1) Introduction

The OPC_SCHRACK_N3 ver. 2.0 is a communication driver which allows to connect BMS system with a fire protection system based on N3 network of devices from Schrack Seconet. The Integral Standard Protocol (ISP) is used by the driver. The computer with BMS system uses a serial port (RS232). Schrack central can use one of the following modules: B3-USI4, B3-LPI, B4-USI. The driver can be connected to BMZ Integral C or BMZ Integral system.

It includes the following features:

Very effective method of communication in N3 network, which uses ISP protocol.
Works as a service. It works even after logging out from the system.
Supports all main commands and events which exist in Schrack.
Ability of sending commands to the central from the computer system.
Multithreading which allows to do tasks in a very efficient way, without a heavy load of the processor.
Very effective connection to BMS system using OPC.
Easy to use configuration.
Monitoring of the communication process.
Automatically re-running the communication after failure.

2) Installing the I/O driver

Run OPC_SCHRACK_N3_INSTALL.EXE.Installation software will put OPC_SCHRACK_N3 files into the C:\Program Files\TIGER_SOFT\OPC_SCHRACK_N3_2_0 directory or another directory chosen by the user. Shortcuts to the manual and registration software exist in the group OPC_SCHRACK_N3 ver. 2.0 (access from the Start menu). The driver is installed as a service.

3)Software registration

OPC_SCHRACK_N3 should be registered after installation using TIGER-SOFT internet service. SOFTWARE REGISTRATION from OPC_SCHRACK_N3 group should be started first. This program generates file gen_lic.lic and saves it in the main driver directory. Then you have to connect to http://www.tiger-soft.com.pl/Registration/registration.html, fill the form and receive the registration code. This code should be put to the editable field in the SOFTWARE REGISTRATION. Press OK to finish registration process.

4)Configuring the OPC_SCHRACK_N3

The file - Configuration.oes is used for the driver configuration. It exists in the same directory like the OPC_SCHRACK_N3.exe. An example of the file is presented below.

5)Configuring an OPC client.

OPC_SCHRACK_N3 is an OPC server. Every software that can be an OPC client should work fine with OPC_SCHRACK_N3. ProgID is TS.OPC_SCHRACK_N3.
ItemID can be set like this:

ItemID	Description	Types	Addresses	Returned values
Communication	Presents the status of the communication between OPC_SCHRACK_N3 and SCHRACK central unit.			Value 1 means that communication is OK, 0 there is no communication.
XccTttAaa[sa]	Shows the status of a zone or an element, where cc - central number; tt - type; aa - address; sa - sub address. Example: X01T2A1[105], reads information from central number 1, about the status of the sub element 105 from group 1, type 2.	tt 0 - zone 1 - input 2 - output 3 - external 4 - printer 5 - CI 6 - battery 7 - net 8 - module active 9 - module passive 10 - delay layer 11 - FBP fire brigade panel 12 -SCU 13 - intervention 14 - connection 15 - master system 16 - loop 255 - general	sa 0-254 - sub address of an element 255 - for a zone	status 0 - idle ss=0-general 1 - alarm ss=0; 1-simulation; 2-smoke; 3-temperature 2 - revision alarm ss=0; 2-smoke; 3-temperature 3 - fault ss=0; 1-short circuit; 2-open circuit; 3-simulation; 4-external; 5-overload; 6-not present; 7-earth fault; 8-switch 2; 9-configuration; 10-startup; 11-connection; 12-mapping 4 - revision fault ss=0; 1-short circuit; 2-open circuit;5-overload; 6-not present; 7-eartch fault; 8-switch 2;9-configuration; 10-startup; 12-mapping 5 - disablement ss= 0;1-key switch; 2-automatic; 3-FBP 6 - internal disablement ss=0 7 - revision ss=0 8 - activation ss= 0;1-automatic; 2-external; 3-FBP 9 - deactivation ss= 0;1-FBP 10 - hard alarm ss=0 11 - enabled ss=0; 1-level 1; 2-level 2; 3-level 3; 4-level 4; 5-level 5; 6-level 6; 7-level 7; 12 - active (pollution active in the case of a zone) ss=0; 1-simulation; 2-automatic 13 - revision active ss=0 14 - warning ss=0 15 - explore ss=0 16 - terminated ss=0 17 - revision activation ss=0; 1-automatic; 2-external; 3-FBP 18 - paper feed ss=0 19 - silent alarm ss=0; 1-simulation; 2-smoke; 3-temperature 20 - preactivation ss=0 21 - release ss=0; 1-external 22 - preactive ss=0; 1-simulation 23 - revision preactive ss=0 24 - low battery ss=0

XccCT4095A65535[255]	Allows to sent the summary alarm reset command.			commands 259 - alarm reset

6) Starting and stopping the OPC_SCHRACK_N3

The driver can be run from the service manager on Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista. Second way is to use command line with commands: OPC_SCHRACK_N3 -s for starting and OPC_SCHRACK_N3 -z, for stopping it. The service OPC_SCHRACK_N3 can be also configured to start automatically after operating system is started.

WARNING!!! If the driver is installed on Windows XP/Vista or Windows 2003/2008 Server additional parameters have to be set. These parameters concern security of the service and DCOM component. In order to do it dcomcnfg.exe should be run. User of the service should be chosen from computer users (for example system administrator). The same user should be set for DCOM TIGER-SOFT OPC_SCHRACK_N3 (Identity).
