3. POWER FOCUS Open Protocol
3.1 Communication
The POWER FOCUS open protocol can be run using Ethernet or serial communication. The
POWER FOCUS open protocol is a FULL DUPLEX protocol, this means that data can be
exchanged between the POWER FOCUS and its partner in both direction simultaneously. In
FULL DUPLEX operation, therefore, data can be sent and received at the same time. Every
communication partner must be able to operate a send and receive facility simultaneously.
3.1.1 Ethernet protocol
The station computer connects itself to the torque controller, and the torque controller accepts
the connection. The torque controller is the server and the station computer the client.
The torque controller can accepts up to 5 connections at a time.
The protocol used is TCP/IP. The port used for the communication is 4545.
3.1.2 Serial protocol
3.1.2.1 Serial ASCII protocol on serial 2 or serial 1
The serial communication is available both on serial 1 and 2 of the POWER FOCUS,
When running serial communication, all the messages exchanged between the POWER
FOCUS and the station computer are the same as for Ethernet communication BUT must be
encapsulated between STX (ASCII 0x02) and ETX (ASCII 0x03).
Furthermore all the messages sent from the station computer to the POWER FOCUS must
be stamped with a tag before the STX character. The tag is constituted with 4 ASCII
characters following each other : BEL (ASCII 0x07) HT (ASCII 0x09) BEL (ASCII 0x07) HT
(ASCII 0x09).
In order to detect RS232 cable disconnection the POWER FOCUS has a communication
timeout equal to 15s i.e. if no message has been exchanged between the integrator and the
POWER FOCUS since the last 15s, the POWER FOCUS considers the connection as lost and
close it.
In order to keep the communication alive the integrator must send a keep alive to the POWER
FOCUS with a time interval lower than 15s.
Notice:
An inactivity timeout is suggested to integrator i.e. if no message has been exchanged during
the last 5s or 10s, send a keep alive.
3.1.2.2 Serial ASCII protocol with 3964 R handshake on serial 1
The protocol is the same as the ASCII serial open protocol (see upper “Serial ASCII protocol on
serial 2 or serial 1) but all messages exchanged between the POWER FOCUS and the
integrator is transferred within the telegram frame in accordance with Procedure 3964R.
The Procedure 3964R is a transfer protocol between two systems A and B. Every time one of
the systems wants to send something the following procedure is initiated:
- request from A to B for data interchange

- data interchange
Page 7(103)
th
- end of data interchange.
The protocol 3964R allows reliable data transfer by virtue of the fact that the receiver must first
signal to the transmitter that it is ready to receive (connection setup) and then after data
interchange must acknowledge correct reception. Data integrity is insured by an additional
block check character BCC.
The block check control is the EXORing of all the transmitted data bytes. The generation
begins with the first byte of the telegram and ends after characters DLE (ASCII 0x10 Data Link
Escape) and ETX (ASCII 0x03 End of Text).

Fig 2: POWER FOCUS receives Command start
The POWER FOCUS sends the control character STX (ASCII 0x02 Start of Text) to setup the
connection and waits for an acknowledgment for 2s (acknowledgment timeout = 2s). If the
integrator responds with the acknowledge character DLE the POWER FOCUS reverts to
transmit mode. If the integrator responds with control character NAK (ASCII 0x15 Negative
acknowledgment) or any other control character (apart from DLE) or if the acknowledgment
delay time elapses, it means that the connection setup procedure has failed. The connection
setup procedure is aborted after a total of 6 unsuccessful attempts.
If the connection setup is successful, the POWER FOCUS sends the Open Protocol serial
command followed by the characters DLE, ETX and BCC as end identifier. The integrator
monitors the incoming time between two characters. The interval between two characters may
not exceed the character delay timeout =100 ms.
The POWER FOCUS then waits for an acknowledgement character from the integrator. If the
integrator sends the control character DLE within the acknowledgment delay time, the open
protocol telegram has been accepted error free.
If the integrator responds with control character NAK or any other character (apart from DLE),
or if the acknowledgment delay time elapses with no answer the transmission is aborted and
the POWER FOCUS starts a new connection setup with character STX. The procedure is
aborted and the POWER FOCUS sends a NAK to the integrator after a total of 6 unsuccessful
attempts.
If the integrator sends a NAK during transmission, the POWER FOCUS aborts the transmission
and repeats it in the manner described above. In the case of any other character the integrator
waits for the character delay time to elapse and then sends a NAK.
If the integrator receives a STX from the POWER FOCUS in idle state, it answers with DLE. If it
receives any other character any STX in Idle state it waits for the character delay time to elapse
and then sends a NAK.
Page 9(103)
th
After each character, the next character is awaited during the character delay time =100ms. If
the character delay time elapses without new reception a NAK is sent to the POWER FOCUS.
If the integrator detects the character string DLE ETX BCC, it terminates reception. It then
compares the BCC with the internally generated one. If the BCC is correct and no error
reception has occurred it sends a DLE to the POWER FOCUS. If the BCC is not correct a NAK
is sent to the POWER FOCUS. A retry is then awaited. If it is not possible to receive the
telegram with error free BCC after 6 attempts, the integrator aborts the reception.
What was described above can be applied to the case where the integrator is the sender and
the POWER FOCUS the receiver.
3.1.2.3 Serial cable loss detection ON with keep alive
In order to be able to detect serial cable loss, the tightening controller has a communication
timer. This timer (15 s) is reset every time it sends or receives a message on the serial line.
If no messages have been exchanged since 15 seconds, the connection is assumed to be lost
and the tightening controller close the connection. This strategy to detect cable loss implies that
the client application sends a keep alive before the timer in the tightening controller expires.
3.1.2.4 Serial cable loss detection OFF, keep alive not needed
In option, it is possible to get rid of the need of sending keep alive to the tightening controller. In
this case the controller will not be able to detect the loss of serial connection or serial cable.
But this possibility may be useful to reduce the load on certain serial devices (PLC, printers …)
which have difficulties to cope with full duplex traffic.
To get rid of the need of sending keep alive using serial connection, uncheck C452 Serial cable
loss detection.
Special Note:
In some cases, after communication lost, the tightening controller may answer to a
“Communication start” with a “Command Error (MID = 0004) / client already connected”.
This case, must be handled by the client application and may not be considered as a failure.

3.2 Message structure
All information sent over the communication links is ASCII format.

A message consists of three parts, header, data field and message end. The sections below
describe each part in greater details.
Header Data Field Message End

Length MID Rev Spare …. NUL
(ASCII 0x0)
20 bytes
3.3 Header
The header contains 20 bytes.
Table 1
Part Bytes Comment
Length 4 The header always contains the length of the telegram. The length is
four ASCII digits long (‘0’…’9’) specifying a range of 0000 to 9999.
The length is the length of the header plus the data field exclusive the
NULL termination.
MID 4 The MID is four byte long and is specified by four ASCII digits
(‘0’…’9’). The MID describes how to interpret the sent telegram.
Revision 3 The revision of the MID is specified by three ASCII digits (‘0’…’9’).
The MID revision is unique per MID and is used in case where
several versions are available for the same MID. Using the
revision number the station computer can subscribe or ask for
different versions of the same MID. By default the MID revision
number is three spaces (revision 1 of the MID). So, if the station
computer is interested in the initial revision (revision 1) of the
MID, it can send three spaces as MID revision or 001.
No Ack Flag 1 ONLY FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS MIDs.
The No Ack Flag is used when setting a subscription. If the No
Ack flag is not set in a subscription it means that the subscriber
will acknowledge each “push” telegram sent by the torque
controller (reliable mode).
If set, the torque controller will only push out the information
required without waiting for a receive acknowledgement from
the subscriber (unreliable mode).
Spare 8 Reserved space in the header for future use.
Special Note:
The Length and MID are padded on the left with zeroes (ASCII 0x30).
3.4 Data Field
The specific data format depends on the actual command.
Data Field ASCII data representing the data.

The data contains a list of parameters.
Page 11(103)
th
Each parameter is represented with the following structure (if nothing else is mentioned):
Id Parameter Value
Id Parameter id (“00”..”99”), length two bytes.

The parameter id is padded on the left with the ASCII characters ‘0’.
Parameter Value Parameter value is defined by parameter selection (fixed number of

bytes).
If the Parameter value is only specified by ASCII digits the parameter value is padded on the

5. Communication
The protocol can be split in two parts a “Request / Response” part, and an “Event” part which
could be describe as follow.
5.1 Request / Response telegram
The station computer sends a command to the torque controller (select Pset …). The torque
controller will always answer to this command with a positive or a negative reply (Command
accepted or Command Error).
If no answer to the request is received before the response timeout, the station computer
should re-send the request up to three times. After three times, the connection is considered as
lost and a new connection must be established.

5.2 Event Telegram
The torque controller can spontaneously send telegrams to the station computer after an event
(such as a rundown, an alarm …) for that event telegrams are used. This services are only
enabled by the torque controller after a request (subscription) from the station computer.

The station computer should acknowledge the event telegrams by sending the corresponding
acknowledge MID (see Table 6). If no acknowledge is received before the response timeout the
torque controller will re-send the telegram up to three times. After three times the torque
controller will consider the connection as lost.

The torque controller has a communication timeout equal to 15s i.e. if no message has been
exchanged between the integrator and the POWER FOCUS since the last 15s, the POWER
FOCUS considers the connection as lost and close it.
In order to keep the communication alive the integrator must send a keep alive to the POWER
