The engine, turbine, or other type of prime mover should be equipped with an overspeed (overtempera-
ture, or overpressure, where applicable) shutdown device(s), that operates totally independently of the
prime mover control device(s) to protect against runaway or damage to the engine, turbine, or other
type of prime mover with possible personal injury or loss of life should the mechanical-hydraulic gov-
ernor(s) or electric control(s), the actuator(s), fuel control(s), the driving mechanism(s), the linkage(s),
or the controlled device(s) fail.
Any unauthorized modifications to or use of this equipment outside its specified mechanical, electrical,
or other operating limits may cause personal injury and/or property damage, including damage to the
equipment. Any such unauthorized modifications: (i) constitute "misuse" and/or "negligence" within
the meaning of the product warranty thereby excluding warranty coverage for any resulting damage,
and (ii) invalidate product certifications or listings.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to a control system that uses an alternator or battery-charging device, make sure
the charging device is turned off before disconnecting the battery from the system.
Electronic controls contain static-sensitive parts. Observe the following precautions to prevent dam-
age to these parts.
Discharge body static before handling the control (with power to the control turned off, contact a
grounded surface and maintain contact while handling the control).
Avoid all plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam (except antistatic versions) around printed circuit boards.
Do not touch the components or conductors on a printed circuit board with your hands or with
conductive devices.

Overview

This operation manual describes the following types of the Gateway GW 4:
GW 4B/485/MOD
GW 4B/232/MOD
GW 4/PRO
GW 4/232/LDP/MDM02
GW 4B/232/LDP
Please refer to the name plate of your Gateway GW 4 to establish the correct type. The different units allow dif-
ferent protocols. They depend on the used hardware.
Intended Use The control must only be operated according to the guidelines described in this manual. The pre-
requisite for a proper and safe operation of the product is correct transportation, storage, and installation as well
as careful operation and maintenance.
NOTE
This manual has been developed for an control fitted with all available options. Inputs/outputs, func-
tions, configuration screens, and other details described, which do not exist on your control, may be
ignored.
The present manual has been prepared to enable the installation and commissioning of the control.
Due to the large variety of parameter settings, it is not possible to cover every combination. The ma-
nual is therefore only a guide. In case of incorrect entries or a total loss of functions, the default set-
tings may be taken from the enclosed list of parameters.

Chapter 2.
Electrostatic Discharge Awareness
All electronic equipment is static-sensitive, some components more than others. To protect these components
from static damage, you must take special precautions to minimize or eliminate electrostatic discharges.
Follow these precautions when working with or near any control.
1. Before doing maintenance on the electronic control, discharge the static electricity on your body to
ground by touching and holding a grounded metal object (pipes, cabinets, equipment, etc.).
2. Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing clothing made of synthetic materials.
Wear cotton or cotton-blend materials as much as possible because these do not store static electric
charges as easily as synthetics.
3. Keep plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam materials (such as plastic or Styrofoam cups, cigarette packages, cello-
phane wrappers, vinyl books or folders, plastic bottles, etc.) away from the control, modules, and work
area as much as possible.
4. Opening the control cover may void the unit warranty.

Do not remove the printed circuit board (PCB) from the control cabinet unless absolutely necessary. If
you must remove the PCB from the control cabinet, follow these precautions:
Ensure that the device is completely voltage-free (all connectors have to be disconnected).
Do not touch any part of the PCB except the edges.
Do not touch the electrical conductors, connectors, or components with conductive devices or with
bare hands.
When replacing a PCB, keep the new PCB in the plastic antistatic protective bag it comes in until you
are ready to install it. Immediately after removing the old PCB from the control cabinet, place it in the
antistatic protective bag.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper handling, read and observe the pre-
cautions in Woodward manual 82715, Guide for Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls, Printed
Circuit Boards, and Modules.

Functional Description
ATTENTION
The supply voltage (24 Vdc) for the GW 4 Gateway must not be connected directly to the engine's
starter battery.
The following occurs if the unit is started by remote starting via the GW 4 Gateway from the control
room/PLC: If the starter is energized, the supply voltage of the GW 4 Gateway can fall below below
18 Vdc. As a result, the GW 4 Gateway is reset and therefore issues a remote stop. A new starting pro-
cedure is then initiated and the same happens again. This procedure will repeats continuously.
Because there is a delay in the time taken by the GCP/AMG to detect an interface error (i.e. the error
must be present for several seconds before the GCP/AMG is triggered), the fact that the GW 4 Gateway
was momentarily reset is not detected as an error.
GW4/232

Functional Overview
The following protocols are implemented in this GW 4 (interface converter from CAN bus to RS-232 interface):
Modbus RTU slave (only two participants are possible) GW 4/232/MOD

Leonhard data protocol GW 4/232/LDP
The following functions are supported with this:
Remote monitoring: display of all measured values

Remote control: data transmission
GW 4/232/MOD [Modbus RTU Slave]
Interface Data
Data Character length 8 bit

Stop bit 1 bit
Parity bit no parity
Data format 16 bit binary values
Transmission rates 1,200 / 2,400 / 4,800 / 9,600 / 19,200 / 38,400 Bauds
Procedure Modbus RTU Slave
A maximum of 20 words can be read or 10 words can be written with one command. Modbus function codes 03,
04, 06 and 16 are supported.
NOTE
Only two participants (1 Master and 1 Slave) can be connected for Modbus with interface RS-232.
Woodward Page 15/52

Remote Monitoring (Measured Value Display)
Refer to Appendix C on page 41 for data word assignment.
NOTE
Bit 15 in the addresses 0, 70, (always first address of the data block) is set, if the GW 4 receives data
from the CAN bus. (It may be used for CAN interface monitoring).
Remote Control (Sending Set Point Values/Control Commands)
Three words are sent cyclically from the GW 4 Gateway to each unit connected that can be controlled remotely.
These usually comprise:
Set point power

Set point power factor
Word containing control bits
The relevant words must be sent to the corresponding data blocks for transmission. Refer to Appendix C on
page 41 for data word assignment.
The meaning of the data depends on the lower-level unit and is contained in the manual of this unit.
GW 4/232/LDP [Leonhard Data Protocol]
The Leonhard Data Protocol is an ASCII protocol for connecting to a PC via a serial port. It allows remote con-
trol (transmission of set point values/control commands), remote monitoring (visualization of measured data),
and remote configuration (modification of unit parameters). This protocol is normally only used by the LeoPC1
program. Details about this protocol are available upon request.
The baud rate of this communications link can be configured to 38,400 or 9,600 Bauds. Please note that you have
to configure the same baud rate in LeoPC1.
NOTE
The GW 4/232/LDP may be operated with a modem, which does not require external configuration. We
recommend the following modems:
Analog connection: Phoenix PSI-Data/Fax-Modem/RS232
GSM connection: INSYS GSM 4.0
It is possible for both, to dispatch a fax or a short message by the means of a discrete input.

GW 4/232/LDP/MDM02

Functional Overview
The following functions are possible with the GW 4/232/LDP/MDM02 (interface converter from CAN bus to an
external modem):
Remote monitoring: display of all measured values via LeoPC1

Remote control: data transmission via LeoPC1
The device forms the interface between the CAN bus used internally at Woodward and an external modem of the
type
US Robotics Courier V Everything 56k SER von 3COM.
For this, the modem has to be connected as described under Coupling via GW 4/232/LDP/MDM02 on page 33. It
converts the data into an ASCII protocol (Leonhard standard protocol) which is used by the PC to write parame-
ters and perform remote monitoring.
The DIP switches of the modems should be configured as follows:
DIP Setting Meaning

1 ON Ignore DTR
2 OFF Replies as text
3 ON Activate replies
4 OFF Activate echo for offline operation
5 OFF Activate automatic call acceptance
6 OFF Normal carrier detection
7 OFF Display reply in all modes
8 ON Activate AT commands
9 OFF Terminate connection with escape code (+++)
10 ON Load &F0 configuration from ROM
NOTE
The GW 4/232/LDP/MDM02 is especially designed to control the US Robotics modem.
Active calling is not possible. However, if this function is necessary, refer to the note under GW
4/232/LDP [Leonhard Data Protocol] on page 16. The GW 4/232/LDP/MDM02 may be used like a
GW 4/232/LDP, but the different wiring and the fixed baud rate of 4,800 Baud must be considered.
Page 18/52 Woodward

GW 4/PRO

Functional Overview
The following functions are possible with the GW 4/PRO (interface converter from CAN bus to Profi-
bus DP Slave):

Remote configuration: changing non-volatile parameters (on request)
The GW 4 can transfer more data than the Profibus DP can simultaneously make available. For this reason, the
data is sent in packets from 0 to 7, each packet containing the data of one data block. Thus, packet 0 contains the
data of data block 1, packet 1 the data of data block 2, etc. In order to receive the data of a packet from GW 4,
the corresponding packet number (packet pre-selection) is transmitted from the higher-level controller. After re-
ceiving the packet, GW 4 sends an echo to the higher-level controller to acknowledge the successful transmission
(echo packet pre-selection). This echo will be sent twice in two different bytes. Only if both echo bytes contain
the same value, the received data block (70 words) is valid. The addresses of the received data are described un-
der Parameter on page 21. The meaning of the data depends on the lower-level unit and is contained in the ma-
nual of this unit.
Set point power

The relevant send commands of the Profibus DP transmission range must be written for transmission. The ad-
dresses of the transmission data are described in the following under Parameter on page 21. The meaning of the
data depends on the lower-level unit and is contained in the manual of this unit.
Woodward Page 19/52

Remote Configuration (Changing Non-Volatile Parameters)
NOTE
Improper configuration may result a damage of the system. A special training by Woodward personnel
is required for remote configuration.
The following sequence is necessary for reading and writing the parameters (the addresses of the receiving and
transmission data are described in the following under Parameter on page 21):
1.) A remote configuration can only be started if the status of the remote configuration is "zero". If this is
not the case, the command "Remote configuration" must be set to "zero", until this status is reached.
2.) The ID of the value to be configured is written to "ID remote configuration".
3.) If a value is to be written, this value has to be written to "Data remote configuration".
4.) The number of the unit to be configured [1 to 8] has to be written to the second byte of "Command re-
mote configuration".
5.) If parameters are to be read, 255d (0xFFh) will be written to the first byte of " Command remote confi-
guration ", and for the case that values are to be written, 238d (0xEEh) will be written to this byte.
6.) There is a delay until bit 2 is set in "Status remote configuration" of approximately 500 ms).
7.) If bit 0 in "Status remote configuration " is set, a failure has been detected. As a result, the complete se-
quence has to be repeated beginning with 1.
8.) If a value is to be read, this value is contained in "Echo data". The sequence is finished consequently.
9.) If a value has been written, the written value has to be read for checking it (as described above).
The assignment "ID Configuration value" differs for each unit to be configured and can be delivered on re-
quest.
Notes
The data is organized word-by-word with leading high byte.
Receive test byte The receive test byte can be used to check the connection between higher-level con-
troller (Profibus Master) and GW 4, bit 0 of which is changing every 2,5 seconds.
Transmission test byte Bit 0 may be used as test bit for the GW 4. If watchdog monitoring is enabled using
the configuration screens, the master has to change this bit at least every 4 seconds.
GW 4 monitors this inversion and re-initializes the interface if this is not the case.
Monitoring can be disabled using the configuration screens without affecting the
function.
GSD file The GSD file on the enclosed floppy disc is to be used. The GSD file may also be
downloaded on the GW 4 product page of the Woodward website.
NOTE
It must be observed that the Profibus connection of the PLC requires a Master, which has at least 200
Bytes consistency range. PLCs with lower consistency range do not work.

Machine Bus Monitoring For GW 4/xxx/MOD

The Modbus (terminals Y1/Y5) is monitored with regard to its function. If a function is no longer detected, a
fault message is issued on the guidance bus (terminals X1/X5).
Meaning of the bits in control word 3 of the telegram "Remote control via Gateway GW 4" of the GCP:
Guidance bus Modbus
----- (terminals X1/X5) ----- GW 4 ----- (terminals Y1/Y5) -----
Bit Meaning
Bit 15 passed through from Modbus
Bit 3 always 0
Bit 2 for Y bus monitoring Y bus bit
- 0 if Y bus OK If Modbus monitoring can be
- 1 if Y bus not OK switched on/off via remote configu-
- otherwise always 0 ration, this bit is evaluated by GW 4
thereupon.
- 0 Monitoring ON
- 1 Monitoring OFF
Bit 1 passed through from Y bus
Bit 0 passed through from Y bus
NOTE
In order to stop Y bus monitoring, only the respective bit has to be set to 1 for one generator.
NOTE
In case of the data word 2, power factor (cosphi), it is possible to set bits 8 through 15 to 0 with the pa-
rameter "Delete Hi-Byte Word 2".
This may be used to indicate that the CAN connection is still active to some devices.

Practical Applications
Structure of the GW 4

The GW 4 transmits data from a bus to the CAN bus.
Master: --------------------------------- GW 4 --------------------------------- up to 8 recipients:

e.g. PLC connected to GW 4 via: CAN bus e.g. GCP
Profibus
Modbus
LDP / MDM02
The CAN Interface

General Information
Up to 8 units can be connected to the GW 4 using the CAN bus.
The baud rate of the CAN bus is 125kBaud and cannot be configured.
The GW 4 receives only CAN messages in the formats
DD <Mux> <data word 1> <data word 2> <data word 3>; Mux from 0 to DC Hex
or
<Mux> DD <data word 1> <data word 2> <data word 3>; Mux from 1 to DC Hex.
The last format is outdated and shall not be supported in future.
Settings for Receiving CAN Messages

The GW 4 receives by default on the following CAN IDs:
CAN ID Block No.

801 Block 1
802 Block 2
803 Block 3
804 Block 4
805 Block 5
806 Block 6
807 Block 7
808 Block 8
These blocks can be changed using the parameter: "Block x receive on CAN-ID xxxx".
If the GW 4 receives data, the "X" LED is flashing.
Woodward Page 35/52

Size of the Receive Blocks

A block may receive a maximum of 138 bytes. This is enough for most units.
The parameter "expand block x" allows to unite two blocks to one. 276 bytes can be received then.
However, the subsequent block cannot receive data anymore then.
Block 1 expanded Receives data on CAN ID of block 1

Block 2 Receives no data; data on CAN ID is ignored
Block 3 not expanded Receives data on CAN ID of block 3
Block 4 Receives data on CAN ID of block 4
Reading out data from an expanded block is performed like for two not expanded blocks.
Please note:
Modbus: Data word 0 of the block following the expanded block corresponds with data word 70 of the con-
nected device.
Profibus: One package may contain one block. This means that the PLC has to read the packages 0 and 1 for ex-
panded blocks.
Notes to expanded blocks:

If a block is expanded, the data for the following block is ignored. But no CAN IDs should still be configured
identically.
Sending CAN Messages

CAN messages can be sent via the GW 4.
These are remote control and configuration messages coming from the master.
Sending a message from the GW 4 is performed on CAN ID 830 or 831. The CAN ID is configured using the pa-
rameter "Transmit-ID".
If a receiver is connected to the GW 4 (GW 4 receives data), the GW 4 transmits remote control messages.
Remote control messages are only transmitted for connected units.
A remote control message consists of 3 CAN messages.
This is performed once for each recipient every 3 seconds.
With this, 24 CAN messages are sent every 3 seconds for 8 recipients.
For 1 recipient, only 3 CAN messages are sent in 3 seconds.
Depending on the connected receiver, it may be necessary to transmit the remote control messages faster or
slower. This is performed using the parameter "Remote control m. at xxs".
If 10 seconds is entered here, 24 CAN messages will be sent every 10 seconds for 8 recipients, or only 3 CAN
messages for one recipient.
If the GW 4 shall not send CAN messages, the parameter "receiver only" must be configured YES.
Page 36/52 Woodward

Notes to expanded blocks:

Fixed device numbers are assigned to the blocks:
Block No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Device No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
A remote control message will only be only sent to a device no., which is recognized as active. If a block is con-
figured to 'extended', the following device will not be detected as active.
If block 1 is configured as 'extended' for example, the device with the generator no. 2 will not be detected as ac-
tive, even if visualization data is received on block 3.
In order to avoid this problem, one or more GW 4 may be used to receive the visualization data, and another to
send the remote control data.
NOTE
If several GW 4s are connected to one CAN bus, the Transmit ID must be configured differently, or the
GW 4 must be configured in a way that it does not send CAN messages (see above).
Woodward Page 37/52

The Profibus Interface

The GW 4 may be equipped with a Profibus DP slave interface. It is used to connect to a PLC.
The baud rate of the Profibus interface is predetermined by the master.

The Profibus station has to be configured at the GW 4 using the parameter "PROFIBUS station".
A data volume of 186 bytes is transmitted on the Profibus. The meaning of each byte can be found under
Parameter on page 21.
The general sequence is as follows:
1. Write the number of the desired block into byte 0 "Packet preselection" of the data sent by the Profibus
Master.
2. Wait until this number re-appears in both bytes (9 & 184) "Echo packet preselection" (the received data
block is only valid if the same values is contained in both bytes). The data of the selected block is transmit-
ted.
3. Check, whether bit 8 is set in byte 8 "CAN watchdog". If yes, CAN data is also received on this block.
4. The data on byte 10 to 147 can be evaluated. (See description of the unit, which is received by the GW 4 on
this block.)
Modbus

The Modbus protocol can be used with an RS-232 or an RS-485 interface hardware.
The GW 4 operates as Modbus slave.
Baud rate, parity and number of stop bits are to be configured at the GW 4 like for the remote terminal.
The slave number is the number, which is used by the Modbus master to address the GW 4.
The parameter "Delay to send Modbus" is used to configure a minimum time between receiving a message and
the reply of the GW 4s. This is important to give the master enough time to release the line for the reply if the
GW 4 is connected to the master via an RS-485 interface.
Modbus Monitoring
A unit connected to the GW 4 can detect with Modbus monitoring, whether the Modbus master is still active or
not.
This serves for validating the transmission of remote control data.
The parameter "Timeout Y-Bus monitoring" must be configured YES for this.
The parameter "Timeout Y-Bus max. delay" is used to configure the minimum time, for which the Modbus has to
fail, before an alarm is issued.
NOTE
If no remote control data is sent by the master, but only visualization data is read out, the Modbus is
considered as OK. No failure is reported to the connected units.
The parameter "Timeout Y-Bus switchable" is used to determine whether the Modbus monitoring can be enabled
or disabled by the master or not.
Page 38/52 Woodward

Sending Data
Data, which is sent to the GW 4, can not be read out.
The parameter "Delete Hi-Byte Word 2" is used to determine whether the High byte of the control word for the
set point power factor transmission is always set to 0. Some units have to rely on this because they use this to
check whether correct data is sent on the CAN bus.
LDP Protocol

The parameter "Baudrate" must be configured the same in LeoPC1 and in the GW 4.
Apart from that, the GW 4 has the following data: no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.
The parameter "Protocol Type" must be configured 2 if the extended standard protocol is used in LeoPC1.
Modem

The LDP protocol is used for the GW 4/MDM02.
The GW 4/MDM02 can be connected directly to a PC like a GW 4/LDP.
When wiring the unit, ensure that Y2 and Y4 are jumpered.

The baud rate must be configured to 4,800 bauds in LeoPC1.
Several GW4s at one CAN Bus

It is principally possible to connect several GW 4s to one CAN bus.
But the following has to be noted for this:
The Transmit ID of the GW 4s must not be the same. The parameter "receiver only" is configured YES for this
no data is transmitted.
Now, remote control/configuration is possible with a GW 4.
Woodward Page 39/52

Appendix B.
Application Restrictions
Only one GW 4 may send at one time on the CAN bus (Parameter "receiver only" = NO).
The GW 4 is only able to remote control units, which are assigned to the device numbers 1 to 8.
70 data words = no extended block (standard)

more than 70 data words = extended block (e.g. easYgen-1500, GCP-30 with SB03 or SC06, SC07, SC08)
Number of devices Application Required GW 4s Comments

8 devices with Visualization and 1 GW 4 Device no. 1 is to be assigned to receive
70 data words remote control box no. 1 and so on.
