5. Introduction
The T2S ETH stands for T2S Ethernet. It replaces the former T2S with the same form factor but with a front Ethernet
connector replacing the former USB one. Like his predecessor, T2S ETH is a monitoring solution for the full TSI inverter
range and is able to monitor up to 32 inverters through a friendly web base interface. T2S also supports Modbus Serial
communication (RTU) and SNMP v1 Communication.
This new monitoring device provides a graphical user interface, embeds a SNMPv2c/SNMP v3 agent and Modbus TCP
support with Catena, if one needs a touch screen display Catena can be connected to T2S ETH and is Compatible. It
also allows user to change the configuration of the system.
6. Hardware
T2S ETH provides 3 LEDs: Red for major alarm signaling, orange led for minor alarm signaling and green led for power
and network connection status.
The RJ45 is a standard ETH connector that could be connected on any IPv4 network.
T2S ETH firmware can be upgrade using the Micro SD card. Device firmwares are available in my.cet-power.com
Booting
S S Error no configuration.ini
Note: The terminal connector accepts maximum wire size of 0.5 mm2.
Important remarks:
In a system with several shelves, T2S ETH is usually located in the first one (although it’s not mandatory) but relay
signaling contacts will be terminated in the T2S ETH installed shelf. The above connection is just an example, actual
connection will be based on your shelf design and connections.
If the T2S is included in one complete system including for example Termination box or some customers packages, the
terminal will be located somewhere else. (Refer System user manual).
NB: Alarm relay are active (energized) when no alarm are present.
•• Alarms relay features
Max current: 2 A @ 30 VDC or 1A @ 60 VDC
Max Power: 60 W
Max Voltage: 60 VDC SELV
Note that for higher voltages, it is mandatory to install an additional relay with appropriate characteristics – especially
for 60/110/220 VDC.
6.2.3 Communication
A RJ45 connector is present at rear of the shelf and can be used for Candis display and Modbus (RTU) communication.
Note: The colour of wires is irrelevant and may vary, but make sure the position of wires is exactly crimped.
Important remark:
T2S ETH comes in only one “flavor” in term of serial communication RS485 and support Modbus RTU (read-only).
Currently, no protocol is available for customer use on CAN bus connection and it is dedicated for Candis accessory.
The unregulated +12 V power supply is designed for powering CE+T accessories and should not be used for any other
purpose.
6.3.2 Configuration
When more than one display is used on the same system, the CANBUS ID must be different and include values from
124 to 264 (i.e as 134; 144 ; 154, …264).
The other information that can be configured are the related phase, the AC group or DC group, and the adjustment the
backlight.
If the installed system is multi-phase or has multiple DC groups, the T2S and the inverter modules must be correctly
configured to display the correct value by phase or DC group.
For instance in three phase systems, the inverter modules must be configured to show the 3 phases’ output
information, but also the one related to the three AC group who correspond to each AC input phase. By doing so, the
display will show the values phase by phase.
Warning: The Candis Display is powered from the auxiliary power supply of the modules which are
limited in power.
V out= 233 V The line beneath the first line indicates that
I out= 3 A display parameters can be changed for first line.
V out= 233 V The line beneath the second line indicates that
I out= 3 A display parameters can be changed for second line.

6.4.1 Description
On front access, Catena has a wide 7’’ capacitive touch screen alongside 3 led following the same scheme as in T2S
ETH and two connectors: USB type A and Ethernet (RJ45). A reset button is also provided. Catena firmware can be
upgrade using the Micro SD card. Device firmware is available in my.cet-power.com
From the rear, there are two 12 VDC inputs that help Catena to be powered by two different sources, usually AC and
DC. The PE is also available on power supply connector. Two Ethernet (RJ45) ports are available, one for connection to
T2S ETH (see section 6.4.2, page 20) and one for permanent network connection.
Important remark: this is the latest version released of Catena. If you have different version of
Catena, refer to the system user manual.
6.4.2 Wiring

where following information can be
found:
System level:
•• Installed power
•• Available power
Phase level:
For each output phase, following
information is given:
•• Number of installed modules
•• Redundancy: defined or not,
satisfied or not
•• Installed and available power
following the same logic as per system level
•• A.R.C. (Available Redundant Capacity) is the remaining available power before reach the redundancy level.
Clicking the button will launch the module selection popup. Each module information can be accessed
by clicking the corresponding button. A legend is always present to recall the colour scheme:
•• White: no module in slot
•• Grey: module manually off
•• Green: module OK
•• Orange: module in recoverable error
•• Red: module with unrecoverable error
For last two, refer to module manual for troubleshooting.
7.4.5 Module
This page gives module by module
measurement.
T2S ETH is the monitoring solution
for inverters which are all one
phase modules.
Many controls are available from
this page to manage the module:
It’s not always easy to identify a module in front of a system. Clicking this icon will blink all
module’s LEDs for few seconds.
A module can be manually turned off by user interface. It will still be present on communication
bus, but is output is turned off. When you click on it, it will change is state from display one to
opposite.
T2S ETH keeps track of all modules which appears on the bus which means no installation is
needed when a new module is plugged in. But when a module is removed, it’s mandatory to
tell the system about it, by “uninstalling” it, clicking this button. If not, the system will detect a
missing module and raise an alarm.
For each of its converter, the module can be assigned an AC in phase, an AC out phase and a DC
group. User can do so by using this control number to each converter measures. Module should
be manually off to do changes for AC out phases.
If module fan is replaced, click this icon to clear the corresponding alarm.
7.4.6 Events
Events page lists all events currently
ongoing in the system. These are sorted
by event occurrence time, latest event
will be on top of the list. T2S ETH records
maximum number of 2000 events as
FIFO.
“Device” column provides the source
of the alarm which can be down to
converter of a given module (example:
module 4 AC IN) to System or monitoring
level.
Events appear with a colour
corresponding to their alarm level
(grey – event, orange – minor, red –
major).
A filter as shown below is available to display only a subset of these events.
7.4.7 Log
Log file lists all events which have
occurred in the system since last log
clear.
Compared to event page, an extra
column display if event has appeared or
disappeared.
For each event, there are two log lines:
one with the timestamp of the event
appearing and the second one with the
timestamp of the event disappearing.
User can filter the log like in event page.
User is able to see the difference
between event and log page: no colour
for alarm level is used in log page, a
column states it.
Log download and clear functions are available in “Files” menu.
7.4.8 Connections
As described before, T2S ETH has 2 digital inputs and 3 alarm relays.
State of each of these connections can be read through the “connections” page.
An extra button “toggle” allows the user to test each relay manually, toggling it for a few seconds with the aim of
detecting a mechanically failing device over the time.
7.4.9 Files
Three tabs are displayed in Files page.
Transfer tab gives user the opportunity
to download log file and configuration
file.
It’s also on that page that log file can be
cleared when it’s becoming too large.
7.4.10 Parameters

7.4.10.6 Info
•• T2S-ETH
8. Catena
8.1 Introduction
Catena is the display solution for T2S ETH. Using it, you get access on a 7’’ display directly in the system, providing the
same graphical user interface as the T2S ETH when accessed remotely.
To get access to the user interface, just follow instruction from the popup:
•• Open a web browser (Chrome or Firefox)
•• Type http://catena.local in the address bar
When the cable is unplugged, the display is accessible again.
Important remark: this feature is only available in latest version (both Hardware and Software).
8.3.3 Troubleshooting
For any reason, if connection between Catena and T2S ETH cannot be established, the following popup will be
displayed:
Follow the steps listed here. If the problem persists even after a reset (or hard reset by power supply), try to connect
directly on T2S ETH and check that it’s properly configured “With Catena” (See section 8.4, page 40).
8.4 Configuration
In Catena installed system, it is mandatory to set the option as “With CATENA” in Network page. (Parameters >
Monitoring > Network > Connection mode > Hardware setup). Refer section “Network”, page 32
“A” is a private network between Catena and T2S ETH. Catena provides a DHCP server on this port to provide an IP
address to T2S ETH. Even if not usable for user, the address range used there is 10.240.240.X and therefore, this
address range is not available on interface B.
“B” is the user “permanent network connection” to the Catena. It can be either in DHCP client or in fixed IP address.
When using a Catena, the network parameters in user interface are the ones used on interface B.
Important remark: when “With Catena” mode is selected, T2S ETH is listening for DHCP client. For any reason, if you
want to connect on T2S ETH directly by removing the cable “A”, then you have to wait for the DHCP client timeout of
about 2 minutes. Only after that, T2S ETH will use the defined IP address in network parameters and you can reach it.
8.5 Protocols
Using Catena SNMP V2C, SNMP V3 and Modbus TCP support is enhanced to monitor the system.
8.5.2 SNMP v3
Implemented MIB file is CET-MIB. Three different modes are available in SNMP v3 with subsequent parameters:
•• No Auth/No Priv
•• Auth/No Priv
•• Auth/Priv
Status (1080-1087):
These entries allow getting the status of power system, power inputs, and loading. The status is the one provided on
web interface, main page, through status “LED”.
9. SNMP
9.1 SNMP Configuration
9.1.1 Introduction
This document describes the Management Information Base (MIB) schema design for standalone T2S ETH for SNMP
v1 configuration and T2S ETH with Catena for SNMP V2C and V3 configuration. A MIB schema describes the structure
of information served by a Simple Network Management Protocol Subsystem (SNMP) agent.
6. If you’re on a network with DHCP You can just enable the DHCP inside the Network submenu of the “Monitoring”
menu.
7. Turn DHCP to enable
8. Click “Save”.
9. When DHCP is enabled IP to T2S will be assigned by the DHCP server or the Router to which T2S ETH is
connected.
10. To find the IP address of T2S ETH card IP Scanner tools can be used.
11. Refer section 9.2, page 57 for more information.
12. If you have not DHCP Disable DHCP.
14. If your Trap receiver is a server with host name then configure DNS if you want your trap to be received.
5. Standard user name for SNMP v3 No Auth. + No Encrypt. User is “snmp3TrapUser” this not configurable, But this
username has to be added in NMS to receive traps.
6. Trap version for T2S ETH is CET MIB Traps.
7. Traps will not be received when UPS MIB Traps are selected.
13. NoPriv password has to match the password used in V3 profile in NMS, Password accepts a maximum of 15
ASCII characters.
14. NoPriv authentication is the hash method used to login (take care that MD5 is the weakest of the list. SHA
recommended).
5. Trap user name is configurable has to match the name created in Trap receiver, User name accepts a maximum
of 15 ASCII characters.
6. Trap password is configurable has to match with the password created in Trap receiver, Password accepts a
maximum of 15 ASCII characters.
7. Trap authentication is the hash method used to login (take care that MD5 is the weakest of the list. SHA
recommended).
8. Trap priv encryption key is configurable has to match the name created in Trap receiver, encryption key accepts a
maximum of 15 ASCII characters.
9. Trap priv encryption: Only for SNMP V3+ auth+ encryption: method used to encrypt packet! Use AES if you have
the choice.
10. Trap version for T2S ETH is CET MIB Traps
11. Traps will not be received when UPS MIB Traps are selected.
2. Once it’s done, you can browse the MIB content under
MIB Tree > iso.org.dod.internet > private > enterprises > cetMIB > cetTSIMIB
3. Fill the address field with your unit IP address.
2. You should have defined the IP address of the laptop running MIB Browser in the T2S ETH configuration in order
to retrieve trap.
5. Press Ctrl + S to save the file with the same file name
6. Navigate to Modules Tab
7. Check CET-TSI-MIB and CET-TSI-SIM are listed under available MIB Modules
8. Select the above files and Press right arrow to move the files to Loaded MIB Module
9. By doing this CET MIB files are loaded to SNMPB MIB tree
10. Navigate to tree tab and check for CET MIB under iso-org-dod-internet-private-enterprises-cetMIB
10. FAQ
1. I’m unable to change the output phase of a module
Check that the number of phase is correctly configured in Configuration > Power > AC OUT > Nb of
phase
Module should be manually turned off (module page)
Don’t forget to turn the module back on when phase is changed!
2. I have a system properly running with T2S USB, can I replace it with T2S ETH
Of course T2S ETH and T2S are 100% compatible. Once the load is fed, monitoring cannot cause any issue to it.
Feel free to replace your old T2S by a new T2S ETH.
MBP monitoring is a T2S configuration parameter which should be re-configured in your new T2S ETH
once it’s up and running.
Candis is not compatible with T2S ETH. A new version will be available soon, get in touch with your local
sales representative for more info about availability and retrofit possibilities.
As their features are redundant, T2S ETH is not compatible with former TCP-IP module.
Operating parameter need to be cross check, and IP setting must reconfigured.
12. Service
For Service

16.4.1 Introduction
In all the following examples, assumption will be made that T2S ETH controller Modbus RTU slave address is 1 (0x01).
Master frame: 0x01 0x04 0x00 0x80 0x00 0x01 0x71 0xE3
T2S ETH frame: 0x01 0x04 0x02 0x09 0x1B 0xFF 0x6B
Received value: 0x091B = 2331 Output voltage is 233.1V (see module table, page 79)

T2S ETH frame: 0x01 0x04 0x04 0x21 0x01 0x00 0xB3 0xE1 0xCD
Alarm entry #1 is a minor (0x01) alarm generated by the system (0x21) and this alarm has the ID 179 (0x00B3)
Master frame: 0x01 0x04 0x07 0xDE 0x00 0x02 0x10 0x85
T2S ETH frame: 0x01 0x04 0x04 0xFF 0xFF 0xFF 0xFF 0xFA 0x10
Conclusion, there is no alarm entry #3 and nor are there further entries. This leads to the conclusion that only 2 alarms
are present at the time in the system.

Due to internal memory organization, the configuration might have valid entries interleaved with invalid ones. Thus, in
order to read all configurations, one should read all entries to determine which ones are valid and which ones are not.

Note 1:
Caution should be taken while changing module address because it will affect the addresses where to retrieve
information regarding this module. What is more there can be a delay between the moment where the change address
order is received and the moment where the module address has been physically changed. Moreover, a module
address can be changed to a new address that is already assigned to another module! In this case, the modules will
swap their addresses.
For all those reasons, the best and secure way to change a module address is the following one:
1. Get module serial number using “Module information table” using the current address to calculate the index.
2. Send to the new address for this module using the “Module action table” using the current address to calculate
the index.
3. Poll the serial number using “Module information table” using the new address as index until there is a match
with the serial number collected at point 1.
16.5.1 Requirement:
•• USB to RS485 interface cable (For example USB-RS485-WE cable, FTDI chip), Fig 1
7. Verify the Modbus RTU parameters are matching with the T2S-ETH in the Modbus section (Fig 7).
9. Click on the Connect icon in the Radzio tool bar in order to establish the connections. (Fig 8)
10. Click New Modbus sheet icon, to open the new Modbus sheet. (Fig 9)
11. Modify the Device Settings in the new modbus sheet. (Fig 10)
○○ Set the Device ID (Default value is 1)
○○ Set the entity of Device ID as Input Register (Default value is Coil status)
12. Access the desired addresses at the Modbus sheet in Radzio (Fig 11) as described in the Modbus document
(Fig 12).
If you only see zeros or bad values, check the Frame counter (Fig 11) to be sure that you receive “Valid
responses”.
If not, the settings may be wrong.
For example, you can read from base address 1840 (AC input L1)
AC input power value (U32 so address 4 will be MSB and address 5 LSB) = 106 [VA]
Input voltage (U16) at address 6 = 2321 [0.1 V] = 232.1 [V]
Input current (U16) at address 7 = 4 [0.1 A] = 0.4 [A]
Input frequency (U16) at address 8 = 499 [0.1 HZ] = 49.9 [Hz]
