1 Introduction
1.1 Project description

The project consists in a 31.05 MWp solar PV power plant whose function is to supply electricity to the network.
The connection to national electricity system will be through the existing transmission line. The mount uses solar
trackers to follow the sun across the sky.

The plant is in Baja California Sur in Mexico.

1.2 Purpose

The purpose of this document is to provide the operator with all the info allowing him to drive the plant via the human
machine interface. It is describing the software configuration, operator tools and graphics.

2 General ovation configuration

Ovation communications principles

Ovation specific network equipment, like Ovation workstations and controllers are using multicast and broadcast
types of data transmission. This implies in same load of network during plant start-ups, shutdowns and normal
operation.

Every point record in Ovation system has a Broadcast frequency which is defined by EMR according to required
needs of value refresh rate.

Ovation interfacing

Following interface protocols will be implemented for this project

Interface protocol Application


SNMP Printers, Cisco switches
NTP Time synchronization of all Ovation equipment
OPC Data exchange with external equipment
ModBus TCP/IP Data exchange with external equipment

Apart of interfaces mentioned in above table, Ovation system can as well communicate with Third Party Systems
by standard hardwired connection.

Ovation Domain

All Ovation workstations are members of the Active Directory Domain. This means that all Windows and Operator
security settings will be managed by the Domain Controller. In addition, user accounts are general for whole network
(not local per each workstation).

For SDI solar PV project, the following Domain name will be applied:

• SDI.Ovation.ENGIE.local

Customer may advice on change of above setting.

Alarms
Base alarm system will be used according to features of Ovation System. Besides color alarm animations on graphic
diagrams a separate window for alarming will be available also (using Alarms application).

Ovation principles are that each point in the system can have a property of Alarm status. For Digital points (0/1)
“alarm on one”, “alarm on zero” or “change of state” alarms are available. For Analog points, up to four (4) high and
four (4) low alarm limits can be used.

For analog/digital points, following graphical alarm presentation will be used:

Analog value Digital value

Not all graphical alarm presentation displayed on process diagrams will be displayed in Alarm List application.

EMERSON will use Customer documentation to implement alarms on Alarms list.


Those settings will be adjusted during commissioning phase of the project.

For this project two (2) process alarm priorities are proposed to be used. Alarm priority 1 is the highest and alarm
priority 2 is the lowest. For one signal, only one alarm will be visible of highest priority.

Based on Customer decision, following translation of alarm priorities is proposed:

Alarm type Alarm Priority in Ovation


Fault Digital 1
Fault Analog 1
Alarm Digital 2
Alarm Analog 2

Alarm list integrated in Graphics will not be provided.

5 Glossary of terms

Alarm A message or other signal intended to draw attention to a non-normal plant


condition; for displays at user interfaces, an alarm reflects a point status.
Algorithm 1) A set of rules, procedures, and mathematical formulas that define a
desired control strategy.
2) Software provided with a Controller to automatically apply a specified
algorithm during the system scan.
3) Ovation record type (LC) used to store tuning or data configuration for an
algorithm in the system.
Analog 1) Conditions or values that continuously vary across some range,
represented by more than one bit.
2) A point that is an analog record type. Analog points are typically
associated with I/O hardware that converts a field signal (for example,
voltage) to a low-level signal used by the processor.
Broadcast Process of sending information across the Ovation network. Broadcasts
may be periodic (every second or every 0.1 of a second) or non-periodic
(broadcast on demand only).
Characteristics A set of 8 alphanumeric characters associated with a point, used to
represent user-defined aspects of the controlled process. Characteristics
are used in alarm processing and point review/search functions.
Control Builder Power tool package used to build control drawings and generate source
code from the drawings.
Control Sheet Drawing that contains a graphical representation of a control scheme.
Control Task Specific Controller area where all control sheets in that area are scanned at
the same frequency.
Controller A drop used to control a process. The Controller passes process control
information over the network to other drops or devices that need it.
Database A structured set of data, especially the Distributed database in each Ovation
drop (which defines originated and received points) and the Ovation Master
database (which defines the attributes of all points in the system).
DCS Distributed Control System (such as Ovation)
Deadband Range of values through which an input signal may vary without initiating an
action that causes an observable change in the output signal.
Destination 1) The location in memory (such as a holding register) into which data is
placed after the completion of certain programmable functions. (Contrast
with source.)
2) A method of determining which alarms are displayed at a specific user
interface drop, based on the first point characteristic (typically representing
the plant area).

message is safe to pass to the internal network.
Flash data Portion of an Ovation point record that is stored in the originating drop’s
flash (or disk) memory and copied to receiving drop’s periodically.
Frequency The measurement of the number of occurrences of a repeated event per
unit of time. For example, points are broadcast over the Ovation network at
different frequency rates:
(S)low = every 1 second
(F)ast = every 0.1 of a second
(A)periodic = as needed or user-defined
Fully qualified point Point name that specifically identifies a point by combining three
name parameters. Format is pointname.unit@network where point name contains
a maximum of 24 characters, unit contains a maximum of 6 characters, and
network contains a maximum of 8 characters. Should not be used when
inserting a new point in Developer Studio, only insert point name parameter.
Graphics Builder Power Tool used to create and edit System Process Diagrams that display
on the Operator Station.
Historian Dedicated drop in the Ovation system that collects and stores process point
data and other information.
HMI/MMI Human-Machine Interface/Man-Machine Interface. Refers to drops that
provide user interface functions between a user and a machine (such as the
Operator Station).
