BPPC-based I/O Pack Migration
As part of the ongoing support for the Mark VIe and Mark VIeS control platforms, many I/O packs have migrated from a
BPPB to a BPPC processor board. This is because the components for BPPB-based processors are end of life, and BPPC
processors can offer enhanced capabilities. In most instances, the hardware form of the I/O pack that contains the newer
BPPC processor ends with an H1B (Mark VIe) or S1B (Mark VIeS).
There are several differences between BPPC-based Mark VIe I/O packs (such as PAICH1B) and Mark VIeS Safety I/O packs
(such as YAICS1B) as defined in the following table.
Differences Between BPPC-based Safety and Non-Safety
Mark VIe I/O Packs
Mark VIeS Safety Packs
Requires Minimum ControlST V04.04 and the BPPC I/O Upgrade
V05.01
Requires ControlST V6.01 or later
Safety packs are not supported in the stand-alone BPPC I/O Upgrade
Package. A site outage is required to upgrade to minimum ControlST
V6.01 or later.
Can mix BPPB and BPPC-based I/O packs on the same TMR or
Dual terminal board
All I/O packs must be the same hardware form on the same terminal
board. It is recommended to purchase adequate BPPC-based spare I/O
packs to have on hand during the migration process.
Auto-reconfiguration can be used for swapping of a BPPB P-Pack
with a BPPC P-Pack, once system is equipped (exception for
PPRO, PPRA, and PCAA)
Auto-reconfiguration is not supported with Mark VIeS Safety I/O packs
Currently, BPPB-based I/O packs continue to have firmware
updates and can be upgraded to the latest version
BPPB-based safety packs are not supported in firmware version 5.00 or
later. Firmware versions 5.00 and later are only supporting the
BPPC-based safety packs. Do NOT upgrade BPPB-based safety I/O
packs beyond their compatible firmware versions as listed in GEH-6721
Volumes II and III.
6.10.1
BPPC-based Mark VIeS Safety I/O Packs
Because the Mark VIeS is applied to safety-critical applications, there are fewer options with respect to migration from BPPB
to BPPC based I/O packs. Having fewer options makes it more straight forward to migrate, with less potential conflicts
between configurations and supported hardware. Safety I/O packs typically have a part number that ends with ‘S1B’. Refer to
the table in the section
as a single location for all available safety I/O packs.
Refer to the following guidelines with respect to migration from BPPB to BPPC based Safety Packs:
•
It is important to backup the ToolboxST system prior to upgrade.
•
Reference the above table,
Differences Between BPPC-based Safety and Non-Safety
•
Reference GEH-6721_Vol_II or GEH-6721_Vol_III (if available) for the section pertaining to the specific I/O pack being
migrated, and the section
Compatibility
for this I/O pack.
•
Reference the section
Replace Mark VIeS Safety I/O Packs with Upgraded Hardware Form
in GEH-6721_Vol_II.
•
YVIBS1B requires additional steps to be performed in the ToolboxST application. This procedure is available in
GEH-6721_Vol_II.
