Introduction What Is Fault-Tolerant Control?
A fault-tolerant control system identi-fies and compensates for failed control system elements and allows repair while continuing an assigned task without process interruption. A high-integrity control system such as the Tricon' controller is used in critical process applications that require a significant degree of safety and avail-ability.
What Is the Tricon Controller?
The Tricon is a state-of-the art controller that provides fault tolerance by means of Triple-Modular Redundant (TMR) architecture. TMR integrates three isolated, parallel control systems and extensive diagnostics in one control system. The system uses two-out-of-three voting to provide high-integrity, error-free, uninterrupted process operation.
The Tricon controller uses three iden-tical channels. Each channel indepen-dently executes the control program in parallel with the other two channels.
Specialized hardware/software voting mechanisms qualify and verify all digital inputs and outputs from the field, while analog inputs are subject to a mid-value selection process.
Because each channel is isolated from the others, no single-point failure in any channel can pass to another. If a hard-ware failure occurs on one channel, the other channels override it. Meanwhile, the faulting module can easily be removed and replaced, while the controller is online, without inter-rupting the process.
Setting up control programs is simpli-fied with the triplicated Tricon system, because it operates as a single control system from the users point of view.
The user terminates sensors and actua-tors at a single wiring terminal and programs the Tricon controller with one set of control program logic. The Tricon controller manages the rest!
Extensive diagnostics on each channel, module, and functional circuit immedi-ately detect and report operational faults by means of indicators or alarms.
All diagnostic fault information is accessible by the control program and the operator. The program or the oper-ator can use diagnostic data to modify The Tricon Fault-Tolerant Controller 01-9302048-MM-001 349 of 1037
2 Introduction control actions or direct maintenance procedures.
Other key features of the Tricon controller that ensure the highest possible system integrity are:
Ability to operate with three, two, or one Main Processors before shutdown Fully implemented and transparent triplication Comprehensive system diagnostics Complete range of I/O modules Dual and single I/O modules for safety-critical points with a limited need for availability Remote I/O up to 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) away from the MPs Simple, online module repair Unsurpassed reliability and availability What Are Typical User Applications?
Each day the Tricon controller supplies increased safety, reliability, and avail-ability to a worldwide installed base.
The following are a few typical applica-tions. For more information on how a Tricon controller can add value to your applications, ask your sales representa-tive for additional documentation and customer references.
Emergency Safety Shutdown (ESD)
The Tricon controller provides contin-uous protection for safety-critical units in refineries, petrochemical/chemical plants, and other industrial processes.
For example, in reactor and compressor units, plant-trip signalsfor pressure, product feed rates, expander pressure equalization and temperatureare monitored, and shutdown actions taken if an upset condition occurs. Traditional shutdown systemsimplemented with mechanical or electronic relays provide shutdown protection but can also cause dangerous nuisance trips.
The Tricon controller increases system integrity, providing automatic detection and verification of field sensor integ-rity, integrated shutdown and control functionality, and direct connection to the supervisory data highway for continuous monitoring of safety-crit-ical functions.
Boiler Flame Safety Process steam boilers function as a crit-ical component in most refinery appli-cations. Protection of the boiler from upset conditions, safety interlock for normal startup and shutdown, and flame-safety applications are combined by one integrated Tricon system. In traditional applications, these functions had to be provided by separate, non-integrated components. But with the fault-tolerant, fail-safe Tricon controller, the boiler operations staff can use a critical resource more produc-tively while maintaining safety at or above the level of electromechanical protection systems.
Turbine Control Systems The control and protection of gas or steam turbines requires high integrity as well as safety. The continuous oper-ation of the fault-tolerant Tricon controller provides the turbine operator with maximum availability while main-taining equivalent levels of safety.
Speed control as well as start-up and shutdown sequencing are implemented in a single integrated system. Unsched-uled outages are avoided by using hot-spares for the I/O modules. If a fault occurs in a module, a replacement module is automatically activated without operator intervention.
Offshore Fire and Gas Protection The protection of offshore platforms from fire and gas threats requires continuous availability as well as reli-ability. The Tricon controller provides this availability through online replace-ment of faulty modules. Faults in indi-vidual modules, field wiring, and sensors are managed automatically by built-in diagnostics. Analog fire and gas detectors are connected directly to the Tricon, eliminating the need for trip amps. An operator interface monitors fire and gas systems as well as diagnos-tics for the Tricon controller and its attached sensors. Traditional fire and gas panels can be replaced with a single integrated system, saving costly floor space while maintaining high levels of safety and availability.
What Is TriStation 1131?
TriStation' 1131 Developer's Workbench is an integrated tool for developing, testing and documenting control programs that execute in the Tricon controller. The TriStation 1131 software complies with the IEC 61131 International Standard for Programmable Controllers and follows the Microsoft Windows guidelines for graphical user interfaces.
What About Communication Capabilities?
Optional modules enable the Tricon controller to communicate with other Triconex controllers and with other hosts such as:
Modbus masters and slaves Distributed Control Systems (DCS)
Operator workstations Host computers using Ethernet (802.3) protocol For more information, see Communi-cation Capabilities on page 67.

TheoryofOperation Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) architecture ensures fault tolerance and provides error-free, uninterrupted control in the presence of either hard failures of components or transient faults from internal or external sources.
Every I/O module houses the circuitry for three independent channels. Each channel on the input modules reads the process data and passes that informa-tion to its respective Main Processor.
The three Main Processors communi-cate with each other using a proprietary high-speed bus system called the TriBus.
Once per scan, the Main Processors synchronize and communicate with their neighbors over the TriBus. The TriBus votes digital input data, compares output data, and sends copies of analog input data to each Main Processor. The Main Processors execute the control program and send outputs generated by the control program to the output modules. The Tricon controller votes the output data on the output modules as close to the field as possible to detect and compen-sate for errors that occur between the Main Processor and the final output driven to the field.
Each I/O slot can contain two identical I/O modules, which means if a fault is detected on one module, control is automatically switched to the healthy module. A faulty module can also be replaced online when only one module is installed in the slot. In this case, a healthy module is inserted in the spare slot and the control is switched to this module, which allows the faulty module to be pulled and sent for repair.
Main Processor Modules A Tricon controller contains three Main Processor modules. Each Main Processor controls a separate channel of the system and operates in parallel with the other Main Processors. A dedi-cated I/O Processor on each Main Processor manages the data exchanged between the Main Processor and the I/O modules. A triplicated I/O bus, located on the chassis backplane, extends from chassis to chassis by means of I/O bus cables.
As each input module is polled, the appropriate channel of the I/O bus transmits new input data to the Main Processor. The input data is assembled into a table in the Main Processor and is stored in memory for use in the hard-ware voting process.
The individual input table in each Main Processor is transferred to its neigh-boring Main Processors over the TriBus. During this transfer, hardware voting takes place. The TriBus uses a direct memory access programmable device to synchronize, transmit, vote, and compare data among the three Main Processors.
If a disagreement occurs, the signal value found in two out of three tables prevails, and the third table is corrected accordingly. One-time differences which result from sample timing variations are distin-guished from a pattern of differing data. Each Main Processor main-tains data about necessary correc-tions in local memory. Any disparity is flagged and used at the end of the scan by the Tricon controller built-in fault analyzer routines to deter-mine whether a fault exists on a particular module.
The Main Processors put corrected data into the control program. The 32-bit main microprocessor executes the control program in parallel with the neighboring Main Processor modules.
The control program generates a table of output values which are based on the table of input values according to customer-defined rules built into the control program. The I/O Processor on Input Leg A

4 Theory of Operation each Main Processor manages the transmission of output data to the output modules by means of the I/O bus.
Using the table of output values, the I/O Processor generates smaller tables, each corresponding to an individual output module in the system. Each small table is transmitted to the appro-priate channel of the corresponding output module over the I/O bus. For example, Main Processor A transmits the appropriate table to Channel A of each output module over I/O Bus A.
The transmittal of output data has priority over the routine scanning of all I/O modules. The I/O Processor manages the data exchanged between the Main Processors and the communi-cation modules using the communica-tion bus which supports a broadcast mechanism.
Main Processors receive power from dual Power Modules and power rails in the Main Chassis. A failure on one Power Module or power rail does not affect system performance.
Bus Systems and Power Distribution Three triplicated bus systems are etched on the chassis backplane: the TriBus, the I/O bus, and the communi-cation bus.
TriBus The TriBus consists of three indepen-dent serial links which synchronizes the Main Processors at the beginning of a scan, and performs either of these func-tions:
Transfers I/O, diagnostic, and communication data.
Compares data and flags disagreements of output or memory data from the previous scan.
An important feature of Tricon controller architecture is the use of a single transmitter to send data to both the upstream and downstream Main Processors, which ensures the same data is received by the upstream processor and down-stream processor.
I/O Bus Each I/O module transfers signals to or from the field through its associated field termination assembly. Two posi-tions in the chassis tie together as one logical slot. Termination cables are tied to panel connec-tors at the top of the backplane.
Each connection extends from the termination module to both active and hot-spare I/O modules, which means both the active module and the hot-spare module receive the same infor-mation from the field termina-tion wiring.
The triplicated I/O bus transfers data between the I/O modules and the Main Processors at 375 kilobits per second. The I/O bus is carried along the bottom of the back-plane. Each channel of the I/O bus runs between one Main Processor and the corresponding channels on the I/O module. The I/O bus extends between chassis using a set of three I/O bus cables.
Communication Bus The communication (COMM) bus runs between the Main Processors and the communication modules at 2 megabits per second.
Power Distribution Power for the chassis is distributed across two independent power rails and down the center of the backplane. Each module in the chassis draws power from both power rails through dual power regulators. There are four sets of power regulators on each input and output board: one set for each channel (A, B, and C) and one set for the status indicators.

5 Field Signals Each I/O module transfers signals to or from the field through its associated field termination panel. Two positions in the chassis tie together as one logical slot. The first position holds the active I/O module and the second position holds the hot-spare I/O module. Termi-nation cables are connected to the top of the backplane. Each connection extends from the termination panel to both active and hot-spare I/O modules.
Therefore, both the active module and the hot-spare module receive the same information from the field termination wiring.
Digital Input Modules The Tricon controller supports two basic types of Digital Input Modules:
TMR and Single. The following para-graphs describe Digital Input Modules communication processor located on the corresponding Main Processor. For example, Main Processor A interro-gates Input Table A over I/O Bus A.
On TMR Digital Input Modules, all critical signal paths are 100 percent triplicated for guaranteed safety and maximum availability. Each channel conditions signals independently and provides isolation between the field and the Tricon controller. (The Model 3504E High-Density Digital Input Module is an exceptionit has no channel-to-channel isolation.)
DC models of the TMR Digital Input Modules can self-test to detect stuck-ON conditions where the circuitry cannot tell whether a point has gone to the OFF state. Because most safety sys-tems use a de-energize-to-trip setting, the ability to detect the Off state is an important feature. To test for stuck-On inputs, a switch within the input cir-cuitry is closed to allow a zero input (Off) to be read by the optical isolation circuitry. The last data reading is frozen in the I/O Processor while the test is running.
On Single Digital Input Modules, only those portions of the signal path which are required to ensure safe operation are triplicated. Single modules are opti-mized for those safety-critical applica-tions where low cost is more important than maximum availability. Special self-test circuitry detects all stuck-On and stuck-Off fault conditions within the non-triplicated signal conditioners in less than half a second. This is a mandatory feature of a fail-safe system, which must detect all faults in a timely manner and, upon detection of an input fault, force the measured input value to the safe state. Because the Tricon is optimized for de-energize-to-trip appli-cations, detection of a fault in the input circuitry forces to Off (the de-energized state) the value reported to the Main Processors by each channel.
in general, followed by specifics for TMR and Single modules.
Every Digital Input Module houses the circuitry for three identical channels (A, B, and C). Although the channels reside on the same module, they are completely isolated from each other and operate independently. A fault on one channel cannot pass to another. In addition, each channel contains an 8-bit microprocessor called the I/O commu-nication processor, which handles communication with its corresponding Main Processor.
Each of the three input channels asyn-chronously measures the input signals from each point on the input module, determines the respective states of the input signals, and places the values into input tables A, B, and C respectively.

6 Theory of Operation Digital Output Modules There are four basic types of Digital Output Modules: dual, supervised, DC voltage and AC voltage.
The following paragraphs describe Digital Output Modules in general, followed by specifics for the four types.
Every Digital Output Module houses the circuitry for three identical, isolated channels. Each channel includes an I/O micropro-cessor which receives its output table from the I/O communication processor on its corresponding Main Processor. All of the Digital Output Modules, except the dual DC modules, use a patented quadruplicated output circuitry, referred to as Quad Voter, which votes on the individual output signals just before they are applied to the load. This voter circuitry is based on parallel-series paths which pass power if the drivers for channels A and B, or channels B and C, or channels A and C command them to closein other words, 2-out-of-3 drivers voted On. The quadru-plicated voter circuitry provides multiple redundancy for all critical signal paths, guaranteeing safety and maximum availability.
Each type of Digital Output Module executes a particular Output Voter Diag-nostic (OVD) for every point. Loop-back on the module allows each micropro-cessor to read the output value for the point to determine whether a latent fault exists within the output circuit.

7 Analog Input Modules On an Analog Input Module, each of the three channels asynchro-nously measures the input signals and places the results into a table of values. Each of the three input tables is passed to its associated Main Processor module using the I/O bus. The input table in each Main Processor is transferred to its neighbors across the TriBus.
The middle value is selected by each Main Processor, and the input table in each Main Processor is corrected accord-ingly. In TMR mode, the mid-value data is used by the control program; in duplex mode, the average is used.
Each Analog Input Module is automatically calibrated using multiple reference voltages read through the multiplexer. These voltages determine the gain and bias that are required to adjust readings of the analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
Analog Input Modules and termination panels are available to support a wide variety of analog inputs, in both isolated and non-isolated versions: 0-5 VDC, -5 to +5 VDC, 0-10 VDC, 4-20 mA, thermocouples (types K, J, T, E),
and resistive thermal devices (RTDs).
Analog Output Module The Analog Output Module receives three tables of output values, one for each channel from the corresponding Main Processor. Each channel has its own digital-to-analog converter (DAC). One of the three channels is selected to drive the analog outputs.
The output is continuously checked for correctness by loop-back inputs on each point which are read by all three microprocessors. If a fault occurs in the driving channel, that channel is declared faulty and a new channel is selected to drive the field device. The designation of driving channel is rotated among the channels, so that all three channels are tested.
Field Terminations Various termination options are avail-able for field wiring of the Tricon chassis, including external termination panels (ETPs) and fanned-out cables.
An ETP is an electrically-passive printed circuit board to which field wiring is easily attached. An ETP passes input signals from the field to an input module or passes signals gener-ated by an output module directly to field wiring, thereby permitting removal or replacement of the input or output module without disturbing field wiring.
A fanned-out cable is a lower-cost alternative to an ETP when using Digital Input Modules or Digital Output Modules. One end of a fanned-out cable connects to the Tricon controller backplane and the other end provides 50 fanned-out leads, each individually labeled with a pin number that matches the connector signals.
Communication Modules By means of the communication modules described in this section, the Tricon controller can interface with Modbus masters and slaves, other Triconex controllers in a Triconex peer-to-peer network, external hosts on Ethernet networks, and Honeywell' and Foxboro distributed control systems (DCS). The Main Processors broadcast data to the communication modules across the communication bus. Data is typically refreshed every scan; it is never more than two scan-times old. For more information, see Communication Capabilities on page 67.
Tricon Communication Module (TCM)
The Tricon Communication Module (TCM) enables a Tricon controller to communicate with Modbus devices (masters or slaves), a TriStation 1131 PC, a network printer, other Triconex controllers, and other external devices on Ethernet networks.
Each TCM has four serial ports, two Ethernet network ports, and one debug port (for Invensys use).

8 Theory of Operation A single Tricon controller supports up to four TCMs, which reside in two logical slots. This arrangement provides a total of sixteen serial ports and eight Ethernet network ports.
Enhanced Intelligent Communication Module (EICM)
The EICM enables a Tricon controller to communicate with Modbus devices (masters or slaves), with a TriStation 1131 PC, and with a printer. The four serial ports are uniquely addressed and can be used for Modbus or TriStation communication at speeds up to 19.2 kilobits per second. A single Tricon High-Density controller supports up to two EICM modules which reside in one logical slot. This arrangement provides a total of six Modbus ports, two TriSta-tion ports, and two printer ports.
Network Communication Module (NCM)
The NCM supports Ethernet (802.3) communication at 10 megabits per second for Triconex-proprietary proto-cols and applications.
The NCM also supports OPC Server which can be used by any OPC client.
In addition, users can write their own applications using the TSAA protocol.
The NCMG enables time synchroniza-tion to a GPS device.
Hiway Interface Module (HIM)
The HIM acts as an interface between a Tricon controller and a Honeywell TDC-3000 Distributed Control System (DCS) by means of the Hiway Gateway and Local Control Network (LCN). The HIM enables higher-order devices, such as computers and operator worksta-tions, to communicate with the Tricon.
Safety Manager Module (SMM)
The SMM acts as an interface between a Tricon controller and a Honeywell Universal Control Network (UCN), one of three principal networks of the TDC-3000 DCS. The SMM appears to the TDC-3000 as a safety node on the Universal Control Network (UCN),
allowing the Tricon controller to manage process-critical points within the overall TDC-3000 environment.
The SMM transmits all Tricon aliased data and diagnostic information to TDC-3000 operator workstations in display formats that are familiar to Honeywell operators.
Advanced Communication Module (ACM)
The ACM acts as an interface between a Tricon controller and a Foxboro Intel-ligent Automation (I/A) Series DCS.
The ACM appears to the Foxboro system as a safety node on the I/A Series Nodebus, allowing the Tricon controller to manage process-critical points within the overall I/A DCS envi-ronment. The ACM transmits all Tricon aliased data and diagnostic information to I/A operator workstations in display formats that are familiar to Foxboro operators.

9 HART Communication Highway Addressable Remote Trans-ducer protocol (HART') is a bi-direc-tional industrial field communication protocol used to communicate between intelligent field instruments and host systems over 4-20 mA instrumentation wiring. Invensys offers these compo-nents to enable HART communication between HART devices in the field and Configuration and Asset Management Software running on a PC:
Model 2770H HART Analog Input Interface Module Model 2870H HART Analog Output Interface Module Power Modules Each Tricon chassis houses two Power Modules arranged in a dual-redundant configuration. Each module derives power from the backplane and has inde-pendent power regulators for each channel. Each can support the power requirements for all the modules in the chassis in which it resides, and each feeds a separate power rail on the chassis backplane. The Power Modules have built-in diagnostic circuitry which checks for out-of-range voltages and over-temperature conditions. A short on a channel disables the power regu-lator rather than affecting the power bus.

SystemConfiguration A Tricon system is composed of a Main Chassis and up to 14 Expansion or Remote Expansion (RXM) Chassis.
The maximum system size is 15 chassis supporting a total of 118 I/O modules (maximum including spares), interface modules, and communication modules that interface with OPC clients, Modbus devices, other Tricon control-lers, and external host applications on Ethernet (802.3) networks, as well as Foxboro and Honeywell distributed control systems (DCS).
The following sections provide guide-lines for chassis layout and system configuration.
Chassis Layout Two power supplies reside on the left side of all chassis, one above the other.
In the Main Chassis, the three Main Processors are immediately to the right.
The remainder of the chassis is divided into six logical slots for I/O and communication modules and one COM slot with no hot-spare position. Each logical slot provides two physical spaces for modules, one for the active module and the other for its optional hot-spare module.
The layout of an Expansion Chassis is similar to that of the Main Chassis, except that Expansion Chassis provide eight logical slots for I/O modules.
(The spaces used by the Main Proces-sors and the COM slot in the Main Chassis are now available for other purposes.)
The Main and Expansion Chassis are interconnected by means of triplicated A
B 01-9302048-MM-001 359 of 1037
12 System Configuration I/O bus cables. The maximum I/O bus cable length between the Main Chassis and the last Expansion Chassis is 100 feet (30 meters), but in restricted appli-cations the length can be greater.
(Please contact the Invensys Global Customer Support (GCS) center for assistance when configuring a system that exceeds 100 feet (30 meters) of I/O bus cable length.)
RXM Chassis are used for systems in which the total cable distance between the first chassis and the last chassis exceeds the distance which can be supported by copper. Each RXM Chassis houses a set of three RXM Modules in the same position as the Main Processors in the Main Chassis.
Six remaining logical slots are avail-able in an RXM Chassis and one blank (unused) slot.
Online Module Repair The logical slot arrangement of a Tricon chassis provides two approaches to the online repair of faulting modules:
the hot-spare method and online module replacement.
With the hot-spare method, a logical slot contains two identical I/O modules.
While one module is active, the other module is powered but inactive. The Tricon system cycles control between the two healthy I/O modules approx-imately every hour, so that each under-goes complete diagnostics on a regular basis. If a fault is detected on one module, the Tricon system automati-cally switches control to the other module, allowing the system to main-tain three healthy channels continu-ously. The faulty module can then be removed and replaced.
Alternatively, a module can be replaced online even when only one I/O module is normally installed in a logical slot. If a fault occurs, the Fault indicator turns on, but the module remains active on two channels. A replacement module is then inserted into the unused space in the slot. The Tricon system will grant control to this second I/O module after it passes a diagnostic test. Once the replacement I/O module becomes active, the faulty module can be removed. This repair method demon-strates the Tricon controllers ability to automatically transition from tripli-cated to dual control and back again without process interruption.
A Tricon system should include at least one hot-spare module in place for each type of I/O module in the system. With this arrangement, hot-spare modules are tested regularly and can be used for online module replacement anywhere in the system.
I/O Bus Connections The I/O Bus Ports figure shows the three sets of RS-485 I/O bus ports (IN and OUT) on each chassis. Additional chassis may branch out from the Main Chassis by means of the I/O bus ports, up to a maximum of 14. There are six portstwo sets of three for triplicated serial communication located on a panel in the upper left corner of the backplane. One set of three I/O bus cables is required for each Expansion Chassis, and for each RXM Chassis that houses a primary RXM Module set. (Remote RXM Chassis are connected to the primary RXM Chassis with fiber-optic cables.) Communica-tion across the I/O bus cables (and the RXM fiber-optic cables) is at 375 kilo-bits per second, the same rate as the internal I/O bus on the backplane of each chassis.

Each RXM Chassis must contain two Power Modules.
Each RXM Chassis provides six logical slots for I/O modules and one blank (unused) slot.
Communication Module Configuration Guidelines The following rules apply to the TCM, EICM, NCM, HIM, SMM, and ACM in a Tricon system:
A TriStation 1131 PC communicates with a Tricon controller through a TCM, EICM, NCM or ACM, so at least one of these modules must be installed in the Main Chassis or Chassis 2.
One logical slot is available for EICMs or ACMs, respectively.
Matched pairs of these modules can be installed in both the left and right positions of one logical slot.
Up to two logical slots can be configured for NCMs. Matched pairs of NCMs can be installed in the left and right positions of each logical slot. If only one logical slot is used, the slot can be in the Main Chassis or Chassis 2. If two logical slots are used, they must be Slot 6 and 7 in the Main Chassis, and Peer-to-Peer cannot be used.
Up to two logical slots can be configured for TCMs. Matched pairs of TCMs can be installed in the left and right positions of each logical slot, and they can be located in the Main Chassis or Chassis 2.
01-9302048-MM-001 362 of 1037
15 Up to three logical slots can be configured for SMMs. A matched pair of SMMs can be installed in the left and right positions of each logical slot. All three slots must be in the Main Chassis or Chassis 2.
Up to two logical slots can be configured for HIMs. Both slots must be in the Main Chassis.
The COM slot can be configured only for the EICM, TCM, or NCM.
You cannot install an NCM and a TCM in the same Tricon system.
You also cannot install an EICM and a TCM in the same system.
Model 4351A, 4351B, 4352A, and 4352B TCMs cannot be installed into a system with Model 4351 or 4352 TCMs, even if they are installed in different chassis.
If communication modules are housed in Chassis 2, this chassis must be connected directly to the Main Chassis using I/O COMM cables (Model 9001) rather than standard I/O bus cables.
Chassis 2 can be an I/O Expansion Chassis or a primary RXM Chassis.
Chassis Power Limitations To maintain the safety and reliability of the Tricon controller, each system must be configured for operation under a worst-case scenario. These circum-stances include operation with only one functional power supply at 140° F (60° C), ambient. (See Power Modules on page 32 for detailed specifications).
Under these conditions, the power supply is rated to deliver 175 watts. The table to the right lists the logic power consumption per module in watts.

29 Chassis Options A Tricon system is made up of one or more chassis assemblies which contain I/O and communication modules. The first chassis of a system is called the Main Chassis (Model 8110). To enlarge a system, Expansion Chassis (Model 8111 or 8121) and/or RXM Chassis (Model 8112) can be added. (See System Configuration on page 11 for details.)
I/O Expansion Bus Each chassis has six RS-485 I/O expan-sion bus ports at the top left corner of the backplane. There are two sets of ports for channels A, B, and C, providing for two triplicated serial communications paths between chassis.
One set of cables is required for each Expansion Chassis and for the RXM Chassis which houses the primary RXM Module set. The standard length of a cable set (Model 9000) is 6 feet longer cables are available if needed.
The triplicated I/O bus transfers data between the I/O modules and the Main Processors at 375 kilobits per second.
The communication bus runs between the Main Processors and the communi-cation modules at 2 megabits per second.
program. Attempts to modify program variables by a TriStation 1131 application, Modbus masters, or external hosts are rejected. However, a control program may call gated access functions to enable external host writes during a designated window of time.
PROGRAMFor program loading and checkout. Allows control of the Tricon system from the TriStation 1131 plat-form, including Download All and Download Changes. Also allows writes to program variables by external hosts.
STOPStops reading inputs, forces non-retentive digital and analog outputs to 0, and halts the control program.
(Retentive outputs retain the value they had before the keyswitch was turned to Stop.) The Stop setting can be used for installation and service of process-related equipment, but is not required for service of the Tricon controller.
REMOTEAllows writes to program variables by TriStation 1131 application and external hosts.
(Download All and Download Changes by the TriStation 1131 software are not allowed.) Modification of program logic is not allowed.
Keyswitch for System Control The Main Chassis has a four-position keyswitch which controls all the chassis in the system. The keyswitch setting is readable by Tricon control-lers, TriStation 1131 software, and the control programs. Switch settings are:

Each TCM contains four serial ports, two network ports, and one debug port (for Invensys use).
Each serial port is uniquely addressed and can be configured as a Modbus master or slave. Serial Port #1 supports either the Modbus or the Trimble GPS interface. Serial Port #4 supports either the Modbus or the TriStation interface.
Each TCM supports an aggregate data rate of 460.8 kilobits per second, for all four serial ports.
Any standard Modbus device can communicate with the Tricon controller through the TCM, provided that aliases are assigned to the Tricon variables.
If multiple Tricon systems are connected by means of NCMs, the time synchronization capability ensures a consistent time base for effective SOE time-stamping. See page 78 for more information.
Diagnostics Extensive diagnostics validate the health of each MP, I/O module and communication channel. Transient faults are recorded and masked by the hardware majority-voting circuit.
Persistent faults are diagnosed and the errant module is hot-replaced.
MP diagnostics perform these tasks:

For detailed specifications, see the Planning and Installation Guide for Tricon Systems.
Three MPs must be installed in the Main Chassis of every Tricon system.
Each MP independently communicates with its I/O subsystem and executes the user-written control program.
Sequence of Events (SOE) and Time Synchronization During each scan, the MPs inspect designated discrete variables for state changes known as events. When an event occurs, the MPs save the current variable state and time stamp in the buffer of an SOE block.

34 Product Specifications Alias numbers must also be used when host computers access the Tricon controller through other communica-tion modules. See Communication Capabilities on page 67 for more information.
TCM Models 4353 and 4354 have an embedded OPC server on NET 2, which allows up to 10 OPC clients to subscribe to data collected by the OPC Server. The embedded OPC Server supports the Data Access 2.05 standard and the Alarms and Events 1.10 stan-dard.
Each TCM contains two network portsNET 1 and NET 2. Models 4351A, 4351B, and 4353 have two copper Ethernet (802.3) ports and Models 4352A, 4352B, and 4354 have two fiber-optic Ethernet ports.
On TCM Models 4351A, 4351B, 4352A, and 4352B, NET 1 and NET 2 support the TCP/IP, Modbus TCP/IP Slave/Master, TSAA, TriStation, SNTP, and Jet Direct (for network printing) protocols. NET 1 also supports the Peer-to-Peer (UDP/IP) and Peer-to-Peer Time Synchronization protocols.
On TCM Models 4353 and 4354, NET 2 supports only the embedded OPC server, TriStation, and SNTP protocols, while NET 1 supports all of the listed protocols except the embedded OPC server.
A single Tricon system supports a maximum of four TCMs, which must reside in two logical slots. Different TCM Models cannot be mixed in one logical slot. Each Tricon system supports a total of 32 Modbus masters or slavesthis total includes network and serial ports. The hot-spare feature is not available for the TCM, though you can replace a faulty TCM while the controller is online.

35 Enhanced Intelligent Communication Module The Model 4119A Enhanced Intelligent Communication Module (EICM) allows the Tricon controller to commu-nicate with Modbus masters and slaves, the TriStation 1131 software, and printers.
For Modbus connections, the EICM user can select the RS-232 point-to-point interface for one master and one slave, or the RS-485 interface for one master and up to 32 slaves. The RS-485 network trunk can be one or two twisted-pair wires up to a maximum of 4,000 feet (1,200 meters).
Each EICM contains four serial ports and one parallel port which can operate concurrently. Each serial port can be configured as a Modbus master with up to seven Modbus masters per Tricon chassis. A single Tricon system supports a maximum of two EICMs, which must reside in one logical slot.
(The hot-spare feature is not available for the EICM, though you can replace a faulty EICM while the controller is online.) Each serial port is uniquely addressed and supports either the Modbus or TriStation interface. Modbus communication can be performed in either RTU or ASCII mode. The parallel port provides a Centronics interface to a printer.
Each EICM supports an aggregate data rate of 57.6 kilobits per second (for all four serial ports).
Programs for the Tricon controller use variable names as identifiers but Modbus devices use numeric addresses called aliases. Therefore an alias must be assigned to each Tricon variable name that will be read by or written to a Modbus device. An alias is a five-digit number which represents the Modbus message type and the address of the variable in the Tricon controller. An alias number is assigned in the TriStation 1131 software.
Any standard Modbus device can commu-nicate with the Tricon controller through the EICM, provided that aliases are assigned to the Tricon variables. Alias numbers must also be used when host computers access the Tricon controller through other communication modules, such as the NCM. See Communication Capabilities on page 67 for more infor-mation.

36 Product Specifications Safety Manager Module The Model 4409 Safety Manager Module (SMM) acts as an interface between a Tricon controller and a Honeywell Universal Control Network (UCN), one of three principal networks of the TDC-3000 Distributed Control System. Appearing to the Honeywell system as a safety node on the UCN, the SMM communicates process informa-tion at full network data rates for use anywhere on the TDC-3000. The SMM transmits Tricon aliased data (including system variables) and diagnostic infor-mation to operator workstations in display formats that are familiar to Honeywell operators.
The SMM makes the following func-tions available to the TDC-3000:
Handles critical I/O points and passes results to the DCS Processes Tricon controller alarms and propagates them to user-defined DCS destinations (consoles, printers, etc.)
Reads/writes aliased data to satisfy DCS requests Reads Tricon controller diagnostics for display by the DCS Write protection to lock out changes to the Tricon controller from all TDC-3000 sources Time synchronization from the DCS master clock Peer-to-Peer communication for plants with many Tricon controllers, each containing an SMMthe DCS can use shared data to alert downstream Tricon controllers of significant process changes Sequence of Eventstransmits Tricon controller event data to Universal Stations for display or History Modules for recording, to help determine the cause of plant trips and increase process up-time Hot-spare capability for uninterrupted communication with Honeywell networks SMM Specifications Model Number 4409 UCN ports 2 isolated (AC coupled)

37 Network Communication Module With a Model 4329 Network Commu-nication Module (NCM) installed, the Tricon controller can communicate with other Tricon controllers and with external hosts over Ethernet (802.3) networks. The NCM supports a number of Triconex proprietary protocols and applications as well as user-written applications, including those that use the TSAA protocol.
The NCMG module has the same func-tionality as the NCM, as well as the ability to synchronize time based on a GPS system. For more information, see the Communication Guide for Tricon Systems.
The NCM provides two BNC connectors as ports: NET 1 supports Peer-to-Peer and Time Synchronization protocols for safety networks comprised of Tricon controllers only.
NET 2 supports open networking to external systems using Triconex applications such as the TriStation 1131 software, SOE, OPC Server, and DDE Server or user-written applications. See Communication Capabilities on page 67 for more information about Triconex protocols and applications.
Two NCMs can reside in one logical slot of the Tricon chassis, but they function independently, not as hot-spare modules. External hosts can read or write data only to Tricon variables to which Alias numbers have been assigned. (See Enhanced Intelligent Communication Module on page 35 for more information about Aliases.)
The NCM is compatible with Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 electrical interface) and operates at 10 megabits per second. The NCM connects with external host computers by means of coaxial cable (RG58) at typical distances up to 607 feet (185 meters). Distances up to 2.5 miles (4,000 meters) are possible using repeaters and standard (thick-net or fiber-optic) cabling.
The Main Processors typically refresh data on the NCM once per scan.

38 Product Specifications Advanced Communication Module (ACM)
The Model 4609 Advanced Communi-cation Module (ACM) acts as an inter-face between a Tricon controller and a Foxboro Intelligent Automation (I/A)
Series system, appearing to the Foxboro system as a safety node on the I/A Series Nodebus. The ACM communicates process information at full network data rates for use anywhere on the I/A Series system, transmitting all Tricon aliased data (including system variables and system aliases) and diagnostic infor-mation to operator workstations in display formats that are familiar to Foxboro operators. The ACM makes the following functions available to the I/A Series:
Handles critical I/O points and passes results to the I/A Series using the Object Management Database (OMDB)
Processes Tricon controller alarms and propagates them to user-defined I/A Series destinations (consoles, printers, and so on)

39 Hiway Interface Module The Model 4509 Hiway Interface Module (HIM) acts as an interface between a Tricon controller and a Honeywell TDC-3000 control system by means of the Hiway Gateway and Local Control Network (LCN). The HIM can also interface with Honey-wells older TDC 2000 control system by means of the Data Hiway.
The HIM enables higher-order devices on the LCN or Data Hiway, such as computers and operator workstations, to communicate with the Tricon controller.
The HIM allows redundant BNC connections directly to the Data Hiway and has the same functional capacity as four extended Data Hiway Port (DHP) addresses.
The HIM provides eight Hiway addresses, implements the same slot structure as the DHP, and typically refreshes all data in less than 0.5 seconds. The hot-spare capability allows online replacement of a faulty module.

40 Product Specifications Remote Extender Module (RXM)
RXMs and chassis allow I/O modules to be located several kilometers from the Main Chassis. RXM sets, consisting of three identical modules, serve as repeaters and extenders of the Tricon I/O bus and provide ground loop isola-tion. A primary RXM set supports three remote locations by connecting to three remote RXM sets housed in a remote chassis. See System Configuration on page 11 regarding configurations that use RXMs.
RXM sets are available for fiber-optic cables with a communication rate of 375 kilobits per second. These sets provide maximum immunity against electro-static and electro-magnetic interference, and support configura-tions with optical modems and fiber-optic point-to-point cabling. Remote sites can be located as far as 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) from the primary site.
The figure at right shows uni-direc-tional cabling for three channels of a remote location. For each channel, one cable carries data transmitted from the primary RXM to the remote RXM, and the other cable carries data received by the primary RXM from the remote RXM. A pair of modules must be wired for each of the three channels, amounting to a total of six cables for each remote location.
Sample Wiring for One Remote Location NOTE: The selection and installation of fiber-optic cabling requires specialized knowledge, training and tools. Invensys recommends hiring a fiber-optic specialist to handle these tasks.

41 TMR Digital Input Modules Each TMR Digital Input (DI) module has three isolated input channels which independently process all data input to the module. A microprocessor on each channel scans each input point, compiles data, and transmits it to the Main Processors upon demand. Then input data is voted at the Main Proces-sors just prior to processing to ensure the highest integrity. All critical signal paths are 100 percent triplicated for guaranteed safety and maximum avail-ability. Each channel conditions signals independently and provides optical isolation between the field and the Tricon controller.
All TMR Digital Input Modules sustain complete, ongoing diagnostics for each channel. Failure of any diagnostic on any channel activates the module Fault indicator, which in turn activates the chassis alarm signal. The module Fault indicator points to a channel fault, not a module failure. The module is guaran-teed to operate properly in the presence of a single fault and may continue to operate properly with certain kinds of multiple faults.
Models 3502E, 3503E, and 3505E can self-test to detect stuck-On conditions where the circuitry cannot tell whether a point has gone to the Off state. Since most safety systems are set up with a de-energize-to-trip capability, the ability to detect Off points is an impor-tant feature. To test for stuck-On inputs, a switch within the input circuitry is closed to allow a zero input (Off) to be read by the optical isolation circuitry.
The last data reading is frozen in the I/O communication processor while the test is running.
All TMR Digital Input Modules support hot-spare capability, and require a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane. Each module is mechanically keyed to prevent improper installation in a configured chassis.

42 Product Specifications 64-Point Digital Input Modules Each 64-point Digital Input (DI) module has three isolated channels which independently process all data input to the module. A microprocessor on each channel scans each input point, compiles data and transmits it to the Main Processors on demand. Then input data is voted at the Main Proces-sors just prior to processing to ensure the highest integrity.
All Digital Input Modules sustain complete, ongoing diagnostics for each channel. A failure on any channel acti-vates the Fault indicator which in turn activates the chassis alarm. A TMR module is guaranteed to operate prop-erly in the presence of a single fault and may operate properly with certain kinds of multiple faults.
All Digital Input Modules support hot-spare modules and require a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane. Each module is mechanically keyed to prevent improper installation in a chassis.
The Model 3504E High-Density Digital Input Module continuously verifies the ability of the Tricon controller to detect transitions to the opposite state. On this TMR module, all critical signal paths are 100 percent triplicated for guaranteed safety and maximum availability. Each channel conditions signals independently between the field and the Tricon controller.
The Model 3564 Single Digital Input Module is optimized for safety-critical applications where low cost is more important than maximum availability.
On single modules, only those portions of the signal path which are required to ensure safe operation are triplicated.
Special self-test circuitry detects all stuck-On and stuck-Off fault conditions in less than half a second. If a single module detects an input fault, it reports that point as Off, which may cause a glitch during switch-over to a hot-spare module.

43 Pulse Input Module The Model 3511 Pulse Input (PI)
Module provides eight very sensitive, high-frequency inputs. It is optimized for use with non-amplified magnetic speed sensors common on rotating equipment such as turbines or compres-sors. The module senses voltage transi-tions from magnetic transducer input devices, accumulating them during a selected window of time (rate measure-ment). The resulting count is used to generate a frequency or RPM which is transmitted to the Main Processors. The pulse count is measured to 1 micro-second resolution.
The PI module includes three isolated input channels. Each input channel independently processes all data input to the module and passes the data to the Main Processors, which vote on the data to ensure the highest integrity.
Each module provides complete ongoing diagnostics on each channel.
Failure of any diagnostic on any channel activates the Fault indicator, which in turn activates the chassis alarm signal. The Fault indicator merely indicates a channel fault, not a module failure. The module is guaran-teed to operate properly in the presence of a single fault and may continue to operate properly with certain kinds of multiple faults. The Pulse Input Module supports hot-spare modules.
WARNING: The PI module does not provide a totalization capabilityit is optimized for measuring the speed of rotation equipment. For pulse totaliza-tion, see Model 3515 on page 44.
Relay Output Module The Model 3636R and 3636T Relay Output (RO) Modules are non-tripli-cated modules for use on non-critical points which are not compatible with high-side solid-state output switches.
An example is interfacing with annun-ciator panels. The Relay Output module receives output signals from the Main Processors on each of three channels.
The three sets of signals are then voted, and the voted data is used to drive the 32 individual relays.
Each output has a loopback circuit which verifies the operation of each relay switch independently of the pres-ence of a load, while ongoing diagnos-tics test the operational status of the module. Failure of any diagnostic acti-vates the Fault indicator, which in turn activates the chassis alarm.
The Relay Output module comes with normally open (NO) contacts. It supports hot-spare modules and requires a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane.

44 Product Specifications Pulse Totalizer Input Module The Model 3515 Pulse Totalizer Input (PTI) Module provides 32 individual 31-bit counters that operate indepen-dently. The counters are used with active-flow sensors or per-unit sensors to measure a quantity (count) which is transmitted to the Main Processors. At the time specified by the control program, the Main Processors clear a single counter or all counters.
The PTI module has three isolated input channels. Each input channel indepen-dently processes all input data and passes it to the Main Processors, where it is voted before processing to ensure the highest integrity.
Each PTI module provides complete ongoing diagnostics on each channel, including channel-to-channel count comparison. Failure of any diagnostic on any channel activates the Fault indi-cator, which in turn activates the chassis alarm. The Fault indicator points to a channel fault, not a module failure. The PTI module is guaranteed to operate properly in the presence of a single fault, and may continue to operate with certain kinds of multiple faults.
The PTI module can operate with or without a hot-spare module. If you use a hot-spare module, it re-educates all counter values from the active module.

45 TMR Digital Output Modules Each TMR Digital Output (DO) module receives output signals from the Main Processors on each of three channels. Each set of three signals is then voted by special quadruplicated output circuitry on the module. The circuitry produces one voted output signal and passes it to the field termina-tion. The quadruplicated voter circuitry provides multiple redundancy for all critical signal paths, guaranteeing safety and maximum availability.
Each TMR Digital Output Module has a voltage-loopback circuit which veri-fies the operation of each output switch independently of the presence of a load and determines whether latent faults All TMR Digital Output Modules support hot-spare capability, and require a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane.

46 Product Specifications 16-Point Supervised and 32-Point Supervised/Non-Supervised Digital Output Modules Designed for the most critical control programs, Supervised Digital Output (SDO) modules meet the needs of systems whose outputs remain in a single state for extended periods of time (in some applications, for years). An SDO module receives output signals from the Main Processors on each of three channels. Each set of three signals is then voted upon by a fully fault-tolerant quadruplicated output switch whose elements are power transistors, so that one voted output signal is passed to the field termination.
Each SDO module has voltage and current loopback circuitry coupled with sophisticated online diagnostics that verify the operation of each output switch, the field circuit and the pres-ence of a load. This design provides complete fault coverage without the need to influence the output signal.
The modules are called supervised because fault coverage is extended to include potential field problems. In other words, the field circuit is super-vised by the SDO module so that the following field faults can be detected:
Loss of power or blown fuse Open or missing load A field short resulting in the load being energized in error A shorted load in the de-energized state Failure to detect field voltage on any output point energizes the power alarm indicator. Failure to detect the presence of a load energizes the load alarm indi-cator.
All SDO modules support hot-spare modules and require a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller back-plane.

48 Product Specifications Dual Digital Output Module Dual Digital Output (DDO) modules receive output signals from the Main Processors along a single parallel or series path, and applies a 2-out-of-3 voting process individually to each switch. The switches produce one output signal which is then passed to the field termination. While the quadru-plicated output circuitry on TMR modules provides multiple redundancy for all critical signal paths, dual circuitry provides just enough redun-dancy to ensure safe operation. DDO modules are optimized for those safety-critical control programs where low cost is more important than maximum availability.
DDO modules have a voltage-loopback circuit which verifies the operation of each output switch independently of the presence of a load and determines whether latent faults exist. Failure of the detected field voltage to match the commanded state of the output point activates the LOAD/FUSE alarm indi-cator.
In addition, ongoing diagnostics are performed on each channel and circuit of a DDO module. Failure of any diag-nostic on any channel activates the Fault indicator, which in turn activates the chassis alarm signal. A dual module operates properly in the presence of most single faults and may operate properly with some kinds of multiple faults, but stuck-Off faults are an exception. If one of the output switches has a stuck-Off fault, the output goes to the Off state and a glitch may occur during switch-over to a hot-spare module.
DDO modules support hot-spare capa-bility, which allows online replacement of a faulty module. Each module is mechanically keyed to prevent improper installation in a configured chassis.
DDO modules require a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane. Digital outputs are designed to source the current to field devices, so field power must be wired to each output point on the field termination.

49 Analog Input Modules Analog Input (AI) Modules includes three independent input channels. Each input channel receives variable voltage signals from each point, converts them to digital values, and transmits the values to the three Main Processor modules on demand. In TMR mode, one value is then selected using a mid-value selection algorithm to ensure correct data for every scan.
Sensing of each input point is performed in a manner that prevents a single failure on one channel from Analog Input Modules require a sepa-rate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane.

Each set of data is then voted and a healthy channel is selected to drive the outputs.
Each module monitors its own current outputs (as input voltages) and main-tains an internal voltage reference to provide self-calibration and module health information.
Each channel on a module has a current loopback circuit which verifies the accuracy and presence of analog signals independently of load presence or channel selection. The modules design prevents a non-selected channel from driving an analog signal to the field. In addition, ongoing diagnostics are performed on each channel and circuit of the module. Failure of any diagnostic test deactivates the faulty channel and activates the Fault indi-cator and the chassis alarm. The module Fault indicator merely indicates a channel fault, not a module failure.
The module continues to operate prop-erly with as many as two channels failed. Open loop detection is provided by a LOAD indicator which activates if the module is unable to drive current to one or more outputs.
The module provides for redundant loop power sources with individual power and fuse indicators called PWR1 and PWR2. External loop power supplies for analog outputs must be provided by the user. A LOAD indi-cator activates if an open loop is detected on one or more output points.
PWR1 and PWR2 are on if loop power is present.
AO modules support hot-spare capa-bility, which allows online replacement of a faulty module.
AO modules require a separate external termination panel (ETP) with a cable interface to the Tricon controller backplane. Each module is mechanically keyed to prevent improper installation in a configured chassis.

52 Product Specifications Thermocouple Input Modules Thermocouple Input (TC) modules include three independent input chan-nels. Each input channel receives vari-able voltage signals from each point, performs thermocouple linearization and cold-junction compensation, and converts the result to degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.

54 Product Specifications HART Interface Modules Highway Addressable Remote Trans-ducer (HART) is an industry standard field bus protocol that superimposes a Frequency Key Shifted (FSK) signal onto the 4-20 mA loop. The Tricon Model 2071H HART Multiplexer Module that is incorporated into each of the HART Interface Modules capaci-tively couples the HART signal to the AI or AO signals. The HART signals are approximately +/-0.5 mA at 1,200 Only Tricon v10.4.x and later systems can use HART Interface Modules; earlier Tricon systems must upgrade to Tricon v10.4.x. The chassis require-ments for using HART Interface Modules in a system upgraded to Tricon v10.4.x differ depending on the original system version, as described in the Tricon Chassis Usage for HART Communication table.
and 2,200 Hz. These frequencies are high enough that the low-bandwidth loop is unaffected and the HART elec-tronics can impose and extract the HART signals easily.
HART communication through the HART multiplexer is separate from the Tricon system and is certified not to interfere with the 4-20 mA safety signals of the Analog Input and Analog Output Modules.

55 Aterminationpanelandassociatedcablepasssignalstoorfromthe field,permittingreplacementofI/OModuleswithoutdisturbing fieldwiring.
FieldTerminationOptions There are two general types of field termination products available from Invensys:
External termination panels Cables All termination panels and cables are built to withstand harsh industrial envi-ronments. The environmental specifi-cations for components used on these products are the same as for a Tricon chassis. (See General Environmental and EMC Specifications on page 27 for details.)
External Termination Panels An external termination panel (ETP) is an electrically-passive printed circuit board (PCB) to which field wiring is easily attached. A panel connector, terminal blocks and various compo-nents are mounted to the PCB and enclosed in a plastic housing. A termi-nation panel and associated cable pass input signals from the field directly to an input module, or pass output signals from an output module directly to field wiring. This arrangement permits the removal or replacement of I/O modules without disturbing field wiring.
External termination panels allow you to marshal field signals in a separate enclosure up to 99 feet (30 meters) from a Tricon chassis.
Standard termination panels are best for remote marshaling of field wiring where maximum flexibility, high density and simple maintenance is desired.
A standard termination panel consists of a PCB with all necessary compo-nentssuch as two-piece terminal blocks, resistors, fuses and blown-fuse indicatorsmounted on a DIN rail-compatible plastic housing. The housing snaps into mounting rails in accordance with DIN 50 022.
Compression terminals on the standard panel are designed for use with 24-to 12-gauge (0.3 mm2 to 2.1 mm2) wiring.
Some panels have an optional current-limiting series resistor, others have a fuse with a blown-fuse indicator, to protect the field wiring and field device.
Standard termination panels are pre-configured for specific applications.
For instance, the thermocouple input termination panel provides cold-junc-tion temperature sensors and can be ordered with upscale, downscale or programmable burnout detection. A standard termination panel for analog voltage inputs provides commoned signal returns, while the current-mode version has a precision resistor at each input point to convert current to voltage.
Each standard termination panel is packaged with a matched interface Tricon Chassis with External Termination Panels and Standard 10' Cables 01-9302048-MM-001 403 of 1037
56 Field Termination Options cable that connects the panel to the backplane of a Tricon chassis. A female connector at one end of the cable is keyed to match the male connector on the Tricon controller backplane. A male connector on the other end of the cable attaches to the standard termination panel. Two types of cables are avail-ableone that exits the Tricon controller backplane at a ninety-degree angle and one that exits at a zero-degree angle (straight, front-entry).
External termination panel model numbers that end with a Z contain zero-degree interface cables. Model numbers for ninety-degree configura-tions are referenced throughout this guide. It is implied that where a model number is referenced for a ninety-degree configuration, a zero-degree configuration also is available.
Zero-degree cables are designed to be used with G-Series Enclosures for Tricon controllers that have front access. For more information on G-Series Enclosures for Tricon Systems, see the G-Series Enclosures Product Specification Sheet, PSS Number: PSS 21H-2X8 B3, on the Invensys Global Customer Support (GCS) website at http://support.ips.invensys.com.
In addition to standard termination panels, there are other types of termina-tion panels, including:
Basic termination panels Hazardous location (nonincendive) termination panels Termination panels with interposing relays Bypass panels for digital inputs Termination panels with RTD/TC/AI input signal conditioning Termination panels for 3603B digital output modules Termination panels for 3806E analog output modules Basic Termination Panels Basic termination panels are a low-cost means of connecting field wiring to a Tricon controller. However, basic termination panels do not provide any components other than a 56-pin connector and terminal blocks. These two components are mounted on a DIN rail-compatible plastic housing that snaps into mounting rails in accordance with DIN 50 022. The user must provide any other components required by his application.
Other features of the basic termination panels are the same as for the standard panels.
Hazardous Location (Nonincendive) Termination Panels Hazardous location (nonincendive) termination panels are suitable for use in Zone 2 (ATEX), and Class 1, Divi-sion 2 (North America) field circuits.
These panels contain extra circuitry designed to limit power available to the field terminals and have been examined and certified by TÜV Rheinland as being nonincendive. This guarantees that if the field wires are accidentally opened, shorted, or grounded, and the Tricon controller is operating normally, the wiring and attached devices will not release sufficient energy to cause igni-tion in the specified flammable atmo-sphere.
Termination Panels with Interposing Relays Interposing relays are recommended for applications that have load currents greater than 2 amps, or field voltages greater than 115 VAC which require field-circuit conversion or compati-bility with motor-starter circuits.
Each interposing relay provides an auxiliary contact that can be connected to a digital input module by means of an optional loopback cable to verify relay activation by the digital output module.
Interposing relay panels use compact general-purpose power relays for maximum reliability and can be used with most digital output modules.
Bypass Panels for Digital Inputs Bypass termination panels can be used to connect digital inputs using a bank of 32 pre-wired switches. The bypass Standard Termination Panels in 16-Point and 32-Point Styles 01-9302048-MM-001 404 of 1037
57 panel has a master keyswitch and terminals for redundant +24 VDC power sources. Each input point contains an On status indicator and a position for a user-defined label. Each bypass termination panel comes with one or two 10-foot cables for connecting the termination panel to a Tricon controller backplane.
Termination Panels for Use with Signal Conditioners Termination panels which use industry-standard analog signal conditioners provide a flexible, user-configurable interface to resistive thermal devices (RTDs), thermocouples, and 4-20 mA transmitters. Each termination panel supports 16 points and each analog module can support up to 2 panels.
These termination panels are compat-ible with any signal conditioners in the 1 to 5 volt output range. For example, the 7B series of signal conditioners from Analog Devices are known to work well.
These signal conditioners can be purchased from Invensys, or directly from Analog Devices at:
http://www.analog.com/IOS 1-800-426-2564 in the USA 781-461-3100 from anywhere in the world Fanned-Out Cables Fanned-out cables are a low-cost alter-native to using external termination panels. Fanned-out cables allow you to marshal field signals in a separate enclosure up to 99 feet (30 meters) from a Tricon chassis. One end of a fanned-out cable has a female connector that connects to a Tricon chassis backplane.
The other end of the cable contains 50 fanned-out leads, each individually labeled with its corresponding connector pin number.
termination panel is installed. For Model 3708E, upscale or downscale burnout detection is configured with the TriStation 1131 software.
The Termination Options table (on the next two pages) shows the available termination choices for each I/O module and gives the correct model number for each choice.
Over-Current Protection Non-basic termination panels offer over-current protection in various ways:
Fuses for individual points and/or field power sources Series resistors Self-protection for digital output and analog output modules If you are using basic termination panels, you must supply your own components for over-current protec-tion.
Termination Products for Use in 1E (Safety-Related)
Applications in Nuclear Power Plants For a list of Tricon v10 termination products qualified for use in 1E (safety-related) applications in nuclear power plants, see Tricon v10.x Equipment Certified for Use in Nuclear 1E Appli-cations on page 23.
Each fanned-out cable has the following characteristics:
PVC outer covering 56-pin connector at one end 50 stranded, stripped, tinned and labeled 22-gauge leads at opposite end Fanned-out cables should only be used with digital input and digital output modules. They are not certified for use with analog signals. Contact the Invensys Global Customer Support (GCS) center if you need a fanned-out cable for handling analog signals.
Although the normal length of all cables is 10 feet (3 meters), any length cable can be ordered up to 99 feet (30 meters) in 10-foot increments, using the last two digits of the cable model number to specify the length in feet. For example, the model number 9101-050F specifies a 50-foot cable instead of the normal 10-foot cable.
Termination Configuration Options Terminations are available in various factory configurations:
Non-commoned Terminations can accommodate individual power supplies for each point.
Commoned Terminations can support one power supply which is shared by multiple points. Points can be commoned in groups of 8 and groups of 16.
Analog signals can be read as 3-wire transmitter inputs, voltage inputs or current inputs.
Thermocouple terminations provide cold-junction temperature sensors and are available for either upscale or downscale burnout detection. For Model 3706A, upscale or downscale burnout detection depends on which 01-9302048-MM-001 405 of 1037

CommunicationCapabilities In most process-control applications, there are two systems which monitor and manage the process. One is a Distributed Control System (DCS) and the other is a safety system such as the Tricon controller. These two systems are usually isolated, but share a common operator interface. Distributed Control Systems are designed to allow highly effective communication with the process operator, who must be informed of the state of the process at all times. This is desirable for safety systems as well, but was not feasible in the past because of the type of tech-nology used to implement these systems.
Today, the state-of-the-art, micropro-cessor-based architecture of the Tricon controller supports several modes of communication. Depending on control program requirements, the Tricon can interface with:
Any Modbus master, including DCS from ABB, Bailey, Fisher-Rosemount and Yokogawa Modbus slave devices A Foxboro Intelligent Automation (I/A) Series Nodebus A Honeywell Universal Control Network (UCN)
A Honeywell Data Hiway and Local Control Network (LCN)
External host computers on Ethernet (802.3) networks Other Triconex controllers in a Peer-to-Peer, TÜV-certified network A TriStation 1131 PC OPC Server for Triconex Networking with Modbus The Tricon Communication Module (TCM) supports the industry-standard Modbus protocol over a serial link or a TCP network. The Enhanced Intelli-gent Communication Module (EICM) supports the Modbus protocol over a serial link. Most suppliers of operator TCM Communication with Modbus Master and TriStation 1131 PC 01-9302048-MM-001 415 of 1037
68 Communication Capabilities workstation software (PC-based or mini-computer-based) support Modbus RTU and ASCII protocol, as do most DCS vendors, by means of a network-bridging device.
Because the TCM and the EICM can operate as a Modbus master or slave (the EICM can simultaneously act as both), the productivity of the Tricon controller can be expanded in a low-cost manner for non-critical I/O. When the TCM or the EICM operates as the master, it can control slave devices such as annunciators, bypass switches on non-critical PLCs, or other Tricon controllers. When the TCM or the EICM operates as a slave, a computer on the network is the masterthis can be a DCS, an operator workstation, or any general-purpose computer programmed to support Modbus devices.
TCM and EICM users can select the RS-232 point-to-point interface for one master and one slave, or the RS-485 interface for one master and up to 32 slaves. The RS-485 network trunk can be one or two twisted-pair wires up to a maximum of 4,000 feet (1,200 meters).
While the TCM and the EICM are appropriate for many applications, Invensys offers alternate communica-tion methods when fast response time or a large amount of data throughput is required.
Networking with Ethernet The Tricon controller supports Ethernet (802.3) communication through the NET 1 and NET 2 ports on the Tricon Communication Module (TCM), and the NET 2 ports on the Advanced Communication Module (ACM) and the Network Communication Module (NCM). All of these modules support Triconex applications, user-written applications, and open networking with external systems by means of TCP-IP/UDP-IP protocol.
In addition, the TCM and NCM support the Triconex Peer-to-Peer and Time Synchronization protocols on the NET 1 port. The TCM and NCM also support a fully redundant OPC capa-bility. The table above lists the proto-cols and applications that can be used with the TCM, NCM, and ACM.
To maximize safety, the Tricon system offers module, media, and workstation redundancy. Module/media redun-dancy is achieved by installing two TCMs, NCMs, or ACMs in the same logical slot and connecting their network nodes with two sets of cables.
This arrangement permits continuous operation in case of broken cables, intermittent cable connections, port failures, or TCM/ NCM/ACM failures.
External host redundancy is obtained by connecting a spare external host machine to the network. If the primary host fails, it can be shut down and the control program restarted on the spare host. All Triconex applications use PCs as external hosts, so all of the applica-tions could be loaded on the primary and spare hosts without requiring any other PCs.
Triconex Protocols A protocol is a set of rules for exchanging data between two or more devices. In a Peer-to-Peer protocol, any device on the network can initiate a data transfer operation. In a master/slave protocol, only the master can initiate a Protocols TCM EICM NCM ACM Peer-to-Peer

69 data exchange. Invensys has developed one peer-to-peer protocol and three master/slave protocols (Time Synchro-nization, TriStation, and TSAA) to support different types of applications.
All of the following Triconex protocols support a maximum of 31 Tricon controllers on a network. Please contact Invensys for application guidelines and potential performance limitations.
Peer-to-Peer Peer-to-Peer protocol allows Tricon controllers to exchange small amounts of safety and process information on the proprietary network. For information about using the Peer-to-Peer Send and Recv functions in applications, see the TriStation 1131 Developers Guide.
Time Synchronization Time Synchronization is a master/slave protocol used to maintain a consistent time base for all Tricon controllers connected to each other by means of TCMs or NCMs.
TriStation The TriStation protocol is a master/slave protocol in which the master (the TriStation 1131 PC) communicates with the slave (the Tricon controller) over an Ethernet network. Although the TriStation protocol supports a maximum of 31 Tricon controllers, the master can applications are briefly described in the table below.
The Tricon controller offers consider-able flexibility and functionality in the area of data communication, and can readily be configured to match control program requirements. Invensys is continually striving to advance the state of the art in safety systems. High-speed, redundant network communication is another example of that commitment.
Foxboro's Intelligent Automation Series System Invensys offers the Advanced Commu-nication Module (ACM) for tightly-integrated interfacing with Foxboro's Intelligent Automation (I/A) Series Nodebus. The ACM communicates process information at full network data rates for use anywhere on the I/A Series system, transmitting all Tricon aliased data and diagnostic information to operator workstations in display formats that are familiar to Foxboro operators.
The ACM makes the following func-tions available to the I/A Series:
Handles critical I/O points and passes results to the I/A Series Processes Tricon controller alarms and propagates them to user-defined communicate with only one slave at a time.
TSAA The Tricon System Access control program (TSAA) protocol is a master/slave protocol in which the master (the external host) communi-cates with one or more slaves (Tricon controllers) over an open network.
TSAA specifies the interfaces, commands and data structures used to develop applications that send and receive data to and from Tricon control-lers.
TSAA can be used to develop these types of applications:
Control (read/write) applications such as an operator interface that requires access to Tricon controller status and the ability to write data to the Tricon controller.
Monitor (read only) applications such as a Sequential Events Recorder, Event Logger or status display that retrieves data from the Tricon controller.
For more information about TSAA, see the Communication Guide for Tricon v9-v10 Systems.
Triconex Applications Invensys offers several applications for Ethernet (802.3) networks, all of which use a PC as the external host. These Triconex Application Description TriStation 1131 Allows development, testing, and monitoring of applications for the Tricon controller.
Sequence of Events (SOE)
Retrieves events (state changes of discrete variables) from Tricon controllers on a network. For system maintenance and shutdown analysis.
Enhanced Diagnostic Monitor Allows monitoring the hardware and application status of Tricon controllers.
DDE Server Allows Windows-based DDE client applications such as Microsoft Excel to read and write Tricon aliased data.
OPC Server for Triconexa Allows OPC clients to have read and write access to Triconex controller program variables. Requires the Network Communication Module (NCM) or the Tricon Communication Module (TCM).

The SMM is used solely for communi-cation with the Universal Control Network (UCN), one of three principal networks of the TDC-3000. Appearing to the Honeywell system as a safety node, the SMM communicates process information at full network data rates for use anywhere on the TDC-3000.
The SMM transmits all Tricon aliased data and diagnostic information to operator workstations in display formats that are familiar to Honeywell operators.
The SMM makes the following func-tions available to the TDC-3000:
Handles critical I/O points and passes results to the DCS Processes Tricon controller alarms and propagates them to user-defined DCS destinations (consoles, printers, etc.)
Reads/writes aliased data to satisfy DCS requests Reads Tricon controller diagnostics for display by the DCS Provides write protection to lock out changes to the Tricon controllers from all TDC-3000 sources Enables time synchronization from the DCS Allows Peer-to-Peer communication for plants with many Tricon controllers Provides sequence of events to help determine the cause of plant trips and increase process uptime Provides hot-spare capability for uninterrupted communication with Honeywell networks The HIM interfaces with the TDC-3000 by means of the Hiway Gateway and Local Control Network (LCN). The HIM can also interface with Honey-well's older TDC 2000 control system by means of the Data Hiway. Using the HIM, higher-order devices on the LCN or Data Hiway (such as computers and operator workstations) can communi-cate with the Tricon controller.
Both the SMM and the HIM offer the hot-spare capability for uninterrupted communication with Honeywell networks.

Elements of a TriStation 1131 Project A TriStation 1131 project contains all of the elements required to implement a safety or control program in a Tricon controller. Some of these elements are automatically included in every project by the TriStation 1131 software, while others are user-created.
Programs A program is the highest-level execut-able logic element in a TriStation 1131 project. It is an assembly of program-ming language elements (functions, function blocks, and data variables) that work together to allow a programmable control system to achieve control of a machine or a process. Each program is uniquely identified by a user-defined type name. A TriStation 1131 project can support hundreds of programs.
Functions A function is a logic element which yields exactly one result. Unlike a func-tion block, the data associated with a function is not retained from one evalu-ation of the function to the next. Func-tions do not have to be instanced.
IEC 61131-3 Standard Library - a set of functions and function blocks defined by the IEC 61131-3 Standard Triconex Library - a set of Triconex functions and function blocks that can be used with any Triconex programmable controller Tricon Library - a set of functions and function blocks that are specifically for use with the Tricon controller In addition to the pre-defined libraries, you can also develop your own libraries of project elements. These libraries can include programs, functions, function blocks, and data types which can be imported to other TriStation 1131 proj-ects.
Programming Languages The TriStation 1131 software includes these programming languages: Func-tion Block Diagram, Structured Text, and Ladder Diagram. An optional language, CEMPLE, can be purchased separately.
Function Blocks A function block is a logic element which yields one or more results. To use a function block in a program, an instance of the function block type must first be declared. Each instance is iden-tified by a user-defined instance name.
All of the data associated with a specific instance of a function block is retained from one evaluation of the function block to the next.
Data Types A data type defines the size and charac-teristics of variables declared in a program, function or function block.
Data types used by the TriStation 1131 software include discrete (BOOL),
analog (DINT), and real (REAL).
Libraries The TriStation 1131 software includes libraries of pre-defined functions, func-tion blocks, and data types that can be used in a project.
The TriStation 1131 software includes these libraries:
Sample Logic in FBD, ST, and LD Languages 01-9302048-MM-001 420 of 1037
73 Function Block Diagram (FBD)
Function Block Diagram is a graph-ical language that corresponds to circuit diagrams. FBD elements appear as blocks that are wired together to form circuits. The wires transfer binary and other types of data between elements.
Structured Text (ST)
Structure Text is a high-level, textual programming language that is similar to PASCAL. Structured Text allows Boolean and arithmetic expressions, and programming structures such as conditional (IFTHENELSE) statements. Functions and function blocks can be invoked in Structured Text.
In the TriStation 1131 v4.0 software, these structures were added: arrays, structures, ForLoop and Exit state-ments, CASE statement, enumerated data types, var-external, and var-temp variables.
Ladder Diagram (LD)
Ladder Diagram is a graphical language that uses a standard set of symbols for representing relay logic.
The basic elements are coils and contacts which are connected by links.
Links are different from the wires in CEMPLE is the first automated imple-mentation of CEM, a methodology that is commonly used throughout the process-control industry and readily understood by a broad range of plant personnel. CEM diagrams are automat-ically translated into IEC 61131-3 compliant Function Block Diagrams, thereby eliminating the risks associated with manual translation from hand-drawn CEMs.
Controller Configuration In the TriStation 1131 software, the controller configuration identifies the modules in the system, communication settings, memory allocation for tagnames, and operating parameters.
These configuration settings are included in the control program that is downloaded to the controller.
FBD in that they transfer only binary data between the elements.
Cause and Effect Matrix Programming Language Editor (CEMPLE)
CEMPLE is a high-level graphical language that provides a two-dimen-sional matrix in which you can asso-ciate a problem in a process with one or more corrective actions. The problem is referred to as the cause and the action as the effect. The matrix associates a cause with an effect in the intersection of the cause row and the effect column.
Sample CEM from a TriStation 1131 Project Declaring Tagnames in a Program 01-9302048-MM-001 421 of 1037
74 TriStation 1131 Developers Workbench Emulator Panel The Emulator Panel allows you to connect to the Triconex Emulator, download the control program, and test and debug the control program. The panel lists the programs, variables, and tagnames in the control program.
Testing can be done by dragging vari-ables and tagnames from the list to the monitor panel and changing the values as desired. You can specify commands to run the control program without intervention, to run in single-step, or to halt the execution.
Controller Panel The Controller Panel allows connection to the controller for real-time execution of the control program.
TriStation 1131 Interface Options The TriStation 1131 software allows you to specify options to be used in the interface. For example, you can specify the drawing colors used in the program-ming editors, and editor options such as double-spacing between function block terminals. You can also specify the directory location for files.
Reports and Documentation The TriStation 1131 software includes multiple methods of sorting data and documenting project elements, both during and after project development.
Printouts of user-developed function blocks and programs can be obtained on a variety of user-selected engi-neering drawing templates.
Standard reports are available to docu-ment the project configuration data.
You can also create customized reports with Crystal Reports'.
Password Security The TriStation 1131 software provides a security system that defines users and their privileges with regard to editing, library changes, state changes and other operations.
Project History An audit trail function is provided to document the history of a project and its program version changes. This detailed log keeps track of user actions and comments by automatically time-stamping critical events within a session and manually logging user comments on demand.
Annotations Annotations can be added to constants, tagnames, and variables An annotation can be used to display descriptive text, including information specified in system and user-modifiable macros.
You can also display the value of a vari-able during program execution.
Comments Comments can be added to programs, functions, and function blocks to add information about the operations.
Help Documentation The TriStation 1131 software features an extensive online Help system which provides detailed information about TriStation 1131 features and functions.

75 CEMPLEistheTriconexautomatedimplementationofthe traditionalCEMmethodologythathasbeenusedbyprocess controlengineersfordecades.
CEMProgrammingLanguageEditor Cause and Effect Matrix (CEM) is a methodology that is commonly used in the process control industry to define alarms, emergency shutdown strate-gies, and mitigation actions. For decades, process control engineers have used manual methods such as graph paper and spreadsheet programs to identify problem conditions and corrective actions.
Automated CEM Called CEMPLE The traditional CEM method is time-consuming and subject to errors caused by misinterpretation of the matrix or inaccurate coding. Triconex has auto-mated the CEM process with the Cause and Effect Matrix Program-ming Language Editor, referred to as CEMPLE.
CEMPLE enables a cause and effect matrix to be used as the basis for a TriStation 1131 program.
CEMPLE Features CEMPLE includes the following features:
Ability to specify up to 99 causes, 99 effects, and 1,000 intersections Ability to invoke functions and function blocks to evaluate cause, intersection, and effect states Automatic conversion of matrix to Function Block Diagram language Customized view monitoring of active causes, intersections, and effects Multiple levels of undo and redo editing CEM Editor The CEM Editor includes the following components as shown in the figure below:
Matrix FBD Network Variable Detail Table Matrix As the major component of the CEM Editor, the Matrix identifies the parts of associated with causes, effects, and intersections. The Matrix can also include functions or function blocks related to causes, effects, and intersec-tions.
FBD Network The FBD Network displays the Func-tion Block Diagram (FBD) related to the cause, intersection, or effect that is selected in the matrix. It can also be used to specify properties and to invert values for variables.
Matrix rows and columns Variable Detail Table FBD Network CEM Editor Components 01-9302048-MM-001 423 of 1037
76 CEM Programming Language Editor The FBD network uses internal boolean variables to save and move results to associated cells so that causes and effects can be evaluated. For each cause, effect, and intersection, an internal variable is automatically created to store and move results between cells.
Variable Detail Table The Variable Detail Table displays the inputs and outputs of the FBD Network that are generated when a cause, effect, or intersection is selected.
The variable type and data type can also be specified from the Variable Detail Table.
Developing a Matrix A matrix created in CEMPLE can be as basic or complex as the situation requires. In a basic matrix, causes are identified as true or false inputs related to one or more effects through the inter-sections between them. The state of a cause (true or false) determines the state of the related effect. If more than one cause is related to an effect, the state of the effect is based on how the matrix is evaluated.
The effect state can be determined in either of two ways: by a logical AND operation or by a logical OR operation on the intersection. A logical AND is typically used for de-energize to trip systems; a logical OR is typically used for energize to trip systems.
Using Functions and Function Blocks For more complex processes, CEMPLE enables functions and function blocks to be added to causes, effects, and inter-sections. This feature can be used for many purposes, such as; evalu-ation of process input to deter-mine the cause state, calculating one or more process variable values based on the state of an effect, and using time delays.
User-created functions and function blocks, must be created and enabled for use before they can be included in a matrix.
Testing and Monitoring Like all TriStation 1131 programs, a matrix can be tested and debugged off-line using the Emulator Control Panel. After the project is downloaded, the Control Panel can be used to monitor the values of variables during real-time execution.
In an instance view of a matrix, active causes, intersections, and effects can be viewed in a choice of colors.
As with other types of executable elements, values and variables can be set for use during emulation and real-time execution.
CEMPLE Tools A matrix can be developed and edited using a variety of graphical interface methods. Commands can be selected from a main menu, toolbar, and pop-up menu.
Variables can be added or renamed by making changes in the Variable Detail Table. Where appropriate, drop-down lists provide variable names or function and function block names to be selected.
For more information, see the TriSta-tion 1131 Developers Guide.

SequenceofEvents(SOE)Capability Triconex systems support the ability to report, by exception, events that are significant in your application. This capability, called Sequence of Events (SOE), includes the following parts:
Defining the discrete data items to be monitored through the TriStation 1131 application Monitoring and collecting events by the Triconex controller Retrieving the events from the Triconex controller using a host system The following host systems can be used to retrieve event data:
Triconex SOE Recorder, a Windows-based application that runs on a PC Safety Manager Module (SMM) for Honeywell DCS systems Advanced Communication Module (ACM) for Foxboro DCS systems An OPC client control program which has implemented the Alarm and Events Handler as specified in the OPC standard version 1.0 With the Triconex SOE Recorder software you can:
Collect and analyze event data Export event database files Print reports with event data The SOE data file, which is output from the TriStation 1131 software, is only for use with Triconex SOE Recorder. This file is read by the software and adds descriptive information which is associated with the tagname in the Configuration file in the TriStation 1131 software.
Preparing Your System for Event Collection To enable the controller to detect events, event variables and SOE blocks are identified in the TriStation 1131 project. In addition, the project must include an SOE function block that starts the event collection.
After an SOE-enabled project is down-loaded to the controller, the TriStation 1131 software creates an SOE defini-tion file that contains the SOE block definitions.
When the SOE software collects an event from the controller, it obtains the tagname, alias, state name, and other information about the event variable from the SOE definition file.
These tasks are done in the TriStation 1131 software:
Defining SOE blocks with buffer size and block types Assigning event variables to the SOE blocks Adding SOE function blocks to the program logic Types of Event Variables The types of discrete variables that can be designated as event variables are:

78 Sequence of Events (SOE) Capability Configuring SOE Blocks An SOE block is a data structure that resides in the memory of a controllers Main Processors. When SOE blocks are configured, the event variables to be detected by the controller are specified for each block.
The maximum individual block size is 20,000 events, with 60,000 events for all blocks. The block size is the amount of memory that the Main Processors reserve for recording of events.
When a block is collecting events, the Main Processors write an event entry which includes the values of event vari-ables that changed during the current scan and a time stamp.
SOE Function Blocks SOE function blocks control and verify event collection for SOE blocks. The following function blocks are available:
SOESTRT starts event collection SOESTOP stops event collection SOESTAT checks status of SOE blocks SOECLR clears status of SOE blocks The SOESTRT function block must be added to the TriStation 1131 program to identify the SOE blocks from which events are to be collected. The other SOE function blocks are optional.
SOE Software SOE software can simultaneously collect event data from as many as 31 networked controllers. It queries all the controllers on the network to determine which downloaded TriStation 1131 projects include SOE blocks. If a project includes one or more SOE blocks, the software opens the appro-priate SOE definition file and begins collecting events from the associated controller.
SOE Events File related to trip conditions, these vari-ables must be evaluated in combination to determine the final state of the trip variable. When a trip event occurs, the SOE software can automatically create a trip snapshot. This snapshot is a file of events that occurred x minutes before a trip and y minutes after a trip, based on the settings in the TriStation 1131 software.
Time Synchronization and Time Stamps In a typical Peer-to-Peer network, the controllers synchronize their time with the master node (the controller with the lowest node number) within +/-25 milli-seconds. A controller recognizes events on a scan basis and time-stamps each event at the beginning of the scan.
Because the scans of the various controllers on the network are not synchronized, the same event can be logged by two controllers with different time stamps. The worst-case difference is the longer scan time plus 25 milliseconds.
Each day, the SOE software compares its clock with the clock of each controller from which event data is being collected. If a controllers clock is out of sync by more than five minutes, a message is displayed in the SOE message bar.
While the TriStation 1131 project is running, the SOE software can be used to analyze events online as it collects them from the controllers. Snapshots of events that cover specific periods of time before or after trips have occurred can also be saved.
To analyze the event data, the Triconex SOE Recorder software includes tools for these tasks:
Finding events and copying them to other Windows-based applications Filtering and sorting saved event data Specifying the display of point properties for event data Viewing the properties of individual events SOE Recorder also allows event data to be exported to database or ASCII text files, either manually or automatically.
A report engine and standard report are included.
Trip Processing A trip is a shutdown of the controlled process, or a portion of the controlled process. A TriStation 1131 project used for safety shutdown typically includes one trip variable, whose state change initiates the shutdown activities. If a project requires several variables 01-9302048-MM-001 426 of 1037
79 TriconexSafetyViewABMallowsyoutomonitorandmanage safetyalarms.
SafetyViewABM Triconex Safety View Alarm and Bypass Management (ABM) is part of the Triconex Safety View suite of appli-cations. Safety View ABM is used to monitor and acknowledge safety alarms, and bypass tagnames. The safety alarms are generated from field devices connected to the safety control-lers, and represent conditions impacting the safety of the equipment under control. Safety View ABM also displays the current alarm state and process condition for all configured tagnames. The user interface, configu-rability, and bypass capabilities make Safety View ABM superior to tradi-tional safety monitoring tools.
Safety View ABM supports compliance with NERC cyber security require-ments, and is TÜV-approved for use with SIL3 safety systems per IEC 61508 and IEC 61511. Safety View ABM can be used with the following Triconex controllers:
