Tunnel Lighting Monitoring
Il problema
Tunnel entrance lighting runs at full stages regardless of outside luminance, wasting energy, and failed circuits are found only on night inspections.
Panoramica della soluzione
MILESGO gateways collect data from lighting control panels, luminance meters, electricity meters, run/stop and fault dry contacts over Modbus RTU / Modbus TCP / DyNet, and deliver it to SCADA, the energy management system, SMS, email and messaging alarms as OPC UA / MQTT / Modbus TCP. Field equipment keeps its own protocol and control logic; integration is done by configuration and point mapping, not custom code.
Typical scope
- lighting control panels
- luminance meters
- electricity meters
- run/stop and fault dry contacts
Protocol path
Modbus RTU / Modbus TCP / DyNet → OPC UA / MQTT / Modbus TCP
Implementation checklist for the project manager
- Write the control sequence (start/stop order, interlocks, set-points, fallback on communication loss) and have it approved before programming.
- For hard-wired signals, list each DI/DO/AI/AO with its type (dry contact, 4–20 mA, 0–10 V, PT1000) and choose I/O modules accordingly.
- Commission in read-only mode first; enable write / control points only after the client approves each one.
- Record CT ratios, meter IDs and multipliers in the point table; wrong multipliers are the usual cause of billing errors.
- Define an alarm matrix (priority, recipient, escalation) and test every alarm end to end at SAT.
- Hand over configuration backups, point table, IP plan and as-built drawings, with a short operator training.
Project deliverables
- Signed point table and protocol mapping
- Gateway configuration files and backups
- IP address plan and network drawing
- FAT and SAT test records
- As-built documentation and operator training
Architettura del sistema
Field layer: lighting control panels, luminance meters, electricity meters, run/stop and fault dry contacts, connected over Modbus RTU / Modbus TCP / DyNet. Edge and integration layer: MILESGO protocol gateways and edge controllers, mounted on DIN rail in existing panels, polling each device, time-stamping values and buffering them locally. Upper layer: SCADA, the energy management system, SMS, email and messaging alarms, which receives the data as OPC UA / MQTT / Modbus TCP. Remote access for maintenance runs over VPN rather than open internet ports.

Fasi di realizzazione
- 1
Site survey and point list
Inventory devices, protocols, register maps, panel space, power and network paths.
- 2
Design and point table sign-off
Map every point to the target protocol and system; agree it with the client and the upper-system contractor.
- 3
Configuration and FAT
Build the gateway configuration off site, simulate it and test against the signed point table.
- 4
Installation and wiring
Mount gateways on DIN rail, wire RS-485 / I/O / Ethernet, apply the IP plan.
- 5
SAT and alarm tests
Verify values against local readings, test every alarm and command end to end.
- 6
Handover and support
Hand over configuration backups, point table and as-built documents; train operators.
Valore per il cliente
- Consumption visible by area, system and time period
- Alarms reach the right person by SMS, email or messaging apps
- Reliable trend data for optimisation and fault diagnosis
- Open interfaces (BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, HTTP) avoid lock-in to one vendor
