1 Description

For remote maintenance via the analog or ISDN network select at TELE-Router spot a Take TELERouter as a secure VPN gateway between the automation network and the corporate network, connect the network nodes via the 4 switched network ports routes between two networks using the WAN ports the TELE-router holds as an NTP server S7 Time is always up to date ProfiNet also supported
!Attention!
At the analog or ISDN jack ONLY must the device type according to a cable are plugged! Nevertheless, if a non-device type appropriate cable plugged in, it can lead to damage at Hardware . The device type identified by the ticked box and the label on the sleeve.

2 Installation

For the power supply to the device is either the included AC adapter or an existing local power supply with min. 24V DC 350mA power connected to the 3-pin green plug. In the included AC plug adapter the power poles are marked with colored sleeves.

The PLUS-pole with the color “red”, the MINUS pole with the color “blue”. Connect the POSITIVE pole of the left screw terminal and the NEGATIVE pole on the right (outer) screw terminal. The middle connector is used to ground and must be connected to PE.

This connector is an autosensing 10/100 Mbit/s connector. For the connection to a Hub or a network connector, you should use a socalled patch-cable (both sided RJ-45, 1to1, shielded).

When connecting the telephone, the cable with the black (TAE-)plug is plugged in the telephone socket (N-contact). Please note that with some plugs a locking device has to be removed with a screwdriver in order to extract the plug from the TAE-socket. The other side, a so-called western-plug, has to be plugged, with the ejector up, in the small hole of the modem. You will hear how the locking device latches. In order to extract the western-plug, simply press down the locking lug and extract the plug.

3 Introduction

TeleRouter is a scalable router with 4 x LAN - switch port and 1 x WAN port. Optionally can be installed an analog or ISDN modem

Via the integrated web interface, you can configure and operate TeleRouter. Applications for TeleRouter are e.g. Gateway / Connect / remote maintenance of

automation networks profinet networks or standard Ethernet networks

Especially TeleRouter supports Simatic S7 systems from Siemens. With a few simple steps TeleRouter is ready for the desired mode. The optional analog or ISDN modem also enables operation as a dial-up (dial-in) router. For TeleRouter are available extension modules depending on the mode.


4 Hardware performance

In the standard version TeleRouter is configured with a WAN port and 4 LAN ports equipped as a switch. The following operating modes are possible.


Equipped with a modem (analog or ISDN), in addition to the standard features the TELE-ROUTER can be used as dial (dial-in) router. .


image005.jpg
In the configuration can be set the network, routing mode, etc. The data entry forms are self-explanatory as a rule. We are glad to accept suggestions from users to make operation even easier.

4.3.1 System button, Reset system

Under the item System button, you have two options which are allowed when the button is pressed, at least one option must be selected:
 System start options

allow factory settings Checked The device can be set to the delivery condition
Allow start by default Checked The device is set to the already stored basic settings

Attention!
Use one of the 4 switch ports to configure it because it may happen that the WAN port is no longer accessible
Do not leave the unit in operation. Disconnect the device from the production network and perform the reset in an autarkic environment. The configuration computer and the device should While not connected to the company network

No worries we do not take any work rest.
The button hides between WAN and LAN ports (small hole). Only the activated options are available.

Proceed as follows:

  • E.g. Office clamps
  • Make the device de-energized!
  • Insert the clasp in the hole
  • turn back on
  • When the four LED's go out and only the power LED is on, hold down the button with the office clip until all four LEDs flash fast
  • Release the button
  • Now appears a sort of selection. When the button is pressed in the desired state, the desired action is performed
    • Basic setting
      • LED S3 (bottom right) flashes
        • The device boots in the basic setting (network / IP addresses of the delivery state are used). Now you can make the desired changes to the network settings. However, these settings are not activated until the device is restarted.
    • Factory setting
      • LED Power and S3 flash
        • All settings are deleted


4.3.2 Settings

WAN/PPPOE IP routing via PPPoE at the WAN port
WAN/OVPN routing via OVPN at the WAN port
WAN/bridge Ethernet routing at the WAN port

If ProfiNet is enabled the TeleRouter is used to connect / remote maintenance of Profinet networks. Here is a schematic example.


The Profinet connection is implemented via a secure VPN connection. VPN connection can be established via WAN (TCP / IP) or WAN / PPPoE. To set a Profinet connection with 2 x message router: When ProfiNet is activated, telephone routers used to connect / remote maintenance of Profinet networks. Here is a schematic example.

  • Activate ProfiNet option on both devices.
  • Setting up a page as OpenVPN server and the other as OpenVPN client (see below)
  • Possibly activate DynDNS / PPPoE

The devices will connect automatically. Upon successful connection between the two can Profinet networks to communicate.
Attention!
It is no real-time data exchange possible.

image012.jpg
The WAN / LAN port can each receive up to 3 different IP addresses and subnets.
The port can also be used as a DHCP server or client. Here are entered the necessary data for the IP assignment.
For the operations of a DHCP / Server can be set fixed assignments MAC-IP-adress.
(See below, “DHCP fixed addresses). Next is to define which services are available at the port (web config), ping, ssh (only for developers)

image014.jpg
Here the modem parameters are defined. A modem connection is realized as a PPP connection. This allows also be used with TeleRouter alia dial routers. An ideal replacement for example is TeleService IE from Siemens. In the bottom line can be determined which services are available at the interface.

Parameter Possible setting Purpose

Substation Yes
No
Indicates whether the operation is on a PBX. If yes, the exchange should be stopped
Number of rings 0 - 5 Number of rings before the modem receives a call 0 = modem does not cancel
Country Select the country in which the device is operated The modem adapts to the technical characteristics of the telephone line in the respective country. As a rule, a choice is available between Europe / Germany and the USA
max Baudrate \\(Only analog modem) Maximum connection speed that the modem uses. With varying line quality, it may be more effective to operate the modem at a lower speed. This saves automatic negotiation of new modulation.
MSN/EAZ (only ISDN) Device number This is used to determine the terminal number that the ISDN modem responds to when calling. No input means the modem is always responding. You can call this number from your telephone provider or telephone system administrator

4.6.1 Using the LAN modem

As of version 1.65, the GPRS LAN modem LAN HT is supported.
Please note the following:

  • Connect the modem directly, to LAN or LAN port. For a LAN connection to be guaranteed
  • Enter the corresponding parameters for port and IP addresses
  • Enter the SIM-pin before connecting the modem, otherwise the SIM-card could fall into the PUK-state by sending an incorrect pin

Settings on LAN Modem. The following pictures show the settings of the LAN modem.
Use the modem's built-in WEB browser.
Important:

  • Set KeepAlive to max 10 seconds
  • Disable Telnet Cntrl
  • Remote Port = 0
  • IP address and port as configured in the TeleRouter




The connection status of the LAN modem is displayed in the system status:

  • TCP / IP connection
  • Logged-in network (e.g., T-Mobile)
  • Signal level


Define here the parameters for operation at a fixed DSL / cable modem. To overview and easier configuration are possible also the default gateway and DNS settings. As a rule, here are to set “auto PPPoE”.

Here can also be selected which services are available at the interface.

Parameter possible setting Purpose
PPPoE at the WAN yes
no
Determines whether the PPPoE WAN port should be active.
PPPoE-name of service optional is provided by your ISP. Usually free
user name as submitted by the provider
password as submitted by the provider


Parameter Possible setting Purpose
name name of the entry as desired
phone number number of the user By clicking on the number, the connection established
baud rate
(not at ISDN)
1200- 56kBit maximum connection speed with the partners
user user from the user list For the dial-up user access is be managed
dial-up user managed

In the phone book are managed all facilities with a modem connection. The connection with a partner is simply done by clicking on the phone number. User and password are maintained in the dial-in user database. Thus it possible to use a multi-user systems. TeleRouter can also be used for other dial-up PPP access.

image019.jpg
Normally the routing is allowed on all network subscribers. As soon as there is an entry in this table, an access will be possible only via the rules above. In the standard edition the routing is only possible for LAN or from LAN. See operating mode. The “operation of the Advanced” allows rules in both directions.

image021.jpg
If TeleRouter to be reached by OpenVPN as via the Internet, the Internet IP address of the device must be known. Meaningful here is not to work with a fixed IP address because the provider possibly allocate a new IP address here after new connection establishment (eg via PPPoE). It makes more sense here to access the device always with the same domain name.
The service provider DynDNS offers this service on the Internet. (http://www.dyndns.org). DynDNS = Dynamic DomainNameSever. For operating the service, you must sign in to DynDNS. For more information visit the website of DynDNS. Up to 5 dynamic IP adresses are free. If you need several, you can book at DynDNS for a fee a corresponding number of domain names. The price is very low, about 30, - U.S. $ per year.

Roughly speaking, this means:
You register at DynDNS the desired host name. e.g. meineanlage.dynalias.com. For your access you will receive an username and password. Enter this data in the setting of a DynDNS config and set “use DynDNS” to yes. The DynDNS refreshes in the selected time interval the data in DynDNS. If the Provider assign a new IP address that will be corrected again within this interval, thanks DynDNS. You reach your TeleRouter under the registered name, eg: meineanlage.dynalias.com.
Enter this domain name in your office device at the VPN users.

parameter possible setting purpose

image007.jpg
If the built-in DHCP server (at the WAN or LAN) is operated, it can be useful, to allocate specific IP stations always the same IP address. Here you can specify which MAC address is replaced by which IP address.


So that TeleRouter always runs with current time, we have implemented an NTP client. This allows TeleRouter automatically synchronize over the Internet or by any other available in the network time server date and time.

Parameter Possible setting Purpose
NTP client mode yes \ no switch NTP client on or off
name of service IP adress / domain name of the NTP Server Enter the IP address or the domain name of the desired NTP server. Be sure that this Server via the specified routed away accessible.
time zone timezone in which the TeleRouter operated necessary so TeleRouter has the correct local time

image025.jpg
In TeleRouter we have implemented the popular OpenVPN released under open source.
Detailed information can be found at http://www.openvpn.net.

Here I would like to briefly explain the function of OpenVPN, as implemented in TeleRouter.
Basically there are two modes of the OpenVPN: Server or client.
A server normally configures the device to the system (machine).

With OpenVPN we present TeleRouter in a new network interface. This interface is connected via a line (virtual circuit) with the OpenVPN interface of the partner device. The line is implemented by software. Here are exchanged all protocols for this interface on its own UPD / TCP channel. One can say it is made a telephone connection between the devices via UDP / TCP. Of course, the connection is encrypted. The keys are stored in the message router.

Configuration OVPN operation:

The options “services on the interface” determine what services are available at present VPN connection.
Open VPN routing
This determines, in what form should be routed to the WAN / LAN port via VPN.

Who is now allowed to build an OpenVPN connection? How can access to be controlled?
CAUTION! In principle, each of the certificate and the IP address of the TeleProf has
and establish a VPN connection to access the device. It is to compare when you connect
the device to the telephone line and assign a password for the dial-up modem.
You can use the extension “Advanced Router” for your own certificates. This provides more security.

In the user management you manage the users, with what right the WEB interface is allowed to be operated.
Moreover, the access data for user to be maintained, which is a dial-up connection (modem).

Here is the mask for entering the web interface user. Per users can be assigned various permissions. Generally, only a user with “SU” is allowed to make changes. U1 - U5 may only use the interface. In TeleRouter expansion modules have “U1” - “U5” more precisely specified servicing rights.

Here is the mask for entering the dial-up user interface. The user receives only the access when active is on “yes”. Further is only available the addition of “dial in & out” or “dial out”.

When a user dials in, all entries are reviewed to “dial in & out”. Other users are denied the access. The assignment take place in the phone book.

5 Optional functions

HMI module
With the HMI message module, SMS and email messages (fault messages and maintenance messages) can be sent automatically to virtually any number of recipients, depending on the event, in the PLC, without any programming effort. The system automatically assigns the messages to the respective recipients and sends the message via the correct provider.
Please note:
By sending SMS messages and email messages arise Additional costs (telephone charges, charges for Internet access, etc.). Please check with your provider for the amount of the respective fees. For the HMI module to work properly, some basic settings must be made. The following items must be set up:

  • Pagerprovider
  • Pager receivers
  • Emailserver
  • Email recipient
  • PLC connections
  • PLC Varials
  • Standardization (optional)
  • Notifications
  • Initial setting Activate the HMI option
  • Activate SMS dispatch or activate email delivery

The HMI module is also secured by access protection via WEB browser. The necessary rights are indicated for the corresponding points.

Setting up the email server or email account

Set up email server

In order for the TeleRouter to send an email, we need an email account or a server that receives and forwards the messages.
Under Name, enter a meaningful expression for you.
The “Address” field contains the host address of the e-mail server. You can either use a local server (on the local network) or a public on the Internet. The input can be a name (for example, mail.gmx.de) or a fixed IP address.
However, ensure that the corresponding entries are set for the DNS server, gateway or routes, in order to ensure a smooth e-mail transmission.
If an email is sent for shipping, TeleRouter first attempts to reach the appropriate server via the current options (set DNS and gateway). If this is not the case, an Internet connection is established under the setting Configuration → PPPoE / DSL or Configuration view → Internet → Provider and then tries to find the server. This connection is also used when the Internet connection is set to manual. If the connection to the Internet was established, This is separated after 2 minutes of idle (no email is present) or after 10 minutes at the latest.
For the Internet via modem, you can use so-called Internet by Call providers.
ATTENTION: Additional costs arise. Please inform yourself.
Example: Arcor InternetbyCall: Phone number: 01920793, User: arcor Password: internet (analog and ISDN)

In the “Email message buffer” menu item, you can track the status of the email and find any errors.
'Email' is the mail address that the recipient sees as the sender. This address should be as far as possible, as otherwise anti-spam filters might eliminate these messages. User and password refer to the email account.

Setting up email recipients

Create e-mail recipients

In the next step, you define the recipients of the e-mail messages.

Field Description
Name selectable display name
Email address of the recipient
Server select the desired email server for sending to this recipient
G0 - G9 Message Groups.
Each recipient can not belong to one or more message groups. Below, you can assign different message groups for each message, similar to this one. Thus, a message can be distributed easily to the relevant recipients.

Create message

Connections are required to access the PLC. Connections are currently supported for the SIMATIC S7 over TCP / IP.
Then configure the desired variables.
You can now specify scaling for output.
Then, you create your desired messages.

Configuring PLC connections

Configuring PLC connection

Field Description
Name own name of the PLC
Connection connection type to the PLC (here TCP / IP)
active Communication with PLC
Cycle defines the time period according to which the PLC is to exchange data
Adr. SMS status is intended for feedback of the status of the HMI module. If you want to monitor the communication status and the SMS dispatch in the PLC, enter the address of a “word on” there. E.g. Data block or flag. TeleRouter then writes the maximum number of send attempts for pending messages for each communication cycle in the low-order byte. If the number exceeds 254, 254 is always used here. The background for this procedure is explained later. If the number of send attempts is> 0, the sending of a message has failed. This allows the PLC to monitor the SMS dispatch.
Now, you should also monitor whether TeleRouter is communicating with the PLC. This can be done easily. Describe the counter byte in your PLC regularly with 0xFF. After the specified cycle time, a value other than 0xff must be set there. However, you should measure this time generously as the cycle can shift if communication problems occur with other controllers.
The high-order byte is reserved for later extensions. This is currently overwritten with “0”.
Example: If you are using MW 200, the MB201 has the counter reading and in MB200 the value is 0

Configuring variables

Configuring variables

Now create the desired variables to be displayed or processed.

Column Usage
Name Name for free use
Connection you assign the variable of a PLC connection to
Address the actual address in the PLC according to the following rules:
Data area Data type
Input Output Flag Data block
E 1.0, I 1.0 A 1.0, Q 1.0 M10.1 DB1.DBX 1.0 Bit (Boolean)
EB 1, IB 1 AB 4, QB 4 MB 20 DB2.DBB 20 BYTE
EW 4, IW 4 AW 6, QW 6 MW 100 DB4.DBW 0 WORD
ED 4, ID 4 AD 6, QD 6 MD 100 DB4.DBD 10 DWORD
Timer Counter
T1 —— Timer
—– Z1, C1 Counter
Data type Select the data type for the correct conversion:
Boolean (bit)
unsigned int (signed-to-unsigned)
signed int (signed-byte)
DWORD (double-word without sign)
signed DWORD )
real (flow point number)

For correct display and processing of the variables, a conversion may have to be carried out. This conversion can be done with standardization. You can define the necessary conversions here and assign them later to the messages. Since standardization is usually more common, it is useful to manage it centrally.


Column Description
Name freely forbidden name
Normalisation Normally, two normalization modes are supported, either “linear” or “text”.
linear means that the value must be converted by the PLC. In this case, the fields “PLC value1”, “HMI value1”, “PLC value2”, “HMI value2” are to be filled.
Texts means you want the values ​​from the PLC status texts assign. This may be e.g. The state of a multi-stage drive
Unit / State For standardization “linear”, the text for the unit designation is shown here (For example, ° C,%, piece …)
For standardization “Texts”, the states are listed here according to the following syntax: <Comparison> <value >: <Text>
For each state, enter a new line.
<comparison> is optional. If <comparison> is not specified, this means checking equality.
Example for drive:
0: OFF
1: Level1
2: Level2

For comparisons, you can also define the following states:
A temperature is to be monitored. It is to output only a text, whether the value is in the limit or whether a border violation is present. The value is in the limit if it is between 20 and 30. This is as follows:
> = 20: normal
⇐ 30: normal
<20: too low
> 30: too high
> 60: much too high
Enter the number here as the number Values ​​that result from the conversion of the fields “PLC value1”, “HMI value 1”, “PLC value 2”, “HMI value 2”
Conversion For the conversion of the numerical value of the PLC for the representation as a physical variable in the HMI module, an assignment of the PLC value and the HMI value is necessary.
The displayed value is calculated as: w = m * x + t;
w = the displayed value
m = (HMI value2 - HMIWert1) / (PLC value2 - PLCWert1)
t = (HMI value1 - m * PLC value1)
x = the current PLC value
for example, the PLC values ​​0 - 1000 should correspond to the display 0 to 100 (sh line 3 in the picture)
PLC value 1 PLC value that corresponds to the HMI value1. (0)
HMI value 1 HMI value that corresponds to the PLC value1 (0)
PLC value 2 PLC value corresponding to the HMI value2 (1000)
HMI value 2 HMI value corresponding to PLC value2 (100)

Configure messages


The actual messages are configured separately. The relationship between the variable, the standardization and the reporting group is made. What the actual message is. The sequence of the messages is made after entering the line number.

Column Use
Row For the free use and information of the user / plant operator
Report process the line and forward to message group (s)
Variable Here you can assign one of the configured variables to the message. If no variable is assigned, only the text is displayed
Delay The time in seconds for which an infringement must be applied at least until it is reported. Thus, a measured value can be debounced. If the condition / comparison operation is used to determine a limit value violation or to determine the reporting conditions.
Possible comparisons: == , > = , , <> and * * means no limit monitoring, thus only representation
G0 - G9 The assignment to the individual message groups, the respective message is assigned to a group of recipients

 Configure the HMI module

To activate the message processing at all, basic settings must be made. Before you activate these settings, the mediations should be projected.
The meaning of each line:

Line Use
Attachment name This text is sent to the recipient in the SMS header so that the sender can identify the sender
Sending the send time If “yes”, the send time is entered in the SMS header, Important: Set the time correctly
Enter message time At “yes”, the time at which the message occurred was entered for each message. This makes the SMS / Email text longer and more extensive. However, the date of occurrence can be compiled for each message
Activate SMS server yes / no
Max. Number of transmission attempts SMS This allows the number of maximum transmission attempts per SMS recipient to be set. Thus, it is possible to minimize excessive costs for unsuccessful text messages in case of shipping problems
SMS sender identification for UCP For the UCP protocol, the sender's telephone number must be given to the SMS server
Enable Email Service yes / no
Max. Number of sending attempts This allows the number of maximum send attempts per e-mail recipient to be specified

SMS message buffer / Email message buffer

Message buffer

On the SMS Message Buffer page, the messages that are currently pending and not yet sent are displayed. The “Tx Trials” column shows the number of attempts already made to send the SMS. This is greater than 0, e.g. Telephone line not available, busy or service settings (telephone number) are not correct. The largest number of attempts is reported to the PLC (see above).

Clicking on the symbol deletes all messages in the list. The messages are not sent!
For test purposes you remove the telephone cable, you can test the function of the system first, without generating costs for sending SMS.

View messages

View messages

In the menu item View messages you can view the current status of the messages. All message states of the configured messages are displayed there. So also these, which can not generate SMS. As a result, a state can be obtained via the system without PLC programming software. The message window is updated every 3 seconds. Red fields indicate that there is a violation of the limit value.
