport Layer Security version 1 and its predecessor, Secure Socket Layer version 3. To ensure a
high degree of security, the IET800 does not permit communications to be established with clients other than authorized
ABB applications.
4-4 2VAA000814RevC
Operating Procedures Utilities
Within the IET800's communication stack, TLS/SSL reside between the Harmony Application Interface and the TCP/IP
communication protocol. Figure 4-3 shows the security communication scheme within Harmony API software and the
IET800.
Figure 4-3: TLS/SSL secure communications
Due to this partitioning, the use of TLS/SSL is completely managed within the Harmony API interface. Therefore,
applications using the Harmony API interface, with or without TLS/SSL security enabled, need only make standard
Harmony API calls.
The Harmony API Client (HAPI) is embedded into Composer (version 5.1 and higher) and
other ABB product applications. The HAPI client must be running in order for these
applications to communicate with an IET800.
The TLS/SSL security used in the HAPI client requires that a client TLS/SSL certificate be installed on the host computer. If
this certificate fails to install or is corrupted, then TLS/SSL secure communications are affected. Refer to sub-section
5.5.1- Harmony API TLS/SSL Security of this user manual for more information on restoring a missing security certificate.
4.4 Utilities
The Utilities menu is available by attaching a diagnostic monitor to port eleven (P11) of the IET800 module. Enable this
option through the IET800 module dipswitches.
4.4.1 Computer Command/Reply Sequences

When you select the Computer Command/Reply Sequence option, it allows the computer interface to echo computer
commands and replies in hexadecimal format on the terminal. Commands on the serial port are preceded by a ‘CS’; replies
on the serial port are preceded by an ‘RS’. Commands on the Ethernet port are preceded by a ‘CE’, and replies on the
parallel port are preceded by an ‘RE’. Press ‘3’ to toggle this feature on and off.
The following figure (Figure 4-4) shows an example of a restart command followed by a demand module status command:.

The IET800 firmware contains diagnostic routines that can be invoked during module power up. These routines verify the
proper operation of the module’s components and circuitry. Putting the module in the diagnostic mode allows the module to
perform a variety of diagnostic tests but suspends normal operation.
Therefore, use it during installation to check module integrity, when the system is down, or transfer system control to a slot
away from any communications bus associated with live I/O to check a currently operating module. Refer to sub- section

5.8.1 Diagnostic Testing Overview

Use the module’s dipswitches to select the required diagnostic routine. Diagnostic test results display on the module’s front
panel LEDs. Both group and individual tests may be executed. The typical procedure is to select a diagnostic routine
to execute, set the module dipswitches accordingly, reset the module, and observe the results on the faceplate LEDs. If the
halt on error feature is disabled, then the selected test runs repeatedly until the module is reset and another test is selected.
If halt on error feature is enabled, the test stops and the LEDs display the failure. A NIS21 is required for I/O expander bus
communication tests.
Follow the given steps to test I/O expander bus communications:

1. Set the SW5 dipswitch on the NIS21 module to the settings in Table 5-7.
NOTE: All other dipswitches must be set to 0, or closed for all poles.
Table 5-7: NIS21 Module Setup for I/O Expander Bus Test
Pole
Module Dipswitch
1234 5678
NIS21 SW5 10001 0001
NOTE: 0 = closed or on, 1 = open or off.
2. Insert the NIS21 in the same MMU as in the IET800 module.
NOTE: There must be continuity between the NIS21 and IET800 module on the I/O expander bus (I/O
expander bus dipshunts must be inserted between the NIS21 and the module).
5.8.2 Diagnostic Test Selection

Pole one of dipswitch SW1 must be set to the open (off) position to put the IET800 module into the diagnostic mode. The
remaining poles on dipswitch SW1 are used to select the module address and communication bus mode. These poles
should remain in their normal operating position. Use dipswitch SW2 to select diagnostic tests.
The following table (Table 5-8) defines the function of each pole of dipswitches SW2 and SW1:

NOTE: 0 = closed or on, 1 = open or off.
On dipswitch SW2, poles three through eight select the diagnostic test. Pole eight is the least significant bit (binary weight
one); pole three is the most significant bit (binary weight 32). Refer to Table 5-6 for test ID values. Pole one selects a special
operations feature. When enabled, the module halts test execution whenever the selected test detects an error. The
number of the failing test is displayed on the group A LEDs (Figure 5-3). The group B LEDs display the pass/fail count.
Refer to Table 5-6 for a description of each diagnostic test.
Figure 5-3: LEDs - Pass/Fail
5.8.3 Diagnostic Testing LED Display

Group A LEDs (Figure 5-3) are used during diagnostic mode operation to display test results.
On module reset, all front panel LEDs turn on. Next, the module reads the dipswitches, executes the selected test, and
displays the result on the group A and B LEDs. Group A LEDs display the test number on LEDs one through six. If LED
eight is on, then the test fails. The display is latched on for 14-second for viewing ease, then the LEDs blank out for about
1
8-second, and the test is repeated. Group B LEDs display a running tally of successes and failures. LEDs one through four
tally the passes; LEDs five through eight tally the failures.
If a test fails with the Halt On Failure selected (dipswitch SW2, pole one on), then the status LED turns red. The test number
that failed is displayed on the group A LEDs.
For group tests (10, 20), each test is run in numerical order. On a failure, group A LED eight flashes and LEDs one through
six display the test number that failed. When all tests in the group are done, the error count increments and displays on the
group B LEDs.

IET800 to Computer Interface Setup Introduction
9. IET800 to Computer Interface Setup

9.1 Introduction
For an IET800 module to communicate with a computer, the communications settings for client applications like Composer
or an HSI must be configured. The Harmony System Configuration (hSysCfg) program is used to configure communications
with the IET800. This section explains how to configure the IET800 using the hSysCfg software program.
The program executable, hSysCfg.exe, is located in the C:\Program Files\ABB Symphony Plus\Engineering\Harmony
API\EXE (by default - user may change the location during installation) subdirectory. During the Composer installation
process a shortcut to hSysCfg.exe is created in the Windows Start Menu; Start > Programs > ABB Symphony Plus > >
Engineering > HarmonyAPI > ABB Harmony System Configuration Utility. Click on the shortcut or use Windows Explorer to
navigate to the hSysCfg.exe executable file (double click on the file) to start the program.
The hSysCfg program contains product version information that can be found by right-clicking the hSysCfg.exe file,
choosing Properties, and then select the Version tab. The product version information is in the format ww.xx.yyy where:
ww Major version
xx Minor version
yyy Build number
This information may be needed when performing upgrades or reporting issues with hSysCfg.
The IET800 supports Ethernet or RS-232 communications. The following sub-sections explain the configuration using either
of these connection types.
NOTE: The hSysCfg program also supports configuring INICT modules that use a SCSI interface. Configuring SCSI
interfaces is not described in this document. Refer to the hSysCfg help file or Composer Harmony Primary Interface user
manual for SCSI interface configuration.
9.2 Harmony System Configuration

The hSysCfg program allows users to configure up to twenty “logical ICIs”. A Logical ICI is a group of settings that define a
physical connection used to communicate to a physical ICI and the CNet.
Each COM port, or TCP/IP:Channel may be assigned to a logical ICI that may then be selected by client applications. Client
applications, like Composer, use the logical ICI to select which physical ICI device to use for communication with the
IET800 or other Harmony modules.
To get full benefit of the IET800 module, the Ethernet TCP/IP connection must be used whenever possible. If a serial
connection to Composer Harmony with multiple clients is required, then additional steps are necessary to set up the
communication server. Refer to Composer Harmony Primary Interface user manual for procedure on how to setup the
communication server.
The hSysCfg screen is divided into three areas or frames, the Logical to Physical Connection frame, a Connection Type
frame, and a Command Button frame. Figure 9-1 shows the location of the frames within the hSysCfg dialog box.
2VAA000814RevC 9-1
Logical to Physical Connection Frame IET800 to Computer Interface Setup
Figure 9-1: hSysCfg dialog box frames
The following is an explanation of each field found in the hSysCfg frames.
9.2.1 Logical to Physical Connection Frame

• The Application Logical ICI field: It is used to select the logical ICI to be configured. Select a number from the
Application Logical ICI drop down box. The number serves as an identifier that the client application uses to select
a specific physical ICI connection on a specific node. There are 20 possible computer interface configurations
available from the drop down box. Click the Application Logical ICI arrow to see a listing of logical ICIs. When a
previously configured logical ICI is selected, the hSysCfg program displays all existing settings for that logical ICI.
• The Connection Description field: It is used to associate a text string with the Application Logical ICI number. A
separate text string describing each connection may be entered. Maximum string length is 99 alphanumeric
characters. When the Application Logical ICI dropdown menu is selected, any previously configured logical ICIs
contains the Connection Description appended to the logical ICI number shown in the dropdown list. The
Connection Description helps to quickly identify the logical ICI requiring configuration.
The description input into this field will appear in the Application Logical ICI field after
clicking Apply > Quit and then restarting the hSysCfg program.
• The Physical ICI Device field: It is used to define the type of physical device to be connected. Click the Physical
ICI Device arrow for a listing of available options.
• The Physical Connection Type field: It is used to define the network communication protocol to be used by client
applications when using the logical ICI. When a COM port is selected for the Physical ICI Device, the Physical
Connection Type is set automatically to SERIAL. Likewise, SCSI devices use a SCSI Physical Connection Type
and Ethernet interfaces use TCP/IP as the Physical Connection Type. The IET800 can be configured to use either
SERIAL or TCP/IP. More than one logical ICI can be defined to communicate with the same physical computer
interface using different network communication protocols.
If different communications parameters are used for the same physical interface in
multiple logical ICIs, communication to the CNet may not work if these logical ICIs are
used simultaneously by two or more applications

Firmware Upgrade Introduction
C. Firmware Upgrade
C.1 Introduction
A firmware upgrade is performed only when a new version of the firmware is released to fix issues with the IET800 module.
The IET800 firmware must be loaded with a direct serial (RS232) connection to a computer with terminal emulator software.
Always use ABB’s field static kit (part number 1948385A1 - consisting of two wrist straps,
ground cord assembly, alligator clip, and static dissipating work surface) when working
with Harmony modules. The kit is designed to connect the technician and the static
dissipating work surface to the same ground point to prevent damage to the modules by
electrostatic discharge.
C.2 IET800 Serial Port - Firmware Download Procedure

Firmware is downloaded through the serial (RS232 diagnostic) port on the IET800 module (9-pin D connector on the
module circuit board behind the faceplate).
Follow the given steps to upgrade the firmware on the IET800 module:
To avoid potential module damage from happening, read the firmware upgrade steps first
before performing them.
1. Push the Stop/Reset pushbutton once and wait for the status LED to turn red before you remove the IET800
module from the MMU.
2. Connect a computer containing the new firmware and a terminal emulation program (a third-party program, such
as TeraTerm, which is not supplied by ABB) to the IET800 module’s diagnostic port using a serial cable.
The terminal emulation program must be capable of performing a file transfer using
XModem protocol.
3. Invoke the terminal emulation program and configure the communication port for 115.2K baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop
bit, No parity, and no handshaking.
4. Select File > Transfer > Xmodem > Send and perform the following:
a. Browse for the IET800 modules binary file [‘we-pi-1900715x_xyyy’, where ‘x_x’ represents the firmware
revision level (for e.g. A_1 for firmware revision A1) and ‘yyy’ represents metadata that is appended to the
file name during file transfer from Solutions Bank].
Firmware for the IET800 module is available from ABB at www.SolutionsBank.abb.com or
by contacting ABB Technical Support.
b. Select the appropriate IET800 modules binary file, highlight the path and filename, and copy it to the
clipboard (this is required for later use).
c. Cancel out the transfer operation at this time and return to the terminal screen.
5. Set the IET800 modules dipswitch SW1 pole 1 to open and poles 2-8 closed.
6. Set the IET800 modules dipswitch SW2 pole 3, 5, 6, and 8 to open and set all other poles to closed.
7. Plug the IET800 module into its MMU.
Once you plug the IET800 module into its MMU; the following message is displayed on the terminal emulation
program’s screen:
‘Hello, enter "~" then "!" to start XMODEM download.’
8. Enter the ~ and !; the following message is displayed:

‘You have 15 sec to Start XMODEM download of Binary file.’
9. Select File > Transfer > Xmodem > Send at the terminal prompt.
10. Paste the path and filename that was saved in Step 4 (b).
11. Press the Open button.
The firmware download takes approximately 19 minutes to complete. Once the firmware download is complete,
the following message is displayed:
2VAA000814RevC C-1
IET800 Serial Port - Firmware Download Procedure Firmware Upgrade
Hello, enter "~" then "!" to start XMODEM download.

To avoid module damage, wait for the display to appear before unplugging the IET800
module. Unplugging it too soon will result in an unusable module. Wait for the message to
be displayed before unplugging the module.
12. Unplug the IET800 module and set the dipswitches as require, after the mesage is displayed.
