The SRZ Modules can be accessed directly, via a Z-COM module or via a COM-JL (1*02) Ethernet bridge. the addressing and use is slightly different for each type - see here for details of converting from one type to another in SpecView:
SRZ directly, over Modbus:
Z-TIO:
Address of Z-TIO module is one greater than the address set on the thumbwheel.
eg:
|
Thumbwheel
|

1,1J

Adding modules. A 4-channel Z-TIO is made up of 5 different SpecView instruments. All of them at the same address (See table above)
Create (From Show-New Side of variables list, in RKC-Modbus):
- SRZ-TIO module
- SRZ-TIO Channel 1
- SRZ-TIO Channel 2
- SRZ-TIO Channel 3
- SRZ-TIO Channel 4
Note that Run/Stop applies to the whole module, not just one channel, although it has been placed inside each channel for convenience.
All parameters in the list after Run/Stop can only be set in Stop mode.
It is advisable to use Driver Command SONBL=4 to increase comms throughput. See the SpecView online help for how to enter Driver Commands.
Z-DIO:
Address of Z-DIO module is 17 greater than the address set on the thumbwheel.
eg:
|
Thumbwheel
|

Adding modules. A Z-DIO is represented by one SpecView instrument.
Create:
Note that Run/Stop applies to the whole module, not just one channel.
All parameters in the list after Run/Stop can only be set in Stop mode.
Z-CT:
Address of Z-CT module is 33 greater than the address set on the thumbwheel.
eg:
|
Thumbwheel
|

SRZ without Z-COM, ANSI:
Not supported by SpecView at this time
SRZ modules through Z-COM module, Modbus only:
Through a Z-COM module, you can attach up to 15 Z-TIO and / or 15 Z-DIO modules to make one large system.
In SpecView, these are represented as a number of instruments
SRZ Z-COM Module (For the Z-COM unit itself)
SRZ Z-COM TIO Channel (each individual channel, one only)
SRZ Z-COM DIO (For all the DIO modules & Channels together)
Addressing is as follows: the Thumbwheel on the Z-COM module + 1 is the basic Modbus address:
eg:
|
Thumbwheel

To Setup a system, create one SRZ Z-COM Module at the base address (e.g. 1,1J)
If you have any DIO modules connected, then create one SRZ Z-COM DIO at the same base address as the module. This contains all the individual channels for all the DIOs.
Then,. for the TIO channels, create as many SRZ Z-COM TIO channels at the same bas

e address, but with a ;<offset> as shown below:
Note that the channel number is independent of the module and channel used when they are stand-alone. i.e. Module 2, channel 1 is just “Channel 5” when using a Z-COM module.
It seems that Z-CT modules are not currently supported via Z-COM units, according to the RKC Documentation as of Jan 2008
SRZ modules through COM-JL (1*02) module, Modbus only:
See here for how to setup the COM-JL module.
Through a COM-JL (1*02) module, you can attach up to 15 Z-TIO and / or 15 Z-DIO modules to make one large system.
In SpecView, these are represented as a number of instruments
SRZ COM-JL Module (For the COM-JL unit itself)
SRZ COM-JL TIO Channel (each individual channel, one only)
SRZ COM-JL DIO (For all the DIO modules & Channels together)
Addressing is as follows: <TCP/IP address>,1,0J
In the examples that follow, an address of 192.168.1.3 is assumed:
To Setup a system, create one SRZ COM-JL Module at the base address
(e.g. 192.168.1.3,1,0J)
If you have any DIO modules connected, then create one SRZ COM-JL DIO at the same base address as the module. This contains all the individual channels for all the DIOs.
Then,. for the TIO channels, create as many SRZ COM-JL TIO channels at the same bas
