5 MASTERBUS
5.1 WHAT IS MASTERBUS?
All devices that are suitable for MasterBus are
marked by the MasterBus symbol.
MasterBus is a fully decentralized data network for
communication between the different Mastervolt system
devices. It is a CAN-bus based communication network
which has proven itself as a reliable bus-system in
automotive applications. MasterBus is used as power
management system for all connected devices, such as
the inverter, battery charger, generator and many more.
This gives the possibility for communication between the
connected devices, for instance to start the generator
when the batteries are low.
MasterBus reduces complexity of electrical systems by
using UTP patch cables. All system components are
simply chained together. Therefore each device is
equipped with two MasterBus data ports. When two or
more devices are connected to each other through these
data ports, they form a local data network, called the
MasterBus. The results are a reduction of material costs
as only a few electrical cables are needed and less
installation time.
For central monitoring and control of the connected
devices Mastervolt offers a wide range of panels which
show full status information of your electrical system at a
glance and a push of a button.
New devices can be added to the existing network in a
very easy way by just extending the network. This gives
the MasterBus network a high degree of flexibility for
extended system configuration, not only today, but in the
future as well! Mastervolt also offers several interfaces,
making even non-MasterBus devices suitable to operate in
the MasterBus network.
5.2 EVENT BASED COMMANDS
With MasterBus each device can be programmed to
initiate an action at another connected device. This is done
by means of event based commands.
Example: if the shore power is almost in overload, the
generator must be started. As the shore power is
measured by the Mass Systemswitch, this device is
considered as the command source. The generator is the
device that should initiate an action (start the generator),
and is therefore considered to be the target. This means
that the Mass Systemswitch must be programmed as
follows:
Event
source:
Shore pre
overload
Select from list of events
sources (see Mass
Systemswitch manual)
Event
target:
Generator
Select from the device list
(devices connected to
MasterBus)
Event
command:
Status
Select event command from
the list of event commands of
the target (see Generator
manual)
Event
data:
On
Select event data from the
list of event commands of the
target (see Generator
manual)
See section 6.3.4 for the list of events sources and section
6.3.5 for the list of event commands of the Mass System-
switch.
