GENERAL

This document describes about specications of Expanded Test Functions and FCS/HIS Simulation Packages that run on human interface stations (HIS).

FUNCTION SPECIFICATIONS

This package is used together with the virtual test functions of the LHS5420 test function package, and establishes intercommunications through Ethernet network among several PCs which can be used for interconnecting FCS simulator, operation and monitoring functions, and engineering functions. SCS simulator can also be used when the ProSafe-RS safety instrumented system is integrated with CENTUM VP (*1). When Exatif DCS Interface for Training Simulator (CENTUM VP Version) is used, a training simulator system can be congured by connecting a dynamic simulator and the CENTUM VP system (*2). As for a PC to launch FCS simulator from its engineering function, the expanded test functions and the test function package are required. When a simulator system contains several PCs is congured, there must be at least one expanded test functions placed on a PC. The followings are examples of the systems using the expanded test functions as well as the software packages required per each PC.
*1: *2: Refer to general specications for safety control functions package (GS 32Q03B10-31E and GS 32Q03B20-31E ) for the test using SCS simulator. Exatif is a Omega Simulation Co., Ltd.s product. For details of its functions, refer to the General Specication (GS) issued by Omega Simulation Co., Ltd.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES

Standard System Conguration
Several simulation functions can be performed in a simulator system with expanded test functions; however, it is necessary to consider CPU loading on each PC and communication loading among PCs when conguring the system. In case of HIS simulator, some of the simulation windows may occupy the CPU for a long time and it may prevent other processes from running. It is necessary to congure the simulation system considering the CPU loading and communication loading for long and stable operations of the simulator system. Do not use the HIS simulator and the FCS simulator on the same PC. Use a Windows Server OS for a PC to store the project database when testing the simulation system with more than three PCs. A standard simulator system conguration with considerations to the CPU loading and communication loading are as shown below.

In this conguration, in order to prevent operational delay in responses due to the increased PCs loading, HIS simulator or FCS simulator does not run on a PC where the project database is stored (e.g. PC1 in the above gure). Instead, the HIS simulators run on PC2 and PC3, and the FCS simulators run on PC4 and PC5. The table below shows the software package required for each PC. In this system conguration, the FCS simulator is remotely launched from the PC1s engineering functions. Thus, standard builder function, test function package, and expanded test functions must be placed in the PC1.

Example of a Large-scale System Conguration

When the expanded test functions are applied for conguring a large-scale simulator system, PCs for HIS simulator and FCS simulator need to be segregated. In the gure shown below, HIS simulators run on PC2 and PC3 and FCS simulators run on from PC4 to PC9. The FCS simulator can be remotely launched using the engineering functions in PC1 and PC2; and HIS simulator does not run on the PC1 in this example.

There are standard builder function, test function package, and expanded test functions placed on PC1 and PC2, and the FCS simulator can be remotely launched using the engineering functions of these PCs. As described in APPLICATION CAPACITIES, the package has the following restrictions: When the total number of FCS/SCS simulators exceeds the maximum number of simulators that can be launched by a single engineering PC, two or more engineering PCs are required to launch FCS/SCS simulators as shown in the above example of a large-scale system configuration. Up to eight FCS/SCS simulators can run on a single PC.
