Functional Description
DS200TCQBF1BAE is a Software EPROM developed by GE. It is part of the Mark V series. Software PROM Set ensures consistency, reliability, and security in control system operation. A Software PROM Set forms the foundation of control system operation, providing the necessary software infrastructure for accurate, reliable, and efficient control. Its stable and unalterable nature ensures consistent performance and minimizes the risk of software-related failures or vulnerabilities.
Application software
- Development Process: Application software is developed using proprietary in-house software automation tools. These tools enable engineers to select and integrate proven control and protection algorithms from GE's extensive library into the application. This process ensures reliability, efficiency, and compatibility with the target system.
- Integration with I/O and Displays: The application software seamlessly integrates with Input/Output (I/O) modules, sequencing logic, and displays to form a comprehensive control system. This integration allows for efficient monitoring, processing, and control of various parameters and processes within the industrial environment.
- Fixed-Point Data Processing: Application software is capable of processing fixed-point data at a frame rate of 62.5 ms (16 Hz). This frame rate determines the elapsed time required to read control inputs, condition them, execute the application logic, and send output commands to control valves. This high-speed processing ensures real-time responsiveness and accuracy in control operations.
- Dynamic Software Updates: Changes to the application software can be made even while the turbine is running, thanks to robust password-protected mechanisms. Engineers can modify the software parameters, algorithms, or logic to adapt to changing operational requirements or optimize system performance without interrupting production processes.
- Nonvolatile Memory Storage: All application software is stored in nonvolatile EEPROM memory within the control module. This ensures that the software remains intact even in the event of power loss or system shutdown, preserving critical control functionalities and configurations.
- Execution and Representation: The application software is executed sequentially, following a ladder diagram format commonly used in industrial control systems. This format provides a visual representation of the control logic, making it easier for operators and maintenance personnel to understand and troubleshoot.
- Software Building Blocks: A library of software building blocks is available, allowing maintenance personnel to add or modify analog loops, sequencing logic, or mathematical calculations as needed. These blocks streamline the development process and enable customization without the need for extensive programming knowledge.
- Documentation and Traceability: Comprehensive documentation, including primary elementary diagrams, I/O assignments, and tuning constants, is automatically generated from the source code of the application software. This documentation provides valuable insights into the system configuration and facilitates troubleshooting and maintenance activities.
