INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3 4.3.4 R C RCULAT ON PUMP TRIP ACTUATION INSTRUMENTATION The anticipated transient without scram (ATWS) recirculation pump trip system provides a means of limiting the consequences of the unlikely occurrence of a failure to scram during an anticipated transient. The response of the plant to this postulated event falls within the envelope of study events in General Electric Company Topical Report NED0-10349, dated March 1971, and NED0-24222, dated December 1979.
The end-of-cycle recirculation pump trip (EOC-RPT) system is a part of the reactor protection system and is an essential safety supplement to the reactor trip. The purpose of the EOC-RPT is to recover the loss of thermal margin which occurs at the end-of-cycle. The physical phenomenon involved is that the void reactivity feedback due to a pressurization transient can .add positive reactivity to the reactor system at a faster rate than the control rods add negative scram reactivity. Each EOC-RPT.system trips both recircula-tion pumps, reducing coolant flow in order to reduce the void collapse in the core during two of the most limiting pressurization events. The two events for which the EOC-RPT protective feature will function are closure of the turbine throttle valves and fast closure of the turbine governor valves.
A fast closure sensor from each of two turbine governor valves provides input to the EOC-RPT system; a fast closure'sensor from each of the other two turbine governor valves provides input to the second EOC-RPT system. Simil-arly, a position switch for each of two turbine throttle valves provides input to one EOC-RPT system; a position switch from each of the other two throttle valves provides input to the other EOC-RPT system. For each EOC-RPT system, the sensor relay contacts are arranged to form a 2-out-of-2 logic for the fast closure of turbine governor valves and a 2-out-of-2 logic for the turbine throttle valves. The operation of either logic will actuate the EOC-RPT system and trip both recirculation pumps.
Each EOC-RPT'ystem may be manually bypassed by use of a keyswitch which is administratively controlled. The manual bypasses and the automatic Operating Bypass at less than 30K of RATED THERMAL POWER are annunciated in the control room. The EOC-RPT System instrumentation that provides a trip signal measures first stage turbine pressure to initiate a trip signal. The safety analysis requiring an EOC-RPT bases initial conditions on rated .power and specifies turbine bypass operability at greater than or equal to 30K of rated thermal power . Because first stage pressure can vary depending on operating conditions, the qualifying notes describing when the turbine bypass feature is to disabled specify a turbine first stage pressure corresponding to less than 30K RTP (turbine first stage pressure is dependent on the operating parameters of the reactor, turbine, and condenser). Therefore, because a value for turbine first stage pressure cannot be precisely fixed and because pressure measurement initiates the trip the Technical Specification refers to a pressure associated with a specific Rated Thermal Power value rather than a value for pressure.
The EOC-RPT system response time is the time assumed in the analysis between initiation of valve motion and complete suppression of the electric arc, i.e., 190ms, less the time allotted for sensor response, i.e., 10ms, and less the time allotted for breaker arc suppression determined by test,'s correlated to manufacturer's test results, i.e., 83ms, and plant preoperational test results. Add KdsERT L Operation with a trip set less conservative than its Trip Setpoint but within its specified Allowable Value is acceptable on the basis that the difference between each Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value is equal to or less than the drift allowance assumed for each trip in the safety analyses.

RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL
~
The following information provides the Supply System responses to the staff questions from Reference 1. The question numbers and question statements from the Reference 1 enclosure are
~
duplicated for convenience and tracking. ~
Qi~eion 1 What are the sources of power for the GE-FANUC system?
~Res onse The GE-PANUC control system for the RRC system ASD is located in main control room panel E-CP-H13/P634. The 120 VAC power to the H13/P634 panel is supplied from a critical bus.
The PANUC Input/Output (I/O) signal communication panel, E-CP-RRC/ASD/1, is located in the ASD building. The 120 VAC supply to the local ASD panel (E-CP-RRC/ASD/1) is powered from E-PP-ASD1/4 circuits 5 and 6. The E-PP-ASD1/4 panel is fed from two redundant uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units (RRC-IN-ASD/1A and 1B). Ifone UPS power source fails, the control system will automatically switch to the alternate source.
guestion 2 Explain how the GTO chopping technique works to eliminate harmonic frequencies to the motor which could create resonance. What are the consequences ifthe chopping technique fails? What
~
~ ~
indication is given in the control room of a GTO failure?
~
~Res onse The ASD can be divided into two parts: (1) the silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) source (rectifying AC into DC) bridge and (2) the gate turn-off (GTO) load (inverting DC back into a variable AC) bridge. The SCR source bridge is used to regulate the torque producing current to the motor. The GTO load bridge uses a pulse width modulation (PWM) technique to regulate the fundamental frequency and power factor to the motor. By inserting chops (or pulses) at predetermined angles in the output square wave form of the GTO inverter, the PWM technique can eliminate selected harmonics in the ASD output. This chopping method has been programmed into the ASD control to eliminate the following harmonics:

RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL Ifa failure in the chopping software were to remove the chopping function when the pump speed was less than 42 Hz, pump vibration levels could increase. As described in Appendix B of Reference 2, the monitoring equipment would detect excessive vibration.
A GTO failure would initiate either an ASD alarm or fault which willbe annunciated in the main control room. A GTO failure indication will be displayed at the local ASD printer and on the Video Display Unit (VDU) in the main control room at panel H13/P602.
Ques~ti n '3 Describe surveillance/periodic testing to be performed which will assure that harmonic current from the adjustable speed drive will be maintained within established limits at safety as well as non-safety buses.
R~es onse There are no plans to perform surveillance or periodic testing of the harmonic currents. The baseline test performed in June, 1995 indicated 3.7 percent voltage total harmonic distortion (THD) on the "A" RRC loop and 5.2 percent on the "B" RRC loop. The testing was performed at 30 Hz. In addition, during Power Ascension Testing the harmonics will be monitored and compared to previous results.
The safety related loads are fed from normal transformer one (TR-N1) and are isolated from the harmonics effect. The equipment connected to SH-5 and SH-6 buses is not safety related. In addition, the windings of normal transformer two (TR-N2) mitigate the effects of the harmonics.
The gate circuits are the primary source of the harmonic voltages. A failure in the gate circuits would cause an increase in the harmonic level. It would also cause a channel trip and be annunciated in the control room. Therefore, no additional surveillance or periodic testing is deemed necessary.
Que~ti in 4 Given that the harmonic currents generated are kept within a 5 percent limit by harmonic filters, will there be any resonant conditions generated which could produce currents greater than the electrical equipment is designed to?
R~es on e The design of the ASD system does not include harmonic filters immediately downstream of the power source to the ASD. Filters were not considered necessary for this installation because the THD was acceptable. The motor filter capacitors act as harmonic filters on the motor side of the ASD. Harmonic filters upstream of the ASD equipment will only be installed if future operating conditions indicate a need for additional filtering. During normal plant operation, the SH-5 and SH-6 buses are connected to TR-N2 and the safety related loads are connected to TR-N1. Thus, there is no interconnection between the non-safety related SH-5 and SH-6 buses and Attachment 1 Page 2 of 14
EC RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL the safety related buses. As discussed in the response to Question 5 (below), the equipment on the critical buses, SM-4, SM-7 and SM-8, will not be affected by the harmonics since the THD voltage levels on the buses that supply this equipment are expected to be less than 0.5 percent.
The primary loads on the SH-5 and SH-6 buses are non-safety related transformers and motors, which are tolerant of harmonics even above 5 percent. The effect of harmonics on these types of loads generally only results in a reduction in expected life due to additional winding heating.
Also, the secondary windings of TR-N2 will attenuate the harmonic voltages for the SH-5 and SH-6 loads.
Question 5 At WNP-2, have electrical; instrumentation, and control system equipment been designed to operate satisfactorily with a harmonic voltage of 5 percent superimposed on the input voltage by operation of the proposed adjustable speed drive?
~Re ggnne At WNP-2 the electrical, instrumentation, and control system equipment have not been specifically designed for use with harmonic voltages.
General Electric performed a harmonic analysis on the WNP-2 6.9 KV electrical system to determine the extent of the harmonics imposed on the system and their effects on electrical equipment connected to SH-5 and SH-6. The GE report of the analysis concluded that TR-N2 and the startup transformer (TR-S) are to be derated 30% and 31%, respectively, based on their forced oil and air rating.
s 'a'proactive'measure, a design. specification has been developed for a- harmonic filter. The filter may be necessary if future additional loads to TR-N2 and TR-S are calculated to exceed the new ratings. There is no derating of the motor loads connected to either TR-N2 or TR-S.
The report concluded that the equipment on the critical buses will not be affected by the harmonics since the THD voltage levels on the buses that supply this equipment are expected to be less than 0.5 percent.
~ues ion 6 Have the harmonic filters been designed and sized for the harmonic current generated from the adjustable speed drive as well as the harmonic current from the power supply system for all modes of plant operation.
~Res ense As discussed in Question 4, the modification does not include harmonic filters.
Attachment 1 Page 3 of 14
RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL Quues ion 7 With the harmonic filters inoperable and the adjustable drive speed at 100 percent, what is the harmonic distortion contribution from the variable speed drive?
~Re onse As discussed in the responses to Questions 4 and 5, the ASD system at WNP-2 does not include harmonic filters. Therefore, the harmonic distortion data presented in Appendix B, page 4, of Reference 2 provides the 100 percent load contribution from the ASD system.
Question 8 It is stated in Appendix B, page 22 [sic], that the onsite operational testing of the ASDs was performed in June 1995 (during a plant outage). During the testing, the highest voltage total harmonic distortion was 5.2 percent as measured at SM-6 [sic]. This value exceeds the 5 percent value established in IEEE-519. What effects does this have on the remaining loads on bus SM-6 [sic]? Are there any other tests done on the ASDs since then? If so, please provide the test results. If not, how many tests are planned in the near future?
R~es onse Note: The discussion of the onsite operational testing appears in Appendix B, page 3 of 22, and includes THD data for the SH-5 and SH-6 buses. It is assumed that this question refers to the SH-6 bus discussed on page 3 of the Appendix.
The SH-5 and SH-6 buses are the 6.9 KV power supply for the ASDs. The SM-1, SM-2, and SM-3 buses are the 4.16 KV power supplies for the safety related buses. Appendix B, page 3, (3rd paragraph, 2nd sentence), of the Reference 2 submittal incorrectly indicated that the SH-6 bus was the safety related SM-7 bus power supply and the SM-1 bus was the ASD power supply (the parenthetical statements following "SH-6" and after "SM-1" were interchanged). The SH-6 bus is actually the ASD power supply and the SM-1 bus is actually the safety related SM-7 bus power supply. The other references to the ASD and safety related bus power supplies are correct.
As discussed in the response to Question 4, the primary loads on the SH-5 and SH-6 buses are non-safety related transformers and motors. The effect of harmonics on these types of loads generally only results in a reduction in expected life due to additional winding heating. Also, the secondary windings of TR-N2 will attenuate the harmonic voltages for the SH-5 and SH-6 loads.
There has been no additional harmonics testing since June, 1995. During the Power Ascension Test the harmonics will be monitored.

RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL Quuet~ion Appendix B, page 4, provides the results of an analysis in percentage of total harmonic distortion in startup as well as in generation mode. Please explain the last three columns of tables on this page.
~Res on e The last three columns of each of the two tables in Appendix B, page 4, are the electric current (I) total harmonic distortion (THD I) analysis results for the startup and generation modes of plant operation.
In the startup mode, the SH-5 and SH-6 buses (ASD power supplies) are connected to the "X" winding of TR-S and the SM-1, SM-2, and SM-3 buses (safety related bus power supplies) are connected to the "Y" winding of TR-S. The primary (or high side) winding of TR-S is designated as the "H" winding. The THD I data for the TR-S windings (with respect to the various ASD channel operating modes) are contained in the last three columns of the startup mode table. The columns labeled "THD I" in conjunction with "TRS-X," "TRS- Y," and "TRS-H" contain the THD I data analyzed to be at the "X," "Y," and "H" windings of TR-S, respectively.
In the generation mode, the main generator supplies power to the main step-up transformers (TR-M) which, in turn, supply power to the Bonneville Power Administration 500 KV grid system. In this mode, the main generator also supplies power to TR-N1 and TR-N2, The SH-5 and SH-6 buses are connected to TR-N2 and the SM-1, SM-2, and SM-3 buses are connected to TR-Nl in the generation mode. The columns labeled "THD I" in conjunction with "TR-N2" and "TR-M" contain the THD I data analyzed for TR-N2 and TR-M secondary (low side) windings, respectively. The column labeled "THD I" in conjunction with "TR-Nl (Pri)"
contains the THD I data analyzed for TR-Nl primary (high side) winding.
Also, in the startup mode table in Appendix B, page 4, 20, 40 and 60 percent load rows represent the startup mode condition. The analytical data support a speed increase to 60 percent during the startup mode without reaching the 5 percent limiting value (recommended in IEEE-519) on any bus.
uestion 1 It is stated in Appendix B, page 2, that the adjustable speed operation affects RPT breaker performance. Since the ASDs vary the frequency of the power supplied to the motor, the opening time of the breaker will vary inversely with the supplied voltage, i.e., if the system is operating at 15 HZ the opening time of the RPT breakers increases to 20 cycles (assuming normal opening time of the breaker to be 5 cycles). With this delay in opening time, are these breakers still properly coordinated with the containment electrical penetration conductors for all possible short circuit conditions, including maximum available fault current? Your response should also include the coordinated fault-current-versus-time curves for these penetrations.

RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL
~Res ense This response divides the question into two parts. What effect will operating at 15 Hz have on the EOC-RPT breaker opening time? Are the containment electrical penetration conductors protected from all possible short circuit conditions?
This installation has no adverse effect on the EQC-RPT breaker opening time. The EOC-RPT system is required to be operable above 30 percent rated thermal power. The current EOC-RPT system trips the 60 Hz power supply to the RRC pumps by opening the EOC-RFZ breakers, transferring the pumps to the 15 Hz power supply. Following the installation of the ASD, an EOC-RPT signal will still open the EOC-RPT breakers, tripping the RRC pumps. However, the pumps will no longer transfer to another power supply. The opening time of the EOC-RPT breaker is not a direct inverse function of the frequency. The breaker opening time includes the mechanical spring opening time plus the arc quenching capability. The mechanical spring opening time is constant and independent of frequency. The arc quenching varies inversely with the frequency. Consequently, it was conservative for the transient analysis to assume the entire opening time was inversely proportional to frequency.
The current limiting function and the short circuit protection for the penetrations are discussed below. The relay fault current vs time curves showing the ASD application are still being developed. Preliminary checks have shown that the points in question are to the left of the 1000 MCM damaged time (i') curve. With no points to the right of this curve, the operating conditions are then bounded.
The containment penetration conductor protection is still provided by the RRA and RRB breakers (primary feeder breakers for the ASD) and backed up by the SH-5 and SH-6 feeder breakers.
Since these breakers still operate in the 60 Hz portion of the system, opening time is not impacted due to the 15 Hz operation downstream of the ASD. Additional protection is provided however, from the volts/hz, over current, and voltage balance relays that have the sensors located downstream of the ASD but trip the RRA and RRB breakers. The over current relays fed from the current sensors connected upstream of the ASD equipment satisfy the Technical Specification requirements for containment penetration conductor protection. The ASD installation improves the over current protection by:
- 1. providing higher impedance between power source and load;
- 2. isolating the penetration from 6.9 KV motor fault current contribution;
- 3. the ASD current limiting design function.
The cable penetrations for the RRC pump motor consist of one 1000 MCM copper conductor per phase. To protect a cable penetration against a through-fault current level estimated at 1916 amps (RMS), the RRA, RRB, SH-S, and SH-6 circuit breakers must interrupt the fault in 1000 seconds or less. The tripping time required to protect the cable penetration is well within the tripping time of these breakers.

(30 - 50 ms). ~
The ASD is a current source type drive. That is, the ASD is designed to maintain the operating current required by the motor, even if the load impedance changes. Upon a short-circuit fault, the ASD current can surge up to 2.5 times its operating current. But the iterative scan function of the microprocessor will regulate the fault current back down by reducing its output voltage.
The operating current at each of the ASD terminals is 726 amps @ 63 Hz. The expected short-circuit current surge from the ASD is:
726 amps x 2.5 = ~1815 am 0 (RMS)
Each ASD channel has an instantaneous trip which is set at:
1.7 x 654 amps (Drive Base current) = ~1112 am s (RMS)
Upon a short-circuit fault greater than 1112 amps, the ASD will interrupt the fault within 20
- msec, In the 12 pulse mode, the ASD fault contribution to a fault on the 6.9 KV bus will be:
1815 amps x 2 x (3800/7200) = tOO16 am 1s (RMS) where: 2 = number of ASD channels; 3800/7200 = transformer ratio In addition to the ASD short-circuit current contribution, the motor filter capacitors located at the ASD terminals will also discharge a current into the fault. This capacitor peak discharge current may be as large as 30,000 amps. Since this peak discharge current should dissipate to a safe value within 2 to 3 cycles, it will not have a detrimental impact on the cable penetrations for the RRC pump motor circuits.

RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL Question 12 The change from 18 month to 24 month surveillance interval and some of the accident analysis sections refer to the high reliability of the FANUC and MEM units. The numbers are given as "per demand."
- a. Provide a description of this term as it relates to the startup and normal operation of the ASDs.
- b. Provide the information which forms the basis for those reliability numbers.
~Res onse
- a. The system failure probabilities of 1.25 E-06 and 4.26 E-06 per system demand that were calculated for the recirculation flow control system GE-FANUC control logic and the entire ASD system, respectively. The "per demand" phrase refers to the situation where the system is in a state of readiness to perform its function (shutdown or operating at steady state) and a demand is made on the system to change state (e.g., startup, runback, operator demand for a higher or lower speed).
The "per demand" numbers given consider both the probability that the GE-FANUC or ASD MEM will not respond to the demand and the probability of random failure. The analysis considers faults occur when there is a demand placed on the system. The "per demand" type of analysis is typically used for standby systems that must respond on demand.
- b. The reliability numbers were taken from GE proprietary reliability analysis report NEDC-32232P, "WNP-2 Reactor Recirculation Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD) System Reliability Analysis," prepared by GE Nuclear Energy and dated August, 1993. The non-proprietary Executive Summary from this document is included as Attachment 3 and describes the methodology. The failure rate information in this analysis was derived from manufacturer information and industrial failure rate information. This analysis also analyzed the system on a parts count basis and calculated a single channel failure rate of 6.85 E-05 per hour, which was considered low. The parts count approach is conservative since it assumes that all component failures lead to system unavailability.
The calculated control logic and system availability were calculated to be 99.9998 percent and 99.9994 percent, respectively.
Additional reliability numbers for ASDs are found in EPRI TR-101140, "Adjustable Speed Drives Application Guide," dated December, 1992. This report indicates a mean time between failure (MTBF) for an ASD with dual channels of 120,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br />.

RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL uestion 1 Are all of the alarms listed in Table 2 of Appendix B fsic] annunciated in the control room?
R~~on e The two hardwired alarms from each ASD channel annunciated in the control room are "ASD ALARM" and "ASD FAULT." The alarms listed in Table 2, Appendix C, page 6, of the Reference 2 submittal are displayed on the VDU mounted in the H13/P602 panel in the main control room.
~ue liin n14 Does the logic provide for continued acceleration ifthere is a failure of one of the ASD channels between 2 and 15 Hz?
R~es ense During normal startup, the master channel alone (6 pulse operation) will go through the normal startup sequence until a minimum speed of 15 Hz is reached. Once the minimum speed is reached, the slave channel starts, synchronizes with the running channel, and the system goes into 12 pulse operation. If the master channel fails during the startup, the slave channel will synchronize with the running motor and continue the startup sequence. However, the ASD will i only be capable of 6 pulse operation at 15 Hz. There is a 0.5 second delay associated with the slave channel such that the slave channel starts approximately 0.5 seconds after the initial start.
If a slave channel failure occurs during startup with the master channel operating, the master channel would continue the startup sequence. Since the slave channel design precludes synchronizing with the running motor at 15 Hz to provide 12 pulse operation, the master channel would continue in only 6 pulse operation. A failure of either the master or slave channel will be indicated to the control room operators by a fault annunciation and the GE-FANUC automatically limits the maximum speed to 52 Hz for single channel operation.
Qg~tion~l Describe the loss of one ASD in more detail. Is the change of the remaining ASD to 52 HZ instantaneous (as fast as the sense and command can perform it) or is it ramped at the pump coast down rate? Given that a single ASD has torque capability of 52 HZ, are there any effects on the system as a result of motoring at 60 HZ down to 52 HZ? Is the ASD maximum frequency limiter changed at the same time?
Attachment 1 Page 9 of 14
I' RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL
~Res onse While operating in the 12 pulse mode above 52 Hz, a loss of one ASD channel results in the following system responses:
~ The speed reference of the GE-FANUC controls and the maximum speed limit of the operating ASD channel immediately drops to 52 Hz;
~ Upon transferring from the 12 to 6 pulse mode on the loss of one ASD channel, the remaining ASD channel will begin operating in the current limit mode. The current to the RRC pump motor will be reduced approximately 70 percent, The motor will begin to ramp down in speed to 52 Hz, but not as fast as its natural coast down rate of the pump/motor. Just before reaching 52 Hz, the motor current load will be below the current limit of the ASD channel. At 52 Hz the motor will be operating at current and voltage consistent for that operating speed. Thus, there would be no.adverse effects on the system as a result of motoring from 60 Hz to 52 Hz.

~Res onse QAA The ASD, including the software, was manufactured under a GE quality assurance (QA) program. Verification and validation (V&V)and configuration control practices were performed according to industrial standards. However, these practices do not necessarily comply with the NRC standards for a 10 CFR 50, Appendix B QA program, as described in EPRI TR-102348, "Guideline on Licensing Digital Upgrades," and NRC Regulatory Guide 1.152, "Criteria for Programmable Digital Computer System Software in Safety Related Systems of Nuclear Power Plants." The 10 CFR 50 Appendix B QA program was not deemed necessary due to the non-safety related ASD application at WNP-2.
The GE FANUC hardware was manufactured by GE Fanuc Automation North America, Inc in Charlottesville, Virginia. The FANUC hardware was manufactured under a quality control management program which was standard for the industry in 1992, when the equipment was shipped to WNP-2.
onfi urai n man emen The software for the GE Drive System (GEDS) control is a standard firmware design which cannot be modified in the field by the user. The software can be roughly divided into the categories of "background" and "foreground." The foreground consists of the interrupt driven, real time tasks such as firing calculations and regulator calculations, and phase locked loops.
The background consists of tasks such as the monitor, fault/alarm logging, and the control start/stop sequencing. The control tune-up variables for a specific drive are stored in EEPROM memory using a terminal connected to an RS 232 port on the microprocessor card.
Attachment 1 Page 11 of 14
VP RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL The software is made up of modules which were developed, tested and verified through operating experience over the last 8 to 10 years for the GTO-induction motor drive control system. These modules and the resulting object code are stored in a unique job space on the GEDS VAXcomputer (VAXis a Digital Equipment Corporation product line). The object code has a unique "catalog" number which is used by manufacturing to access the proper data for "burning" (permanently programming) the EEPROMs necessary for loading the control microprocessor board.
Ifit is necessary to revise the software to correct errors or to provide new standard functions, a new revision is created which is downward compatible with all earlier revisions. Allprevious modules are preserved by the system. Once the product released to the customer, the software is archived under the control of the GE VAX system manager.
The procedure for creating and maintaining software, controlling viruses, software security, and releasing software is described in the GEDS Requisition Engineering Procedures and Work Instructions "controlled documents" established to comply with International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9000 Standards.
The GE FANUC software was configured at GE-NE in San Jose, California, The software, which can be modified in the field by the user, was designed under the GE-NE quality control program. The software was independently verified and tested with actual GE FANUC hardware and simulated I/Os. The software sent to the Supply System is a controlled document, A copy of the software is stored on a VAX computer in San Jose. If any changes are made to the software during installation or testing, a revised controlled document will be issued by GE. If GE identifies changes needed following installation and testing, the Supply System will be notified.
Error and chan e re ortin For the GEDS, an error and change reporting mechanism is in place to correct errors and make changes as described above. A Field Change Notice is issued to Product Service to order and ship new PROMs to the job site to correct identified problems.
Because the WNP-2 FANUC hardware is registered with GE Fanuc, the'Supply System will be advised of any errors or changes to the GE FANUC hardware.

g RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONALINFORMATION - ASD SUBMITTAL Quuion 22 Verify that there are no changes to the safety related RTP [sic].
~Res onne There are no changes incorporated in this plant modification that impact the safety function or safety related status of the EOC-RPT. The following is a summary of the operational changes to the EOC-RPT design.
One change to the EOC-RPT design was to use existing spare contacts to send a pre-trip signal to the ASDs to initiate shutdown of the ASDs in parallel with the opening of the EOC-RPT breakers. Isolation between the safety related circuits and the non-safety related ASD pre-trip signal is accomplished by using existing electrical isolation relay contacts.
A second change is related to the operating envelope (i.e., from operating only on a 60 Hz basis to a 15 - 63 Hz basis). The effects of ASD variable speed operation on EOC-RPT breaker timing is discussed in Appendix B, pages 2, 11, 12, and 18 of the Reference 2 submittal.
Currently a trip signal to the EOC-RPT breakers will reduce the pump speed to 15 Hz.
Following installation of the ASD system, the EOC-RPT trip will shutdown the RRC pumps.
This is similar to the BWR/4 design.

SUMMARY
This analysis provides the basis for the reliability evaluation of the Reactor Recirculation Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD) System and its GE-FANUC controls for the Washington Public Power Supply System (Supply System) WNP-2 plant.
Reliability analysis includes an estimate of probability that an event (e.g., failure of ASD) will occur and an assessment of the consequential effects on plant availability should it occur. It is important that the probability of occurrence of ASD System failure be low.
This analysis was perfomied in two phases. The first phase encompassed a Failure Modes and Effects Analysis" (FMEA) for the critical "ASD System components. 11iis ASD System FMEA provided a qualitative evaluation and assessment of the critical ASD System components and the significance of their corresponding failure modes. The Parts-Count Method was used to.calculate the single channel failure rate of 6.85E-05 per hour, which is considered low. ~This conservative approach uses random component failure rates and assumes that any single component failure will lead to a complete ASD channel failure.
The second phase was conducted using the CAFTA (Computer Aided Fault Tree Analysis) computer program that quantitatively evaluates failure probabilities, their significance and the overall system unavailability (Reference 11). Two fault trees were developed and analyzed for the GE-FANUC control logic and the entire ASD System design, respectively. Failure probabilities of 125E-06 and 4.26E-06 per system demand were calculated for the GE-FANUC control logic and the entire ASD System, respectively. These failure probabilities are considered low for a non-safety system, and translate into a high ASD System availability of 99.9998 and 99.9994 percent, respectively, based on a system Mean Time To Repair (hfITR) of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> and five hundred ASD System demands per year.
The study concludes that both the Reactor Recirculation ASD System and the GE-FANUC control logic design provide high system availability and more than adequately meet the reliability standards based on established industry guidelines and practices for comparable non-safety systems. No credible failure modes were found that could affect WNP-2 plant safety assumptions for the LOCA, ATWS, Transient and Stability design basis analyses. Furthermore, the ASD reliability system design analyses
'upport'the 10CFR50.59 and 10CFR50.92 safety evaluations included in the WNP-2 Recirculation Pump Adjustable Speed Drive Licensing Report (Reference 1).

GE Drive Systems Reliability Report for Adjustable Speed AC Drives The best practice to determine the reliability of the power conversion and control for adjustable speed ac drives has been to accumulate field performance on operating systems. lt is a more accurate and meaningful method to establish failure rate and MTBF. This has been done and the results are tabulated for each installation site for control and power devices. Each control unit is an operating power converter and control, ie a six pulse system or one channel of a dual channel 12 pulse system. Power device units are. individual SCR or GTO devices, and are not included in the control unit data.
The other major components in the drive system are not included in the report. These include transformer, motor, link'inductor and switchgear. There were no failures of these components in the field data submitted. Also there were no control unit failures from the redundant cooling systems.
There is a fairly wide range of failure rates in the data submitted. This might be rationalized by a number of factors:
1- Factory quality variance 2- User maintenance practices 3- Reporting accuracy 4- 0 perating environment 5- Data interpretation The notable factors from the above are:
1 - Site B was shipped in 11/88 with a new design for the electronic control module with one half the printed circuit boards as in the other sites. Site F had thyristors from a different vendor than the other sites.
2&3 - Site C submitted the mostcomprehensive maintenance report.
4 - Site C is installed in a control room that is not air conditioned as are the other sites. Site C had air filters to minimize dirt laden air into the force ventilated power controller.
5 - Power device failures from poor gate drive were not counted.
The failure rate and MTBF for the total experience at six sites represents a reasonably accurate measure of equipment performance to be expected - on the average. The six sites represent 15 percent of the total GE LCI and IMD drive population in service.
GE Drive Systems All of the sites except B had redundant systems, either 12 pulse dual'channel or six pulse with hot standby. All sites had N + 1 thyristors and redundant cooling systems. A unit failure did not represent a drive failure on the redundant systems. The data submitted identifies four instances where the fan drive tripped. On a drive basis the failure rate was; Unit HRS = 1408 x
= 4 10'ailures Failure rate = 2.8 x 10'ours MTBF = 352,000 hour0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br />s/40 years The data submitted for Sites C and F showed the highest failure rate but had no drive trips.
In summary the failure data from operating systems in a real world environment represents an accurate and meaningful measurement of equipment performance to be expected. In the GE case, the control failure rate should decrease with the decrease in printed circuit board count and the continually increasing quality which comes with standardization.
The field performance data submitted from sites C and E included repair time. The results of this accumulated data show a MTTR (mean time to repair) of 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br />(4 hours when parts are available). Some of the repair times exceeded 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> which suggests that parts were not available at the site. MTTR predictions based on parts available would be significantly lower.
Again, the MTTR prediction of 10 hours1.157407e-4 days <br />0.00278 hours <br />1.653439e-5 weeks <br />3.805e-6 months <br /> represents actual experience in a real world environment which presents a meaningful measurement to use in equipment availability predictions.
Based on MTBF and MTTR the single channel availability is:
A = 1 x 100 = 99.97%
1 + MTTR MTBF And the drive availability for a 12 pulse dual channel or 6 pulse hot standby will be 99.997% as demonstrated in the field.

GT0-IMD GEH4014 CHAPTER 7 DIAGNOSTICS AND TROUBLESHOOTING 7-1. INTRODUCTlON Included in the drive power and electronic circuitry is a multi-layered diagnostic and troubleshooting capability. The main elements of this capability are the following:
- 1. Self testing of critical microcomputer system elements every time the control is reset or power applied..
- 2. A memory type, fault monitor which displays the cause of shutdown in a printed message at the printer.
- 3. Lights and test points on front of cards provide the following information:
a; Attenuated system bus voltages and currents on test points allow a check of magnitude and phasing.
- b. Gate'pulse signals to converter bridge available at test points.
- c. Neon cell voltage indicating lights across each thyristor in power converters for indications of shorted cells.
- d. Overcurrent, overvoltage, and overspeed indicating lights in electronics module.
- e. Card front lights indicate status of all switching input and outputs to/from electronics. module..
- 4. Gate-test-mode allows checkout of analog signal conditioning circuitry, microprocessor firing control, and cell, gate signal integrity while off-line.
- 5. Serial monitor software which allows examination of system memory, inputs, and outputs (Chapter 5).
- 6. Capability to store diagnostic lists of system variables preceding and following fault. conditions. (Chapter 4).;
- 2. CONTROL SELF TEST 7-3. BASlC STRUCTURE The self test routines are PLM86 procedures which may be executed by the HMPG'resident in the Structured Control Electronics Module (SEM/MEM) to test individual PWB's and functions. These routines are executed upon power-up if
, the TEST switch on the NLCB is in the up position.- These routines may also be.run when the drive is in a non-RUN condition by operator commands received via a terminal connected to the HMPG's RS-232 port or by depressing a test switch. The function of the self test is to test most of the control panel for the Structured GTO-IMD, with great emphasis placed on the testing of'the PWB's in the SEM/MEM.
Testing of the panel begins by performing tests of'the hardware elements within a neighborhood of the HMPG'S microprooessor and continues to tests of increasingly remote hardware. All of the tests incorporated within the self test may be classed into 3 groups:
- 1. PWB-Specific tests
- 2. Paired PWB tests
- 3. Panel-level tests 7-4. PWB-SPECIFIC TESTS A great amount of effort has been placed on performing tests that will pinpoint problems on specific PWB's first. In this manner, if any easily diagnosed g problemexists; it will be clearly spelled out to the operator, instead of vaguely fined by a list of possible solutions. Testing such as these comprise the PWB-Specific test group.
.7-1
~ Wt all
7-5. PAIRED PWB TESTS Tests which depend on the operation of several PWB's are chssed within the Paired-P%B group. Diagnostic messages for, failures of these tests will indicate a functional problem and also a list of possible solutions which may be general in nature.
CAUTION Self test exercises the output relays; therefore, the output terminal boards should be disconnected from the I/O module, and/or source and load breakers should be rackedwut and drive stopped.
7-6. PANEL-LEVEL TESTS Panel-level tests also require, correct operation of several PWB's or modules, however, these tests are segregated to allow the user to perform either a module-level test (involving only the control SEM/MEM) or a complete panel-level test which would include this last category of procedures. From a practical point of view, the sequence of testing, within the-control SEM progresses in the following manner
- l. HMPG HLCB
- 3. HAIA
- 4. NSFC (source-master)
- 5. NSFC (load)
- 6. NSFC (source-slave)
- 7. NLCB
- 8. NLlB (source) 9.. NLIB (load)
- 10. HIS A
- 11. HRDA
- 12. NAIF Further tests which include PWB's outside the SEM/MEM, progress in the following sequence:
- 1. ~ Cables leading from the SEM/MEM.

GT0-IMD GEH-6014 7-7. EXECUTING THE TESTS
.e self-test routing may be initiated by resetting (toggle Tpl (RESET) to TP2 (DCOM) the HMPG with the TEST switch (on the NLCB) in the UP position. The entire test is completed in approx. 20 seconds. At its completion, status information will be printed out at the door-mounted printer. In the present product, the entire self-test routing is executed; however," provisions for executing small sections of the code are in place.
Upon completion of the self-test, the drive will operate in the gate-test-mode. To rerum to normal operation, the NLCB's test switch must be returned to the normal position and the HMPG must be reset (Toggle TP1 (RESET) to TP2 (DCOM)).
CAUTION Self test exercises the output relays; therefore, the output terminal boards should be disconnected form the I/O module, and/or source and load breakers should be racked-out drive stopped.
II NOTE If the VBol setting at NCCD is greater than 10.5 Vdc then set down to 10.5Vdc before executing self test. Return to original setting when self test is done.
- 3. DIAGNOSING FAILURES As mentioned above, failure of any of the self test procedures will produce a diagnostic message on the door-mounted printer. The format of the diagnostic message is:
DATE TIME FAILED (aabb) DURING TEST OF: aa= TEST NUMBER description of test bb=SUBTEST NUMBER PROBLEM: problem statement POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
solution 1 .
solution 2 .
solution 3 Usually, a failure can easily be diagnosed by the problem statement. At least on solution will be suggested in the print out. It is suggested that trouble-shooting be performed at the PWB level ( Replace the PWB not its component).
Although the diagnostic messages may indicate more specific failures, it is not recommended the PWB components be replaced or repaired (always write or attach the diagnostic to the card).
The TEST NUMBER and SUB-TEST NUMBER uniquely define a failure within the self test procedure. The TEST

The cause of the shutdown will be displayed on the printer terminal located on the, control panel door. If more than one fault has occurred, the fault finder will store and print the subsequent faults (up to 10 total).
To reset the control after a fault condition, it is necessary to press the reset switch on the HLCB card in the SEM/MEM or the reset pushbutton on the control panel door. But first record the fault/alarm/relay status, and I/O states. If the fault condition is clear, the fault light will go out after a door reset, hnd stay out when the reset is completed.
Consult the system elementary ladder diagram for a complete list of faults. Most of the faults are standard and are defined in the following paragraphs. along with suggested corrective action.
MASTER SLAVE UNBALANCE - Indicates that there is an unbalance between the torque or excitation current commands for the two channels of a dual channel drive. See TORQUE, EXCITATION COMMAND UNBALANCE alarms for details. This fault is an optional feature selected by setting bit 10 of tuneup SQOPT2 to a 1 .
COOLANT PRESSURE LOW OR PUMP LOSS - Indicates low differential coolant pressure across power converter bridges or loss of both pump starters for an excessive time period. In the absence of other indications check for presence of pump power, that pumps are rotating, and check operation of differential pressure switch.
SOURCE LOW LINE - Indicates that the source voltage has dropped below 70% of nominal for an excessive period of time. This function will also detect single phasing of the source. Time limit is set by protective tuneup parameter PTSUVT. Investigateg reason for loss of voltage.

GT0-RQ) GEH-6014 NCCD card and the feedback is derived from the load bridge attenuators on the NATL board. This ahrm indicates that
>e dc link has been interrupted while there is still current in the link inductor. This can happen due to simultaneous turn ff of all GTOs, an open circuit in the inverter bridge, or an open circuit in the ac buses to the motor.
The following should be checked:
- 1) Perform control self test.
- 2) Perform gate test mode to insure that all GTO gating signals are present.
- 3) Check for loose bus or cable connections in the bridges, dc inductor circuit, capacitor panel, and all output power cables.
- 4) Check for proper wipe or open poles on the output breaker / contactor, ifsupplied.
SOURCE-OVERCURRENT, SOURCE BACKUP OVERCURRENT - Indicates an overcurrent as detected by the source bridge accts. These faults are symptoms of many possible failures. The backup overcurrent is a hardware protective backing up the software overcurrent protective. The current feedback signals and the hardware overcurrent detectors are located on the NLIB boards in the, electronics module. Check all SCRs and GTOs for shorts, perform control self test, and perform gate test; LOAD OVERCURRENT, LOAD BACKUP OVERCURRENT - Same as above except detected from inverter bridge accts.
SOURCE, LOAD PLL - Indicates that the source or load phase locked loop has lost lock with the source or load ~,,
voltages, respectively. The source and load PLLs operate from crossovers of the source and load integrated terminal,.
aitages (flux). This failure is most often caused by a failure in the, voltage feedback attenuator circuits in the bridges.
erform control self test, gate test, check NATL attenuator boards for open connectors or resistors, and check continuity of associated circuits.
STACK OVERFLOW - Indicates that the microprocessor is unable to complete its,interrupt driven operations in a normal amount of time, resulting in excessive stack buildup. Proceed as for MICROPROCESSOR ALARM.
SOURCE DIFF CURRENT,- On drives with a series 12 pulse source, this fault indicates an unbalance between the
""source bridge currents. Since the bridges are in series their currents'should be balanced at all times. Perform self test, perform gate test, check for shorted SCRs, and check acct circuits for open wires or connectors.
SOURCE OVERVOLTAGE - Indicates source voltage is excessive (threshold typically set at 1.2 p.u.). Investigate reason for excessive voltage. If no reason found, perform control self test.
P70 GATfNG SUPPLY UNDERVOLTAGE - Indicates loss of 70 volt gating supply for source bridge(s) or a blown fuse in one of the HPTK gating boards. Output of P70 supply should be approximately 85 vdc when drive is not running. Check HPTK fuses and input / output fuses for 70 volt gating supply.
P105 SUPPLY UNDERVOLTAGE - Indicates loss of 105 vdc supply for i/o module contact input circuits. Check voltage at i/o module, check for external shorts in field wiring, and replace the 105 vdc supply (on i/o module) if necessary.
LOAD OVERVOLTAGE - Indicates excessive output volta e (threshold typically set at 1.2 p.u.). Perform self test and recheck tuneup set tings.
VERSPEED - Actually an indication of overfrequency derived from the hardware "speed" circuitry on the NLCB oard. The NSFC and NLIB boards are involved as well. Normally set to 1.05 p.u. of maximum drive frequency.

Check chopper supply input voltage, output voltage, and protective fuses. Note that failure of the chopper circuit on the NHFA board can result 'in low output voltage, especially under load.- Check P28 volt=bus on electronic module power supply. Since this supply is unregulated, the power supply transformer adjustment tap should be set to give the maximum output voltage (approximately 31 vdc).
XDCD CONFIGURATION ERROR - Indicates a mismatch between the number of. GTOs programmed into DRVCFG setting 'and'the analog signal returned from the'XDCD board (on control panel sidewall) to the NCCD board indicating the number of GTO gate driver circuits per brid e Ie . Perform self test and check that the number of GTOs programmed into DRVCFG is correct.
SOURCE REVERSE PHASE SEQUENCE - Indicates incorrect phase sequence as sensed on source bridge ac buses.
Depends on voltage feedback signals from the source attenuators beginning with the NATL board in the source bridge.
DESYNC FAILURE - On drives with synchronize / bypass capability, this fault indicates that the bypass breaker /
contactor has failed to open when commanded to do so during a transfer from across the line to variable speed operation (de-synchronization).
GTO GATE DRIVER FAULT - Indicates failure ot'a GTO or GTO ate driver in the load bridge. Observe LEDs on the XDCD card on the control panel sidewall and the red LEDs on the GTO ~ate drivers to locate the failed unit(s).
Check GTOs for shorts with a DVM. If any shorted GTOs are tound, check the associated snubber diodes for shorts. If no shorted GTOs are found. check flber optic cables / connections and / or chan e out ate driver cards. and perform self test.

- 2) Check that incoming line voltage is not low.
P70 GATING SUPPLY VOLTAGE DIP - Indicates a temporary dip of 70 volt gating supply for the source bridge SCR firing circuits. An undervoltage detector is built into each of the HPTK gating boards in the source bridge. Unless this alarm is followed up by a GATING SUPPLY UNDERVOLTAGE FAULT, it is probably due to a.control power dip.
The appropriate action in this case is to reset and continue.
"A" channel (master)
TORQUE COMMAND UNBRACE - On dual channel drives, the torque command from the speed regulator is sent as a torque reference to the "B" channel (slave) as a +/- 10 volt analog signal. The "B" channel performs an a/d conversion on the torque sisal so that it can be used by the digital control. The digitized sinai is also converted-back to analog +/- 10 volt and sent back to the A" channel (master). The master digitizes the returned signal and compares it with the signal being sent. If there is a mismatch of more than 100 counts (.1 PU), an alarm is generat-ed.
'n the event this alarm is generated, the following checks should be made:
- 1) Perform self test of both channels at the earliest convenience.
- 2) Check continuity of interconnecting wiring between drive channels.
- 3) Check for loose ribbon cable connectors on electronics module and i/o module.
, Replace the NISA card in the electronics module.
EXCITATION COMMAND UNBALANCE - Same as TORQUE COMMAND UNBALANCE except that the signal is the command for motor excitation (magnetizing) current originating from the "A" channel (master) flux regulator.
MOTOR OVERTEMPERATURE - This is an optional alarm indication of motor overtemp from an externally supplied monitor.
CHOPPER POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE DIP - Indicates 120 vac, 400 Hz output from the chopper power supply or the 28 vdc from the electronic module supply is low. Check chopper supply input voltage, output voltage, and protective fuses. Note that failure of the chopper circuit on the NHFA board can result in low output voltage, especially when under load. Check P28 volt bus on electronic module power supply. Since this supply is unregulated, the power supply transformer adjustment tap (located in the power supply) should be set to give the maximum output voltage (approxi-mately 31 vdc).
l 7-12. GATE-TEST-MODE 7-12.1. General. The gate test mode allows off-line testing of much of the analog signal conditioning, microprocessor firing control, and gate pulse generation circuitry. In the gate-test-mode,a local test oscillator supplies 3 phase, approxi-mately 60 Hz signals in place of the attenuated bus signals from the source and load bridges. The electronic control can then lock onto these signals and generate signals to "dry fire" the thyristors in both bridges. Thyristor gate pulses may
'~en be examined for proper magnitude and phasing. Firing may be adjusted between advance and retard limit for each age. In the gate-test-mode, the control produces pulse train firing.
perform the following g tests, a dual channel oscilloscope with voltage probes and a current probe is required.

2-94 System Operation S GFK-0265 G t'O Data Mapping iscrete inputs and outputs are stored as bits in the BCP Bit Cache memory. Analog I/O is stored in the application RAM allocated for that purpose. Analog data is always stored in the demultiplexed state, with each channel requiring one word (16 bits).
Default Conditions T:
Upon power-up, Model 70 discrete input modules 'default to the first input on the module not interrupt- bi ing and the input filter being slow speed. The configuration utility provides the ability to specify that the first input may be an interrupt input and for the fil'ter speedto be fast or slow. If changed by the. user, new defaults are applied when the board is configured by the CPU during the power-up process or whenever else the module may go through configuration.
Model 70 discrete output modules default to all outputs off. The configuration utility provides the ability to specify whether the CPU transitions from RUN/ENABLED to RUN/DISABLED or STOP CI modes. It also applies this default information when the system halts.
Genius IlO t:.
Information relative to using Genius I/O in a Series 90-70 PLC system is presented in the following c."
paragraphs.. For specific information on Genius I/O block types, configuration, and setup, refer to the Genius I/O System User's Manual, GEE-90486.
~
enius I/O Bus Configuration C he Bus Controller used in the Series 90-70 PLC controls a single Genius I/O bus. 'ny type of Genius I/O block may be attached to the bus.
In the I/O fault table, the rack, slot bus, module, and I/O point number are given for a fault. Bus number one refers to the bus on the single-channel GBC.
Genius I/O Data Mapping Genius I/O discrete inputs and outputs are stored as bits in the Bit Cache memory. Genius I/O analog data is stored in the application RAM allocated for that purpose (%AI and %AQ). Analog data is always stored one channel per one word (16 bit).
T An analog grouped module consumes (in the input and output data memories) only th~-amount of data SL space required for the actual inputs and outputs. For example, the Genius I/O 115 VAC Grouped Ig Analog Block, IC660CBA100, has four inputs and two outputs; it consumes four words of Analog Input T
memory (%AI) and two words of Analog Output memory.
cl A discrete grouped module, each point of which is configurable with the Hand-Held Monitor (HHM) to bi be input, output, or output with feedback, consumes an amount in both discrete input memory (%I) and discrete output memory (%Q) equal to its physical size. Therefore, the 8 I/O 115 VAC Discrete I/
Grouped Block (IC660CBD100) requires 8 bits in the %I memory and 8 bits in the %Q memory, regardless of how the block is configured.
t II "4'.
4gi, 4"~ (+4~,"<
System Operation Dn65 oFK-0265 There are four Genius I/O blocks assigned to the analog memories:
he o 6-Channel Analog Grouped Block.
- e, i 6-Channel Thermocouple Block.
i 6-Channel RTD Block.
~ 4-Channel Strain Gauge/mV Analog Input Block.
The Thermocouple, RTD and Strain Gauge blocks are also referred to as Low-Level Analog Input blocks.
1e
- r, or Analog Grouped Block The Analog Grouped block contains four analog input channels and two analog output channels. When I
>p a block gets its turn on the Genius I/O Bus, it broadcasts the data for all four input channels in one broadcast control message. Then, when the Bus Controller gets its turn, it sends the data for both output channels to the block in a directed control message.
Low-I.evel Analog Blocks
~a Unlike the Analog Grouped block, the low-level analog blocks are input-only blocks. All have six channels except the Strain-Gauge block,.which has four.
ie Default Conditions
'Genius I/O blocks have a number of default. conditions that.may be set.using. the Genius I/O Hand-Held is Monitor. These defaults include
~ Report faults.
~ Range select.
~ Analog input and output scaling.
~ Input filter time.
~ Alarm input mode.
~ Output hold last state.
.'s ~ Output default.
These defaults are stored in EEPROM in the block itself. The Series 90-70 PLC configuration utility supports.the changing of only a small subset of these defaults. For more information, refer to the Genius I/O System User's Manual, GEK-90486.
Through the COMMREQ function block, the application program can request the Bus Controller to change any default condition on a specific block. However, this change will only be accepted by the block if it is not in CONFIG PROTECT mode. If CONFIG PROTECT mode is set, only the Hand-Held Monitor can be used to change the defaults. The format of the COMMREQ function block for Genius I/O is described in the Genius Bus Controller User's Manual, GFK-0398.

2-56 System Operation GFK-0265 Diagnostic Data Collection Diagnostic data in a Series 90-70 PLC I/O 'system is obtained in one of two ways:
- 1. If an I/O module has an associated Bus Controller, then the Bus Controller provides the module's diagnostic data for the CPU.
- 2. If an I/O module is a Model 70 I/O module, then the CPU's I/O Scanner subsystem generates the diagnostic bits based on the data provided by the I/O module.
Diagnostic data is not maintained by the Series 90-70 PI.C for foreign I/O (not GE Fanuc) modules.
Any diagnostic information provided by those boards must be specifically accessed by the application program using the VME Read and VME Write function blocks.
The diagnostic bits are derived from the diagnostic data sent from the I/O modules to their I/O controllers. Diagnostic bits always indicate the current fault status of the associated module. Bits are set when faults occur and are cleared when faults are cleared.
Discrete I/O Diagnostic Information Diagnostic information is maintained by the Series 90-70 PLC for each discrete I/O point. Two memory blocks are allocated in application RAM for discrete diagnostic data. One is associated with %I memory and the other with %Q memory. One bit of diagnostic memory is associated with each I/O point. This bit indicates the validity of the associated I/O data. "Each discrete point has a fault, reference available that may be interrogated using two special. contacts: a fault contact (-[FAULT]-)and a no-fault 'contact
(-[NOFLT]-). The PLC only collects this fault data if enabled to do so through the configuration software. The following table shows the state of the fault and no-fault contacts.
Condition fFAULTJ [NOFLTl Fault Present ON Fault Absent OFF ON
Analog I/O Diagnostic Data Diagnostic information is made available by the PLC CPU for each analog channel associated with Model 70 analog input modules, Model 70 analog output modules, Genius analog blocks, and Subnet objects. Two memory blocks are allocated for analog diagnostic data. One is associated with %AI analog input memory and the other with %AQ analog output memory. One byte of diagnostic memory is allocated for each analog I/O channel. Since each analog I/O channel uses two bytes of %AI and
%AQ'emory, the diagnostic memory is half the size of the data memory.
The analog diagnostic data contains both diagnostics and process data with the process data being the High Alarm and Low Alarm bits. The diagnostic data is referenced with the -[FAULT]-and -[NOFLT]-
contacts. The process bits are referenced with the -[HIALR]-and -[LOALR]-contacts. The memory allocation for analog diagnostic data is one byte per word of analog input and analog output allocated by the user. When an analog fault contact is referenced in the application program, the PLC does an Inclusive OR on all the bits in the diagnostic byte except the process bits. The alarm contact is closed if any diagnostic bit is ON and OFF, only if all bits are OFF.

3.4 Fault Explanation and Correction 6FK-0265 Fault Response Fault. response refers to the ability of a fault to have its fault action changed. Those faults which can have their fault action changed are called configurable faults. Those which cannot are called non-configurable, faults. Non-configurable faults are either fatal or informational. Also, non-configurable faults do not cause application available references to be set and cannot have alarm blocks associated with the detection of the fault. Some non-configurable faults also have other effects associated with them. Generally, these effects control the changing of the CPU's execution mode
{STOP, RUN/DISABLED, RUN/ENABLED). An example of such an effect is the disabling of I/O when a NULL System Configuration is detected in the system.
PLC Fault Table The PLC fault table displays PLC faults such as password violations, PLC/configuration mismatches, parity errors, and communications errors. For example:

Some faults can occur because random access memory on either the PLC CPU board or the expansion memory board has failed. These same faults may also occur because the system has been powered off and the battery voltage is (or was) too low to maintain memory. To avoid excessive duplication of instructions'when corrupted memory may be a cause of, the error, the correction simply states:
Perform the corrections for Cor upted Memory.
This means:
- l. If the system has been powered off, replace the battery. Battery voltage may be insufficient to maintain memory contents.
- 2. Replace the expansion memory board. --Integrated. circuits on, the, memory board may be failing.
