5 2 Introduction This document refers to a few very simple examples how to synchronize the time between a PC, acting as SNTP Server and a PLC, acting as a SNTP Client. Ethernet AC500 PC 2.1 Hardware and Software requirements NOTICE The following configuration is used in this document. The newer version of hardware and software should work, however it should be tested by the user himself. All instructions in this guide are based on default settings in the PLC PS501 Control Builder Plus version or later The CPU required a SNTP configuration, that means not possible with eco PLCs The CPU should have the actual firmware version or later abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 4 Application Example

6 2.2 Safety instructions Follow all safety instructions delivered with the used components: Read all safety and installation instructions of the used PLC. See the online help in CoDeSys (Help Contents Target System AC500 / S500 Introduction Overview Regulations). abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 5 Application Example

7 3 PC configuration WARNING Changes in the Registry can lead to unexpected problems requiring you to reinstall your system. We cannot guarantee that problems arising from changes in the registry can be solved. Changes in the Registry are entirely at the user's own risk. 3.1 Instructions for Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit) Follow the instructions to configure your local PC as NTP server. In this way you can synchronize other devices (PLCs) with the local PC. Step 1: Stop the "Windows Time" service under START > Control Panel > (optional: System) > Administrative Tools > Services by double click on the entry and push the Stop button. Step 2: Step 3: Open the registry editor with "Start -> Run... -> regedit" Search for the entry: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\W32Time\TimeProviders\NtpServer" and set the "Enabled" value to 1. abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 6 Application Example

9 Step 4: Search for the entry: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\W32Time\Config" and set the "AnnounceFlags" value to 5(decimal) Step 5: Check the IP address from the SNTP server. Search for the entry: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\W32Time\Parameters" and set the "NtpServer" value to ,0x9. This is the IP address from the SNTP Server. This is just an example. In your case, the IP address is different. Please set here the IP address from your PC, where the SNTP server is activated. This IP must be set in the Control Builder Plus SNTP Client configuration. Step 6: Start the "Windows Time" again and set the start type to "Automatic" if not already done. abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 8 Application Example

10 NOTICE Please check if the firewall is enabled, it must be configured to permit external access to Port 123. This is necessary because the time server service expects external request messages abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 9 Application Example

11 4 PLC Configuration 4.1 Control Builder Plus The PLC program was written with the actual ABB Control Builder Plus version 2.3.0, SP1 This application example should also run with newer versions. 4.2 AC500 CPU Using a AC500 CPU with the actual version (images can be differ) abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 10 Application Example

12 abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 11 Application Example

13 4.3 Firmware Using the firmware V2.3.0 or later (images can be differ) abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 12 Application Example

14 4.4 SNTP configuration Please expand the Communication modules and the Onboard Ethernet and click on IP_Settings. Switch to the extended settings tab. Enable the SNTP protocol and also the Client mode. The IP address for the server and backup server we will insert here is: This IP address is the address from the SNTP server, means the server address where you get the time for your PLC. Please see Instructions for Windows 7 (32-bit and 64-bit). For the first test you can set the time interval to 60s. This is the time interval where the PLC send a SNTP request telegram to the server. The entry Wait for Sync before Run can be set, this is not necessary. If no communication with the SNTP server is possible, the PLC will not RUN. Please enable the entry Allow timejumps and set the value to 43200s. This option is just set for this test. Should be changed after this test. Please double check and change if necessary the settings for Interval and Allow timejumps in your final application. The actual settings are not recommended. WARNING Please save your settings and create configuration data. You can do that by right click on AC500 and choose Create configuration data. Now, please open CoDeSys by double click on AC500. abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 13 Application Example

15 4.5 Communication Parameters Please choose your configuration data. Go to Online --> Communication Parameters If you are connect your PLC over Ethernet then insert the following settings: - Address (IP address from the PLC) - Port (set Port to 1201) - Motorola byteorder (Yes) abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 14 Application Example

16 5 User program This example contains just only one function block (CLOCK) to display the actual time. With this function block it is also possible to set a new time. This is only for testing. You can change the time, wait until the time interval, set in the Control Builder Plus configuration, is over and the time in the PLC will set. This example was written with the actual version of the PS501 Control Builder Plus software. abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 15 Application Example

17 5.1 Download your program to the PLC Please choose Online --> Login. The whole program and the configuration will be downloaded to the PLC. Now, please create a boot project. You can do that by click on Online --> Create boot project. The LED s on the PLC are flashing until be finished. abb ABB Automation Products GmbH 16 Application Example
