Batch Connectivity to M0D 300
When using the MOD-300 Control Systems as part of the System 800xA Batch
Management, the primary operation displays are accessed from the Batch Overview,
Batch History Overview, and Equipment Overview icons. The standard TCL
displays are available for use as secondary displays for the normal control of the
Batch Process. Reference
System 800xA Batch Management Operation
(3BUA00145*) for details.
Use the Batch Displays during normal operation to manage the Batch process. The
Batch software handles all TCL state/status combinations. For example, using the
TCL displays to change state from Active to Paused during the S88 RUN State will
cause the Batch Phase to go to the S88 Abort State with an Error, in this case 'TCL
Paused by User'. Let the Batch Manager software manage the State/Status of the
Sequence being used as a MOD_PHASE.
When there is not a valid S88 State change that can be used for recovery, then the
TCL displays can be used to recover the process.
Additional notes:
• Within batch, the MOD Phase Sequence is a TCL Sequence adapted to provide
ISA S88 State Functionality. The MOD Phase Sequence is identified as a
MOD_PHASE object in the Process Portal Control Structure.
• When loading sequences from the Unit Detail Display, note that loading of the
MOD_PHASE TCL Sequences is handled automatically.
• Direct access of a sequence detail is possible from the MOD_SEQUENCE
object or the MOD_PHASE object.
• State, Mode, and Status is managed automatically as per the ISA S88 State
model. The State, Mode, and Status can be modified within the TCL as needed
to recover from an Abnormal Condition. The Batch PFC Status display's Error
field will indicate when an abnormal condition requires manual intervention
via the TCL displays.
