Group Stopping
The group sequence start / stop module provides the following features:
The module handles sequential and cyclic activation and de-activation of devices. Typically
used to control silo aeration valves when silos containing fine bulk materials are discharged.
The module provides:
· Program selector with 3 programs selectable from faceplate or application
· 1 Safety interlock, 1 Chain Auto interlock, 2 start interlocks, 1 Previous drive
· Consumer objects have 4 different Point of Control (POC): SEQ, CEN, LOC, and
Out Of Service.
· 2 External Alarm inputs and 2 External Warning inputs
· Sequence cycle time supervision, Alarming when exceeding maximum start-up /
shut-down time
· Continuous execution or execution during a defined number of cycles
· Next step control from faceplate or application
· Modularity on Group control : Settings of the Consumer POC when Group starts
(immediate, only on Step, never)
· 2 stepping modes (ByTime, ByTime and condition)
· 2 restart modes (step 1, last step)
· Automatic step over if all drives of a step are out of service or not selected
· Ready for start summary of all drives included in the selected program.
PREBIN has no faceplate. Clicking on the push button symbol toggles the state. In case
stand-by preselection is configured, an additional button is provided for each pre-selection to
define the current stand-by selection.
The pre-selection module allows the operator to select or de-select a single device or a set
of devices within a group. By e.g. pressing “Silo1” all objects belonging to the route to silo 1
are pre-selected. This does however, not cause a start-up of equipment, it is just a selection.
When initiating a group sequence start, selected devices will start up in a sequential order;
de-selected devices will shut down in a sequential order (provided they were in a running
state).
In case stand-by pre-selection is active, a pre-selected and running drive will initiate a
switchover (group start) when tripping, automatically starting up the stand-by pre-selected
drives.
STW has no stand-alone graphic element and no faceplate. It is tightly integrated with motor
and group control. See Group control graphic element.
The start warning module is integrated with the consumer objects (e.g. MOT1, MOT2,
MOTP, etc.). When a start command for a motor is initiated, the start warning module first
triggers the buzzers and/or flashlights before it returns the actual start release for the motor.
Different buzzers and flashlights can be assigned to appropriate start warning modules,
which in turn are assigned to appropriate consumers.

Serially connected, usually intelligent devices have the ability of providing much more
information of their functional status. The faceplate with its limited space is not seen as a
suitable media to present all the additional information, most of which is not process operation
related.
Therefore configurable link buttons have been provided in the Faceplate “Extebded Info” Area to
allow direct access to additional aspects of the serial object from the Operator Station.

1.1.19 ENERGY MANAGEMENT
The Energy Management System consists of three major modules communicating
together:
· Power Demand Supervision
· Load Shedding Control (optional automatic switching-off)
· Load (Definition of a set of Circuit Breakers)
For this example, the ForeCast Energy At Interval End shows nicely that is based on the
ActualEnergyInInterval and the TotalPower. It calculates how much Energy will be used at the end of the
Metering Interval if the actual Power is steady till then.
This is the fastest method as shown on the trends : the light blue curves is the first to cross the Warning
Level !
All of these Informations are available to the operator through standard interfaces from the BMI Library:
· Faceplate (see extended Faceplate §3.3.3.2)
· Multi-Trends (see extended Faceplate §3.3.3.2)
· Graphical Elements (see §3.3.1)
The Powerdemandsupervision Control Module Type enables input of tariff structure and
their given conditions as defined by the Energy supplier

Through the PCC Bus it is possible to see the DIS, DIC, AIS and AIC limit that is causing
some fault to the consumer object on the Group and Motor Faceplates. The tag name of
the alarming input signal is shown on the faceplate of the consumer. In the same way you
will find the link from DIS, DIC, AIS and AIC faceplate to the consumer tag name.
Alarms can be acknowledged at any Faceplate, i.e. the acknowledgement given on the
Group level will be propagated through the Motor down to the Signal level.

All POC are selectable from the operator workplace. The point of control defines from where the
object will be controlled. In order to control an object the corresponding POC must be selected
before giving any command to the object. For safety reason, stopping an object or closing a gate
is always possible, no matter which control mode has been chosen.
Sequence: The object is controlled by a superior application program e.g. from a drive group
sequence. Sequence mode can be set from the operator station or by the application program.
Central: The object is controlled by the operator station by means of the start/stop or open/close
push buttons on the faceplate. Start/stop or open/close from a superior application program is
also possible in this mode. The Central mode can be set from the operator workplace only.
Man (default):
An object is controlled by a rising edge start / stop command, either released from the
operator station or from the superior application program.
Auto:
An object is controlled by an input IA (IA =1 starts the motor, IA=0 stops the motor). Typical use
of the auto mode is on/off control by thermostats, level switches, etc.
In Central Auto and Sequence Auto mode the operator cannot control the object
any more from the operator station. Stopping a motor and closing a gate is always
possible.
Local:
The object is controlled from the field via the pushbuttons on the local control box (LCB). To
operate a drive locally, the drives need the local release from the CCR operator. The point of
control has to be changed in the CCR and can be set for a complete drive group or for every
object individually.
The interlocks are de-activated in this mode except the safety interlock IC (Rope Switches,
Bearing/Winding Temp., Vibrations etc.). Further more the two feed back signals (FB1 and FB2 –
for example speedswitch) are also de-activated while pressing and holding the start/open push
button. Typically, the Local mode is for maintenance purposes.
Note: Alarms are disabled when an object is in Local mode (no alarm acknowledgment on the
operator station necessary when object is operated from the field).
Out of Service: The object is not in service and cannot be started from any location. It also means
that the object will be skipped when running a superior group sequence. Out of Service mode can
be set and re-set from the operator station only with special user rights.
The Figure below shows the Control Modes and their graphical presentation for the Group and
Consumer Objects. Please note that for better operator guidance the default POC (Central for
Group and Sequence for Drives) is not indicated by a character on the process display.

A group may be started, if all pre-selected equipment assigned to the group is ready for start, the
pre-selection is set correctly and no group start interlock is active. Initial starting is possible from
status “Off / Ready for Start”. A group restart can be preformed from the status: “Stopping”,
“Hold” or “Running”.
Before starting the group, the pre-selections such as selecting alternative routing, standby units,
set points, etc., may be adjusted. The new settings are indicated in the process display and the
faceplate.
Pressing the “start” button in the faceplate the following steps are executed:
1. An audible start-up warning is activated for all related equipment, optional the start warning
can be configured to be executed prior the start of individual equipment. The group indicates
“Starting / PreWarning”
2. After a certain adjustable time, the start-up warning stops and the equipment starts to run,
respectively moves into the position according to the programmed sequence and used pre-
selections. The group indicates “Starting” and the step number and tag name of the actually
started equipment can be monitored on the faceplate.
3. A successful start-up is indicated by the group status indication changing to “Running”. In
case any important equipment fails during the start-up, the group indicates “Hold” resp.
“Drive(s) not Ready for Start”.
Additionally a group can be started by an unconditional start, even with equipment not ready for
start. That means that the group will start until the start step of the equipment which is not ready
for start. This function is not active in case of a group start interlock.
Stopping a group
A group may be stopped in case there is no stop interlock active (e.g. group can’t be stopped
because another group is still not off). Stopping is possible from any status, even the group
“Starting” status.
Pressing the “stop” button changes the indication to stop and all equipment will be sequentially
stopped or moved to the defined “off” position, leaving the equipment in a suitable condition for
the next start-up – transport systems emptied of material, dampers turned to safety position.
After a successful stop the group indicates “Off / Ready for Start”.
A stop may be performed instantly disregarding the programmed appropriate stop order by
pressing the “quick stop” button in the faceplate. The “instant stop” stops all equipment in the
group simultaneously. For actuators and Loop controllers the specific action to be executed at a
quick stop can be adjusted individually. The instant stop can be activated at any time (even if a
stop interlock is active). In such a case the other drives and/or groups are stopped according to
the process interlocks.

If an alarm condition arises during the group start sequence (e.g. fault or process interlock of
equipment starting or already running) the start-up will be interrupted automatically and the group
indicates, “Hold / Drive(s) not Ready”. The object name of the equipment causing the fault is
presented in the group faceplate and the operator can directly link to the equipment faceplate to
get more detailed information.
“Hold” means that only a part of the group is in operation (not completely started or stopped). At
this state by pressing the “stop” button, the rest of the group is stopped in accordance with the
stop sequence or if the fault can be removed, the start sequence may be reactivated by selecting
the group and pressing the “start” button again.
A group may be started, if all pre-selected equipment assigned to the group is ready for start, the
pre-selection is set correctly and no group start interlock is active. Initial starting is possible from
status “Off / Ready for Start”. A group restart can be preformed from the status: “Stopping”,
“Hold” or “Running”. Additionally a group can be started by an unconditional start, even with
equipment not ready for start, meaning the group will start until the start step of the equipment
which is not ready for start.
Before starting the group, the pre-selections such as selecting alternative routing, standby units,
set points, etc., may be adjusted. The new settings are indicated in the process display and the
faceplate.
Manual Hold
The operator may manually interrupt the starting or stopping or quick stop procedure of a group at
any time by pressing the “hold” button on the faceplate. In this case the group will indicate hold
until the starting or stopping process is continued.
Pre-selections
The pre-selection function allows motors to be included in the start-up process of a group. By
setting and resetting the pre-selections, the operator may define which objects should be
activated or deactivated by the next start command. Even a flying change of the pre-selection
(e.g. automatic change of silo filling) may be programmed. This is a fully automatic change of the
pre-selection during the group running status.
By clicking with the left mouse button on the pre-selection button, the pre-selection will be
set/reset. The status of the pre-selection is shown on the button. At the group start any changes
of the pre-selections will be taken into account and the new configuration of the pre-selections is
activated.
Blue flashing
Red frame
The operator is allowed to change the pre-selections when a group has following status:
¨ Group is stopped completely
¨ Group is running (flying change over)
¨ Group is in HOLD mode
¨ Pre-selection change is not interlocked by the process (dimmed indication)
If only one pre-selection setting is allowed to be active at the time, the other pre-selections are
deactivated automatically (radio button function). If more pre-selection settings are possible at the
same time, the operator can manually chose the configuration.
Missing – and wrong pre-selection combinations prevent a group start. There is then an indication
on the group faceplate.
