Advant Controller 410 is a medium-sized controller for mixed binary, regulatory and
supervisory control. It can be used standing alone, or as an integrated controller in a distributed
control system, communicating with other Advant OCS equipment (see Figure 1-1).
This manual is intended primarily for plant designers and commissioning and maintenance
personnel, providing them with information about the Advant Controller 410 system,
its capabilities and its limitations.
References are made to other manuals when necessary. Section 1.2, Manual Organization
provides further details about both this manual and other related manuals.
Basic Structure
Figure 1-2 shows the basic structure of the Advant System’s various documentation.
Each document, whether it is describing and referencing hardware or software, is built around
this one structure to make it easy for you to locate related information in any of the documents.
Since this one structure is not completely applicable to both hardware and software, certain
sections contain only very brief statements in some documents. Small divergences from the
standard structure are given in italics in Figure 1-2.
Chapter
Configuration/ Runtime
Introduction Installation Application Maintenance Appendices Index
Building Operation
The substructure followed in the product description in Section 1.7, Product Overview is also
followed in other sections describing, for example, Design Considerations and Capacity &
Performance. This is done to make it easy for you to find the information you need about
different activities.
Because of the activity-oriented structure of the document, you may find information regarding
an actual function distributed to, for example Overview, Configuration, Operation, and so on.
Sometimes you can find device information gathered in the hardware descriptions in the
appendices.
Chapter 1, Introduction
(this chapter) provides introductory and background information, including:
• Guidelines on how you can find information in this manual.
• This manual’s relationship to other Advant Controller 410 documents.
• A glossary defining terms frequently used in this manual.
• A product and functional overview. Read this to get an idea of what
the Advant Controller 410 can do and how it works.
Chapter 2, Installation
guides you through various installation activities:
• Section 2.1, Site Planning Environment. This section contains guidelines for planning
installation of the product, outlining what you need to think about when you plan an
installation. It does not, however, provide the complete list of measures to take. You can
find descriptions of alternative solutions, design considerations elsewhere in this manual.
• Section 2.2, Setup. This section gives you concrete information on how to set up the
product. It includes safety regulations, handling and unpacking instructions, inspection
and assembly procedures, cable routing and connections, switch settings and jumper
positions, setup procedures, and so on. You can find common instructions as well as
instructions for specific subsystems in this section. Activities prior to power-up are also
described.
• Section 2.3, Shut-down Procedures. This section provides, in addition to some safety
regulations, basic shut-down procedures. You should know how to shut down the product
if there is a problem with initial power-up.
• Section 2.4, Start-up Procedures. In Section 2.2, Setup, the conditions and the preparation
necessary to begin are discussed. In Section 2.4, Start-up Procedures, you can find basic
power-up procedures, that is how to apply power to and initialize the system. Information
is also given on how you can verify a correct start. You can find information on activities
up to “ready for application program loading” in this section.
• Section 2.5, Product Verification. This section tells you how to make an initial
determination that the product is functional. This includes application program loading as
well as commissioning information.
• Section 2.6, Implementation of Functions in Systems Already Operating. This section
gives you the information you need to determine when, for example, to add an I/O board to
a running system. Important on-line, off-line aspects are discussed.
Chapter 5, Maintenance
The preventive maintenance required for electronic equipment is not significant. This chapter
focuses on fault finding supported by built-in diagnostics. Various methods of fault
announcement are presented, including the use of system status in the central operator station
and LEDs on controller hardware units.
Appendices
A variety of information which does not fall into other categories within this manual’s structure
are included in the appendices. Examples are:
• Controller hardware descriptions
• Item designations in cabinets
• Description of delivery documentation
• Blanks for use during design work, for example calculation of heat dissipation.
Index
The Index offers you an easy and quick way to find answers to specific questions.
1.3 Conventions

1.6 Terminology
AMPL
The ABB Master Programming Language is used for application programming.
Application Program
An application program is a general concept of an assembly of program functions aimed at
realizing and automating an addressed process control function.
Application (user-built)
An application is a user-implemented configuration of standard hardware and software units.
It is the solution to the user’s problem.
Backplane
A backplane is part of a subrack which interconnects inserted electronics modules with the help
of a communication bus.
Basic System
Basic system is the abstract name of a minimal composition of functional units forming a
system.
Basic Unit
Basic unit is used for ordering purposes (for example in the Price Book) as a name for the
smallest unit to be ordered or a platform for further enlargement with alternatives and options.
Board
A board is usually a hardware component of a module.
Boot
Boot refers to the (re)start of nodes. Phases of the boot process include, for example power-up
diagnostics, software download, data base download and node initialization.
During the initialization phase of booting, control applications directly interfacing to process
outputs perform a cold start or warm start.
Cabinet
The cabinet is the outer case of a piece of equipment (a packaging option), for example
Controller cabinet, I/O cabinet.
CPU, Central Processing Unit
A CPU is a functional unit consisting primarily of a microprocessor and memory.
Circuit Breaker
In the context of a process control system, a circuit breaker is a device designed to open and
close a circuit by nonautomatic means and to open the circuit automatically on a predetermined
overload of current, without injury to itself.
Cold Start
Cold start is a kind of booting of a controller (or process station). This means:
• Erasing the user-built application program
• Transition to working mode CONFIGURATION.
Controller
Controller is a descriptive name for Advant Controller products.
A controller is an entity in which control applications are running.
From the product viewpoint, a controller consists of CPU, communication and certain auxiliary
equipment such as power supply. It also includes the functionality of process I/O (the process
data communication software). It does not include process I/O hardware (and firmware as
applicable).
Control Network
The structure of nodes (for example controllers and operator stations) linked together via
MasterNet is called a control network (DCN). It provides real time communication.
ESD
ESD stands for ElectroStatic Discharge.
Functional Unit
A functional unit is an ABB Master specified denomination.
It is a “package” of different software functions such as PC elements, data base elements and
man-machine interface for an operator station.
HART
A protocol for connection of intelligent transducers (Highway Addressable Remote
Transducer). For example, measuring range, calibration and other maintenance data can be
transferred.
Hot stand-by Redundancy
Hot stand-by redundancy is redundancy where a system component is backed up by identical
hardware and software in the event of any failure. The backup components do not load-share
with primary components.
I/O
I/O is process Input or Output. From the functional and geographical distribution viewpoint,
process I/O is distinguished into two main categories:
• Central (located close to the controller)
• Distributed (in the process environment).
IMS, Information Management Station
An IMS is a station executing information management applications such as statistical control,
production control, and so on.
Initialization
Initialization sets a starting position.
INSUM
Integrated System for User optimized Motor control. An ABB proprietary, LONWORK based
system for switchgear and motor control systems.
Intrinsically Safe Equipment
Intrinsically safe equipment and wiring is equipment and wiring which is incapable of releasing
sufficient electrical energy under normal or abnormal conditions to cause ignition of a specific
hazardous atmosphere mixture.
LED, Light Emitting Diode
Local Control, local operator
Local control is a mode of operation where responsibility is assigned to an operator/equipment
located in the process environment close to the process object.
LONWORK
Local Operating Network. A fieldbus developed and owned by Echelon Corporation, and with a
public protocol.
Module
A module is a hardware unit, with or without accommodated software, or a software unit.
There are modules of various sizes and functionality. Examples of hardware modules:
Subrack, submodule carrier, communication module, I/O module.
Examples of software modules:
Basic system program module in a controller, a PC element.
Multi-drop Connection
A multi-drop connection is a means of establishing a multi-drop network, that is a network with
two endpoint nodes, any number of intermediate nodes and only a single path between any two
nodes.
Node
A node in general - a point in a data network.
A node in an application:
• Any logically addressable unit directly connected to the plant or control network.
Examples are controller, process station, operator station.
• Any logically addressable unit connected via RCOM.
Object Oriented Connection
Object oriented connection means a way of organizing the connection of field intermediate
cables from process objects which utilize different categories of signals, for example, DI and
DO. The purpose is to eliminate the need of marshalling and cable split-up.
Off-line
With off-line configuration, configuration data is created outside the application for later
installation, or the internal configuration data is directly affected, but the application is inactive.
On-line
With on-line configuration, the internal configuration data of a system application is directly
affected, while the application is active.
Process Object
A process object is process concept/equipment, for example, valve, motor, conveyor, tank.
Process Station
Process station is a descriptive name for MasterPiece products.
A process station is an entity in which control applications are running. It includes the process
I/O.
RAM, Random Access Memory
Redundancy
Redundancy in general means the existence of more than one capability of an item (system,
apparatus, component) to perform its intended function.
Slot
A slot means:
• The place in the subrack where you put a module.
• The place in a submodule carrier where you put a submodule.
Formally, for example, in data base elements, the terms POSITION and SUBMODULE
POSITION are used instead.
Submodule Carrier
A submodule carrier is a module (circuit board) which houses smaller modules (submodules).
Subrack
According to IEC 916, subracks are the mechanics which house rows of boards. Different types
of subracks are available, for example controller subrack, I/O subrack.
Type Circuit
Type circuit is an application-specific standard solution in connection to controller
configuration. The scope of a type circuit is the controller data base and the PC program.
Warm Start
Warm start is a type of booting on controllers, which means resetting of dynamic information in
PC programs and the data base.
Figure 1-3. Front View of Cabinet RM500 for Advant Controller 410
The system can handle several hundred inputs and outputs, connected directly or remotely to the
controller. Distributed I/O units, PLC-type controllers (Programmable Logic Controller) and
converters for d.c. motor drives can be connected via a field bus. Interface is available to other
vendors’ systems.
Measured values can be logged and/or tied to alarm and event registration.
An Advant Controller 410 is accommodated in a single equipment frame, a special variant of a
process I/O subrack. Besides the limited number of I/O boards (15) located in the I/O subrack,
additional I/O can be connected via a fieldbus.
The controller and I/O boards and necessary connection units are installed in one or two
cabinets.
You can include an Advant Controller 410 in a network with other ABB Master products, for
example other Advant Controllers, products from the Advant Station 100 Series, the Advant
Station 500 Series and the Advant Station 800 Series. These series include operator stations,
information management systems (IMS) and engineering stations. From the compatibility
viewpoint, you can also include MasterPiece 200/1 products, MasterView 800/1 products,
SuperView 900 products and external computers in the network (see Figure 1-1).
You can connect a local operator station and a printer to an Advant Controller 410 via standard
serial channels.
The programmability of Advant Controller 410 covers a wide range of functions, such as logic
and sequence control, data and text handling, arithmetic, reporting, positioning and regulatory
control, including PID control.
A function-block language with graphic representation, you can use AMPL (ABB Master
Programming Language), for configuration and application building. It is especially oriented
toward process control.
The smallest units in the language are standardized functions, represented by graphic symbols
(PC elements). Each PC element represents a complete function such as an AND-gate, a time
delay, a shift register, a PID controller, and so on. (See Figure 1-5). The language offers a simple
method to link PC elements and describe the data exchange between the functions selected to
control the process.

You can assemble a number of PC elements to form a PC module, which in turn can be
incorporated in further modules. Several modules form a PC program, which is the solution to
automate an addressed process control function.
Such a PC program executes the PC modules, element by element, with a periodicity which you
can normally select from 10 ms up to 2 s. You can document the complete program
automatically in graphic form on a printer.
As a complement to the function block language, programmable boards (programmed in C
language) are available for special applications.
A data base, which is a standardized storage place, is used for exchanging data with other parts
of the Master system.
High-performance tools such as the Advant Station 100 Series Engineering Stations are
available for configuration, application programming, documentation, testing and
commissioning.

General Modularization
ABB Master is a totally modularized system at all levels. The high level consists of a family of
system products. An example of an advanced control system applying system products is
illustrated in Figure 1-1.
The system product is divided into HW modules and SW modules. In this way, the system
shows:
• High reliability
• High maintainability
• High integrity.
Hardware modules are replaceable units of the types power supply units, battery charger, and so
on, and printed circuit boards to be located in subracks.
The assembled program modules defining the product’s overall functionality are examples of
software modules. The different PC elements represent the lowest level of software
modularization exposed to you.
Further modularization exists to simplify different situations, for example sales, design,
application building and so on. Composite units are made by basic modules. Primarily, you can
find such packages in the Product Guide and other tendering and sales documentation.
For example, you will encounter the concept of a basic unit. Basic unit is used when you are
ordering as a name for the smallest unit to be ordered or a platform for further enlargement with
alternatives and options.
Hardware
Controller and process I/O are separate products. This means that, in this manual, you will find
only short presentations of supported I/O systems and I/O boards. For more in-depth
information, see separate I/O documentation.
The Advant Controller 410 includes:
• CPU with memory residing the fixed internal program (the system software) and the
application program
• Communication submodules
• System software backup submodule
• A backup power supply including a battery charger
• 5 V regulators.
Physically, the Advant Controller 410 is compactly assembled and consists of a processor
module with a number of slots for optional submodules. Advant Controller 410 is located in an
S100 I/O subrack.
For a physical view of the hardware configuration, see Figure 1-7. The denominations of
communication link types and system functions used are made clear in the subsections
beginning with Section 1.7.2, Product Structure.
The process I/O dedicated to an Advant Controller 410 are multi-channel I/O boards located in
an I/O subrack (for central location close to the controller) or as I/O units (for distributed
location). Also available are different distributed, autonomous units including I/O, for example
PLC-type controllers.

Functional Modularization
The concepts of basic function and optional function are sometimes used in the documentation
of the Advant Controller 410 system. A system can be provided with a number of optional
functions which enable you to adapt each system for specific control tasks. Certain functions
require extra software while others require both extra software and extra hardware.
The memory system containing the Advant Controller 410 functionality is modular. The fixed
standard system software is stored in one single flash PROM module, a program card.
Additional program cards containing specific function libraries can be developed and used.
When you order an Advant Controller 410, you select the desired function repertoire from a
library of program modules. These modules are factory assembled into a program card.
Available standard program modules with function library follow.
• Basic functions (always included):
– QC01-BAS11 Basic system
– (QC01-BOB11 Boot block).
• Additional functions:
– QC01-LIB11 Additional PC elements 1
– QC01-LIB12 Additional PC elements 2
– QC01-LOS11 MasterView 320
– QC01-OPF11 Operator functions support
– QC01-BAT11 MasterBatch 200/1 support
– QC01-UDP11 User Defined PC Elements.
Examples of other optional functions requiring extra hardware are communication between
controllers, positioning, digital input, and so on.
Product Variants
The Advant Controller 410 is a flexible system offered in several variants with respect to, for
example, redundancy, power supply, cabinetry, marshalling, and so on. You can find general
information regarding principles and capabilities in this manual, but no details of the different
product packages are included. Please refer to relevant tendering and sales documentation for
that information.
An exception from this is a special compact product variant of the Advant Controller 410 which
is briefly presented in Appendix H, Product Variants.
1.7.3.1 CPU
The central processing unit of the Advant Controller 410 comes in two versions with 4 or 8
Mbyte dynamic RAM. The versions are both designated Processor Module PM150V. A label on
module side states the RAM size (PM150V04 or PM150V08). A processor module is built up
around a microprocessor, Motorola 68020, running at 25 MHz.
In this User’s Guide the generic name PM150 is used all through.
On the module front, you can see indicators and a character display for high level system
diagnostics. The main operable equipment is a four-position rotary switch for start and
operating mode selection and a restart push button. See Chapter 4, Runtime Operation for more
information on these functions.
You can connect a configuration and maintenance tool on the module front.
1.7.3.2 Memory
The Processor Module PM150 contains the total amount of RAM (Random Access Memory),
which is a 4 or 8 Mbyte dynamic RAM with error correction code. This memory holds the
system program which is in use as well as the controller system configuration and application
program, that is all memory executed in run time.
The system program is described from the organizational viewpoint in Section 1.7.2, Product
Structure, under the heading Functional Modularization. The functional content is treated in the
next section, Section 1.7.3.3, Program Module Contents.

1. Only the presentation and dialog support are included in QC01-OPF11. The PC elements and corresponding data
base are included in QC01-BAS11 and QC01-LIB12.
1.7.3.5 Configuration
You configure the system in accordance with the hardware and software selected, for example,
the number of I/O boards, communication lines, functional units and PC programs. This is
performed using commands from a configuration tool such as the Advant Station 100 Series
Engineering Station and results in the internal organization and activation of the data base and
program areas.
Configuration/application building is introduced in Section 1.7.8.2, Principles of Application
Building.
1.7.3.6 Execution
The execution units in a PC program are normally given cycle times of 10 ms - 2 s (5 ms - 32 s
after reconfiguration). The internal program system (operating system and PC interpreter)
organizes the execution of the units with the periodicity selected, simultaneously performing
other tasks such as communication with a MasterView 320 and programming units.
Ordinarily, you can select the same cycle times for reading in values from digital and
analog boards.
1.7.3.7 Start-up
The CPU front panel has a rotary switch which you use to select start and working mode.
The normal position of the switch is AUTO. This means an automatic start when voltage is
switched on or when voltage is recovered after a power failure. At an interruption of voltage,
the system stores all the information necessary for restarting. Whether the system is to continue
operations from its status at the interruption of the voltage or if it is to be reset to zero before
restart is selected with parameters.
The different ways to start are CLEAR, STOP, AUTO or OFF LINE. The way to start is selected
on the basis of the duration of the voltage failure.
You can connect a control module which is activated when the voltage returns and which
executes one cycle to each start alternative. All start modules must belong to the same PC
program. You can define how the process is to start with these control modules. Alarm can also
be blocked at initialization of the I/O boards. Start-up features and their application are
described in AMPL Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series, Reference Manual.

Power Supply
The power supply units provide the regulators in the subracks with 24 V unstabilized d.c.
voltage. They can also be used to supply other circuits which do not require stabilized 24 V
voltage such as sensors, indicators, and so on.
There are certain restrictions on utilizing a common power supply for the system itself and
external equipment. Please refer to Section 3.1, Design Considerations.
Use duplicated voltage supply units to provide redundancy.
Varying requirements on power supply are met by a range of supply modules with different
technical data. You can select according to Table 1-11.
Voltage Regulation
All modules in the subracks are powered by 24 V unstabilized voltage and 5 V stabilized
voltage. 24 V is converted to 5 V by voltage regulators.
An I/O subrack housing an Advant Controller 410 can be equipped with a single voltage
regulator DSSR 122 or redundant regulators of the type DSSR 170. The number of DSSR 170 is
always three, two of which are needed with respect to capacity (n+1 redundancy).
Figure 1-14 and Figure 1-15 illustrate the two alternatives. These regulator modules are
installed on the rear of the I/O subrack.

Fusing
The fusing and electronic overload protection of the Advant Controller 410 and its main parts
are illustrated in Figure 1-12 and Figure 1-13.
Earthing
The signal processing electronics in Advant OCS are normally earthed to chassis and all
interference suppression for external signals refers to chassis. If this rule is broken, the system is
sensitive to high-frequency interference, mainly interference from unsuppressed relays, to
contactors and to discharge of static electricity.
Cabling represents a large portion of the cost of installing a process control system. In order to
reduce this cost, a range of distributable I/O units (S400 I/O and S800 I/O) are available
covering the most common process signal types. The distributable I/O units communicate with
the controller through MasterFieldbus (S400 I/O) and Advant Fieldbus 100 (S800 I/O).
It is, of course, possible to mix the different I/O systems in the same application, if you wish.
This manual gives an overall presentation of the I/O systems. Since the I/O systems are common
to several Advant Controller products, the detailed information is collected in separate
documents as follows.

Connection Unit
The connection unit consists of a circuit board which is to be located on a mounting bar in the
backplane of the cabinet. See example in Figure 1-18.
You can distribute the connection unit 3 - 15 m if you use shielded cables to join the I/O board.
Mounting bars are available in two models for 19-inch and 24-inch widths.
Connection units have different widths. For dimensions and other technical data, see the S100
I/O Hardware, Reference Manual.
A connection unit is provided with terminal blocks to connect external signal cables.
Normally, a connection unit has additional terminals for power distribution to sensors and
actuators. Generally, you can disconnect the terminals individually or group by group to isolate
the I/O channels from the process for fault tracing and test measurements.
Circuits for interference suppression, fuses and, for analog inputs, a shunt resistor, are located
on the connection unit. The shunt resistor is located so that you can replace an analog input
board without breaking any current loops.

Figure 1-18. Example of Connection Unit for S100 I/O in RM500 Cabinet
A connection unit relates to an I/O board in different ways. The basic arrangement is that one
connection unit corresponds to a specific I/O board. Sometimes two or more connection units
are used to adapt to a single I/O board application. For example, the need of different rated input
voltages to a digital input multi-channel board.
Two I/O boards of different categories (for example, DI and DO) are used to support an object
oriented type of connection unit. An object oriented connection unit facilitates the connection of
field cables without using any marshalling or process cable slit-up. Process objects like motors
and valves utilizing both ordering and indicating signals are joined with the control system in a
rational and uniform way. Figure 1-19 gives an example of application.

Mechanics
The mechanics components of the S800 I/O are characterized by the following features:
• Highly modularized mechanics with three or four basic parts:
– Communication Interface modules (or Field Communication Interface module),
– Optical Modulebus modem,
– S800L I/O modules including the field wiring termination, or
– I/O modules and field wiring termination Units (MTUs) (Module Termination Units)
which act as I/O module carriers.
The communication interface modules, Optical Modulebus modem, S800L I/O modules
and MTUs are mounted on standard DIN-mounting rails according to DIN EN50033-
35*15.
• All modules have plastic injection moulded enclosures which provide safety protection
degree IP20 according to IEC 529.
• I/O modules, except for S800L I/O modules where it is not applicable, are protected from
destruction by a mechanical keying arrangement if an attempt is made to insert a module type
in a position with a different key code than the factory set code of the I/O module. MTUs have
keys which are set to key code of its I/O module’s key code.
Modulebus
The Fieldbus Communication Interface module communicates with its I/O modules over the
Modulebus. The Modulebus can support up to 8 clusters, one base cluster and up to 7 I/O clusters.
The base cluster consists of a communication interface module and I/O modules. An I/O cluster
consist of an Optical Modulebus modem and I/O modules. The Optical Modulebus modems are
connected via optical cables to a optional Modulebus Optical port module on the communication
interface module. The maximum length of the Optical Modulebus expansion is dependent of the
number of Optical Modulebus modems. The maximum length between two clusters is 15 m
(50 ft.) with plastic fibre and 200 m (667 ft.) with glass fibre. Factory made optical cables (plastic
fibre) are available in lengths of 1.5, 5 and 15 m (5, 16 or 49 ft.). The Optical Modulebus
expansion can be build up in two ways, a ring or a duplex communication.
Within a cluster the Modulebus is made up of increments integrated into each Module
Termination Unit (MTU) or S800L I/O module. Each communication interface module and
Optical Modulebus modem has a Modulebus outlet connector to connect to a MTU or S800L I/O
module. A MTU or S800L I/O module has a bus inlet and a bus outlet connector. By adding, on
the DIN rail, a MTU or S800L I/O module to a communication interface module or an Optical
Modulebus modem, the bus is automatically expanded, offering optional further expansion of
MTUs or S800L I/O modules to a maximum of 12 modules. Unique position codes are
automatically assigned to each MTU or S800L I/O module as the bus is expanded. Through the
incremental bus design the physical size of an S800 I/O installation is directly proportional to the
number of installed MTUs or S800L I/O modules.
MTUs and their associated I/O modules or S800L I/O modules can within a cluster be set up in
two or three physically separated groups with extension cable adaptors which fit to the bus outlet
and inlet connectors of communication interface modules, Optical Modulebus modem and
MTUs or S800L I/O modules. The factory made extensions cables which plug into the cable
adaptors are available in lengths of 0.3, 0.6 and 1.2 m (1, 2 or 4 ft.), allowing together with up to
12 I/O modules, for a total bus length of 2,5 meters (8.2 ft.).
The S800 I/O modules, except S800L I/O modules, can be inserted and removed from MTUs
without disturbing system operation. The physical lock which locks an I/O module to its MTU
allows I/O module removal only when the lock is in its unlock position. The locking mechanism
also acts as a logic lock so that an I/O module is operable only when the lock is in the locked
position. If the lock is in its unlocked position, output channels are de-energized and I/O modules
can be inserted/removed without need to remove system or field power.
The MTUs are totally passive units and all active circuitry is allocated to the I/O module.
I/O Interfaces
A range of I/O modules is available covering analog, pulse and digital signals of various types.
Interfaces for RTDs and TCs of various types and modules with intrinsically safe interface and
HART communication are available.
The S800 system provides I/O modules with typically 2, 4, 8 or 16 channels depending on type
and ratings of the individual module.
All I/O modules are supervised at system start-up as well as under normal operation. The status
of a module is indicated with front mounted LEDs; RUN (R), green, normal operation, FAULT
(F), red, when a fault is detected, WARNING (W), yellow, when a channel fault is detected and
OUTPUT SET AS PREDETERMINED (OSP), yellow, when the module has lost
communication. Detailed status and diagnostics are available on the System Status Displays of
the Operator Station.
All I/O modules can be replaced with both system power and field power connected.
Digital Modules
The digital I/O modules all have galvanic isolation relative to chassis ground. All modules have
LEDs to indicate channel status (on/off) and the standard set of module status indicators. Some
modules has also a LED per channel indicating fault.
24 V and 48V modules have two isolated groups with 8 channels.each Each group has a field
power status input to indicate presence of field power. Loss of field power is indicated on
Warning LED and channel status set to error. 120/250 V and modules with intrinsically safe
interface modules have individually isolated channels. The input module can be configured to
monitor field power status. Outputs do not need external inductive load suppression components.
Table 1-21. S800 Digital Modules
Analog Modules
The analog I/O modules all have galvanic isolation relative to chassis ground in a group of 4 or
8 channels. The modules have the standard set of module status indicators.
Open circuit detection is available for inputs and outputs configured for 4…20 mA and for the
RTD and TC inputs.
NOTE
At least one DP820-O PC element must be used for each DP820 module to
achieve proper functionality in all situations for AC 400 Series.

Power Supplies
The power supplies SD811 and SD812 (24 V output) can be used to power processor modules
and S800 I/O modules, through the processor unit and to power 24 V field circuits (optional).
The supplies have a wide input voltage range, nominally 110V-240 V without input voltage range
selection. The primary side can connect to industrial mains installation class III (IEC664).
The outputs are short circuit proof and can operate with resistive, capacitive and constant power
loads, for example, switched mode power converters.
The outputs of the supplies can be connected in parallel to increase power, 2 x SD811 or
2 x SD812, or be configured for redundant mains to increase availability, 2 x SD811 or
2 x SD812. Each supply has a power OK signal which can connect to the SA or SB inputs of the
communication interface modules or Optical Modulebus modem to monitor power status in 1:1
redundant mains configurations.
1.7.7 Communication
System communication resources are primarily treated in Section 1.7.7.1, Provided Link Types.
You will find an enumeration of the main applications of these communication links in Advant
Controller 410 in this section.
MasterBus 300 is based on the IEEE 802.2 class 1 connection-less unconfirmed data link
service protocol and IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision
Detection) medium access control. In short, this means that there is no specific master station,
but all stations/controllers have equal access to the bus. A connection-oriented transport
protocol according to ISO class 4 ensures flow control and reliability.
Use MasterBus 300E (Extended) when communicating via bridges (and radio links, satellites,
and so on) to interconnect MasterBus 300 networks. The communication bridges must conform
to the IEEE 802,3 standard. The characteristics of MasterBus 300E are the same as for
MasterBus 300 except that the communication parameters can be tuned to allow communication
over links, which introduces delays and limits the bandwidth.
The MasterBus 300/MasterBus 300E separates the communication function within a
station/controller. You can expand or reconfigure the control network without any changes to
the application in the controllers or operator’s stations. The network is self-configured, that is
no configuration of the data base is required. The configurator sets network and node identity on
hardware.
The transmission rate is 10 Mbits/s.
To also ensure availability of data communication when a cable or a communication unit fails,
you can duplicate MasterBus 300/MasterBus 300E.

Explanations
1) Mainly recipe data and report data are sent.
2) Configuration data transfer.
3) The control of d.c. motors in a drive system is integrated in the converter, which involves a
considerable exchange of signals with Advant Controller 410. A special communication
package implemented in the converter makes this adaptation possible.
4) EXCOM also provides reading of object data of the type AI, AO, DI, DO (Analog
Input/Output, Digital Input/Output). This is utilized by the given product.
5) The main use of a printer for generating reports is described in Section 1.7.8.3, Control
Functions, under the heading Reports.
6) Read/write process I/O data.
R, I, B indicates Real, Integer and Boolean data, respectively. Bi-directional information flow is
possible.
E indicates handling of time-stamped events. Events are defined and time-stamped in the central
I/O of Advant Controller 410 or in distributed units of the type Advant Controller 110 and
Advant Controller 70. Advant Controller 410 sends the information to operator stations for
presentation in lists. High accuracy in time.
EA also indicates handling of time-stamped events. Events originated in certain distributed
units are time-stamped in the Advant Controller 410. Time delay due to communication must be
reflected. When Data Set is used a supporting application program is needed in Advant
Controller 410. Advant Controller sends the information to operator station for presentation in
lists. Less accuracy in time.
S indicates subscription of data from the Advant Controller 410 data base. It is requested by an
operator station or a similar station. A subscription is normally an object-oriented, complex
package of mixed data used for presentation purposes.
C indicates command signals, for example complex commands including several parameters or
increase/decrease, start/stop, and so on from an operator station or similar device.
Data Set
Information is exchanged between separate controllers (and between a controller and other
equipment indicated in Table 1-27) by means of “Data Sets,” that is messages containing
aggregates of data base information. Data Sets are explicitly specified in the communicating
controllers, as part of the application programming.
With a Data Set, the communication normally transmits cyclically between the nodes.
The cyclic time is configurable.
In addition to Data Set, other variants exist, for example MVI Set, Data Set Peripheral.
A Text Set is a type of Data Set. With a Text Set, you can send text between controllers/process
stations of the type Advant Controller 410/450 and MasterPiece 200/1 using MasterBus 300.
Transmission of a Text Set is commanded from a PC program.
For a detailed description of Data Set and Text Set, see the reference manual AMPL
Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series.
General
Process control applications are programmed in the ABB Master Programming Language
(AMPL), a function-block language with graphic representation which has been developed
especially for process control applications. The language is characterized in this way: each
function is seen as a building block with inputs and outputs. The function of such a block can be
simple, such as a logic AND function, or complex, such as a complete PID regulator. A program
written in AMPL is referred to as a PC (process control) program, and the building blocks are
called PC elements. The range of ready-to-use function blocks is wide and powerful.
You can program a controller in AMPL fully on-line with the programs running and controlling
the process. If required, you can block part of a PC program, a complete PC program or the
whole controller during programming. You can also develop programs off-line in an
engineering station and load them into the controller at a later stage.
In addition to functional PC elements, AMPL contains a number of structural elements for
division of a PC program into suitable modules which can be managed and executed
individually. You can give the modules different cycle times and priorities so that both fast and
slow control operations can be managed by the same PC program.
The inputs and outputs of an element are connected to the inputs and outputs of other elements
or to process I/O points. Picking these elements and making these connections constitutes the
programming work. The resulting PC program can then be documented graphically, which
Figure 1-38 illustrates.
When a dedicated station is used for programming, it can be connected, either directly to the
controller to be programmed, or indirectly via another controller in the communications
network. For remote access, the public telephone network can be used.
Signals are represented in engineering units throughout the whole application program.
This facilitates the configuration work, especially in connection to arithmetic operations. It also
simplifies reading and understanding of the graphical documentation of the application
program.
Scaling of an I/O signal from an electrical variable, for example, 4 - 20 mA, to a variable
expressed in engineering units is made in the data base for the point.

Type Circuits
To boost application programming productivity even further, the engineering stations support
the use of type circuits, that is, control solutions that are repeated frequently in an application
area or in a specific application project. For instance, a type circuit may comprise all the
functions required to control motors of a certain type, or pumps, valves, temperature loops, and
so on, including all the necessary controller data base definitions for I/O and operator
communication.

Arithmetic
Standard arithmetic expressions as well as special functions are available.
Positioning
Positioning is a general term for position measurement and position control of d.c. and a.c.
motors and hydraulically and pneumatically servo-controlled mechanisms in industry.
A special circuit board, DSDP 140A, is used together with a suitable pulse transmitter such as
QGFA 110, QGFA 110 V or the equivalent. (It is also possible to connect other transducers.)
The circuit board communicates directly with PC elements for rapid positioning in which the
pulse generator is used for feedback of actual values. A processor is provided on the circuit
board for the fast calculation in the inner loop of the positioning system. The positioning board
has a flexible design and is intended to perform several functions, together with different PC
elements:
• POS-A(0) Length measurement
• POS-A(1) Positioning with analog output signal
• POS-O(0) Positioning with digital output signal for three speeds
• POS-O(1) Positioning with digital output signal which can be pulsed
• POS-L Length measurement with digital output signal with coincidence.
The following functions and properties are available:
• Position measurement via an incremental pulse transmitter and a direction discriminator
and a hardware counter which updates a software counter at regular intervals.
• Three pulse inputs adapted for the ABB pulse generator QGFA 110: A channel, B channel
and STROBE. Maximum frequency 80 kHz.
• Analog output for speed reference, 11 bits + sign. 0 to ±10 V or 0 to ±20 mA.
• Position control ON-OFF with fast, medium-speed or slow retardation to the interval
“correct position.” Position control ON-OFF with pulsed control. At low speed, the output
signal is not constant but is pulsed forward to the “correct position” with pulse lengths
varying with the deviation from the “correct position.”
• Functions on the board are supervised by means of self-testing. Faults are indicated by the
illumination of LEDs on the board.
For a detailed explanation of the positioning system, see the manual Positioning System.
Reports
The report function permits you to connect a printer to the Advant Controller 410 system to
print out simple reports.

and PC elements. Values, date and time are transformed into text strings.

As an alternative to a controller-connected printer, you can use the facilities from a large
operator station (Advant Station 500 Series, MasterView 800/1). Actually, this is the most
common way of printing information from any station in a control network. Advanced reports
can be arranged from the contents and layout viewpoint. Also, you can use a local operator
station for reports. In the latter case, the display information from a MasterView 320 is printed
out. Once the report/display is configured, it is possible to remove the MasterView 320. In other
words, MasterView 320 in such an application can be used as a configuration tool only.
For further information regarding report generation in operator stations, see the appropriate
separate documentation.
Supervision
Process supervision has an important role in a control system like Advant Controller 410.
Any logic state transition in the process or application program, or any limit transition of a
process variable or complex calculated variable, can be defined as a point of event.
Events can be time-stamped with a resolution down to 1 ms, which enables you to perform
excellent analyses of the causes and effects in complex situations.
Events can be defined further as alarm points. The operator’s attention can be drawn by audible
signal or a flashing light requiring acknowledgment. Such handling can be built up in an
application program with the support of the powerful FAULT element. An operator station
which is part of the MasterView 800/1 or Advant Station 500 Series provides powerful ready-to-
use event and alarm handling.
Measuring
You can connect process variables with different electrical representations as follows:
• Standard signal types, 4 - 20 mA, 0 - 10 V.
• Pt 100, Thermocouple
• Pulse, Frequency.
Pre-filtering is important in digital systems to obtain interference-free control and logging.
The irrelevant frequency content in the process signals must be limited.
Standard signals for current and voltage are pre-filtered in steep active hardware filters whereas
temperature measurement signals are filtered by integrating A/D conversion. In addition to
hardware filtration, the software can select digital filtration with single pole filters and with the
required break frequency.
In the case of temperature measurement, linearization is performed in accordance with the type
of Pt 100 transducer or thermocouple selected. Linearization through root extraction, for
example with pressure difference measurement, can be selected if required.
Feedback Control
Powerful functions for feedback control are provided with a great number of PC elements and
functional units. Examples of applications are:
• Basic PID control
• Cascade-coupled controllers
• Ratio control
• Manual control from central/local operator’s workplace
• Controlling final elements with two- or three-position action
• Override control
• Batch control
• Split range
• Gain scheduling or other adaptation strategies
• User-defined control strategies combining the range of available algorithms P, PI, PDP,
PIP, DER, INT, FILT-1P/2P, P-DEADB and RAMP.
The built-in features in one of the complex loop controllers, the functional unit PIDCON, are:
• Several control modes with built-in priority scheduling
• Automatic tracking for bumpless control mode changeover
• Cascade inputs
• Differentiation, either of the measured value or the control deviation
• Parameter scheduling
• Forcing control of the output signal
• Limitation of set-point and output with respect to amplitude and rate of change
• Limit supervision with event and alarm handling
• Powerful operator interface.
It is easy to combine such a loop controller with supplementary functions, for example
interlocking, start-up and shut-down sequences, calculations, process optimization, and so on.
Drives Integration
For large control systems, built on Advant Controller 450, the connection to ACS 600 drive
systems is made via Advant Fieldbus 100. Each fieldbus node connects up to 24 drives through
an optical ring.

The operator support in AdvaCommand includes a number of drive specific displays and
dialogs as well as the possibility to use functions such as system status, alarm and event
handling and trend curves.
In order to minimize engineering efforts, a predefined type circuit is offered. It consists of
control logic for a drive in a system with Advant Controller 410.
Free-programmable Module
For further information, see Section 1.7.4, Free-Programmable Module.
Mimic Panel
Two alternatives are possible:
• Panel units, for example numeric display, keyboard, function keyboard, push button and
thumbwheel connected via Modbus protocol.
• ABB Active Mimic Controller.
An Active Mimic Controller module makes it possible to control active mimic panels from
an Advant Controller 410 via one or more RCOM links.You can use the module for local
collection of inputs from push-button switches (PBs), for updating of LEDs or lamps, and
for control of an alphanumeric text display.
The display unit displays a number of text strings with 20 or 40 characters. These text
strings are programmed according to the customer’s specification and located in a text-
PROM on the Active Mimic Controller module.
You place the module in large control room mimic panels or in traditional control desks,
or use it for small distributed operator panels in the process area.
Dynamic variables with optional appearance which are presented on the display screen are
varied by the PC program via the data base and can consist of real numbers, integers or Boolean
variables. The operator can intervene in the process by changing, via the keyboard, the data
presented in the display.
You can also program, directly from the MasterView 320, certain keys to give signals to/from
the PC program, which in turn can affect the process directly. MasterView 320 is provided with
an event-handling function which permits the storage of up to 100 events for each terminal.
Of these events, 16 can be presented on the display screen at one time. The event messages are
sent to the MasterView 320 terminal and can be programmed with a special PC element,
EVENT. You can present the event list on a display and/or you can obtain a copy of the event
list as a printout if required. Dialog and error texts associated with the MasterView 320 function
can be presented in different languages, which can be defined with the configuration tool.
Figure 1-44 below shows a monochrome VT 100 terminal with keyboard.

1.7.9.4 Printer
You can obtain printouts of reports, generated in the report function, or paper copies of event
lists, when a MasterView 320 is included with a printer connected to an Advant Controller.
For further information on the primary use of a printer for generating reports,
see Section 1.7.8.3, Control Functions, under the heading Reports.
The printer requirement specification is given in Section 3.2.6.3, Printer.
1.7.10.1 Diagnostics
System level diagnostics, including the Advant Controller 410, have an error reporting and
indicating structure that makes use of system messages, console diagnostic displays and LED
status indicators to indicate the status of hardware.
Comprehensive system diagnostics not only detect problems, but also let an operator know
where a problem is located. The diagnostic features of the system provide for timely, reliable
detection and notification of both software and hardware errors.
The diagnostic philosophy for the Advant OCS is that single-fault situations are detected and
processed.
The diagnostics support the maintenance philosophy of fault isolation and replacement down to
module or subassembly level.
A survey of the fault announcement in Advant Controller 410 follows. The diagnostics built in
to different modules and system functions are mentioned briefly. You can also find more
information on LED indications, and so on, in connection to module descriptions. For a detailed
description of the use of diagnostics, among other things, see Chapter 5, Maintenance.
Run/Alarm Relay
The Advant Controller 410 provides a collective run/alarm relay included in the Backup Power
Supply SB171. The indicating contact can be reached via a connector on the module. Within the
limits of electrical data, you can use this contact in any desired application function, for
example, creating an audible alarm or interlocking certain process objects in the event of a
controller safety shut-down.
The main reasons for de-energizing the alarm relay and opening the alarm contact are:
• Fatal Error in CPU and memory
• Fatal Error in program execution
• Loss of power supply in the I/O subrack housing the processor module
• Switch over depending on loss of communication on S100 I/O bus extension if
redundancy.
NOTE
Only a single contact function per processor module is available. They are
normally closed but are open when there is an error.
LED Indicators
Most of the replaceable hardware modules are equipped with LED indicators.
A green LED indicates running.
A red LED indicates fault.
Some modules provide additional yellow LEDs for increased maintainability, for example send
and receive information on communication modules.
Supervision Module
The backup power supply performs certain system supervision.
A connector of the Backup Power Supply SB171 provides the connection of one extra user-
defined supervisory signal (24 V). You can use it, for example, for optional fan supervision.
The signal cable may not be extended outside the controller cabinets due to the risk of
interference.
1.7.10.2 Redundancy
In general, the following subsystems and functions are available with redundancy:
• Mains distribution network
• Voltage supply, 24 V
• Voltage regulation, 5 V
• Network communication
• GCOM
• MVI (MultiVendor Interface) communication
• RCOM
• MasterFieldbus
• Advant Fieldbus 100
• I/O module.
You can add redundancy within a specific controller in a flexible way to meet the desired
demands upon system availability.
The controller utilizes different principles of redundancy for included subsystems. Both hot
stand-by and independent parallel operation are used. Duplicated hardware is primarily used in
what is known as 1:1 implementation.
Maintainability is always provided by diagnostics, fault announcement and adequate unit
exchangeability. For short descriptions regarding certain redundant functions, see below.
Power Supply, 24 V
Duplicated power supply units for 24 V d.c., secondarily wired by diodes, are utilized.
This is the same redundancy solution as for mains distribution network. The wiring diodes are
distributed to the Voting Unit DSSS 171.
Voltage Regulation, 5 V
The stabilized 5 V supply is organized as n+1 parallel voltage controller modules sharing the
load current. The n modules are required to meet the demand. The extra module gives what is
known as n+1 redundancy. In the event of a single failure, the full responsibility is bumplessly
taken over by the remaining equipment.
The n is equal to 2 in the standardized Advant Controller 410.
The 5 V supply is distributed as single supply to each module.
Processor Module
Processor module redundancy is not available in Advant Controller 410.
Network Communication
Network communication redundancy is available.
Duplicated communication submodules are used.
From a functional viewpoint, the redundant networks work in a hot stand-by implementation.
This means that the primary network has the communication responsibility. The secondary
network stands by to take over in case of a fault in the primary network. In the stand-by mode of
operation, basic messages for diagnostics are continuously sent and received.
GCOM
The information given above for the network communication is also applicable to GCOM.
MasterFieldbus
The communication to a remote unit can be equipped with transmission media redundancy.
This includes:
• One communication interface submodule in the controller
• Two cables including duplicated modems
• One remote unit.
I/O Module
The controller primarily uses single process functions, for example transmitter, valve, or switch.
However, for the categories analog input and analog output, there are special I/O modules which
can be duplicated. Different requirements for single loop integrity or signal redundancy are met.
Please refer to Section 1.7.6.1, S100 I/O.
Duplicated hardware is kept together in the data base as one object. From a maintainability
viewpoint, duplicated hardware is handled individually. Functionally, the redundancy is,
however, invisible to the control application program. Duplicated hardware is wired in a
common terminal panel or connection unit.
You can mix redundant and non-redundant I/O modules in any application-adapted way.

The principle of redundancy is hot stand-by or parallel operation, depending on the design of
each module. For example, analog inputs use hot stand-by. Analog outputs use parallel
operation.
1.7.11 Mechanics
1.7.11.1 Cabinets
Cabinet Features
Figure 1-47 shows a cabinet of the RM500 type. Features and applications are listed below:
• Entrance to the rear of the cabinet is not necessary. Controller hardware is physically
installed and electrically connected from the front.
Certain equipment, like the S100 I/O subrack, is mounted in a hinged frame in the cabinet.
This enables entrance and possible maintenance and repair of parts of the subrack which
are only accessible from the rear, for example, units for voltage regulation.
• The cabinet front door is hung at either the left-hand or the right-hand side adapted to the
final cabinet configuration determined at the design. Please check that the position of the
hinges is acceptable with respect to the final location of the cabinets on site.
• A double door variant is available for the RM500V1. It is standard starting from
AC410*1.5/2.
• Process wiring usually enters through the floor of the cabinet.
• Normally, there are no intermediate walls between cabinets designated to one controller
installation.
Intermediate walls are used between different controllers in a row of cabinets or between a
controller and other equipment to suppress interference.
Environmental Adaptation
RM500 cabinets are available with the following degree of protection ratings according to
IEC529; IP21, IP41 or IP54.
Independent of the protection rating, the controller subrack is, for cooling purposes, always
equipped with a fan unit.
IP21, the basic version of the cabinet, is ventilated by openings in the lower and upper end of
the door.
IP41 is ventilated by openings in the lower and upper end of the door. The openings are covered
by netting with openings 1mm2 or less.
NOTE
A heating element is mounted in the bottom of the IP41 cabinet. This heating
element shall be activated when the equipment in the cabinet is inactive.
The sealing in IP54 results in a decrease of permitted power dissipation compared to IP21 and
IP41. Please refer to Section B.6, Permitted Power Dissipation. Actions must be taken in certain
applications, for example, a heat exchanger can be installed.
Electro Magnetic Compatibility and CE-marking
Advant Controller 410 meets the requirement specified in EMC Directive 89/336/EEC and in
Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC provided appropriate cabinetry is used. You should request
for compliance and CE-marking when you order the equipment. You can obtain CE-marking for
all standard cabinets.
For further information about the environmental immunity, including EMC qualities with or
without CE-marking, please refer to the data sheet “ABB Master Environmental Immunity”.
Cabinet Configuration
There is a maximum of one S100 I/O subrack in the Advant Controller 410. Depending on the
need for space for connection units, the controller installation consists of up to two cabinets.
The I/O subrack with the controller is always installed in the left-hand cabinet.
A single or a double cabinet is used.
The I/O subrack with the controller is mounted in a swing sub-frame while the connection units
for the different I/O boards are mounted in the rear backplane. Use the 24-inch installation
width for the connection units.
Figure 1-48 shows a typical cabinet configuration in a RM500V1 cabinet.
The location of subracks, connection units and power supply equipment is standardized.
However, the design is always adapted to the actual application and shown in the delivery-
specific documentation.
All units in the cabinet are identified in accordance with the item designation system used for
the Advant OCS products. See Appendix D, Item Designations

Chapter 2 Installation
This chapter contains guidelines for planning the installation of your Advant Controller system,
see Section 2.1, Site Planning Environment. In addition, this chapter also describes the concrete
installation procedures on site, specific to Advant Controller 410, see Section 2.2, Setup.
This chapter does not, however, provide a complete list of measures to take with respect to
environment and other conditions on site. The equipment should be adapted to the actual
application by way of thoroughly accomplished system definition, ordering and design. You can
find descriptions of alternative solutions, design considerations, elsewhere in this manual.
Since each Advant Controller system is designed to meet your specific requirements, there is no
standard configuration that describes every system. Therefore, certain areas of the following
instructions are meant only as a guide for planning your specific installation. However, some of
the information covers specific requirements for proper system and equipment operation - you
cannot modify these requirements. The difference between a recommendation and a
requirement is clearly defined as necessary.
Installation of options is often described in dedicated user’s guides. For information about
available documents corresponding to desired options, see Section 1.4, Related Documentation.
All information given in this chapter relates to standardized models. Where alternatives exist,
a typical alternative is described.
• The free space in front of cabinets. Also reflect on how much space is required to fully
open either a left-hand or right-hand hinged cabinet door (both exist). There must always
be space left for safety reasons even with open doors.
• Spare area for future enlargement of the equipment.
• A well-developed process connection, with or without marshalling facilities.
• Grounding by an effective net of copper bars.
• Cable routing with respect to installation rules.
• Availability of power and other utilities.
• Standards and legal regulations to be followed.
The following sections examine some of these factors in detail and provide recommendations
and requirements as necessary.
General
The Advant Controller system is designed for a demanding industrial environment. Alternative
cabinetry is available for different degrees of protective rating (IP21, IP41, IP54). Interference
from electrical sources is suppressed by a suitable solid design and particular installation rules.
Equipment is to be located in a control room or an electric room or distributed in the process
area.
The common requirements for the building where the system is to be stored or installed are:
NOTE
The building should provide an environment such that established
environmental conditions are not normally exceeded.
The environmental conditions which Advant OCS products are designed to withstand, during
storage and transport as well as during operation, are specified in a separate environmental data
sheet. Limit values are given to: Corrosive gases, Temperature, Vibration, Moisture, Electro-
Magnetic Compatibility, and so on.
Most applications need no special arrangement. Standard cabinetry and installation according to
the rules suffice. Occasionally, you must consider special protection with respect to particular
situations.
Sealed cabinets are a good basic solution to prevent damage to electronic equipment from,
for example, corrosive gases, moisture and dust. However, sealing prevents the normal cooling
resulting from self-convection or forced cooling by a fan. In turn, this reduces, to a large extent,
the heat dissipation permitted in a cabinet.
Temperature
It is important to note the temperature within cabinets and in the surrounding environment and
atmosphere. Lower temperatures mean increased system reliability and availability.
The lives of wet, electrolytic capacitors and most semiconductors are greatly reduced if the
maximum permitted temperatures are exceeded.
For more information on design considerations, see Section 3.1.11.2, Heat Dissipation
Permitted in Cabinets.
Vibration
The cabinets must stand on a stable floor, deck or supporting structure, free from vibrations.
If the system equipment is installed in a control room adjacent to large machinery such as
shakers or large presses, where frequent major vibrations occur, shock absorbers or an isolation
pad may be required to protect the system equipment. Shock absorbers normally protect the
equipment from sustained low-level vibrations (vibrations that are perceptible, but not
excessive). If vibrations or shock are a major problem, consider more extreme measures to
alleviate the problem.
Cabinetry
According to information given in the ordering documentation, Advant Controller 410 shall be
located in a EMC-proof cabinetry. Please note that the requirement is valid to controller cabinet,
I/O cabinet and connection unit cabinet, if separated.
Standard cabinet RM500 is EMC-proof in its basic design for protection class IP21, IP41,
and IP54.
Open compartment is not permitted for any part of the controller and its I/O including
distributed connection units.
Immunity against electromagnetic fields can generally be guaranteed with the cabinet
containing metallic doors only.
Arrangement of Cabinets
Advant OCS mounted in a RM500 cabinet, can be set up side by side with other cabinet types
and other equipment types, but the cabinet side plates must be ordered or not be removed if
included at the delivery.
Where several electronics cabinets of the same type, related to one controller with
S100 I/O, are to be set up in the same row, however, it is permissible to leave out or remove the
side plates between the cabinets.
General
• Advant Controller 410 ordered on one set of price lists, is designed with cabinets that are
to be placed side by side (no plates between the cabinets).
• Advant Controller 410 is delivered in a single or double cabinet.
• Configuration is according to Figure 2-1.

2.1.5 Grounding
Grounding in General
The signal processing electronics in Advant OCS, as well as all interference suppression for
external signals, are normally directly grounded to chassis and plant earth.
The plant earth potential must be stable and well defined, even in the event of ground fault in
low- and high-voltage equipment or lightning stroke. This claim for a grounding system is
common to the high-voltage equipment. The earth line joining the grounding systems should be
≥35 mm2 Cu.

≥35 mm2
Protective Earth
Always provide Advant OCS cabinets supplied with 230 V a.c. with a protective earth.
2.1.6 Cables
When you are planning for the cable routing in the plant and selecting suitable cables to use,
there are some restrictions and rules to follow. These touch upon, among other things:
• The distance between Advant OCS cables and non-Advant OCS cables.
• The routing of communication cables.
• Mixing of signals and signal types within cables.
• The need for shielded cables.
For further information, please refer to the general document, Interference-free Electronics
Design and Applications, which also gives examples for choosing cables.
All cables are normally guided into a cabinet from below.
General
Normally, supply voltage to Advant OCS supply units and for field equipment can be obtained
from the plant a.c. or d.c. supply.
A summary of the main requirements of the supply from a planning viewpoint follows.
Primarily an A, B and C network should be available as applicable.
Supply A and B refer to redundant networks.
Supply C is feeding the battery backup unit and modems which use a.c. power supply. In the
tropical cabinet version the heating element is also included.
Supply C is always an a.c. supply, regardless of whether a.c. or d.c. is utilized otherwise.
Preferably supply C should be an uninterruptable power supply. In situations where redundant
network A/B is used you can order a power distribution unit, SV542/543, which includes a
selector relay and an isolation transformer. The relay selects between, for example network A
and B and the transformer makes a secondary grounding of the network possible (adaption
class III/class II).
Class II, class III states the network quality with respect to for example, level of disturbances,
voltage variations, and so on. (according to IEC standards). Class II denotes higher quality than
class III.
You can use power supply units made by other vendors for, for example sensor supply, and
locate those units in an I/O cabinet. Such units must satisfy interference requirements in
accordance with the relevant standards in the same test classes as the Advant OCS equipment
and they must be CE-marked if equipment is going to be used within the EU and EFTA area.
Safety Switch
Close to the controller installation, there should be a safety switch enabling total power supply
disconnection of the equipment. This means a common switch for all supply voltages,
for example networks A, B and C discussed above.
The main use of the safety switch is to disconnect the power supply in a clear and safe way
during work in the cabinet.
Install the safety switch in a visible place (outside any cabinetry) within 3 m of the controller
installation.
a.c. Supply
Essential information includes:
• For the supply A (and redundant B) class II or class III a.c. networks can be used
alternatively as a standard solution.
• For the supply C there are different options. Select a suitable power distribution unit with
respect to available class II and class III networks and your requirement on redundancy.
See Table 1-10.
• Single and return (class II), as well as two-phase (class III) connection, of a standard
controller are possible.
d.c. Supply
Essential information includes:
• When using a d.c. supply, only battery-supplied systems with a non-grounded battery can
be used for direct supply of Advant OCS. With this type of supply, the battery is grounded
in the Advant OCS equipment.
• Supply from a grounded battery requires an isolating d.c./d.c. convertor.
• Supply C is always an a.c. supply, see heading above.
Protective Earth
Always provide Advant OCS cabinets supplied with 230 V a.c. with a protective earth.
Consider such an alternative at an early stage in the design to ensure that it is located in the
cabinet to give optimum cable lengths.
Wiring is routed to different transducers and loads in the installation from the marshalling.
It is important that the leads to and from a transducer for an electric signal be in the same cable.
This requirement means that it is logical to distribute the voltage supply and the neutral from the
controller or marshalling. The costs of cable and cable installation work can often be reduced by
routing a multi-core cable to coupling boxes mounted nearby, from which cables can be
connected to individual objects. More detailed voltage distribution and object fusing is possible
in a coupling box than in a connection unit. The fusing used in the connection unit can then be
dimensioned to protect the cable in the event of a short circuit.

To ensure adequate ventilation, there should be a free space, 150 mm high, between the top of
the cabinet and the ceiling or the underside of any beam, duct or similar structure over the
cabinet. When cables enter the cabinet from above, the space available should be at least
1000 mm high to provide working space.
The distance between the rear and the sides of the cabinet and an adjacent wall shall be no less
than 40 mm. This also ensures good ventilation.
If hinged frames or front doors of end cabinets are to open fully without touching adjacent
walls, increase the distance as follows:
• At hinged side of hinged frame
– cabinet RM500V1 - 300 mm (11.8”)
– cabinet RM500V2 - 350 mm (13.8”).
• At hinged side of single door cabinet
– cabinet RM500V1 - 760 mm (29.9”)
– cabinet RM500V2 - 660 mm (26.0”).
• At hinged side of double door cabinet
– cabinet RM500V1 - 382 mm (15.0”).
The free space in front of the cabinet should be the width of the door plus the width of the aisle.
If a double door alternative is used, reflect the space required for any hinged frame. There must
always be space left for safety reasons even with open doors or frames bent outwards.
For dimensions of the RM500 cabinet type, see Appendix B, RM500 Cabinet - Data Sheet.
You can also find the estimated weight of a cabinet in that section.
NOTE
Please, observe lifting instructions enclosed with the cabinet!
Store cabinets in a dry place, protected against dust.
2.2 Setup
The goal of this section is to tell you “how to” set up the product.
Follow the sequence of activities prior to power-up described below.
It is assumed that the equipment is assembled and delivered in type RM500 cabinets. If you are
using other types of cabinets, see separate documentation regarding questions such as proper
levelling and how to screw cabinets together.
The equipment to be set up is ordered for and adapted to a specific application. When process
I/O Series 100 is used, the delivery is normally comprised of several cabinets (single or double)
which are to be placed side by side.
Apply the setup instructions with respect to the specific design!
See Section 2.2.1, Safety Regulations through Section 2.2.7, Power Supply Connection for
general information, followed by individual setup descriptions for different parts of the
automation system. You can find this information under the following headings, if relevant:
• Assembly
• Electric Installation (including Power Supply)
• Functional Measures
• Preparation for Start-up.
Ordinary installation drawings, terminal diagram forms and connection documents for site
preparation and installation of electrical equipment also apply.
Necessary Outfit
The following kit is a minimum requirement:
• Ordinary hand tools.
• Universal instrument, for example digital multimeter.
• Test leads with 4 mm banana contacts and reducer contacts for a 2 mm test jack.
• Necessary parts of the documentation listed in Section 1.4, Related Documentation.
• Specific documentation enclosed at delivery, drawings and so on.
DANGER - CAUTION
Observe the following:
• Use only approved hoisting equipment when lifting cabinets. See lifting instructions
enclosed with the cabinet.
• Never switch on the voltage supply of the cabinet during installation work.
• Work with care when supply voltage is applied in the system. The voltage in the
cabinet can cause injury and can even kill a human being.
• Make sure that everyone working on the installation knows the location of the safety
switch and the main power supply switch to the Advant Controller 410 equipment and how
to use it.
• When the subsections of the process are checked and a test run has been performed,
a responsible person is to check out interlocking chains, and so on.
Inform all assembly personnel about test runs to be performed.
• Process technicians are to be present when testing and operating the process objects.
• Never press the system ENTER (initialization) button if you do not know what happens in
the system with an initialization (see Section 2.4, Start-up Procedures). The command
RECONFIG is equivalent to an ENTER in the CLEAR mode.
That is a cold start takes place.
• Remember that the control system can be controlled from an engineering station connected
at another node via a MasterNet. For example it can be stopped, configured and started
remotely.
• Remember that an Advant Controller 410 starts automatically when voltage is applied if
this is not prevented by means of the data base element START. You can also prevent start-
up of an Advant Controller 410 by setting the START MODE selector in the STOP
position.
CAUTION
Observe the following safety rules:
• Avoid discharges of static electricity by grounding both yourself and tools before handling
circuit boards and other parts of the equipment.
• Use the grounded wristband installed in the cabinet when handling parts of the system.
• Handle the circuit boards carefully, particularly those which contain MOS components
which can be damaged by static electricity discharges. Note the warning label on the
circuit boards.
• Use, as far as possible, the grounded wristband when handling boards not stored in
envelopes of conductive plastic. This gives optimum protection against static electricity
discharges.
• Always store circuit boards in envelopes of conductive plastic when not installed in the
system rack.
• Always switch off the voltage before extracting a board which cannot be exchanged while
under voltage. See Chapter 5, Maintenance. Wait a sufficient time for the capacitors to
discharge.
• Switch off voltage to the system and withdraw all boards at least 20 mm before electrical
welding is performed near the controller system.
• A warning label is fixed in the system to draw attention to possible damage by ESD
(Electro Static Discharge).
NOTE
Please, observe lifting instructions enclosed with the cabinet!
2.2.3 Location
The cabinet is to stand on a stable floor, deck or supporting structure, free from vibrations, and
is to be screwed to the surface. Minimum distances to walls and ceiling are listed in the
Figure 2-4.
Access to the rear of the cabinet is not necessary.
If required, you can remove the side plates on the sides in contact when two or more cabinets
related to one controller with I/O are installed next to each other. The width of the cabinets is
reduced by 20 mm for each end panel removed. The side plates should remain in place, as
protection, on any cabinet which generates any degree of interference.
2.2.5 Grounding
This section shows you where to ground in an Advant Controller cabinet. If necessary, it also
shows you how to ground.
You should be aware of the common Advant OCS Installation Rules, which establish the
principles of grounding and answer the questions of when a piece of equipment, a circuit or a
cable shield should be grounded and why it should be grounded. It also gives alternative
solutions adapted to specific plant requirements.
2.2.5.1 General
A RM500 cabinet forms a stable ground plane for all equipment accommodated.
The signal processing electronics in the controller, as well as all interference suppression for
external signals, are normally directly grounded to chassis and plant earth.
General
Advant OCS or rather the application itself put some limited requirement on cable shielding.
Only a few types of process signals must be shielded and treated in a special way in the
controller cabinet. In the continued description of CE-marked and not CE-marked controller
design these cables are denoted category A and they include:
• Low level analog input signals
– Accuracy requirement shall be greater or equal to 12 bits
– Pt 100 and Thermocouple.
• High-frequency pulse transmitter signals.
Normally a single shield is used and it is grounded in the controller end of the cable.
Sometimes the application require a local grounding of the cable shield close to the transducer.
Specific rules apply then.
By different reasons other field cables may be shielded too. For example following a
company/plant standard. There is no requirement from the controller viewpoint. These field
cables are denoted category B.
Unshielded process I/O cables can be mixed with shielded process I/O cables.
Common to all cabinet designs is the horizontal mounting bar at the left hand side of the cabinet
inside, close to the bottom of the cabinet. They can be used to mechanically anchoring all types
of field cables, shielded and unshielded, when entering the cabinet.
CE-marked Design
Shields of category A cables which are to be directly grounded in the cabinet must be grounded
to the cabinet chassis, cable ducts or connection units, according to Figure 2-6. Use a short lead
(<50 mm) and thread-cutting screws.
Connection unit
≤ 5 mm (2”)
Connection of shield
X in cable duct with

Process
I/O Cable
If there is a requirement of local grounding of a cable shield for, for example, a thermocouple
application, cable with double shield should be used. The inner shield is grounded locally at the
transducer while the outer shield is grounded according to Figure 2-6.
Shielded cables of the category A which are grounded locally at the transducer are alternatively
to be connected via a capacitive decoupling device, located in the bottom of the cabinet.
That is similar solution to that used for certain communication cables. See Section 2.2.5.5,
Grounding of Communication Cable Shields.
Shields of category B cables can be handled in the same way as category A cables.
Cover
CE-marked Design
I addition to the general instruction found above, further interference suppression of the cable
shield is made at the enclosure port by individual methods adapted to the different types of
communication. The schematic principles of direct grounding and h.f. grounding by a capacitor
are shown in Figure 2-8.
In one end
only
At direct grounding of the communication cable shield, the illustration in Figure 2-7 is
applicable.
The grounding via a capacitor is based on a Capacitive Decoupling Unit, which is mounted on
the horizontal mounting bar. The cable then passes the cabinet bottom unstripped.
See Figure 2-9.

Figure 2-9. Communication Cable Shield Grounded by Capacitor and Ferrite Coil
Each unit takes up to four communication cables and it also provides the mechanical anchoring
of the cable. Two units can be mounted side by side or, if necessary, on top of each other.
Certain spacers are used then. This imply a maximum of 4 units on a mounting bar (16 buses).
A split ferrite core should be used on each communication cable. They should be mounted at the
cabinet entry, see Figure 2-9, and have a series impedance of at least 100 ohms in the frequency
range 50-300 MHz. The application of method with respect to communication type is given in
Table 2-1.
2.2.5.6 Grounding of “Internal” System Cable Shields, Connection Unit -- I/O Board
General
Use shielded cables to join distributed (> 3 m) process connection units and I/O boards in a
subrack. Note that the internal cable must be routed separated from other cables.
Ground the shield in both ends. Use sheet cable lugs and self-tapping screws
ST3.5x9.5 (B6x9.5). See Figure 2-10.

A EMC-proof cabinet must be used for the I/O subrack and the connection units as well.
The cable shield shall be grounded in both ends according to Figure 2-10.
You must follow the main rule: Do not ground a signal at different points in the plant.

There are some restrictions in mixing cables within a cabinet due to the risk of interference.
To describe the simple rules applicable at site installation, cables are divided in categories.
See Table 2-2 and the following rules:
• Within a category, you can mix cables arbitrarily.
• Keep the distance between cables belonging to different categories ≥50 mm.
• “Cabinet internal” couplings have their own defined spaces for routing.
Always keep the distance to other cables ≥50 mm.

2.2.7.2 Installation
General
Ordering documents show which power supply alternative is applied.
An a.c., d.c., redundant or non-redundant supply is connected to the controller in the same way,
in principle. A terminal diagram form enclosed at delivery shows the relevant physical item
designations and connection points in the cabinet. You will also find the denominations supply
A, B and C applicable.
A summary of the main requirements of the networks A, B and C are given in Section 2.1.7,
Power Supply and Fusing.
The installation work to be done, supported by the terminal diagram form (circuit diagram), is:
• Connect network A
• Connect network B (if redundancy)
• Connect network C
• Connect the power supply units located in a process connection cabinet which may
become extra. Use the ready-made cables and plug-in contacts. They are marked with the
destination item designations.
CE-marked Design
Protection against line conducted radio emission is obtained by means of a special filter placed
in the bottom part of the cabinet on the incoming supply. One filter for each supply is utilized.
The cable length between the entrance of the cabinet and the net filter should be as short as
possible and mounted inside a protective screen. After connection to the net filter(s) the
protective shield plate should be remounted.
2.2.8 Controller
Assembly
All equipment included in the controller is factory assembled. Cabinet arrangement and similar
questions are dealt with in the general setup instructions above.
Electric Installation
Apart from the process I/O connections and communication connections, which are treated
separately, there is little electric installation. Grounding of the cabinet, equipment, cable shields,
and power supply connection are covered in the general setup instructions above. In addition to
that, make the following connections of functions when appropriate:
• Run/Alarm relay
• External clock synchronization
• Additional supervisory inputs.
The location of the connections within the cabinet are specified in the terminal diagram form
enclosed at delivery.

Functional Measures
• Adjust all included communication modules designated CS513 or CI547 (MasterBus 300,
MasterBus 300E) with respect to the actual configuration before a power switch on.
Assembly
Circuit boards and connection units are normally factory assembled. For information regarding
the location of equipment, see the actual delivery documentation. Assembly drawings,
for example, also give the cross-reference between the following structures:
• Physical location of circuit boards and connection units
• Functional item designation of circuit boards and signal channels
• Board address.
The functional item designation, for example, AI1 and the board hexadecimal address, H’20 are
hard related to each other and supported by the configuration tool when creating the data base.
(Normally, this relation is never changed.) However, the relation to the physical location is
determined when the equipment to be delivered is designed. Initially, standard location is
followed, see Section 2.1.4, Standard Layout and Disposition of Cabinets. Customized layout is
possible whenever applicable.
Reorganization of boards and connection units is “theoretically” possible. I/O board addresses
are not hard related to physical location. The board itself is carrying the address. The question
is, are there sufficient cable lengths (board-connection unit) to do the work?
A reorganization also calls for changing the documentation of the equipment.
Electric Installation
Distributed Connection Units
Distributed (3 m - 15 m) connection units are joined to the I/O boards by adapted shielded
cables with plug-in connectors. The following instructions apply:
• Outside the I/O cabinet, route the cables separately from other cables.
– 100 mm distance in general to other cables
– 300 mm distance to cables conducting power supply >250 V a.c.
• Cable routing in cabinets, see Section 2.2.6, Cable Routing in Cabinets.
• Grounding of cable shields, see Section 2.2.5, Grounding.
Process Signals
Process signals are connected to the connection units according to site installation drawings
supported by:
• Assembly drawings enclosed at delivery
• Terminal diagram forms enclosed at delivery
• Connection examples in S100 I/O Hardware Reference Manual.
The following instructions apply:
• Cable routing in cabinets, see Section 2.2.6, Cable Routing in Cabinets.
• Grounding of cable shields, see Section 2.2.5, Grounding.
• Grounding of process signals, see Section 2.2.5, Grounding.
Regarding cable selection and external cable routing, see general information in Interference-
Free Electronics Design and Applications.
A carefully accomplished electric installation is the basis of future interference-free operation.
Functional Measures
Address Jumpering
All circuit boards are adequately jumpered with respect to address at the factory.
If you need them, you can find instructions on how to set an I/O board address in the
S100 I/O Hardware Reference Manual.
Functional Jumpering
There are some board types that require jumpering to determine an application function,
for example, selection of current/voltage signal, mains frequency, grounding, and so on.
Functional jumpering applies to the board types and connection unit types listed in Table 2-3.
Please check the relevance for your application and follow further instructions for the specific
board type/connection unit type given in S100 I/O Hardware Reference Manual.
Readjustment
AO boards are factory adjusted for voltage output signals. If current signal is desired/jumpered,
you must readjust for maximum accuracy. Please follow the instructions found in Section
5.4.12, Channel Adjustment on AO Board.
An alternative method is to make an integrated check of the process equipment and wiring and
the corresponding controller function, which can be accomplished with a circuit-by-circuit
procedure. Preferably, the controller is loaded with application data base. The data base is then
used as one checkpoint. Status/values can be read and control signals to process objects can be
simulated by an engineering station. When an operator station is included in the system, it is
most effective to maintain the check from the automatically generated process I/O object
displays. The application data base must be loaded.
CAUTION
When you use a somewhat tougher method, be aware of the risk of “accidents.”
Short-circuiting and over-voltage can damage a limited part of the equipment,
for example, a process I/O board.
Power Supply
If you do not use a modem when communicating with a printer or a video terminal, you must
take an a.c. voltage supply with a protected earth (PE) from the Advant Controller cabinet, it is
not acceptable to use the closest or otherwise most convenient supply receptacle.
Make the connection as shown in Figure 2-17. The significant aspect is that the peripheral unit
should be grounded in the controller protective earth.

Take into consideration the extra load caused by any peripheral unit:
• When an intermediate isolating transformer is used in the cabinet to convert a two-phase
network to a single-phase network.
• From a fusing viewpoint.
Given the above rules, you can use any spare power outlet in the cabinet or you can arrange for
an additional branching socket.

See the actual delivery documentation for the controller for information regarding location of
the processor module and the modem.
Cable routing in the cabinet is shown in Section 2.2.6, Cable Routing in Cabinets.
From the viewpoint of the Advant Controller, there are no restrictions on the mains power
supply of the printer, for example, no requirement for earthing and same supply. The controller

2.2.14.9 Miscellaneous
Necessary Outfit
No special kit needed.
DANGER
Work with care when supply voltage is applied in the system. The voltage in
the cabinet can cause injury and can even kill a human being.
NOTE
Check the location of the emergency stop and use it in an emergency
situation.
From an electrical and functional viewpoint, an emergency stop has the same consequences to
the controller and attached equipment as a safety shut-down. See below.
Safety Shut-down
The controller and its S100 I/O are, from the mains power supply viewpoint, an entity. Safety
shut-down aimed at disconnecting the controller from the mains is carried out in two ways:
• As prescribed in the site planning section, Section 2.1.7, Power Supply and Fusing, there
should be a common safety switch installed within 3 m from the cabinets.
NOTE
Check the location of the safety switch and use it when working with the
equipment.
The safety switch should shut down the power supply of not only the electronics system
but also the adequate transducers and other process objects. In other words, a total power
shut-down for the plant section controlled.
Since the safety switch is a plant component, this document cannot stipulate and describe
the design exactly. Please check the plant documentation in this respect carefully.
Instructions indicating the extent of the power supply shut-down should be attached to the
safety switch.
• You can also create a selective power shut-down of the entire electronics system using the
mains circuit breaker in the lower part of the cabinet where the controller subrack resides.
The breaker is labeled S1.
This circuit breaker sometimes also disconnects the field equipment supply for the plant.
Regardless of the shut-down method, the result and consequences are:
• Application program execution immediately stops.
• There is zero output to the process objects.
• Output relays are de-energized.
• The RAM, including system software and application program, is secured against loss of
power by a supply of power from a battery backup.
• Important process values, for example totalized flow values, register content, and so on,
can be stored automatically if measures are taken when the application start program is
designed.
• The system is ready for a restart. You perform a restart by operating the actual mains
switch when the reason for the shut-down is resolved.
The application start program also facilitates a different way to start up the application,
depending on the time of power supply disconnection.
A note about the application of S400 I/O and S800 I/O:
If this I/O system is powered from the central system (the mains distributed), then the
instructions and consequences in connection to a shut-down given above are relevant.
If, however, the S400 I/O system and S800 I/O system are powered by a separate mains,
separate safety switch, and so on, then you must make a distinction between a “central” and
“local” shut-down.
S400 I/O
A central shut-down causes the S400 I/O outputs to freeze or go to zero, as applicable.
A local shut-down causes the S400 I/O outputs to go to zero.
S800 I/O
A central shut-down causes the S800 I/O output to freeze or go to a predefined value,
as applicable.
A local shut-down causes the S800 I/O outputs to go to zero.
Regarding the output behavior attached to S100 I/O, S400 I/O and S800 I/O, please be aware
that zero output is the designed state. It cannot be guaranteed under all conditions, for example,
in the event of a failure.
Manual Stop
Besides the most drastic shut-down method—disconnecting the power supply—other methods
of “stopping” the controller are available to you.
You can stop program execution as follows:
• Use the operator’s interface on the processor module front.
– Set the start mode selector in STOP position.
– Depress the ENTER button and the system stops.
• Use an engineering station connected to the controller.
– Command ECONFIG in an adequate session.
The result of a stop and its consequences are compatible for the two manual stop methods:
– Application program execution immediately stops.
– There is zero output to the process objects.
– Output relays are de-energized.
– There is no loss of process data (besides what is happening in the process in the
meantime).
– The system is ready for a restart. To perform a restart:
Set the start mode selector in the AUTO position and depress the ENTER button or
Command DICONFIG.
Automatic Stop
For the sake of completeness, the main reasons for an automatic stop are listed below:
• Loss of power supply
• Fault in power supply
• Fault in central processing unit and memory
• Other fatal error.
The result of an unintentional stop and its consequences are, from the viewpoint of design
philosophy, the same as for a safety shut-down (see above). However, when there is a fault
involved, other behavior must be taken into account.
After necessary measures, a restart can take place.
Necessary Outfit
The following kit is a minimum requirement:
• Ordinary hand tools.
• Universal instrument, for example a digital multimeter.
• Test leads with 4 mm banana contacts and reducer contacts for a 2 mm test jack.
• Necessary parts of the documentation listed in Section 1.4, Related Documentation.
• Specific documentation enclosed at delivery.
• Advant Station 100 Series Engineering Station.
DANGER
Work with care when supply voltage is applied in the system. The voltage in
the cabinet can cause injury and can even kill a human being.
2.4.2.1 Power-up
If, for some reason, you desire a limited power-up, the minimum equipment necessary is:
• Processor Module PM150
• Inserted program card.
1. Check that the circuit breakers on the power switch units are switched off.
There is one breaker for mains A (labeled S1) and one for mains C (labeled F1).
Redundancy adds another circuit breaker for mains B (labeled S1).
2. Set the start mode selector on Processor Module PM150 in the CLEAR position.
NOTE
The CLEAR position is the only possible choice when you power up for the
first time.
3. Switch on the mains supply to the cabinet and check for correct mains voltage with a
multimeter at the connection terminals on the power switch unit. See the terminal diagram
form enclosed at delivery.
4. Switch on the circuit breaker S1 on the power switch unit(s) in any order (mains A and B).
Also switch on the miniature circuit breaker F1 for mains C.
Several power switch and distribution units can exist in the controller cabinet or in
adjacent I/O cabinets.
5. Check for the following positive indications of a successful power-up:
– Distribution unit SX554 green LED LIVE
– Regulator SR170 (Redundancy applied) green LED LIVE
(Regulator SR 122 has no indications)
– Processor Module PM150 green LED RUN

(Indicating working mode CONFIGURATION)
See Figure 2-21.
There are also some negative indications, for example:
– S100 I/O boards red LED F(Fault)
(Indicating that the boards are not implemented.)
6. If a LAN communication interface CS513 or CI547 exists and if it is addressed and set
properly by on-board switches during the setup (see Section 2.2, Setup), it gives the
following indications:
– Communication module CS513 or CI547 green LED RUN

ylw LED RX (flash)
(Indicating a successful automatic configuration of the LAN communication.)
7. The target system is now ready for configuration, either by connecting the engineering
station directly to the processor module or via the network, if applicable and desirable.
8. Finally, set the start mode selector on Processor Module PM150 in the AUTO position.
WARNING
Do not push the ENTER button!
If correct indications fail to appear, trace the fault in accordance with the instructions in

2.5.3 Commissioning
2.5.3.1 General
For a general description of how to set the controller in operation and start the execution of an
application program, see Section 2.4.2.7, Summary of the Controller Start-up and Verification
of the Start.
Below, you can find general information on some function tests which you can perform to verify
the product. Short notes on adequate facilities provided by the engineering station are also
listed.
For a more detailed description, see the AMPL Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series,
Reference Manual.
2.5.3.2 Procedure
The application program is normally checked, one executing unit at a time. This is done by
deblocking the complete PC program (DIBM command) and successively deblocking the
execution units, one after the other. You can, for example, check that a flow valve functions and
then verify the start sequence for a pump motor, and so on.
After each sub-function is tested, a comprehensive function control is performed to verify that
all execution units function together.
Finally, a full scale check of the complete installation is performed to verify that the program is
in accordance with the plant specification.

A, B and C constitute interpreters. If an attempt is made to set a time outside the limits specified
or to another interpreter, a system message is presented.
NOTE
All PC elements within a control module have the same periodicity.
The order in which several executing units with the same periodicity are executed is controlled
by the call parameter C2. If no value is specified for C2, the system places this executing unit in
the first vacant space in the cycle time table which specifies the order of execution.
Use the command MV to change the value of C2 to move an execution unit in the execution
sequence, for example, MV PC1.1:C2.
General
As mentioned in the setup instructions for process I/O, it is advantageous to make an integrated
check of process equipment and wiring and the corresponding control function. You make this
check in a circuit-by-circuit procedure. The data base is then used as one checkpoint.
An engineering station reads status/values and simulates control signals to the process objects.
When an operator station is included in the system, it is most effective to maintain the check
from the automatically generated process I/O object displays.
You may need to simulate digital and analog input signals which are normally generated by the
process. Suitable methods to do this follow:
• Digital inputs: Activate the input by connecting a voltage which corresponds to the
nominal value of the input. The “1” and “0” status is simulated by opening and closing the
terminal switches. Activate the input as close to the process transducer as possible to test
the process wiring as far as possible.
Manual operation of transducers, for example, limit switches can also give the required
change for the input signals.
• Analog input signals: Use a signal generator for analog signals.
Use a simple test coupling as a voltage generator. This consists of a potentiometer coupled
over a suitable voltage source which gives ± voltage.
A current source which can give sufficient current, 20 mA, is required for current signals.
Enter analog test signals as close to the ordinary signal generator as possible to test the
process wiring.
Digital and analog output signals are obtained by setting the required values in the data base via
the engineering station. This means entry of values from the keyboard for the data base elements
concerned (property VALUE).
The system designer provides test specifications with the limits permitted.
As each channel is tested and approved, you can set a test flag “TESTED” in the data base with
the help of MDB. This is not essential, however, for the program function since you can use
simpler methods such as marking the channels on the connection diagram to register the test
procedure.

DANGER
Work with care when supply voltage is applied in the system. The voltage in
the cabinet can cause injury and can even kill a human being.
On-Line/Off-Line
On-line means that all work can be carried out while the controller is in full operation.
Because of the risk of making manual mistakes in such handling, and the possible severe
consequences to the process controlled, it is recommended that you use this on-line facility
restrictively.
The best method of working:
The system is stopped and the voltage supply is disconnected when a new function is
installed.
Disconnection of the mains supply may have impact on dynamic information stored in the
application program. For example counter/register content, integrator content and so on, will be
lost if not secured by special considerations in the application program design. However this is
general design considerations. The controller should manage “normal” mains supply
interruptions.

Mount I/O functions in the following way:
1. Make a plan for the work to be done.
– Read the General Guidelines above and apply the information.
– Check for available spares in the data base. Use the commands DIMDB (check is
possible, redimensioning is not possible on-line) or LDBD.
– Determine I/O address to be used. Use the documentation of the data base or the
delivery documentation, if applicable.
2. If no spares are available, make a dump of the controller system configuration and the
application program. Engineering station dump command DUTDB and DUTPT.
3. Switch off the supply voltage to the control system (recommendation).
NOTE
Remember that the control function of the system ceases and the process being
controlled is affected.
4. Screw the connection unit to the mounting bar at the rear wall of the cabinet. Ensure that
the screws make contact with the tinned surface of the earth plane of the circuit board for
effective grounding.
It is also of the utmost importance that you tighten the screws properly to give a reliable
earth connection. See Figure 2-28.
5. Screw the board connector with connection cable to the desired slot in the subrack and
connect to the connection unit in the opposite end. See illustration in Figure 2-29.
6. Ensure that there is no tension in the wiring, especially if it may be necessary to swing the
hinged subframe for the I/O subrack.
7. Set the I/O address and other functional jumpering on the board.
Addressing and functional measures like jumpering are described in the reference manual
S100 I/O Hardware.
8. Provide access to the desired position in the subrack by loosen the locking bar in front of
the boards.
9. Insert the I/O board carefully in the subrack without reaching the rear plane contacts.
Ensure that the board slides in the guides in the subrack.
CAUTION
At insertion, use the grounded wristband.
10. Push in the new board quickly and decisively
11. Ensure that the board contacts mate properly with the contacts in the rear plane. Screw the
locking bar in place.
12. Connect the process cables to the connection unit. Reflect upon all installation rules
regarding cable routing and grounding.
As an alternative, first make a functional verification when the process is not connected.

Start-up
The start-up is carried out in different ways, depending on the main working mode, on-line or
off-line.
If a board is added on-line, the different I/O channels are put into operation as the adequate data
base is created and the application functions are built and started (deblocked).
You can, of course, switch off the power supply during the installation work.
Then switch on the power supply, keeping the start mode selector on the processor module in
the AUTO position. The system is restarted and in full operation apart from the additional
board. The different I/O channels are put into operation as the adequate data base is created and
the application functions are built and started (deblocked).
If the board is added off-line because REDIMENSION of the data base was necessary (no
spares available), the following start-up sequence is applicable.
A data base dump DUTDB and a PC program dump DUTPT are presupposed.
1. Follow the general instructions in Section 2.6.6, Power-up Ahead of Program Loading.
2. Perform the controller system configuration:
a. Load the data base dump, LOTDB and REDIMENSION.
b. Create the additional data base, DIMDB.
c. Perform data entry of additional data base, MDB.
d. Dump and load (compress) the data base, DUTDB/LOTDB.
e. Load the PC program dump, LOTPT, and REDIMENSION PC program tables,
if necessary.
3. Configuration/application building:
a. Populate the additional data base, MDB.
b. Enter and edit PC program, if relevant.
c. Dump and load PC programs, DUTPT/LOTPT.
4. Back up the entire RAM, DUAP.
5. Disable working mode CONFIGURATION, DICONFIG.
In addition to those indications obtained at power-up:
– All red LED F (Fault) on S100 I/O board fronts are switched off.
6. The processor module changes over and indicates P1 (working mode OPERATION).
The system is now started and ready for operation.
Perform the final stages, which include start of executing application programs, successively,
especially those application programs which are affected by the additional I/O board. Do one
PC program at a time.
WARNING
When the application program is started, the process to be controlled is
influenced.
Verification
Make functional tests, including process functions, applicable.
CAUTION
Do not forget the general rule: Reflect on the danger of ESD. Use the grounded
wristband.
7. Insert the new program card.
CAUTION
At insertion, use the grounded wristband.
Start-up
Suitable data base and PC program dumps, per point 4 in the setup instructions above,
are presupposed.
The following instructions do not include any utilization of the new software functionality,
but only aim at restoring the “old” application. Enlargement of the application may require
redimensioning of the data base and the PC program tables as well. For relevant information on
these topics, look elsewhere in this manual or see separate documentation.
1. Follow the general instructions given in Section 2.6.6, Power-up Ahead of Program
Loading.
2. Perform the controller system configuration:

Guidelines
• PU535 can be located in any of the submodule slots in the Processor Module PM150.
Guidelines
• For a summary of the main requirements of the plant supply from a planning viewpoint,
see Section 2.1, Site Planning Environment.
• Auxiliary equipment in the controlled system is normally powered separately from the
control system power supply.
• Heavy current on/off loads are always powered separately.
• An exception to the second point above is analog outputs, for example 0-10 V, 4-20 mA,
which are powered by the system power supply. Please note, galvanically isolated analog
outputs are powered separately.
• You can use the system power supply for transducers provided that:
– the need for current is small
– there is idle capacity in the available power supply units (see Current
Consumption)
– the transducer is grounded directly in the control system chassis.
Current Consumption
As a rule, an SA168 (25 A d.c.) supply unit is sufficient for supply of a controller and I/O (one
subrack). Please note that the supply unit types given are for 230 V a.c. mains supply.
Corresponding types for 120 V a.c. mains supply are available.
The current consumption with 24 V is obtained in the following way:
1 16 A K16A 20 A K25A
2 16 A K16A 20 A K25A
3 16 A K25A 25 A K32A
4 20 A K32A 35 A K50A
The in-rush current at power switch-on must be considered at the fuse dimensioning.
Consequently, you must include redundant power supply units (connected to the same line) in
the calculation of number of units. Normally, redundant power supply units are connected to
separate lines.
a.c. Network C
To reflect the in-rush current and the current rating for the applied power switch and distribution
unit (SV54x), the distribution board fusing should be in the range 10 - 20 A.
d.c. Network A/B
Considering distribution board fusing at d.c. supply, an almost “worst case” view is, out of
necessity, taken. See Table 3-4 below.
The fuse dimensioning current in the table is settled with respect to:
• lowest supply voltage (19 V/38 V)
• efficiency factor of power supply unit SD150 (ca 0.7)
• margin (1.25 x calculated load current).
The minimum fuse value is determined by the miniature circuit breakers in the actual power
switch and distribution units.
At 24 V d.c., the minimum value is normally 50 A. At 48 V d.c., the minimum value is 25 A.

Guidelines
The following sections, Section 3.1.5.1, S100 I/O System and Section 3.1.5.2, S400 I/O System,
guide you in selecting suitable I/O for an application and some design rules.
By way of introduction, the question of centralized I/O or distributed I/O is discussed.
A combination of centralized I/O and distributed I/O can often be an appropriate solution.
Centralized I/O
The traditional method of building control equipment with a central assembly of all electronics
in the control or equipment room is still the most common. There are several reasons for this:
• Not all processes are suitable for distribution of I/O functions. In some cases, safety or
environmental requirements with respect to equipment and maintenance personnel may
make a process unsuitable.
• The geographical spread of the process is often limited.
• It may be necessary to supplement a central operator’s function (including a display
screen) with a conventional panel function independent of the control system.
For example, a panel instrument in a current loop showing a process measured value
which is to be placed in the central control room.
• The control system interacts closely with central switch gear for control of the motor
supply.
Distributed I/O
Cables and wiring represent a large part of the costs of a control system. It is, therefore,
an obvious advantage if a communication bus can transport a large number of signals between
an Advant Controller 410 and a distributed I/O unit and have separate signal leads only between
the I/O unit and the process. The wider the process is dispersed geographically, the more
profitable distributed I/O becomes.
The option to supplement the distributed I/O function with independent small controllers for
fast logic control makes this type of system configuration even more attractive economically.
The control in the distributed controller can, in addition, be integrated with the Advant OCS.
In connection to a revamp, you can locate distributed I/O units in an existing marshalling area as
interface between an old installation and a new control system.
Guidelines - General
There are certain restrictions in number of I/O subracks, number of I/O boards and number of
signals of different categories. Please see Section 3.2, Technical Data Including Capacity &
Performance.
There are no restrictions on location and mixing of boards of different categories in an I/O
subrack. There are, however, some production rules to facilitate ordering and rapid delivery.
See Section 2.1.4, Standard Layout and Disposition of Cabinets.
When you design a control system, it is desirable to leave some spare capacity. You can add new
I/O boards on-line. It is practical to have approximately 10% to 20% of the channels as spares.
The same recommendation is valid for spare space in subracks.
You can add new I/O boards on-line provided there are spare items in the data base. Reflect the
need when you make the data base dimensioning.
32 single ended and unipolar current inputs, which means that the transducers or their power
supply can be grounded only within a geographically limited area, where the ground potential is
the same as the system ground.
NOTE
There are two connection units due to the number of input channels.
In a redundant configuration two DSAI 133 can be connected to the same connection units.
The redundant inputs are handled by the application programmer in the same way as the other
analog inputs.

Placed out in the process to minimize the length of expensive compensation cable from
thermoelements. The unit measures the temperature at the cold junction. Locate it at a place
with small temperature variations and, naturally, at a place conveniently located with respect to
all of the transducers connected to the board concerned.
DSTA 155P has pluggable screw terminals.
Used when considerable accuracy and galvanic isolation between control system and load,
channel by channel, are required. The load resistance may be a maximum of 500 Ω with 20 mA
and 1000 Ω with 10 mA.
DSAO 120
DSTA 170, DSTK 223L3
Used when considerable accuracy is required. You can ground the load provided that the
potential difference between the ground of the load and the ground in the controller is low.
The equivalent resistance caused by the ground voltage drop and the load resistance together is
not to exceed 500 Ω with a current signal.
DSAO 120A

and minimum 1000 Ω for voltage output.
DSAO 130
DSTA 180, DSTK 221L3
Used with moderate demands for accuracy (inaccuracy 0.4%). Do not ground the load. The load

potential difference between the ground of the load and the ground in the controller is low.
The equivalent resistance caused by the ground voltage drop and the load resistance together is
not to exceed 850Ω with a current signal.

With DSTY 101 (insulation amplifier), you can obtain insulation at individual input and output
channels. The insulation is obtained between primary and secondary sides and to the supply.
Scanned or interrupt-controlled 24 V d.c. inputs. You can configure the inputs for pulse
catching, that is, with filter times of 100 ms at switch-on and 2 s at switch-off. This function is
especially well suited for setting keys (push buttons).
In the connection unit, the current supply is divided into two groups of 16 channels each.
Each group has a common 0 V. This does not prevent external voltage supply and fusing for
smaller groups of channels but naturally requires that the 0 V sides can be connected. The two
groups are galvanically isolated from the internal electronics.

connection units listed below to this board and cable. Division between the different connection
units is a free choice. The properties of the inputs are decided by the selected connection units.
Each connection unit contains eight inputs.

With connection distances greater than approximately 200 m, with an a.c. supply, the capacitive
cross-talk can result in malfunctioning. Consider the technical data of the cable type concerned
in relation to the input impedance of the board and switch-over levels. The connection unit is

General Guidelines
Control system availability is often discussed in relation to industrial processes, power
generation systems, machines, and so on. Redundancy is one instrument to reach high system
reliability and availability.
The advantages of such redundancy include:
• Improved personnel safety
• Less risk of machine damage
• Reduction of expensive production loss
• Less demand for shift work by highly paid, qualified maintenance personnel.
Processes and machines are seldom identical and it is often necessary to adapt the solution of
the redundancy problem to the application concerned. It may be sufficient to equip particularly
sensitive process sections or functional parts with control system redundancy. The level of
redundancy considered necessary varies and can be, for example:
• 100% availability necessary - Hot stand by
• Stop for some seconds acceptable
• Stop for some minutes acceptable
• The possibility of a controlled manual stopping of the process required.
When studying an operational malfunction in a production unit, it is often found that the fault is
in a motor, a contactor, a valve, or field-mounted instrumentation. It can thus, in theory, appear
more appropriate to duplicate an important measuring sensor or valve than to duplicate the
control system, but errors in the controller have more serious consequences.
When considering whether redundancy of the control system really is the best configuration,
study the question broadly. Base the result on the construction and requirements of the process
and the total function. “A chain is no stronger than its weakest link.”
By taking into consideration the risk of malfunction when designing a specific control system,
you can obtain a high degree of availability at minimum cost.
The distribution of sensitive I/O channels to different circuit boards is a form of risk-spreading.
You can divide application programs into an independent basic function and a more advanced,
perhaps optimization, auxiliary function, dependent on sensitive measurement functions.
This means that production need not be stopped when parts, both within the control system and
externally, do not function correctly.
Other means of increasing system availability, irrespective of the configuration selected,
are maintenance resources such as spare parts and the availability of trained personnel.
DANGER - CAUTION
Duplication of control system functions is one way to ensure that all tasks are performed
correctly. It is, however, very important to emphasize that the security in a process control
system, when it comes to personnel safety, must never be based on duplication of system
functions alone. You must always check other measures as well.
In the most critical applications, a special design of the Advant OCS, the Advant Safety System,
is then applicable.
3.1.9.1 Redundancy
Guidelines
• Always base your investment in redundancy on a relevant reliability and availability
analysis. Reflect on, for example:
– Not only the control system itself but also field instrumentation and other production
equipment.
– Costs of production stop vs. increased costs for a system with high availability.
– Vulnerability, price and performance with different alternatives.
• Be aware of the increased need for maintenance and spare parts to keep a high level of
availability.

Expansion Possibilities
You can connect a new Advant Controller 410 to an existing control network
(MasterBus 300) without affecting other stations and controllers. The new controller is
automatically incorporated in the communication system.
You can expand the controller step by step, that is the system can be enlarged and made more
complex in different ways. Examples of such areas are:
• Process I/O
• Communication with external computers and other systems
• Operator functions
• Application program
• Redundancy.
Of course, there are some limitations such as maximum number of possible instances and
functionality offered by the available library. You can, however, exchange program modules if
certain optional functions are required.
For limitations, see Section 3.2, Technical Data Including Capacity & Performance.
If desirable, you can carry out most expansions and operations on-line.
Some preparations are necessary when you are dimensioning the system since the dimensioning
commands DIMDB and DIMPC are only available off-line. Practically, this is not a problem.
A number of spare instances in the data base and spare PC program structures should always be
defined for future limited expansions.
Extensive reconfiguration and enlargement of the system is normally linked to revamping the
plant. Shut-down of the system and off-line work is then advisable.
Spare Considerations
In addition to what is said above regarding spare instances in the data base and spare space for
additional application programs, there is a simple rule of thumb for the hardware design:
You can add new I/O modules on-line. It is practical to have approximately 10% to 20% of the
channels spare. The same recommendation is valid for spare space in subracks.
- Interrupt-controlled DI
- AI-channels with cycle times 5, 10, 30, 60, 300 and 600 secs
- MasterBus 300
- System status
- Data Set-communication
- EXCOM
There is a “stall level” between the different levels. This means that the system must execute all
functions, including all PC-control operations, at least each fifth second for the system to
continue operation. If an operator station or an engineering tool is connected to the controller,
a warning consisting of a system message is presented on the display screen if all functions are
not executed within a 30-minute period. This protection is provided to guarantee that all
functions in an Advant Controller 410 have sufficient time to perform their tasks.
The user is not normally concerned with priority levels since these are managed automatically
by the system, but the user should be aware of the priority system and stall level if the system is
heavily loaded.

Performance - General
The load caused by different subsystems in the controller is reported below. To start with, you
will find an overview. The following headings cover details to respective subsystems, apart
from individual PC element load data, which is included in the PC element manual.
All performance data is based on actual measurements in Advant OCS configurations.
For instructions on how to make calculations, see Section 3.1.15, CPU-optimization, Load
Calculation.
The load from cyclic functions in Advant Controller 410 is built up as shown in Figure 3-8.

PC System
In addition to the base load of the PC interpreters (included in base load given above), the CPU
load generated by the PC system is composed of the following parts:
• PC element execution. The PC element manual contains information on the load from each
PC element.
• Reading and writing of data to/from the data base. Each time a value is read from the data
base to a PC element, or written to the data base from a PC element, 6 microsecs are spent.
When a process output channel is written, add the time for I/O handling.

NOTE
The capacity of the communication bus must also be considered in the
performance calculation. See separate documentation attached the used bus.
Load data is given by a diagram, Figure 3-9. By extrapolation you may obtain the load figure
for an extended number of objects.
First an example and some general comments:
A display with 100 objects from one Advant Controller 410, with an update cycle of 3 sec,
generates a load of approximately 5% in the controller. Use of 10 different object types is
presupposed.
Always present digital signals with event-controlled update in combination with 9 sec cyclic
update, to get fast updating on changes while minimizing the load.
The total load in the controller from subscriptions for displays should normally not exceed
20 %.

Command
The load in a controller caused by a command from an operator station or an information
management station is non-recurrent and relatively small. It can be disregarded.
Event Handling
I/O signals (including calculated variants) with NORMAL_TREAT = 1 (event handling
selected) will give rise to increased load when the event occurs, which means VALUE changed
(DI) or LIMIT exceeded (AI). However this is taken care of by having the stipulated reserve
capacity.

On the X-axis you can find the update requirement from a display, which is presented on the
screen. Note that the load caused by, for example, 20 variables updated every second is the
same as the load from 40 variables updated every other second. If several MasterView 320 is
used at the same time (with a display on screen) you have to add the load figures from each
terminal.
Performance - Logging
The load caused by each individual log can be estimated from the diagrams and models below.
Finally make an addition.
The lowest configured value of sampling interval or log interval for an actual log is used when
entering the diagrams. In that way the different load caused by a momentary log and a mean
value log is practically considered.
A primary and a secondary log is treated in the same way when analyzing the CPU load.
The secondary log normally gets its data from a primary log. This means that the load data from
the primary log and the secondary log must be added up.

General
A number of applications of communication links are dealt with below. The communication link
itself will give rise to a small controller CPU load. This load is specified for each application
and should be finally added when the individual sending/receiving is considered.

Data Set and AI, AO, DI, DO with EXCOM
The load in an Advant Controller 410 caused by a communication with an external computer
using EXCOM is approximately the same irrespective of if the actual controller is a transit node
or a slave node in the communication. The computer is always master.
Reflect the following when you read the load data at different transmission rates (bus) given in
figures below.
• The load algorithm is quite complex and the straight lines in the figures are practical
approximations only.
• Limit values for maximum number of messages (with a given number of signals in the
message) is given.
• A limit value within parenthesis is estimated.
• You should consider the individual signals included in a data set package in the same way
as AI-, AO-, DI-, DO-signals.
• To minimize the CPU load and to get high communication through-put you should apply
several signals in each message.

Performance - Reserve
This is a matter of the disposition of the total CPU load. A reserve of 15% to 20% is
recommended. See Section 3.1.15, CPU-optimization, Load Calculation.

1. The time limit is valid at lowest permitted supply voltage, 19.2 V, and maximum load (worst
case).
If an event burst exceeds the capacity of a buffer, the “lost events” are marked in the data base
file and sent to the operator station with time marked “uncertain” when the load decreases.
These events will not be missing in the event and alarm lists if MasterBus 300 is used.
The maximum steady state rate is 2 events/sec.
Momentary event bursts with higher frequency are handled
as described above.
Relative time error with time-tagged events:
• Events handled within a controller utilizing S100 I/O
or S800 I/O with SOE functionality <2 ms
• Events handled within a controller utilizing S400 I/O 10-100 ms
(The event is time tagged when the signal arrives at the controller.
Time error depends on scanning selected.)
• Events handled within a subordinated autonomous
controller (for example Advant Controller 110) <1 ms
(Events locally time tagged.)
• Events handled within separate controllers
Advant Controller 450, Advant Controller 410,
Advant Controller 110 (not S400 I/O)
– With external time synch. 1 <4 ms
– No external time synch. <5 ms
• For S800 I/O without SOE functionality, the relative time error between events
(DI signals) in one controller can be evaluated from the expression:
Relative time error = a + b + c
a = scan cycle time of the Fieldbus Communication Interface (5 - 100 ms)
b = Data Set Peripheral cycle time of Advant Fieldbus 100 (set by the user)
c = scan cycle time of the process data communication in Advant Controller 410
(set by the user, terminal SCANT)
• It is also possible to receive events from Advant Controller 70/110 using Advant
Fieldbus 100, or from Advant Controller 55/110 using RCOM/RCOM+. The relative time
error between events for different configurations are given in Table 3-16. A condition for
the table is that all events are connected to one Advant Controller 410/450.

3.4 Tutorial
The aim of this section is to give those who are inexperienced in this area a short guide through
the different phases of a controller design project. There are methods and tools developed to
make such project work effective in a variety of aspects. No references are made to methods and
tools in this section because that is beyond the scope of this product manual.
Whenever possible, concrete references are made to suitable sections in this manual or to other
documentation. The novice reader will preferably read the Introduction (Chapter 1) and Section
3.1, Design Considerations in this manual completely before starting the design work.
Individual requirements on particular supporting processes like electric, instrument air, cooling,
and particular subplants and sections are given in the Plant Design Documents. Here you can
also find documents which are the basis of the control system design. Examples of such
documents commonly used are:
• Function Descriptions (detailed)
• P&I diagram
• Instrument lists
• Motor lists
• I/O lists
• Applicable standards (plant, domestic, international).
• Structuring
• Definition of functional interface to other system
• Execution control work-through
• Configuration/Implementation
This is mostly an interactive session using an engineering station.
Some of these activities, subactivities and other similar subjects of interest are dealt with below.
Naming
All global objects are identified (and accessed) by unique names which you define within an
application project. Certain objects are given default names by the system, which you can
change later. From the system’s point of view, the name structure is flat. However, since a name
is a visible ASCII string, you can implement any kind of structure in naming objects.
Names are introduced in a controller via data base elements representing the actual object.
In general, the designation (connection NAME) on the data base element must be unique in the
controller. Designations referred to from an operator station via a Control Network must also be
unique in the total process control system connected to that network.
When defining signals, it is important that the signals be given names which are well considered
and which will not have to be changed at some later stage.
With auto-generation of a PC-diagram, the signal names are printed in the diagram. This is the
reason for providing the signals with plain language names, even with a stand-alone controller.
The philosophy behind the naming of the signals is to also be applicable to calculated signals.
As an example, the values provided by two level transducers are averaged to give a calculated
signal. The physical signals are named LT 104A and LT 104B and the calculated signal is
named LT 104.
The designation philosophy for objects in the process control system must be established when
the signals are named. (Following relevant standards.) The designations should preferably be
hierarchic so that objects and signals are given associative names.
A feedback control loop for level control named LICA 104 (LICA = Level Indication Control
Alarm) is an example.
The PID controller object is assigned the name LICA 104 while the actual value (the feedback
signal) is suitably designated LT 104 (LT = Level Transmitter) and the controller output value
LV 104 (LV = Level Valve). These names are obtained from one of the standards for
designations in process industries, ISO 3511.

Type Circuits
Type circuit building is a very important aid in the configuration procedure. A type circuit is the
largest common collection of PC elements which occurs at several places in the application
program.
A type circuit can be, for example, a certain type of feedback control loop or a panel control unit
with push buttons and lamps. An advantage obtained by working with type circuits is that the
work in designing the application program is reduced.
Instead of designing X program parts, one part is designed and used X times at different places,
perhaps with the addition of a minor PC element for adaptation in certain cases.
When the function of a type circuit is thoroughly verified in one application, the commissioning
of the remainder is much simpler. Another advantage is that the operator’s functions based on
type circuits become standardized.
Configuration/Implementation
This phase mainly comprises the interactive work carried out with the help of an engineering
station, for example Advant Station 100 Series ES connected to the target system. It is
supported by separate documentation as well, mostly the reference manual, AMPL
Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series.
A recommended procedure is “cut” from that document:
1. Make a copy of the original user diskette. The original is supplied together with the
engineering station.
2. Activate those MasterBus 300, RCOM, GCOM and MultiVendor Interface that are to be
included in the system.
3. Dimension the data base.
4. Populate the data base.
5. Dump the data base.
6. Restart the controller for configuration and load the data base dump.
7. Dimension the space for the PC program.
8. Build the PC program. (In this context, the input of the program.)
9. Make a backup of the entire system.
NOTE
The command files that control the menu handling functions in the engineering
station are stored on the user diskette.

Interpreter
Reading data in and out, between process and data base, is performed by the module for process
communication. For the most important types of input and output boards, this is performed in
accordance with the following:
DI:
Each digital input board (this applies to most types) monitors the channels for changes in
value. If there is any change, an interrupt signal is transmitted to the processor and the
kernel starts the program for reading in the new measured value for storage in the data
base.
Digital input boards can also be read cyclically. All channels on the board are then read
and the new values are stored in the data base.
AI:
Each channel on an analog input board is read cyclically. The cycle time, which can be set
individually, is stored in the data base. For temperature measurement boards (Pt100 and
thermocouple boards), the conversion is started cyclically. When the conversion is
completed, the board generates an interrupt. The inputs are handled so that the
measurement signal is filtered and converted to process-related units. The limits are
checked and then stored in the data base. The reading is normally performed synchronous
with the execution of PC modules with the same cycle time.
DO:
Each time an execution unit in a PC program is executed, the value at the output is stored
in the data base. If a change has occurred since the preceding execution, a read-out
program for read-out to the digital output board is started.
AO:
Analog outputs are processed in the same way as digital outputs. Process-related units
must first, however, be converted to digital values within the range of the D/A-convertor.
You can select either current or voltage with solder straps on the connection unit. In the
case of boards with expanded supervision (DSAX 110), the analog output value is read
back to permit a comparison with the database value.
4.1.9.3 PC Program
You can divide a control task into a number of functional sections. The division is performed
primarily in accordance with the functional structure of the control task and can also be in
accordance with the requirement of different cycle times in the process. A PC program can
accordingly be divided into function modules and several execution units, which in turn consist
of PC elements.
Each execution unit can be given its own periodicity and its own execution conditions for
connection and disconnection.
PC elements are the smallest “building blocks” in a PC program. They are described in detail in
the manual PC Elements. As an example, Figure 4-12 shows the graphical symbol for the PC
element FUNG-1V, a function generator. The figure also gives a rough outline of the supporting
elements for the break-points of the desired function (curve).
Figure 4-13 shows the desired application function.

4.1.10 Execution
The execution is organized by the interpreter which, in accordance with the PC program, calls
the correct code for the PC element concerned from the library of PC elements.
4.1.10.1 Interpreter
The interpreter is a system program which organizes the execution of the different program
modules with the periodicity required. The interpreter also checks if any unit is blocked, if the
RESET of any unit is activated, etc. In an Advant Controller 410, there is a large difference
between the shortest and the longest possible cycle times.
Cycle times of 5 ms and 32 s can be used in one and the same system. Normally, with no
reconfiguration, the cycle times are between 10 ms and 2 s. An internal allocation of priorities is
therefore necessary. The system has three interpreters designated A, B and C.
A has the highest priority and C the lowest (see Figure 4-14 below).
The standard cycle times obtained are given in the figure. For a more detailed description of the
configuration of cycle times, see the manual Configuration and Programming.
10ms 20ms 40ms 50ms 100ms 200ms 250ms 500ms 1000ms 2000ms
Cycle time
The allocation of priorities to the interpreters means that the execution of PC elements with
cycle times associated with interpreter C can be interrupted for the execution of PC elements
with cycle times associated with the interpreters A and B. The execution of PC elements with
cycle times associated with interpreter B can, however, only be interrupted by the execution of
PC elements with cycle times associated with interpreter A. The execution of PC elements
which are associated with interpreter A cannot be interrupted by the execution of other PC
elements.
CONTRM CONTRM
50 ms 50 ms
Data
When the conditions for an execution unit are defined, it is possible, with the call parameter
“Place in the cycle table,” to specify a place number between 1 and 255. This place number
specifies the order in which the execution units are executed during the same cycle time.
If, in the example, the place number 1 is specified for the execution unit 1 and the place number
2 is specified for unit 2, the required function is obtained.
The different execution units may well belong to different PC programs, but they must all have
the same cycle time. For units with different cycle times, there is no defined sequence.
A required start sequence can, however, be obtained by controlling the start conditions for the
execution units included.

Assume that execution of element .20 is followed by an interrupt caused by the digital input
signal changing status from 1 to 0. When the execution is resumed with element .21, the signals
MOTOR ON and MOTOR OFF are active simultaneously. The system automatically introduces
a reading-in element (an “invisible” GET element) which reads the value of the input signals at
the beginning of the execution of the unit and stores them in the local data area to prevent such
faults.

Value
A value is calculated in the execution unit with the cycle time 500 ms and a limit check is
performed on the calculated value. These values (VALUE and VALUE > LIMIT) are connected
to an execution unit with cycle time 50 ms where the logical signal VALUE > LIMIT controls
an analog output with a fixed value MAX or with the calculated signal VALUE. Assume that
when element .10 has been executed (but not .11), an interrupt signal with cycle time 50 ms is
received from the execution unit. The PC element in this unit works with the values of the
signals VALUE > LIMIT and VALUE, which are not associated with one another. To prevent
this, the system automatically introduces a reading-out element (an “invisible” PUT element).
The purpose of the reading-out element is to ensure that the output signals from an execution
unit only become legible for PC elements within other execution units when all PC elements
within the unit have been executed.
If output signals from an execution unit are to be stored in the data base, all data base points are
updated when all PC elements within the unit have been executed.

4.1.13 Diagnostics
During system initialization as well as during operation, the system itself checks that the
hardware is serviceable. For a description, see Section 1.8.10 Availability and Security. In that
section, you can find information on diagnostics and process output behavior at faults and
interrupts.
Chapter 5 Maintenance
DANGER - CAUTION
Observe the following:
• Use only approved hoisting equipment when lifting cabinets. See lifting instructions
enclosed with the cabinet.
• Never switch on the voltage supply of the cabinet during installation work. However
replacement of modules in subracks can be done on line, that is while power supply is
switched on. Special instructions are given for the work with power supply units.
• Power supply units in a “live” system, that is while the mains supply is switched on, is to
be replaced by authorized service personnel only.
• Work with care when supply voltage is applied in the system. The voltage in the
cabinet can cause injury and can even kill a human being.
• Make sure that everyone working on the installation knows the location of the safety
switch and the mains power supply switch to the Advant Controller 410 equipment and
how to use it.
• When the subsections of the process are checked and a test run has been performed,
a responsible person is to check out interlocking chains, and so on.
• Inform all assembly personnel about test runs to be performed.
• Process technicians are to be present when testing and operating the process objects.
• Never press the system ENTER (initialization) if you do not know what happens in the
system with an initialization. The command RECONFIG is equivalent to an ENTER in the
CLEAR mode.
• Remember that the control system can be controlled from an engineering station connected
at another node via a MasterNet. For example it can be stopped, configured and started
remotely.
• Remember that an Advant Controller 410 starts automatically when voltage is applied if
this is not prevented by means of the data base element START. You can also prevent start-
up of an Advant Controller 410 by setting the START MODE selector in the STOP
position.
CAUTION
Observe the following safety rules:
• Avoid discharges of static electricity by grounding both yourself and tools before handling
circuit boards and other parts of the equipment.
• Use the grounded wristband installed in the cabinet when handling parts of the system.
• Handle the circuit boards carefully, particularly those which contain MOS components
which can be damaged by static electricity discharges. Note the warning label on the
circuit boards.
• Use, as far as possible, the grounded wristband when handling boards not stored in
envelopes of conductive plastic. This gives optimum protection against static electricity
discharges.
• Always store circuit boards in envelopes of conductive plastic when not installed in the
system rack.
• Always switch off the voltage before extracting a board which cannot be exchanged while
under voltage. Wait a sufficient time for the capacitors to discharge.
• Switch off voltage to the system and withdraw all boards at least 20 mm before electrical
welding is performed near the controller system.
• A warning label is fixed in the system to draw attention to possible damage by ESD
(Electro Static Discharge).
5.1.3 Safety
Check that all screwed joints and connections within the cabinets are tightened effectively.
Ensure that wiring, circuit boards and other electrical components are undamaged.
Pay particular attention to overheating, damaged insulation or signs of wear.
5.1.4 Cleanliness
Remove dust and any other soil from the cabinet with a vacuum cleaner. Use a lint-free cloth,
dampened with methylated spirits, to remove stubborn dirt.
NOTE
A message is deleted from the message queue in the system as soon as it is
transmitted to the engineering station. It is important to log the information to a
printer.
5.4.1 Introduction
Diagnostics are available in different forms for rapid localization of the source of the equipment
malfunction. Hardware error is usually corrected by replacing the faulty unit, which is returned
to ABB for repairs. The least replaceable unit is normally a circuit board or an apparatus like a
power supply unit.
Disturbances and system halt caused by software error are commonly solved by a manual
system restart. Sometimes you must load the application program, reinforcing the need for
actual backup copies. In such situations, it is strongly recommended that you take careful note
of all available stored error codes and system messages before an eventual program loading and
new initialization. Then contact ABB for further information.
External faults in process wiring and transducers can also affect the function of the controller.
However, this type of fault is not discussed in this manual.
Debugging of PC programs is described in the reference manual AMPL Configuration Advant
Controller 400 Series.
Engineering Station
• Halt codes stored in a stopped system. Read with the command LSYSHI:
– Show error or halt code. See Section 5.3, Error Messages.
• System messages. Read with the command LSYSM ALL:
– Most information in coded form
– Give information about probable cause of malfunction.
See Section 5.3, Error Messages.
Process Control
Certain controller faults, for example those related to process I/O board channels, will probably
be detected indirectly when a control function goes wrong. For most I/O board types, there is
limited or no system diagnostics support on channel level.
A tank can indicate high level because of an error in the current output stage to a control valve.
An oil flow can indicate low value because of a lost measured value which in turn is caused by
an input amplifier fault, and so on.
To minimize the down-time, it is important in such cases that the operator have a good overview
and knowledge of the plant functions.
It is also essential that the control system design, in addition to the normal control functions,
include supervision of important process objects and their system inputs and outputs as well.

Introduction
Perform fault finding in a systematic and logical manner.
You must make a distinction between a system which has been in operation and a system which
has not been operated previously. In the latter case, always check the following indications first,
if relevant:
• The cabinet has mains voltage connected
• All circuit boards are plugged in correctly
• All connections are made correctly
• All boards are jumpered correctly.
If these checks do not correct the malfunction, continue with the procedures described below.

A Complex Scenario
The system diagnostics does not always point out a replaceable unit. Fault finding must be done.
In, for example, a stand-alone system, the following may happen:
1. An audible alarm initialized by the run/alarm relay indicates controller shut-down.
2. If installed in any redundant system, process alarm and process shut-down indications
appear as a consequence.
3. In the controller cabinet, perhaps a complex indication exists. Different red LEDs lighten.
An halt code is shown on the processor module character display.
4. The fault is classified by you with respect to the indications. See Section 5.4.4, Fault
Classification.
5. Outgoing from the fault classification you will probably proceed with advanced fault
finding. Some hints and general fault finding procedures are given in the following
sections. However practical experiences from a training course is normally needed to get
to the source of failure.
6. When localized, the faulty module is replaced.
Common user repair is described in Section 5.4.10, User Repair.
7. For instructions for restarting a system after a fault is corrected, see
Section 5.4.16, System Restart, INIT.
A general rule when dealing with complex indications is:
A fault indication in a superior function makes indications in subordinated functions
mostly inapplicable.
For example, if the processor module indicates red FAULT, there is probably no relevance in
any red FAULT indications on communication modules.

CAUTION
PM150 can not be replaced while power supply is switched on.
NOTE ALSO!
If the supply to a subrack is switched on before the PM150 is in place,
the process outputs in the subrack can set themselves in optional states!
• If the fault indicating LEDs on several I/O boards illuminate, follow instructions in
Section 5.4.9.9, Fault Finding by Reducing the System
• Check the process signal status.
The status of the digital signals (DSDI, DSDO) is indicated for each signal connection to
the process by a yellow LED. The values of analog signals can be measured at test points
on the front panel. Detailed information can be found in the manual S100 I/O Hardware.
• Check the power supply units for the actual I/O subrack. Check for blown fuses and other
reasons for voltage disconnection.
• Check fuses for process signals. Most connection units contain fuses. The coupling is
shown in the circuit diagram for the equipment delivered.
• Check signal levels on the connection unit screwed terminal. Use a digital voltmeter and
connect to the measurement terminal on the terminal blocks.
• Check the signal values in the data base in accordance with the instructions in the
reference manual AMPL Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series.
• Check the signal values in the PC diagram in accordance with the instructions in reference
manual AMPL Configuration Advant Controller 400 Series.
CAUTION
The Processor Module PM150 can not be treated that way while power
supply is switched on.
NOTE ALSO!
If the supply to the subrack is switched on before the PM150 is in place,
the process outputs in the subrack can set themselves in optional states!
You should carefully follow general instructions and the information attached each board/unit
type in Section 5.4.10.1, Board and Subrack Mounted Unit Exchange.
The consequences to the process controlled must also be considered.
Proceed as follows:
1. Note the halt code on the processor module character display and the red LED indicators,
throughout the controller and its I/O, which illuminate
2. Perform a warm start that is an initialization with the start mode selector in position
AUTO. If not successful continue at step 3.
3. Reduce the system until only the following modules remain
– 5 V Regulator
– Backup Power Supply SB171
– Processor Module PM150
– Program card
4. Perform a new warm start. If the system does not start continue at step 5. If the system
starts the fault is probably in the communication or the I/O system. Continue as follows:
a. Expand the system by returning modules to their original location.
b. First add communication interface modules, then the S100 I/O boards, one at a time,
until the fault reappears
c. Replace the module in which the fault appears
d. Perform a warm start.
5. Perform a cold start i.e depress the ENTER button with the start mode selector in position
CLEAR. Please note that the program card with the system program must be in its
position.
If the system does not start continue at step 6. If the system starts the fault is probably in
the data base or the PC program. Continue at step 7.
6. Replace the processor module and the program card, one at a time, until the controller
starts in CLEAR mode. Perform a cold start after each replacement that is depress the
ENTER button with the start mode selector in position CLEAR.
7. Load in an available application program backup
8. Expand the system to full configuration.
General
In the following text, the word “board” also includes circuit board and rack mounted unit
(applicable). An example of such a unit is a voltage regulator or backup power supply.
It is important to understand the consequences of a board exchange on-line and how it affects
the current situation, for example:
• Replacement of an I/O board affects all channels on the board. It also sometimes indirectly
affects the outputs via an application function, for example a closed loop control.
• Replacement of a communication board type CI531 affects both channels on the board.
Before output boards (both analog and digital) are replaced, it is preferable to separate the
different outputs from the process, that is, open terminal switches on the connection units (or
take other adequate measures). In some applications, this is an absolute requirement for safety
reasons.
The system software in Advant Controller 410 checks automatically that all I/O boards function
correctly. In the event of board fault, and board exchange, the board and associated signals are
marked as faulty in the data base. While the fault marking persists, the value (VALUE) is not
updated in the data base.
The system software checks that the board is inserted and correct. If this is the case, the fault-
diode extinguishes (after 10 s), the fault marking in the data base is reset and the board resumes
its normal function.
Under the following headings, you can find general instructions for replacement of circuit
boards and information on the handling of individual circuit boards.
Practical Execution
Replace faulty or suspect circuit boards and units as described below.
1. Do not forget to read Section 5.4.6, Safety Regulations.
2. Look under the heading Additional Aspects of Individual Board Types, below, for other
useful information.
3. If necessery switch off the power supply to the Advant Controller. Then keep the start
mode switch on the front of the processor module in the AUTO position.
4. Provide access to the board by loosening the locking mechanisms:
– The bar in front of the boards in the I/O subrack.
– The screws in the handles (submodules on the processor module). First disconnect
all cables.
5. Grip the board firmly and extract the board quickly and decisively (I/O subrack).
Use both handles (submodules on the processor module).
6. Check that the new board can replace the old:
– Ensure that the eventual jumpering is the same as the old board.
See Table 5-1 and Table 5-2.

DANGER
Power supply units should be replaced by authorized service personnel only.
The branch A or B which is to be repaired must be carefully defined.
The replacement instruction focuses on the unregulated power supply units SA16x (a.c.) and
DSSA 15x (d.c.). However the principles are valid for power switch and distribution unit
replacement as well.
Replacing a power supply unit shall always be carried out with highest safety possible.
Basically this means that voltage supply should always be switched off during repair and
installation work. Special provision is made for a system including redundancy where
replacement is urgently needed in a live system.
Before replacing a primary power supply unit, break its mains switch S1 in the power switch
unit (for the actual mains A or B). When the power supply unit is pluggable, unplug the power
cord. Where the power supply installation is fixed also switch off a safety breaker or remove the
actual fuse in the buildings mains installation before working in the power supply circuitry.
On Line Replacement
1. Switch off the actual mains supply branch in the cabinet and wait until the capacitors in
the power supply units have discharged. When the power supply system is loaded,
the discharge takes 10 secs and when unloaded, 60 secs. Use the switch S1 on the actual
power switch unit.
2. Gain access to the connectors on the voltage supply unit.
3. Check with a volt meter that the voltage supply unit is “dead” on both the primary and
secondary sides. Any faulty voting diode can give a secondary “back” voltage.
4. Disconnect actual connectors (plugs or terminals).
5. Unscrew the screws which keep the unit in place and remove unit from the frame.
6. Install the new unit in the reverse order.
Reconnect all plug connectors (terminals).
7. Switch on the mains supply and test for the unit function.
LED LIVE on the 24 V distribution unit (SX554) should light. A volt meter connected to
the test terminal on the distribution unit should read 19 V - 32 V.
DSSR 122
1. Switch off the mains supply.
Use the power switch S1 on the power switch unit.
2. Open the hinged frame to gain access to the unit and the connection terminals on the rear
side of the I/O subrack
3. Disconnect the 24 V supply lead at the screw terminal
4. Loosen the 5 V screw on the subrack 5 V terminal bar
5. Loosen the 0 V screw on the subrack 0 V terminal bar
6. Unscrew the screws which hold the regulator unit and remove it from the rack, lifting the
regulator upwards thus disengaging it from the 5 V, 0 V terminals
7. Check that the new unit can replace the old:
– Check for lowest revision approved variant to be used for the equipment and use
replacement of the same or higher revision number
8. Install new unit in the reverse order
9. Switch on the mains supply voltage. With the processor module start mode selector in
position AUTO the system will be automatically initialized and restarted.
10. Check 5 V (5.0 V - 5.25 V) on the test terminals using a volt meter.
DSSR 170
1. The replacement is made on line. That is with the mains supply on. The controller
operation is not disturbed.
2. Open the hinged frame to gain access to the unit on the rear side of the I/O subrack
NOTE
The battery includes cadmium and shall be treated as hazardous waste.
General
It is important to understand the consequences of a connection unit exchange on-line and how it
affects the current situation, for example:
Replacement of a connection unit affects all channels on the corresponding I/O board.
It also sometimes indirectly affects the outputs via some application function, for example
a closed loop control.
Practical Execution
Replace faulty or suspect connection units as described below:
1. See that process connections (signals and power supply) are disconnected before starting
the replacement work.
Determine where it is easiest to disconnect on a case-by-case basis because of the
differences in different applications. In some cases, you can disconnect the signals/power
supply at a cross-coupling, in other cases, at process transducers and at the location where
the power supply is distributed.
2. Disconnect the internal cable which joins the connection unit and corresponding circuit
board.
3. Label the leads so that they can be connected to the new unit correctly.
4. Disconnect the leads. Unscrew the fixing screws. Remove.
5. Install the new unit in the reverse order. Ensure that the screws make contact with the
tinned surface of the earth plane of the circuit board for effective grounding.
6. Test the function.
General instructions are provided in the adjustment instructions below. The detailed information
for individual circuit boards, for example, location of test terminals, location of potentiometers,
jumpering, function descriptions, and so on, is provided in the manual S100 I/O Hardware.
If the potentiometers are not accessible on the front, place the board on an extension board
DSFB 110. On the units which can be adjusted channel by channel, adjust the channels before
the A/D converter.
The following aids are required for the adjustments.
• A reference voltage supply unit, with adjustable output within the range 0 - 10.5 V and
with resolution 0.1 mV. The supply unit is not to have mains noise or hum in excess of
0.1 mV. If no supply unit is available, you can use a battery, a potentiometer and a digital
voltmeter with corresponding resolution.
• An adjustable voltage supply unit with rating 100 V.
• A digital voltmeter for the range 0 - 10.5 V with 0.1 mV resolution, accuracy exceeding
that required for the board by a wide margin.

Adjustment for Boards DSAI 130, DSAI 133 and DSAX 110
The A/D converter is adjusted in three operations:
• Adjustment of zero point Z (automatically adjusted on DSAI 133)
• Adjustment of full scale value G
• Adjustment of symmetry S (only DSAI 130, normally unnecessary).
The adjustments are performed in the same order as given here (zero point, full scale value and
symmetry, if relevant).
Adjust AI units which are intended for voltage or current signals with the help of a voltage
reference. If all inputs are jumpered for current, and none are unused so that the solder jumper
can be clipped, you can use a voltage reference which can give at least 20.5 mA for a channel
jumpered for a current shunt.
In this case, set CONV_PAR on the data base element to -20..20 mA, 0..20 mA or
-5..5 V, and half the reference voltage is used instead of the values specified below as an internal
gain multiplied by 2 is used.
An input and corresponding data base element are selected for the adjustment. If an unused
input is selected, ensure that ACT is set to 1 and afterward reset to 0. Select a signal with
CONV_PAR=-10..10 V (exception in accordance with the above) or change CONV_PAR in the
data base element concerned.
Make the updating continuous by setting DEADB=-1 and FILTER_P=0 (note previous values
so that they can be reset after the adjustment).
The reference voltage for the adjustment is connected to the connection unit and the measured
value is read with an engineering station.
The potentiometers Z,G and S are located in the lower half of the front of the board.
Adjustment of the Zero Point on the A/D Converter
Adjust the reference voltage to the corresponding, a half step for the A/D converter:
DSAI 130 12 bits 1/2 bit = 1.25 mV
DSAI 133, DSAX 110 12 bits Automatic adjustment of zero
Adjust the potentiometer Z on the board front, reading the unscaled value in the data base at the
same time.
Use the command GETAB on the engineering station to read the unscaled value continuously:
GETAB
IV=AIX.Y:16 (Insert Value, AI= Analog Input, X = board number, Y = signal number,
16 is the property number of the unscaled value)
GVD (Get Value Dynamically)
Example:
IV=AI1.1:16
will show unscaled value of first input of first board.
The zero point is correctly adjusted when the value varies between zero and a value
corresponding to an increment for the A/D converter, 128 for DSAI 110 and 8 for DSAI 130.
Adjustment of the Full-scale Value on the A/D Converter
Perform the adjustment with negative voltage. If negative signals are not used, use a positive
reference voltage. Adjust the reference voltage connected to the negative (or positive) input to
the full-scale value 10 000 mV.
Adjust the potentiometer G while reading the value. The full-scale value (gain) is correctly
adjusted when the unscaled positive value is 32 000 ±8 (negative value 64 768 ±8) for 12-bit
boards and 32 000 ±128 (negative value 64 768 ±128) for 8-bit boards.
The Gain is automatically adjusted on DSAI 133 and DSAX 110 with help of an on board
voltage reference. However, this voltage reference may be adjusted if necessary with a
potentiometer, R9 on DSAI 133 and R14 on DSAX 110, in the same manner as above.
Adjustment of Symmetry (DSAI 130)
If the full-scale value (gain) is adjusted for negative voltage, you can adjust or check the
symmetry with the help of positive reference voltage. This is performed in the same way as for
full-scale adjustment but with positive voltage and with the potentiometer S.
Resetting - to Stop the GETAB-command
<SHIFT--BREAK> (to conclude the updating)
DV
END.
Note for DSAI 151: The board uses the same excitation current for a complete group of seven
transducers. If the current loop is broken, the measurement on all seven channels ceases and an
error message is sent. Avoid this by short-circuiting the input while the reference resistor is
connected.
Jumper all inputs not used.
Zero Point Adjustment
The Z potentiometer need not be field-adjusted since the software handling of DSAI 145/146
and DSAI 151 has automatic zero adjustment (which offsets any adjustment within 10 seconds).
If the Z potentiometer is not adjusted correctly, it is sufficient to set it to the middle of its range.
If, however, you find a setting where the Fault LED is lit (reference channel error), turn the
potentiometer away from this setting.
Adjustment of Full-Scale Value
Connect a 300 ohm resistor ±0.01% (which corresponds to 558°C for a Pt100 transducer).
Adjust the potentiometer G on the board front at the same time as the value in the data base is
read as it was previously. The full-scale value is adjusted correctly when the VALUE is 558°C.
(Read VALUE continuously using the subcommand GVD.)
Resetting
Stop the GETAB command as described in the preceding chapter.
Reset the values for CONV_PAR, FILTER_P and DEADB.
Connect the process input or the jumper in the same way as when the reference resistor is
connected.
The output signal is measured on the connection unit after the load is replaced with the
instrument in accordance with Figure 5-19 and Figure 5-20.

Description
The Energy Reservoir DSSB 170 is a capacitor unit intended for use with
24 V direct supply (without d.c./d.c. converter). In the event of mains
power failure, the unit provides the system with energy necessary for
storage of important data.
DSSB 170 is built up on a 19-inch apparatus plate.
The controller and the first I/O subrack require one energy reservoir.
Additional I/O subracks need a second unit.
The following description refers to the block diagram (next page).
The capacitor charging current is limited with a low-resistance power resistor.
The energy stored in the capacitors is discharged via a resistor when the unit is
disconnected from the mains power supply and the load.
Unregulated d.c. supply is connected at the terminals X1:1 - 4. The output
X2:1 - 4 supplies the 5 V regulator units with 24 V.
A serial diode prevents the energy stored in the unit from leaking back to the
supply mains in the event of a power failure.

Description
SB171 holds four different functions: Backup Power Supply/Battery Charger, Status Collector,
External Time Synchronization, and RUN Signal Handler. These are described separately below.
The module is positioned at the rear side of the I/O subrack (containing the processor module)
to interface with the backplane bus and the battery.
24 V d.c. supply voltage, alarm signal, time synchronization and RUN signal are connected to
two groups of terminal blocks (X1, X2). The battery is connected via a separate connector (X4).
Flat cable (X3) included in the SB171 design is used to join the backplane bus.
Backup Power Supply/Battery Charger
The battery charger works together with one single battery package, e.g., SB522. These two modules
are intended to be used for current supply of processor module RAM in the event of mains supply drop out.
The capacity expressed in time of backup depends on the application. Please refer to the actual
Advant Controller documentation.
The input energy is converted and used for 5 V internal unit supply and by a controlled current generator
for battery charging. Input and output to the battery are not galvanically isolated.
During normal operation, a LED CHARGE on the module front lights up.
Diagnostic functions continuously supervise the operation. Error and other status information is
available for processing by the system status function.

Description
Power Switch and Distribution units (PSD units) are modular designs fitting 19-inch rails.
A rail houses up to three units.
Use PSD units to switch on/off the mains supply to an Advant Controller installation
and for internal power distribution.
Normally the modular box has three socket outlets. The internal connections are made
pluggable to the PSD unit.
Some PSD types have extra terminal blocks to permit series connection of additional units
and thus expand the number of socket outlets and matching miniature circuit breakers.
PSD units designed to be directly connected to the mains supply are equipped with a main
power switch labeled S1. Expansion units lack the switch S1.
PSD units are divided into two categories:
• Main power supply for the Advant Controller
(for connection to mains A or the redundant mains B, a.c. or d.c.)
• Auxiliary power supply for, for example modems, battery charger, etc.
(for connection to mains C, a.c. only).
These PSD units are referred to by “main” and “aux,” respectively, in the Table A-9, under the heading below, Technical Data.
Different types of PSD units are available to meet various requirements. See Table A-9.
The figure below represents the generalized appearance of the different types.

Description
Use the power distribution panel SX554 unit for distribution
of 24 V or 48 V d.c. tension within an Advant Controller 410/450.
It mounts right below an SA1xx power supply unit and may be utilized
as a support during replacement of a heavy-weight power supply unit.
SX554 is a connector printed circuit board mounted in a steel frame.
It has two screw terminals for the power inlet, and one fast-on tab connected
to the steel frame (for example, used for grounding a cable shield).
Fast-on tabs are utilized for the unfused power outlets to controller and
I/O subracks and for the five two-pole male connectors fused 10A for connection to
low-power consumption units like modems, backup battery chargers and
field equipment.
The SX554 has an LED indicating a voltage at the power inlet,
one outlet X12 which can be used for remote sensing/measuring
the input terminal voltage, and a dual fast-on tab outlet fused 1A.

D.1 General
To use the documents provided at delivery, you must be familiar with the item designation
system used in Advant Controller cabinets.
Each component in the system has a unique designation which indicates exactly the location of
the component in the cabinet. This designation consists of a letter followed by a numerical
combination. The letter specifies the mounting plane, and the numbers designate the level in the
cabinet and the position in the cabinet.
This description applies to cabinet type RM500 and Advant Controller 400 Series.
D.2 Cabinet
Mounting planes in cabinets are designated as shown in Figure D-1.
When there are several cabinets, they are designated 1 and 2 from the left.
The mounting planes are for example 1B, 2B and so on.
All mounting planes A, B, C, D, E, H, V (hinged frame) and U (hinged frame) are divided
vertically into height modules (U), 1U = 44.45 mm (see Figure D-1).
Mounting planes B, U and V are for 19” units and H is for 24” units.
The mounting planes A and C have a horizontal partition of 25 mm. They are numbered 1, 2, 3
and so on from the rear and forward (see Figure D-1).
The levels specified are those of the upper left-hand corners of the units installed.
The cabinet is designated with a letter combination followed by figures. The + sign prefix
indicates that the designation is location-oriented.

Description
The compact Advant Controller 410 consist of a single subrack with attached battery unit for RAM backup. Ten S100 I/O board
slots have been used for a built in modem subrack which accommodate maximum four modems. The remaining five I/O slots
may be used freely. From the functional viewpoint this is the only limitation with reference to the common standard
Advant Controller 410.
Since some of the electronic modules, for example the 5 V regulator, are mounted on the rear side of the subrack this side must
be accessible for maintenance reason.

the concept while the least significant word 0002 represents the instance number. Convert with
the help of Table J-11 to decimal form. Apply the decimal form and do MDB 286.2 to see the
corresponding data base.
From a more general viewpoint the command LCT is used to list all types of data base elements
in the system and all its concepts (LOF FILE). If the logical file for a certain data base element
is required, search for it in the UCONCSTR column and follow the line out to LOGFILE. An S
has been added for channels, e.g.: DI-channel is designated DIS. DI-channel has logical file 8.
DI-boards have logical file 4.
In the Advant Controller 400 Series, numbers in hexadecimal notation are identified by an
introductory H’. Decimal notation is used otherwise.
Examples: H’0000357A Hexadecimal
00003578 Decimal
The following shows a table for rapid conversion of up to four-figure hexadecimal numbers.
If the number contains more figures, the value can be calculated in accordance with the
examples above.
For example: H’257E = 8192 + 1280 + 112 + 14
