1 Introduction

The Cello is a data logger with integrated GSM capability for remote communications. It
combines the multi-channel logging capabilities of Technolog data loggers with the
versatility of the GSM network. A GPRS version is also available.

The Cello concept is suitable for a wide range of applications with versions available for
applications in the clean water, waste water, gas and electricity sectors.

The following Cello versions are currently available:

Water Applications

Two channel flow
Two channel flow and one channel pressure (integral or external pressure sensor)
Universal 8 channel
Two channel internal/external pressure with up to 6 channel flow
Two channel 4-20mA Loop powered with up to 6 channel flow
Ultrasonic Level Detector (Certified Intrinsically Safe for use in Gas Zone 0, Equipment
Group II, Category 1 to EEx ia IIC T4) (TA =-20 to +60c)

Gas Applications (Cello IS: Certified Intrinsically Safe for use in Gas Zone 0,
Equipment Group II, Category 1 to EEx ia IIC T4) (TA = -20 to +60c)

Two channel flow
Two channel flow and one channel pressure (integral pressure sensor)
One channel pressure (integral pressure sensor)
Cathodic protection (non-IS version)
Two channel flow and 2 channel state (Cello 6 detailed in a separate manual)

Electricity Applications

Cello EM (Detailed in a separate manual)

The Cello as standard utilises SMS (Short Message Service) provided by the GSM
network. In order to maximise battery life, Cello is programmed to wake up at regular
intervals or, in the event of an alarm, to send the latest data, alarms and other information
across the network to a host PC running Technolog PMAC Plus software.

Data may be sent from several thousand Cellos simultaneously to one PC. The system
allows data messages to be received in a controlled manner and avoids loss of information.
If, for any reason, messages are lost by the GSM network, PMAC will recognise this as a
data gap and request the missing data to be resent. Similarly, if a Cello is unable to send
data messages due to poor signal strength etc., these will be sent the next time Cello
connects to the GSM network.

The Cello supports high and low threshold alarms, windowed alarms and profile alarms on
each channel. Alarms can be set remotely using the PMAC Alarm Wizard software on the
host PC. Cello will send an alarm message to the host PC at the next logged interval after
alarm limits are exceeded. Data can also be sent with the alarm and, if required, data can

User Manual
Version 4





UM583000 Issue 4 Page 5 of 45
DMR 3512
be sent at more frequent intervals after an alarm for a user-defined period, for example,
every hour for 6 hours.

An Hourly wake-up build option of the Cello is available. With this variant it is possible to
poll the Cello to retrieve the most recent data.

When the Cello starts recording, the contents of its notepad are sent to the host PC. The
notepad details are stored in a logger settings file and can be viewed from the site
database. Should there be any further changes made locally to the Cello notepad, the new
notepad details are automatically sent to the host PC and the logger settings file is updated.

2 Preparing a Host Computer for use with Cello

Technologs PMAC Plus software (issued August 2000 or later) should be installed on the
host PC. The software installation procedure is detailed separately in the PMAC user
manual.

Please note that there are regular software upgrades. It is recommended that the latest
version of PMAC Plus should be utilised wherever possible.

2.1 Communications Devices

A communications device is required to receive data messages (Cello data) from the GSM
network. There are several methods of providing a connection between the host PC and
the GSM network. This manual covers the three most popular connection methods, the
Falcom A2D or Tango GSM modem used throughout the world, the Vodafone Paknet
Radio-PAD (for use with the UK Vodafone network only) and the Utility Data Network
(UDN). Note that the Vodafone RadioPAD consists of two communications devices housed
in a single package requiring only one antenna.

The choice of communications device depends on several factors including the country,
GSM tariffs, number of Cellos etc. Please consult Technolog for specific advice on the most
suitable communications device.

One or more modems can be configured in PMAC to receive Cello data, as shown below.
In the case of multiple modems being used, each modem requires its own serial port (a
Vodafone RadioPAD requires two serial ports to make use of both NUAs).

2.2 Adding a Communications Device to PMAC Plus Modems and radioPADs

Connect the communications device to an available serial port (comms port) on the host
PC, log in as a System Manager and proceed as follows:

(i) Click on the Devices tab in the PMAC Communications Settings window. Click on
Add Select Cello Modem and then Next.

UM583000 Issue 4 Page 7 of 45
DMR 3512

(ii) Select Communication Port is now displayed. Select the comms port to which the modem
is attached and select Next.

(iii) The Select Setup String window will now appear. Choose the modem you have attached
and then select Next.















(iv) You are now required to select the Cello Baud Rate. This should be set
according to the modem type as follows:

GSM modems (Falcom A2D or Tango): 9600 baud

X.25 Radio PAD: 4800 baud

Select Next.

(v) Choose the Dial-out Group you wish your modem to belong to. Normally this would be
Cello Modems. Select Next.

(vi) Choose a name to identify your modem within PMAC Plus and select Finish. The Cello
modem will now be added to PMAC and is ready for use.

2.3 The Utility Data Network (UDN)

The Utility Data Network (UDN) allows the user to receive Cello data through a dedicated internet
link as opposed to external modems. The UDN is a receiving, storage and routing facility that can
process many thousands of messages in a minute. The benefits of this system include complete
redundancy as two external connections are made to receive the data, 30 day backup of all
messages, re-send of data during working hours, storage of all undelivered messages indefinitely if
receiving PC fails for example and much faster receipt of messages. Messages are not opened or
interpreted at Technolog; the presence of the UDN between the GSM network and customer host
PMAC PC is transparent to the user.

UDN accounts have to be set up at Technolog and also on the host PC; contact your Technolog
representative for account details. The host PC connection is configured through the PMAC
Communication Settings window, following the opening of Port 8100 in your software and/or
hardware firewall.

(i) Click on the Devices tab in the PMAC Communications Settings window. Click on
Add Select Utility Data Network (TMSC/SMPP) and then Next.





(ii) Select TMSC 1 from the drop down menu and then Next.

(iii) Insert your account name and Password as supplied by Technolog and then Next.

(iv) Select Dial-out Group Utility Network and then Next.

(v) Insert your required connection name and then Next.

(vi) Select Finished.

(vii) Repeat for the second TMSC connection

User Manual
Version 4





UM583000 Issue 4 Page 10 of 45
DMR 3512





The TMSC connection can be verified by
looking in the PMAC Comms Driver after you
have installed both TMSC connections and
closed the PMAC Communications Settings
window. A correctly configured system will
have a pair of connections stating waiting for
messages for each TMSC connections you
set up. A response of Failed to connect to
SMPP Server would indicate either incorrect
account details or that the firewall port has
not been opened.

3 Installation

The Cello is housed in an enclosure that allows installation in the typical environments
found in the gas and water utilities. This includes domestic water meter boundary boxes,
district water meter chambers, 6 x 6 underground chambers and above ground kiosks.

A wall mounting bracket also is available.

(i) For further details of installations in Non-I.S. applications, refer to the latest revision of
Technolog document UG583000 (Cello Mk.3) or UG5A3000 (Cello Mk.4) as applicable.

(ii) For further details of installations in I.S. applications refer to the latest revision of Technolog
Document UG593000.

TIP: The PMAC SMS system can be used to automatically confirm that Cello is correctly setup in the
PMAC site database. PMAC SMS is described separately in the PMAC SMS manual


3.1 Signal Strength Test

Note : In I.S. applications, the associated Fast Barrier Unit (FBU) must be located in the safe
area along with the P.C.

UM583000 Issue 4 Page 12 of 45
DMR 3512
The following screen will appear:





















Enter the duration of the test (a minimum of 2 minutes is recommended) and press
RETURN. Then press 1 to start the test.

(iv) Disconnect the communication cable and place the Cello as close as possible to its
anticipated location. If installing in an underground location, ensure that the Cello is raised
as high as possible to improve the signal strength (but not within two inches of any metal
part of the chamber lid, as this can disrupt the outgoing signal).

The PC will indicate the remaining time to complete the test and will report when the test is
complete. When the test is complete, press any key to return to the main menu.

Note: If the Cello is located under a metal cover and the test reveals inadequate signal
strength, a meter boundary box (with a plastic cover), or similar, should be considered. In
this case, the test should be repeated but with the Cello placed above ground and adjacent
the chamber.

(v) Choose option 2 to read the test data. Connect the communication cable to the Cello and
press any key. The program will then read the signal strength data from the Cello.

(vi) Enter the site details as required. The data will be stored in the same directory as the Signal
Strength Test program with the format xxxx_01.sig (proprietary format) and xxxx_01.txt
(text format), where: xxxx is the 4-digit id for the site. You will then be returned to the main
menu.

(vii) Choose option 3 to view the data and then 1 to view the most recent file or 3 to view a
different file.

DMR 3512
(viii) The data will appear as a list of base stations (GSM radio transmitters) and signal strengths
as below. The greater the value, the better the signal strength. The maximum signal
strength is 63.

Signal strength greater than 13 for the duration of the test is normally required to ensure
satisfactory operation at all times.

The example below shows the results of a 1 minute test.

For the above test, a Cello with a Cellnet sim would be selected as the first choice of GSM
service provider as signal strength is greater than 13 for the duration of the test. Press Esc
to return to the main menu and then choose option 4 to exit the program.


















(ix) If the Cello has a SIM card fitted, only base stations for that particular GSM service provider
will be reported. For example, if the test is performed using a Cello with a Vodafone SIM
card fitted, only Vodafone base stations would be reported.

To search all available networks a Cello without a SIM card fitted should be used.
Performing a test with such a Cello will bring back results from the strongest base stations,
regardless of network.

3.2 Configuration and Setup

The setup procedure is performed by connecting the Cello communications port to a
computer installed with Technolog software. Several computer types and operating
systems are supported. This User Guide describes the procedure for the PC General
Purpose Software (GP1 and GP2), PC PMAC Plus and PMAC Lite software, Psion
Workabout Dragons software and PDA Pocket PMAC software. Cello Wizard software for
PC and PDA is also suitable and is covered in a separate manual.

Note : Cello I.S. requires a Fast Barrier Unit (FBU) to be interposed in the safe
area, between the Cello I.S. and the P.C. (or other).The following stages should be

3.2.4 PDA Pocket PMAC Software

Version 1.7 or later of the Technolog Pocket PMAC software should be installed on the host
PDA. The software installation procedure is detailed separately in the Pocket PMAC user
manual.


(i) Connecting Cello to the PDA

Connect the PDA to the Cello communications port (4 way connector) using the PDA
logger cable (Supplied by Technolog) and the PDA serial cable (supplied with your PDA).

Note: Cello IS requires a fast barrier unit (FBU) to be interposed in the safe area,
between the PDA and the Cello IS.

(ii) Configuring Cello for an application

Execute the Pocket PMAC software and proceed as follows:



From the Pocket PMAC Main Window,
Select Setup Logger to display the
Setup Logger Window followed by
Configure. Select the configuration
file required for the application from
the drop down menu and choose
Configure Logger. The Cello will now
be configured for your chosen
application. When complete, select
Close to return to the Setup Logger
window.




Note: Configuring any logger will overwrite any data currently stored in the logger

(iii) Entering site details in the Cello Notepad

From the main menu on Pocket PMAC, select Setup Logger followed by Setup Notepad.
The Cello Notepad will be displayed. The precise details will be dependent on the
configuration file but will generally be as shown on the next page:

Cello GSM Data Logger
User Manual
Version 4





UM583000 Issue 4 Page 27 of 45
DMR 3512



This would normally include Site name,
Site No. and PMAC ID which are all
editable. Click on each one in turn and
enter the site specific details using the
pop-up keyboard. Additional lines relate
to the individual channels and would
include, for example, the pressure
range for a pressure channel or the
flow scale factor for a flow channel.
Select Save After amending each line
followed by Write Notepad to write the
details to the Cello and return you to
the Setup Logger menu.








(iv) Setting the remote communications parameters


Select Dial-out Settings-> from the
Setup Logger window and then select
Setup Dial-Out. Tick the Enable
Regular Dial-out box and change
the Logger Dial-Out Time if required.
Enter the number of the host PC
communications device that will receive
the data into the PMAC Data field. For
Cellos using the UK Vodafone
network, this will be 23533900
followed by the six-digit NUA of
the RadioPad e.g. 23533900123456.
For UK TMSC Cellos this will be 81714
For other Cellos this will be the phone
number of a GSM modem.
Choose Update Logger to save these
details to the Cello and then choose
Close.

UM583000 Issue 4 Page 28 of 45
DMR 3512




(v) Checking signal inputs and adjusting offsets

Select Set Inputs from the Setup Logger window.
The live reading for the first channel will be
displayed. If the reading appears to be
incorrect, this may be due to the scale factor
entered in the Notepad being incorrect or the
offset requiring adjustment.

If the input requires zeroing, or the offset to be
adjusted, this is achieved as follows: choose the
channel and select Set Input followed by
Zero Input. Ensure that all pressure channels
(if fitted) are zeroed before continuing.





NB: Cellos with an integral pressure sensor must always be zeroed after
configuration!




(vi) Setting the Cello clock and starting recording

Select Start/Stop, Status +Clock. Ensure
that the Cello is set to the correct time by
clicking Sync to PDA. Obviously you will
need to ensure that your PDA clock is set
correctly. Finally select Start Logger. The
Cello will commence logging. The Pocket
PC may now be disconnected.









IMPORTANT: Ensure that the dustcaps are fully tightened as the Cello is unlikely to be
visited regularly. Do not use lubricant on Cello connectors!

4 Additional Features

4.1 Cello Alarms

Cello supports three types of alarm strategy. These are high and low threshold alarms, high
and low threshold alarms that operate only during a preset time window (windowed alarms)
and profile alarms. All alarms can be programmed using the PMAC Plus Alarm Wizard
software.

To amend or save Cello alarms, execute PMAC and login with System Manager privileges.

(i) Execute the Alarm Wizard for your chosen site. The alarm wizard icon is displayed as a Bell
in the top line of the site database screen for all sites where alarms are possible.

(ii) Click on File->Open and load the .dat file for the particular channel of the Cello you wish to
create alarms for.

(iii) One day of data for the channel of data selected will be displayed. Use the arrow keys in to
move around the data.




The red mark at the bottom of your screen is the time that Cello transmits data.

DMR 3512
(iv) Select Alarms then Alarm Setup, to display the Alarm Setup window. Modify the alarm
options as required.





(v) Select OK. The alarms levels will now appear on screen. The following colour scheme is
used:



Cello GSM Data Logger
User Manual
Version 4





UM583000 Issue 4 Page 31 of 45
DMR 3512


Feature Line
Alarms Solid red
Data Solid blue
Windowed alarms Red dashed
Current alarm profile Orange dashed (with the corresponding
deadband limits above and below in solid red)



To adjust the profile from the default flat line (set at zero), use the mouse to draw lines as
required.

Any adjustments can be made by returning to the Alarm Settings window or by adjusting
the alarms (drag and drop) on screen. Following any adjustments being made, a message
will be displayed at the top of the screen stating This profile has not been sent to the
Logger.

(vi) Once the alarm levels have been set, the settings can be transferred to the Cello. Click on
File then Send to Remote Logger. At this point you may be asked to save the alarms
details to the .lgr file. PMAC will now send the alarm details to the Cello. At some time in
the future (depending on the Cello settings this may take several days!) the host PC receive
confirmation that the alarm settings have been transferred to the Cello and the message at
the top of the Alarm Wizard screen will change accordingly.

(vii) At the recording interval following where the data has crossed an alarm threshold, an alarm
message will be transmitted to the host PC. Depending on the settings, the Cello may also
update the data for a predefined period of time following the alarm (e.g. 6 updates at
intervals of 30 minutes), or send a Safe message at the recording interval following the
data returning within limits.


IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when setting alarm limits. If the limits are set
incorrectly, or too close to the normal limits, the alarm system will become
a nuisance to the user, reduce battery life and waste messages. Profile
alarms are not supported on Cellos earlier than Version 3.33.

4.2 Hourly Wake-up

Advancements in battery technology have allowed a greater variety in data send and
wakeup options. These are accessed either locally through the advanced section of the
dialout window in local comms or remotely through the dialout settings option on the Alarm
Wizard.

Normal use on hourly wakeup Cellos has Data send frequency set to Daily and Message
check frequency set to Hourly. Under these circumstances Cello will send data daily and
wake every hour to check for update data requests, responding accordingly. Data requests
can be initiated from the Line ->Update Line option on the graph or via PMAC SMS.
Please note that regular use of the data request facility or modifying the data send
frequency to hourly will use large numbers of text messages and deplete battery life greatly.


4.2.1 Local Activation

From the Local Comms screen choose Setup Logger to view the Cellos Setup window.
Select Dialout Settings and then choose Advanced Settings. For Cellos using firmware
3.44 or above, modifications can be made to Send Data frequency and Check For
Messages frequency. Modify as appropriate and select Close to return to the Logger Dial-
out and Alarms Editor window. Select Update Logger.

5 Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing difficulty with your Cello, Use the Cello diagnostics features
described in section 5.2 and check the Cello Event/Error Log table below. If you still have
problems after this, contact Technolog Cello Support on +44 (0) 1629 823611 or email
[email protected].

5.1 Cello Error Codes

The Cello records errors in an error log. Each entry in the error log contains the date and
time of the error, the signal strength at the time the error occurred (if known), the duration
the modem was switched on and the error code or message. The Cello is normally
configured to send error messages to the host PC when it next has contact with the
network. PMAC displays errors in the form of Alarm Banners, and records the information in
the Alarm Log.

This error log can be accessed locally through the error log option in the remote menu of
GPS, the Event Log option on the Cello Setup Window in PMAC, The Cello Error Log
option in the Logger Tools Window in Pocket PMAC or by using the MON-2 diagnostic
program.

5.3 PMAC Files

Several file types are used by PMAC with Cellos.

(i) Logger files (.lgr), stored in the PMAC/Loggers directory. This file contains details of
the Cellos notepad. These are created when the Cello is started recording and is
amended if any details are changed locally in the Cello. Alarm settings are also
saved as part of this file

(ii) Data files (.dat), stored in the PMAC/Data directory. Each file contains the data from
each Cello, sorted by PMAC ID and channel. Data is appended to the .dat file every
time the Cello dials in with new data.

(iii) Message Information File (.mif), stored in the PMAC/Data/Log directory. Holds
information on the number of messages in the Cello and when the last message
was received. Used in the Cello Message Count software.

(iv) Alarm Information File (.aif), stored in the PMAC/Data/Log directory. Holds
information on the current alarm settings for the Cello in question.

(v) Debug files (.txt), stored in the PMAC/Debug directory. Contains information relating
to all activity on the Communication ports during the day the file was created. Files
of the type Year_Month_Day_PMACDbg.txt are used in the GetCello diagnostic
software. Debug files are automatically deleted when they become more than thirty
days old.

(vi) By Site files (.txt), stored in the PMAC/Debug/BySite directory. Contains all
communications information relating to each individual site since the site was
created. These files are no longer generated on version of PMAC after November
2003 unless specifically requested

If you delete a Cello site from PMAC, be sure that all relevant .dat, .lgr, .mif, .aif and
.txt files are deleted.
