Frequently, these objectives are only partially achieved. This is due to the use of conventional temperature sensors (thermometer, thermo elements, thermo resistors, etc.), which tend to falsify and delay (sensor response versus time hysteresis) measurement results because of the sensors thermal capacity (thermal mass), the electrical energy required for sensor operation, heat transmission / thermal conduction through power and/or data cables. These problems were and still are commonly tackled by either using local data loggers or by deploying battery-powered (radio) data transmission facilities to avoid trouble-

prone cables. However, these methods cause a significant if not inadmissible thermal capacity increase in the measurement set-up with the aforementioned undesired consequences. Batteries frequently prove to be inadequate, undesirable, or even forbidden in specific measurement environments The real-time availability of measuring data (e.g. for process control purposes) usually is another important aspect of the application. The use of wired sensors is particularly costly in environments with moving measurement objects and devices (translatory or rotatory motion; e.g. assembly lines, centrifuges, shafts, bearings, etc.). Not only are wired sensors difficult and costly to install in such environments (trailing cables, slip rings, etc.), they inflict further disadvantages when in operation (susceptibility to interference, high maintenance costs, etc.). An ideal temperature measurement system should include the following features:

wireless (without cable supply) battery-free (no need for integrated energy / power supply) TEMPRIS (Temperature Remote Interrogation System) by iQmobil solutions GmbH is such a system. TEMPRIS works wirelessly and without batteries. Introduction Page 19 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 2.2 TEMPRIS Operational Principle The TEMPRIS system is used for wireless temperature measurement and monitoring of up to 16 sensors without batteries. Radio wave transmission is used to supply the sensors with power and to query the sensor measurement data. The TEMPRIS temperature sensors work on the principle of temperature-regulated resonators, i.e. small electrical circuits with special quartz crystals which are oscillated by an external electromagnetic field (carrier frequency 2.4 GHz, modulation frequencies approx. 10 MHz). A temperature sensor query cycle starts with a receiving channel detection phase, followed by an excitation with a modulated signal. The excitation signal is demodulated by the receiving sensor, and the energy from this signal is preserved as oscillation energy by the sensor. The preserved sensor oscillation energy is then used to modulate the carrier frequency sent by the interrogation unit and to transmit the modulated signal back through the sensor antenna. The TEMPRIS interrogation unit receives this backscatter signal, converts it into digital data and calculates the temperature value contained in this data. The calculated temperature is transmitted via LAN connection to the TEMPRIS DataServer software on the connected PC where the temperature data is logged and visualized. The TEMPRIS system is available in different configurations. Aside from a set of up to 16 wireless temperature sensors, each TEMPRIS system comes with an interrogation unit with either a single antenna for simultaneous transmit and receive operation or a multiplexer switch for operating up to 6 antennas simultaneously. Introduction Page 20 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 2.3 TEMPRIS Applications TEMPRIS is especially suitable where the following requirements have to be met:

\DataServer Start the TEMPRIS DataServer setup program from the above directory:

setup.exe Follow the instructions of the TEMPRIS DataServer setup program to complete the software installation. Unless otherwise specified during setup, the TEMPRIS DataServer software is installed in the Program Files directory on drive C. The TEMPRIS DataServer setup program creates a TEMPRIS DataServer program icon on your desktop and in the Windows Start menu through All Programs iQ-mobil - TEMPRIS DataServer. 3.3.3 Update Installation If an old version of the TEMPRIS DataServer is already installed on your system, then you must remove the old version before installing the new version. Once the old TEMPRIS DataServer is removed, you can proceed with the installation of the new version as described in chapter 5.1. TEMPRIS DataServer System Reuirements Page 32 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4 TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference This section describes the TEMPRIS DataServer software. I.e., the information in this section refers to PC-based TEMPRIS systems, and does not necessarily apply to PLC-

based TEMPRIS systems. In case of PLC-based systems, it is, however, possible to operate the TEMPRIS DataServer software without any restrictions simultaneously with the TEMPRIS interrogation unit as data logger and/or visualization tool through a PC, laptop or Ethernet interface. Please consider the following advice before starting TEMPRIS DataServer:

Please deactivate any features, which could trigger automated Windows restarts (such as, e.g., Restart after automatic updates), as this will interrupt any active data logging and might result in the loss of valuable measuring data. In principle, there are no lock-ups of access to the TEMPRIS DataServer operation. Access is, however, logged in a special activity log, so that the use of the TEMPRIS DataServer is traceable. In case of sensitive data situations, it is, therefore, recommended to set up different access accounts (with PASSWORD) under Windows. These will then be logged, and will make the respective user recognizable in chronological order. In a TEMPRIS system, the following important definition is valid:

The term channel indicates the assignment (mapping) of a TEMPRIS sensor to a TEMPRIS data stream (data record). Sensor to channel assignments allow for measurement data from different sensors to be distinguished. TEMPRIS supports up to 16 sensor assignments, thus supporting simultaneous monitoring of up to 16 temperature measurement data channels. Sensors with different frequencies are assigned to different channels unless a special setup (e.g., with antenna multiplexing) is being used. The sensor assignments are stored in TEMPRIS configuration files. The Config View (see chapter 6.5.) provides functions for saving and loading TEMPRIS configuration files for different sensor sets, antenna configurations, etc. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 33 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.1 TEMPRIS DataServer Features With TEMPRIS DataServer, you can configure your TEMPRIS system according to your requirements:

The Options Connection function activates a dialog for configuring the Ethernet connection. Figure 4-4: TDS Options - Connection The Host field in the Connection dialog displays the IP address of your TEMPRIS interrogation unit. In most cases the factory setting for the IP address should work. However, the IP address can be changed should this be necessary to resolve an address conflict with another device on your network. The AutoConnect option causes the TEMPRIS DataServer software to connect automatically to the specified IP address upon program start-up. We recommend to activate the AutoConnect option on TEMPRIS LAB systems. Clicking the OK button activates the current dialog settings and stores them permanently on your computer. Notes Make sure that the provided Ethernet cable is plugged in between the TEMPRIS interrogation unit and your computer or laptop. In accordance with your data, the IP address has been preset by factory in correspondence with the IP address of your computer / laptop. You can find the preset IP address on a label of the TEMPRIS controller casing. This IP address is temporary, the user has the possibility of changing this address later (see documentation IRU-2 maintenance), e.g. in case of computer replacement, etc. It is recommended to note the changed IP address and to change the label on the casing accordingly. Your interface selection and configuration is stored on your computer and is automatically loaded when the TEMPRIS DataServer is started the next time. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 38 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual Establishing the Data Connection between PC and TEMPRIS Interrogation Unit 4.5 Note The TEMPRIS DataServer of the TEMPRIS LAB version automatically connects to the TEMPRIS interrogation unit upon start-up. In case of current measurement / logging operation, you have to stop both logging with Stop Logging (see Figure 7-5) and the measurement with Stop Measure (see Figure 7-6). Figure 4-5: TDS Toolbar - Stop Logging Figure 4-6: TDS Toolbar Stop Measure After configuring the Ethernet interface (see chapter 4.4), the PC or laptop can connect to the TEMPRIS interrogation unit with the Connect or the Receive Data function from the File Connect submenu.

(3) Antenna Setup The Antenna Setup function allows the corresponding assignment in case of antenna multiplexing. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 45 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual

(4) Channel Setup The Channel Setup function allows querying the current activation status of individual channels (sensors) and corresponding measuring ranges. The following screenshot shows a channel setup query with channels 5, 6, 14 and 15 activated. Figure 4-16: TDS Config View Channel / Antenna Configuration Channel Setup The TEMPRIS data collection process supports different search strategies for finding the sensors in the antenna field of the TEMPRIS interrogation unit. The TEMPRIS sensor search procedure is similar to an automated channel scan on a car radio tuner. In order to search as efficiently as possible, a search area has to be selected (similar to the FM, VHF, etc. band selection on the car radio tuner). The TEMPRIS search area is defined through the following temperature parameters:

Tmin Tmax Tstart Tlow Thigh Temperature measuring range lower limit [C]

Temperature measuring range upper limit [C]

Temperature search start value [C]

Temperature search range lower limit [C]

Temperature search range upper limit [C]

TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 46 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual The assignment status of a channel is displayed in a tool tip when the mouse pointer is moved over the channel indicator as illustrated in the following screenshot.

Figure 4-20: TDS Config View Channel / Antenna Configuration Channel Properties TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 50 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.6.3 Config View - Measurement Figure 4-21: TDS Config View - Measurement The Measurement Interval(s) control sets the time resolution (time interval of measurement points) for the active channels. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 51 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.7 Text View As soon as the controller is connected, data from the activated channels is delivered if these are in reachable distance in the antenna field of the controller. During active measurement, the TEMPRIS interrogation unit continuously carries out a so-called sensor search over the frequency ranges of the activated sensors. The duration of the search period depends on various parameters (number of activated sensors, size of the search window/range, signal quality, etc.). You can switch between different views for displaying incoming data. The Text View for displaying the monitored temperature values can be activated with the Text View function from the View menu or by clicking the corresponding function index tab. Figure 4-22: TDS Text View TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 52 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual Text View displays the incoming values of the active measuring channels in the selected temperature units (Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin). Please note that the temperature values are displayed with one decimal digit, yet the internal precision for storing the temperature values in the TEMPRIS log files is much higher (<0.01 Kelvin). The text view displays the temperature values in two columns. Channels 01 through 08 are displayed in the left column, and channels 09 through 16 are displayed in the right column. Inactive channels are greyed and marked with off. If a channel (sensor) temporarily disappears out of the antenna field (in the example above, the channel 14 has been briefly removed from the field), the last measured temperature value (in the example 22.6C) is represented in grey writing. As soon as a grey channel (sensor) re-enters the antenna field, the currently measured temperature value reappears in normal (black) writing. In the right upper field of the screen, the time of the last measurement is updated. The following temperature display units can be selected thorough Options Preferences

(see below):

The Start Logging command activates a dialog for specifying the desired log file name:

Figure 4-39: Start Logging - Log File Name Selection Note Please make sure to specify a non-existing log file name to prevent the Start Logging function from overwriting any existing log file with the same (default) log file name which previously may have been created with Start Logging and Stop Logging during the same TEMPRIS DataServer session. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 67 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual After specifying a log file name, the following dialog for specifying log file information is activated:

Figure 4-40: Start Logging Log File Info The Title input field allows for a title for the logged data to be entered. The Description text field allows for a descriptive text (notes, comments, etc.) for the logged data to be typed in. This information is permanently stored in the log file header of the log file and may be helpful when examining and/or processing the log file data at a later stage. TEMPRIS log files can become very large (several 100 MB) depending on the duration of the measurement and/or the selected data rate. This may pose handling problems when processing such large log files on computers with limited processor capacity, main memory or hard disk space. We therefore recommend that you choose the data rate with this in mind and according to your actual time resolution requirements. Log files can be exported to CSV (Comma Separated Values) files for subsequent processing in spread sheet applications such as Microsoft Excel. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 68 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual Since the measuring data is stored internally within the program during a measuring run, a later permanent saving of data is also possible with the File Save Current Data function. The Save Current Data function saves the currently displayed data to a log file (/*.log). The Save Current Data function offers you the choice between Signal Only and Signal Details. The Signal Only option saves temperature data only. The Signal Details option saves the temperature data and additional data such as S/N (signal-to-noise ratio, signal quality) values. Figure 4-41: Save Current Data Please note that cached data is cleared if you use either the Clear Data command (from the Data menu or the graphics view) or the Exit command (from the File menu or the toolbar). At the beginning of a measurement, you should take the precaution of using the Start Logging command to generate a log file as this provides a backup in case you accidentally use Clear Data or Exit without having saved your measurement data. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 69 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.12 Print and Plot Output The TEMPRIS DataServer program provides a number of functions for generating print and plot outputs. The File Page Setup function activates a dialog for selecting printer settings such as paper size, paper source/feed, page orientation (Portrait or Landscape) and page/print margins:

Figure 4-42: Print Page Setup The File Print Preview Current View function displays preview of the expected print result for the total current screen. This function is available in all data view modes. The File Print Preview Graphics function displays a preview of the expected print result of the current graphics area without command / status bar. This function is only available in graphics view mode. The File Print Current View function prints the total current screen. This function is available in all data view modes. The File Print Graphics function prints the current graphics area without command and status bar. This function is only available in only in graphics view mode. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 70 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.13 Loading Log Files for Offline Data Visualization The File Load Log File function can be used to load log files from previous TEMPRIS measurements for offline processing (visualization, measurement with cross hairs, detail view with zoom function, documentation with Print, etc.). If necessary, multiple log files can be superimposed. The Data Loaded Log File Info function displays the names of the loaded log files together with start and end time of the loaded data and an indication of the activated channels:

Figure 4-43: Loaded Log File Info TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 71 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual The Data button in the Loaded Log File Info dialog activates a channel data properties dialog with additional log file information about stored channels, data volume, and recording time. Figure 4-44: Loaded Log File Info - Data Note The TEMPRIS interrogation unit needs not be connected for the Load Log File function to work. I.e., you can use the TEMPRIS DataServer software on a PC or laptop without a connection to a TEMPRIS interrogation unit to load and analyse TEMPRIS measurement data from a previously stored TEMPRIS log file. We also make sure that the TEMPRIS log file format is forward compatible. This means that your TEMPRIS DataServer software can load TEMPRIS log files which were saved with older TEMPRIS DataServer versions. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 72 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.14 Data Export to CSV The Data Export Current Data to CSV function is used to export the currently loaded measuring data to a CSV file (CSV = Comma Separated Values) for further processing in spread sheet applications such as Microsoft Excel. Export Current Data to CSV generates two CSV file columns for each active channel/sensor. The first of these columns contains the timestamp (in country-specific format), and the second column contains the temperature value in country-specific decimal notation. Up to 16 channels are exported with each channel having its own timestamp column. The following screenshot shows a Microsoft Excel session with an imported TEMPRIS CSV file. Figure 4-45: TEMPRIS CSV Data in Microsoft Excel TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 73 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual The Export Current Data to CSV function exports date/time values and numerical values using the format which is currently activated through your Windows Control Panel Regional and Language Options settings. Certain Microsoft Excel versions are limited to a maximum of 32000 data rows per spread sheet. To overcome this potential problem you can either log your TEMPRIS data at a reduced data rate (see 6.5 Configuring the system settings, Measurement Interval(s)) or create appropriate excerpts from the data stock using the File Save Current Data function. The TEMPRIS interrogation unit needs not be connected for the Export to CSV function to work. I.e., you can use the TEMPRIS DataServer software on a PC or laptop without a connection to a TEMPRIS interrogation unit to load TEMPRIS measurement data from a previously stored TEMPRIS log file with the Load Log File function and export this data to a CSV file with the Export to CSV function. For an easier handling of large log files, you can use the compression tools Compress Log file and Decompress Log file from the Tools menu. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 74 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.15 Copying Screens to the Windows Clipboard The commands Copy Graphics, Copy Signal Info and Copy Current View commands from the Edit menu can be used to copy the corresponding screens as bitmap image (without the actual data) to the Windows Clipboard for further processing (pasting/inserting) in word processor and desktop publishing applications such as Microsoft Word. Figure 4-46: Copy Screen to Clipboard TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 75 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 4.16 Retrieving the Current Configuration Settings The Config Status command toolbar button retrieves and displays the current TEMPRIS DataServer and TEMPRIS interrogation unit configuration status. The Config Status command can only be activated if a connection to a TEMPRIS interrogation unit is active. The Print Config Document button in the Config Status window can be used to print the configuration status. Figure 4-47: Current Configuration Settings 4.17 Exiting the TEMPRIS DataServer The Exit command from the toolbar or the File menu is used to terminate the TEMPRIS DataServer session. Note Exiting the TEMPRIS DataServer software does not affect the activities of the TEMPRIS interrogation unit. I.e., the TEMPRIS interrogation unit keeps supplying a connected PLC

/ SCADA system with data, even though the TEMPRIS DataServer program which started the measurement on that TEMPRIS interrogation unit has been closed. TEMPRIS DataServer User Interface and Function Reference Page 76 of 80 TEMPRIS User Manual 5 5.1 TEMPRIS Options Modbus TCP/IP Interface The TEMPRIS system comes with a Modbus TCP/IP interface. The TEMPRIS Modbus TCP/IP interface is integrated to the TEMPRIS IRU-2 interrogation unit and can be configured with the TEMPRIS DataServer software. The TEMPRIS Modbus TCP/IP interface allows for TEMPRIS data to be transmitted over 4-

20mA or 0-20mA current loops to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) for process-

control use. The following block diagram shows a typical setup of a TEMPRIS Modbus TCP/IP to PLC interface. TEMPRIS Interrogation Unit (IRU-2) Ethernet TCP/IP Modbus TCP/IP Coupler 341)

552/000-200) Figure 5-1: TEMPRIS Modbus TCP/IP to PLC Interface Setup The following figure illustrates the principle of the TEMPRIS temperature sensor data and sensor status output to the PLC. The TEMPRIS sensor temperature value is transmitted with Write Single Register (function code FC6) or Write Multiple Registers (function code FC16) to the Modbus register. The TEMPRIS sensor status flag (Sensor missing/not found) is transmitted with Write Single Coil (function code FC5) or Write Multiple Coils (function code FC15) to the Modbus coil.

The Automation Setup dialog provides controls for:

setting the Modbus IP Address, specifying the Number of Digital Outputs for transmitting TEMPRIS status flags to Modbus Coils, specifying the Number of Current Outputs for transmitting temperature values to Modbus Registers, enabling/activating the TEMPRIS Modbus TCP/IP interface. The following figure shows the Automation Setup dialog. When pressing the OK or Apply button, the Automation Setup interface configuration is not only activated but also saved to the TEMPRIS interrogation unit for future use.

The Channel Properties dialog for a specific TEMPRIS channel is activated by clicking the channel button in the Channel /

Antenna Configuration block of the TEMPRIS DataServer Config View. Channel Properties dialog controls:

Current Output Index Sets the Modbus Register for transmitting the channel/sensor temperature values. The Current Output Index is zero-based and limited by the Number of Current Outputs specified through Automation Setup (see above). T min and T max Specifies the channel temperature range for the Current Output Index to be mapped to the 4-20mA current loop range.

(Typical setting for lyophilisation processes: Tmin = -60C; Tmax = 40 C) T error Specification of an error temperature value to be transmitted if no valid channel temperature value is available. Error Output Index Sets the Modbus Coil for transmitting Sensor missing / not found status flags. The Error Output Index is zero-based and limited by the Number of Digital Outputs specified through Automation Setup (see above). 4-20mA Current loop range selection. Tick 4-20mA box for 4-20mA range, or leave box unticked for 0-20mA range.
