Capstone Turbine Corporation Model C65 User’s Manual (V5.XX) Communications Capstone There are two ways for the user to communicate with the MicroTurbine, either (1) via manual operation of the Display Panel, or (2) via digital communications through the User Interface Port (UIP) or Maintenance Interface Port (MIP). Details of Display Panel operation are described in a later section. A PC may be connected to the User Interface Port directly (with an RS-232 null modem cable or using a serial – to – Ethernet converter) or via a phone line and optional modem. Communication is then possible by use of the optional Capstone Remote Monitoring Software (CRMS) on the PC, or other program that uses Capstone’s open communication protocol. The Capstone Service Network (CSN) is an optional remote communication system using an internet connection through a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN), which also can be used in place of CRMS as a real time selectable alternate. The set-up, control, and basic performance of the MicroTurbine can be monitored and adjusted through the User Interface Port. Primary user communications include: • Start and stop functions • Adjustment of power output • Storage and display of operation history • The configuration of operational parameters • Battery management functions Routine Operation Data The Display Panel (or a computer connected directly or via modem) can be used to monitor many operational parameters during system operation. Only some of the routine operation and performance data items available for monitoring are listed below: • Power Output (in kilowatts, or kW) • Turbine Speed (in revolutions per minute, or RPM) • Turbine Exit Temperature (in °C or °F) • Phase Voltages (in Volts) and Currents (in Amperes) Control Device Authority and Priority A PC connected to the User or Maintenance Interface Ports can function as a control device for the MT. The Capstone Service Network (CSN) is also a control/monitor medium, using a PC interfacing the web or at the MT User Interface Port. A PC can view system data at any time, but only one device can control the MT operation (that is, providing start/stop command or changes to power demand). The Display Panel has default control authority to issue operational commands to the MT. The user can start and stop the MT without logging on to the system (that is, no password is required). All other system adjustments require the user to log on to the system with the user password. The User Interface Port will take control when a password is entered either from the Capstone Remote Monitoring Software or other software using the Capstone open communication protocol.
