INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
*if not using the provided database
1. Connect MPM to TM171 via Modbus RS485 and connect terminal A to + and terminal B to -.
2. Log in to Building Expert and navigate to Explorer menu.
3. Create a Lua PG Object.
4. Copy and paste SSL_TECH_TM171O.lua file in to PG Object.
5. Ensure Device configuration in PG Object is set-up for Modbus Device you are using.
NOTE: the script contains additional information regarding configuration. You can edit ID, tag, description and object values. Do
not modify register, read only and dependency entries.
NOTE: All of the Modbus registers representing the I/O of the TM171 are mapped to object variables in the MPM Building Expert
interface. See the examples following.
6. In Explorer tab, add all AV objects referenced in the script.
7. Save and run the script.
NOTE: as long as this script is running, you can communicate with any Device. Also, you must click the Save to Database button
to ensure all changes are stored to Flash memory.
8. Validate script is running according to the following:

Open output of PG Object to confirm there are no error messages. The PG output prints a message with a time stamp every
time a telegram is received from one of the Devices.

Validate you are receiving correct information and ensure it is sent to the correct Object.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Reading Inputs
The delay between each reading is user configurable to reflect desired system performance and intended application. This is useful
when requiring a fast response to an input change, or if using many Devices. By default, the delay is set to 30 seconds between
readings. Analog and digital inputs on each Device are read by the MPM. This operation takes 2 seconds to perform.

Writing Configuration and Outputs


Configuration and Output values are modified on change of value. The MPM checks for a change of value every 5 seconds and applies
the change to the Device.

Reading Configuration
Every minute, the MPM reads the entire configuration from the IO Extenders. The reading reflects changes if using an internal
application script. It takes 5 seconds every minute to perform this operation.

While it is possible to control multiple Devices using this script, it is not possible to use the Modbus script and Building Expert built-in
Modbus Fevices at the same time as they interfere and prevent Devices from functioning. To communicate with multiple Devices using
the script, you must use the same communication parameters on each Device.
