New Ethernet based peer-to-peer

communication

Ethernet based communication

The System Controller Connect provides a dedi

cated, high speed, and secure interface between

Symphony Harmony/Symphony Plus systems and

800xA systems/safety systems.

Applications

The System Controller Connect software can be

used in applications requiring a:

• Fast and reliable interface between electrical and

process controllers

• Controller Connectivity for real-time data ex

change in mixed systems

• Interface between Symphony Harmony/S+ based

DCS controller and AC 800M High Integrity safety

controller

Overview

System Controller Connect is a software product

which is loaded and executed in a Symphony Har

mony/Symphony Plus controller.

System Controller Connect supports Manufacturing

Message Specification (MMS) protocol in the Sym

phony Controller. The  System Controller Connect

software is deployed as an MMS Client Application.

The AC 800M controller acts as a  Server and re

sponds to MMS commands sent from the System

Controller Connect client. The client application

reads/writes blocks of data in order to maximize ef

ficiency. This is accomplished by forming scan

The System Controller Connect

software provides a real time

dedicated and secure interface

between Harmony/Symphony Plus

systems and 800xA systems or

Safety systems.

groups containing a set number of access variable

values.

The System Controller Connect interface performs

non-SIL based communications that can be used for

‘high speed’ real-time data exchange communica

tion.

Features and benefits

• Transfer of 800xA tag values to the Symphony Har

mony / Symphony Plus system using MMS proto

col. MMS is a native protocol of the System 800xA

AC 800M controllers and thus needs minimal con

figuration effort and no additional hardware com

ponents.

• MMS access variables in the AC 800M controller

are supported in the user friendly interface. En

tries are defined as either read or write.

• Communication rates are fully tunable to meet re

quirements.

System 800xA values now available within the Har

mony blockware can be displayed in the Symphony

Harmony HMI.

System Controller Connect supports a fully redun

dant interface.  Redundant failovers are ‘bumpless’.

Redundant Ethernet address of the AC 800M con

troller using RNRP is fully supported.

Description

The basic unit, PM 802F and respectively PM803F, cyclically

scans signals from the fieldbus sensors via the corresponding

fieldbus modules, processes these signals according the appli

cation programs installed by the user and sends appropriate

signals to the fieldbus actuators via the fieldbus modules.

Controller redundancy can be achieved by installing two

AC 800F. To ensure quick and smooth takeover by the secon

dary AC 800F in case the primary AC 800F fails, a dedicated

redundancy communications link through the second Ethernet

module makes sure that both AC 800F are always synchro

nized. All inputs and outputs are designed to support redundant

operation.

Data communication between AC 800F, process and operator

stations runs over the Ethernet system bus on the first Ethernet

module. Data exchange with the engineering station is also car

ried via the system bus. Engineering station communications

can involve new or updated configuration files being

downloaded to the process stations, or information about the

connected modules being reported back. When fieldbus mod

ules are installed or exchanged, the required configuration in

formation is automatically updated.

Configuration and real-time process data is stored in RAM. To

safeguard this data in case of power loss, the RAM power is

backed up with batteries located either on the Ethernet modules

or on battery modules.

The PM 803F has more memory than the PM 802F and is

therefor capable to handle larger projects. Due to increased

memory size and different technology the buffering times were

reduced.

AC 800F Controller Redundancy

Controller redundancy can be achieved by installing two

AC 800F. To ensure quick and smooth takeover by the secon

dary AC 800F in case the primary AC 800F fails, a dedicated

redundancy communications link through the second Ethernet

module makes sure that both AC 800F are always synchro

nized. All inputs and outputs are designed to support redundant

operation.

Profibus Line Redundancy

Using the Redundancy Link Module RLM 01 will do the conver

sion of one simple, non-redundant Profibus line into two recip

rocally redundant lines.

You can position the Redundancy Link Module RLM 01 directly

after a Profibus module (master), before a bus segment with

several slaves or before an individual slave. PROFIBUS sta

tions with redundant couplers can be directly connected to the

PROFIBUS set redundant by RLM 01. Stations with only one in

terface can be optionally assigned to the one or other line.

For technical description dates of the Redundancy Link Module

RLM 01 see document 3BDD011600R0201.

An alternative solution to the Profibus line redundancy is to use

a Fiber Optic Ring, for example with the OZD Profi 12M module

from firm Hirschmann

AC800F Redundancy together with Profibus Line Re

dundancy

You can achieve both; controller redundancy and Profibus line

redundancy by using two AC 800F with one RLM01 each. This

topology combines the advantages of controller redundancy

with the one of line redundancy as described in the above

paragraphs.

AC 800F opens up the flexibility of Fieldbustechnology to the user.  The AC 800F collects

and processes diagnostic and process datafrom four Fieldbus lines, which may be of different types.  It does this in addition to thetasks of a “conventional” process station.

The AC 800F is available in two versions:

• 4 MB static RAM, 4 MB EPROM

• 16 MB synchronous dynamic RAM,

8 MB EPROM

Up to 4 (different) fieldbus modules can be

plugged into the AC 800F.  The communication

with other controllers runs via Ethernet.

The AC 800F optionally provides several levels

of redundancy:

• device redundancy with 2  AC 800F

• power supply redundancy (24 V DC)

• Ethernet communication redundancy

(standard)

• Cable redundancy for Profibus DP,

requires external equipment (RLM01)
