Distributed Control System?
 What is Distributed Control System?

• Functionally and physically separate systems

connected with each other to share relevant
information for optimum plant control

• Failure of a processor or a network will not

result in failure of another processors or
networks of the system

 EC (Extended Controller)
The Extended Controller is a self-contained
controller that is physically and functionally
similar to the Basic Controller.

Major differences are:

• The Extended Controller has 16 slots that accept
both analog and digital inputs and produce both
analog and digital outputs
• The EC provides several more powerful
algorithms, including a Ramp/Soak Generator
and Logic algorithms
• Each EC slot is processed twice each second
 MC (Multifunction Controller)
The MC is a self-contained controller that controls
continuous and discontinuous operations.

• 16 regulatory control loops

• 16 sequence slots, each contain 1 sequence program
• The input/output-monitoring section of the Multifunction
Controller monitors analog, digital, and counter inputs and
outputs, and updates the database with the results.
• It also checks feedback on digital points, sets alarms, and
executes up to 128 logic blocks independent of logic in
sequence programs
• Peer-to-peer communication between up to 8 controllers is
possible through an optional communication link called the
C-Link.
AMC (Advanced Multifunction Controller)

• The Advanced Multifunction Controller is a self-

contained controller that is functionally similar to
the Multifunction Controller.
• It provides the same algorithms, logic, and
Control Language capabilities. Slot processing
occurs twice per second as compared to once
per second for the Multifunction Controller.
• Peer-to-peer communication through an optional
C-Link is also available.

 Application Module (AM)

• AM is one of the modules on the TPN (TPS Network).

• The AM can communicate with all modules on the TPN
and with the process connected devices on the
Universal Control Network and Data Hiway.
• The AM accepts inputs from and provide outputs to
multiple process-connected devices and TPN
modules.
• The AM can perform advanced calculations and
features a full complement of control algorithms that
allow your system to implement complex control
strategies.
• A single AM can handle many more data points than a
single process-connected module.

 HPM address setting
HPM has two settings
• HPM Address
• Card file address

Rules:
• For Address jumper added must be counted.
• Total number of jumpers added including
Parity must be a odd number.
Saving and Restoring HPM Information
• PROGRAM LOAD Loads the HPMM S/W personality
image from HM or Cartridge to the chosen UCN
device. The device must be in the Alive state.

• RESTORE DATA Restores the point data stored in

checkpoint volume (&8np) to the chosen UCN device.
The device must be in the Idle state.

• SAVE DATA Saves the point data present in the

selected HPMM and NIM into either the HM checkpoint
volume or removable media. This is sometimes called
“Checkpointing.”

 Taking HPM on line

• Select the HPM and select the LOAD/SAVE

RESTORE. This can be loaded from NET or
Alternate source. (wait till the UCNxx Busy disappears)
– Loads the HPMM S/W personality image from HM or Cartridge to the chosen
UCN device

• Select RUN STATUS and select STARTUP

and select COLD / WARM STARTUP
– Changes the HPM chosen and all the IOPs that have a valid database from
the Idle state to the OK state. The HPM will then begin processing data. The
command is executed by selecting the ENTER target.

• Bring the HPM to Full Control.
