艾默生推行升級(jí)的CPUs提供從Bristol® Network3000 到ControlWave® 遙控自動(dòng)化系統(tǒng)的轉(zhuǎn)移路徑
當(dāng)現(xiàn)存的硬件需要維護(hù)和設(shè)計(jì)投資時(shí),升級(jí)的CPUs可為用戶提供Network 3000的優(yōu)勢(shì)技術(shù)以減少成本投入。
康涅狄格州WATERTOWN市2007年4月12號(hào)新聞,艾默生過程管理公司宣布升級(jí)的CPUs可提供從Bristol® Network 3000 遠(yuǎn)程終端設(shè)備到ControlWave® 遙控自動(dòng)化系統(tǒng)的轉(zhuǎn)移路徑。用升級(jí)的CW_35和CW_31CPUs代替Network 3000 CPUs是一個(gè)最節(jié)省成本的轉(zhuǎn)移選擇。
于1990年推行的Bristol Network 3000表現(xiàn)有3335 RTU和3331 I/O擴(kuò)展架特性,現(xiàn)在仍保持其原有的特性也是許多忠實(shí)顧客作為對(duì)RTU的選擇。然而隨著最新的PLC/RTU混合產(chǎn)品Bristol ControlWave的發(fā)展和流行,消費(fèi)者已在通過便宜轉(zhuǎn)移路徑實(shí)現(xiàn)效益方面表現(xiàn)出了極大的興趣,同時(shí)在應(yīng)用SCADA時(shí),新ControlWave技術(shù)不用取代整個(gè)系統(tǒng)。
新CW_35 和 CW_31CPU產(chǎn)品準(zhǔn)備為Bristol ControlWave架構(gòu)提供經(jīng)濟(jì)有效的升級(jí)路徑,允許現(xiàn)存Network 3000用戶改進(jìn)I/O、配線、通信架構(gòu)和應(yīng)用程序。新的CPUs是直接置換在3335 RTU和3331 I/O架中使用的CPUs??蛻艨梢院苋菀椎匾苿?dòng)現(xiàn)有的CPU和通信卡,還可以用新ControlWave架構(gòu)卡取代它們。新CPUs支持所有一般使用中的相似元件、離散的和計(jì)數(shù)器I/O卡、以及普遍安裝在遠(yuǎn)程終端設(shè)備中的調(diào)制解調(diào)器和無(wú)線電廣播設(shè)備。通信兼容性仍然使用相同的BSAP和Modbus協(xié)議。
為保護(hù)許多由Bristol’s ACCOL語(yǔ)言開發(fā)的業(yè)主程序裝機(jī)量,ACCOL實(shí)用翻譯器允許應(yīng)用程序使用文本構(gòu)成的ControlWave 設(shè)計(jì)師IEC 1131標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。對(duì)于許多應(yīng)用軟件來(lái)說,ACCOL翻譯器在重寫功能能夠達(dá)到80%軟換率。
ControlWave架構(gòu)能提供在現(xiàn)存3335/3331s之上的許多優(yōu)勢(shì),包括隨工業(yè)發(fā)展的計(jì)算機(jī)兼容性,如IEC 61131-3編程、以太網(wǎng)、IP和FTP通信,支持56比特用戶名加密/密碼安全簽定和多用戶使用級(jí)。它還能提供更快的執(zhí)行速度,低功率損耗和更大更靈活的記憶模塊。
艾默生Bristol ControlWave設(shè)計(jì)師的編軟件是與IEC 61131-3PLC國(guó)際標(biāo)準(zhǔn)編程軟件相一致的。設(shè)計(jì)師能夠編輯含有5種IEC 61131-3編程語(yǔ)言的軟件,在功能強(qiáng)大的ACCOL III過程控制功能板塊圖書館支持下,允許使用單一邏輯控制器、過程控制功能、測(cè)量、數(shù)據(jù)保存和計(jì)算功能。工程師們還可以開發(fā)他們自己的可再利用的功能板塊,減少工程時(shí)間和成本。在遠(yuǎn)程終端設(shè)備中進(jìn)一步加強(qiáng)數(shù)據(jù)戳警告和歷史記錄功能,能提供最大化的數(shù)據(jù)完整性。在通信失敗后這個(gè)數(shù)據(jù)將被自動(dòng)重新獲得。

Emerson introduces upgrade CPUs to provide migration path from Bristol® Network 3000 RTUs to ControlWave® remote automation system
Upgrade CPUs allow Network 3000 customers to take advantage of future technology while maintaining their existing hardware and engineering investment
WATERTOWN, CONN. (April 12, 2007) – Emerson Process Management announces upgrade CPUs that provide a migration path from the installed base of Bristol® Network 3000 RTUs to the company’s Bristol ControlWave® remote automation system. The cost effective migration is made by replacing installed Network 3000 CPUs with the new upgrade CW_35 and CW_31CPUs.
Introduced in 1990, Bristol Network 3000 featured the 3335 RTU and 3331 I/O expansion rack that have retained their status as the RTU of choice by many loyal customers. However, with the growing popularity of the Bristol ControlWave, the latest generation hybrid PLC/RTU products, customers have expressed interest in an inexpensive migration path to allow them to realize all of the benefits of the new ControlWave technology without replacing their entire system for SCADA applications.
The new CW_35 and CW_31CPU products are intended to offer a cost-effective upgrade path to the Bristol ControlWave architecture, allowing existing Network 3000 customers to maintain their investment in I/O, wiring, communication infrastructure and application program development. The new CPUs are direct replacements for the CPUs in the 3335 RTU and 3331 I/O rack. Customers can easily remove the existing CPU and communication cards and replace them with the new ControlWave architecture cards. The new CPUs support all commonly used analog, discrete and counter I/O cards, as well as modems and radios currently installed in the RTUs. Communication compatibility is maintained through the same use of BSAP and Modbus protocols.
In order to preserve most of the installed base owners’ program development done with Bristol’s ACCOL language, the ACCOL Translator utility will allow application program conversion to ControlWave Designer IEC 1131 Structured Text. For most applications, the ACCOL Translator will reduce the conversion effort by up to 80% vs. rewriting the program.
The ControlWave architecture offers several advantages over existing 3335/3331s including increased compatibility with industry standards such as IEC 61131-3 programming, Ethernet, IP and FTP communication, support for 56 bit encrypted User Name/Password security sign-on and multiple user access levels. It also offers much greater execution speed, lower power consumption and a larger and more flexible memory model.
Emerson’s Bristol ControlWave Designer programming software is compliant with the IEC 61131-3 international standard for PLC programming. Designer supports all five IEC 61131-3 programming languages and is enhanced with a powerful library of ACCOL III process control function blocks allowing the use of a single controller for logic, process control functions, measurement, calculations and data storage. Engineers can also develop their own reusable function blocks, further reducing engineering time and cost. These capabilities are further enhanced with time stamped alarming and historical archive storage within the RTU to provide maximum data integrity. This data is automatically recovered following a communication failure. [/COLOR]
