PREFACE

The Global Interlock System (GIS) Design represents a challenge in that its design is in parallel with (and

in some cases before) the designs of the systems it is meant to safeguard. Without completed designs and

hazard analyses, the safety functions that the GIS are to implement cannot be completely defined.

The design of the Global Interlock System has been separated into two main portions. There is the

hardware design, the GIS Architecture, which is the subject of SPEC-0112. The second portion is the

software design, the GIS Functional Description, which is handled in this document.

The reason for this separation is that the hardware design has been developed and is well understood. The

GIS Functional Design requires the completion of subsystem designs, hazard analyses, and risk

assessments.

In order to not delay development and construction of the GIS Architecture, the two portions have been

separated.

The hardware architecture has been designed with the premise of flexibility, expandability, and

programmability as basic considerations. This lends itself well to being adaptable to any safety function

that may need to be implemented.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 PURPOSE

This document provides the basis of design for the architecture of the ATST Global Interlock System

(GIS). The design of the GIS is provide in two main sections, the architecture which describes the

hardware and interfaces of the system; and the functional design which covers design and implementation

of the safety-related control functions.

The diagrams and descriptions of safety function presented below are meant to convey the general flow of

the safety function and the interactions between the various subsystems. They are not intended to cover

the implementation details. For example, almost all safety inputs and outputs are redundant and usually

employ negative logic, meaning that for a single item such as “Door 501A locked” there are two signals

that indicate the door is not closed plus two more signals that indicate the solenoid controlling the door is

not unlocked. Including this level of detail would add complexity and not aid in understanding how the

various safety functions control safety.

2. CONTROL SOFTWARE

The GuardLogix controller will be programmed with RSLogix 5000 version 20. Use of major version 20

(or higher) is required to accommodate unicast messaging, Windows 7, L7 series ControlLogix

controllers. All hardware must be compatible with version 20. (See

http://support.rockwellautomation.com/ControlFlash/ for firmware requirements.)

The specific version is currently 20.03 which is incompatible with earlier minor revisions due to a change

to enhance security. All programs written in 20.01 will be converted to 20.03 during IT&C. The process

is generally automatic.

The GuardLogix controller runs both a standard task and a safety task. All functions of the GIS are

implemented in the safety task. If the controller is also used for subsystem control, all subsystem control

functions will be implemented in the standard task.

2.1 APPLICATION CODE

Application code routines will be developed using relay ladder logic language as it is the best choice for

machine interlocking that require complex logical operations and few high-level functions.

The safety task uses a subset of the standard ladder logic instruction set that is safety-certified instructions

plus application instructions that are also safety-certified. Only safety-certified instructions will be used in

the safety task. This does not preclude the use of add-on functions built using safety-certified instructions,

but such an instruction requires specific review and validation (per IEC 61508) before being used.

Section 4 lists the safety control requirements that will be implemented by the GIS. Each safety function

will be a separate program within the safety task running on the GuardLogix controller.

2.1.1 Revision Control

To aid in tracking and control of various revisions to the application code the Project Vault (Solidworks

Enterprise PDM) will be used. Because the code is being developed in a single developer environment the

need for a more advanced and robust solution is not necessary and would add complexity with little value.

Also the ladder logic is stored in proprietary binary format that does not lend itself well to the use of

standard versioning control software.

The Project Vault allows for the control of changes and edits in a single user environment as well as the

ability to roll back changes if needed. It is centrally located and can be accessed remotely as needed.

The Project Vault will be used continuously from development into operations.

2.2 LADDER LOGIC EXAMPLE

Inputs from each LIC are consumed, and evaluated; subsequent outputs are produced to other LICs as

necessary.

Page 8: GIS Functional Design · The Global Interlock System (GIS) Design represents a challenge in that its design is in parallel with (and in some cases before) the designs of the systems

GIS Functional Design

SPEC-0140, Draft B1 Page 4 of 33

Figure 2-1 shows a short example of the ladder logic of the safety task that would be used with a typical

emergency stop circuit. The program uses application instructions that not only monitor the condition of

the emergency stop switch, but compares the two channels for consistency and also monitors the status of

the remote I/O module to detect a hardware failure. In the event of a hardware failure, the system defaults

to a safe state.

The program combines inputs from local emergency stop switches with a tag received from the GIC

which indicates the status of the Emergency Stop System. If both are in the active safe state then two

outputs are asserted that energize the drive and enable the pulse output of the drive.

When an emergency stop switch is pushed (or a hardware fault is detected), the two outputs are removed.

First the output to the drive pulse suppression is removed and 200mS later (configurable) the power is

removed from the drive’s power contactor removing all hazardous energy. If either feedback from the

outputs does not indicate that the drive was properly shutdown a fault will be detected that can warn

personnel that a potential hazard still exists.

3. GIS OPERATION

3.1 STATUS MONITORING AND FAULT HANDLING

In addition to the various safety functions implemented by the GIS, the GIS must also recognize and react

to any fault that is detected.

The distributed I/O modules perform self-diagnostics on power-up and periodically during operation. In

addition these modules also monitor I/O circuit health.

3.2 EMBEDDED CONTROL OPERATION

Each LIC is the safety controller for one or more subsystems. The application program for each LIC

functions as an independent system. The safety controller will be capable of startup and control of its

safety functions regardless of connectivity to the GIC or other outside service.

3.3 CHANGE OF NETWORK STATUS

Failure of the network does not result in a loss of safety function. Failure of the network which causes

loss of communications with distributed I/O or a remote controller causes each such component of the

GIS that relies on such communications to default to a safe state.

Restoration of the network function does not automatically restore operation of the GIS without

intervention from the operator.

3.4 OPERATION FOLLOWING A REBOOTING OR RESTARTING

Rebooting or restarting causes the portion of the GIS that was rebooted or restarted to enter a safe state.

Rebooting or restarting does not result in a loss of safety function.

4. SAFETY-RELATED CONTROL FUNCTIONS

This section lists and summarizes the current list of planned safety functions.

Safety-related control functions (SRCFs) are the result of a detailed hazard analysis of the equipment

under control. After a hazard has been identified that will be mitigated by functional safety, the

specification for each safety-related control function will be developed. Each SRCF will comprise of the

functional requirements and the safety integrity requirements.

The functional requirements will detail the description of the SRCF, the conditions in which the SRCF

shall be active or disabled, the required responses to trips and faults, the timing and priority of responses

of the SRCF.

The safety integrity requirement will detail the necessary risk reduction for each SRCF.

It is imperative that the subsystem’s hazard analysis be detailed, thorough, and complete. These hazard

analyses are used to develop the various safety functions. If a hazard analysis does not identify a hazard

that hazard will not be safeguarded, presenting a serious potential risk to personnel and infrastructure.

It is foreseen that this list will need to be expanded and altered as additional hazards are identified during

design, construction, integration, and testing. Additional hazard will require additional safety functions to

be developed and likely will result in added hardware to detect the hazard and/or implement the

safeguard.

4.1 EXAMPLE OF DEVELOPMENT OF SAFETY-RELATED CONTROL FUNCTIONS

To look at how the various Safety-Related Control Functions have been developed, we will follow an

example of the how the related functions of the sun sensor we developed.

Early in the project it was recognized that the concentrated sunlight near the focus could provide a

thermal hazard to personnel and equipment. The Hazard Analysis Team then met to analyze the hazards

created.

The first was to define the extent of the hazard. Due to the fast focus of the telescope design the

concentrated sunlight is limited to a relatively small area near the prime focus. For example the rapidly

diverging beam would spread its energy over a fairly large area by the time the beam reaches the interior

walls of the enclosure. While potentially a problem for thermal effects of seeing it does not represent a

safety hazard.

The hazard to personnel is relatively easy to mitigate as it would require personnel to be near the prime

focus which is inherently difficult in normal operations.

The hazard is mostly to the equipment itself. Due to its very nature the heat stop is designed to withstand

this energy (given normal operation of the heat stop—failure of the heatstop thermal control has its own

safety functions). This leaves damage to equipment near the heatstop. There are various cables and pipes

in this area that could potentially be damaged/destroyed by sufficiently concentrated energy.

The solution was to design and implement a sun sensor that would determine if the sun was within 1.5

solar radii (R☉) of on-axis pointing. If the sun is within 1.5 R☉) the excess energy will be absorbed by the

heatstop as designed. (See 4.3.3 On-Sun Pointing)

However, it was clarified that the telescope also needed to be able to view objects at elongations of

greater than 1.5 R☉. This leaves a complex problem of understanding where excess energy may focus

depending on the relative angles of the sun, telescope, and entrance aperture, something that does not lend

itself well to robust safety function.

Page 11: GIS Functional Design · The Global Interlock System (GIS) Design represents a challenge in that its design is in parallel with (and in some cases before) the designs of the systems

GIS Functional Design

SPEC-0140, Draft B1 Page 7 of 33

The decision was made to restrict observations to elongations greater than 25° as the geometry is such

that no sunlight should strike the primary mirror if the entrance aperture is more than 25° from the

telescope’s line-of-sight.

Also if the sun is below the horizon it is also considered safe.

The last two items revealed the need to introduce an additional safety function (see 4.3.2 Off Sun

Pointing) to calculate the sun’s position and determine if the sun is in a safe position relative to the

telescope.

4.2 REQUIREMENTS FOR SAFETY FUNCTIONS

4.2.1 Control Reliability

In order to ensure a safety system safety functions require that hardware needed in each safety function

have a fault tolerance of at least 1 (i.e. loss of any single component will not cause the loss of the safety

function). Secondly, diagnostics will be included to detect a failure of any component that could cause a

loss of a safety function at or before the next demand on that component.

4.2.2 Response Time

Each safety function must have a response time of less than 200 milliseconds as measured from the time

an input changes until the output changes to a safe state. The safety function must either respond to an

input change or default to the safe state within that time. The safety function may not necessarily

complete its action by that time but must initiate a change to the safe state

The safety function must complete any action required to reach a safe state before any hazard can cause

damage.

For example the M1 Mirror Cover must begin closing with 200 milliseconds of an over temperature fault

but may take as long as 15 seconds to completely close. The upper limit is imposed by the duration of the

heat stop shutter ability to withstand damage.

4.3 GLOBAL SAFETY FUNCTIONS

There are several safety functions that span multiple systems. These safety functions are controlled by the

Global Interlock Controller and are referred to as Global Safety Functions.

4.3.1 Emergency Stop Safety Function

All subsystems’ emergency stop devices are combined in logic at the GIC, so that activating any

emergency stop device will cause all GIS-connected subsystems to go to their safe state. In most cases

they will perform an immediate stop (category 0 or 1 stop as determined by subsystem analysis). The

exception is that M1 Mirror Cover and Enclosure Entrance Aperture will close (their safe state) in a

predetermined sequence.

4.3.2 Off Sun Pointing

The design of the telescope is such that during normal operation most of the reflected solar energy from

the M1 is directed into the heat stop. There are dangers associated with the reflected solar energy near the

prime focus. It is therefore desirable to restrict where this reflected energy may fall. The light path is

blocked by redundantly using the Aperture Cover and the M1 Cover, either of which would be effective

but both are used to avoid a potential single point failure.

Obviously, when the Sun is below the horizon the telescope should be able to point safely at any location

in the sky. To determine the location of the Sun relative to horizon, a relatively simple ephemeris

calculation is needed. This calculation relies on two different time sources (NTP and PTP). These two

sources are compared for agreement. If they agree and the Sun is below the horizon, the light path may be

opened.

Additionally, when the Sun is more than 25° away from where the telescope is pointing no sunlight will

reach the primary mirror, thus there is no reflected solar radiation to be concerned with. In this case the

light path may also be opened.

4.3.3 On-Sun Pointing

Related to the off Sun pointing are on-axis solar observations. When the sun is within 1.5 solar radii (R☉),

the reflected solar energy is trapped in the heat stop. This is the normal operating condition of the

telescope. Due to the accuracy required to ensure that the reflected energy is contained within the heat

stop, the above ephemeris calculation is unlikely to be sufficiently accurate.

In this case, a small sun position sensor will be required. This sensor is essentially a small pin-hole

camera that uses a two-dimensional position sensitive device (PSD) to determine if the sun is on-axis.

It should be noted that the Safety Shutter in front of the heat stop is not used in this safety function. If the

telescope is sufficiently off-axis, the Safety Shutter would not block the light path. If the telescope is on-

axis, the heat stop should absorb the solar energy as designed. Failure of the heat stop is covered

elsewhere.

If the M1 cover is closed or no sunlight striking the M1 there is no reflected solar energy. Typical

operation will require that in order to acquire the sun, the telescope points at the sun with the M1 cover

to open and the aperture is permitted to stay open.

Similar to the Entrance Aperture below, the M1 cover may open when there is no sunlight on the mirror.

Additionally if the telescope is pointed directly at the sun and the safety shutter is open and the heat stop

is not in an over-temperature condition the M1 Cover may open.

4.3.6 Hazardous Access

Because of the many large moving elements of the facility there exist numerous hazards associated with

personnel exposed to these mechanisms. In order to limit exposure a trapped key plan will be

implemented to inhibit access to hazardous areas during motion. See SPEC-0133 Hazardous Zones Fully

Automated Control Access for details.

Because of the design of the GIS being distributed the safety functions that implement hazardous access

control bridge the GIC and LICs. The Facility LIC typically handles the input from the trapped keys and

controls the locking of various doors and access points. The GIC controls the various permissive signals

to individual LICs to inhibit hazardous motion.

5. HMI FUNCTIONS

5.1 SYSTEM STATUS

The HMI will display the current status of hardware that comprises the GIS. This display will show any

faulted or unconnected equipment to allow for rapid troubleshooting. The results of component self-

diagnostics will also be displayed.

Part of the status display will show whether there are any I/O forces and that all controllers have valid

safety signatures.

General health information about the GIS will also be provided this will include information such as

network utilization.

5.2 SAFETY FUNCTION STATUS

The HMI will also display the current status of all GIS safety functions. The HMI will display which

systems are currently interlocked (tripped) or faulted.

5.3 OPERATOR CONTROL

The HMI will also serve as a central point to acknowledge alarms and to reset trips and faults that occur

anywhere in the system. After the operator has verified that the cause of the trip or fault has been rectified

the HMI will allow password-controlled access to reset the system and restore operation.

5.4 ENGINEERING INTERFACE

The HMI will be capable of displaying engineering screens that detail hardware status and configuration.

These screens will be separate from the user screens and will require password-controlled access.

5.5 LOGGING

The HMI also provides logging of trips and faults that occur within the system. The logs will be time-

stamped to allow for correlation of GIS events with activities within the facility.
