Clipsal C-BUS Communication Driver

Clipsal C-BUS Communication Driver is the driver to communicate with Clipsal lighting controller of Schneider Electric Pty Ltd. in Australia.

Note) Clipsal C-BUS communication driver support Smart and Burden mode of Clipsal controller.

1. Read settings

<Figure 1> is read setting example of Clipsal C-BUS communication driver.

<Figure 1> Read setting example of Clipsal C-BUS communication driver

40E2USBM is the part number of the USB charger mechanism used in 3025USB2. 40E2USBM is a 2-wire mechanism with 2 USB ports suitable for charging electronic devices such as large tablets as well as smaller devices such as smartphones and music players.Each port is capable of a maximum output of 2.1 A, with a total maximum output across both ports of 3.1 A. If there are smart home devices or appliances you already have, or ones that you know you definitely want, these will be pivotal to the rest of your smart home system. Be clear with your integrator if you have your heart set on something specific.

Device part of <Figure 1> input Com Port(COM1), Baud Rate(9600), Parity Bit(0), Data Bit(8), Stop Bit(1) respectively.

Clipsal C-BUS can set station number, baud rate, data bit, stop bit, stop bit by ladder program,

Clipsal C-BUS communication driver’s read schedule

Read schedule setting parameters are as follows:

1) STATION – Unit address = 0 ~ 255.

2) Read command – Read device type = TER = Read of Terminal Levels, GROUP = Read of Group Address Levels.

3) Read Start Address – Don't care.

4) Save start address for Communication Server – Saving start address of Communication Server.

5) Read Size – Fixed to 1.

Read schedule example)

Drivers enfora modems. READ, 2, TER, 0, 0, 1,

READ, 3, TER, 0, 10, 1,

READ, 8, TER, 0, 20, 1,

Readed data of Clipsal C-BUS communication driver changed according to unit and the data value range is 0 ~ 255.

If 4 channel relay unit, save 4 data value. ( 0 = Off, 255 = On )

Also 8 channel Dimmer controller save 8 data value, value range = 0 ~ 255.

If you click the icon in protocol option part, you can see the dialogue box such as <Figure 2>. you can also set read schedule by using this part.

<Figure 2> Example of Clipsal C-BUS communication driver’s Option dialogue box

You can set read schedule by using , , button and listbox of <Figure 2>.

When you click Add button or Edit button in dialogue box of <Figure 2>, dialogue box of <Figure 3> is shown.

2. Writing settings

You can write(relay, dimmer value) Clipsal C-BUS by using write settings.

Digital Write

Digital write and analog write have the same setting parameters except output value.

Analog Write

Analog write setting parameters are as follows:

1) PORT Port no. (0 ~ 255)

2) STATION Group address = 0 ~ 255.

3) ADDRESS Don't care.

4) Extra1 Write command.

DIM = Setting of Dimmer group( output range = 0 ~ 255 ),

SMART = Change to Smart Mode command,

CON = Relay control. (0 = Off, 1 ~ 255 = On )

5) Extra2 Command(Extra1) : DIM, setting of lamp time ( Refer to <Table 1> )

Other command : Don't care.

Note) RS-232C cable of Clipsal C-BUS use direct cable. ( Refer to <Figure 4> )

4. Setting of Smart and Burden mode

Clipsal C-BUS communication driver support Smart and Burden mode of Clipsal controller.

Setting of Smart and Burden mode use ‘CBus Diagnostic Utility’ program, provided by Clipsal( Schneider Electric ).

1) Run ‘CBus Diagnostic Utility’ program. <Figure 5> is an example of main screen of 'CBus Diagnostic Utility’.

<Figure 5> Example of main screen of 'CBus Diagnostic Utility’

2) Connect Clipsal controller by using ‘C-Bus|Connect to C-Bus’ menu at <Figure 5>.

3) After the connection is completed, select ‘C-Bus|Set Mode’ menu. Then opens dialog box such as <Figure 6>.
