Introduction
ProtoNode Gateway
The ProtoNode is an external, high performance building automation multi-protocol gateway that is preconfigured
to automatically communicate between Veeder-Root’s devices (hereafter simply called “device”) connected to the
ProtoNode and automatically configures them for BACnet/IP, BACnet MS/TP, SNMP, Modbus RTU or Modbus
TCP/IP.
It is not necessary to download any configuration files to support the required applications. The ProtoNode is pre-
loaded with tested profiles/configurations for the supported devices.
The ProtoNode FPC-N54 is compatible with:
•TLS-3XX Console RS-232/RS-485 Dual Interface Module
•TLS-450PLUS Console RS-232/RS-485 Dual Interface Module
Contractor Certification Requirements
Veeder-Root requires the following minimum training certifications for contractors who will install and program the
equipment discussed in this manual:
Service Technician Certification (Previously known as Level 2/3): Contractors holding valid Technician
Certifications are approved to perform installation checkout, startup, programming and operations training, system
tests, troubleshooting and servicing for all Veeder-Root Series Tank Monitoring Systems, including Line Leak
Detection. This certification includes TLS-3xx and TLS4xx certification training.
In-Station Diagnostics (ISD-PMC) Technician Certification: ISD PMC Contractors holding a valid ISD/PMC
Certification are approved to perform (ISD/PMC) installation checkout, startup, programming, and operations
training. This training also includes troubleshooting and service techniques for the Veeder-Root In-Station
Diagnostics system. A current Veeder-Root Technician Certification is a prerequisite for the ISD/PMC course.
All service personal on site must comply with all recommended safety practices identified by OSHA and your
employer.
Review and comply with all the safety warnings in the manuals listed in this document above and any other
Federal, State or Local requirements.
Warranty Registrations may only be submitted by selected Distributors.
Safety Precautions
The following safety symbols may be used throughout this manual to alert you to important safety hazards and
precautions
EXPLOSIVE
Fuels and their vapors are extremely explosive if ignited.
FLAMMABLE
Fuels and their vapors are extremely flammable.
ELECTRICITY
High voltage exists in, and is supplied to, the device. A
potential shock hazard exists.
TURN POWER OFF
Live power to a device creates a potential shock hazard.
Turn Off power to the device and associated accessories
when servicing the unit.
OFF

Precautions Against Static Electricity
If necessary to install electronic components in the ATG to implement this feature, read the following static
electricity precautions:
1. Before handling any components, discharge your body's static electric charge by touching a grounded surface.
2. Do not remove parts from their anti-static bags until you are ready to install them.
3. Do not lay parts on the anti-static bags! Only the insides are anti-static.
4. When handling parts, hold them by their edges and their metal mounting brackets.
5. Avoid touching comm board components or edge connectors that plug into slots when handling.
6. Never slide parts over any surface.
7. Avoid plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam in your work area.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
READ ALL RELATED MANUALS
Knowledge of all related procedures before you begin
work is important. Read and understand all manuals thor-
oughly. If you do not understand a procedure, ask some-
one who does.
WARNING
This console contains high voltages which can be lethal. It is also connected to low
power devices that must be kept intrinsically safe.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS AND SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, ENVIRONMENT,
RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
1. Turn off and tag power at the circuit breaker. Do not connect the console AC
power supply wires at the breaker until all devices are connected.
2. Attach conduit from the power panel to the console's Power Area knockouts
only.
3. Comply with all applicable codes including: the National Electrical Code;
federal, state, and local codes; and other applicable safety codes.
Connecting power wires to a live circuit can cause electrical shock that may result in
serious injury or death.
Routing conduit for power wires into the intrinsically safe compartment can result in
fire or explosion resulting in serious injury or death.

Quick Start
1. Record the information about the unit. (“Record Identification Data” on page 5 )
2. Check that the ProtoNode and customer device COM settings match. (“Configuring Device Configurations” on
page 5)
3. Connect the ProtoNode 3 pin RS-232 R1 port to the RS-232 network connected to each of the devices. (“RS-
232 Network” on page 6)
4. If using a serial field protocol: Connect the ProtoNode 3 pin RS-485 R2 port to the field protocol cabling.
(“RS-485 Network” on page 7)
5. Connect power to ProtoNode 3 pin power port. (“Power-Up ProtoNode” on page 8)
6. Connect a PC to the ProtoNode via Ethernet cable. (“Connect the PC to the ProtoNode” on page 9
7. Setup Web Server Security and login via web browser. (“Setup Web Server Security” on page 10)
8. Use a web browser to access the ProtoNode Web Configurator page to select the profile of the device
attached to the ProtoNode and enter any necessary device information. Once the device is selected, the
ProtoNode automatically builds and loads the appropriate configuration. (“Setting ProtoNode Active Profiles”
on page 16)
9. Ethernet Network: If using an Ethernet field protocol, use a web browser to access the ProtoNode Web
Configurator page to change the IP Address. (“Ethernet Network: Setting IP Address for the Field Network” on
page 17)

Setup For ProtoNode
Record Identification Data
Each ProtoNode has a unique part number located on the side or the back of the unit. This number should be
recorded, as it may be required for technical support. The numbers are as follows:
FPC-N54 units have the following 3 ports: RS-485 + Ethernet + RS-485/RS-232.
Point Count Capacity
The total number of registers presented the device attached to the ProtoNode cannot exceed:
Configuring Device Configurations
•The connected serial device MUST have the same baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity settings as the
ProtoNode
•To set the ProtoNode’s COM settings, see “Select Field Protocol and Set Configuration Parameters” on
page 15.
•Table 3 specifies the device serial port settings required to communicate with the ProtoNode.
