RediGate Diagnostics Manual
Table of Contents
Introduction
This manual describes diagnostic capabilities and some troubleshooting information for the RediGate industrial data gateway products, including:
- RediGate MMI user diagnostic menus
- Linux console commands
- UBoot, Bootloader, and startup sequence
The Elecsys gateway products are multi-function communication interface devices, which can be configured for many different types of applications such as protocol conversion, data concentration, and report-by-exception of data. Diagnostics are available to diagnose communication problems and to verify proper operation of every aspect of the system.
Some features described herein may only be available on more recent software releases of the gateway device. Variations between different product models will be distinguished where needed.
Configuration Requirements
This document refers to the gateway configuration or "ACE configuration," which is created and uploaded to the RediGate using the ACE Configuration Editor. See the article Installing ACE and the http://redigate.elecsyscorp.com/manuals/ page for documentation on using ACE to configure the RediGate.
Serial Diagnostics
The RediGate typically uses COM0 for a local serial diagnostics port. When the RediGate is powered on, it sends startup messages to its COM0 port. A terminal program must be set up with communication parameters configured for a baud rate of 115,200, no parity, 8 bits, 1 stop bit.
RediGate 100 series: COM0 is available via the Micro-USB port on the front of the device. See the article Installing USB Driver for installing the required USB serial driver in Windows.
RediGate 400 series: COM0 is a DB-9 RS-232 port. Pinout is: pin 3–TX, pin 2–RX, pin 5–GND (use a null modem serial cable to a configuration computer).
In order to use the serial diagnostics (MMI or Linux console) after startup, the following objects are required in the RediGate configuration:
- COM0 (AsyncPort instance 0, under Networks) - Should have 115.2K baud, and -1 for Warm Up and Warm Down Time.
- Serial MMI (under Servers) - Should have COM0 selected for Com Port.
Network Diagnostics
Diagnostics are available through a network connection via a secure shell (SSH) login, typically using IP port 22.
In order to use network diagnostics, the following things are required in the RediGate configuration:
- A RediGate with Ethernet must have an IP address configured to an Ethernet port;
- and/or, the RediGate must have the cellular modem configured, and have an activated cellular account that allows mobile-terminated connections.
(NOTE: Some cellular account activations do not allow SSH connections to be made to cellular device. Check with your account provider for information on this.
- The Firewall configuration must allow a user to make an SSH connection to the RediGate. In the Port Management table, include one or more entries to ACCEPT TCP port 22, such as:
User Accounts
The RediGate has three different user accounts that can be logged into for different purposes.
User Account | Password | File Transfer | User Menu Login | Linux Command Prompt |
---|---|---|---|---|
user | user (depends on ACE System object configuration) | COM0 ONLY No file transfer over TCP (SSH) | YES | NO |
Dirupld | user (depends on ACE System object configuration) | TCP (SSH) ONLY No file transfer over COM0 | NO | Yes (limited permissions) |
root | (contact Elecsys for default password) | TCP (SSH) ONLY No file transfer over COM0 | NO (but can use 'su user' to start the MMI) | YES COM0 or TCP (SSH) |
User Account: Provides access via a terminal console to the RediGate MMI diagnostic menus, described in this document.
The User account is also needed to load configurations or other files through the COM0 serial port.
The User account is configured in the System object of ACE. The default values for name / password are: user / user
When loading files with the User account, they are stored in the /home/director folder until being installed.NOTE: Do not use the User account when loading files over the network.- Dirupld (file upload) Account: Allows a non-root user to load files to the RediGate over the network.
The Upload account has a username of Dirupld (all lowercase except the first "D", next to last letter is lowercase "L"). The password is the same as the User Account.
When loading files with the Upload account, they are stored in the /home/Dirupld folder until being installed. Root Account: Provides administrative access to the Linux operating system and allows loading configurations or other files over the network.
The Root account is not configured through ACE for security reasons (see the article Changing the Root Password).
The user name is typically root and you can contact Elecsys by email idc-support@elecsyscorp.com for the default root password.
Loading files with the Root account allows files to be stored into either the /home/director or /home/Dirupld folder.NOTE: Do not use the Root or Dirupld accounts when loading files through the serial diagnostics port.
Setting Up Terminal Program
The RediGate diagnostics menu and console are accessed using a terminal program over serial or SSH. There are several terminal programs you can use.
Tera Term: The ACE Configuration Editor (as of version 3.5) includes a built-in option to "Connect to Device." See this article for details: ACE 'Connect to Device' Menu
PuTTY: See these articles for installing and setting up PuTTY:
Setting Up Putty for USB Connection (for RediGate 100 series)
Setting up PuTTY for Serial Communication (for RediGate 400)
Setting up Putty for Network Communication
ExtraPuTTY: Similar to PuTTY, but with additional options such as serial and network file transfer options. Download ExtraPuTTY from http://www.extraputty.com/download.php
Log in to the RediGate using the User account to access the user MMI menus. The following sub-sections describe the diagnostic options for each menu in the user MMI. After logging in to the MMI, the Main Manu is displayed. The current software version (tarball version, 2017-07-24-1300) is shown in the first line of each menu. On the second line is the Unit Name (UnitName), Unit Number (1), and Ethernet 0 IP address (192.3.1.10) which are set in the ACE configuration. The second line also includes the serial number (40170-0118), which is unit-specific. The four menu items under the Main Menu are: Menus are selected by typing the number next to the item and pressing Enter. Pressing Enter at any menu (except the Main Menu) will return to the next higher menu. RediGate User MMI

9- RPN Calculator
Main Menu → System Services → RPN Calculator
Reverse Polish notation calculator utility allows several simple calculations to be performed within the RediGate menu.
Enter 9 for RPN Calculator. Enter ? at any prompt to redisplay the menu, or Q to quit/exit the calculator.
The Reverse Polish notation calculator operates on numbers entered into a "stack", with the numbers entered first followed by the operator.
Use D to display all current values in the stack, C to clear all values in the stack, E to erase only the last (current) value in the stack.
Addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), division (/), and power X^Y (P) operate on the two highest numbers in the stack, displaying the result and leaving the result in the next lower stack position.
Modulo (M) divides the previous stack value X by current stack value Y and gives the remainder as an integer in the next lower stack location.
Square root (R), invert 1/X (I), natural log ln (L), inverse log ex (X), and trig functions (T) operate on the highest number in the stack, displaying the result and leaving the result in the current stack position.
Sum (S) all values in the stack (up to 80) and leave the sum in the lowest stack position.
Analysis (A) shows the average value and standard deviation of all values in the stack (leaving current stack values unchanged).
Floating point math (F) converts either from floating point to hexadecimal, or from hexadecimal to floating point. (Note: this operation does not use the RPN stack.)
For example:
- To calculate the value of (3 + 5) / 2, enter: 3 5 + 2 /
The result is a value of 4 in stack location [0].
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>0 3
Stack[0] = 3
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>1 5
Stack[1] = 5
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>2 +
Stack[0] = 8
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>1 2
Stack[1] = 2
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>2 /
Stack[0] = 4
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>1
- To convert a floating point number to hexadecimal, enter F and the number to convert. Enter 0 or 0.0 to exit the floating point calculator.
- To convert a hexadecimal number to floating point, enter F and some non-zero number. Then enter four hexadecimal bytes, most-significant to least-significant.
Value\Operator (+,-,*,/,?,I,L,M,C,Q,D,R,P,S,T,E,A,F,X) Stack>0 f

Main Menu → Directory Services → View Zombie.log
Enter 9 to view the Zombie.log file, if it exists.The Zombie.log file is created in /home/director if a RediGate process dies unexpectedly (Linux calls this a "Zombie" process). Certain diagnostic information is stored in the file, and then shortly afterward the RediGate will automatically reboot. The hope is that if the process died as the result of a one-time anomaly, the system will automatically recover itself.
When no Zombie.log file exists and a process dies, the RediGate will reboot relatively quickly (within a minute). If the Zombie.log file exists when the event occurs, such as a persistent condition (bad configuration setting, etc.), the reboot will be delayed longer (up to 9-10 minutes) to allow a technician to intervene, obtain log files from the RediGate, reconfigure it, etc., in order to remove the condition causing the Zombie process to occur.
Press the Space bar to page through to the end of the file. Newest entries are at the bottom. The Zombie.log shows the process name (which process died) and the date/time and other system conditions when it was detected.The Zombie.log file is never deleted automatically, but it can be deleted manually through the Delete File in Remote option, or through the command line or an FTP deletion.

After entering the file name, the file will be displayed one page at a time. Press the Space bar to page through the file, or enter Q to quit the display.
Comma-separated values are shown, following a CSV header. The header columns are:
- EpochTime is the timestamp of data in seconds since 1/1/1970 (32-bit integer, based on the system clock at the time); or if the Pacing is set to 0, the column will be EpochTimeMS (a 64-bit integer containing milliseconds since 1/1/1970).
- RegAddr_OR_TagName is either the RTDB register number, or the Tag name if configured for that register.
- Delivered is 1 if the data has already been published to MQTT, or 0 if not published.
- GoodQuality is 1 is the point quality status at the time it was logged (1=online, 0=offline).
- DataType is the type enumeration of the register (1=Boolean, 2=CHAR, 3=UINT8, 4=SINT16, 5=UINT16, 8=SINT32, 9=UINT32, 10=REAL32, 11=STRING-32, 12=STRING-256, 15=REAL64, 16=SINT64, 17=UINT64).
- Value is the register value at the time it was logged. String data might include commas, which would appear as additional CSV columns.
Below is an example of the content of the CSV file containing historical values using EpochTime (seconds).
- The data header is stored in the CSV file every time the connection goes from connected to disconnected state.
- This example shows tag names CycleCount, TankLevel, and PumpStatus, and an untagged register address 40001.
- The Delivered column is 1=Published or 0=Unpublished. (This value is only saved at the time the data originally stored and is not updated once the historical data is subsequently published.)
- The GoodQuality column indicates the Quality flag of the RTDB register at the time it was stored.
- The DataType column is 1=Boolean, 5=UINT16, 9=UINT32, 10=REAL32.
- The Value column shows the value in the data type. Boolean values are 0 or 1.

Debug Levels
Menu options 6, 8, 10, 12, and 16 are used to enable or disable various RediGate task diagnostics to a certain level of detail. Use option 99 (Monitor Diagnostics) to view the real-time activity based on the task diagnostic levels that have been set. If a certain event in the system occurs which is at or below the current Debug Level for that task, the message will appear in the diagnostics display. Menu option 5 shows the current list of Debug Level for all tasks.
Following is a description of the diagnostic Debug Levels:
- 0 = Fatal Errors – This is the least detailed type of debugging that can be selected. Such an event is fatal to system operation, effectively ending task operation.
- 1 = General Errors – These are operational or system errors that are not fatal in nature.
- 2 = Status Messages – (default) These are informational messages which describe important task status changes, etc.
- 3 = Data Displays – Somewhat more detailed display of protocol message headers or system events.
- 4 = Data Dumps – This is the most detailed level of diagnostic logging. All events relating to the system task are displayed in Monitor Diagnostics when this option is selected. For some tasks, this includes hex dumps of bytes sent or received.
1- System Status
Main Menu → Diagnostics Services → System Status
View certain system condition of the RediGate operating code, including the Linux build information and current message queues.

The Message Queues include message queue ID, owner and permissions of the task, and the number of used bytes and messages. For most users, this information is low-level and not too useful, but occasionally it can be informative of problems if one task is taking up a growing number of used bytes, or if the list of message queues continues to grow longer.

Enter 5 for Task Status.
The tasks are numbered sequentially (referred to as "slot numbers"), starting from 0. The name following each task is the mnemonic that appears in the real-time view as events occur.
The word following the task name (Status, Display, Dump, etc.) indicates the current Debug Level of the task (see Debug Levels).
Tasks are marked with All, None, or Some, to indicate whether debugging is enabled/disabled for all or part of the units associated with that task.

First, enter the Task Slot Number from the numbers that are listed. Depending on the task you have selected, you will have to enter a number of other information, starting with the new Debug Level that you wish to enable. NOTE: The Debug Level is GLOBAL for this task; i.e., it applies to all units (Node Addresses) associated with this task. If you wish to enable debugging for only one (or more) Field Unit or Node Address on a task, see NOTE below for Enable/Disable.
Task DNPMST00 Status ( All)
Valid Debug Level:
0 - Fatal Errors (Ending)
1 - General Errors (Error)
2 - Status Messages (Status)
3 - Data Display (Display)
4 - Data Dump (Dump)
Debug Level 0-4 or 'S'tats ?

If prompted, enter a Node Address within the task to which the diagnostics status will be applied. For master protocol tasks, this will be the Field Unit Address of the device being monitored. For other task types, other information will be prompted to identify the scope of the diagnostic level being applied.
Enter Node Address for Slot=5 (-1 for all) 1
If prompted, enter 1 to enable the diagnostics for the task, or 0 to disable diagnostics for the Node Address (or All).
Enter 0=Disable : 1=Enable [Default=1] ? 1
Enable/Disable
NOTE: If a task controls multiple Node Addresses (such as Field Units), diagnostics for each Node Address can be enabled or disabled separately. One or more units may have debugging enabled simultaneously—enabling diagnostics for a single unit does not automatically disable diagnostics for all the others.
For instance, to enable diagnostics for only 3 out of 10 Field Units on a master channel, first Disable diagnostics for "All" units; then select the Task Diagnostics menu multiple times to Enable diagnostics for only certain Field Unit node addresses. The last Debug Level selected applies to ALL enabled units controlled by this task.
After entering all information related to the task Debug Level modification, a single line output will indicate the change in status, and the list of tasks will generally be shown again.

Enter 12 for Slave Diags. Enter the enumeration, starting from 0, for the Slave Channel you wish to view or set.
Slave Channels are identified with a short name plus the numeric instance number of the task. Network Slave Channels may either end with a 'd' (for the listening socket) or a number (for an active socket connection). Examples:
- DNPSLAV0 = DNP Async Slave Channel, instance number 0
- MBNSL00d = Modbus Network Slave Channel 'daemon' (listening socket), instance number 0. This is the task that waits for incoming connections, and then spawns a separate task handling the active socket connection. If you set the Debug Level for this task, then any future connections to the socket will inherit the same Debug Level.
- MBNSL001 = Modbus Network Slave Channel (active socket connection #1), instance number 0. Many device protocol servers allow multiple simultaneous sockets to the same port. If you set the Debug Level for this task, it only applies to the current host connection to the socket. Once the socket connection is closed, the 'daemon' process controls the Debug Level of future connections.

17- MQTT Status
Main Menu → Diagnostics Services → MQtt Status
View status of the current MQTT connection. This menu shows diagnostics for any MQClient and MQClientExtra (instance 0 and 1 = MQidspX0 and MQidspX1) processes configured in the RediGate.
Enter 17 for MQTT Status. If MQTT is configured in the RediGate, the following information will be displayed:
- ConnectState – "Connected" if the MQTT socket is currently established with the server.
- Broker IP Addr – Address and port number, if connected to an MQTT server. If using a TLS-encrypted tunnel, this will typically be configured as a localhost (127.0.0.1) type address. If directly connected, the actual IP address of the server will be shown. If the connection to a server is not made, the address will show 0.0.0.0.
- Number Connects, Bytes & Messages Received/Sent, QOS – Number of MQTT connections that have been made and the amount of data transferred since the last restart of the RediGate.
- Last Send/Recv Time and Topic – Time and topic name

Linux Diagnostic Commands
(TBD) This section lists various Linux commands that can be useful for troubleshooting and diagnostics.
Linux mailboxes
These commands give the number of Linux "mailboxes" that are used in the system. In cases where resources are gradually getting used up by a process over time, the number of rows might increase. (The second command gives the number of rows.)
