2 Overview
Propulsion Control System PCS-5 for marine propulsion plants is located in the engineroom. One PCS-5 Propulsion Control System is used for each propulsion line. If the shipis equipped with two symmetrical shafts (port and starboard propulsion lines), the twoPCS-5 Propulsion Control Systems are identical. If the ship is equipped with a middleengine, its PCS-5 may be configured differently to those of the port and starboard engi-nes.
Figure 4 is a schematic representation showing the integration of PCS-5 in a twin shaftpropulsion plant including Remote Control System RCS and Monitoring and ControlSystem MCS.
The scope of the Propulsion Control System PCS-5 is highlighted by the frames in thefigure.

2.4 Overview of field bus systems
2.4.1 PCS field bus
The PCS field bus has the following tasks: Transmission of process values and control commands for the superordinate
control system RCS-5. The interface to RCS-5 is a CAN/CAN gateway on com-bined systems or by direct link. This results in a logical and physical separationof the PCS-5 and RCS-5 systems. Emphasis is placed on separating logic(separating data) possible on both versions.
Transmission of measured and limit values from the PCS units to the Monito-ring and Control System MCS-5. The interface to MCS-5 is realized by a Pro-grammable Process Station PPS. Logical and physical separation of the PCS-5and MCS 5 systems is also featured here.
Transmission of data between PCS-5 units for further processing or output oftransmitted process values (e.g. signals relevant to engine control).
The PCS field bus is of redundant design and has a decentralized networkstructure.
2.4.2 RCS field bus
Reference documentation:Function and tasks of the RCS field bus are described in Propulsion plantRemote Control System RCS-5 FPP/B Part 1, document no. E 531 661.
RCS coordination field bus
The RCS coordination field bus has the following task: Transmission of process values in single control lever mode (SCL) and control
commands
Note: This bus is only used in combined systems.

3.2.1 Monitoring
The monitoring system is intended to inform the operator about the current state of theplant. Malfunctions and limit value violations which are detected result in an alarm.
Propulsion Control System PCS-5 monitors limit values defined by the manufacturer atmeasuring points on the engine and other propulsion components. The following opera-ting values are acquired at the measuring points on the engine:
Temperatures Pressures Engine speed Charger speed Injection pressure Levels
Audible and visual warnings are output in case of limit value violation depending on thetype and priority of the measured values.
Vital measured values are shown on the display of Local Operating Panel LOP 1.Combined alarms are also signalled audibly and visually here.
Safety circuit
If necessary, Propulsion Control System PCS-5 automatically takes measures to maintainoperability or protect the engine, e.g. emergency shutdowns and reduced service.
Propulsion Control System PCS-5 also detects and signals sensor failure.
The Integral Test System constantly monitors operation of the hardware and software ofPropulsion Control System PCS-5. Vital measured values and individual alarms can betransmitted to a superordinate Monitoring and Control System via the PCS-5 field bus.

An alarm occurring anywhere in the system is indicated after a maximum of 2 s.
Alarms are divided into three priorities within the system. They are grouped into two alarmlevels, namely yellow and red alarm, for display on the process visualization system.
Warningsare indicative of minor faults or represent a prewarning of an alarm (e.g. firstlimit value violated)
Alarmsare indicative of serious malfunctions leading to restricted operation or failure ofone or more components (e.g. second limit value violation).
Warnings and alarms may be caused in the target system (e.g. lube oil pressure too low)or in PCS-5 units (system error).
Alarms are: Handled dynamically (alarm is reset when the alarm has been acknowledged
and is no longer present)or
Stored (the alarm is reset when the alarm has been acknowledged, is no longerpresent and the memory is reset)

3.2.3 Regulation
3.2.3.1 Speed/injection governing
The engine speed governor integrated in Engine Control Unit ECU 4 has the followingfunctions:
Maintaining the desired engine speed under varying load conditions Adjusting the engine speed when settings are changed by the operator
Other tasks of Engine Control Unit ECU 4 with regard to speed governing are: Setting defined feeding on starting the engine Engine safety shutdown Optimizing performance characteristics, exhaust emission values and fuel con-
sumption Protecting the engine against overloading
Engine governing incorporates protective functions for the engine, e.g. power limitation bylimiting the amount of fuel injected depending on certain operating values and conditions.
Engine speed setting (nominal value) can be switched between: Remote Control System (setting via CAN bus or analog/binary signal) Local operation on the integral LOP with luminous pushbuttons
3.2.3.2 Nominal speed value handling
The speed setting (= nominal speed value) is the reference variable for the engine speedcontrol loop. The nominal speed is set via the CAN bus under normal operating conditions(with Remote Control System RCS-5 connected).
An analog input (4 mA ... 20 mA) and binary up/down inputs are provided for connectingremote control systems produced by other manufacturers. It is possible to switch betweenanalog and binary speed setting using a separate binary input.

The power supply and monitoring concept is based on two separate, independent supplyvoltages the main supply and the emergency supply.
Both voltages are combined with decoupling diodes, i.e. should one supply fail, thesystem is immediately supplied with the second voltage.
The supply voltages for the individual units are separate for control (i.e. ECU 4 andGCU 1) and monitoring (i.e. EMU 1 and GMU 1) and are protected by fuses.All supply voltages, including main and emergency supply, are monitored by electronic cir-cuits. Monitoring is also evaluated by the respective partner system to make it possible tosignal an alarm message even if one side should fail completely.

3.3 Bus systems/communication technology
Propulsion Control System PCS-5 uses the following bus system: CAN bus in accordance with ISO 11 898 (high speed) Layer 2: CAN specification 2.0 B Data format/protocol/network management: Field bus 1
The CAN bus is a standard field bus used for automation purposes with which varioussystems, units, sensors and actuators are able to communicate with each other.
PCS-5 has two CAN bus interfaces.
3.3.1 The CAN bus
CAN bus features: Structure:
Electrical isolation of bus and electronics Physical transmission medium:
Two-wire shielded twisted pair cable with terminators (120 ) at both ends ofthe bus
Signal:Differential electrical signal with extremely high transmission reliability; 0/1 detection CAN high/CAN low (adjustable); serial bus in accordance with ISO 11 898
Transmission rate:Field bus 1 operates at 125 Kbit/s
Bus access: The CAN bus is a message-based bus system Access to the bus is regulated by arbitration of the identifier field of the CAN
data telegram Priority on the bus is controlled by IDs; in case of simultaneous access to
the bus, the bus station with the lower ID is given the right to transmit Fault detection/correction:
Each bus node listens to the echo of its own message and can therebyrecognize any transmission error; if errors occur constantly, the bus node auto-matically deactivates itself in order to avoid unnecessary error messages
Field bus 1 uses a simple object-oriented communication protocol. Process data aretransmitted cyclically with delta monitoring (unconfirmed communication service).In addition to data communication services, the transmission protocol implements organi-zational functions which are controlled by the network management feature.
Structure and function Chapter 3Page 35FRIEDRICHSHAFEN
E 531 730 / 00 E 03.98
3.3.2 Network management
Network management involves: Network monitoring of PCS bus stations Automatic switching to the redundant field bus in case of fault or switching
back to the default field bus after fault rectification (bus error handling) Handling of CAN controller error messages Constant checking of redundancy
3.3.3 Redundant switching
In a redundant bus system, errors are detected by monitoring bus status. The bus stationstransmit their data on the available bus.
This decentralized network management ensures a high degree of reliability.

4.2 Safety system SISY
4.2.1 Safety system SISY assemblies
The following assemblies are required in Propulsion Control System PCS-5 to bring safetysystem SISY in line with classification directives:
Engine:Engine Control Unit ECU 4 with the basic range of measuring points, monitoring functions and engine governingandEngine Monitoring Unit EMU 1 for the extended range of measuring points andredundant monitoring and shutdown functions
GearGear Control Unit GCU 1 for the basic range of measuring points, monitoringfunctions and gear controlandGear Monitoring Unit GMU 1 for the extended range of measuring points andredundant monitoring and shutdown functions
Monitoring central stationLocal Operating Panel LOP for local operation serving also as an interfacebetween propulsion assemblies and operator assemblies
This combination of control units (ECU 4 and GCU 1) and monitoring units (EMU 1 andGMU 1) fulfills classification society requirements for safe propulsion plant design.
It is also possible to use control units ECU 4 and GCU 1 alone for engine and gear (seechap. 5). In conjunction with a Local Operating Panel LOP, this makes it possible to realizea high-quality, easily integrated Propulsion Control System ensuring a sufficient standardof safety for commercial applications (in particular yachts).

Reliability is ensured by a dual circuit safety system. It monitors propulsion operatingvalues and responds to any irregularities.
When limit values are reached, the safety system Protects the engine from assuming critical operating states Warns operating personnel via a connected Monitoring and Control System Temporarily adapts operation to the remaining possibilities
Depending on the measured values, warnings, start interlocks, power reduction, engineshutdown by reducing feeding to zero or closing the shut down air flaps take place.
Safety features Chapter 4Page 41FRIEDRICHSHAFEN

4.2.2.1 Activities of the safety system
The safety system can automatically initiate the following activities on detecting criticaloperating states:
Power/feeding limitation or reduction Engine stop by reducing feeding to zero Emergency engine stop by activating an emergency shutdown in case of over-
speeding Disengagement
If the safety system detects a sensor signal failure, a fault message is output via theMonitoring and Control System.
4.2.2.2 Safety shutdowns
Safety shutdowns to protect the diesel engine take effect when the limit values of thefollowing measuring points are violated:
Engine speed (emergency shutdown) Engine lube oil pressure Coolant temperature (depending on engine manufacturer and classification
requirements) Gear control oil pressure Other optional measuring points
It is also possible to have feeding limitation instead of engine shutdown in the case oforder-dependent safety shutdowns.
4.2.3 Safety system override
The override function inhibits automatic engine stopping. This may be of considerableimportance to maintain manoeuvrability in certain situations. Stop commands from theengine or gear monitoring systems are not executed when safety system override isactive.
When the engine is started with override active, the Gear not neutral and SDAF closedstart interlocks are bypassed.
The emergency stop function (emergency stop pushbuttons, overspeeding) is not influen-ced by override.

Propulsion Control System PCS-5 can be configured to fulfill various requirements.
These chapters illustrate exemplary applications and the various structures. The standardscope of supply is the minimum requirement for monitoring, regulating and controlling anDDC/MTU series 2000 engine. Open system architecture makes it possible to operateother systems in conjunction with Propulsion Control System PCS-5 using the Local Ope-rating Panel LOP with its two CAN bus interfaces.
Standard interfaces can be adapted to these two CAN bus interfaces. This makes it possi-ble to operate customized systems (or even existing ones, e.g. on replacing engines) inconjunction with Propulsion Control System PCS-5.
Note: These examples show PCS-5 for one propulsion line or engine only. However,a propulsion plant generally comprises two to four propulsion lines and thesame number of engines. In this case, each propulsion line has its own PCS-5and the corresponding assemblies on the control consoles.
Applications involving PCS-5 in conjunction with Monitoring and Control SystemMCS-5 (process visualization, see chap. 5.2.2) form an exception. One graphicstation can be used to visualize the data of several PCS-5 Propulsion ControlSystems and make it possible to enter data for several propulsion lines.

The assemblies shown in fig. 21 are used for standard applications. The two assembliesused for controlling the engine (ECU 4) and the gear (GCU 1) cover the minimum range ofmonitoring functions. Local operation takes place at the Local Operating Panel LOP 1. It ispossible to connect any additional sensors which may be required (e.g. start air pressureor water level in fuel prefilter) at the Local Operating Panel. Alarm horn, alarm beaconand starting devices are controlled by the corresponding outputs of Local Operating PanelLOP 1.
The two MTU systems RCS-5 and MCS-5 are connected to PCS-5 via the redundant CANbus.
The redundant power supply increases operational reliability of the system in case of pro-blems with the ships power supply.

Fig. 22 : Monitoring II PCS-5 fulfilling classification standards
To fulfill classification standards, additional measuring points and redundancies must beprovided to protect the engine. The application shown in fig. 22 shows how these stan-dards can be met by including one additional assembly for the engine and another for thegear:
Gear Control and Monitoring Unit GCU/GMU 1 allows for the acquisition of anextended range of measuring points on the gear and the acquisition of shaftspeed compared to Gear Control Unit GCU 1. Gear Control and Monitoring UnitGCU/GMU 1 outputs an engine stop signal if limit values are violated.
Engine Monitoring Unit EMU 1 likewise provides an additional range of inputsfor acquiring measured values. Engine Monitoring Unit EMU 1 outputs anengine stop signal if limit values are violated.

The application shown in fig. 23 exemplifies a simple engine monitoring and controlsystem using MCS-5 components.
The assemblies in the control consoles are connected via the PCS-5 field bus (linkedthrough Local Operating Panel LOP 1). Signals are input and output via PIM PeripheralInterface Modules equipped with the appropriate printed circuit boards.
Due to its simple structure, the connection between individual installation locations onboard ship (engine room, main control console, auxiliary control console) only comprisesthe PCS-5 field bus, the power supply and the emergency stop function (hard-wired).

The application shown in fig. 24 illustrates engine monitoring in conjunction with anMCS-5 graphic station for both shafts. The PCS-5 field bus is adapted to the MCS-5 pro-cess bus in one Programmable Process Station provided for each shaft. Measured valuesand signals for data input via the graphic station are thus made available to all PropulsionControl Systems PCS-5 of the propulsion plant and are acquired by all PCS-5.

Fig. 25 : Propulsion Control System PCS-5, monitoring I, with interfaces for external systems
The interfaces for external systems produced by other manufacturers or existing systems(e.g. when engines are replaced) are realized in three different ways:
Directly at Local Operating Panel LOP 1 and Gear Control Unit GCU 1 orGMU 1 of the PCS; signals can be supplied for speed setting and clutch control
Converting the PCS-5 field bus to an RS422 interface makes it possible to con-nect a monitoring and control system with a serial interface (standard MCS-5protocol)
Parallel signals are available for controlling analog instruments via a PIM;furthermore, pushbuttons can also be connected to make direct inputs possible(e.g. start, stop), the emergency stop pushbutton is hard-wired to Local Opera-ting Panel LOP 1.
