1.2. DESCRIPTION OF THE SYSTEM.

1.2.1. Introduction.

The SALICRU devices are usually installed in locations far away

from the area of production, which means that information pro-

vided by the device about its status can often be overlooked.

The NIMBUS card solves this problem by offering a remote

maintenance service that provides real-time information about

the current status of the device.

Remote communication with the device enables maintenance

and repair work to be carried out without the need to travel to

the installation site to find out about its status.

The functionalities of the NIMBUS card are specially designed

to work with SALICRU devices, making it currently compatible

with the following series:

•DC POWER-S

•DC POWER-L

•SLS CUBE3 / CUBE3+

•SLC CUBE4

•EMI3

•SLC ADAPT/X

•SLC ADAPT2

•SLC X-PERT

•SLC X-TRA

•SLC TWIN RT2

•SLC TWIN PRO2

•SLC TWIN/3 PRO2

1.2.2. NIMBUS MAXI vs NIMBUS MINI compatibility.

Depending on the type of device, either a NIMBUS-MAXI

card or a NIMBUS-MINI card is required. Both have the same

functionalities and the same operating mode. To determine

how each card corresponds to the different compatible series,

please refer to the following table:

1.2.3. Features of the system.

The NIMBUS card features various basic integrated services to

enable basic connection to the device.

Basic service Description

Onboard panel Web panel that enables remote monitoring of the

device. As it is dependent on the NIMBUS card, if it

is not connected it will not be possible to access the

panel.

Communication

through MODBUS

Reading data through MODBUS.

RTC The card’s internal real-time clock.

Auto-

configuration of

the device

When installing the card in any of the compatible

devices, it will automatically detect which device it is.

Alarm notification Notification alert through the onboard panel in real

time.

DNS server Possibility of assigning domain names to the device.

IP address Choice of DHCP or static web address.

Tab. 3. Basic integrated services

1.2.4. Optional systems.

Although the NIMBUS card is already capable of providing re-

mote maintenance with the basic features of the system and

access to device data, these optional systems make it more

effective.

There are two types of optional systems:

•Communication protocols: improve the adaptability and

compatibility of the card with different industrial commu-

nication protocols.

•Web panel in the cloud: it allows you to monitor all devices

from a single web page, without having to go through them

one by one to detect problems. It allows you to receive

more advanced notifications: web push, email or SMS.

The remote maintenance with the web panel also offers

faster technical support in real time as it is a web page to

which SALICRU’s professionals have access. This reduces the

average time it takes to repair a device in unexpected cases.

Optional

service

Description

Communication protocols

Modbus TCP Secondary communication protocol derived from MODBUS

(main communication protocol).

Modbus API-

REST

By enabling the external connection of the card, it is

possible to make calls to the communication services

without having to access the inside of the card.

RCCMD This service enables you to perform a controlled shutdown

of the servers, in the event that certain conditions are

detected by the device.

SNMP Secondary communication protocol. This enables

notifications to be sent to the user’s IP when an alarm is

activated.

Web panel in the cloud

Panel Web panel in the cloud with access to all contracted

devices with active NIMBUS card.

2. INSTALLATION AND STARTUP.

1. Remove the protective plastic from the battery from the

NIMBUS card.

Fig. 3. Unlocking the battery of the NIMBUS card

2. Insert the NIMBUS card into the appropriate slot of the

device. It needs to be well inserted.

The card will be powered directly by the device, meaning

that no external power is necessary. If the card has been

correctly inserted, the power LEDs will light up. See the red

box in Fig. 4.

Fig. 4. NIMBUS card inserted into its slot

3. Connect one end of an RJ45 cable to the card and the other

end to the Ethernet socket. The RJ45 port lights on the card

should light up. See the red box in Fig. 5.

Fig. 5. Connection of the RJ-45 cable

4. Once the NIMBUS card is correctly powered by the device,

it will be ready for use. The NIMBUS card will come with

the latest available version already installed by default.

Once the NIMBUS card protective cover is in place, it

should look like the image shown in Fig. 6.

Fig. 6. The NIMBUS card with protective cover in place.

2.1. INITIAL CONNECTION.

Important: The card has a preset IP address to enable initial

connection. This address is fixed and always available; how-

ever, it is necessary to configure a secondary IP address in order

to use the card correctly.

Once the NIMBUS card has been correctly installed in the de-

vice via the corresponding slot, an available IP address must

then be correctly configured in order to gain remote access to

the card’s onboard panel. There are two ways to do this.

2.1.1. Point-to-point connection (Ethernet cable).

The fixed IP is always available at the address 100.0.0.1.

To access it, connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the dedi-

cated slot on the NIMBUS card and the other end to your com-

puter.

Configure the point-to-point connection by accessing network

connections and creating a new connection with the following

parameters:

Fig. 7. Network parameters for point-to-point connection.

After you have correctly created the point-to-point connec-

tion, you should be able to access the NIMBUS card via this

IP address. If you access the card via this address in the web

browser (https://100.0.0.1), change the card’s final address in

the panel’s ‘Network’ section (3.5.1 Network).
