ABB Advant Fieldbus 100 AF100 Control system

Advant Fieldbus 100 (AF 100) is a high performance fieldbus, which is used for:

•Communication between Advant Controllers

•Communication between Advant Controllers and S800 I/O Stations, AC 800M controllers, AC 100 OPC Server, and the equipments developed and sold by other ABB companies.

In an AF 100 bus, it is possible to reach up to 80 stations within a total physical

distance of up to 13300 meters (43300 feet).

Advant Fieldbus supports three transmission media:

•Twisted pair (Twp)

•Coaxial (RG59 and RG11)

•Optical media.

An AF 100 bus can be built up with all the three media, where a part of one kind of

media is a specific segment.

The following rules apply to the segments:

•To each twisted pair segment, 32 stations can be connected, and the maximum segment length is 750 meters (2500 feet)

•The coaxial segment can be:

–300 meters (1000 feet) with cable RG59 or

–700 meters (2300 feet) with cable RG11.

•The optical media is only used in point-to-point communication, and it allows the total length of a bus segment to be up to 1700 meters (5500 feet).

•If back-to-back coupled optical segments are used, it is possible to reach up to a physical length of 13300 meters (43300 feet).

An Advant Fieldbus 100 may be installed with one or two physical bus lines (single

or redundant media). Two bus lines are chosen when increased availability is

required. The redundant bus line does not enhance the bus bandwidth when both the

bus cables are operating.

Advant Fieldbus 100 Redundancy Concept

The Advant Fieldbus 100 redundancy concept contains:

•Media redundancy

•Communication interface redundancy

•S800 I/O Field Communication Interface redundancy. When redundant media is used, redundancy must be maintained through the whole

bus (this comprises of the bus lines as well as connections of the stations to the bus).

Communication Interface Redundancy

Communication interface redundancy is achieved by using a pair of CI522s, CI630s,

CI631s, CI869s or CI820s, connected to a media redundant bus. Communication

interface redundancy is available for Advant Controller 400 Series, Advant

Controller 160, AC 800M controller, and S800 I/O stations.

Two communication interfaces (CIs) can operate as a pair, where one is Primary and

the other is Backup in the controller configuration.

Functions of Primary CI

In a redundant configuration, the address of the primary CI is the configured station

address on the bus.

The primary CI:

•Sends all output CDPs.

•Receives all input CDPs.

•Sends the time synchronization message if the station is configured as time synchronization master.

•Handles the normal Service Data communication for the station.

•Supervises that the backup can send on the bus. This is done at a low frequency using the service data protocol.

•Must be configured as bus master if the module is CI522/CI630 or CI631, so that the bus master responsibilities are performed.

Functions of Backup CI

In a redundant configuration, the address of the backup CI on the bus is the

configured station address + 80.

The backup CI:

•Supervises that the primary CI sends its output CDPs properly.

•Sends signal to the controller if the primary CI does not send its output CDPs.

•Receives all input CDPs.

•Responds to Service Data communication with the Primary.

•Must be configured as bus master if the module is CI522, CI630 or CI631. If the station number is less than or equal to 47, the backup module performs the bus master responsibilities, otherwise it does not.

Communication Interface Redundancy in Advant Controller 400 Series

To connect the CI522 redundant communication interfaces to a twisted pair bus, two

TC516 modems (or four TC512 modems) are used..

To connect the CI522 redundant communication interfaces to a coaxial cable bus,

four TC625 modems are required.

The TC516 modem has two connections, one for each redundant CI522 and a

connection to one twisted pair bus cable. TC516 can be used for two redundant

CI522s as well as for one single CI520V1/CI522/CI526V1.

AC An abbreviation of Advant Controller (used in figures and tables). AF 100 An abbreviation of Advant Fieldbus 100 (used in figures and tables). Advant Controller Advant Controller refers to Advant Controller 70, Advant Controller 110/160 and Advant Controller 400 Series (Advant Controller 410, Advant Controller 450, and Advant Controller 460). 800xA for AC 100 800xA for AC 100 is a connectivity package integrating Advant Controller 100 Series controllers via Advant Fieldbus 100 to the 800xA System. AC 100 OPC Server AC 100 OPC Server provides OPC client applications access to process objects in Advant Controller 100 Series. AF 100 Station AF 100 Station is the name of the “stations” on Advant Fieldbus 100. An AF 100 Station is each item connected to the Advant Fieldbus 100, for example, Advant Controller 70, Advant Controller 110/160, Advant Controller 400 Series, S800 I/O Station, or AC 100 OPC Server.

The TC516 modem has two connections, one for each redundant CI522 and a connection to one twisted pair bus cable. TC516 can be used for two redundant CI522s as well as for one single CI520V1/CI522/CI526V1

Communication Interface Redundancy in Advant Controller 160 For configurations with one Advant Fieldbus 100, the communication interface CI630/CI631 must be placed at position 2 (non redundant interface) or in position 1 and 2 (redundant interface) in the Basic Station. A second and third Advant Fieldbus 100 can be used with AC 160. These can use single or redundant communication interfaces. The communication interfaces can be placed at position 9 and 10, or 11 and 12, and so on

Communication Interface Redundancy in AC 800M The communication interface redundancy in AC 800M is achieved by using two CI869 modules that are connected to the same AC 800M controller. One of the CI869 modules is configured as primary, while the other is configured as backup.

Failover time for CI869 and Double DSP timeout The failover time is the time that the backup CI869 takes to function as primary without error, if the primary CI869 does not work properly. The other stations on the AF 100 bus do not influence the failover of the CI869 modules. The backup CI869 is supervising that the primary CI869 is sending its CDPs with the expected cycle time. If the backup CI869 detects that the Primary CI869 does not send its CDPs as it should, it triggers the AC 800M controller to perform a failover of CI869. The ‘Double DSP timeout’ parameter must be enabled for an AF 100 station that is receiving DSP data from another AF 100 station that uses redundant communication interfaces. For details, refer to the Online Help of Control Builder. Cable Redundancy and Partner Supervision In a redundant configuration, the primary and the backup CI869 modules supervise that the communication happens between them. The backup CI869 supervises that the primary CI869 sends its CDPs as it should. For this, it is required that both the cables that are connected to the backup CI869 have bus traffic. If any of the cables connected to the backup CI869 are without bus traffic for 10 ms or more, the Partner Supervision is disabled, and: • If the parameter "Cable" on the CI869 hardware editor is set to Redundant, the Partner Supervision not active unit status bit is set on the backup CI869 hardware unit. • If the parameter “Cable” is not set to Redundant, the status bit is not set. However, a warning stating that the Partner Supervision requires redundant lines is displayed during the download of this redundant CI869 configuration to the controller.
