As a result heterogeneous systems have to be maintained. The support for different protocols is essential. This paper desc

Inroduction Process controls in general started at DESY in the early 80th with the installation of the cryogenic control system for the accelerator H
6、ERA (Hadron-Elektron-Ring-Anlage). A new technology was necessary because the existing hardware was not capable to handle standard process controls signals like 4 to 20mA input and output signals and the software was not designed to run PID control loops at a stable repetition rate of 0.1 seconds.

Since the installed D/3 system1 only provided an documented serial connection on a multibus board, the decision was made to implement a DMA connection to VME and to emulate the multibus boards functionality. The necessary computing power for temperature conversions came from a

11、e possibility to expand the system on the display- and on the I/O side helped to solve the increasing control demands for HERA. The limiting factor for the size of the system is not the total number of I/O but the traffic on the communication network. This traffic is determined by the total amount o

13、with DCS Features (Cube) The fact that the D/3 system mentioned above had some hard coded limitations with respect to the Y2K problem was forcing us to look for an upgrade or a replacement of the existing system. As a result of a call for tender the company Orsi with their product Cube came in
14、to play 2. The project included a complete replacement of the installed functionality. This included the D/3 as well as the integration of the DESY field bus SEDAC and the temperature conversion in VME. The project started promising. But soon technical and organizational problems were pushing the sc
15、hedule to its limits which were determined by the HERA shutdown scheduled at that time. The final acceptance test at the vendors site showed dramatic performance problems. Two factors could be identified as the cause of these problems. The first one was related to the under estimated CPU load of the
16、 北京化工大学北方学院毕业设计(论文) 外文文献原稿和译文 3 6th grade polynomial temperature conversion running at 1 Hz. The second one was the additional CPU load caused by the complex functionality of the existing D/3 system. Here it was underestimated that each digital and analog input and output channel had its own
17、alarm limits in the D/3 system. In a SCADA like system as Cube the base functionality of a channel is to read the value and make it available to the system. Any additional functionality must be added. Last not least the load on the network for polling all the alarm limits typically for a SCADA syste
18、m was also driving the network to its limits. Finally the contract with Orsi was cancelled and an upgrade of the D/3 system was the only possible solution. It was finally carried out in march 2003. In any case it should be mentioned that the Cube approach had the advantage of a homogeneous con
19、figuration environment (for the Cube front end controllers) compared with heterogeneous environments for pure SCADA systems. SCADA (PVSS-II) The H1 experiment at the HERA accelerator decided to use PVSS-II for an upgrade of their slow control systems3. The existing systems were developed by several
20、members of the H1 collaboration and were difficult to maintain. The decision to use PVSS as a replacement was driven by the results of an extensive survey carried out at CERN by the Joint Controls Project 4. PVSS is a pure Supervisory And Data Acquisition System (SCADA). It provides a set of drivers
21、 for several field buses and generic socket libraries to implement communication over TCP/IP. The core element is the so called event manager. It collects the data (mostly by polling) from the I/O devices and provides an event service to the attached management services like: control manager, databa
22、se manager, user interface, API manager and the built in HTTP server. The PVSS scripting library allows to implement complex sequences as well as complex graphics. Compared with other SCADA systems PVSS comes with one basic feature: it provides a true object oriented API to the devices data. One major disadvantage of SCADA systems is the fact that two databases, the one for the PLC and the one for the SCADA system must be maintained. Integrated environments try to overcome this restriction. EPICS
