Retrofit – replacing Smartpack

Replace your old Smartpack in 5 simple steps (Requires Smartpack R out of the box
with default configuration).

The Smartpack R is design to be quick and easy to install and configure, making it simple for
you to upgrade and extend the lifetime of your old power systems.

 These settings do not follow the configuration file and must be configured manually:
User accounts, Network, e-Mail, SNMP and NTP – settings.

Smartpack R must be used with Eltek interface card, part number 200625. (Same as used with
the old Smartpack)

User's Guide Smartpack R Controller 350166.013 Issue 1.1, 2019 May 11


Mounting and Removing the Controller

The Smartpack controller incorporates handles that serve both to lock the module into
position and to pull it out of its housing.

Mounting the controller:

1. Opening the handles by using a


screwdriver.
2. Insert the controller into the shelf
after plugging the cables to the rear.
3. Lock the handles by pushing
handles into locked position.

Removing the controller:

1. Opening the handles by using a


screwdriver.
2. Remove the controller by using
both hands to pull it loose gently.
3. Unplug the cables.

3. CAN Bus
Each control unit must be configured with a CAN bus address (or ID number), to enable
multiple units to communicate reliably on the CAN bus (hardware-assignment).
The addresses are configured via DIP-switches.
- For example in a distributed DC power system with several Smartpack controllers, the
master is configured with ID #1 and the slave with ID #2 and so on.

12 User's Guide Smartpack R Controller 350166.013 Issue 1.1, 2019 May


CAN Bus Address Range — Control Units
You can address various numbers of each node type, Smartpack, Controllers,
Smartnodes, Battery Monitors, Load Monitors, etc. — to the control system’s CAN bus.
See table below:

CAN Bus Connections

CAN Bus Termination


To ensure a correct bus communication and avoid data reflection, you must always
terminate the CAN bus with a 120 resistors.

Eltek power systems are shipped from factory with the CAN bus already terminated with a 120 resistors.
The CAN bus termination is implemented with a special RJ45 plug with built-in 120 end-of-line resistor.

Figure 7: Example of CAN bus addressing and termination in a Smartpack2-based


control system with several modules connected the CAN bus.

User's Guide Smartpack R Controller 350166.013 Issue 1.1, 2019 May 13


In addition to the two dedicated wires for communication, the CAN bus multi-wire cable
must integrate wires for the CAN power supply and other signals. In standard industrial
environments, the CAN bus can use standard cabling without shielding or twisted pair
wiring. If very low interference (EMI) is required, a CAT-5 twisted-pair cable is
recommended.

4. Front Panel Operation


This section describes the Smartpack R controller display and indicators, and how to
operate the Smartpack2-based power system from the controller’s front panel.

Use the controller’s web configuration pages to apply the two alternative function:
1. Using the “Set Default Cfg with default xml-files” the system is first set to Default
Configuration and then the 3 xml files will load into the system sequentially.
2. Using the “Activate Default xml-files” the system load the 3 xml files from the
Default folder sequentially (without doing a “set default configuration).
- Require sw rev ≥ 2.8.1.

Save/Load Configuration files

The “Load/Save Config” pages in the Commands section facilitate loading and saving of
controller configuration files.
1. Load Config File: - page for loading XML or HEX configuration files from the
computer into the controller.
2. Save Config File: - page for saving HEX configurations file to the computer.

- HEX configuration files must not be used across software revisions!

3. Save Change LOG to XML: - makes a XML fil of changes in configuration for
the controller modules.

Recommended way to make a ChangeLog file is to start with doing a “Set default”
for your system. Do the changes and settings you want for your system – then Save
Change Log to file and you can have this for backup or for setup to other similar
systems.

Use of the saved Change Log file:


- Load it to a system with the “Load Config Fil” function. (Do a “Set default” first).
- Make it a default fil by renaming to “XML Default Files" (see page 25).

- Product cfg, Network settings and calibration is not included in the change file.
- For configuration values set more than one time, only the latest change is in the file.

8. Firmware Upgrade
The Smartpack R controller have two types of software: an operating system (OS)
and the application software. These can be updated separately or as a package.
We recommend to use the “package” with file name:
405035.009_UPPDATE-FULL_x.x.CRY
- that contains all the necessary elements and ensures proper installation.

Downloading software to a Smartpack R can be done in 3 ways:


1. Using ENU (Eltek Network Utility)
2. Download from USB memory stick
3. Download via SFTP using any free open source FTP client.
Upgrading the firmware does not delete or change any of the configuration and calibration
values stored in the controllers.

All configuration for the Smartpack R controller requires administrator (admin) permissions.

Software download using ENU (remote)


A quick and easy way to download software for a Smartpack R is to use the ENU
program (The Eltek Network Utility) - a Windows-based software that download SW
from your PC to the controller through Ethernet LAN using SFTP.

1. Enter the ENU program (sw rev ≥ 3.1), search and find your controller and click
“SW upgrade”.
2. Open the upgrade fil 405035.009_UPPDATE-FULL_x.x.CRY
-to ensure correct upgrade sequence. If loading the files separately, it’s crucial to install the two file in
correct order: 1. Image and 2. Application
3. Click “Submit”
4. Fill inn user authentication level 3 (administrator) to start updating the controller.

Figure 13: Software download using ENU – sequentially from 1 to 4.

User's Guide Smartpack R Controller 350166.013 Issue 1.1, 2019 May 35


Software download using USB memory (local)

An easy on-site option to load SW to the Smartpack R is to use a USB memory stick:
(For other can modules – see topic SW for CAN nodes, page 38.)
 Download the .CRY file to the USB stick:

Packed SW (recommended): 405035.009_UPPDATE-FULL_x.x.CRY


- must be renamed to SMARTPACK_R.CRY *
(SW package consisting of corresponding Image and Application SW and ensure
correct upgrade sequence.)

If loading the files separately, it’s crucial to install the two file in correct order:
1. Image (depending on corresponding Application fw) - named IMAGE.CRY
2. Application (depending on corresponding Image sw) – named SMARTPACK_R.CRY

* Please note that after renaming, the “packed file” has the same name as a clean application file.
 Plug in the USB stick in the USB slot.
 Use a web browser in the PC and access “Command/Software Upgrade” to
start the Software Update process.
 Mark by clicking the Smartpack R in the list and click the “Start Software
Update”. The installation will take about 10 min.

Main status on display when updating Smartpack R with “UPDATE_FULL”:


(- if the OS or the application SW is up-to-date, the controller will skip these parts of the
installation. If both are up-to-date, the controller will show the message “completed”
after a short time.)

36 User's Guide Smartpack R Controller 350166.013 Issue 1.1, 2019 May


Software download via SFTP (remote)
1. From remote log on to the Smartpack R through sftp://<ip.adr.>/swfw/
and use your admin (level 3) username and password.

You can use any open source FTP client – FileZilla, WinSCP etc.

 Copy the software file into the swfw folder:

Packed SW (recommended): 405035.009_UPPDATE-FULL_x.x.CRY


(SW package consisting of corresponding Image and Application SW and ensure
correct upgrade sequence. No name change required as for upload from USB.)

If loading the files separately, it’s crucial to install the two file in correct order:
1. Image (depending on corresponding Application fw)
2. Application (depending on corresponding Image sw)

 The Software update process will start automatically when the


software is copied into the swfw folder with right filename and designator.

Figure 14: File structure in the Smartpack R and where to put the software update file.
(- shown here using a freeware FileZilla client.)

User's Guide Smartpack R Controller 350166.013 Issue 1.1, 2019 May 37


Software for CAN nodes

SW for CAN nodes can be loaded into this swfw folder via SFTP or USB memory,
and upgraded trough the same process in the PC browser in the menu
“Command/Software Upgrade”.

The upgrade files must have predefined filename according to the list below:

Figure 15: List of Software update file names for different controllers.

All firmware upgrade and configuration files stored in the swfw folder or USB memory must have specific
file names named in uppercase letters.

Uploading the firmware (specially the OS) may take a long time. Do not power
down the system or controller during firmware upgrade, as it may corrupt the
program memory and require service of the unit.
