1. GENERAL

1.1. Product operation

Edor is the new sensor for the remote monitoring of the amount of monitoring in natural gas, used as a

remote survey unit. It can detect three types of odorant: TBM (mercaptan compounds), THT

(tetrahydrothiophene) and EM(EthylMercaptan).

The device can be installed inside odorization plants to check the intake of odorant in gas (gas distribution

stations, or “R.E.M.I.”), or along the gas distribution network to obtain a constant measurement of the

amount of odorant reaching the user’s end points (“GRF” and “GRI” distribution stations).

The device uses electrochemical sensors, i.e. specific cells for each type of measured odorant. Typically,

the sensor is tested in presence of the gas by opening a low-energy solenoid valve once or up to 4 times a

day. The rate measured is then transmitted to the data centre once a day via SMS. In case a low dosage

of gas is detected in two consecutive measures, the device warns the on-call technician by sending an

SMS to his cell phone number and the central software EdorCentral notifies the alarm on the video screen.

The measurements are transmitted by means of remote communication device (modem) that sends data

directly via SMS (basic version), to the gas network manager, enabling him to constantly monitor and

record the network’s odorization state without the assistance of additional staff members who are usually

called to perform this verification activity every now and then.

Connection to the electricity network is not required as the device runs entirely on batteries (basic

version). However versions with solar panel power supplies are available with 230VAC and 12-24VDC.

Due to the software’s temperature compensation function, the device can guarantee accuracy of 15%1.

The temperature is detected through a PT100 probe installed next to the sensor.

With the Sampling System accessory (SS option) it is possible to achieve accuracy of less than 10%1

thanks to periodical self-calibrations with a sample gas cylinder connected to a second solenoid valve.

Without the SS accessory it is however possible to perform periodical manual calibrations (intervention of

an operator with a sample gas cylinder on the unit/station).

The device can be entirely configured directly by the user via SMS in text mode on a cell phone.

Edor Central is an application for PC Windows dedicated to the configuration and the remote-reading of

individual Edor stations. It is multi-user and multi-language software capable of saving the entire log of

the measurements and generating a report that is easily imported via Microsoft Excel for quick

consultation. Through user-friendly input screens, EdorCentral enables users to configure any operation

parameter without requiring knowledge of communication protocols. The software’s only requirement is

the connection to a dedicated GSM modem to receive and send SMS that is connected to a computer. The

proper operation of EdorCentral is guaranteed solely with these types of modem: “Siemens TC35i”,

“Cinterion TC35i”, “Siemens TC65” (all models with RS232 serial port), and “Digicom USB Wave GPRS M”,

with USB port.

1.3. Warnings

NOTES REGARDING THE INSTALLATION SITE

We recommend you install the control unit where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight for long

hours, or alternatively, follow the countermeasures mentioned in the installations notes;

Check that the electrical cabin is free from gas leaks using a gas detector;

Check that the GSM service is available, and install an external antenna if necessary;

Check that the pressure on the gas pipeline is 25-35 mbar by using an interception valve with a

1/4” NPT F connector (the plug must be identified beforehand);

Check that the explosion risk areas have been classified and identified pursuant to local legislation

in order to install the GSM modem in a safe zone;

Check that the 4 holes in the electrical cabin have a diameter of 5 mm to fix the GSM unit and a

hole with a 24 mm diameter for the cables to pass through it.

INSTALLATION NOTES

The start-up and maintenance operations should be performed by qualified staff only;

disconnect the battery before performing any kind of operation on the device;

TBM is extremely prone to oxidation and connects to any surface until it reaches saturation. It is

therefore important you connect the Edor device to the low-absorption methane connection pipe

supplied with the device and perform a quick test. Alternately you may use an AISI 316 stainless

steel pipe with 6 mm diameter for permanent installation;

during the maintenance phase use CPL parts only; the use of parts from other manufacturers will

void the warranty;

follow the instructions regarding wiring and connection to other systems or transducers;

the internal analyser must be protected from dust and rain and from temperatures above 40°C:

secure it near the ground, in upright position, at the shaded side of the station/unit. In case of

metal cabs, provide for insulation or protect the outer sides exposed to direct sunlight via reflective

films or insulate the cabin with aluminium panels at a distance of 3 cm from the cabin itself;

the site where the monitoring unit will be installed should be absolutely free from gas leaks or from

any type of gas-related substances (traces of TBM, THT, ammonia or any other polluting

substance). The measurement cell may be damaged by the constant presence of concentrations of

chemical, sulphurous or polluting substances. Check the installation site with gas leak detectors

before installing the device;

read the ATEX manual regarding safety instructions;

loads above 60 Litres/h or excessive pressure may deteriorate the odorant-detection cell;

loads below 20 Litres/h may produce measurements with a negative rate;

excessive distances (above 1.5 m) between one monitor unit and the measured point may

negatively influence measurement accuracy;

in the basic version, make sure that the manual calibrating channel is always closed with a stopper

during normal operation to avoid leaks and misleading measurements;

the sensor also produces a signal when it detects substances other than THT; the next page will

provide an non-exhaustive list of some of the substances with their relative measurements. The

same observations apply for the TBM sensor;

complete the EDOR activation module before installation and send it via fax directly to CPL

Concordia, at the following fax number: (+39) 0535-616124;

make sure the device is perfectly calibrated before beginning large-scale measurement campaigns;

Page 8: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 8 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

if the connectors of the monitor units are disconnected, you will need to wait at least one hour

before performing measurements to allow the sensor to stabilise and 4 hours before performing

calibrations;

the measurement cell is affected by the effects of memory: many consecutive measurements (e.g.

3 measurements in 5 minutes) typically performed during the start-up phase may generate

exceeding measurements. We recommend waiting for at least 20 minutes from one measurement

(or calibration) and another;

the removal of factory tags (seals or labels) results in the expiry of the warranty. In case of a

device under inspection purposes, the device can be sold without a warranty period;

the cell has a warranty period of 6 months only in case all the warnings are followed. With average

concentrations of odorants the warranty expires, in any case, after nearly 1000 measurements

with an exposition time to gas equal to 1 minute each1;

Edor is a merely indicative, non-analytic measurement tool. Errors in measurement are due to the

inaccurate of certification of the sample cylinders, and for the presence of impurities in the gas

(that may interfere with the measurements performed by Edor, but not with a gas

chromatograph). Worth mentioning is the fact that even the gas chromatograph may produce

errors due to the sample cylinder used for the calibration;

The 15%1 accuracy rate refers to the measurement system of Edor, excluding any tolerance of the

calibration sample mixtures.

2.4. Quick programming and start-up

The device can be programmed and adjusted to the customer’s needs. This is done using EdorCentral or a

simple text SMS sent to the device’s reference number. Controls, with their respective descriptions, are

contained in the EdorCentral chapter. The message is received once every day at the time configured as

the beginning of the measurements.

The machine is operative at the very first start and it uses factory settings, namely 4 measurements per

day, it receives configuration SMS messages and sends a measurement report at 7:00 am. To adjust

EDOR’s parameters to one’s own needs, it is possible to send an SMS to configure the device ID and the

GSM numbers of the data centre and on-call technician. To do so send a message with the following text:

EN00112233;A=XXXXXXXX;D=YYYYYYYYY;E=ZZZZZZZZ;

where:

00112233 is the factory ID; for all configuration operations after the first one, use the last ID sent

XXXXXXXX (max 8 digits) is the new ID

YYYYYYYYY (max 15 digits) is the GSM number of the remote-reading centre

ZZZZZZZZ (max 15 digits) is the GSM number of the on-call technician in case of alarms

Note: basic configuration does not affect the machine’s hardware functionality. In case of wrong

configuration parameters, repeat the configuration.

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 15 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

2.5. Test measurement

The measurement process enables the machine to detect the amount of current odorant and send a

report SMS with the value detected. The length of the measurement varies from 2 to 6 minutes.

1. Make sure the dip switches are positioned as follows: Dip 1 OFF – Dip 2 OFF – Dip 3 OFF – Dip 4

OFF;

2. Press button 1 to start the measurement procedure.

The DL3 LED starts blinking to indicate that the measurement is started. After an initial adjustment

phase, the actual measurement begins (the solenoid valve clicks and gas leaks out). Once the

measurement is completed, the DL5 LED blinks to indicate that an SMS message is being sent with the

measured value.

The measurement process ends when all the LEDs are off.

2.6. Diagnostics

In case of problems, disconnect the battery, wait for a dozens of

seconds and then connect the battery again. When the device

starts again, it will perform a self-diagnosis procedure to find any

erroneous connections or damages to the hardware. The start-up

sequence is as follows:

1. Modem activation and SIM card registration notified by a DL5

LED light that starts blinking;

2. Simultaneous switch-on of the DL3, DL2, and DL1 LEDs;

3. Correct modem operation test is performed. The DL3 LED

turns off;

4. Correct temperature sensor test is performed. The DL2 LED

turns off;

5. Correct Edor sensor test is performed. The DL1 LED turns off;

6. When all three LEDs blink rapidly and simultaneously, no

errors are on the machine, whereas a fast flicker repeated 15 times indicates the presence of at least

one error. In this event, check that the cable of the LED indicator in question is connected properly.

2.7. Electrical connections inside the control unit

2.10. Version with 4-20mA analogue outlets

The analogue ports, where applicable, enable to send a signal regarding the odorization rate (“O.R.”

outlet) and temperature (“TEMP” oulet) regarding the last measurement performed. Moreover, a third

outlet (“ACK”) acknowledges the user that a “new measurement was performed and completed”.

This option, available only with 230V and 12-24VDC models, is used only where an expansion module is

installed. In the 230V model, operation is ensured also without mains electricity thanks to the buffer

battery.

Start-up

Connect the buffer battery, connect the 230V mains and lift the main switch found inside the device, press

Edor’s reset button and wait for nearly 60 seconds for the initialization phase (POST) to start.

At first start-up, it is essential you wait for the power supply condenser to be charged: in case start-up is

not performed correctly (LEDs are still inactive 2 minutes after start-up) it may be necessary to reset Edor

and start the system correctly.

Shutdown

Lower the main switch, press the reset button and wait for at least 3 minutes to let the power condensers

turn off.

The analogue channel 1 (O.R.) has a default scale of 0mg/smc (4mA); 100mg/smc (20mA).

The analogue channel 2 (TEMPERATURE) has as a default scale -50°C (4mA); +100°C (20mA).

The analogue channel 3 (measurement confirmation completed) indicates that a new measurement had

just terminated: after the measurement, the outlet is taken to the logic value of “Uno” [One], then, after

20 seconds it is taken to the logical value of “Zero”. By default, the value corresponding to “Zero” is equal

to 5mA, while for the “Alto” [High] logical value it is equal to 15mA.

The configuration of the zero scale, of the full scale and of the level of voltage associated to the third

outlet is possible via a serial console.

Enable the serial console as shown in para. 4.3 “Serial Console”, and enter the analogue settings in the

menu via “A”:

1) lowTO[0] set the zero scale of the O.R. outlet (mg/smc)

2) highTO[100] set the full scale of the O.R. outlet (mg/smc)

3) lowTemp[0] set the zero scale of the TEMPERATURE outlet (°C)

4) highTemp[150] set the full scale of the TEMPERATURE outlet (°C)

5) ackLow[5] set the mA associated to the “Zero” logic value of the ACK outlet

6) ackHigh[15] set the mA associated to the “Uno” logic value of the ACK outlet

7) Esci&Salva exits the menu and saves changes

8) Esci senza salvare exits the menu without saving changes

Now press the number corresponding to the value to change it and then press ENTER.

The following appears:

Ins.Val.:

Now enter the desired value and press ENTER. Repeat the procedure for the desired values. Finally, exit

the menu by pressing “7” or “8”.

Temperature values have an offset of 50: to enter a full scale -50°C you must enter the 0 value, to enter

a zero scale of -10°C enter the 40 value.

The system automatically exits the menu after two minutes of inactivity.

Outlets are updated every 10 sec in the standby state and only for the 230V version (this activity can be

checked by the blinking LEDs “TX” and “RX” on the expansion module). In the 12V version, module

updating is kept to the minimum in order to reduce power (during start-up, outlet tests, parameter

configurations, and measurement).

IMPORTANT! Make sure the serial console is used by qualified staff only. Sending the wrong

commands may seriously compromise the machine’s operation and void the warranty.

2.11. Version with RS485 modbus serial outlet

The version with RS485 serial outlet requires an external power supply (not battery) and features a

complementary connector for the attachment of the serial and the 12Vdc power supply.

The connector on the top right corner, called M1, has four poles with

the following signs:

+ power supply positive pole (12Vdc)

- power supply negative pole

L RS485 serial outlet negative

H RS485 serial outlet positive

The serial’s settings, which cannot be changed, are:

baudrate 4800

data bits 8

parity none

stop bits 1

Handshaking none

2.12. Version with external RS232 interface cable

In order to monitor the Edor activity without opening the device itself, a kit of cables formed by two single

pieces is available upon request and can be ordered separately.

Connection between the two pieces produces a closing towards the GND of “wakeup” input: Edor

recognizes this event and, after a period of maximum 4 minutes, it will open the serial menu.

Namely:

- Internal bar hold (code S3251786): it has 4 cables with terminals at one end to be connected to

the female terminal block with 5 poles for EDOR M3; at the other end, there is a circular military

connector with 6 IP66 poles with a panel and relative cover (for wall-mounting).

It also includes a closing cap and a seal for panel mounting.

Page 23: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 23 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

To preserve the IP66 isolation, a circular military 6 poles connector with its cover is used.

- External cable to PC (cod.S3251785): The connection of this connector with its counterpart, gives

the “wakeup” input to the Edor: the unit recognizes this event and, after a period of maximum four

minutes, it will open the serial menu.

3. MAINTENANCE

3.1. Basic model calibration (manual operator calibration)

Calibration has the purpose to increase the accuracy of the device using a sample gas cylinder. This

procedure is described below:

1. make sure the dip switches are positioned as follows: Dip 1 OFF – Dip 2 OFF – Dip 3 ON – Dip 4

OFF;

2. connect the sample cylinder (use factory CPL cylinders only) with a stream set to 40L/h (like the

gas stream blowing under a domestic burner head) to the connector of the manual valve

(positioned next to the measurement solenoid valve connector) then open the manual valve;

3. press button 1 to start the calibration procedure;

4. wait for the DL3 LED to stop blinking signalling that the settling phase is complete;

5. when both the DL3 and DL4 LEDs are blinking simultaneously, open the calibration valve by

turning the upper knob. Gas will be heard leaking from the upper side of the head;

6. when both the DL3 and DL2 LEDs stop blinking, close the manual valve and disconnect the sample

cylinder.

The procedure ends with the sending of a calibration report via SMS (signalled by the blinking DL5 LED)

and all LEDs are switched off.

3.2. Calibration with the Sampling System

In this configuration the procedure is automatic and periodical (when programmed automatically, based

on the desired settings, it is performed as the first activity of the day during the months of May and

September included) or as the first activity of the afternoon - after 11 am - during all the other months).

However, if necessary, calibration may be performed through the external control unit by following the

procedure below:

1. make sure the dip switches are positioned as follows: Dip 1 OFF – Dip 2 OFF – Dip 3 ON – Dip 4

OFF;

2. connect the sample cylinder (use factory CPL cylinders only) with a stream set to 40L/h (like the

gas stream blowing under a domestic burner head) to the connector of solenoid valve No. 2,

positioned next to the measurement solenoid valve connector;

3. press button 1 to start the calibration procedure.

The procedure is totally automatic. The blinking DL3 LED indicates the stable wait zero phase, while the

successive blinking of both the DL3 and DL2 LEDs indicates that the valve is opened and the actual

calibration is initiated.

The sample cylinder is equipped with a pressure switch to prevent calibrations when the cylinder is empty

that would void the procedure and compromise the sensor’s efficacy.

The procedure ends with the sending of a calibration report via SMS (signalled by the blinking DL5 LED)

and all LEDs are switched off.

IMPORTANT: the concentration of odorant of the sample cylinder must be the same as the one

configured. In case of doubts, check the system and/or repeat the configurations.

4. USER GUIDE

4.1. Quick application guide

For basic Edor programming via SMS, i.e. to set the ID and the telephone numbers of the centre and the

on-call technician, refer to paragraph 2.4 “Quick programming and start-up”.

4.2. Communication type

Edor always communicates via SMS, both for outgoing calls (remote-reading, alarms, reports) and for

incoming calls (programming and remote controls). Typically, communication occurs between the Centre

and Edor, with the only exception for the alarm Sms messages that are sent by the device to the on-call

technician.

However, since sms messages are text messages, it is possible to use a normal cell phone as a Centre to

receive data from Edor and to send the settings, even if the messages are formatted to optimize

communication with the machine and not for an operator.

The following table presents a summary of SMS types:

Type Function I/O Recipient Content

A Daily measurement OUT Centre Dispatched: AUTOMATICALLY daily Data regarding the four measurements carried out on the last day. It is sent automatically once every day at a preset time (default: 7:00 am)

B Extemporary measurement

OUT Centre Dispatched: AUTOMATICALLY every <n> hours (optional) or UPON REQUEST Data regarding the most recent measurement carried out. It can be automatically sent after every measurement (except after the last one, which is followed by an A-type sms) or can be requested via sms (type N) or it can be commanded by an on-site operator.

C Parameters OUT Centre Dispatched: UPON REQUEST Report of Edor configuration parameters; including ID, the numbers of the centre, of the call-on operator and alarm thresholds. It is sent only if expressly requested via a command sms (N type)

D Parameters OUT Centre Dispatched: UPON REQUEST or AUTOMATICALLY (after self-calibration) Report on Edor’s configuration parameters, such as ID, cell numbers of centre, on-call operator and alarm thresholds. It is sent only if expressly requested via a command sms (N type) or, in case of the Sampling System model, it is sent automatically after the device performs a self-calibration procedure

E Events OUT Centre Dispatched: AUTOMATICALLY (after type A o type B messages, only if active) Report regarding the last 10 events performed on the equipment. Messages are sent automatically only if this functionality is enabled by the firmware, otherwise the message will never be sent.

F Totalizers OUT Centre Dispatched: AUTOMATICALLY (after type C) Report on the measurement totalisers, such as the number of measures performed by the sensor, sensor activation date and much more.

ACK Acknowledgement configuration

OUT Edor Dispatched: AUTOMATICALLY (after receiving programming sms) It indicates that Edor has received a programming sms and has processed it correctly.

Page 27: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 27 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

ALL Alarm OUT On-call operator

Dispatched: AUTOMATICALLY (after an alarm) Text sms that report the ID of the Edor device and the type of alarm detected. They are sent after each sampling if the alarm occurs twice in a row. The device recognizes the following alarms: maximum threshold exceeded and below minimal threshold.

CFG Program., Commands

IN Edor Dispatched: AS NEEDED (by the Centre to Edor) A series of programming instructions and commands that are usually sent by the Centre to the Edor unit

For the description of the communication protocol via SMS, for reading and writing parameters, request

the “Edor SMS Protocol” directly to CPL Concordia.

The ALL-type SMS is the only message sent directly to the on-call operators and signals the alarm of the

HIGH O.R. or LOW O.R. after two consecutive measurements above the high limit or below the low limit.

IMPORTANT! Programming sms should be used by quailed personnel only. The sending of

wrong commands could seriously compromise the machine’s operation and void the warranty.

4.3. Serial Console

The serial console is an Edor functionality that enables connection to any serial terminal; it is possible to

use, for instance, Hyperterminal, that is a standard accessory in Windows (it is normally accessed from

Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Communications).

If your PC does not have a physical RS232 port, you can use a "USB-RS232" converter. The model tested

and approved by CPL, which ensures the proper functioning of the system, is the "Digitus USB 2.0 to

Serial"; different models may not work properly.

IMPORTANT! The serial console must be used by specialized staff only. The sending of wrong

commands may seriously compromise the machine’s operation and void the warranty.

To connect the device, set the PC serial

terminal to 9600 baud, parity N, 8 bit of

data, 1 stop bit (9600-N-8-1);

then proceed as follows:

1. remove the lid of the monitoring unit

and identify the DB9 connector (9 pole

board) on the PCB;

2. position the dip-switches found on the

printed circuit board as shown: Dip 3

OFF – Dip 4 ON

3. connect the Edor to the PC using a

standard serial uncrossed cable: one

end of the cable should be connected to

the RS-232 port of the computer while

the other end is connected to the DB

connecter previously identified on the

Edor;

4. check that the Edor is switched on and

correctly initiated; see para .2.6

“Diagnostics”;

5. press one of the two buttons on the PCB

next to the battery connector.

Page 28: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 28 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

Alternatively, if the kit for external RS232 interface is present (para. 2.12 “Version with external RS232

interface”), configure the serial terminal on the PC and proceed as follows:

1. Connect the female DB9 connector of the “PC interface cable” to the COM port on the PC

2. Open the cap of the military connector of the “internal bar hold”

3. Connect the “PC interface cable” to the “internal bar hold”

4. The console appears on the terminal after a time ranging between two and four minutes

Now the menu of the serial console appears in the Reception window of the serial terminal. The values in

square brackets next to some commands are the values currently saved.

i Id Edor : it sets the device’s univocal ID code;

_ SN Edor : the control unit’s serial number (reserved);

S Sensor SN: it sets the serial number of the cell installed on the unit;

W Edor Name: it sets an univocal string on the Edor. This string is displayed in the alarm messages;

d Date/time: it sets the current date and time; Edor saves this setting even when it is not used for a

period of up to 36 hours;

M Modbus address: it sets the device’s modbus address

y Settings: Edor’s advanced settings (restricted to specialized technicians only). The improper use of this

command may seriously compromise the device’s functionality;

r Reset default : with this command, the type of reset is requested. It is possible to reset configuration

parameters, calibration parameters, or both; they will be replaced by default parameters. This command

is conceived to be used only in emergency conditions and must be followed by a reprogramming

procedure of the Edor unit;

c Cell : only in the GSM versions. It sets the cell phone number of the centre (data number) or o the on-

call operator (alarm number). Entering OFF will inhibit the related calls. We recommend setting the data

number to OFF;

h Log start: this sets the date and time of the first measurement of the 4 daily measurements (7:00

am);

l Log period: this sets the minutes that elapse between one measurement and the other; the standard

setting is set to 360 minutes (6 hours);

w OR alarm thresh: this sets the high and low thresholds for the odorization rate, when these

thresholds are exceeded the device sends and alarm to the on-call operator (if the relative contact

number is set);

s Sens.calib: to access the submenu of the calibration sensor; the submenu enables different calibration

modes. This function must be used by highly specialized staff only;

b Batt.calib: to access the calibration menu of the sensor of the battery level. This function must be

used by highly specialized staff only;

t PT100 calib: to access the calibration submenu for the PT100 temperature sensor. This function must

be used by highly specialized staff only;

a Autocal: to instantly activate the self-calibration procedure; the value indicated between square

brackets indicates whether the current settings enable the command or not;

k Autoc.period: to specify how many days must elapse between one self-calibration and the next (the

Sampling System is required);

j Ref.cyl.OR. : to set the nominal O.R. setting of the sample gas cylinder used for the local self-

calibration;

f Free-run (EV0 OFF) : this activates the continuous monitoring unit of the sensors on board the Edor,

WITHOUT opening a solenoid valve (i.e. the sensor that is not in the presence of gas); the displayed

values are O.R. (pure and compensated in temperature on the THT version), the power generated by the

Page 29: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 29 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

sensor, the temperature and life of sampling battery. The monitoring continues until the user presses the

<Send> button;

g Free-run (EV0 ON) : the same as above, except that the gas sampling valve is opened;

e Free-run (EV1 ON) : the same as above, except that the Sampling System solenoid valve is opened;

m Measure: this activates the network sampling procedure on the network; the system performs a

measurement as if it were in normal operation mode;

n Measure + sms : available on GSM versions only. The same as previous point, except that the end of

the procudure is followed by measurement sms (Type B, see also para. 4.2 “Communication Type”);

N Cyl.meas+sms: the same as the previous point, but the measurement must be carried out on the

sample gas cylinder. In the models without GSM, measurement is not followed by an SMS;

p Sms di report : available only with the GSM versions. It sends a report via SMS. It is possible to

choose whether to send a configuration sms (type C) or calibration sms (type D); for further information

read para. 4.2 “Communication Type”;

q Logs : it displays the events log; then Edor’s measurement log, with related reset dates; the first log

contains 200 events, the second contains 248 measurements. Each data contained in the log is connected

to its corresponding date;

o Reset logs : it resets the events log and the measurements log;

Q Sensor&Batt.counter: it displays the counters of the sensor and battery life;

O Reset sens.counter: it resets the life counter of the installed cell;

T Reset batt.counter. : it resets the life counter of the installed battery;

v Filed GSM : available only in the GSM versions. It activates the GSM signal detection procedure

(particularly useful to exactly check the strength of the signal received by the device); in the first phase

the modem is switched on and registration is checked; then the signal is shown at regular intervals;

X Exit : it closes the serial console and returns Edor to normal operation; it is required when you need to

perform a reset of the measurement performed during the current day before disabling the serial console

(if the external RS232 interface kit is present, and no other operations should be performed, disconnect

after removing the “PC interface cable” from the “internal bar hold” and tighten the “stopper” );

Z Reset & Exit: it closes the serial console with a machine reset; all measurements are suspended until

the time of the next log (if the external RS232 interface kit is present, and no other operations should be

performed, disconnect after removing the “PC interface cable” from the “internal bar hold” and tighten the

“stopper”);

! BLoader : it resets the Edor from the Bootloader level;

C Call : available only with the GSM versions. It can programme the call to the data centre; the command

requires the entering of date, time and contact number of the data centre (it is therefore possible to

specify a different number other than the ones normally used for the remote-reading). This command is

normally used to enable communication between Edor and CPL’s technical assistance office;

D GSM Direct : available only with the GSM versions. It enables to launch a direct connection with the

GSM modem on board the device; in this way you can communicate with the modem using the normal AT

commands;

I Test EXT input : it enables to test the external wakeup input using the external RS232 interfacing

cable (para 2.12 “Version with external RS232 interface cable”);

B Stability: stability field, in bit, for the measurement period. A value that is excessively low may

produce an O.R. below the actual figures, a value which is too high may produce longer measurement

times thereby shortening battery life;

A SetOutANA : available only with models featuring analogue outlets. It enables the input in the setting

environment of the full scale “O.R.” and “Temeprature” outlets (“mg/ smc” or “°C” associated to the

minimum (4mA) and maximum (20mA) outlets) , and settings of the “Zero” and “Uno” of the outlet and

“Conformation measurement completed” (mA required for “Zero” and “Uno” levels at output) (para. 2.10

“Version with 4-20mA analogue outlets”);

Page 30: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 30 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

E TestOutANA : available only in the models with analogue outlets. It sets the three analogue ports to

the “12mA” value. When the user exits the screen, it resets the three outlets to the previous value.

There are five methods to access the remote console via GSM:

1. Dip4 ON+Dip3 ON+Button (a call is sent to the number saved in the settings)

2. Dip4 ON+Dip3 OFF+Command C from console (to set the time to call the number saved in the

settings)

3. Dip4 OFF+Dip3 OFF+Command C from console (to set the time to call the number saved in the

settings)

4. Dip4 OFF+Dip3 OFF+sms (the calling time is set together with the number to call)

5. Dip4 OFF+Dip3 OFF+riception data call (in the 230V version, the modem is kept active during the

standby status: when in this state, the Edor unit receives a data call, the console can be accessed be

entering a password (para. 4.6 “Direct GSM connection via SMS”)

By default the number is set to Cpl’s number (EdorCentral, +393351215406)

4.4. Changing the date via SMS

You can change the date of an Edor unit, with firmware releases higher than 150, by sending an SMS

having the following format;

EN<ID 8 digits>;O=<sign><number of seconds>;

example to set the time back to 1 hour: EN00020113;O=-3600;

IMPORTANT! Make sure the serial console is used by qualified staff only. Sending the wrong

commands may seriously compromise the machine’s operation and void the warranty.

4.5. Modbus table for versions with RS485 serial outlet

The RTU modbus protocol is available exclusively in the Edor version with external power supply (DC/DC),

RS485 without modem.

This functionality enables to read, via local serial mode, the values of the last O.R. measured and the

current configurations, besides changing the main operation parameters and request for measurements

and/or calibrations. This reading function is also used to have the diagnostics and the temperature of the

latest measurements performed, in addition to the gain value of the cell (indication of the life of the

sesnor).

Edor is a modbus slave device, i.e. it is always attending a query, the maximum frequency of queries is

10 per seconds.

The implemented functions are:

Reading of multiple logs: modbus 0x03 function

Writing of multiple logs: modbus 0x10 function

Page 31: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 31 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

With the 0x03 function you can read, through a single query, all the data regarding the latest

measurements and the current configurations. The 0x03 function enables a maximum number of 125

registries (more than actually needed) with a single query.

With the 0x10 function, you can reconfigure the equipment and request for extemporary measurements

and/or calibrations with one single query.

To change only one parameter, in the writing case, it is necessary to set all the registries not interested in

the NULL value (0xFFFF) and the parameter you wish to change to a valid value.

Note

Electricity and/or gas calibration parameters are available exclusively from the local serial menu. In fact,

calibration cannot be made without the presence of an operator because additional tools are required.

4.6. Direct GSM connection via SMS

Because the system is battery-powered, it is necessary to enable Edor to send a call via SMS, indicating

the telephone number to use and the “appointment” hour. The Edor unit receives the SMS sent the day

after, immediately before the measurement that occurs at the time of the “Log Start” (by default this time

is set to 7:00 am) and will configure itself for the call.

The SMS to be sent has the following format: EN<ID 8 digits>;C=yyyymmddhhnnss;<cell phone

number>;

example: EN00112233;C=20070329121000;+393355710485;

this message tells Edor to call 335 5710485 at 12:10:00 on 29 March 2007.

After receiving the message, the Edor unit will send a confirmation SMS to the centre. Once it has

checked that the message is received, you must wait for the Edor call.

Log number 83

Page 34: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 34 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

After receiving the call (and therefore after seeing the RING on hyperterminal/terminal), send the ATA

command (send). After the CONNECT 9600 string, Edor waits for the BOOT command (for firmware

updates with hyperterminl) or MENU (for the remote console with the terminal).

To send the SMS, press AT+CMGS=<number> followed by enter; the ‘>’ character appears, then digit the

message text (or use the macro) and press CTRL+Z.

In Edor 230V you will not need to send an SMS. This version, in fact, is equipped with a modem that is

active even when Edor is in standby mode (it is switched off only during measurements and free-runs).

You can therefore send a data call directly to Edor using “ATDT <Edor number>” from your own modem.

The reception of the ‘PW?’ string means that the connection with Edor has been completed successfully.

Digit the password (not followed by “ENTER”) to access the menu, or to update the firmware with

hyperterminal as required.

5. EDOR CENTRAL

5.1. Functionality

EdorCentral is the Windows application that allows full management of Edor peripherals, both for remote-

reading and also for the local and remote programming of the device. Remote-reading and remote-

programming require a GSM modem connected to the serial port of the computer.

The software, designed to guarantee maximum ease of use is made up of an integrated environment

which collects all the information on the peripherals installed in the main window. From this main window,

with a single click of the mouse, the application’s various functions, as listed below, can be accessed:

State of network and alarms: this allows the list of peripherals to be viewed, characterized by

ID, peripheral name, most recent odorization remote-reading with relevant diagnostics and date of

reading. In the network display, immediately visible are the peripherals for alarm, pre-alarm or

lack of communication.

Peripheral details: the registry and technical details of the peripheral can be displayed;

moreover, there are also the full data of the periodical remote-readings and the configuration and

calibration reports.

Periodical remote-readings: every day the peripheral sends the centre an SMS containing the

data of the daily sampling, plus some status information. Among the remote-read data, the O.R.

(odorization rate) assumes special significance and the relevant diagnosis, gas temperature and

measurement of the GSM signal.

Reporting: all the personal, technical and measurement data can be exported in text format and

converted directly into Microsoft Excel worksheets. Various types of report are available.

Serial console: by connecting an Edor to the computer’s serial port, it is possible to have access

to the instrument console: this is an application loaded on the device, which allows all its settings

and functionalities to be checked.

Sending controls by SMS: it is possible to send SMS to the peripherals to modify their

configuration, to compel parameter reports to be sent and to compel self-calibration. The

peripheral receives the control SMS once a day at the same time as the SMS of daily sampling

data.

Permission for access and multi-use: access to the application is subject to a login procedure

(request for username and password), by which the current user is recognized, with whom a

personalized configuration and a series of licences are associated.

Events log: all the events of the system are memorized in the application database and can be

consulted at any time, in a selective manner.

5.2. System requirements

EdorCentral is an application designed for the “.NET” platform, so it is necessary that this framework is

installed on the PC. A copy of the framework is found on the installation CD, and can be installed at the

same time as effecting installation. Remember that the “.NET” framework works only on the operating

systems “Microsoft Windows 2000”, “Microsoft Windows XP” and later versions.

EdorCentral store the data into a SQL database, so it is necessary that “SQL Server 2008 R2” or higher is

installed on the PC. Alternatively you can install “SQL Server” on a different server accessible from the PC.

If EdorCentral is the only application that requires a SQL database you can install an “Express version”, it

does not involve the purchase of additional licenses (because the database is below the limit of 4 GB).

Page 38: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 38 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

5.3. Installation and first start-up

Installing EdorCentral is very easy: it is enough to insert the installation CD and launch the SETUP.EXE

application. The application will act to copy all the files necessary for the software to function on to the

hard disk in the folder Programmi/CplConcordia/EdorXXX (XXX is the version).

Once the application has been installed, it is launched by clicking on the icon

automatically created on the desktop. EdorCentral will display a login window (request for

username and password); the default user is admin and the relative password is admin.

It is recommended that a new administrator user is added as soon as possible and then

to remove the admin user. See the paragraphs “Login” and “user management” for

further information.

5.4. Login

Upon start up of EdorCentral a login window

is displayed where it is necessary to specify

your own username and password. This

procedure enables the application to upload

the personalized configuration of the user

as well as to enable or disable some of its

functionalities according to the user’s login

privileges.

In the dialog window are also given the

version of the program and the release

date, together with the name of the

company and the licence number of the

software.

Once the user name and password have

been entered, press the ‘Accedi’ [Login]

button in order to go to the application’s

main window.

The password is memorized by distinguishing between upper case and lower case letters; it is

recommended, therefore, to take special care when keying them in.

5.5. User management

EdorCentral adjusts its behaviour and its configuration

according to the user connected. The configuration set up by

each user is memorized independently and is recharged each

and every time the user performs the login procedure (see

previous paragraph).

As far, however, as the accessible or inaccessible functions

are concerned, the mechanism used is slightly different.

Each user is associated to a category, characterized by an

increasing level of access. The categories are three: user,

technician, and administrator.

The user can only view the remotely read data and prepare

reports. He or she can in no way enter, modify or remove

peripherals from the archives. The user cannot program the

devices either locally or remotely. Obviously he or she cannot

perform any action on the application’s user management

area.

In addition to the user’s permits, the technician can work on

the peripheral registry, making entries, changes and

Page 39: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 39 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

deletions. He is also qualified to program the devices both locally and remotely. The only function not

accessible to the technician is user management, which is a prerogative of the administrator.

The administrator has full access to the functionality of EdorCentral. The only operation not permitted is

the removal of his own user profile; this is to ensure that there is always at least one user with

administrator access.

On the User management window, which is accessible solely to administrators, it is possible to perform

normal registry operations. By clicking on the button ‘Nuovo’ [New] the window Nuovo utente [New user]

is enabled.

The details required for a new user are the username, which

must be made up only of alphanumeric characters (numbers

or letters), the level of access and the password, which must

be keyed in twice as confirmation.

Once a username has been entered, it is not possible to

change it later; it will be necessary to delete the user and

create a new one with the same level of access.

The window Modifica utente [Change user] is very similar to

that of the insertion one, except for two details: the insertion

slot for the user name is inhibited and in the event that the

password is changed, insertion of the current password is

required.

When a user is deleted, the events saved in the name of this

user are kept; see in this respect, para. 5.11 “Events log”.

5.6. Application configuration

The configuration parameters of the application are collected in this window. The window can be called up

by the user at any time or opens automatically the first time a user launches EdorCentral.

In the box on the right are collected the

communication parameters with the GSM

modem: modem type, the serial port to

which the modem is connected, the baud

rate, data bits, parity and stop bits. More

advanced settings, such as handshaking

and error controls, inasmuch as they are

superfluous in this type of application,

are not taken into consideration. The

most widespread configuration is the one

given in the figure, i.e. 9600-8-N-1.

The selection box “Lavora in modalità

disconnessa” [Work in disconnected

mode] ensures that the application

releases the serial port control after it

has been used; this allows other

applications designed with the same logic

to function at the same time as

EdorCentral.

The options contained in the box on the right are the setting of the serial port to be used for local

programming of the, the signal threshold of the alarms (allowing differentiation between pre-alarm and

alarm peripherals) and the language selection box.

For correct functioning, use a Siemens TC35i or Cinterion TC35i or Siemens TC65 modem with RS232

port, or Digicom USB Wave GPRS M modem.

Page 40: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 40 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

5.7. Installation of RS232 serial modems

For the only types of modems that have RS232 connection ("Siemens TC35", "Cinterion TC35i", and

"Siemens TC65"), no action is required prior to installation / configuration: at the startup the program,

automatically sends the AT commands required for proper initialization of the modem. It is therefore

enough to verify that, in the main window of the program, the receiving indicator is green.

If your PC does not have a physical RS232 port, you can use a "USB-RS232" converter. The model tested

and approved by CPL, which ensures the proper functioning of the system, is the "Digitus USB 2.0 to

Serial"; different models may not work properly.

5.8. Installation of USB modem

Only for the modem type "Digicom USB Wave GPRS M", you must perform a series of preliminary

operations prior to use it with EdorCentral.

Install the driver and the program to access to the Internet via the modem. Do not plug the modem into

the USB socket until the installer does not ask.

You can find the driver for Windows XP and lower operating system on the CD into the folder

“driver_modem_digicom_usb\Win-XP”, while for Windows 7 and higher, the driver is into the folder

“driver_modem_digicom_usb\Win-7”. Both folders are in the main directory of the CD.

At the end of the procedure the new device will be added into the modem section.

To set the serial port right click on "EDGE Modem", select "Properties", navigate to the tab "Advanced"

and finally press the "Advanced Port Settings ...".

Page 41: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 41 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

Now open a terminal serial communication program (eg Hyperterminal for Windows XP) and set the serial

port just selected with the following parameters: 460800-8-N-1.

Send the command “AT+IPR = 9600” to set the baud rate to 9600 bps. At this point, the modem will not

respond to AT commands, you must change the settings of the serial: 9600-8-N-1.

At the startup, the program automatically sends the AT commands required for proper initialization of the

modem. It is therefore enough to verify that, in the main window of the program, the receiving indicator

is green.

5.9. Remote-reading peripherals (main window)

This window shows all the main information regarding the peripherals and remote-reading options. This

page also lets you access all the other pages available in the programme.

NOTE: some of the control buttons shown in the figure above could be hidden if the user is not logged as an administrator.

Control buttons are grouped by functionality: some buttons control the master data of peripherals (New,

Modify, Remove, Update), Edor service buttons (Reports, Console, Controls), the system’s buttons (Users,

Events log, Configuration) and the buttons regarding the application’s general operation (In background,

Exit).

The Ricezione [Reception] button is positioned away from the rest of the tabs: it is used to allow the

modem connected to the PC to enable or disable an SMS. When this button is in the OFF position, the

reception indicator light is turned off, whereas when the button is in the ON position, the reception

indicator flickers at regular intervals to indicate that the system is connected to the modem (for

configuration problems, SIM card, GSM registration or other hardware failures): in this case the reception

light indicator is a red fixed light.

The In background button is used to run the application in background mode: the EdorCentral window

closes and a tray-bar icon (see figure) appears; click on the icon to open the programme again and start

normal operation mode.

The Exit button closes the application.

The buttons with the suspension dots (…) open the window regarding the corresponding function; for

further descriptions of these functions, refer to the related paragraphs.

In the PERIPHERAL window you will find the information for all the peripheral units installed on the

device with relative ID, description, company, installation location and the SIM telephone number entered

in the peripheral device; this page also contains the data regarding the latest measurement, i.e. the

measured T.O., diagnostics and reading date.

The peripheral units are sorted by status, marked by the coloured indicator next to the ID: at top of the

list there are the peripherals affected by an alarm, then there are the ones in pre-alarm and finally there

are the peripherals in normal mode. If the icon is blue, this means that the day of the last reading is

before the current date.

If the icon is green the device does not have any active alarms (NORMAL OPERATION).

A yellow icon indicates that the device measured an odorant rate above or below the alarm threshold

previously configured, but serious anomalies are not present (PRE-ALARM).

A red icon means that the device measured an odorant rate above or below the alarm threshold

previously configured for a number of times above the one set in the configuration window (item “Alarm

after … errors”). The red icon can also mean that the battery is low or that there may be a communication

problem with the measurement sensor (ALARM).

The REMOTE-READING window at the bottom of the page contains the remote-reading data regarding

the peripheral unit selected from the upper list. Data are sorted by decreasing date, that is to say, from

the last measurement carried out until the date specified with the initial date selector. Data are divided

into three screens:

Measurements – this page lists all the measurement data sent by the Editor units on site; some of

the most important one include O.R.* (odorization rate), Temp (temperature), Batt (battery voltage),

Diag (diagnostics) and Qy (gsm signal strength on a scale of 0-31).

Below is a list of parameter descriptions:

Date/Time: date and time of the measurement carried out;

OR: pure rate measured in the network;

OR*: rate measured in the network, compensated in temperature;

Z and Z*: zero measurement, pure compensated in temperature;

Temp: temperature at the time of measurement;

5.10. New/Modify Peripherals

This dialog window is used to enter or change a peripheral device by acting directly on the database

containing the peripheral master files.

The fields displayed in this dialog box include the peripheral’s ID code, description, location and company

where the device is or will be installed. The last field contains the number of the SIM card installed on the

Edor unit.

The ID must be the same as the one assigned to the peripheral by the installer or during the

programming phase. The ID may contain only alphanumerical characters (numbers or letters); the

maximum length is 8 characters. This code is univocal and cannot be assigned to more than one

peripheral.

5.11. Exporting and printing

The export dialog window enables the user to create a text file that can be imported directly as a

Microsoft Excel sheet. There are three different types of reports, each of which can be personalized by

entering the amount of data required by the user.

The three type of reports are:

Tabella T.O. [O.R. Table]: this table show

the columns listing the selected peripherals,

while the rows indicate daily average values

of O.R.; with this function you can generate

a comparison chart to compare the

odorization rates measured by different Edor

units.

Tabella periferiche [Peripheral table]: this

is a summary table on the current status of

the selected Edor units; here you will find all

the data present in the main window in the

Periferiche (Peripheral) dialog box.

Dettagli periferiche [Peripheral details]:

the selected peripherals are selected one by

one and each can be viewed according to:

master file, calibration data and configuration

data. These data are displayed in the

Telelettura (Remote-reading) window in the

home page.

5.12. Serial Console (local programming)

This page will let you programme Edor units locally, by accessing the device’s serial console, i.e. an

application installed on board the device to control functions and settings.

IMPORTANT! Improper use may seriously compromise the device’s operation; we therefore

recommend that the console is used only by specialized staff and, in any case, with the utmost

attention.

To program the device locally, enter EdorCentral’s

Serial console, then follow the instructions below

(reproduced here from para. 4.3 “Serial Console”,

for consultation sake):

1. remove the lid of the monitoring unit and

identify the DB9 connector (9 pole board)

on the PCB;

2. position the dip-switches found on the

printed circuit board as shown: Dip 3 OFF –

Dip 4 ON

3. connect the Edor to the PC using a standard

serial uncrossed cable: one end of the cable

should be connected to the RS-232 port of

the computer while the other end is

connected to the DB connecter previously

identified on the Edor;

4. check that the Edor is switched on and

correctly initiated; see para .2.6

“Diagnostics”;

5. press one of the two buttons on the PCB

next to the battery connector

Now the menu of the serial console appears in the

Reception box on the serial terminal. To launch the

various commands it is necessary to enter the

corresponding letter into the Transmission box and

press <Invio> [send] or the Invia [Send] button.

To perform the different programs it is sufficient to

follow the indications that are supplied from time

to time in the console.

For further information, refer to para. 4.3 “Serial

Console”.

5.13. Remote programming and remote-controls

The remote programming dialog window lets you send

parameters and controls to one or more Edor units

installed on site. Communication occurs via SMS, and

one SMS is sent for each selected peripheral to

programme.

The Peripheral window contains all the Edor units that

can be programmed remotely (only the peripherals

with a telephone number in their master files are

listed). Hold down the <Ctrl> key and press the down

arrow to select a peripheral.

The bottom of the screen contains a page with all the

different types of parameters or controls that can be

sent to the peripherals, which are: configuration,

calibration, remote controls and advanced settings.

Each individual screen is described in detail in the

following chapters.

CONFIGURATION parameters

ID Periferica [Peripheral ID]: the peripheral’s univocal identifier used for archiving and programming

purposes. Since this is an univocal code, you cannot program for more than one peripheral if this

parameter is set;

Nr. cell. Dati [Data cell phone]: the cell phone number where the Edor units send the measurements,

configuration reports and calibration

reports;

Nr. cell. allarmi [Alarm cell phone]:

the cell phone number of the on-call

operator where the Edor unit sends

the alarm SMS messages (you can

enter two different cell phone

numbers separated by a semi-comma

to enable two on-call operators at the

same time);

Ora telelettura [Remote-reading

time]: the time when the daily measurement data are sent;

Frequenza di log [Log frequency]: the sampling interval frequency by the Edor expressed in minutes,

typically set to 360; we recommend you do NOT change this parameter;

Soglia bassa/alta T.O. [High/Low O.R. threshold]: the alarm thresholds set by the Edor unit triggering

a SMS to the on-call operator.

CALIBRATION parameters

Sensibilità manuale [Manual

sensitivity]: this parameter enables

you to overwrite the device’s manual

setting; basically it is used to

completely reset sensitivity. We

recommend you use this parameter

only under critical circumstances. For

the TBM sensor multiply the value by

10;

Page 48: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 48 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

Sensibilità [Sensitivity]: this is the electrochemical sensor’s sensitivity, expressed in nA/mg. For the

TBM sensor multiply the value by 10;

Periodo di autocalibrazione [Self-calibration period]: the number of days elapsing between one

calibration event and the next (Edor must be equipped with a Sampling System);

T.O. gas campione [Gas sample O.R.]: the nominal rate of the Sampling System cylinder multiplied by

10.

REMOTE-CONTROLS

Esegui auto calibrazione [perform self-

calibration]: this control forces the

system to perform a self-calibration

event; the operation occurs as soon as

the peripheral receives the SMS, i.e.

before the dispatch of the daily

measurement SMS;

Richiesta report

configurazione/calibrazione [request

configuration/Calibration report]: this

control forces the Edor unit to send a configuration/calibration SMS; the operation occurs only after

the daily measurement SMS is sent;

Ripristina configurazione/calibrazione di default [reset default configuration/calibration]: this control

resets the configuration/calibration parameters to default values;

Richiedi ultimi 5 giorni di misure [request last 5 days of measurements]: this control forces the Edor

system to send the measurement data of the last 5 days (this function must be enabled at Edor

hardware level).

ATTENTION! Default configuration and calibration parameters can be reset only to reboot the

machine after a failure or a critical situation; after resetting the machine, it

should be programmed and calibrated again (to be performed on site).

ADVANCED SETTINGS

Disabilita invio sms [Disable SMS

sending]: this command prevents the

Edor from sending measurement and

report SMS notifications; alarm SMS to

on-call operators, instead, remain

enabled;

Invia sms frequenti [Send frequent

SMS]: this command forces the Edor

unit to send a measurement SMS at

very sampling procedure; the final

measurement SMS scheduled to be sent at the end of the day will be dispatched as usual;

Abilita sms assistenza [Enable assistance SMS]: this function enables the sending of a supervisory

SMS to the CPL assistance centre for a closer analysis of the problems at the installation site;

Abilita auto calibrazione [Enable self-calibration]: this notifies the Edor unit that a Sampling System is

installed and that the device enables periodical self-calibration procedures and self-calibration via

remote-control SMS;

Elettrovalvole a basso consumo [Low-energy solenoid valves]: this setting tells the Edor unit the type

of solenoid valve installed on the machine;

Batteria [Battery]: it tells the Edor unit the type of battery installed.

Page 49: User Manual EDOR v.3.9 ENG (1).pdf

EDOR USER MANUAL Page 49 of 53 V 3.9 of 20/06/2013

IMPORTANT! We recommend you enable the advanced settings only if strictly necessary and

in any case under close supervision of the manufacture’s assistance centre or of

specialised staff.

DIRECT CONNECTION

This screen lets you arrange an “appointment” for a direct connection to the device.

You can set the date and time at which you wish to be called and the phone number associated to your

modem.

5.14. Events Log

The events log collects all the actions performed by both the users and the system. Every action is saved

together with date and time, user and a short description. You can select the time frame in which the

events appear.

The viewing of the events depends on the type of user accessing the screen: users with administrator

privileges can view all the events in the log and filter events by user. Users with lower privilege levels

(technician or user) can see only the events generated by the system and their own events; they cannot

see the events generated by other users.

5.15. Edor Diagnostics

The table below describes the meaning of the “diag” column in EdorCentral. This word indicates the status

of the device at the time of the measurement. The value is displayed in HEX format and is therefore

converted into binary.

Bit Hex Description

0 1 O.R. measurement out-of-threshold (>99 mg/sm3)

1 2 O.R. measurement negative

2 4 Temperature out-of-limit (<-20°C or above 50°C)

3 8 Zero O.R. out-of-threshold (>99 mg/m3)

4 1 Zero O.R. negative

5 2 Sample cylinder measurement underway

6 4 Measured O.R. below low threshold

7 8 Measured O.R. above high threshold

8 1 Battery voltage below low threshold (for alkaline batteries)

9 2 Gs sensitivity self-calibration under low threshold

10 4 Gs sensitivity self-calibration above high threshold

11 8 Zero on self-calibration below low threshold

12 1 Zero on self-calibration above high threshold

13 2 Self-calibration completed successfully

14 4 Problems with connection to the sensor module

15 8 Cylinder’s low level on self-calibration

Example:

Diag = 0252

Converted in binary looks like: 0000 0010 0101 0010

In other words the active alarms are 1, 4, 6 and 9, i.e.: “O.R. measurement negative”, “Zero O.R.

negative”, “Measured O.R. under low threshold”, and “Gs sensitivity self-calibration below low threshold”.
