1) PLC
2) DCS
3) PC - Based Control.

• PLC : Introduced in the late 1960 to replace Relays and Hard-wired
  Programming.
DCS : Introduced in the Mid-1970 to
replace pneumatic controls by using
computers.
• PC-Based Control : Introduced by the early 1980s to avoid the
  proprietary PLC & DCS systems.
DCS EVOLUTION
• LOCAL CONTROL : Initially control was performed local to the equipment
   control. The ADVANTAGE was low wiring costs .DISADVANTAGES were -
   not much control, monitoring, alarming & history.

• CENTRALISED CONTROL: With the advent of minicomputer, sensors and
   actuators were into the Central Control (Computer).

• DISTRIBUTED CONTROL: With the advent of microcomputer, Distributed
   control systems were installed in the plants near to the control room via
   proprietary digital communications lines called as Data Hiway. First DCS was
   developed by Honeywell,U.S in 1975.
          The ADVANTAGES were greatly reduced wiring costs, much more limited
    failure and less cost to add more points.
          The DISADVANTAGES were that wiring costs were that wiring costs
   were still significant and there was lack of interoperability among controllers of
   various manufacturers due to the proprietary protocols. Hence the user was
   locked into a single vendor.

DCS
• The importance of DCS systems to increase as global competitive
    dynamics in food and beverage, specialty metals, pulp and paper,
    pharmaceutical and fire chemical processing.
•   The DCS has networking capabilities which are useful for business
    management.
•   The DCS has capacity for processing large number of I/O points.

                         TYPES OF DCS :
1) Conventional DCS .
2) PLC based DCS.
3) Hybrid DCS.
4) Open DCS System
CONVENTIONAL DCS
  This is a pure “Process only” control system. Usually purchased from
  one vendor. This DCS arranged into three categories:
• Small - Less than $ 100,000.
• Medium - Greater than $100,000 & Less than $500,000.
• Large - Greater than $500,000.
PLC Based DCS.
       This is a network of PLC’s used to perform the task of
  conventional DCS and programmable functionality when required.


Hybrid DCS.
       Performs both process and sequential control.

Open DCS System.
            This is Field-Bus Control. Advantages are lower wiring cost and
  less failure, smaller expansion costs and multi vendor interoperability
  DCS and PLC can be more closely and efficiently interconnected.

History Modules
      The History Modules is the bulk module that can be utilized by all module
     connected
 to the Local Control Network. It is as the name implies the mass memory of the
     TPS
 System. The memory components of this module are one 1.8 gigabyte
     Winchester discs.
 It is controlled by an M68040 microprocessor. This provides the module with
     significant
 computing power that this used to structure much of the incoming data and
     format it into
 a form for easy retrieval.
         The history in the model is provided by the History Module. Process
     variables are
 available for hourly, shift, daily and monthly average calculation and recording.
        All system event history such as process alarms, system status changes,
     and error
 messages are stored into the History Modules.
        Other modules have access to data in the History Modules for their
     functions.
The History Module provides two functions, storage only and data structuring
HM functions and Historization parameter
 HM functions :
         It can automatically backup the control databases in the HG, AM, CG.
 HM can store,
• Continuous process history.
• Event journal (history).
• Active system files.
• Static system files.
• On process analysis program (maintenance aid)

HM Historization parameters :
   There can be up to 10 HM’s on the LCN. There can be maximum of 150
   groups per
 HM. Each group can have up to 20 points. All points in the group must be in the
   same
 unit.
Network Interface Module (NIM)




 The Network Interface Module (NIM) provides the link between the local Control
Network and the Universal Control Network. As such it make the transition from
   the
transmission technique and protocol or the Local Control Network to the
   transmission
technique and the protocol of the Universal Control Network. The NIM provides
   access
by LCN modules data from UCN resident devices. The NIM is available in the
   redundant
configuration to provide continued operation in the event of the primary failure. It
   can
also do event processing.
       There can be up to 10 redundant NIM pairs per LCN. A NIM can host upto
   8000 tag
names and supports a data transfer rate of 2400 parameters per second.
Communication Subsystem

                               Local Control Network (LCN)




                The backbone of every TPS system is a communication network,
     known as
 Local Control Network. The LCN is a LAN through which TDC 3000 modules
communicate with each other. The LCN is a broadcast type of LAN. It is high speed
 redundant communication bus that connect all the control room equipment. All
     information
 is transferred on the network at 5 million bits per sec.,serially. It is based on the
     IEEE 802.4
 Token passing and Bus Standard.
                 Each LCN device that is connected to the Local Control Network is
     called a
 module. Up to 64 modules may be connected to the Local Control Network in a
     TPS
 system. The Local Control Network is designated as the primary and the other as
     the back
Communication Subsystem


                      Universal Control Network (UCN)

              The Universal Control Network is a high speed, high security
   process
control network based on open system interconnection standards. It
   features a 5
megabit/second, carrier band, token bus network compatible with IEEE and
   ISO
standards. It is used as the real time redundant Communications backbone
   for
process connected devices such as the High Performance Process Manager
(HPM), Advanced Process Manager . The UCN supports peer-to-peer
communication for sharing data and allowing greater co-ordination of
   control
strategies among network devices. The UCN uses redundant co-axial cables
   and can
support up to 32 redundant devices
               UCN supports 2 types of devices
High Performance Process Manager
   (HPM)

The High Performance Process Manager is the latest in the Progression of
    High
Performance control products offered by Honeywell for the application to
Improve controlling of existing and new industrial processes. High
    Performance
Process Manager is a fully integrated member of the TPS family. It is
    capable
 of :
• performing data acquisition and control functions
• fully communicating with operators and engineers at the GUSs and
    universal Work stations.
• Supporting higher-level strategies available on the Local Control
    Network through the Application Module and Host Computers.
High Performance Process Manager Overview

The High Performance Process Manager uses a powerful multi-processor
    architecture
 with separate microprocessors dedicated to perform specific tasks. The HPM
    consists
 of two modules Communication and Control Module (CCM) and the I/O
    subsystem
  the I/O subsystem consist of up to 40 Smart I/O Modules (SIOM). All control
operation are performed within the communication and control module. The
    process
engineer has complete flexibility of choice within the maximum HPM design
    limits.
 These selections are implemented using the interactive tools provided by
    both the
 GUS and Universal Work Station. The I/O processors, for example, provide
    such
 functions as engineering unit conversion and alarm limit checking
    independent of the
 communication and control modules.

Ethernet

      HIS and ENG, HIS and supervisory systems can be
 connected by an
Ethernet LAN; supervisory computers and personal
 computers on the Ethernet
LAN can access messages and trend data in the CS 3000
 system. The Ethernet
can also be used for sending trend data files from the HIS
 to supervisory
computers, or for equalizing the data in the two HIS station
 ( rather than using
the V net control bus to do this ). A system with only one
 HIS with engineering
functions installed, does not need Ethernet – but in general
 Ethernet ( and
corresponding network engineering ) is required.

History of Process Control Signal
          Around 50 years ago, most plant used 3-15psi pneumatic signal to control their
    process.
 The last change change in signal standard was the open protocol HART digital
    communications
 format. The HART protocol provides simultaneous digital communications with the 4-20
    mA
 output.
            The next protocol change will be fieldbus. Fieldbus is entirely digital-there is
    no analog
Signal. Fieldbus also allows migration of control functions to field devices.
               Process control Timeline – The Evolution of Signal Standard
          Signal standards have evolved over the years, starting with the 3-15 psi
    standard.
 There are also other communication methods, but they have not gained widespread

Fieldbus Architecture
Fieldbus is more than just a new signal communications protocol, but a whole new way
    to
 control the process. With the release of the low fieldbus (H1), the entire fieldbus will
    be
 defined. Most of the recent published literature has focused on the intricate details of
    the
 fieldbus architecture, especially those layers that have not been released. However,

       For the purpose of Process control, the top and bottom four layers are used.
        Layers 5 and 6 are important to large commercial networks.
Field Bus
Field Bus is a bi-directional digital communication that interconnects smart field
    devices to
 control system or to instrument located in the control room.
Field Bus is based on the OSI (Open System Interconnect), which was developed by
    the ISO
(International Standard Organization) to represent the various functions required in
    any

 The OSI model consists of seven layers. However for real time application
   layers 3 to 6 are
  not considered since they deal with transference of data among networks.

  application following layers are used:
• LAYER 1 - PHYSICAL LAYER
     Defines the type of signal, transmitting medium, data transmission
   speed, etc.
• LAYER 2 – DATALINK LAYER
   Define the interface between the physical layer and the application layer.
   It establishes
     how the messages shall be structured and normalizes the use of
   multiple masters.
• LAYER 3 – APPLICATION LAYER
   Defines howwas invented by an Indian engineer Mr. Ramrepresentation.
    The Fieldbus data is specified, its addresses and its Ramchandran
                                                  ( M.S in Comp. Tech , Texas)
PHYSICAL LAYER
The Physical layer defines the medium that transport the messages frames, the signal
    shape and
 amplitude limits, data transfer rate, and power distribution.
Technical Characteristics:
Physical Medium
          Three types are defined: wires, optic fiber, and radio signals. The
    specification for
          wire has been already approved.
Bit rate for wire media
          31.25 Kbps (H1)
          1 megabits and 2.5 megabits (H2).
          H1 and H2 are classification of the two hanks of Field Bus target applications.
    H1 has
          low speed and utilizes existing wires. H2 has high speed and may require
    independent
          wires to power up field devices.
Number of devices per link (31.25Kbps)
          2 to 32 devices, without power and no IS (intrinsic safety).
          2 to 6 with power and IS.
Maximum distance
          Up to 1900 meters for 31.25Kbps, without repeaters. Up to 750 meters for 1
          megabits. Up to 500 meter for 2.5 megabits.
PHYSICAL LAYER
Signal Modulation
        Manchester bi phase L synchronous.

Physical layer preamble
          on transmissions, the physical layer will add to the data sent by the layer
   above a
          preamble and one start delimiter in the beginning of the frame and one end
   delimiter
          at the end delimiter at the end of the of the frame.
DATA LINK LAYER
The Data Link Layer will assure the integrity of the message by using the frame check
   sequence:
Two bytes added to the frames and a polynomial calculation of all frame data.
The Data Link Layer also checks to see that the data reaches the devices correctly.

Technical characteristics
Medium Access: There are three forms to access the network:
• Token passing:
         Token is the right to initiate a transaction on the bus. A device must have the
   token to
         initiate a conversation. As soon it finishes it will return the token to the LAS
   (Link
         Active Scheduler). The LAS send the token to the unit that requested in either
   in a
         pre-configured way or via scheduling.
• Immediate response:
         A master station will give an opportunity to the station to reply with one frame.
• Requested token:
         a device request a token by using a code in any of the response sent to the
   bus. The
APPLICATION LAYER AND MANAGEMENT

The Application Layer provides a simple interface to the end user’s application.
    Basically , it
 defines how to read, write , interpret and execute a message or command. A
    big part of this job
 is to define the message syntax. The contents include the requested message,
    action taken, and
 the response message.

The management defines how to initialize the network : tag assignment,
   address assignment,
clock assignment, clock synchronization, distributed application scheduling
   across the network
or association of the input and output parameters of the function blocks. It
   also controls the
operation of the network with statistic of faults and detection of the addition of
   the new element
or the absence of a station. The system always look for the new stations on
   the bus by polling
the possible station addresses.

HART COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
Why HART protocol ?
 4-20 ma is tried, tested and widely used standard but only limited amount of
       information
  is sent by a 4-20 ma signal.
 HART (Hiway Addressable Remote Transducer) protocol enhances these
       operations by
  transmitting digital data along with the 4-20 ma signal – without interfering with
       it !
 HART permits two-way communications. It also has all digital mode that allows
  instrument to be connected to a single cable, cutting installation costs
       dramatically.

Features :
    1. Field proven concept that is easy to understand and use.
    2. Compatible with existing 4-20 ma systems.
    3. Simultaneous point-to-point 4-20 ma and digital communication.
    4. Alternative multi-drop mode.
    5. Measured variables, tag no. , range and span settings, device
        information, diagnostics and simple messages transmitted.
    6. Digital response time of 500 msec; burst mode response of 300 msec.
    7. Open architecture; freely available to any vendor and every user.
HART COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
Method of Operation :
 The Hart protocol operates using the FSK principal. The digital data is
  made up from two
  frequencies –1200 Hz and 2200 Hz representing bits 1 and 0
  respectively. Sinusoidal
  waves of these frequencies are superimposed on the DC analog signal
  cables to give
  simultaneous analog and digital communications




HART Protocol Structure :
 HART follows the basic Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference
  model, developed
 by the International Organization for Standard (ISO). The HART protocol
  uses a reduced
 OSI model, implementing only layers 1,2 and 7

HART PROTOCOL LAYERS
Layer 1, the physical layer, operates on the FSK principle
   Data transfer rate: 1200 bit/s
   Logic “0” frequency: 2200 Hz
   Logic “1” frequency: 1200 Hz
 the vast majority of existing wiring is used for this type of digital communication.

Layer 2, the link layer establishes the format for a hart message. HART is a
   master/slave
 protocol.
  the structure of these messages is given below:
          Preambl SD       AD     CD    BC    Statu   Dat    Parity
          e                                   s       a


 SD – start character.                      AD – display terminal and field
  addresses.
 CD – HART instruction.                 BC – Byte count.
  Status – Field device and communication status (only from field device to
  master)
  The individual characters are : 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 bit for odd parity and 1
HART PROTOCOL LAYERS


Layer 7, the application layer, brings the HART instruction into play. The master
  sends
 messages with requests for specified values, actual values and any other data or
  parameters
 available from the device. The field device interprets these instruction as defined
  in the
HART protocol. The response message provides the master with the status
  information
 and data from the slave.
For slave devices, logical uniform communication is provided by the following
  command
 sets:
  Universal commands – understood by all field devices.
  Common practice commands – provide functions which can be carried out by
  many,
     though not all, field devices.
  Drive-specific commands – provide functions which are restricted to an
  individual

                              and multiple groups.
 Application layer : Communication status terminated in a response
   message.
MODBUS
          The MODBUS protocol describes an industrial communication and
 distributed
control system developed by Gould-Modicon. MODBUS is a Master/Slave
communications protocol, whereby one device (Master), controls all serial
 activities by
selectively polling one or more slave devices. The protocol provides for one master
 device
and up to 247 slave devices on a common line. Each device is assigned an
 address to
distinguish it from all other connected device.
          Only a master initiates a transaction. Transactions are either a
 query/response type,
or a broadcast/no-response type. A transaction comprises a single query and
 single
response frame or a single broadcast frame.
          Certain characteristic of a MODBUS protocol are fixed such as frame
 format, frame
sequences, handling of communication errors and exception conditions, and the
 functions
performed.
RS-232 Communication



         RS-232 is an asynchronous communication network. Normally, a binary
   system is
used to transmit data in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information
   Interchange)
format. This code translates human readable code (letter/numbers) into “computer
   readable”
code(1’s and 0’s).
         There are 2 types of RS-232 devices. The first is called a DTE (Data Terminal
Equipment) device and a common example is a computer. The other type of device is
   called
DCE (Data Communication Equipment) device and a common example is a modem.
         In RS-232 the first thing a terminal send is start bit. This start bit is a
   synchronizing
bit added just before each character being send. The last thing send is a stop bit.
   This stop bit
informs to the receiving terminal that the last character has just being send.
RS-232 Communication
RS-232 communication is done through Serial port which usually has a 9-pin
 configuration. The pin and their purposes are shown below.

     mission
critical application. Today, QNX is the real time operating system in industrial
     automation,
 hand held devices, controllers and soft PLCs


QNX is recognized as :
• The fastest and most dependable real time operating system.
• The most proven high speed, deterministic real time kernel.
• Having a hard real time engine that gives PLC-style control.
• Enabling data acquisition with milliseconds resolution.
• Providing a fault-tolerant architecture on which you can run control, events,
  alarms in a virtually crash-proof environment.
Windows NT - for Process control
Windows NT features :
• A true 32 bit processing.
• A very reliable operating system.
• Real operating system.
• Multiprocessing, Multithreading and partitioned memory space.
• Security - C2 compliance.
• In-built networking.
• Internationalization.
• Human interface.
• Object-based DCOM/OLE :
       The sending object is shown as client and receiving object is known as
   server. The
       MS technology allows any developer to produce small, self contain objects
   that have
       “packaged” visual component and specific action. These components are
   called
       “ActiveX” objects. NT’s OLE technology is part of Microsoft’s Distributed
       Component Object Model (DCOM) operating across networks. Anyone can
   develop
      ActiveX Object using VC++ or even VB on a PC. For special needs of the
   process
     control industries DCOM and OLE are not secure, deterministic and robust
   enough.
Ethernet
       Ethernet was originally designed by Digital, Intel and Xerox (DIX) in the early
     1970’s
and has been designed as a broadcast system. The original format for Ethernet was
     developed
in Xerox Palo Alto Research center (PARC), California in 1972. The two inventors
     were
Robert Metcalf and David Boggs.
       Ethernet version 1.0 and 2.0 followed until the IEEE 802.3 committee re-
     jigged the
Ethernet II packet to form the Ethernet 802.3 packet. Nowadays you will see either
Ethernet II (DIX) format or Ethernet 802.3 format being used.
       The ‘Ether’ part of Ethernet denotes that the system is not meant to be
     restricted only to
one medium type, copper cables, fiber cables and even radio waves can be used.
       Briefly, stated Ethernet what is referred to as the Physical layer and the Data-
     link layers
protocols. The physical layer defines the cable types, connectors and electrical
     characteristics.
The Data link layer defines the format an Ethernet frames, the error checking
     method and the
Ethernet
10Base5
       Traditionally, Ethernet is used over ‘thick’ coaxial cable called 10Base5 (
   the 10
denotes 10 Mbps, base means that the signal is baseband i.e, takes the whole
   bandwidth
of the cable, 5 denotes 500m maximum length ). The minimum length
   between stations
is 2.5m.
       The cable is run in one long length forming a ‘Bus Topology’. The
   segments are
terminated by 50 ohm resistor and the shield should be grounded at one end
   only.


10Base2
     Thin Ethernet (Thinnet) uses RG-58 cable and is called 10Base2 (the 2
  denotes
200 mtr maximum length cable). Each station connects to the Thinnet by way
  of
Ethernet



10BaseT
       Nowadays, it is becoming increasingly important to use Ethernet across
   Unshielded
Twisted Pair (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair (STP), this being called 10BaseT (the T
denotes twisted pair). UTP is installed in star wire format and Ethernet Hubs with
   UTP ports
(RJ45) centrally located. Also there should be no more than a 11.5db signal loss and
   the
minimum distance between devices is 2.5 meters.
      The advantages of the UTP/STP technology are gained from the flexibility of
   the
system, with respect to moves, changes, fault finding, reliability and security.

10BaseF
       10BaseF standard developed by IEEE 802.3 committee defines the use of Fiber
   for
 Ethernet. 10BaseFB allows up to 2 Km per segment and is defined for Backbone
Ethernet

The following table shows the RJ45 pin outs for 10BaseT :

Wireless LAN
Wireless LAN is based on standard IEEE 802.11b which throughput of up to 11Mbps in
    the
2.4 Ghz band. Similar Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) are Bluetooth and
    Infrared.
   Ethernet works on the CSMA/CD technology but wireless LAN has difficulty of
    detecting
collision in Radio frequency. Therefore they are using CSMA/CA (Collision Sense Multiple
Access / Collision Avoidance) technology to transmit data. Physical Layer is either
    Photonic or
Radio frequency.
Process control Software characteristics
 The most important feature of process control system is that it needs to be
      reliable. The
process control system used has to be completely crash-proof and any changes in
      the
system need to be made on-line.
 The process control needs to be made real time, which means that it can
      update the I/O
data table and process the control program in the time required by the process.
 A process control system that is deterministic refers to whether the operating
      system
allows the highest priority task to work without interruption from task with lower
      priority.
 Software offerings in the automation and the process control fields must be
      versatile and
open enough to address the needs of different applications.
 Finally the chosen solution must deliver tangible, quantifiable values such as :
1. Reducing project implementation time and cost.
2. Improving time-to-market.
3. Achieving higher production and quality.
4. Cutting maintenance and training cost.
PC-based control system features
  Unlike the other systems, PCs provide a more open architecture making them ideal
    for
 improving, optimizing and integrating the overall automation process, as well as
    conducting
 control task.
  In addition PCs offer the following features :
• Lower cost.
• Ease of use.
• Graphical user interface.
• Easy integration of logic, motion and process control.
• Simplified application development.
• Software portability
• Independence from proprietary control system.
  Using PCs enable the following functions,
• Millisecond time stamping which is essential to utilities.
• Real time control.
• Sequence of events.
• Alarming.
• Data collection.

PLC Programming Standards


              The open, manufacturer-independent programming standard for
  automation is
IEC 61131-3. You can thus choose what configuration interface you wish to use
  when
writing your application :

•   Ladder Diagram
•   Instruction List
•   Function Block Diagram
•   Sequential Function Chart
•   Structured Text

                All users, be they plant electrician or computer scientists, thus have
    a configuration interface in which they can feel at home.

Distributed Control System Basics

  • 1.
  • 9. CONTROL SYSTEMS TREND 1) PLC 2) DCS 3) PC - Based Control. • PLC : Introduced in the late 1960 to replace Relays and Hard-wired Programming.
  • 10. DCS : Introduced in the Mid-1970 to replace pneumatic controls by using computers. • PC-Based Control : Introduced by the early 1980s to avoid the proprietary PLC & DCS systems.
  • 11. DCS EVOLUTION • LOCAL CONTROL : Initially control was performed local to the equipment control. The ADVANTAGE was low wiring costs .DISADVANTAGES were - not much control, monitoring, alarming & history. • CENTRALISED CONTROL: With the advent of minicomputer, sensors and actuators were into the Central Control (Computer). • DISTRIBUTED CONTROL: With the advent of microcomputer, Distributed control systems were installed in the plants near to the control room via proprietary digital communications lines called as Data Hiway. First DCS was developed by Honeywell,U.S in 1975. The ADVANTAGES were greatly reduced wiring costs, much more limited failure and less cost to add more points. The DISADVANTAGES were that wiring costs were that wiring costs were still significant and there was lack of interoperability among controllers of various manufacturers due to the proprietary protocols. Hence the user was locked into a single vendor.

  • 65. History of Process Control Signal Around 50 years ago, most plant used 3-15psi pneumatic signal to control their process. The last change change in signal standard was the open protocol HART digital communications format. The HART protocol provides simultaneous digital communications with the 4-20 mA output. The next protocol change will be fieldbus. Fieldbus is entirely digital-there is no analog Signal. Fieldbus also allows migration of control functions to field devices. Process control Timeline – The Evolution of Signal Standard Signal standards have evolved over the years, starting with the 3-15 psi standard. There are also other communication methods, but they have not gained widespread Digital: Fieldbus acceptance. Digital plus Analog: HART with 4-20mA With many standard there is typically a slow transition period as plant Analog: 4-20mA engineers and Pneumatic: 3-15 psi managers test period does gain widespread acceptance. However, once the benefits of the 1940 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 Fieldbus become tested and proven, more plant will install Fieldbus because of its

  • 71. Field Bus The OSI model consists of seven layers. However for real time application layers 3 to 6 are not considered since they deal with transference of data among networks. For such application following layers are used: • LAYER 1 - PHYSICAL LAYER Defines the type of signal, transmitting medium, data transmission speed, etc. • LAYER 2 – DATALINK LAYER Define the interface between the physical layer and the application layer. It establishes how the messages shall be structured and normalizes the use of multiple masters. • LAYER 3 – APPLICATION LAYER Defines howwas invented by an Indian engineer Mr. Ramrepresentation. The Fieldbus data is specified, its addresses and its Ramchandran ( M.S in Comp. Tech , Texas)
  • 72. PHYSICAL LAYER The Physical layer defines the medium that transport the messages frames, the signal shape and amplitude limits, data transfer rate, and power distribution.

  • 74. DATA LINK LAYER The Data Link Layer will assure the integrity of the message by using the frame check sequence: Two bytes added to the frames and a polynomial calculation of all frame data. The Data Link Layer also checks to see that the data reaches the devices correctly. Technical characteristics Medium Access: There are three forms to access the network: • Token passing: Token is the right to initiate a transaction on the bus. A device must have the token to initiate a conversation. As soon it finishes it will return the token to the LAS (Link Active Scheduler). The LAS send the token to the unit that requested in either in a pre-configured way or via scheduling. • Immediate response: A master station will give an opportunity to the station to reply with one frame. • Requested token: a device request a token by using a code in any of the response sent to the bus. The
  • 75. APPLICATION LAYER AND MANAGEMENT The Application Layer provides a simple interface to the end user’s application. Basically , it defines how to read, write , interpret and execute a message or command. A big part of this job is to define the message syntax. The contents include the requested message, action taken, and the response message. The management defines how to initialize the network : tag assignment, address assignment, clock assignment, clock synchronization, distributed application scheduling across the network or association of the input and output parameters of the function blocks. It also controls the operation of the network with statistic of faults and detection of the addition of the new element or the absence of a station. The system always look for the new stations on the bus by polling the possible station addresses.

  • 77. HART COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL Why HART protocol ? 4-20 ma is tried, tested and widely used standard but only limited amount of information is sent by a 4-20 ma signal. HART (Hiway Addressable Remote Transducer) protocol enhances these operations by transmitting digital data along with the 4-20 ma signal – without interfering with it ! HART permits two-way communications. It also has all digital mode that allows instrument to be connected to a single cable, cutting installation costs dramatically. Features : 1. Field proven concept that is easy to understand and use. 2. Compatible with existing 4-20 ma systems. 3. Simultaneous point-to-point 4-20 ma and digital communication. 4. Alternative multi-drop mode. 5. Measured variables, tag no. , range and span settings, device information, diagnostics and simple messages transmitted. 6. Digital response time of 500 msec; burst mode response of 300 msec. 7. Open architecture; freely available to any vendor and every user.

Layer 2, the link layer establishes the format for a hart message. HART is a master/slave protocol. the structure of these messages is given below: Preambl SD AD CD BC Statu Dat Parity e s a SD – start character. AD – display terminal and field addresses. CD – HART instruction. BC – Byte count. Status – Field device and communication status (only from field device to master) The individual characters are : 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 bit for odd parity and 1
  • 81. HART PROTOCOL LAYERS Layer 7, the application layer, brings the HART instruction into play. The master sends messages with requests for specified values, actual values and any other data or parameters available from the device. The field device interprets these instruction as defined in the HART protocol. The response message provides the master with the status information and data from the slave. For slave devices, logical uniform communication is provided by the following command sets: Universal commands – understood by all field devices. Common practice commands – provide functions which can be carried out by many, though not all, field devices. Drive-specific commands – provide functions which are restricted to an individual

  • 83. MODBUS The MODBUS protocol describes an industrial communication and distributed control system developed by Gould-Modicon. MODBUS is a Master/Slave communications protocol, whereby one device (Master), controls all serial activities by selectively polling one or more slave devices. The protocol provides for one master device and up to 247 slave devices on a common line. Each device is assigned an address to distinguish it from all other connected device. Only a master initiates a transaction. Transactions are either a query/response type, or a broadcast/no-response type. A transaction comprises a single query and single response frame or a single broadcast frame. Certain characteristic of a MODBUS protocol are fixed such as frame format, frame sequences, handling of communication errors and exception conditions, and the functions performed.
  • 84. RS-232 Communication RS-232 is an asynchronous communication network. Normally, a binary system is used to transmit data in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) format. This code translates human readable code (letter/numbers) into “computer readable” code(1’s and 0’s). There are 2 types of RS-232 devices. The first is called a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) device and a common example is a computer. The other type of device is called DCE (Data Communication Equipment) device and a common example is a modem. In RS-232 the first thing a terminal send is start bit. This start bit is a synchronizing bit added just before each character being send. The last thing send is a stop bit. This stop bit informs to the receiving terminal that the last character has just being send.
  • 85. RS-232 Communication RS-232 communication is done through Serial port which usually has a 9-pin configuration. The pin and their purposes are shown below. 9-PIN PURPOSE 1 Frame ground 2 Receive data (RD) 3 Transmit data (TD) 4 Data terminal ready (DTR) 5 Signal ground (GND) 6 Data set ready (DSR) 7 Request to send (RTS) 8 Clear to Send (CTS) 9 Ring indicator (RI) *only for modems*

  • 98. Ethernet Ethernet was originally designed by Digital, Intel and Xerox (DIX) in the early 1970’s and has been designed as a broadcast system. The original format for Ethernet was developed in Xerox Palo Alto Research center (PARC), California in 1972. The two inventors were Robert Metcalf and David Boggs. Ethernet version 1.0 and 2.0 followed until the IEEE 802.3 committee re- jigged the Ethernet II packet to form the Ethernet 802.3 packet. Nowadays you will see either Ethernet II (DIX) format or Ethernet 802.3 format being used. The ‘Ether’ part of Ethernet denotes that the system is not meant to be restricted only to one medium type, copper cables, fiber cables and even radio waves can be used.

The minimum length between stations is 2.5m. The cable is run in one long length forming a ‘Bus Topology’. The segments are terminated by 50 ohm resistor and the shield should be grounded at one end only. 10Base2 Thin Ethernet (Thinnet) uses RG-58 cable and is called 10Base2 (the 2 denotes 200 mtr maximum length cable). Each station connects to the Thinnet by way of

The process control system used has to be completely crash-proof and any changes in the system need to be made on-line. The process control needs to be made real time, which means that it can update the I/O data table and process the control program in the time required by the process. A process control system that is deterministic refers to whether the operating system allows the highest priority task to work without interruption from task with lower priority. Software offerings in the automation and the process control fields must be versatile and open enough to address the needs of different applications. Finally the chosen solution must deliver tangible, quantifiable values such as : 1. Reducing project implementation time and cost. 2. Improving time-to-market. 3. Achieving higher production and quality. 4. Cutting maintenance and training cost.
