Overview
The HR6000 DCA software is installed in GE Energy Services WESDAC equipment to provide an interface to Sub-Remote Units (SRUs) using the HR6000 communication protocol.

Product Perspective

The HR6000 DCA software is custom software that will be installed in the GE Energy Services RTU to act as a data concentrator for one or more Sub-Remote Units (SRUs) using the HR6000 communication protocol. After the system is installed, the RTU has the ability to function as a sub-master within a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system, which controls multiple SRU. Figure 1 represents a complete system overview of how the DCA interfaces with the WESDAC Interface Node (WIN) in a typical GE Energy Services RTU. The application is designed to communicate with SRUs via the HR6000 protocol. The HR6000 DCA receives data from the SRUs by polling for data in a master-slave relationship.

Chapter 1: Configuring Tables

The HR6000 DCA configuration contains all of the data structures necessary to configure a RTU to poll devices using the HR6000 protocol.

1.1

HR6000 DCA Configuration Tables

The purpose of each configuration Table 1 is described below.

TABLE NAME A020APPL DESCRIPTION The Main Application configuration table is used to define global settings for the entire HR6000 application. These parameters pertain to all channels and SRUs connected within the system. The Port Configuration table contains data related to the communication port set-up for each communication port used by the HR6000 DCA. The SRU configuration table contains data required to perform polling and control operation on the connected SRUs. The Data Port Configuration table contains data required to define the data ports used by each of the configured SRUs. The R/L configuration table contains timing parameters for each individual R/L point.

Configuration Sequence

The following is a list of the steps required to configure the HR6000 DCA: 1. Edit the HR6000 DCA configuration. Prepare it according to the guidelines in this document and the specific use for which the HR6000 DCA is required. 2. Edit the configuration for the other applications that will run on the product. Prepare them according to their own configuration guides. 3. Generate the configuration and download it to the product using a WESDAC Configuration System. The list of applications to be compiled must include the HR6000 DCA, application A020. 4. Restart the product. If the HR6000 DCA encounters an error during its initialization, it will log a message to the WESMAINT Error Log and then, depending on the severity of the error, terminate or continue with its run-time function. 5. Check for error messages. Log into the WESMAINT maintenance interface, select the SYSTEM FUNCTIONS item from the Main Menu, and then select the ERROR LOG item from the System Functions Menu. If any error messages are displayed, correct the problem as described in Appendix A: and repeat steps 3 through 5. When the HR6000 DCA has successfully validated all the configuration parameters, configuration is complete.

Chapter 2: Configuring the Main Application Table (A020APPL)

The Main Application configuration Table 2 is used to define global settings for the entire HR6000 DCA. These parameters pertain to all channels and SRUs connected within the system. The Main Application configuration must contain a single record. Table 2 Main Application Configuration Table Parameters
Name DCA Index Range Indexes CFG_DCA Description The indexed CFG_DCA table record must contain the WESDAC database point counts for this application. The CFG_DCA table configuration is described in the WIN Configuration chapter. When using Config Pro, the DCA Index is automatically configured and so may not be visible. This parameter defines an additional number of message buffers to allocate for this application in addition to the minimum number allocated automatically by the DCA. Increasing this number increases the amount of memory required to run the DCA. The total number of message buffers allocated by the HR6000 DCA will be: SOE Buffer Size 00 .. 65535 2 Per Port + Extra Message Buffers. A typical number of Extra Message Buffers is 0.

Extra Message Buffers

00 .. 65535

This parameter defines the size of the SOE buffer. Increasing this number increases the amount of memory required to run the DCA. A typical SOE Buffer Size is 80. This parameter defines where to store the SOE buffer. If the SOE buffer is in RAM, unreported SOEs will be lost during a restart. Typically SOEs are stored in NVRAM. This parameter defines which SOEs to keep if the SOE buffer overflows. This is typically set to Keep Newest. This parameter defines the maximum number of SOEs that may be reported before allowing the DCA to check for controls or send another data poll. A typical value is 30.

Chapter 7: Configuring Win for the HR6000 DCA

This chapter describes how to configure the WIN application to work with the HR6000 DCA. The WIN application allocates the WESDAC data points for all applications. In order to work properly the HR6000 DCA must have its own record within the WIN application's CFG_DCA table. This record is referenced by the DCA Offset specified in the Main Application configuration table. Additional information on configuring WIN can be found in the WIN Configuration Guide listed in the Additional Documentation section of this document.

7.1

WESDAC Point Allocation

The HR6000 DCA requires the following number of points. Additional points configured will be initialized, but will never come on-line or be used by the HR6000 DCA. Digital Inputs: Total number of Inputs configured for all C&I data ports plus 16 times the total number of Inputs configured for all 16-Bit Parallel Data ports in A020DATA. Digital Outputs: 11 + 1 Per Port + 7 Per SRU + Total number of Outputs configured for all C&I data ports plus 2 times the total number of Outputs configured for all R/L ports in A020DATA. Accumulators: Total number of Outputs configured for all Accumulator ports in A020DATA. Analog Inputs: Total number of Inputs configured for all A/D ports in A020DATA. Analog Outputs: Total number of Outputs configured for all Setpoint ports in A020DATA. Device Status: 1 Per configured SRU. For more information on the order of the configured points, refer to the HR6000 DCA Functional Specification listed in the Additional Documentation.

Appendix A:Messages Logged by the HR6000 DCA

This appendix contains a description of all error messages posted to the WESMAINT Error Log by the HR6000 DCA. This appendix also provides an explanation of all output return codes returned by the HR6000 DCA. During startup, the HR6000 DCA checks its configuration tables for invalid entries. If no configuration errors are encountered the DCA attempts to spawn a number of processes during start-up. If any invalid data is found or a problem is encountered while starting one of the processes, an error message is logged to the WESMAINT Error Log. Messages logged to the WESMAINT Error Log by the DCA will be pre-pended with a process name. This name will be one of the following: A020: A020-<x>-<yy>: Where <x> is one of E, C or S. <yy> is a process number. Expressions in angular brackets like "<xx>", are filled with the appropriate values by the DCA.

A.1
