Page 13: Application And Functions
Application and functions Application and use of the RTU Applications The RTU is intended for monitoring and controlling small outlying stations without a connection to a power supply network. In telecontrol networks, the RTU is used to connect the outlying stations to the master station via mobile wireless or via the LAN interface of the RTU and an optional external router.
Page 14: Configuration Examples
Application and functions 1.2 Configuration examples ● Communication with the control room If a communications partner is available in the master station, the RTU can send process data to the control room. The data is transferred either via the mobile wireless service GPRS or UMTS or via LAN (optionally with an external router).
Page 15 Application and functions 1.2 Configuration examples SMS / E-mail / FTP Figure 1-1 Sending SMS messages by the RTU Sending SMS messages / e-mail The RTU can send messages (SMS / e-mails) for configurable events via program blocks or using the logging function. After a request from a mobile telephone, a diagnostics SMS message can be sent.
Page 16 Application and functions 1.2 Configuration examples Telecontrol with the "TeleControl Basic" protocol In the following example the RTU uses the "TeleControl Basic" protocol and communicates via the mobile wireless network and the Internet with the teleconrol server (TCSB) in the master station.
Page 17 Application and functions 1.2 Configuration examples Telecontrol with the "ST7" protocol In the following example the RTU communicates using the telecontrol protocol SINAUT ST7. For secure communication, the RTU uses the transport protocol "MSCsec". The figure includes two alternative connections: ●...
Page 18 Application and functions 1.2 Configuration examples Telecontrol with the "DNP3" protocol The following example contains a configuration with stations that communicate with the master via the mobile wireless network and the Internet. In this example, the master is redundant. The two redundant devices of the master are addressed by the RTU using one DNP3 address but two different IP addresses.
Page 19: Modes And Operating Modes
Application and functions 1.3 Modes and operating modes Telecontrol with the IEC protocol The following example contains a configuration with stations that communicate with the master via the mobile wireless network and the Internet. The connections between stations and master are via an OpenVPN server "SINEMA Remote Connect".
Page 20 Application and functions 1.3 Modes and operating modes TeleControl In the "TeleControl" mode, the RTU can send process data via the mobile wireless network or via the LAN interface and an external router to a master station (see also "Communication mode"...

Page 22: Process Connection - Inputs / Outputs
Application and functions 1.4 Process connection - inputs / outputs The times of the changeover to the communication mode can be configured as a cycle and on the occurrence of events. After transferring data, the RTU returns to the sleep mode. As long as there is no update cycle running.
Page 23: Control Functions
Application and functions 1.5 Control functions Control functions Control functions The control functions of the RTU are implemented by creating a user program made up of program blocks. The blocks are displayed graphically and programmed on integrated Web pages (WBM), see section Program (Page 168). The linking with inputs and outputs and the programming of function values is performed conveniently with drop-down lists or by entering values.
Page 24 ● TeleControl Basic This is a proprietary protocol of Siemens for telecontrol applications. The IP-based communications protocol is used to connect the RTU to the application TCSB. TCSB is installed on a PC in the master station, the telecontrol server. For the version, see section Scope of delivery, accessories, requirements (Page 33).
Page 25 Firmware for the protocols DNP3, IEC and ST7 To use these telecontrol protocols, you need to load the corresponding firmware variant on the RTU. You can obtain the suitable firmware file from Siemens Industry Online Support: ● Link: (http://www.automation.siemens.com/aspa_app/) Here, you will find a contact.
Page 26 Application and functions 1.6 Communications services Other communication services The RTU can send messages and data for configured event classes (diagnostics buffer entries) either as SMS messages or as e-mails. ● SMS (receive) The following SMS messages can be received: –...

Page 28: Security Functions For Communication
Application and functions 1.7 Security functions for communication ● OpenVPN OpenVPN must be used for mobile wireless connections of the RTU to a DNP3 or IEC partner. OpenVPN can also be used for mobile wireless connections of the RTU to the telecontrol server, an ST7 partner, to a configuration PC or for the FTP fie transfer.
Page 29 Application and functions 1.7 Security functions for communication Security functions of the "SINAUT ST7" protocol The RTU uses the transfer protocol "MSCsec" for secure communication. Security functions of the "DNP3" protocol The protocol provides encrypted authorization. OpenVPN For different connections, the RTU uses the VPN technology of OpenVPN. Between the RTU and the connection partner a VPN tunnel is established via an open VPN server and the RTU is the OpenVPN client.
Page 30: Other Services And Properties
As an option you can configure the following OpenVPN servers: ● An OpenVPN server of your choice ● The Siemens application "SINEMA Remote Connect - Server" (SINEMA RC Server) as of version V1.3 If SINEMA RC Server is used as the OpenVPN server, the RTU and the communications partner of the RTU must be configured in SINEMA RC Server as an OpenVPN client.
Page 31 Application and functions 1.9 Performance data ● IP configuration The essential features of IP configuration are as follows: – VLAN interface and the WAN interface of the RTU support IP addresses according to IPv4. – Address assignment of the LAN interface The IP address and the subnet mask can be set manually in the configuration.
Page 32: Performance Data
Application and functions 1.9 Performance data Performance data Program blocks of the controller For control tasks, 38 types of program blocks are available. In total, a maximum of 32 program blocks can be created in up to eight networks.. For a description of the blocks, refer to the section Control functions (Page 23).
