FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

IS215UCCAH3A is a Controller Board manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark VIe series used in gas turbine control systems. A 650 MHz Intel Celeron CPU powers the single-slot board known as the IS215UCCAH3A. Connectivity to the Unit Data Highway is provided by a 10BaseT/100BaseTX (RJ-45) Ethernet connector (UDH). A watchdog timer and two PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) sites are present. The Mark VIe controller's processor board serves as its computing power. The IS200EPMC, the Control Processor Board, 128 MB of flash memory, and 128 MB of DRAM are all included in the module assembly known as the Control Processor Board.

The application code is run on the UCCx controllers, a set of 6U high, CompactPCI® (CPCI), and single-board computers. Through onboard I/O network interfaces, the controller connects to the I/O packs and mounts inside a CPCI enclosure. QNX Neutrino, a real-time, multitasking OS created for industrial applications requiring high speed and high reliability, serves as the controller operating system (OS). The following links to the operator, engineering, and I/O interfaces are provided by five communication ports:

• An Ethernet connection to allow communication with HMIs and other control devices over the Unit Data Highway (UDH).

• The R, S, and T I/O network's Ethernet connection

• RS-232C setup connection through the COM1 port.

INSTALLATION:

The controller module includes a controller and a four-slot CPCI rack with one or two power supplies, at the very least. The leftmost slot must contain the principal controller (slot 1). A single rack can hold a second, third, and fourth controller. To increase the battery's lifespan while being stored, the CMOS battery is unplugged via a processor board jumper. The battery jumper needs to be reinstalled before inserting the board. For the position of the jumpers, consult the design for the relevant UCCx module. The internal date and real-time clock, as well as the CMOS RAM settings, are all powered by the battery. Since the CMOS settings are set to their appropriate default values by the BIOS, there is no need to change them. The real-time clock alone needs to be reset. Using the ToolboxST program or the system NTP server, the initial time and date can be set.

If the board is the system board (slot 1 board) and there are other boards in the rack, the other boards will stop functioning if the system board is ejected. When replacing any board in the rack, it is advised that power be turned off. You can eliminate rack power using one of the following techniques.

• A switch is provided in a single power supply unit to turn off the outputs of the power supply.

• In a dual power supply device, power can be securely removed by ejecting both power supplies.

• Unplug the Mate-N-Lok®connector(s) for the bulk power input on the CPCI enclosure's base.

• Make use of a distant disconnect switch.

The UCCx module contains injectors/ejectors at the bottom and top, unlike Mark VI VME boards which only offered ejectors. The top ejector should be slanted upward, and the bottom ejector should be tilted downward, before sliding the board into the rack. The injectors should be used to fully insert the board once the connector on the rear of the board has made contact with the backplane connector. To accomplish this, pull up on the bottom ejector while pressing down on the top injector. Don't forget to tighten the top and bottom injector/ejector screws to complete the installation. This offers a chassis ground connection and mechanical security.

 
OPERATION:

The controller has software tailored to its use, such as balance-of-plant (BOP) products, land-marine aero derivatives (LM), steam, and gas, among others. It can move blocks or rungs. The I/O packs and controllers' clocks are synchronized within 100 microseconds using the IEEE 1588 standard via the R, S, and T IONets.

Through the R, S, and T IONets, external data is sent to and received from the control system database in the controller. Process inputs and outputs to the I/O packs are included in a simplex system.

DUAL SYSTEMS:

• Handle inputs and outputs for the I/O packs
• Data on initialization and internal state variables from the selected controller
• Information on the synchronization and status of both controllers

TRIPLE MODULAR REDUNDANT SYSTEMS:

• Handle inputs and outputs for the I/O packs
• Internal voting state values, status data, and synchronization data from each of the three controllers
• Details of the specified controller's initialization

CONFIGURATION:

Before connecting to the UDH Ethernet, the controller needs to be set up with a TCP/IP address. This is accomplished using the COM1 serial port and the ToolboxST application.
