1) Introduction

    The OPC_SCHRACK ver. 4.7 is a communication driver which allows to connect BMS system with several fire protection systems from Schrack Seconet via RS232 or ETHERNET channels. The Integral Standard Protocol (ISP) is used by the driver. The computer with BMS system uses a serial port (RS232) or ETHERNET network card. Schrack central can use one of the following modules: B3-USI4,B3-LPI,B4-USI for a RS232 or network cards like B5-NET2-FXM for an ETHERNET. The driver can be connected to BMZ Integral IP, Integral C or Integral system.

It includes the following features:

  1. Very effective method of communication which uses ISP protocol.
  2. Works as a service. It works even after logging out from the system.
  3. Devices from Schrack-Seconet can be connected via RS232 or ETHERNET.
  4. Supports all main commands and events which exist in Schrack.
  5. Ability of sending commands to the central from the computer system.
  6. Multithreading which allows to do tasks in a very efficient way, without a heavy load of the processor.
  7. Possibility of working with several Schrack units simultaneously.
  8. Very effective connection to BMS system using OPC.
  9. Easy to use configuration.
  10. Monitoring of the communication process.
  11. Automatically re-running the communication after failure.


2) Installing the I/O driver

Run OPC_SCHRACK_INSTALL.EXE.Installation software will put OPC_SCHRACK files into the C:\Program Files\TIGER_SOFT\OPC_SCHRACK_4_7 directory or another directory chosen by the user. Shortcuts to the manual and registration software exist in the group OPC_SCHRACK ver. 4.7 (access from the Start menu). The driver is installed as a service.



3) Software registration

OPC_SCHRACK should be registered after installation using TIGER-SOFT internet service. SOFTWARE REGISTRATION from OPC_SCHRACK group should be started first. This program generates file gen_lic.lic and saves it in the main driver directory. Then you have to connect to http://www.tiger-soft.com.pl/Registration/registration.html, fill the form and receive the registration code. This code should be put to the editable field in the SOFTWARE REGISTRATION. Press OK to finish registration process.



4) Configuring the OPC_SCHRACK

The file - Configuration.oes is used for the driver configuration. It exists in the same directory like the OPC_SCHRACK.exe. An example of the file is presented below.

5) Configuring an OPC client

OPC_SCHRACK is an OPC server. Every software that can be an OPC client should work fine with OPC_SCHRACK. ProgID is TS.OPC_SCHRACK.
ItemID can be set like this:

6) Starting and stopping the OPC_SCHRACK

The driver can be run from the service manager on Windows. Second way is to use command line with commands: OPC_SCHRACK -s for starting and OPC_SCHRACK -z, for stopping it. The service OPC_SCHRACK can be also configured to start automatically after operating system is started.

WARNING!!! Additional parameters, concern security of the service and DCOM component have to be set. In order to do it dcomcnfg.exe should be run. User of the service should be chosen from computer users (for example system administrator). The same user should be set for DCOM TIGER-SOFT OPC_Schrack (Identity).
