CONTROLEDGE UOC
ControlEdge UOC is DCS controller available with Experion. UOC
provides control for process units through level 0 I/O devices and
provides communication data access from level 1 and level 2 FTE
networks. Like other Experion DCS controllers, ControlEdge UOC
uses the Experion Control Execution Environment (CEE) as the
control engine and is configured with Experion Control Builder.
ControlEdge UOC uses many of the ControlEdge 900 platform
components. These include the following:
n
CPM
n
EPM (Firmware version 140 or later)
n
ControlEdge 900 UIO Module
n
Redundant Controller Rack
n
I/O Controller Rack
n
Power System
n
RTP Kit
n
Barrier Terminal Blocks
n
Accessories (switches, jumpers, resistors)
Points to note specific to the use of the CPM as a UOC in Experion:
n
SD card slot on CPM is currently not utilized and is reserved for
use in future.
n
The CPM Mode switch is not utilized by UOC firmware. Honeywell
recommends that it be covered using (HW part number, if
available) after conversion of the PLC CPM into a UOC CPM.
However, the switch movement has no effect. For further
information on conversion, see UOC User’s Guide.
n
Currently, of the ControlEdge 900 I/O modules described in this
document, the UOC supports only the UIOM. Support for
additional I/O card types will be extended in future releases.
This section provides information about following:
