OM 650 process control and information system

The OM 650 process control and information system is the interface between the
system and the operator in the control room. This window to the process enables
the process to be centrally monitored and controlled. In addition, the system
provides all functions that are required for logging the process and for archiving
the data.

AS 620 Automation System Overview

The AS 620 subsystem performs the automation tasks of the industrial


processes. The AS 620 acquires measured values and states from the process,
performs open and closed-loop control functions, and transfers the resulting
manipulated variable values, correction values, and commands to the process.
The other subsystems employ the AS 620 subsystem as the interface to the
process. The AS 620 transfers the commands from the OM 650 operator
communication and visualization system to the process, reads information from
the process that is required by OM 650, ES 680, or the DS 670 diagnostic
system and transfers this information to the upstream operator communication
and visualization level.
According to the different requirements that result from industrial measurement
and control activities safety relevant tasks (such as boiler protection), and high-
speed control tasks (at the turbine unit for example), various variants of the AS
620 automation system are available.

TXP-HW Course

AS 620 B
Basic system for general automation tasks, system and unit protection, closed-
loop control.
Central structure or distributed arrangement using buses are both possible.

FUM B variant: In a central structure, FUM modules (function modules) are used 1
for connecting the sensors and actuators of the process.

SIM B variant: SIM modules (signal modules) enable a distributed structure to


be set up (locally, in vicinity to the process). A bus connects the SIM modules
with the central system components.

AS 620 F
Fail-safe for protection and control tasks that require TÜV approval (e.g. burner
control).
Single and fault-tolerant structures are both possible, including the variants with
the fail-safe automation processor (APF) and the fail-safe programmable
controller (AGF).

FUM F variant: Configuration with the fail-safe APF automation processor and
the related FUM F modules (fail-safe function modules).

SIM F variant: Configuration with the AGF programmable logic controller. This
variant employs the SIMATIC S5 95 F programmable logic controller with SIM F
modules.

AS 620 T
Turbine controller and other high-speed control tasks at the turbine unit.

Auxiliaries connection
Signal exchange with SIMATIC S5 units or other manufacturer’s components,
such as, Allen-Bradley PLCs for example. The SIMATIC units contain the
implementation of a complete automation task that is not configured via ES 680.

Combinations:
Combining two or more system variants is possible. The components of the
different variants must then be connected to the same component of the AP
automation processor. Any combination of the above mentioned system variants
is possible, except mixing FUM F and SIM F (AGF) components at the same
automation processor.

ES 680 engineering system

The ES 680 engineering system is the central configuration system of TXP. ES


680 is used for configuring the AS 620 automation system, the OM 650 process
control and information system, the SINEC H1 FO bus system, and the
necessary hardware. ES 680 provides a configuration package for each target
system. ES 680 centrally administers all configuration data, which means data is
entered only once.
The configuration of the AS functions and processing functions in OM 650 are
based on control system flow charts. A control system flowchart editor in the ES
680 permits interactive entry of these control system flow charts.
The configuration principle of the ES 680 is based on consistent forward
configuration. Initial configuration and modifications are exclusively performed
through the configuration system with subsequent automatic code generation.
This guarantees real time documentation of the system hardware and all AS,
OM, and SINEC functions, and permits modifications to be centrally controlled.

SINEC H1 bus system

The network structure of the SINEC H1 bus system enables communication


between the individual sub-systems of TXP. The bus system complies with
international standards and consequently offers the prerequisites of open
communication.

DS 670 diagnostic system

The optional DS 670 diagnostic system is the tool that is used for monitoring and
detecting malfunctions in the I&C components of TXP.
In the event of a malfunction, the DS 670 swiftly points the user to the source of
the fault and informs about the cause and possible elimination of the fault.

Automatic Restart after Power Outage


In case of a mains voltage failure, the PC and the graphics server, if applicable,
are powered by the connected UPS. If the supply voltage does not return within
2 minutes the UPS will initiate a PC shutdown (approx. 3 minutes). During the
shutdown the mouse and keyboard are inoperable.

There are 2 status conditions possible during shutdown:


• If the voltage returns during shutdown, the PC automatically starts up after
completion of the shutdown.
• If the voltage does not return during shutdown the component is switched off
by the UPS, i.e. the UPS battery is no longer discharged.

After return of the voltage, the OM component (PC and graphics server)
automatically restarts. After the completion of the restart, the basic startup
display appears on each screen of the graphics server. The mouse and
keyboard are again inoperable.

AS 620B Automation System

Automation Processor (AP)

The AP is the central component of the AS 620 B and AS 620 F automation


systems. It is based on the SIMATIC S5 CPU 948R. All subordinate AS 620
components are linked with the plant bus (and thus with the OM 650 system) via
the AP.
System and unit protection functions are processed in the AP. In addition to the
base operations, a large spectrum of power plant related open and closed-loop
control blocks are available for this purpose. The user employs these blocks on
the graphical ES 680 tool to create the user program that executes in the AP. 3
The AS 620 T employs a special automation processor, the APT (SIMADYN D),
to solve high-speed control tasks at the turbine unit. The APT communicates with
the TXP systems on the OM 650 level via an AP.
The AP also plays an important role in the connection of auxiliaries
(programmable logic controllers). These PLC systems also always communicate
via an AP with the OM 650 level.
The hardware of the automation processor is based on a SIMATIC S5 155U
central controller (CC). Figure 1 shows the basic structure and a possible slot
allocation of the central unit used as an AP. The slot numbers appear on the
annotation strip of the central unit rack. The actual installation of interface
modules and communications processors in the individual slots depends on the
plant-related structure and on the variant of the automation system.

Principle of Operation

In a redundant system, identical user programs run in both sub-units. The sub-
units are ”event-synchronized”; that is, only those events that could produce
different internal ”states” in the two controllers cause them to be synchronized.
The internal ”state” is determined by the states of the memory areas used, such
as process image, flags, counters, timers, and data blocks.

On startup or restart, the S5-155H assumes one of the operating states shown
below:

Solo mode:
The master sub-unit alone scans the user program and controls the
process; the standby sub-unit is inactive.

Activating the standby:


The master sub-unit passes the current data to the standby.

Error search mode:


The master sub-unit scans the user program and controls the process; the
standby sub-unit executes the self-test.

Redundant mode:
The master sub-unit controls the process; the standby sub-unit runs in
parallel (”updated” mode), and is ready to take over at any time.

After both sub-units have been started up, they are synchronized to ensure a
bump-less transfer in the event of a fault. The synchronization procedure used in
the S5-155H is known as ”event-driven synchronization”, which means that the
sub-units are synchronized whenever an event occurs which could result in the
two sub-units having different internal states; for example different process
images, flags, timers or communications data. Synchronization is done at so-
called “synchronization points” which are at the end of each ground cycle.

Each sub-unit reads it’s one-sided inputs (if applicable). The ’switched’ inputs are
read only by the master, who then updates the input image for both sub-units and
generates a unified input image.

At the end of each ground cycle, the entire process output image (PIQ) in both
CPU 948Rs is immediately compared by the IM 324R card. The PIQ (switched
PIQ by the master, one-sided PIQ by each processor) is output. The self-test is
then run.

TXP-HW Course

Following the self-test, the process image input (PII) is read in again. The PII is
exchanged and unified and the ground cycle is re-called.

In each sub-unit, a check is made at every synchronization point to make sure


the other sub-unit is functioning. Depending on the result of the check, a switch
over from the standby to the master controller is performed and the message
”Standby failure” output.

The synchronization procedure is timed at each synchronization point by means


of a watchdog timer set to 30 ms. A check is also made at each synchronization
point to make sure that both sub-units are executing the same statement
(comparison of OP codes). If they are not, the standby controller stops and a 3
”synchronization error” is reported.

Switchover from standby to master takes place in the following instances:

1. Failure of the master CC (BASP, NAU or STOP switch)

2. Initial error search of both sub-unit CPUs unsuccessful (see ”Error search
mode”)

3. First failure of a master controller’s IM 314R when the standby controller has
access to a larger number of IM 314R interface modules than the master

4. First failure of a master controller’s I/O bus (i.e. a wire break) or failure of an
IM 304 when the standby controller has access to a larger number of IM 314R
interface modules than the master

5. First failure of a switched I/O module

In cases 3 to 5 the new standby CPU does not stop, but continues functioning as
a standby controller.

The functional sequence of a switchover from standby to master is as follows:

The standby controller checks the operational status of the master controller at
each synchronization point. Failure of a master is detected at the hardware level
by evaluating the S5 bus signals BASP and NAU in the IM 324R parallel
interface module. The standby CPU’s operating system detects the failure of the
master controller at the next synchronization point, and branches to a routine
which executes the following functions:

· Switches over the I/O buses of all IM 314R modules


· Switches all two-channel I/Os to single-channel operation
· Switches the operating system to Solo mode; that is, no sub-unit
synchronization

With regards to the I/Os allocated to the failed sub-unit, the following occurs:

· PIQ and PII are set to zero


· No ’ADF’ error is reported when this PIQ/PII is accessed
· Timeout is reported in the event of direct access to one of these I/Os

Self-Test Strategy

A redundant system’s highest priority is fault detection and fault localization. This
is required in order to control the fault. The S5-155H’s self-test routines run in
both CPUs. They detect and localize hardware failures in a minimal amount of
time. To localize a fault, it is necessary to only find out which modules are faulty
and to replace them.

Which self-test routines execute depends on the operating status of the system:

· Self-test in the Restart routine

The entire self-test is run when a central controller is restarted. If a fault is


detected at this stage, the CPU stops. Because the self-test takes longer
than one minute, it is skipped on a warm restart of the master controller.
During execution of the self-test in the Restart routine, the RUN and
STOP LEDs on the front plate show a steady light. A complete self-test is
run in all Restart modes.

· Self-test in cyclic mode

Each time the ground cycle is processed (once per cycle), part of the self-
test is executed in small slices (2 ms test slices). The self-test therefore
runs, transparent of the other software, or in the background, until a
hardware failure is detected.

Tested System Components

Important system components such as CPU, memory, I/Os and communications


links are continually tested and monitored. Following is a brief description of each
of these tests:

· CPU test

Includes testing of STEP 5 operations, timers, CMOS clock, interrupt


mask and the scan time monitor

· Firmware/RAM test 3

Comparison of the RAM in both sub-units and a checksum test of the OB,
SB, PB, FB, FX blocks and of the constants DB/DX. Also a RAM test for
all variable DB/DX

· I/O bus test with IM 314R

Tests for short-circuits and breaks in the 721 I/O bus cable to the IM 314R

· I/O bus test for page addressing

Page addressing is tested in cyclic mode once in every complete test run
and also once on each restart. The test detects the following faults:
· A CP/IP reacts to (acknowledges) not only its own interface
number, but also to the other 255 interface numbers
· An acknowledgement is issued by an unassigned interface
number

· IM 304R/IM 324R parallel interface test

The parallel interface’s dual-port RAM is tested on both sub-units A and


B to locate any short-circuits or cable/wire breaks

Self-Test in Error Search Mode

When an error is detected which, because it was found during a RAM


comparison test, could not be allocated to a specific sub-unit, the standby
controller enters the Error Search mode. This mode is also entered when a
discrepancy is found when comparing the output images of the two sub-units. In
Error Search mode, the self-test is not executed in slices, but rather in its
entirety, which takes approximately 10 to 30 seconds. Following is an example to
illustrate the functional sequence in Error Search Mode:

At the end of each ground cycle the two sub-units exchange and compare the
entire process output image (PIQ). If a discrepancy is found during this cyclic
PIQ comparison test, the memory locations in the PIQ are tested for ”stuck at 0”
and ”stuck at 1” errors. If such an error is found, only the malfunctioning sub-unit
stops.

If the error cannot be localized, the 155H responds by placing the standby
controller into the ”Error Search” mode and putting master controller into ”Solo”
mode.

If the self-test locates a fault in the standby controller, the standby stops.
Otherwise, the standby controller is activated and a standby-master switchover
initiated. The PLC now runs in “Redundant” mode. Should another comparison
error be found, the new standby controller enters the ”Error Search” mode while
the new master continues in ”Solo” mode.

If the self-test locates an error in the new standby controller, which is now in
Error Search mode, the standby controller stops and reports an error. If the self-
test cannot locate an error in this sub-unit either, the sub-unit stops with a
”Non-locatable error” if the second comparison error occurred within the same
test cycle.

Mode Selector Switch

The mode selector switch has two positions:

RUN
When the mode selector switch is set to ’RUN’ and the green LED is on, the CPU
is processing the user program.

STOP
The CPU goes to ’soft STOP’ when the user switches from
’RUN’ to ’STOP’. The red ”STOP” LED goes on.

Reset Switch

The restart functions ”Overall reset”, ”Cold restart” and ”Cold restart with
memory” can be initiated via the mode selector switch and the reset switch:

Function Switch position Description


OVERALL RESET Down An overall reset reinitializes
the internal RAM (meaning
any data currently in RAM are
erased and the contents of the
memory card, if any, are
copied to internal RAM). A
complete self-test is then
executed.
RESET (Cold restart) Up A cold restart, or RESET,
resets all flags, timers,
counters and the process
image. OB 20 is then called,
and user program processing
begins again.
Cold restart with memory Middle User program processing
begins again, but all flags,

EU902 FUM Rack

The function modules (FUM) of the individual control level are installed in the
EU902 racks. Each rack can accommodate upto 19 function modules and upto 2
IM614 interface modules. To ensure high availability, each function module has
two bus interfaces that are independent of each other. Each bus interface is
connected with a separate IM614 interface module via a separate rack bus.

The EU902 rack with the function modules connects to the AP via the IM304 and
IM 614 interface modules. One IM614 module of the rack connects to AP (A),
and the second to AP(B). This produces a continuous redundant bus connection
from the AP down to the function modules.

While the IM614 interface module in slot 155 is connected with AP(A), the IM614
in slot 163 is connected with AP(B).

Upto 4 IM614 interface modules in series connection may be combined to form a


bus chain that is connected to the AP via an IM304 module. The maximum
distance between the AP and the last IM614 of the bus chain is 100 meters.

Typical EU902 Rack configuration:

IM614 Interface module

The IM614 interface module is used in the As620 B automation processor for
connecting the function modules (FUM’s) to the AP automation processor. The
interface module is installed in each EU902 rack, and handles the entire data
traffic with the function modules in the rack

Two IM614 interface modules may be installed in each EU902 rack. This
provides a consistant redundancy of the I/O bus, from the automation processor
down to the function modules.

The major functions of the IM614 and IM304 interface modules are coupling the
higher order level (AP) with the FUM racks (EU902).

The Function Module (FUM) of the Individual Control Level

The function module (FUM) of the individual control level form the interface
between the process control system and the process. Functionality and
connections of the FUM modules have been designed such that they satisfy the
specific requirements of the power plant technology. The major tasks of the
function modules include:

· Acquiring, conditioning, processing, distributing and monitoring signals and


sensor supply
· Processing stand-alone automation tasks for individual closed- and open
loop control systems.
· Time stamp of 1ms resolution
· Monitoring function for simple and precise diagnosis in the event of failure.

Each module has its own microprocessor, a module related power supply, and
two independent bus interfaces that connect to the redundant cabinet bus
system. The system automatically selects the second bus system when the first
one fails. The defective module may then be located and replaced during
operation.

The figure below shows the basic structure of such a FUM module:

The connections to the analog and binary sensors on field level, and to the power
section of switching and actuating elements (switchgear), are established via the
function related part.

If necessary, manual intervention from conventional control locations (CCR) may


be performed via modules of the individual control level. In this case the
information is output via conventional indicators and signaling fields.

Besides various monitoring and diagnosis functions, the individual control levels
also acquires signal transitions of binary and/or the change of analog signal by
selectable value. The system adds a time stamp of 1ms resolution, and handles
these events as data with time (DMZ).

Connecting the ET 200M stations

The ET 200M stations connect to the AP via the IM 308-C and IM 153 interface
modules. A SINEC L2-DP bus chain with up to thirty two (32) IM 153 (ET 200M
stations) modules may be connected to each IM 308 (bus master) in the central
unit (CU) or expansion unit (EU). Up to ten IM 308 modules (10 chains) may be
connected to each AP. The total number of ET 200M stations is limited to 32.
The following maximum distances to the AP may not be exceeded in a
distributed structure.
3
Maximum length of a chain (L2-DP bus length):

- With copper conductor at a baud rate of 1,500 bits/s 200 meters


- With glass optical leads 1,400 meters

There are 3 types of connections possible with ET200 stations:

Directly, un-switched

Here, the IM 308 interface modules are installed in the AP’s central
controller. If the AP fails, all chains directly connected to this AP including
the ET 200M stations concerned and the SIM modules installed there are
no longer available.

Switched

Here, the IM 308 modules are installed in the expansion unit of the
redundant AP. The chains are connected with the master AP. If the master
AP fails, the standby AP immediately takes over mastership, and the ET
200M chains communicate with the new master AP.

Redundant (beginning from release 6)

The IM 308-C interface modules are present once on each bus chain and
AP subsystem. The bus medium is redundant. The ET 200M stations have
2 bus medium connections. Unlike the switched option, the availability of
the redundant option will not be impaired if an IM 308-C or a bus medium
fails. A mixture of redundant and non-redundant bus chains in one AP is
possible.

Concise Description of the Signal Modules in ET200M

Input Modules for Binary Signals SIM 321


The following modules can be used:

To read in the binary signals, the function block FB70 (BINAUF) or FB72
(BINEIN) is called up in the AP for each channel. If form C contacts are
connected, the FB70 (BINAUF) is required in the AP for each form C contact
system. Each form C contact system occupies two input channels. The NO
contact is on the odd channel (e.g. K1, K3, ...). The channel no. of the form C
contact system is specified by the channel--no. of the odd channel (e.g. K1, K3,
...).

The modules can also be used for the DCM function blocks FB163
(MOTVENTR), FB164 (STELANTR) and FB165 (REGELANR).

No provisions have been made for the installation of AC 120V modules in TXP
cabinets.

The following connection diagrams of the digital input modules always refer to
individual contacts. The following figure shows the type of form C contact
circuitry.

Connecting Current Sensors as 2-Wire and 4-Wire Transducers


The 2-wire transducer receives its short-circuit-proof power supply via the analog
input. This transducer then converts the measured variable into a current. Four-
wire transducers have separate power supplies.

Two-wire transducers must be isolated sensors.

Fig. 9 shows you how to connect current sensors as 2-wire transducers to an


isolated analog input module.

Fig. 11 shows you how to connect resistance-type thermometers to an isolated


analog input module.

Fig. 11: Connecting resistance-type thermometers to an isolated analog input module

Thermocouples

If you connect thermocouples direct to the inputs of the module or via


compensating leads, you can use internal temperature compensation. Each
channel group can use a thermocouple type supported by the analog module
independently of the other channel groups.

Fig. 12: Connection of thermocouples with internal compensation to an isolated analog input module

When you input signals from 4-wire transducers, thermocouples or resistance--


type thermometers, the not used inputs of the respective channel group must be
short-circuited and connected to the MANA terminal. If not used, the Comp input
must be jumpered.

Not used analog inputs should be deactivated via parameterization. This


shortens the cycle time of the module.

2-wire transducers need the connection of MANA to M. Not used channels need
no connection because of the existing shunt to MANA.

SIMATIC H1 Plant Bus

Access Mechanism

All busses in TXP use the Carrier Sense Multiple Access Collision Detection
(CSMA/CD) access mechanism. Both the electrical and optical versions of the
Industrial Ethernet CSMA/CD bus are based on the baseband transmission
procedure whereby the information to be transferred is directly superimposed
onto the transmission medium, which means no high-frequency carrier signal
modulation is used. The CSMA/CD access mechanism allows one transmission
channel to be shared by all connected stations.

The CSMA/CD access mechanism is described in the Ethernet specification


IEEE 802.3 (1st edition 1985) and its extension (2nd edition 1989). This
internationally used standard initially only covered electrical coaxial CSMA/CD
busses. Then CSMA/CD busses with new transmission media such as Fiber
Optic and twisted-pair cabling were developed and used.
5
The bus components required are based on the extended IEEE 802.3 standard
and allow different types of CSMA/CD busses to be used.

The SIMATIC NET Industrial Ethernet is based on the Open System


Interconnection (OSI) reference model of the International Standardization
Organization (ISO). Figure 1 illustrates the 7 layers of the OSI model:

TXP-HW Course

In the SIMATIC NET Industrial Ethernet the layers 1 (physical layer) and 2a
(media access control) conform to the IEEE 802.3 standard. These layers specify
the physical features of the transmission medium and the access mechanism of
the stations to the transmission medium.

Carrier Sense and Multiple Access

On a CSMA/CD bus, all nodes connected to the bus check, or sense, what is
being sent on the bus. Each node at any time has the right to access the
transmission medium provided that the bus is not being used by another node. In
other words, “listen while talking”.

Carrier Sense
Every node checks the bus for a carrier. Transmission is only attempted if
the transmission medium is not being used by another node.

Multiple Access
Each node controls its own bus access independent of other nodes.

As soon as a node starts transmitting data on the bus the transmission medium
is blocked for all other nodes. The nodes sense the data on the bus and are able
to receive but cannot send data themselves.

If a station wants to send data while data is being transmitted by another station
it waits until the packet currently being sent has been received. After a GAP time
of 9.6 microseconds it can start sending data. Figure 2 depicts Carrier Sense:

Fig. 2: Carrier Sense

TXP-HW Course

Collision Detection

If several nodes are waiting to send data packets on the bus the possibility exists
that two or more stations transmit their data simultaneously to the transmission
medium since they found the medium to be available at approximately the same
time.

As the data packets of these nodes are sent simultaneously a so-called collision
occurs on the transmission medium. The colliding data packets are destroyed
and lost. Once a transmitting node detects a collision, it stops sending data
immediately. Data packets that were lost must be re-transmitted after a collision.
Figure 3 illustrates collision detection:

Fig. 3: Collision Detection

The node that first detects the collision sends a jam signal, which makes it easy
for other stations to also detect the collision, and then stops its own transmission
procedure.

A node must still be transmitting data in order to be able to detect a collision


with its own signal. IEEE 802.3 defines a maximum propagation time of 25.6 µs
for a signal to travel from one end of the bus to the other and back. In order to
allow the sender to detect a collision with a signal from a node which is the
maximum permissible distance away, the minimum transmission time must be
51.2 µs (= twice the single-direction signal propagation time).

TXP-HW Course

Data traffic between two stations can also include data packets that would be
too short to fill the minimum transmission time, such as, acknowledge packets.
These packets would be supplemented up to the required minimum length of 64
bytes:

(64 bytes = (512 bits x 100ns) =51.2 µs)

This procedure is called padding.

Fig. 4: Collision after the maximum propagation time

Retransmission after a collision

In order to prevent all nodes waiting to transmit data from sending data at the
same time after a collision the stations delay retransmission for some random
length of time within a specific time interval.

The maximum number of retransmission attempts is 16. After the waiting period
the nodes attempt to transfer the data again. The node with the shortest waiting
period is the first to transfer while the others retry after different waiting periods.

After the 16th collision, no further retransmission attempt is made and a signal is
issued to the next higher protocol layer.

The CSMA/CD access mechanism for access to the transmission medium is


always the same no matter whether the bus uses electrical, optical or mixed
cabling. The only differences between these busses are the physical
representation of the data signals on the transmission medium as electrical or
light signals and the transmission media and bus components used.

Communication Protocols for the Plant Bus

Communication on the plant bus is based on the ISO/OSI 7-layer model for open
communication. The layer model is a widely used and accepted architectural
scheme that allows communication in a varied device environment. The layers
result from the specification and grouping of the different communication
functions, each of which plays an important role in implementing communication.
Each layer serves the layer above and uses the services of the layer below, if
they exist.

Communication protocols describe the rules, structures and procedures that


have to be applied during communication among bus participants. They are
specified in binding documents, such as ISO, IEEE, and ANSI, or widely used
standards, such as, RFCs of the Department Of Defense.

In order for two bus participants to be able to intercommunicate the


corresponding protocol stack must be implemented and the protocol parameters
to be used must be specified (the OSI layers used, addresses, number and type
of connections, data lengths, etc.). Figure 5 is a graphical representation of the
OSI 7-layer model:

Star Couplers

In TXP, star couplers are the center of the Industrial Ethernet bus. The various
transmission media are coupled to the star couplers via plug-in type interface
cards. The figure below shows a typical Fiber Optics Industrial Ethernet bus with
star couplers:

Fig. 12: Industrial Ethernet bus with star couplers

TXP uses several types of star couplers: undivided AC, divided AC, undivided
24V DC, and divided 24V DC. Of course, the undivided types are used where
there is no redundancy requirements and the divided types for redundant
configurations.

Each type of star coupler comes with two power packs:

• The power packs of all star couplers operate with shared load
• Each power pack is able to provide the star coupler with power if the other
power pack fails
• All power packs can be removed and inserted under voltage (hot swapping).

For availability reasons, the redundant voltage supplies to the star couplers must
be connected to separate supply voltages.

The figure below shows the front and rear views of a 24V DC divided star
coupler, which contains two star couplers each provided with a plug-in power
pack on the left-hand side. Both power packs operate with shared load and they
both have a green LED to indicate power ON.

- Power packs:
The power packs can only be plugged into the provided plug-in slots

- Interface cards:
The plug-in slots for the various types of interface cards are freely
selectable.

- Management cards or supervisory modules:

Each star coupler provides a specific plug-in slot (the divided star coupler
provides two) for the insertion of a management card or supervisory
module. If no management card/supervisory module is required the plug-
in slot can also be used to plug in an interface card.

The power packs, interface cards, management cards and supervisory modules
can also be inserted and removed during operation while the star coupler is
under voltage.

Two star couplers are always connected via a Fiber Optic path. Each star coupler
must contain an optical interface card for this path. The following optical
interface cards are available:
• OYDE-S....
• ECFL2
• ECFL4

Virtual Ring Theory

The single-fault tolerance implemented in the TXP bus system is based on the
virtual ring principle whereby the star couplers are connected to a ring via FO
paths. At one point in this ring the FO connection between two star couplers is
operated in the redundant mode. During fault-free operation this path is open
and thus provides the line topology required for operating a CSMA/CD bus. All
the other paths are normal FO paths and are not redundant.

The redundant mode of a FO path can be implemented using various interface


cards. Figure 15 shows the virtual ring concept during normal operation:

The monitoring logic on the interface card, whose port is set in the redundant
mode, monitors the virtual-ring for interruptions. The redundant path that had
been open up to the time the interruption occurred is then closed and
communication is possible in both directions to the location of the interruption.

Practical set-up

The redundant FO path is selected during the planning phase and implemented
during setup. The required settings on the pair of interface cards, which

Compact star couplers OLM ( Optical Link Module )

As far as availability and transmission reliability are concerned, the OLMs have
the same features as star couplers:

• Use of redundant optical paths

• 2 separate feed-ins for the voltage supply

• Diagnosis via LEDs

• Alarm contact for fault signaling ( same as the supervisory module


HSSM for star couplers )

Interfaces:

• Two optical ports for connection to other modules (analogous to


the star coupler)

• Three industrial twisted-pair ports (ITP) to connect terminating


devices

The optical ports can be used for the interconnection of several OLMs to form a
redundant optical ring, or OLMs can be incorporated into an existing redundant
optical ring containing star couplers.

The industrial twisted-pair ports are used to connect, via ITP cable, up to three
terminating devices which have an ITP port, or terminating devices which have
an AUI interface and twisted-pair transceiver TPTR.

Optical Switch Modules (OSM) and Electrical Switch Modules (ESM)

The Optical Switch Modules(OSM) and the Electrical Switch Modules (ESM)
permit switched networks with speed upto 100 Mbit/s. By segmentation the load
in existing network can be separated which increases performance. Redundancy
is incorporated in the OSM and ESM modules, enabling the design of redundant
Industrial Ethernet ring structures.

The design of an optical ring requires OSMs with 2 FO ports. ESM’s also permit
the design of rings with copper cables (ITP standard cable). These electrical
rings are designed with 2 twisted-pair ports. The data rate in the ring is 100
Mbit/s and up to 50 OSMs or ESMs per ring may be used. In addition to the 2-
ring ports, the OSM and ESM have 6 more ports to which terminal devices and
network segments can be connected. These ports are available either as 6x ITP
or 6x RJ45 interface.
5
As with the star couplers (HSSM) monitoring of the modules can be done via a
signaling contact and interrogation via the DS670 is also permitted, as with the
Mike card. Furthermore, OSM and ESM are prepared for the integration in
network management systems on the basis of SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) and web-based management.

Fast Ethernet

The benefit of Fast Ethernet is that it has all the features of the classic Ethernet
standard with a data rate increased by a factor of 10 to 100Mbps. The data
format, the CSMA/CD protocol and the glass fiber-optic cables and cat 5 twisted
pair cables are identical in both systems, but if you wish to utilize the full potential
of high speed performance with glass fiber link switched technology must be
used.

The table below shows typical properties for a 6 port ITP OSM, which would
utilize the 2 FO ports to make a redundant ring connection.

Properties of the OSM ITP62


Electrical ports 6 x 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation ports
with ITP connection (sub-D 9 pin
female)
Optical Ports 2 x 100 Mpbs FO ports (full duplex)
BFOC female connector
Maximum distance between two OSM’s 3000m (multimode graded-index fiber)
Maximum ring span with 50 OSM’s 150 km

Switching Method

Switching Increases the Transmission Capacity and Span of a Network

The limited capacity due to the baseband transmission method and the limited
span due to the CSMA/CD protocol means that an Ethernet network in a large
plant with a large volume of traffic often reaches its limitation, we call this the
“meltdown point”. Using switching technology, network’s limits can be extended
considerably.

Basics of switching.

Networks operating at the physical layer such as star couplers, OLM’s and ESM’s
pass on received data transparently. This means that all data received at a port
are output again to all other ports regardless of the content. This obviously slows
down the network and is less efficient. Network components with a switching
function froward data from sender to receiver directly based on the source and
destination address information.

TXP-HW Course

Address Filtering

By analyzing the data traffic, a switch automatically learns which Data Terminal
Equipment (DTE) is obtainable by checking its ports, this method is known as
“tech-in-mode”. To enable it to carry out this function it enters the destination
address in an address table which is maintained for each port. Therefore only
data entered for DTE’s in other subnets are switched from the input port to the
appropriate output port of the switch. The switch is capable of handling several
such data flows at the same time provided they do not have the same port as
their destination.

Filtering of the data traffic based on the source and destination address, means
that data will only be transmitted on the path on which they will reach the
receiver. This means that the entire network is used for more efficiently.

As well as having the ability to learn address’s that are attached to the OSM/ESM
it also has the capability of monitoring the age of the addresses it has learnt.
5
Address entries that exceed a certain age (aging time on the OSM/ESM is 40
seconds) are deleted. If a packet is received by an OSM/ESM for which there is
no address entry, the OSM/ESM will distribute it to all ports.

Redundant Ring Structure

As with star couplers and OLM’s a redundant ring structure can be implemented
with the OSM/ESM. Like the star coupler a redundant path is configured in the
system, but in OSM’s and ESM’s it is known as a redundancy manager (RM). So
with the aid of one OSM functioning as the RM, both ends of an optical bus made
up of OSM’s are connected together using the ports 7 and 8.

The RM monitors the OSM bus connected to it, close the bus if it detects an
interruption and therefore reestablishes a functioning bus configuration. A
maximum of 50 OSM’s are permitted in an optical ring. This allows a
reconfiguration time of less than 0.3s to be achieved. The RM mode is activated
on the OSM by a DIP switch which is located on the upper casing of the OSM
module. The DIP switch is titled RM and has a selection for ON or OFF.

From the above example you can see that one OSM has been designated the
redundant manger (RM). Under normal operation the information will be routed
via the shortest path from sender to reciever. If however the normal route were
disrupted the OSM in RM mode will detect the distirbance and will dynamically
re-route the information. An example of this is shown on the next page.

The OSM/ESM is the operating in the redundancy manager
Lit mode. The ring is operating free of errors, in other words
the redundancy manager does not allow traffic through but
monitors the ring.

Note: One OSM must operate in the redundancy manager


mode (and only one) in each OSM/ESM ring.
Not lit The OSM/ESM is not in the redundancy manager mode

Terminal Bus

TXP separates communications tasks between two busses: terminal bus and
plant bus. The previous chapter described the tasks of the plant bus. This
chapter will cover the tasks of the terminal bus. The figure below shows the
components within TXP that are attached to the terminal bus:

Fig. 1: Terminal bus and Plant bus components

The OM 650 components that are attached to the terminal bus are Operating
Terminals (OT), Processing Units (PU), and Server Units (SU). The ES
(engineering system) and DS (diagnostic system) are also connected to the
terminal bus.

Like the plant bus, the terminal bus at the hardware level is an Ethernet bus
using the same access mechanism as the plant bus: CSMA/CD. The protocols
used at the terminal bus level come from the TCP/IP suite of protocols.
Therefore, the terminal bus is the same type of bus that is commonly used in
office networks and The Internet.

TCP/IP Basics

In the 1960’s, the United States government agency DARPA (Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency) funded research on how to connect computers in
order to exchange data among them. The purpose of this research was to build
command and control functions in case of a nuclear “incident.”

TXP-HW Course

The idea was to be able to move data across the network even if parts of the
network became disrupted. For example, if a network link were taken out by
enemy attack, the traffic on that link would automatically be rerouted to a different
link. This reliable scheme is called dynamic rerouting and is useful to modern day
networks that aren’t affected by nuclear attacks, such as, if a network link is cut
in a power plant the data is still able to reach it’s destination via a different route.

Several California Universities did additional research while a Massachusetts firm


built the first test network, called ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects
Agency NETwork), which connected academic and military research centers.

In the mid 1970s, the network had grown enough that DARPA began to
investigate the possibility of building and connecting additional networks. The
need for more network capacity drove research into technologies such as
Ethernet and token ring, as well as satellite and radio communications.

As ARPANET grew larger and larger it became increasingly harder to manage,


so it was split into two separate networks called MILNET (for military
installations) and a new ARPANET for civilian sites. Since both networks still
needed to be connected the Internet Protocol connected the two by routing traffic
from one network to the other.

DARPA funded the development of a whole set of protocols for communication


on the ARPANET, which is now known as the suite of protocols named for two of
it’s parts: TCP/IP, which stands for Transmission Control Protocol / Internet
Protocol. The protocols were designed to support multiple connected networks.
Even though there were only two networks to begin with, IP was from the
beginning capable of connecting thousands of networks. This capability is one of
the reasons TCP/IP is still so popular today.

When the UNIX operating system was being developed at the University of
California at Berkeley, they added TCP/IP into their software distribution kit,
which spawned a rapid growth spurt of TCP/IP, especially in academic
environments. In the early 1980s, the Secretary of Defense mandated that all
computers connected to the ARPANET had to use TCP/IP.

Because of a technical limitation, the ARPANET was limited to 256 computers


and as a result several other networks sprouted up to handle the traffic:
• CSNET, the Computer Science Network
• HEPNET, the High Energy Physics Network
• NSFNET, the National Science Foundation Network
• JNET, the Japanese Computer Network

All of these networks were, and are today, interconnected by means of the
TCP/IP protocol suite.

One of the biggest strengths of TCP/IP is that it is independent of all the available
alternatives. Following is a list of advantages:
• It’s independent of the network topology (ring, star, etc.)
• It’s independent of the transmission medium (wire, satellite, etc.)
• It’s independent of specific vendors
• It’s independent of the operating system and computer hardware (UNIX,
Windows NT, etc.)

TCP/IP ties networks and The Internet together, regardless of the hardware and
software used to build those networks. It is commonly thought that TCP/IP is only
for linking UNIX computers because it has been included in UNIX for so long, but
this is not true. TCP/IP runs on and connects just about everything. There are
other network protocols, such as IBM’s and Novell’s, but no protocol connects as
many different hardware and software platforms as TCP/IP.

The Protocols of TCP/IP

The protocols of TCP/IP stack up in layers, also, similar to the OSI Reference
Model, but TCP/IP has fewer layers. The table below lists the layers associated
with TCP/IP and the protocols that are used in each layer:
6
TCP/IP layer OSI layer TCP/IP Protocols
- Physical -
- Data link -
Internet Internet IP, IPNG, ICMP, ARP, RARP
Transport Transport TCP, UDP
Application Session, Presentation, RPC, SMTP, FTP, TFTP
Application

The physical and data link layers are not directly related to TCP/IP because it is
software that is independent of the underlying hardware. The internet and
transport layers are analogous to the OSI’s same layers. The application layer
combines the session, presentation, and application layers of the OSI model.

IPNG – Internet Protocol Next Generation
ICMP – Internet Control Message Protocol
ARP – Address Resolution Protocol

TXP-HW Course

The ISO / OSI seven layer model

Following is a brief description of each layer:

Layer 1: The physical layer

This layer is pure hardware, including cable, satellite, or other connection


medium, and the network interface card. This is where electrical signals
move around on the network.

Layer 2: The data link layer

This is another layer where hardware is involved. This is the layer that
splits data into packets to be sent across the connection medium. Ethernet
or token ring wiring gets handled at this layer. Once the data is on the
wire, the data link layer handles any interference by not allowing the data
to become garbled.

Layer 3: The network layer

This is the first place on the OSI model where a TCP/IP protocol fits into
the equation. IP is the TCP/IP protocol that works at this layer. This layer
gets packets from the data link layer and sends them to the correct
network address. If more than one possible route is available for your data
to travel, the network layer figures out the best route. Without this layer,
the data would never get to the right place.

Layer 4: The transport layer

Though the network layer routes data to its destination, it cannot


guarantee that the packets holding the data will arrive in the correct order
or that they won’t have picked up any errors during transmission. That’s
the transport layer’s job. TCP is one of the TCP/IP protocols that work at
the transport layer; UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is another one. The
transport layer makes sure that the packets have no errors and that all the
packets arrive and are in the correct order. Without this layer, the network
could not be trusted.

Layer 5: The session layer

The other protocols that make up TCP/IP sit here on Layer 5 and above.
This layer establishes and coordinates a session, which is the name for a
connection between two computers. Before two computers can move data
between them a session must be established.

Layer 6: The presentation layer

The presentation layer works with the operating system and file system.
Here’s where files get converted from one format to another, if the
participants use different formats. Without the presentation layer, file
transfer would be restricted to computers with the same file format.

Layer 7: The application layer

This is the layer where our work is done, such as requesting to transfer a
file across the network. Without the application layer, no data to be sent or
messages could be created and the computer wouldn’t know what to do
with any data that gets sent to it.

Terminal Bus Communications Processors

The TXP components that connect to the terminal bus are the ES 680
engineering system, the OM 650 SU server unit, the OM 650 PU processor unit,
the OM 650 OT operating terminal, and the DS 670 diagnostics system. The
communications processors used in these components are 3COM Etherlink III
cards. It is a standard “off-the-shelf” Network Interface Card (NIC) that plugs into
an ISA slot on the motherboard of all the PCs. In the case of the ES 680 it is built
into the motherboard. The figure below shows the 3COM Etherlink III card:

Data Exchange between TXP nodes over the Terminal Bus

As seen in figure 1 on page 1, all components of TXP are connected to the


terminal bus with the exception of the automation systems. There are several
communication paths over the terminal bus between the TXP nodes. Following is
a brief summary of those communication paths.

ES <-> SU

The ES is used to engineer all data for the DCS. When building up the logic for
the automation systems, there are many signal definitions created. These signal
definitions, or point descriptions, are gathered in a central database that is called
the BDM database. This database, after compilation, needs to be transferred
from the ES to the SU where it permanently resides. The terminal bus connection
between the ES and SU is used for this transfer.

ES <-> PU

All the alarm handling and any calculation logic are built up on the ES. After
compilation, this data needs to be transferred to the PU. The terminal bus
connection between the ES and PU is used for this transfer. 6

ES <-> OT

All graphics that are created on the ES, after compilation, need to be transferred
to the OTs. The terminal bus connection between the ES and OT is used for this
transfer.

ES <-> DS

The terminal bus connection between the ES and DS is used by the DS to


extract the engineering data it needs to build up its graphics for diagnosing the
entire DCS from the DS terminal.

There are no dynamic connections between the ES and other terminal bus
participants. It is only used to transfer data from the ES to the other participants.

TXP-HW Course

OT <-> SU

Whenever a graphic is called up on an OT screen, any text descriptions that are


attached to a tag are extracted from the BDM database on the SU.

Whenever a trend screen is called up on an OT screen, the dynamic data


contained in the trend is extracted from the Long Term Archive on the SU.

Whenever a log is built on the OT the data is extracted from the Long Term
Archive residing on the SU.

All of this data exchange is done over the terminal bus.

OT <-> PU

All TTDs, or events, in TXP are transferred from the automation systems they
were generated in to the PU assigned to that particular AS. When a graphic is
called up on an OT screen, all the dynamic data that appears on the screen
comes from this gathering of events in the PU via the terminal bus connection.

All alarm-handling functions are handled by the PU via function blocks for the
particular automation systems that contain the alarms. These alarms are shown
to the operator via the terminal bus connection between the OT and PU.

DS <-> PU, SU, OT

The DS extracts all diagnostic data from buffers in the PU, SU, and OT and
builds up its graphic displays using the terminal bus connection.

Reading I&C Drawings


Introduction

Siemens Westinghouse will typically supply drawings as part of the project


deliverables. The drawings incorporate terminology and symbology that may be
unfamiliar to some users. This section will provide the student with some
information on how to read and understand these drawings.

KKS

Unless specified differently by the customer, all Siemens Westinghouse drawings


and documentation will incorporate the Kraftwerk KennzeichenSystem (KKS)
which is German for “Power Plant Identification System”. KKS tags are used to
represent drawings, equipment, and locations.

Pictured below is a typical description of a KKS drawing (Figure 1).

Figure 1. KKS Designation of Power Plant Drawing

KKS Designation of Equipment Mounting Location

In Figure 2 an example of a KKS structure for identification of mounting location


is shown. The prefix "+" is used to represent mounting location information. The
"." between CJP02 and DC015 is used to identify that DC015 is a module
location within the cabinet CJP02. This identifier is used in the I&C manuals.

Figure 2 shows the overall structure of the KKS mounting location, but in most
cases the numbers used within the drawings are abbreviated in some form or
another. The following list provides some other examples of mounting locations
that are commonly used in the I&C manuals:

+CJP02 This type of number is normally used to identify the cabinet. It can
be found in the drawing title block or on the drawing itself. The
prefix "+” in this case represents the unit number in which this
drawing pertains.

+.DC015 This type of number is used to identify a module. The prefix "+” in
this case represents both the Unit and the cabinet number. The
cabinet number in these cases can be found in the title block of the
drawing.

+.XD007 This type of number is used to identify a Termi-point connection.


Below this number the letters A to H would be listed to show
connection points for the individual signal. The prefix "+" in this
case represents both the Unit and the cabinet number in which the
termi-point is physically located. The cabinet number in these cases
can be found in the title block of the drawing.

Types of Drawings

A typical TXP installation should come with (but not limited to) the following
drawings:

· Cabinet Assembly

Cabinet Assembly Drawings

Cabinet assembly drawings typically show the cabinet profiles, location of equipment in
the cabinet, terminal block layout, and any special instructions required for the assembler
to build the cabinet.

Cabinets are typically organized in stations, sometimes referred to as racks or nests by


other vendors. A station may contain an I/O rack such as an ET200, or it may contain
equipment from another vendor. I/O stations generally have slots, where the individual
modules are installed.
Figure 3 is a typical drawing showing the cabinet and layout of the stations. Figure 4
depicts the individual stations in greater detail, indicating item number of parts and
individual module locations or slots.

Power Distribution Drawings

Power distribution drawings show the user how each individual module in the
station is powered. Power to cabinets can be distributed from a single cabinet or
distributed individually. The example in Figure 5 is a cabinet fed redundantly
from a single cabinet.

The first drawing in the set shows the feeds from the power distribution cabinet
wired into terminal blocks with a KKS label. Protection circuitry and alarms are
also shown on the drawing (Figure 5). Thereafter, there will be a drawing for
each individual station in the cabinet showing the power distribution wiring for
each SIM module and the field bus or L2 connection (Figure 6).

Wiring Diagrams or Elementaries

Wiring diagrams may be required to show (1) internal cabinet wiring and/or (2)
field-to-cabinet wiring, similar to an ISA loop sheet (Figure 7). These drawings
may also be generated from the TXP ES680 and are called MSR drawings.

Bus Connection Drawing

Bus connection drawings show the L2 or Profibus connections required for each
station from end to end. These should correspond to the L2 bus label shown on
the power distribution drawings. Figure 8 is an example of a typical bus
connection drawing.

A check on the previously generated code will now be carried out, if the code is
suitable for transfer you will be prompted, as shown below, to confirm that you
really wish to load code to the AP offline.

Click on Yes to begin the loading of code offline to the selected AP. The ES680
will attempt to connect to the AP. An error message at this point will indicate that
an AP reset is required and then the transfer will need to be reattempted. Up to
three overall reset and general reset combinations may be required before the
AP is ready to accept the code, even if the indicating lights on the AP show a
running condition.

At this point the offline handler will take control of the AP and place it in stop.
First it will down load code to the master (A) then it will update the slave (B) CPU.
When the process is complete a pop-up window will appear stating that the down
load is complete. You will need to acknowledge this message by clicking on the
close button in the pop-up window.

Interface Module for PROFIBUS--DP (Optical Network Component)

If more than one station (up to 8) is involved, the PROFIBUS--DP bus system is
set up for example as a ring network. AP and ET 200 stations are connected via
Optical Link Modules (OLM) (see figure below). The OLM connects either to
copper core cables or to fiber--optic cables. IM 308--B/C modules and ET 200
stations are connected via copper core cables. Fiber--optic cables may be used
for the connections between the OLMs. These optical leads may be made from
plastic or glass. The maximum cable length is 1,400 me-ters for glass fiber--optic
and 25 meters for plastic leads (provided that the bus components are used that
are specified for PROFIBUS--DP (FO) in the IK 10 catalog /19/). Please refer to
the applicable documents /12/, /19/ for further information.

Power supply module 6ES5955 (for ZG/EG 155H)


Switch off the power supply before you remove or insert the module!

· In a redundant AP, replacement can be carried out while the AP is in operation.


This does not apply to single-channel couplings to SIM components (F SIM, B
SIM), ancillary plant systems and AS620 T (SIMADYN). In a non-redundant AP,
replacement leads to a failure of the AS functions.

· If the automation device (ZG or EG) has an IM 308 for coupling ET 200 stations,
the IM 308 must be switched to "STOP" prior to switching off the power supply!
Otherwise outputs on the ET 200 might stay set thus leading to hazardous plant
statuses! After switching on the power supply the IM 308 must be switched back
to "RUN"

Replace the module as follows:

· Switch off the voltage supply to that half of the sub-rack containing the defective
voltage supply module (make sure you switch off the correct miniature circuit
breaker!). Provide all cables connected to the front-panel connections with labels
or refer to the TELEPERM XP AS 620 system manual 6DP6200-1DA01, section
10 "Setting up, Installation" for the wiring

· Loosen the cables. Rotate the lower screw by 90° to unlatch the module and pull
the lug to remove the module from the central device

· Set the configuration switch located at the right-hand side of the power supply
module to the desired position on the new module. The meaning of the switch
positions is shown in the Figure on the next page

· Push the Lithium batteries in observing correct polarity

· Plug the new module into the plug-in slot of the defective module and properly
connect all cables to the front-panel connections according to your labels or as
described in the TELEPERM XP AS 620 system manual 6DP6200-1DA01,
register 10 "Setting up, Installation"

· Switch on the voltage supply of the central device (indicated on the CPU 948 by
the red "Stop" LED flashing and the red "BASP" LED steady lit

· Carry out a general reset on the CPU: Keep the "reset" switch in the "reset"
position while changing the operating mode switch from "RUN" to "STOP" and
back to "RUN" again

Maintenance of OM 650 and ES 680 Components

As discussed in earlier chapters all OM 650 components and the ES 680 are
computer-based components. Depending on the environment the computers are
in, dust can accumulate on the internal components of the computer. Periodic
removal of this dust should be a part of the preventive maintenance plan.

Documentation of the I&C system computers in a plant forms an integral part of


the I&C system maintenance. However, the computer hardware and software are
subject to upgrading and updating. All hardware and software changes must be
documented.
Siemens Westinghouse recommends that a profile of each TXP computer is kept
describing the status of the current equipment of the computers (see below).

data:

OM 650 (SU, PU, OT, CU) Hard Drive Backup

Boot and root diskettes of SCO version 5 are available from the AC which allow
you to save or restore the entire hard disk content of a PC including version 3.

Note: The SCSI-ID 2 must be set before POWER ON of the external drive if it can be set at the
external DAT drive!
Due to the initializing procedure on the SCSI bus it may occur that the call-up is rejected up to
twice when addressing the DAT drive and a HW fault alarm is output! If the hardware is intact
the third attempt normally is successful.

Requirements:

· OM component with a DAT drive (DAT tape 120m)


(internal DAT or external DAT with SCSI address 2)
· Ensure that the OM component is shut down and switched off

Troubleshooting of OM 650 components

Each OM computer has an extensive collection of software troubleshooting tools


installed on them. All of these tools can be found under the login txpom in the
search path. Following is a few of the most commonly used tools that are used to
locate communications problems within the OM system:

PL – Indicating the Status of the OM Components and OM Managers

Syntax

PL [-t] [-1]

DESCRIPTION

The current statuses held by the infrastructure are indicated for the OM
components and the object managers. The indication is from the view of the local
OM component, i.e. the OM component on which PL has been invoked.

If option -1 is not provided, the representation is updated in a 6-seconds cycle.


To deselect cyclic output press the Del key

If option –t is selected the time synchronization status is displayed as shown in


the example below:

w01cu1 SyncState: OK
StLTK OmKomp Time StOMK MMI ASR MAC ARC BDM LZA NTB PRT
akt w01cu1 okay fue fue fue fue fue fue fue fue fue

In this example, w01cu1 is the hostname of the OM component. The Time


column indicates that the time synchronization is okay. The fue status of the
individual object managers denotes that all are running properly. If all object 10
managers are not fue please contact the HOTLINE for assistance.

pas – indicates starting


anf – indicates initialization
fue – indicates running Master
akt – indicates active standby
abg – indicates not working

rdb – Reading out the AS620B Component Status

Syntax
rdb

DESCRIPTION

For basic troubleshooting of AS communication problems, only use function 3


without checking with the HOTLINE first. Although the other functions are not
blocked they should only be used by HOTLINE personnel.

FUNCTION 3: This function is used to indicate the status of the


communication connections to the AS620B at a point in time

Example of function 3:

TXP system comprising four AS620B components in total: AS1 AS2 AS3 AS4.
The AS2 component is not available.

rdb <RETURN>
3 Function 3
3 3-second cycle
0 No storage in a file

Output:

AS Status TTD Anz. Update

01 08000008 0 0 0
02 f4000710 4628 1 589
03 ec000710 2904 0 6

The status word fc000710 indicates all communications with the associated AS
are functioning correctly. If the status word does not show fc000710 the
HOTLINE should be contacted for assistance.
