BARO INTEGRATOR GUIDE
DESSCRIPTION SENSOR
The BARO Module is a precise barometer to compensate for matric potential measurements of TEROS 31 and TEROS 32 tensiometers. The BARO Module can be used as a standalone sensor to compensate one or more tensiometers at a measuring site, or as a digital/analog converter to compensate a connected TEROS 31 or TEROS 32 value and convert the SDI-12 signal into an analog voltage output (only 8-pin version). The BARO Module and TEROS 32 combination can be used as a T8 tensiometer replacement. For a more detailed description of how this sensor makes measurements, refer to the BARO Module User Manual.

CUMUNICAZIONI SENSORI
METER digital sensors feature a serial interface with shared receive and transmit signals for communicating sensor measurements on the data wire. The sensor supports SDI-12, tensio LINK, and Modbus over RS-485 two-wire. The sensor automatically detects the interface and protocol which is being used. Each protocol has implementation advantages and challenges. Please contact METER Customer Support if the protocol choice for the desired application is not obvious.

Scaricate l'SDI-12 Specification v1.3 per sapè più nantu à u protocolu SDI-12. - RS-485 INTRODUCTION
RS-485 is a robust physical bus connection to connect multiple devices to one bus. It is capable of using very long cable distances under harsh environments. Instead of SDI-12, RS-485 uses two dedicated wires for the data signal. This allows the use of longer cables and is more insensitive to interference from outside sources, since the signal is related to the different wires, and supply currents do not influence the data signal. See Wikipedia for more details on RS-485. - TENSIOLINK RS-485 INTRODUCTION
tensioLINK is a fast, reliable, proprietary serial communications protocol that communicates over the RS-485 interface. This protocol is used to read out data and configure features of the device. METER provides a tensioLINK PC USB converter and software to communicate directly with the sensor, read out data, and update the firmware. Please contact Customer Support for more information about tensioLINK. - MODBUS RTU RS-485 INTRODUCTION
Modbus RTU is a common serial communications protocol used by Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) or data loggers to communicate with all kinds of digital devices. The communication works over the physical RS-485 connection. The combination of RS-485 for the physical connection and Modbus as serial communications protocol allows fast and reliable data transfer for a high number of sensors connected to one serial bus wire. Use the following links for more Modbus information: Wikipedia and modbus.org. - INTERFACE U SENSORE À UN COMPUTER
The serial signals and protocols supported by the sensor require some type of interface hardware to be compatible with the serial port found on most computers (or USB-to-serial adapters). There are several
SDI-12 interface adapters available in the marketplace; however, METER has not tested any of these interfaces and cannot make a recommendation as to which adapters work with METER sensors. METER data loggers and the ZSC handheld device can operate as a computer-to-sensor interface for making on-demand sensor measurements.
The BARO Module can also be configured and measured via tensioLINK using METER software tensioVIEW, available to download at meter.ly/software. To connect a BARO Module to a computer a tensioLINK USB converter and a suitable adapter cable is necessary. - METER SDI-12 IMPLEMENTATION
If a BARO Module is connected between a TEROS 31 or 32 tensiometer, both the barometric air pressure and the absolute pressure of the TEROS tensiometer can be read out via Modbus. The compensated matrix potential can be read out via Modbus as well.
METER sensors use a low-impedance variant of the SDI-12 standard sensor circuit (Figure 2). During the power-up time, sensors output some sensor diagnostic information and should not be communicated with until the power-up time has passed. After the power up time, the sensors are fully compatible with all commands listed in the SDI-12 Specification v1.3 except for the continuous measurement commands ( aR0 – aR9 and aRC0 – aRC9 ). M , R , and C command implementations are found on pages 8–9. Out of the factory, all METER sensors start with SDI-12 address 0 . - CONSIDERAZIONI SENSOR BUS
SDI-12 sensor buses require regular checking, sensor upkeep, and sensor troubleshooting. If one sensor goes down, that may take down the whole bus even if the remaining sensors are functioning normally. Power cycling the SDI-12 bus when a sensor is failing is acceptable. METER SDI-12 sensors can be power-cycled and read on the desired measurement interval or powered continuously and commands sent when a measurement is desired based on specified communication timing. Many factors influence the effectiveness of the bus configuration. Visit metergroup.com per articuli è seminarii virtuali chì cuntenenu più infurmazione.

IMPLEMENTAZIONE DI COMANDI DI MISURA
Measurement ( M ) commands are sent to a single sensor on the SDI-12 bus and require that subsequent Data ( D ) commands are sent to that sensor to retrieve the sensor output data before initiating communication with another sensor on the bus. Please refer to Table 2 and for an explanation of the command sequence and to Table 5 for an explanation of response parameters.

IMPLEMENTAZIONE DI COMANDI CONCURRENT MEASUREMENT
Concurrent Measurement ( C ) commands are typically used with sensors connected to a bus. C commands for this sensor deviate from the standard C command implementation. First, send the C command, wait the specified amount of time detailed in the C command response, and then use D commands to read its response prior to communicating with another sensor.

IMPLEMENTAZIONE DI COMANDI DI MISURA CONTINUA
Continuous Measurement ( R ) commands trigger a sensor measurement and return the data automatically after the readings are completed without needing to send a D command. aR0! returns more characters in its response than the 75-character limitation called out in the SDI-12 Specification v1.3. It is recommended to use a buffer that can store at least 116 characters.

METER MODBUS RTU SERIAL IMPLEMENTATION
Modbus over Serial Line is specified in two versions – ASCII and RTU. BARO Modules communicate using RTU mode exclusively. The following explanation is always related to RTU. Table 6 lists the Modbus RTU communication and configuration.
| Table 6 Modbus communication characters | |
| Baud Rate (bps) | 9,600 bps |
| Start Bits | 1 |
| Bits di dati | 8 (LSB prima) |
| Bit di parità | 0 (nimu) |
| Stop Bits | 1 |
| Lògica | Standard (attivu altu) |
Figure 11 shows a message in RTU format. The size of the data determines the length of the message. The format of each byte in the message has 10 bits, including Start and Stop Bit. Each byte is sent from left to right: Least Significant Bit (LSB) to Most Significant Bit (MBS). If no parity is implemented, an additional stop bit is transmitted to fill out the character frame to a full 11-bit asynchronous character.
The Modbus application layer implements a set of standard Function codes divided into three categories: Public, User-defined, and Reserved. Well-defined public function codes for BARO Modules are documented in the Modbus Organization, Inc. (modbus.org) community.
For a reliable interaction between the BARO Module and a Modbus Master, a minimum 50ms delay is required between every Modbus command sent on the RS-485 bus. An additional timeout is needed for every Modbus query; this timeout is device-specific and depends on the quantity of the polled registers. Generally, 100ms will work fine for most of the BARO Module.

| 16 | Scrivite parechji registri | Writes values into a series of holding registers in the ModBusSlave |
DATA REPRESENTATION AND REGISTER TABLES
Data values (setpoint values, parameters, sensor-specific measurement values, etc.) sent to and from the BARO Module use 16-bit and 32-bit holding (or input) registers with a 4-digit address notation. The address spaces are virtually distributed in different blocks for each data type. This is an approach to the Modbus Enron implementation. Table 8 shows the four main tables used by the BARO Module with their respective access rights. Table 9 describes the sub-blocks for each different data type representation.
Please note that some Modbus dataloggers use addressing with a +1 offset. This sometimes causes confusion and is based on a Modbus specification void. If there are problems in implementing your Modbus program on the datalogger always try testing different register offsets and data types. Using a known value, like temperature, where it’s known what value to expect is a good practice to start testing.
| Table 8 Modbus Primary Tables | |||
| Numero di Registru | Tipu di table | Accessu | Descrizzione |
| 1xxx | Bobine di output discrete | Leghjite / Scrive | on/off status or setup flags for the sensor |
| 2xxx | Cuntatti di input discreti | Leghjite | sensor status flags |
| 3xxx | Registri di input analogicu | Leghjite | numerical input variables from the sensor (actual sensor measurements) |
| 4xxx | Analog Output Holding Registers | Leghjite / Scrive | numerical output variables for the sensor (parameters, setpoint values, calibrations etc.) |
Per esample, register 3001 is the first analog input register (first data address for the input registers). The numeric value stored here would be a 16-bit unsigned integer-type variable that represents the first sensor measurement parameter (pressure value). The same measurement parameter (pressure value) could be read at register 3201, but this time as a 32-bit floating-point value with a Big-Endian format. If the Modbus Master (Datalogger or a PLC) supports only 32-bit float-values with a Little-Endian format, then one could read the same measurement parameter (same pressure value) at register 3301. The Virtual Sub-Blocks are meant to simplify the user’s effort in programming the Modbus query of the sensors.

*Some devices report Modbus register addresses with an offset of +1. This is true for Campbell Scientific Loggers and Dataker loggers. In order to read the desired register use the number in the parenthesis.
EXAMPLE USING A CR6 DATALOGGER AND MODBUS RTU
U Campbell Scientific, Inc. CR6 Measurement and Control Datalogger supports Modbus master and Modbus slave communication to integrate Modbus SCADA networks. The Modbus communications protocol facilitates the exchange of information and data between a computer/HMI software, instruments (RTUs), and Modbus-compatible sensors. The CR6 datalogger communicates exclusively in RTU mode. In a Modbus network, each slave device has a unique address. Therefore, sensor devices must be configured correctly before connecting to a Modbus Network. Addresses range from 1 to 247. Address 0 is reserved for universal broadcasts.
PROGRAMMING A CR6 DATALOGGER
The Programs running on the CR6 (and CR1000) Loggers are written in CRBasic, a language developed by Campbell Scientific. It is a high-level language designed to provide an easy yet extremely flexible and powerful method of instructing the data logger how and when to take measurements, process data, and communicate. Programs can be created using either the ShortCut Software or edited using the CRBasic Editor, both of which are available for downloading as stand-alone applications on the official Campcampana scientifica websitu (www.campbellsci.com). ShortCut Software (https://www.campbellsci.com/shortcut) CRBasic Editor (https://www.campbellsci.com/crbasiceditor)
A typical CRBasic program for a Modbus application consists of the following:
- Variables and constants declarations (public or private)
- Units declarations
- Parametri di cunfigurazione
- Data tables declarations
- Logger Initializations
- Scan (Main Loop) with all the sensors to be quired
- Function call to the Data Tables
CR6 LOGGER RS-485 CONNECTION INTERFACE
The universal (U) terminal of the CR6 offers 12 Channels that connect to nearly any sensor type. It gives the CR6 the ability to match more applications and eliminates the use of many external peripherals.
The Modbus CR6 connection shown in Figure 12 uses the RS-485 (A/B) interface mounted on terminals (C1-C2) and (C3-C4). These interfaces can operate in Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex. The serial interface of the BARO Module used for this example is connected to (C1-C2) terminals.
BARO Module to CR6 Datalogger Wiring Diagram
After assigning the BARO Module a unique Modbus Slave Address, it can be wired to the CR6 logger according to Figure 12. Make sure to connect the white and black wires according to their signals, respectively, to the C1 and C2 ports—the brown wire to 12V (V+) and the blue to G (GND). To control the power supply through your program, connect the brown wire directly to one of the SW12 terminals (switched 12V outputs).
