Setting up the board

The card is set up with the Tyness Configurator software.
Always use the latest version of the Tyness Configurator and make sure that your Tyness
has the latest firmware version. If necessary, proceed with an update.

1 – Click on ” Config ” of the pulse card

2 – In the ” Enabled channels ” insert, define which inputs will be active.
To do this: click on Counter 1 and/or Counter 2 and/or TIC

3 – “Data” insert:

• Define the period for sending measurements
• If a digital input is configured as “Impulse and cycle capture” (cycle time measurement), select the number of rising edges per cycle.

4 – “Tic” insert

• TIC baudrate is used to select the speed of the teleinformation link
• The “Reverse polarity” tick allows the polarity of the remote information link to be reversed. This checkbox is only useful in the case of SME-SMI meters.
• The “Tic Debug” button allows to check that the communication with the meter is correctly established. See section “Tic debug” of this documentation.

5 – Define the operating mode of each input: insert “channels IO Mode

Impulse: returns the index of the number of impulses counted since the start of the product.
Input : returns the state of the input at the time the frame is sent (voltage detected or not)
Time count : returns the time during which voltage has been detected on the input since the product was started.
Impulse and cycle capture: returns the index of the number of impulses counted since the start of the product product and the time since the previous pulse. The “pulse per capture cycle” option allows you to measure the time since a greater number of pulses.

 

6 – Once all the values have been entered, validate by clicking on ” Write “.

If the operation was successful, a window displays “operation successfull”. Validate by clicking on OK.

Your card is ready to use.
