3.1.4 Subrack
The 10-position controller subrack, RF616, is the primary subrack of an Advant Controller 160.
It provides dedicated positions for Processor Modules, communication and bus extender mod-
ules.
There is a two-digit thumb wheel switch for setting the station address. The individual module
address is given by its position in the subrack.
The bus connector links the controller subrack to an optional extension subrack via a bus cable
(TK612).
The 10-position extension subrack, RF620, extends the number of I/O modules of a station.

Description Value
Nominal voltage 24 V d.c.
Acceptable voltage range 19.2 to 30 V d.c.
EMI protection level None (station voltage must be filtered)
The use of the power supply module SA610 is recommended. SA610 is housed in the standard
module enclosure and occupies one position in the subrack. SA610 provides reinforced primary
voltage isolation, excellent EMI filtering and buffering of short (10 ms for 110 V d.c. input and
20 ms for 230 V a.c. input) primary voltage drop out. If one SA610 is not sufficient, two can be
used in parallel within one subrack, i.e., up to four modules SA610 within one station (basic sta-
tion or I/O station).
Advant Controller 160 can be powered from an external 24 V d.c. power source (i.e. without
SA610). Special attention must be paid to grounding and noise level. An EMI filter must be
used, and the negative pole of the supply be grounded in the metallic part of the subrack.
All available power supply solutions are listed in the reference guide.

NOTE
• Up to 4 independent Advant Fieldbus 100 can be connected. For increased
availability, CI630 or CI631 can be used as redundant pairs (altogether 8 cou-
plers).
• If CI630 and/or CI626 and/or CI631 and/or CI627 are used, media redun-
dancy is fully supported.
• If CI626 is used: Coaxial media redundancy only is supported, with restric-
tions in cable length difference between the two redundant cables. With opti-
cal bus cable, only one physical bus line is possible.
CI630 and CI631 supervise if each Data Set to be sent via Advant Fieldbus 100 is cyclically
updated by the Processor Modules. In case of missing update CI630, CI631 stops sending the
respective Data Sets which is automatically detected by each receiving node.
Supported Configurations
Advant Controller 160 supports the following Advant Fieldbus 100 configurations:
• Communication with Advant Controller 70, 110, 160, 450, SattGraph 5000, AdvaSoft 2.0
Operator Station with OPC Server (Figure 3-5 to Figure 3-7).
• Coaxial, twisted pair and optical bus cables (Figure 3-5 to Figure 3-7).
• Redundant bus cables (Figure 3-5 to Figure 3-7).
• Redundant Communication Interfaces to Advant Fieldbus 100 (Figure 3-5).
• Second Advant Fieldbus 100 with redundant Communication Interface to communicate
with S800 I/O stations and subordinate Advant Controller 70, 110 or 160 (Figure 3-7).
When redundant media are used, redundancy must be maintained through the whole bus; this
comprises bus lines as well as connections of nodes to the bus.

3.3.2 PROFIBUS-DP
PROFIBUS is a high performance fieldbus which is used for communication between Advant
Controllers and PROFIBUS slaves (PROFIBUS DPMs, Distributed Peripheral Modules).
Therefore the PROFIBUS variation PROFIBUS-DP (Decentralized Periphery) is used.
The PROFIBUS-DP interface in Advant Controller 160 allows to connect PROFIBUS slaves. It
conforms with the PROFIBUS-DP standard EN 50170 and a subset of the extensions known as
PROFIBUS-DPV1.
Dimensioning
In Advant Controller 160, PROFIBUS can be configured as follows:
• Communication with up to 125 PROFIBUS-DP slaves per PROFIBUS, via twisted pair
bus cables according to EN 50170 (Figure 3-8).
• Up to 32 devices (master or DPMs or repeaters) per cable segment.
• Cable segment length up to 1,200 m.
• Up to 244/244 input/output bytes process data per PROFIBUS slave.
• Up to 236 input diagnostic data bytes per PROFIBUS slave.
• Transmission speed from 9,600 Baud up to 12 MBaud.
• Up to 6 Processor Modules PM644 can be used in an Advant Controller 160.
• It is recommended to use only certified PROFIBUS-DP slaves

by DB element types.
• The PROFIBUS-DP master and the PROFIBUS-DP slave devices are represented by DB
element instances.
When you are working with Control Builder A, the following tools and resources are available
to produce a PROFIBUS-DP DB element library which reflects the actual PROFIBUS-DP
slaves, modules, and signals as applicable:
• Model element library containing only the description of the PROFIBUS master and a
compact slave, the later serving as template
• PROFIBUS Library Editor that allows to extend the model element library with the
description of actual PROFIBUS slaves, modules, and signals.
The DB elements types created with the PROFIBUS Library Editor can be instantiated with the
Function Chart Builder of your Advant Controller applications.
In the next figure the hierarchy of the DB elements is shown:

Advant Controller 160 is fully modular, with modules mounted in 19" subracks. The subracks
are designed for mounting on the rear wall in a cabinet.
A minimal Advant Controller 160 configuration consists of one or two subracks containing the
two redundant Processor Modules and up to 18 I/O and communication modules.
In order to extend the number of I/O modules, up to 7 I/O stations may be connected to the
Basic Station, each consisting of up to two subracks.
To increase the numbers of I/Os, it is also possible to connect decentralized S800 I/O (Advant
Fieldbus 100 via CI627/CI631) and decentralized PROFIBUS-DP I/O (PROFIBUS-DP via
PM644), to the Advant Controller 160.

For connection of a local operator station (3rd party product), the Processor Module of Advant
Controller 160 is equipped with a MODBUS I serial interface.
SattGraph 5000 or AdvaSoft 2.0 for Windows NT Operator Stations using Advant OPC Server
are easily connected via Advant Fieldbus 100.
Using dual redundant Processor Modules, dual redundant communication interface modules to
Advant Fieldbus 100 and to I/O extension bus, dual redundant power supply modules and mains
supplies an increased availability of the Advant Controller 160 can be achieved.
Advant Controller 160 is fully modular with use of subracks for all modules. The subracks can
be installed in cabinets or can be mounted directly on the wall. All process connections can be
made to screw terminals on connections units.

The customer is able to apply the option to Advant Controller and Control Builder A himself.
The loader “adds” the code to the Advant Controller’s system software during run-time.
The advantage is, that there is no need to modify the system software itself. Thereby, the only
limitation for the number of add-on options is the available system FPROM memory of the pro-
cessor module, respectively its RAM size.
The description files for Control Builder A are read and compiled by the Setup Add-ons Utility
on the PC (for instance Advant Station 100 Series Engineering Station). An Add-on option may
also be distributed together with complete PC program applications that make use of PC ele-
ments that are included in the option.

The basic subrack of the controller may consist of one or two subracks.
In accordance to the desired Advant Controller 160 functionality the Basic Unit may be
equipped with a various number of the available Processor Modules and Communication Inter-
faces.
The following rules apply for hardware configuration of the basic station of a controller:
• The two subracks must be put in the same cabinet.
• The power supply terminals (USA, USB, ZD) of the two subracks must be linked. For
EMI considerations, the subracks should be grounded with a 16 mm2 copper lead.
• Up to six Processor Modules can be used within one Basic Unit.
• The Processor Modules must always be put in position 3 to 8 in the basic subrack
• At least one Communication Interface module CI626, CI627, CI630, or CI631 in position
2 is required within any Advant Controller 160 configuration—even if no Advant
Fieldbus 100 communication is required.
• The Communication Interface module for the main Advant Fieldbus 100 must be put in
position 2 (non redundant interface), or in position 1 and 2 (redundant interface) of the
same subrack. Usable Communication Interfaces are CI630 or CI631 for non redundant or

Figure 4-3. Advant Controller 160 with 2x PM, 2x CI, and 2x SA610
For the typical Advant Controller 160 applications the following Basic Unit controller configu-
rations are essential:
• Basic Unit with one Processor Module PM640 for non redundant processing.
• Basic Unit with one Processor Module PM644 for non redundant processing with on-
board PROFIBUS-DP (master class 1) interface and on-board rotational speed signal input
(e.g. for turbine control).
• Basic Unit with one Processor Module PM645 (type B) for dual or triple redundant pro-
cessing with on-board redundancy voter and on-board rotational speed signal input (e.g.
for turbine control).
– For dual redundancy an additional Processor Module PM645B within the same sta-
tion or in another station is necessary.
– For triple redundancy two additional Processor Modules PM645B within different
stations are necessary.
• Basic Unit with one Processor Module PM646 for dual or triple redundant processing
with on-board redundancy voter.
– For dual redundancy an additional Processor Module PM646 within the same station
or in another station is necessary.
– For triple redundancy two additional Processor Modules PM646 within different sta-
tions are necessary.
• Basic Unit with one Processor Module PM665 for dual or triple redundant processing
with on-board redundancy voter and on-board rotational speed signal input (e.g. for tur-
bine control).
– For dual redundancy an additional Processor Module PM665 within the same station
or in another station is necessary.
– For triple redundancy two additional Processor Modules PM665 within different sta-
tions are necessary.
Unused supervised analog inputs of the Advant Controller 160 must be terminated with
external resistors in order to avoid respective error detection and signalling by the Proces-
sor Modules.
• Output set as predetermined
In case of a severe controller error the outputs can be set to predetermined values. This
output set as predetermined guarantees integrity of the process in case of controller fail-
ures.
Output set as predetermined can be configured with use of the relay outputs of the Proces-
sor Modules which are switched over in case of a severe error. Both an open and a closed
contact are provided per Processor Module. E.g. the relay outputs can be used to switch off
the external voltage for digital outputs if the Processor Module which controls theses out-
puts fails.
4.3.2.3 Communication
For communication with other Advant Controllers, Operator Stations, and Engineering Stations,
Advant Controller 160 can be connected to Advant Fieldbus 100 using the Communication
Interface module CI626, CI627, CI630, or CI631. Two Communication Interfaces of type
CI630 or CI631 can be used for redundancy. For communication with subordinate Advant Con-
trollers or S800 I/O two (redundant) communication interfaces CI630 or CI631 ore via one (non
redundant) communication interface CI626, CI627, CI630, or CI631 can be used.

Figure 4-5. Dual Parallel Processor Module within one Advant Controller 160
The Processor Modules PM645C or PM646 can be used for parallel processing with external
voting if the Processor Modules are allocated within separate stations:
• Dual parallel station
Two Processor Modules within separate stations each with its own set of I/O modules, sen-
sor signal exchange via high speed serial link (configuration not shown, similar to triple
parallel station)
• Triple parallel station
Three Processor Modules within separate stations each with its own set of I/O modules,
sensor signal exchange via high speed serial link (Figure 4-6)
Dependent on the specific configuration additional HW modules and cables for parallel pro-
cessing are needed:
• The parallel Processor Modules within different stations must be connected with one
another via its high speed serial link interfaces. Therefore one connection cable set TK661
is to be used per connection.
• For configurations with parallel Processor Modules the output signals to be provided via
two respectively three separate output modules must be voted externally. Therefore spe-
cific voter devices must be used.
For Turbine Protection of ABB Turbines, three solenoid valves with electro hydraulic
2oo3 voting is the standard solution.

1. Advant Controller 450 can only be used as time master on Advant Fieldbus 100.
Controller 160 (with Processor Module PM645, PM646, PM665 via I/O port) and for
Advant Controller 450. The minute pulse must be provided by a central clock, for example
as output of a radio clock.
• External time signal using a DCF77 clock connected to the Com B serial line connector of
the Processor Modules of Advant Controller 160.
• In case of missing synchronization the internal clocks of the controllers and stations pro-
vide the actual time with reduced accuracy.
Table 4-7 gives an overview on the controllers usable as time master for synchronization via
Advant Fieldbus 100 with its used methods and needed system components for system time
input and synchronization.
Configurations
Two typical configurations as normally used for control systems are:
• Autonomous control system with Advant Controller 160 and Operator Station AdvaSoft
2.0 for Windows NT.
Control system with several Advant Controller 160 and superordinate Advant Controller 450
and Operator Stations Advant Station 500OS.
In case of single Processor Modules or station redundancy, the minute pulse is connected only to
one Processor Module in one controller, which is the time master.
The time master sends time and date cyclically once a second as broadcast message. All other
controllers receive these messages and set its internal clocks. Between two consecutive minute
pulses the time master’s internal clock runs independently ever providing the actual time.

Advant Controller 160 can be delivered as separate subracks for mounting in any suitable cabi-
net, but it can also be delivered in standard RM5xx cabinets, please refer to Chapter 8.
Full information for mounting Advant Controller 160 in cabinets is given in the cabinets chapter
of the Product Guide for Advant OCS with Master Software, Overview, or for details in the
Advant Controller 160 User’s Guide.
6.2 Communication
Data Set elements hold references to DAT elements. Up to eight DAT elements can be con-
nected to one Data Set.
A DAT element can hold one variable representing:
• 32 Booleans (32 bits) or 1 real number (32 bits) or
• 1 long integer number (32 bits) or 1 short integer number (16 bits).
The Data Set communication service cyclically transfers information from the DAT elements
specified in the sending controller to the DAT elements specified in the receiving controller. The
cycle time for each Data Set can be selected from the range 2 ms to 4 s.
The Data Set communication service is based on the broadcast principle, allowing any station to
receive any Data Set sent on the bus. The advantage of broadcasting is that information only
needs to be transmitted once regardless of the number of receiving stations. This principle is
highly efficient when the same information is required in two or more stations, especially in
time-critical applications.
The Data Set communication uses resources on Advant Fieldbus 100, in the Communication
Interface modules and also in the Processor Module. The system data shown in Table 6-2 and
Table 6-3 are valid both for the main control Advant Fieldbus 100 and the second (subordinate)
control Advant Fieldbus 100.
Advant Fieldbus 100 runs at 1.5 Mbits/s. The transfer time for one Data Set is shown in the fol-
lowing table.
Table 6-3. Data Set Transfer Times for Advant Fieldbus 100
To estimate the bus load for a given application, the following formula should be used.
Bus load in percent = ((N × Ttr) / Tc) × 100%, where:
N = the number of Data Sets (of the same size and Tc)
Ttr = the transfer time in ms (from the above table)
Tc = desired cycle time in ms (2, 4, 8, 16, …, 4096)
The resulting load must not exceed 75%, the remaining capacity must be reserved for back-
ground communication (e.g., remote programming).
Note that only the sending Data Sets are to be included in the calculation.
The number of MVI data blocks that can be exchanged via the serial interface depends on the
transmission speed and the specified cycle time. For performance estimation—including result-
ing CPU load—the figures for Advant Controller 110 within Advant OCS Product Guide as
worst case figures can be used.
The maximum distances that can be covered with PROFIBUS-DP depend on the used transmis-
sion speed:
160), up to 10 nodes on the Advant Fieldbus 100 network can be assigned to receive this event
message.
The relative time errors between events detected in different Advant Controllers 160 within the
same Advant Fieldbus 100 is < 10 ms. Relative time error within one controller is ≤ 1 ms. For
more information about event transfer and detection, please refer to Table 6-7.

redundant processing. Instead GRC and P_STEP can be used. Different cycle-times may be
assigned to the execution modules so that the AMPL program can include both fast and slow
control functions. Cycle times can be chosen from the range 2 ms to 20 s in steps of 2 ms. For
applications with redundant Processor Modules cycle times smaller than 10 ms are not applica-
ble.
For triple redundant configuration maximum cycle time is 1 second.
Control tasks with shorter cycle times always have a higher priority than those with longer cycle
times. The execution order of modules with equal cycle times can be selected explicitly. Activa-
tion once at start can be chosen by the CONTRM’s call parameter C2.

General
Advant Controller 160 is designed for a demanding industrial environment. Alternative cabinets
is available for different degrees of protective rating (IP21, IP41, IP54). Interference from elec-
trical sources is suppressed by a suitable solid design and particular installation rules. The build-
ing where the system is to be stored or installed should provide an environment such that
established environmental conditions are not normally exceeded.
A hardened enclosure protects the printed circuit boards from mechanical and electrostatic dam-
age and from electromagnetic interference. The equipment complies with the EC directives 89/
336/EEC on electromagnetic compatibility, 73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC on low-voltage appara-
tus. Limit values are given to: Corrosive gases, Temperature, Vibration, Moisture, Electro-Mag-
netic Compatibility, etc.
For further information about the environmental immunity, please refer to the Environmental
Immunities chapter in the Advant OCS with Master Software, Overview Product Guide.
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.
To avoid overheating, when ambient temperatures are high, take into consideration the heat dis-
sipated in the cabinet. This is particularly important with sealed cabinets (IP54) with consider-
able number of circuit boards and ambient temperatures at levels approaching 40°C. It might be
necessary to mount heat exchangers on the cabinet to bring down the temperature to levels
below limits given in the environmental data sheet.
The different hardware modules in the controller and the I/O system have different outputs of
heat. Accurate calculation of the heat produced by the system requires knowledge of the mod-
ules and the work cycle.
Maximum permitted temperature above the subracks in the cabinet is 55°C.
NOTE
There is normally no requirements for fans in an Advant Controller 160.
