Communications
Networking The L2000 can operate in peer-to-peer and/or polled fashion on RS-232, RS-485, or Ethernet. When the peer-to-peer method is chosen the L2000 can send data either at an interval or change based to minimize communication traffic. The L2000 can communicate with up to 65,000 uniquely addressed network nodes. All data rates and settings are software selectable for ease of setup. In the event of a communications failure, the sophisticated networking software can be configured to automatically switch over to any other port, thus maintaining contact. When communications are restored, traffic may be automatically re-routed through the original port.
Remote Control With Remote Control, you can examine and change a variety of items on your L2000, LIQ 5™, or LIQ 4™ from another L2000 controller! The Remote Control feature provides monitoring and control across your existing communications network. Imagine the power of being able to examine and change a setpoint over a radio link on a L2000 located 10 miles away! Remote Control works across all communications media supported by the L2000 Acknowledge alarms Change any register / setpoint Examine and register / setpoint Examine or Change current mode Multi-Lingual L2000 The L2000 is not only multi-talented but multi-lingual as well! On top of all the great features it has to offer, the L2000 can also be used as a communications server and protocol converter. The L2000 speaks the following protcols fluently:
PROTOCOL DEVICE Data Express TESCO LIQ IV Sata Express Plus TESCO LIQ 5 MODICON™ or other Modbus™ PLC PLC DGH (ASCII) Remote I/O
Message Store and Forward Routing With store and forward, the L2000 can act as a telemetry message router/bridge between other controllers/systems which would not otherwise be able to communicate because of distance or other limitations Internal table configures message routed Support includes MODBUS and DGH protocols Messages may take mulitple hops to reach destination Supports all L2000 communications media Messages can be routed across different media Automatic alternate message path routing on communication link failure L2000 Programmable Logic Controller
Data Archiving
The Data Archiving Module which is resident in the L2000 controller provides all the capabilities and functions necessary to data record all register transactions throughout the L2000 Controller. Register values may be stored based on change, or may be stored in "compressed" format, with minimum/maximum, and average values stored away for each time interval. Alarm information may also be captured.
The Archive Module can handle up to forty separate archive arrays Data Archiving log rate to 10 milliseconds across all archives Timestamp for each recorded entry is accurate to 10 milliseconds Average/Min/Max data compression archiving Change Based archiving with associated delta change registers The L2000 Archiving Module will automatically archive all alawm events The archive arrays can be easily triggered ON or OFF for event archiving Archive array data integrity is maintained across power failures PC support for UPLOAD and TRENDING of archive data Integration of Siteglas SCADA for upload/control of archive arrays Automatic recovery of archived data after comm failure with Siteglas Data Express Plus messaging protocol provides a complete telemetry interface to all archiving functions and control All data is guaranteed to be trapped and processed, unlike other Data Loggers which have to sample the physical I/O and hopefully synchronize witht he Process Controller. The advantages of having the Controller provide the Data Logging mechanism are tremendous. L2000 Programmable Logic Controller
Dynamic Data Exchange
You can setup a 3-D trend using real-time L2000 data in a matter of minutes!
The TESCO L2000 DDE Server enables the TESCO L2000 controller to directly communicate with MS Windows™, Windows 95™, and Windows NT™ applications that support the DDE interface. Most popular Windows applications support DDE, and now so does the L2000 controller! This means that you can have real-time data automatically update in your favorite spreadsheet, database, or even word processor.
Dynamic Data Exchange is the basic foundation for client-server IPC (Interprocess Communication) under MS Windows. The TESCO L2000 DDE Server can service multiple DDE Clients simultaneously.
The TESCO L2000 DDE Server is a solution whenever you need to read real-time data from an L2000 into a DDE compliant third party application. Reading real-time data from an L2000 controller into a spreadsheet would be an example. The TESCO L2000 DDE server will support up to nine communication ports simultaneously in any configuration of point to point and multipoint networking. Utilizing true RS-232 hardware handshaking, this server easily interfaces to multipoint radios, modems, and more. The TESCO L2000 DDE Server has on-line help, which makes it very user friendly.
The TESCO L2000 DDE Server makes remote L2000 Controller register-data available to any Windows DDE Client application for real-time analysis and archiving of system process information. All analog registers are calibrated to real world engineering units in 32-bit IEEE floating point. Setpoints and other L2000 internal registers are also available with the TESCO L2000 DDE Server.

* The “NRTL/C” mark appearing next to the CSA stamp indicates that the charger was also tested to meet U.L. requirements (UL 1310). Under the provisions of this agreement, CSA and U.L. can now test to each others’ specifications and thus obtain approval for both organizations.
** PSC-122000A, PSC-241000A and PSC-124000A can be switched to accept 115 VAC or 230 VAC input (47-63 Hz) allowing usage both here and abroad.
*** PSC-124000AP should be used when the automatic dual rate charger is used like a power supply. As such it can supply a continuous load current of up to 2.5A, yet still switch into float mode (13.8V) when the battery is fully charged.
