Abstract : Our paper is aimed at developing an industrial oriented Embedded Serial Data Interpreter for protocol conversion. At present, many industrial establishments face the problem of protocol compatibility with the external monitoring devices. This problem has been solved by my paper. We have successfully deployed it for monitoring ESP controllers manufactured by BHEL Ranipet. The Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) controllers manufactured by BHEL are using dedicated protocol for communicating with each other. Hence they cannot be directly linked with the Distributed Control System (DCS) panel, which uses universal Modbus protocol for communication with all the power system components to monitor its operation. Hence, We have interfaced the ESP controllers with DCS via Serial Data Interpreter.In order to test the functionality of the paper, a simulation has been performed in BHEL simulation lab. The simulation results agreed with the predicted results confirming the successful operation of the Interpreter.
