2. Common data
2.1. Basic description

Basic Objects provide access and control for process IO-signals and calculated IO-signals
from the ABB System 800xA operator workplace.
All basic objects have the following common basic functions:
– Tracking of control mode and status changes on the Operator station
– Operator Station Interface (graphic element and faceplate) including detailed alarm and
interlock indications.
2.2. Control
2.2.1. Library location
The Control Module Types for basic objects and its corresponding Structured Data Types are
located in the library BMIStandard for Control Builder M Professional.

2.2.2. Control modes

The basic objects AO and DO have 2 different control modes Man and Auto. All modes are se-
lectable from the operator station or the superior application.
Man:
Object is controlled via On/Off commands for DO’s and Set Value commands for AO’s. These
commands are issued from the faceplate.
Auto:
Object is controlled by On/Off commands for DO’s and Set Value commands for AO’s. These
commands are issued from the superior application.
2.2.3. PCC, Interlock Bus (Process Control Connection)

PCC Bus concept
Using the unique PCC (Process Control Connection) concept input signal objects (AIS/AIC and
DIS/DIC) can propagate their state to the consumer object. Depending on the configuration,
signals may send interlock actions to the connected consumer without using binary interlock
code. In addition, it is possible to navigate between faceplates of signals and consumers via
the PCC connection.
Basic Functions of PCC
– Interlock configuration for connected consumers thru parameters on AIS/AIC and

DIS/DIC.
– Connection of unlimited number of AIS and DIS to a Consumer Object or Group
– Local Start override and Start Inhibit
– Automatic first fault detection of signal causing an interlock. First fault is presented on
the Consumer Object and Group faceplates including a link button to the source signal
– Link between AIS, AIC / DIS, DIC faceplates and to the consumer / group faceplate
– Two direction Alarm Acknowledgement between AIS/DIS and Consumer / Group. Typical
use is the auto alarm-acknowledge while a Consumer Object is controlled in Local.
– Function Block PCC_Connect allows connecting two or more consumers or groups to one
AIS / DIS. In addition, this Function Block allows overwriting of the PCC Alarm/Event ena-
bling from the consumer for the connected AIS / DIS. For each connected consumer an in-
dividual Interlock forwarding mask defines which interlocks are blocked on a per limit ba-
sis if they are not desired.
– Function Block PCC_ThresholdAND3 to handle complex interlocks. It allows defining multi-

ple custom conditions to be used as interlocks on the PCC bus.
– Overview of all Interlocks via PCC Viewer for consumer and group objects
– Automatic disabling of AIS / DIS alarming with the Consumer State. This function de-
pends on the Project Constants Settings:
cBMI.Std_Type: 0
Motor is not running, NC Valve is closed, NO Valve is Open, for PCC connected to Group: if
Group is not started
cBMI.Std_Type: 1

Same as Std_Type 0 but always alarm on all Objects if Group is started and Consumer prese-
lected. In case object is standby preselected alarm priority is automatically reduced from Fail-
ure to Warning.
PCCAEListFrcEn = true
Automatic alarm disabling switched off. This option shall be used in cases a signal has to
alarm independent from the status of its parent, e.g. a Silo Level.
PCC Interlock Parameter Description
The following configuration options are applicable for AIC, AIS, DIC, DIS, PIDCtrl, PCC_Intlk
and PCC_Threshold_AND3.
IntlkType and IntlkDir are limit-based configurations where as IntlkStartInhibit and IntlkLoc-
StartOverride are valid for all limits of the object.
Parameter Name Description
IntlkType - assigns the interlock to one of the interlock categories

- ready for start (RFS) configuration option to keep consumer ready for group
start even when interlock is present
- can be configured to start consumer in auto mode
IntlkDir - direction of interlock for two direction consumers

- Option to act only as start interlock
IntlkStartInhibit the interlocks are bypassed for the set time after the start of the PCC parent
(MOTx, VLVx)
Application example: bypass of rush in for motor current
IntlkLocStartOverride Bypass interlocks in Local mode if LCBStart is continuously pushed. All PCC par-
ents need to be in LOC.
Application example: temporary bypass of drift switches for a belt conveyor in
local mode to align the belt
The possible configuration settings for Interlock Type are:
IntrlkType Description
Configuration Option
PCC_Disabled No alarm or interlock forwarding on PCC bus
No_Interlock No interlock forwarding, only alarm forwarding
PD_PrevDrive Previous drive interlock, group remains ready for start
IA_Process Process interlock

If the consumer is in Auto mode, the IA interlock is not reset again on the ok
condition. It is only reset by an Auto_Start command from another PCC limit or
signal.
IA_Process_RFS Process interlock, group remains ready for start

Same functionality in Auto as described above.
IB_Equipment Equipment interlock
IB_Equipment_RFS Equipment interlock, group remains ready for start
IC_Safety Safety interlock
IC_Safety_RFS Safety interlock, group remains ready for start

Auto_Start Only used if consumer is in Auto mode: removes retained IA interlock if it is not
active anymore and thus the drive will start (IO.In.IA also needs to be ok)
The possible configuration settings for Interlock Direction are:
IntlkDir Description
Configuration Option
DirX Configured interlock is only valid for direction X
DirXStart Same as DirX, but once the consumer is running in direction X (or has reached end po-
sition X) the interlock is disregarded.
DirY Configured interlock is only valid for direction Y
DirYStart Same as DirY, but once the consumer is running in direction Y (or has reached end po-
sition Y) the interlock is disregarded.
DirXY Configured interlock is valid for direction X and Y
DirXYStart Same as DirXY, but once the consumer is running in direction X/Y (or has reached end
position X/Y) the interlock is disregarded.
DirFBX Configured signal is a dynamic feedback (like FB1 in MOT1) for direction X.
IO.Out.RunX will only become active once the condition is fulfilled.
It can be used for additional speed-, pressure, flow-switches with possible prewarning,
alarm and ready delay.
DirFBY Configured signal is a dynamic feedback (like FB1 in MOT2) for direction Y.
IO.Out.RunY will only become active once the condition is fulfilled.
It can be used for additional speed-, pressure, flow-switches with possible prewarning,
alarm and ready delay.
DirFBXY Configured signal is a dynamic feedback for direction X/Y.

IO.Out.RunX/Y will only become active once the condition is fulfilled.
It can be used for additional speed-, pressure, or flow-switches with possible prewarn-
ing, alarm and ready delay.
DirXFast Configured interlock to execute action in fast task for direction X.

Applicable for stop at position for MOT2, middle position stop for MOTP and the other
application where fast stop is required.
DirYFast Configured interlock to execute action in fast task for direction Y.

DirXYFast Configured interlock to execute action in fast task for direction X/Y.
DirFBXFast Combination of FB and Fast for Direction X
DirFBYFast Combination of FB and Fast for Direction Y
DirFBXYFast Combination of FB and Fast for Direction X/Y
DirXnoAck Configured interlock to use "Value" instead of "Normal". Useful for cases where opera-
tion will be possible even if the alarm was not acknowledged but the value returned to
Normal Position.
DirYnoAck Configured interlock to use "Value" instead of "Normal". Useful for cases where opera-
Normal Position.

DirXYnoAck Configured interlock to use "Value" instead of "Normal". Useful for cases where opera-
Normal Position.
DirXStartnoAck Same as DirXnoAck, but once the parent is running in direction X (or has reached end
position X) the interlock is disabled.
DirYStartnoAck Same as DirYnoAck, but once the parent is running in direction Y (or has reached end
position Y) the interlock is disabled.
DirXYStartnoAck Same as DirXYnoAck, but once the parent is running in direction X/Y (or has reached
end position X/Y) the interlock is disabled.
DirFBXnoAck Combination of FB and noAck for Direction X.
DirFBYnoAck Combination of FB and noAck for Direction Y.
DirFBXYnoAck Combination of FB and noAck for Direction X/Y.

2.2.4. Simulation Mode

It is possible to simulate DIS, AIS, DOS and AOS objects. Under simulation mode the hardware
error connection is not considered.
When the simulation mode is set, the following is the initial behavior after a warm start. No-
tice that it is the initial condition only which can be changed afterwards.
AIS hardware connection (error condition) is not considered and the value is set to 50% of the
total range. Input is blocked. Notice that the input will be blocked, and the value will be set to
50% only in case of warm start.
DIS hardware connection is not considered and the value is set to the normal position. Input
is blocked. Notice that the value is simulated only in case of warm start.
DOS and AOS hardware connections are not considered.
In case any of output objects (DOS and AOS) are connected to the hardware all the
changes to them will be written to the hardware.
For safety reason we advise to disconnect the Profibus, Modulebus and any other
hardware interface before enabling Simulation Mode.
2.2.5. Parameter Error

Elements and Faceplates do show Parameter Error if Control Module Parameters on the Block
or a connected Block are invalid. This Indication means that the Application Program needs to
be corrected.
Figure 1 - Example of Parameter Error Indication in Graphics
Not all Graphic Elements indicate Parameter Error and not all Parameters are vali-
dated for proper Range and Value. Testing is required to validate a new Application
Program; no indication of Parameter Error does not mean the Function works as in-
tended.

There are different reasons for Parameter Error in Basic Objects as follows:
Error Resolution
Wrong Value for PCC IntlkType or Check the Values of the PCC Parameters on the Control Module.
IntlkDir Parameter The wrong configured Interlock can be seen in the Parameter configu-
ration as well, e.g. in Limits Tab in AIS Faceplate if the wrong Parame-
ter is on a PCC Configuration of any of the Limit Values, this helps to
identify which Parameters need to be checked.
This Error is forwarded on PCC Bus and indicated on connected Con-
sumers as well
Error Status on AlarmCond Block Verify the Status Value of the AlarmCond Blocks is bigger or equal 0, if
any Error (Status < 0) is reported, refer to Control Builder Help (Status
and Error Messages – Alarm and Event) for Details
Common Errors are invalid characters or duplicates in Name parameter
fo the Control Module, invalid value on Class parameter
2.3. Operation

3. AI Analogue Input

The Control Module Types AIS and AIC are used to access and control an analog input.
– AIS module is used to read one analog input signal, coming from the process
– AIC module is used to write a calculated signal from the application, that is to be indicated
on the operator station and that will have alarm limit control.
The analog input module provides the following features:
– Blocking and forcing of input value
– Threshold detection and alarming on 4 alarm limit levels (L2,L1,H1,H2)
– Threshold detection and eventing on 2 Process Limit levels (PLo, PHi)
– Adjustable Low Pass Filter to create the FilteredSignal output.
– FilteredSignal Rate of change calculation and alarm. The ROC is presented in % of Total
Range per second.
– All Substatus for DP, PA and FF Field Devices will generate error control when quality is
Bad or Uncertain for AIS Control Module.
– Common or Individual alarm delay for all 6 limits.
– Alarm blocking (from faceplate). All alarm limit levels will be blocked.
– Alarm disabling/enabling of each alarm limit individually (from application program /

Faceplate); generating events when blocked.
– Single and Triple trend and automatic log configuration for:
– FilteredSignal
– IOSignal
– RateofChange
– Minerals Library Process Control Connection (PCC)
– Parameterized interlocks towards parent objects
– Advanced alarm disabling from parent objects
– Interface to Process Panel
Additionally, the AIS Control Module has the following feature:
– Signal Error pre-warning with adjustable alarm delay.

For AIS, use the Data type structure as follows:
Write: no supported (directly connected to IO Channel)
Read: IO.<TagName>. FilteredSignal.Value
Interlock: IO.<TagName>.<Limit>.Normal
For AIC, use the Data type structure:
Write: IO.<TagName>.Signal.IOValue
Read: IO.<TagName>. FilteredSignal.Value
Interlock: IO.<TagName>.<Limit>.Normal
FilteredSignal is related to the Signal as follows:
1
y k = xk  + y k −1 (1 −  );  =
FilterTime  0.87
+1
T
FilterTime
=
Which is equivalent to a 1st order low pass with 1.15
Note that the IO.FilteredSignal.Parameter Values are copied from the

IO.Signal.Parameter on Application Start only. In case of changes in the Hardware
Structure for the Channel where IO.Signal is connected, the Parameter Value can be
different between these two Variables after the download to the Controller.

FDStatusNC defines the Value that is used to detect that no Status is connected to the Mod-
ule. Note that this Value should be “impossible” to be sent at any time by a Field Device.
3.2.6. Time Diagram
For the Limits, the following timing diagram shows the behavior with Hysteresis and Alarm
Delay for the H1 resp. H2 Limit:
The Alarm Condition is defined as IO.FilteredSignal.Value higher or equal to the Limit Value.
Once the Alarm Delay has elapsed, the Value needs to be lower than the Limit Value minus the
Hysteresis in order to reset.

The Behavior for the L1 and L2 Limit is exactly the same but checks for the Value being lower
than the Limit.
Note that in case an Alarm is issued, the IO.<Limit>.Normal Value will keep false until the Op-
erator acknowledges the Alarm. This is not shown in the Diagram.
The Behaviour for PHi and PLo Limits is similar if “EnIndividualAlarmDelays” is set to true,
otherwise there will be no Delay (Delay = 0s). As there is no Alarm generated, no Normal and
Signal Values are provided in the IO Datatype.
The PCC Interlock Condition follows the IO.<Limit>.Normal, however with the “NoAck” Op-
tion, e.g. PCC Interlock Direction configured as “DirXYNoAck”, the Interlock Condition follows
the IO.<Limit>.Value.
3.2.7. PCC Interlock Limitations for AIS and AIC

The “Fast” interlock direction (e.g. DirXFast, DirFBXFast) is not supported for AIS and AIC.

Hysteresis Alarm Hysteresis in %
When limits are changed from the faceplate, you must take into consideration that these val-
ues will be overwritten again with the initial values when a cold restart / reset is performed
and the coldretain files are not available for the corresponding controller.
To avoid this, you need to update the initial values for the corresponding AIS/AIC control
module instance with Control Builder, after changing the Values from the Faceplate.
Six limits alarm delay – special mode
There is a possibility to enable individual alarm delays for each AIS/AIC element. The way to
do that is setting EnIndividualAlarmDelays parameter to true in each AIS/AIC element.
After a download, you will be able to notice the following appearance of the AIS faceplate

Faceplate Control Permission

By the Property Attribute Override Aspect, the faceplate Write permissions (IntPar) can be
configured according the plants access and permission concept. This can be done in the Con-
trol Structure or in the Object Type Structure.
Figure 21 - AIS Property Permissions
Note that forcing to a Value in the Faceplate does require Write permission for IO.Signal.Value
and IO.Signal.Forced, these are not set on IntPar Variables.
3.3.3. Alarm & Event List

Object Status and Modes
Object status and modes are presented on the event list. Whenever the object changes its
status or mode the complete information of the object at the time of the change is logged in
the event list. The AIS and AIC object event message has a dynamic structure, this means that
it can change depending on the case you have.
The first case for eventing is when some limit value is changed for some limits from the face-
plate. In this case the structure for the event message is the following:
[LIMIT SHORT NAME] + Value: + [OLD VALUE] -> [NEW VALUE]
[LIMIT SHORT NAME] Description
L1 Low limit 1
L2 Low limit 2
H1 High limit 1
H2 High limit 2
Phi Process limit high
Plo Process limit low
The OLD VALUE and NEW VALUE correspond exactly to the old and new value of the limit. The
next case is when some limit is blocked from the faceplate. In this case the structure for the
event message is the following.
Limit Blk: + [LIMIT NAME]

[LIMIT NAME] Description
L1 Low limit 1 is blocked
L2 Low limit 2 is blocked
H1 High limit 1 is blocked
H2 High limit 2 is blocked
Phi Process limit high is blocked
Plo Process limit low is blocked
The 3rd and last case of event messages in AIS and AIC is when we have a forced condition for
the MV value. In this case three types of messages are possible:
– When the Forced flag is selected the message is:
– FRC Value: [VALUE]
– Where value is the actual value set for the MV value:
– When the Forced selection is undone the message is:
– FRC Deselected
– Or when MV value is changed under forced condition, the message is:
– FRC Value: [OLD VALUE] -> [NEW VALUE]
Alarm Messages
For the AIS and AIC we have basically 3 main conditions for the alarm messages
– Limit H2 or L2
– Limit H1 or L1
– ROC (Rate of change)
– Signal Error
Notice that Process Limit (Plo/Phi) does not create any alarm. The maximum indication treat-
ment for the Process Limit is 0 (event) as described in the parameter description.For the
alarm limits (Limits H2, L2, H1 and L1) the message will always be:
[LIMIT TYPE]: [LIMIT VALUE]
[LIMIT TYPE] Description
L1 Low limit 1 is reached
L2 Low limit 2 is reached
H1 High limit 1 is reached
H2 High limit 2 is reached
Phi Process limit high is reached
Plo Process limit low is reached

Limit Value is the number defined over the Lim1 and Lim2 Tab for each Limit Type.
ROC is the rate of change for the MV values in a normal scale (0-100% of the total range). It
will create an alarm after the rate of change in seconds for the MV value is higher then the
one defined in the faceplate over the Lim2 tab.
When a ROC appears, the following message is shown in the alarm list:

ROC [ROC HIGH LIMIT]
Where the ROC HIGH LIMIT is the value set over Lim2 faceplate tab.
SigErr
The signal error alarm is created every time a hardware failure which that analog input is con-
nected is encountered. If the configured Signal Error Delay Time is bigger than 0 seconds, a
warning alarm will be sent immediately. The message for both, the warning and the alarm, is
defined as above.

4. AO Analogue Output

The Control Module Types AOS and AOC are used to access and control an analogue output.
– AOS module is used to control (write) one analogue output process signal
– AOC module is used to control (write) one analogue output calculated signal, that is to be
indicated on the operator station and that will have no alarm limit control.
The analog output module provides the following features:
– Automatic control from a superior application
– Manual control from the Operator Station (via the faceplate)
– Tracking of mode and output changes
– Output limitation high/low
– On-Line trend with actual output value shown in the faceplate.
– All Substatus for IO and FF Filed Device will generate error control when quality is Bad or
Uncertain for AOS Control Module
– Process Panel Interface

5. DI Digital Input

The Control Module Type DIS and DIC are used to access and control a digital input.
– DIS module is used to read one digital input signal, coming from the process
– DIC module is used to write a calculated signal from the application, that is to be indi-
cated on the operator station and that will have alarm indication.
The digital input module provides the following features:
– Blocking and forcing of input value
– Alarming if input value differs from pre-defined (healthy; normal position) state
– Warning delay time to generate a pre warning alarm or event before the main alarm (fail-
ure) occurs.
– Ready Delay time to hold the alarm position in order to prevent noisy signals to clear and
re-activate the alarm very often.
– Alarm delay
– Alarm blocking (from faceplate). All alarms and warnings will be blocked.
– Alarm disabling/enabling (from application program)
– On-Line trend with actual input value
– Minerals Library Process Control Connection (PCC)
– Parameterized interlocks towards parent objects
– Advanced alarm disabling from parent objects

5.2.6. Time Diagram

For the DIS and DIC, the following timing diagram shows the behaviour with Delays set:
The Alarm Condition is defined as SigHW.Value being different to NormPos. Warning delay is
the time between an Alarm Condition occurs until IO.Prewarning is set to true. Alarm delay is
the time between an Alarm Condition until the Alarm is generated and Signal.Normal, used in
the glue logic as Interlock to Consumers, becomes false. Note that if an Alarm is generated,
the Signal.Normal will be kept false until the Alarm has been acknowledged by the Operator,
independent of the Input Signals state (this is not shown in the diagram).
Ready delay is the time to disable IO.Prewarning or set Signal.Normal to true after the Alarm
Condition has disappeared. Note that if the AlarmCondition comes back, the Ready Delay
Timer will be reset. In case this happens during Prewarning is set, the whole Alarm Delay time
will be waited again until Signal.Normal changes to false.
Warning Delay, Alarm Delay and Ready Delay can be set from the faceplate.

M INER A LS LIB R ARY BA SI C O B J ECTS
The NormPos is a parameter set thru Control Builder in order to define the normal position
for the signal, which means, the value of the signal that will not create any warning or alarm.
The PCC Interlock Condition follows the Signal.Normal, however with the “NoAck” Option, e.g.
PCC Interlock Direction configured as “DirXYNoAck”, the Interlock Condition is not consider-
ing any Ready Delay as shown in the Diagram “PCC with NoAck”.
Note that when using the “Fast” Option for DIS Alarm, Delays are not supported.
5.2.7. PCC Interlock Limitations

The “Fast” Interlock configuration Option is not supported by the DIC CM. If IntlkDir is config-
ured as Fast (e.g. DirXFast, DirXYFastnoAck) the Interlock will still be executed as but without
the “Fast” option, and the FPL will indicate PCC Param Error.
For explanation of the different configuration options see chapter PCC Interlock Parameter
Description
Any Interlock defined by IntlkTypeWarning / IntlkDirWarning is only active before

the Alarm, while IO.PreWarning is false and IO.Signal.Normal is still true (see 5.2.6
for a diagram).
This means that the PCC Parameter for Alarm should always be set to an Interlock with prior-
ity equal or higher than the Interlock defined for Warning.

For the DIS, an alarm message is generated when the Signal.Value is different of NormPos pa-
rameter and the AlarmDelay time is elapsed. Then the message is the following:
[AETxt] + [Severity]
Where AETxt is a parameter defined over DIS parameters in the Control Builder and for sever-
ity the text can also be changed but then over BMIConstAndVar constants, depending on the
severity.

6. DO Digital Output

The Control Module Types DOS and DOC are used to access and control a digital output.
– DOS module is used to control (write) one digital output process signal
– DOC module is used to control (write) one digital output calculated signal, that is to be
indicated on the operator station and that will have no alarm indication.
The digital output module provides the following features:
– Automatic control from a superior application
– Manual control from the Operator Station (via the faceplate)
– Tracking of mode and output changes
– On-Line trend with actual output value shown in the faceplate.

7. PCC_Connect_6

The Control Module Type PCC_Connect_6 is used to
– assign a Basic Object via PCC to up to 6 consumers / groups
– overwrite the Warning / Failure state to the Basic Object if needed
Furthermore, it supports PCC Interlocks:
– Interlocks by default forwarded to all connected Consumers
– Individual Interlock forwarding mask for each consumer:
– Interlock forwarding can be disabled individually for each consumer
– Blocking Mask is per limit type (DIS: Alarm/Warning; AIS: H2, H1, PHi, PLo, L1, L2), each
type can be blocked individually
– Indication of blocked signals on PCC Bus forwarded to the consumer.

7.2.3. Interlock Masks

An interlock mask is composed of the following value definitions:
Mask Value Description
1/ 16#001 Interlock Action for H2 (AIS/PID) or Alarm (DIS) to be forwarded
2/ 16#002 Interlock Action for H1 (AIS/PID) or Warning (DIS) to be forwarded
4/ 16#004 Interlock Action for PHi (AIS/PID) to be forwarded
8/ 16#008 Interlock Action for PLo (AIS/PID) to be forwarded
16 / 16#010 Interlock Action for L1 (AIS/PID) to be forwarded
32 / 16#020 Interlock Action for L2 (AIS/PID) to be forwarded
64 / 16#040 Interlock Action for ROC (AIS) to be forwarded
128 / 16#080 Interlock Action for DEVH (PID) to be forwarded
256 / 16#100 Interlock Action for DEVL (PID) to be forwarded
512 / 16#200 Alarm Forwarding disabled, if set no Alarm Messages are forwarded
1024 / 16#400 Fast Interlock Action to be forwarded – this is not supported on the PCC_Connect
2048 / 16#800 Invert the behaviour of 16#200, forward all Alarm Messages (PCC Light behaviour) – even
if the corresponding Interlock is masked
Project Constants are used to ease the reading of the most common configurations
Constant Name Value Description
Transparent 2047 / 16#5FF All defined interlocks on the signal are forwarded to the consumer
NoInterlockFor- 0 / 16#0 Regardless of the configuration on the signal no interlock is for-

warding warded to the consumer. If the Active Alarm (highest Prio) is an Inter-
lock, the Alarm Indication will not be forwarded
NoInterlock- 2560 / 16#A00 No Interlock, but all Alarm Indications are forwarded (PCC Light be-
Fwd_FullAE haviour). This behaviour is similar to a PCCIntlk without Interlock Con-
dition configured
NoPCCForward- 512 / 16#200 Alarm and interlock forwarding to the consumer is disabled all to-
ing gether
DI_Alarm 1 / 16#001 Only interlock for DIS alarm is forwarded
DI_Warning 2 / 16#002 Only interlock for DIS warning is forwarded
AI_PID_H2 1 / 16#001 Only interlock for AIS/PID H2 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_H1 2 / 16#002 Only interlock for AIS/PID H1 limit is forwarded

AI_PID_L1 16 / 16#010 Only interlock for AIS/PID L1 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_L2 32 / 16#020 Only interlock for AIS/PID L2 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_H12 3 / 16#003 Interlock for AIS/PID H1 and H2 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_L12 48 / 16#030 Interlock for AIS/PID L1 and L2 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_All_H 7 / 16#007 Interlock for AIS/PID PHi, H1 and H2 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_All_L 56 / 16#038 Interlock for AIS/PID PLo, L1 and L2 limit is forwarded
AI_PID_PHiLo 12 / 16#00C Interlock for AIS/PID PHi and PLo limit is forwarded
PID_DevHL 384 / 16#180 Interlock for PID DevH and DevL limit is forwarded
Custom masks can be created in the project library if desired. The added-up values of the ac-
tions to be forwarded shall be defined as dword in hex format.
7.3. Operation
7.3.1. PCC Parent Link
The Control Module contains one Graphic Element that links to all connected PCC Consumer /
Group Objects. From the signals’ PCC Faceplate Element this Faceplate is linked and allows to
trace all connections in case a signal is connected to more than one parent.
Figure 49 - PCC Parent Link

8. PCC_Connect

The Function Block Type PCC_Connect has the same function as the PCC_Connect_6 Block,
but it allows connecting up to 32 Consumers.
It is an extensible Function Block and allows to configure the Number of Consumers that can
be connected.
Note that the “Fast” type of interlock is not executed in Fast Task and therefore
Fast interlocking using DIS is not supported by this block.
The PCC_Connect_6 Block can be used instead to support Fast Interlocks to multi-
ple Parents.

8.2.3. Interlock Masks

The Interlock Masks supported are exactly the same as for the PCC_Connect_6 Block as de-
scribed in 7.2.3
8.2.4. Application Example

In the following example the oil pumps _561_LQ1_M1 and _561_LQ1_M2 or the oil heater
_561_LQ1_H1 should only be started if there is enough oil in the tank. The corresponding level
switch _561_LQ1_L1 is configured as an IB_Equipment interlock. Thru a PCCComData variable
the DIS is connected to the PCC_Connect. Because the interlock should be defined for all 3
consumers, the IntrlkMask Transparent is used for all of them.
Figure 51 - Multi PCC connection Example.
8.3. Operation
8.3.1. PCC Parent Link
The Function Block contains one Graphic Element that links to all connected PCC Consumer /
Group Objects. As this Element is linked from the signals connected to the SignalPCC Bus, it
allows to trace all connections in case a signal is connected to more than one parent.

Figure 52 - Multiple PCC Parent Link

9. PCC_Threshold_AND3
9.1. Basic Description

The Function Block Type PCC_Threshold_AND3 allows handling of complex interlocks.
– Drive Condition (DriveCond) or main condition, which also acts as PCC interlock according
to the configuration, consists of up to 9 sub conditions. Each of these sub conditions con-
sists of 3 conditions itself.
– Level parameter defines how many of the sub conditions (SubCond) need to be fulfilled
for the DriveCond to be fulfilled.
– Equal defines if the fulfilled number must exactly match Level or if it can be equal and also
higher.
– Indication of blocked signals on PCC Bus forwarded to the consumer.

In the following example pump _561_LQ1_M1 or _561_LQ1_M2 must be running for the ball mill
_561_BM1_M1 to start/run. This precondition is a safety issue and therefore is configured as
Safety interlock (IC).
The run signals for both pumps are used, each as a sub condition. With Level = 1 the interlock
is ok as soon as 1 pump runs. Because Equal = false also a two pump running situation is ok.

10. PCC_Intlk

PCC_Intlk is a simple State or Summary Block for the PCC Bus. It acts both as Child with a sin-
gle PCC Interlock to a Drive or Group connected to the PCC Output as well as a PCC Parent to
Signals connected to its IO Variable. It is also possible to use the Block to add a single Inter-
lock Signal to PCC via the ExtIntlk Boolean Input.
– Blocking of the Interlock
– Interlock Delay for an overall Delay on the Interlock
– Ready Delay Time

11. PCC_Connect_2 (OBSOLETE)

The Function Block Type PCC_Connect_2 is used to
– assign a Basic Object to 2 consumers / groups
– overwrite the Warning / Failure state to the Basic Object if needed
This Block is Obsolete and should not be used in new Projects.
PCC Interlocks are not forwarded to the consumers. For the full PCC functionality,
PCC_Connect should be used as a direct replacement for PCC_Connect_2.

11.3. Operation
11.3.1. Faceplate
The Function Block contains one Graphic Element that links to all connected PCC Consumer /
Group Objects. As this Element is linked from the signals connected to the PCCOut Bus, it al-
lows to trace all connections in case a signal is connected to more than one parent.
