SMART DCS Operator Level Operator level contains the functions for operation and observation, archives, and logs,
trends, and alarms. Open-loop and closed-loop control functions are processed in the
controllers.
The SMART DCS operator stations use PC hardware, either standard or industrialized in line
with the application, running under the Microsoft Windows operating system. Operator station
supports dual-monitor operation, meaning that two monitors can be used on a single PC,
operated using one mouse and one keyboard.
One engineering station and several operator stations can be installed at the operator level.
The SMART DCS engineering station is used to configure and commission the system.
Usually, portable equipment such as laptops, which allow configuration both in the office and
on site, is used. The operator level PCs can also be used as engineering station. A
permanent connection to the engineering system is not necessary
SMART DCS Process Level At the process level, SMART DCS system can consist of several process stations that are
connected with I/O units. You have the option of running these process stations either
redundantly (CPU redundancy, fieldbus module redundancy) or without redundancy.
Modular plug-in input/output modules are used in accordance with the type and quantity of
process signals. SMART DCS Communication Level At Operator Level The data communication of operational level is known as system network (SNET). SNET is
used for data and resource connection, sharing, and printing between engineer station,
operator stations and system Historian.
SNET is redundant-capable to support real-time industrial Ethernet with star, loop, or bus
topology structure. It follows the IEEE802.3 and IEEE802.3u standards with adaptable baud
rate of 10/100Mbps and uses category 5 twisted pair and optical fiber with RJ-45 connection

Hardware Reliability SMART DCS features the following reliability technologies:
Redundancy Controller Redundancy
Controller's redundancy is used with one primary and the other standby. It is designed
with hardware redundancy, shift and fault self-detect circuit. Two controllers receive
network data and make calculation at the same time but only one output the calculated
results and updates the real-time data. Once the primary controller fails, the standby
unit will be shifted to work as the primary without any disturbances.
Power Supply Redundancy Modules Power modules are specially designed in redundant configuration, in case one power
module fails, the other will take over the entire power load.
I/O Redundancy AI/AO equipments are configured in redundancy.
Network Redundancy Industrial Ethernet interfaces with redundancy are configured for the controller with
embedded Profibus-DP master station interface.
Distribution and Isolation SMART I/O series, mounted in rails, can be centralized, distributed or remotely
distributed. Barrier circuit (channel isolation for AI/AO, optical-coupling isolation for DI,
optical-coupling isolation or relay isolation for DO) prevents disturbance from the
system. Channel isolation is able to eliminate the damage caused by field potential
difference.
Easy Maintenance Self-diagnosis
With embedded controller, each module is able to have periodic self-diagnosis,
including the following:
o DO channel: read-back, comparison, and self-diagnosis. o AI channel: adopts special input channel fault-diagnosis technology, diagnoses
and checks open circuit, short-circuit and jump.
o AO channel: adopts special output channel fault-diagnosis and diagnoses output channel and executor.
Status Indicators There are LED indicators in all modules and controllers, including running indicator,
error indication and network communication indicator. The running status of all modules

SMDCS-CP Controller Redundancy
Now you dont have to worry about a controller failure interrupting your process and
causing costly downtime. Using a SMDCS-CP redundant controller, your process is
automatically protected in case of a failure.
When an active controller fails, the standby controller takes over, providing uninterrupted
control operation without initialization or user intervention.
The switchover generates no disturbances to the field output signals; the process
continues as though nothing had happened.
The automatic switchover protects you if either controller should fail. If the active
controller fails, the standby controller automatically becomes the active controller. A
message is sent to the operator indicating that switchover has occurred. If the standby
controller should fail, the software generates a message to the operator and switchovers
are disabled until the failed unit is replaced.
Some of the events that can cause a switchover are:
Hardware failure within the active controller
Communications failure between the active controller and I/O
Communications failure on both control network ports
Removal of the active controller from the rack

Benefits
Uninterrupted control operation: Using the capabilities of the SMDCS-CP Controller, you can establish a safety net to protect your process from unexpected controller failures.
Automatic commissioning: The system automatically commissions a standby controller as its installed. You dont need to bring the system down to add redundancy. Addressing
and configuration are automatic.
Bumpless transition: You can add redundancy to an existing system as your needs grow. Redundancy adds minimal processing overhead to the system, allowing you to add
increased reliability without having to increase the processing capability.
SMDCS-CP Profibus DP Interface
The SMDCS-CP Profibus DP interface is a field-proven interface for Smart I/O series,
discrete actuators and sensors. It is easy to install, reliable, and simple to use.

proven transmission technology make the SMDCS-CP Profibus-DP a good interface
solution for complex devices.
The Profibus DP bus structure permits step-by-step commissioning of the additional
stations without influencing existing stations. Future expansions have no effect on
stations already in operation.
You can rely on SMDCS-CP Profibus DP cards to provide real-time, consistently accurate
inputs and outputs. As the network of field devices grows, maintenance remains constant.

SMART DCS Sequence of Event (SOE) Module Overview
When a process upset occurs, events can take place very rapidly throughout your process
area. In order to correctly determine the cause of the upset, accurate recording and
sequencing of the events is essential. Sequence of Events provides a means of recording the
events associated with a process upset, and using highly accurate time stamps to determine
the precise order in which they occurred
System Description
The SMART DCS system is designed to capture and time stamp the events as close to the
source as possible, providing you with a much more accurate picture of the sequence of
events as they occurred.
The SMART DCS system receives process-upset signals using the Sequence of Events input
module. This module with 30 discrete input channels and each channel is configured as SOE
input.
Benefits Captures process-upset events close to the source for faster recording: Sequence of Events (SOE) input modules are used to capture process- upset events coming
directly from devices in the field.
Provides increased resolution of timestamps for more accurate event sequencing: Events captured by an SOE input module are time stamped using a 1 millisecond resolution.
Additionally, the time stamps are resolved by the SMART DCS controller to ensure accuracy
across the SMART DCS network. Using a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server
The NTP server uses the Global Positioning System satellites for an accurate time reference.
As the controller reads events, they are time stamped using the NTP server as a reference.
This method of synchronization, along with the increased resolution, provides a much more
accurate and complete picture of the order in which the events occurred.
Easily integrates data with desktop applications for detailed analysis and reporting. The Event Chronicle stores these events electronically, so that you always have easy, reliable
access to the data. A single Event Chronicle can capture system events spanning multiple
SOE - Sequence of Event
controllers and workstations, so that you can look in one place to find all the relevant data.
Additionally, multiple Event Chronicles can reside on the same Smart DCS network for
redundant event capturing. The events stored in the Event Chronicle can be easily viewed
using the Process History Viewer application, which displays the events in chronological order.
The Event Chronicle can automatically export data as well, so that it can be read using other
software packages such as the standard Microsoft Office applications.
