5.2.1.1 Tables
For each of the primary tables, the protocol allows individual selection
of 65536 data items, and the operations of read or write of those items
are designed to span multiple consecutive data items up to a data size
limit which is dependent on the transaction function code.

Usually the I/O is inside the Slave, with I/O accessible in a uniform
way as Tables. The BSL-330’s tables are regular RAM data
structures. The Tables becomes Modbus “Holding Registers” and
“Input Registers” at the moment when the information is transferred
over the Modbus RTU bus – different message types are used for the
different table types.

The PLC Slave has several Modbus interfaces, so it can be fed with
data from several Masters at the same time. This can be used with
several stand-alone AutroSafe systems.

The PLC’s “grand view” of the world will have all status (read-only)
registers in one area, and all Command (write-only) registers in
another. This is obtained by using the same address mechanism as
described for Master (single) (the address values shown in the drawing
are just examples demonstrating the principle).

About the BSL-330-Configuration
6.1 Introduction
The main configuration allows each installation to determine the
behaviour regarding:
• Number of units (decrease to improve response time)
• Polling of cycle period
This chapter gives some explanation, and also the relation between
the Statuses coming from AutroSafe, and the various Commands
that can be sent to AutroSafe.

6.4.1.1 Silence
The Silence operation affects Fire Alarm Devices (FADs), that is bells
and sirens. FADs are activated by AutroSafe’s cause/action logic, and
de-activated by Silence. In principle FADs are activated when the first
detector reports a fire, and after a silence command, when a new
detector reports fire (The FAD/silence behavior is very configurable,
including delays).
6.4.1.2 Reset
The Reset operation affects all devices in AutroSafe. Detectors will
return to Quiescent, and FADs/FPEs will de-activate.
Reset is normally used late in a fire situation.

6.4.1.3 Initialize
The Init operation involves initialization of AutroSafe’s hardware,
including the detector loops. Init will remove Disablement and Inhibit
settings, and Fault statuses (if unit has been repaired). Init is a lengthy
operation, worst-case lasting some 10 minutes. During this period
large parts of the fire detection system, and the FADs/FPEs are
inoperative.

The index “[1]” of each table line is actually a tag that need not be
sequentially increasing line by line. This means that you can
temporarily remove a sub-table by commenting out the line, and there
is no need to re-number the lines below.
(When Config is loaded, every new, unknown tag will cause allocation
of “next free” memory address. Skipping tag values does not
“reserve” memory unnecessarily).

(At this point you must have a functioning communication with the
Third party Modbus compatible equipment / PLC equipment. The
trace below shows what happens when the equipment is plugged in).
All messages in the trace that starts with “BSL-330: …” have been
returned from BSL-330, and shown internal status from it.
The example shown a Fire Alarm from the point with Unit ID 1. If
necessary, go back to “Edit Config” and repeat the send/test
procedure.
NOTE:
Register addresses may have changed when Config have been
edited. BSL-330 handles this automatically by first fetching all current
AutroSafe status (“Update Status” in the trace).
In a BSL-330-2 Master, the whole register block is sent to the PLC
(“FULL UPDATE” in the trace).
In a BSL-330-1 Slave, all data are fetched continuously by the PLC,
and no “FULL UPDATE” trace will be shown.

that hardware problems occur on the outside of BSL-330. BSL-330
then can use AutroSafe’s panel for fault reports.

When several sub-tables are set up, you have to calculate the start
address for each of them in turn. (These addresses will be needed for
the PLC programming). You can fill the table completely, or you can
select to have “holes” between tables. PLC programming is difficult to
change later, so you should set up the detector point table with some
spare registers at the end for future expansion of the fire alarm
system.

SlaveAddress was configurable via the KDCFG.EXE program.
The new Slave unit accepts access only for the registers actually in

problem for an upgrade, just increase LastUnitNo so that it’s at least
128 registers larger than the highest UnitNo (The PLC Master may

As the BN-320/x units are loop units, they are not allowed to generate
many events in a short time (signaling capacity is approximately 4
operations per second).

“Input only” FPEs that are to be used as pure “Technical Alarms” must
also be ADD’ed to a loop, but shall have no “Activation Group”.
You will get a warning when generating the Config, which you can
ignore (this capability is by design).
Note that the BN320/x units have “input filtering”. A change of the
input’s state is reported after a configurable time. If the input returns
to its previous state within this time, nothing is reported. This time is
called “Normal Monitoring Timer” in BN-320/4 (it’s the first of 3 timer
settings for all of them). In addition to the configurable time, the unit’s
software adds 2 seconds “minimum filter” time.

14.2.1 Communication
The Modbus and AutroCom communications are performed
independently. This means that the Modbus communication to the
BSL-330 Converter does not lead to a corresponding message to the
AutroSafe. The BSL-330 Converter continuously monitors the Modbus
port and responds using the data available on the BSL-330 Converter.
The BSL-330 Converter monitors the AutroCom line independently of
any Modbus activity, and if there is a command to be sent, it does so,
using flags.
BSL-330 in turn sets the flag READY in the System Status Register to
indicate that the command is in progress. READY is defined as active
when cleared (active low).

AcceptFault=T;
At receipt of a fault from AutroSafe, the BSL-330 responds with an
Acknowledge to this fault. AutroSafe in turn replies either with a
"FAULT OK" (the fault was intermittent), or with "FAULT ACCEPTED".
In the latter case, the BSL-330 asserts the fault flag for the related
device in the register. This will reflect the fault condition of AutroSafe.
The fault will then appear as accepted on the AutroSafe panel, the
flashing indicator will go steady, and the buzzer will be turned off.
Possible intermittent faults will be cleared by this method (assuming
they go to OK status short after, and do not need Reset to be cleared).
AcceptFault=F;
At receipt of a fault from AutroSafe, the BSL-330 asserts the flag of
the corresponding register. The fault is then implicitly accepted if the
operator (via Modbus) commands a Reset. Or, the fault may be
accepted by an operation at the AutroSafe panel. The fault may be
cleared at this operation, if so, BSL-330 clears the fault flag.

15.2.1 UnitIDs
AutroSafe configuration heavily controls the functionality of the
AutroSafe system. The BSL-330 reports point status only.
In AutroSafe, the main key to address any single device is the UnitID.
Even if it is named by a tag name, type no, LSI (Loop Sequence Ident)
or similar, only the UnitID is reported to the BSL-330. This UnitID is the
key to the location of the detector in the ProfiBus/Safe registers.
When setting up the configuration in the PLC according to the
AutroSafe information, it is essential to use the correct UnitID.
The 0x0001 HT_1_001 is the first Fire Detector in the system. All fire
detectors are sorted in the range 0x000 to 0x7FFF.
0x0001 is the UnitID, and “HT_1_001” is a free, user defined text for
the unit, called the Tag Name.
Note that when deleting a point in Config, the UnitID is still allocated,
but not used. This reduces the available amount of points for the BSL-
330 to report, as there is a maximum numberof 472.
Also, care must be taken when reconfiguring a system, as a deletion
and replacement of detectors will make new UnitIDs to these.
