SCADAPACK 474

[tharun]

Hi all,

I want to know that whether SCADAPack 474 also supports c/c++ programs for its serial port.

Thank you.

Hello @tharun ,

C++ is not supported on the SCADAPack 474 and 470 Smart RTUs.

Any logic programming is done using RemoteConnect.

As Martin previously stated, the SCADAPack 47x does not support C/C++ programs. Stating that, there are serial port function blocks in the Logic Editor for making custom serial port protocols. These are not available in Telepace based RTU's.

The following blocks are available in the SCADAPack 47x Logic Editor. If using these, the serial port settings need to be set to "COM (User Function Block)"

Function Block Name	Purpose
COM_ClearReadBuffer	Clear serial port receive buffer
COM_Close	Close a serial port
COM_Open	Open a serial port for use
COM_Read	Read characters from a serial port
COM_ReadBinary	Read binary characters from a serial port and convert to a string of ASCII Hexadecimal characters
COM_Write	Write ASCII characters to a serial port
COM_WriteBinary	Convert a string of ASCII hexadecimal characters to binary and write to a serial port
RS232_GetLineState	Read a serial RS232 line state
RS232_SetLineState	Set a serial RS232 line state

More information about these function blocks can be found in the technical help manuals of RemoteConnect. The full software package can be accessed on the Exchange shop for free. See link below.
