Functional Description

DS213SPICNDEVCOM is a DEVCOM Service Pack developed by GE. It is part of the GE Speedtronic Mark V control system. This service pack is designed to facilitate communication and data exchange between the Mark V system and Distributed Control Systems (DCS) or other external plant automation networks.

Speedtronic Mark V Control System Features

The Speedtronic Mark V control system is used extensively for managing gas and steam turbines in industrial and power generation settings. One of its key strengths lies in its communication flexibility, enabling seamless integration with plant-level systems. It is crucial role in this capability by serving as the interface that supports various communication protocols and links.

• DCS Interface via I Processor: The Mark V system supports integration with Distributed Control Systems (DCS) using communication from the I/O processor (I processor). This allows for centralized plant control and monitoring.
• Modbus Slave Communication: The service pack supports Modbus protocol, which is a widely used industrial communication standard. Through the Modbus Slave Station interface, the Mark V system can communicate with external DCS or SCADA systems, enabling efficient data exchange and command execution.
• Ethernet Connectivity (IEEE 802.3 Compliance): The Mark V system includes a standard Ethernet link, compliant with IEEE 802.3 specifications for both the physical and Medium Access Control (MAC) layers. This ensures robust and standardized network communication.
• GE Proprietary Protocol over Ethernet: In addition to open protocols like Modbus, a proprietary GE protocol can be used over the Ethernet link for enhanced features, security, or functionality specific to GE turbine control applications.
• Hardwired Interface Option: For critical or legacy systems, a hardwired interface is also available, providing another reliable method of direct signal communication with external devices.
