The central ring supports up to 250 nodes Multiple subrings link to the ‘central ring through local and remote interfaces (shown on cover) Each subring supports up to 250 nodes Interfacing INFI-NET provides sophisticated interfaces for data exchange These network interface units use state-of the-art INFI 90 modules Refer to RELATED HARDWARE for a list of INF-NET modules that make up each interface amaximum 250 subrings from the central ring gives a total system capacity of 62.500 nodes Related Hardware Process Conirol Unit interface Interface | Modules Hardware Description PCU INNPMO1 __| Network Processing Module TNNISOT Network Interface Slave Module INFL-NET to Computer Interface interface | Modules Hardware Desorption INICIO® INICTOT INF-NET to Computer Transfer Module INNISOT Network Interface Slave Module INFI-NET to INFI-NET Local Interface Interface Modules Hardware Description INILOT iNiTOT TNFENET to INFENET Transfer Module TNNISOT Network interface Slave Module INFENET to INFI-NET Remote Interface interface | Modules Hardware Description INTIROT INITOR INFENET to INFI-NET Transfer Module INNISOT Network Interface Slave Module INFE-NET to Plant Loop Local interface Interface | Modules Hardware Description INIPLOT TNIPTOT INFENET to Plant Loop Transfer Module INNISOT Network Interface Slave ModuleProcess Control Unit Interface (PCU) The Process Control Unt Interface (Figure 1) consists of the Network Interface Stave (INNISO1) and the Network, Processing Module {INNPMO1) Through this ntertace the PCU has access to INFI-NET The NIS links the node to INFL-NET, while the NPM, communicating to the master modules viathe Controlway, holds the Process Control Unit database The NPM polls all modules for Exception Reports Ithas user-selectable poll rates with a maximum of 4 poll ‘cycles/second The NPMpackages messages by grouping ot OT those with a common destination Transmission of packaged messages maximizes data throughput The NIS and NPM execute module secunty checks of hardware and software Error detection takes the node off-line without interrupting the loop (this 1s true for all INFI-NET interfaces) The PCU Interface can support hardware redundancy (Figure 2) In a redundant conhguration, there are two NIS and two NPM modules One pair of modules ss the primary |W the primary fais, the backup comes on-ine ra oral FIGURE 1 — Process Control Unut InterfaceWHEI-TIET Fits 1 ME-UC : Fe WDE FIGURE 2 — Redtondant Process Control nu hnterpaceINFI-NET to Computer Interface (ICI) The INFI-NET to Computer Interface (Figure 3) consists of a Network Interface Slave Module (INNISO1). an INFLNET to Computer Transfer Module (INICTO1) and related support hardware It gives a host computer access to point data Point data is available through a RS-232-C serial hnk at standard rates up to 19 2 Kbaud ‘The INFI-NET to Computer Interfaces command driven through software on the host computer The ICI receives ‘a.command from the host, executes it and then replies to the host Data Acquisition ‘The host computer butlds a database (up to 10,000 points) inthe ICI The host has access to the database with data acquisition commands Configuration The ICI can download contro! strategy configurations to INFI 90 modules It also allows the user to tune and read block outputs using an operator console or host computer Process Contro! The command list enables a host computer to handle analog and digital process requirements such as changing setpoints and control outputs.
