Application and Features
1.1
Application
The task to monitor and control the transportation network for energy to reach an economical operation control requests an ongoing penetration of the network down to the lowest levels. The increasing requirements to the availability of energy and their distribution and transportation also increases the demands on the control systems. Improved and new communication possibilities with a higher transmission bandwidth and new transmission media allows the telecontrol technology to realize these tasks. The RTU560 is required to be configurable to nearly all demands made on remote stations in networks for electricity, gas, oil, water or district heating.

The RTU560 is using one set of communication units and I/O boards for all kinds of applications - starting with a configuration with some I/O boards and one communication unit for a small pump station or ring main unit station over medium size stations for distribution up to large stations on transmission level with all kinds of extensions. Engineering the process signals of the RTU560 is done by means of only one tool 'RTUtil NT' for all sizes of stations. In the same way RTUtil NT also supports process signal routing from a small station on the lowest level up to the network control center (NCC) level, especially when the signals are routed via other RTU560 stations, operating as routers. This includes the conversion from a telecontrol protocol 'A' to another telecontrol protocol 'B' used on the next level. For example from DNP 3.0 to IEC 870-5104. At the end RTUtil NT generates all the files requested to run the RTU560 units. The files can be downloaded into the stations via the communication line or via INTRANET using WEB browser technology. In the first case the telecontrol protocol used must support file transfer (e.g. IEC 870-5-101 / 104).

1.2
Features
The telecontrol system RTU560 also supports the extended transmission possibilities. Beside the acquisition and processing of the directly connected station process signals, the telecontrol system RTU560 is designed for the link of serial communication routes within the station as well to the higher control level. This can be another RTU560 router station or a network control center. Within the station it is the connection of other existing additional control, protection or monitoring devices (Intelligent Electronic Devices = IED) via serial interfaces. The RTU560 concept allows the economical adaptation to the requested, different serial links by cascading the Communication and Processing Units (main CPUs) according to the number of needed interfaces. Essential features of the telecontrol system RTU560:
High functional scope for telecontrol applications Flexible configuration for small stations with few process data points up to large process stations with several thousand process data points Large expandability to connect serial communication interfaces in all directions Redundancy features for the communication subrack with central control boards and power supply Compact design Small number of different hardware units High availability Easy engineering of the single process station as well as for stations in a telecontrol network for the engineering and signal routing up to the network control level. Extended diagnostic features by WEB browser technology PLC Functions

Process data signals

Process data acquisition is done by means of the I/O board family already used and proven in the RTU200 and RTU232. In the RTU560 the total number of usable I/O boards is increased by running up to four peripheral bus segments in parallel. Two peripheral bus segments will be supported by one communication unit. This allows an overall directly and indirectly connected I/O capacity for the RTU560 of:
max. 4 peripheral bus segments max. 6 I/O subracks per peripheral bus segment max. 24 I/O subracks per RTU560 max. 24 x 19 = 456 different I/O boards overall capacity of 5000 direct and indirect connected process signal data points per RTU560
Within that range any number of different I/O signal types is possible. Their number may be limited by the addressing capacity of the telecontrol protocol used. This total number of 5000 I/O points also includes the process signals which are defined by connected IEDs and / or connected sub-RTUs. The RTU560 used as a router also has the task to support each directly and indirectly connected process signal to the network control level with the status and value. Therefore all signals shall be processed in one common process signal database.

Support of communication links

The key advantage of the RTU560 concept is the modular design of the serial communication links. It starts with one communication unit which includes already the capability for up to four serial links and ends up in a configuration with 2 communication subracks. The RTU560 is designed for the following communication capabilities:
max. 2 communication subracks each subrack with max. 8 communication units max. 8 host interfaces to NCC etc. max. 60 serial interfaces for / to: max. 4 peripheral bus segments sub-RTUs all kinds of IEDs

System Overview
2.1
System Concept
The RTU560 is structured into two main components:
The central communication component in the communication subrack or in one of the I/O subracks The I/O signal component in the I/O subracks
The communication subrack contains in addition to the power supplies the configured main CPU boards and optional a real-time clock board. The I/O subracks and the I/O boards have been taken over from the proven RTU232 system family. The I/O subracks are linked via the proven peripheral bus to the main CPU boards, which run the telecontrol application software for the directly connected I/O signals. The I/O signal concept is based on I/O boards with microcontrollers in order to preprocess the signals directly on the board.

2-1
System Overview
The software and hardware concepts are based on modularity. The software application tasks can be organized in such a way as to be distributed over different central CPU boards. This is possible due to an internal communication concept that keeps all CPU boards informed about the contents of the process data interface. A copy of the system database is available for each central CPU board. The internal communication system ensures that all process data are consistent. The different CPU boards run the communication tasks for the connected serial links. This procedure defines which and how many different communication links are running on one CPU board. System performance depends on the configuration of the CPU boards which allows a cost optimized or performance optimized configurations of the communication subrack.
2.2
Software structure
The high processing performance of the RTU560 Remote Terminal Unit is accomplished by the efficient distribution of the tasks to the communication and processing units (CMU) and the microcontrollers on the I/O boards. Each of the input/output boards has its own input/output microcontroller (IOC) which supports the basic input/output functions of the board. The CMUs have various tasks:
Communication with the network control center(s) Communication with subordinated devices Updating of the data base for the process signals, handling of the SCADA functions which are not performed by the I/O-boards
The different processors of a CMU (MPU and SLC) can work independently of each other and are decoupled from each other via shared memories. Different CMUs can handle different tasks independently and communicate with each other via the internal system bus. By this means optimal execution of the individual tasks is accomplished. The program system of the RTU560 remote terminal unit is of modular design and consists of the following program types:
Microcontroller programs Standard programs Application programs
The microcontroller programs of the boards are optimized to the components and for the defined functions. They are an integral part of the boards. The standard programs written in C programming language cover the programs for all telecontrol functions, for system monitoring, time management and for the handling of the process data base. The 32 bit operating system used in RTU560 is VxWorks (Wind River Systems). The PLC programs for the tasks of station automation functions are cyclically executed by the optionally installed PLC software.

I/O Bus system

The input/output boards are connected to one or two main CMUs by means of a bus system which consists of one to four serial I/O bus segments. The serial I/O buses connect the extension subracks to one ore more of the main CMUs. The transmission speed on the serial I/O buses is 19200 Bit/s. The serial RS-485 bus allows a maximum length of approx. 1000m in consideration of the electrical specifications and noise fields like equipotential bonding, EMC conditions etc. as they are described in the RS-485 standard. In configurations with decentralized extension subracks it will be advantageous to use fibre optic cables for the serial system bus to reduce inductive and capacitive interferences. As interface the fiber optic coupler board 23OK22 is used on both ends of the cable. Dependent on the type of the fiber optic cable distances of up to 2600 meters can be realized.

RTU560 Configuration Types

Depending on where the RTU560 is used, it is not always necessary to support multiple communication links. The RTU560 concept allows the configuration of two types of RTU.
The Standard RTU560A The Compact RTU560C
The RTU560C, which does not use the central communication subrack, allows a maximum of two main CMU boards to be plugged into a standard I/O subrack. The standard version is one main CMU board with one or two links to the NCC(s) or one NCC link and one link for IEDs. The residual part of the I/O subrack can be used for I/O boards. The Compact RTU560 also supports the full volume of I/O boards distributed over the I/O bus segments. If more communication lines are required, the RTU560A must be used. RTU560A built up by one or two central communication subracks with their full range of flexibility and configuration capabilities and I/O subracks for the I/O boards.

System Overview
2.5
Redundancy
The availability of a station is a top priority. RTU560 supports this demand by a redundancy concept with a different steps:
2.5.1
Redundant power supply in communication subracks.

It is possible to place two redundant power supplies in the central communication subrack. If one power supply fails, the second one takes over the complete supply of the communication subrack.
2.5.2
Redundant CMUs
It is possible to add redundant CMUs into an RTU560 communication subrack. It is possible to double all CMUs or only some CMUs. The redundant RTU560 is split into an active working part and a standby part. If the standby part detects a failure (internal operation error missing of a CMU board) of the active part it deactivates the active system and takes over the task of the active system. The now active system starts with initialization and update of the complete process information.

Communication
3.1
General
The practical handling of the different communication protocols running on one main CMU board is defined as follows:
Max. two different protocols to the NCC or to the sub-RTUs or IEDs e.g. IEC 870-5-101 to the NCC and IEC 870-5-103 to support protection relays Two peripheral bus segments with a maximum of 2x6 I/O subracks
With a maximum of sixteen CPU boards, the possibility is given for a total of 32 communication lines with different protocols. The internal process database contains all process objects. This includes the directly connected I/O signals via I/O boards and the process signals coming from the IEDs and from the sub-RTUs all the information from the process database can be provided for NCC communication. Examples of communication protocols provided with RTU560:
Host communication (HCI) interfaces towards the NCC or router RTUs

Host communication interfaces

The RTU560 allows the communication up to eight different NCCs by using the serial interfaces of 560SLI01 CMU or serial and Ethernet interfaces from the 560ETH01 CMU. The configuration of the interfaces as host and communication lines with their protocols is completely done in RTUtil NT. There are no hardware switches to configure the interfaces. For detailed information and protocol specific restrictions see the host communication interface of the protocol. The assignment of UART host protocols to the serial interfaces is totally free. There are no dependencies between the different protocols on one CMU. The only restriction is the number of communication protocols offered in one firmware package. Protocols not using UART are restricted to the interfaces CPA and CPB on the CMU 560SLI01 and 560ETH01. Ethernet and TCP/IP based protocols could only be used with the Ethernet interface on the 560ETH01 CMU.
Monitoring Direction
All active NCCs get any message that is created in the RTU560. Also any message that comes from a substation and could be translated between the protocols is sent to the activated NCCs. To avoid transmission of certain data points on certain HCIs, a filter can be set in the configuration for these data points. In Monitoring Direction the following RTU560 information types are translated into protocol specific telegrams:
SPI DPI STI BSI ITI
Single Point Information Double Point Information Step Position Information Bit String Information Integrated Totals
DMI Digital Measured Information AMI Analog Measured Information
RTU information qualifier (Blocked, Substituted, Not Topical Invalid) can translated into the protocol if supported.

Command Direction
Commands to the RTU560 are accepted by all central systems in the same way. There is no restriction to the number of different commands that can be handled at a time in the RTU560.

Sub-Device Communication Interface

The SCI supports various communication protocols. The protocol specific configuration parameters are described in additional documents. The configuration of the SCI and communication lines with their protocols is completely done in RTUtil NT. There are no hardware switches to configure the interfaces. The SCI can manage up to 32 devices per line. In a RTU560 it is possible to have up to 60 sub-lines. For detailed information and protocol specific restrictions see the Sub-Device communication interface of the protocol. The assignment of UART sub-protocols to the serial interfaces is totally free. There are no dependencies between the different protocols on one CMU. The only restriction is the number of communication protocols offered in one firmware package. Not all existing protocols can be combined on one CMU board. Only certain combinations of protocols are possible. Protocols not using UART are restricted to the interfaces CPA and CPB on the CMU 560SLI01 and 560ETH01. Ethernet and TCP/IP based protocols can only be used with the Ethernet interface on the 560ETH01 CMU.
In Monitoring Direction the protocol specific telegrams are translated into the following RTU560 information types.

RTUtil NT Structure
RTUtil NT enables the user to control the whole engineering process of an RTU based system. All configuration data is managed from RTUtil NT. To do so several functional concepts for data storage, structuring and presentation are needed. To meet the requirements the internal software structure of RTUtil NT is split up into different function parts as shown in the figure below.

General Data Structuring and View

The general view of the user on the engineering data is implemented on the basis of international Standard IEC 1346-1. This standard describes the structuring principles and reference designations for industrial systems, installations and equipment. In the user interface this standard is presented in trees showing the RTU from different points of view. To describe the whole process the view is split up into three trees. IEC 1346-1 defines how to split up a system (function-, product- and location-oriented structure). The user interface structure offers three trees to describe the system structure usually used for an RTU.
NetworkTree The NetworkTree shows the lines and protocols for routing the data points through the network.
SignalTree In the SignalTree the location and designation of signals are shown. The signal location describes the place of the data points in the primary process.
HardwareTree The HardwareTree presents the structure of an RTU with the levels cabinet, rack, board and the reference to the data points defined in SignalTree.
The structuring in trees provides a common presentation format and a general user interface of the RTU data and the environment.

General Tree Structure

The following example shows the implementation of the structuring principles according to IEC 1346-1. In the picture Network - RTU - Process the project views down to the RTU internal configuration are shown. This is only a small example of an RTU network. RTU 01 is the concentrator station in this network. The right side of the picture shows the electrical process (one bay in a station, with the double point indication Q0). This scenario will be built up in the three trees: NetworkTree, SignalTree, HardwareTree.

Figure 4-2: Network - RTU - Process
The root node of a tree is similar to the tree type (e. g. SignalTree, HardwareTree). The NetworkTree is the representation of the network structure. The concentrator RTU 01 is chosen as root node in the NetworkTree because the concentrator RTU is normally a unique starting point in an RTU station network. The hosts (central systems) are represented below the root RTU. In the SignalTree the electrical process is structured and the names of the single point indications are defined. The name for every data point is derived from the structure of the electrical process. Some nodes have different locations of presentation (references) in several trees. These nodes are the line and station nodes from the NetworkTree and the data point nodes from the SignalTree. The line and station nodes have references in the HardwareTree and in the NetworkTree. The data point nodes have references in the HardwareTree and in the SignalTree. The HardwareTree describes the internal structure of the station nodes (e. g. RTU 01). The RTU and Line node types in the HardwareTree are linked nodes from the NetworkTree. The double point indication Q0 in the electrical process in the SignalTree shall be linked with a binary input board in the HardwareTree.

Input / Output Boards

The connection to process signals is made by means of input and output boards. Each of the boards is equipped with its own microprocessor (EAP), which is configured with a 24k Byte RAM and a 32k Byte EPROM program memory. The processor executes extensive tests of the memory and the input/output hardware at start-up and during run-time. Faults or error conditions on the board are indicated by a red LED (ST) on the front panel. The monitoring logic with a watchdog timer controls the correct operation of the microprocessor.

Time Management on the I/O Boards

For the synchronization of their own timer all the I/O modules receive the current time with an accuracy of 300 microseconds from the central control unit via the serial RTU560 system bus (typically every 2 seconds). The I/O boards have a control loop which compensates the inaccuracy of the quartz crystal.

1KGT 150 447 V001 1
Basic checks and, cyclical processing functions requiring considerable computing capacity will already be carried out on the board reducing the burden of the communication unit. The board transmits relevant changes as events via the peripheral bus. The 8 differential inputs are not isolated from the RTU560 power supply. 23AE21 resolves unipolar or bipolar values into 4096 steps (12 bit plus sign) for 100 % of the measuring signal. The differential inputs are protected against static and dynamic over-voltages by a protection circuit. A low-pass filter suppresses non-line frequency ac disturbance. The AD converter, operating with the sigma-delta method scans with a higher resolution and has additional algorithms for a high suppression of line frequency and harmonic interference voltages. Even for a deviation of 10 % of the line frequency there is still a suppression of > 45 dB. The internal high resolution allows all measuring ranges (exception: 2 V DC (11 bit + sign)) to be scanned with the same resolution (12 bit + sign) on one board. A 9th channel is used for automatic zero calibration.

The binary output is made via relay contacts. Resistive loads of up to 60 W can be switched with output voltages between 24 and 60 V DC. The process relays to be switched have to be equipped with zero voltage diodes. The 16 outputs are combined into two groups. Each group of 8 outputs a common return. The groups are isolated from one another as well as from other logic. Commands to the process equipment can be output either directly or in conjunction with the board 23BA22 command output monitoring.

Binary Output Board 23BA22

The 23BA22 board is intended to be used in the Remote Terminal Unit RTU560. The 23BA22 board should be installed if the output circuit of an object command has to be checked before the actual command is given. The 23BA22 board executes an (1 out of n)-check. It checks that only one interposing relay will be activated in the output circuit. This is feasible only if all interposing relays connected to one check circuit have the same resistance value. The 23BA22 board allows to check two different interposing relay types by using two separated check circuits. The permissible tolerance range is defined by means of parameters. Up to 32 different relay types can be supervised by means of the 23BA22 boards in one remote terminal unit The 23BA22 board is functional and pin-compatible to the 23BA21 board. The essential additional tasks are:
Galvanic isolation of the check circuit Suppression of line frequency during measuring
Figure 5-18 shows the connection of a binary output board 23BA20 and a 23BA22 board in two-pole activation for the (1 out of n)-check. The check circuit for measuring the resistance of the relay coil is galvanic isolated against the electronic voltage and against the switching voltage (UD) of the interposing relays. This is done by means of a galvanic isolated DC/DC-converter and optocouplers. An auxiliary test voltage is not necessary. During measuring the 23BA22 board switches the respective check circuit (P1 or P2) two-pole and therefore separates both. In the (1 out of n)-check the 23BA22 board measures the resistance value in the output circuit and compares this value with the configured upper and lower limit values. If the resistance value is within the limits the selected interposing relay can be activated. The object command will be acknowledged positively. If the measured resistance value is outside the tolerance limits the 23BA22 blocks the output and indicates the error to the CMU (CMU = communication unit). The limits of the coil resistance for the interposing relay can be adjusted in steps of 10 in the range of 100 to 10 000 by means of parameters. Line frequency ripple voltages will be filtered. The direct activation of process relays on electrical apparatus (isolators, circuit-breakers) is possible by using an additional booster relay Figure 5-19.

Telecontrol Functions
6.1
General
As shown in Fig. 2-3 and Fig. 2-5 (refer to chapter 2) the communication units and the I/O boards share the processing of the telecontrol functions. The I/O boards take over the essential tasks of scanning and output and the communication unit the communication with the central systems as well as the organization and management of the process image in the data base. All time critical functions are concentrated on the I/O boards. The I/O boards signal process value or status changes as events. The I/O bus (IOC) of the communication unit detects and transmits the events to the communication unit (CMU) of the communication unit. To control the data flow, each I/O board has a FIFO buffer for the temporarily storage of up to 50 events. All events are time stamped. Commands to the I/O boards are checked for plausibility etc. and the outputs to the output channels will then be handled by the output boards autonomously. The communication unit handles those telecontrol functions, which overlap the I/O-boards (e.g. (1-out-of-n) check). The telecontrol functions are divided in:
Monitoring direction ! Indication processing ! Analog measured value processing ! Digital measured value processing ! Incremented total ! Bitstring input value processing
Command direction ! Object command output ! Regulation command output ! Setpoint message output ! Bitstring output
In Figure 6-1 the distribution of the tasks among the I/O boards and the central control unit is shown by means of the example of indication processing.

Indication Processing
There are two types of indications:
Single point input (SPI) Double point input (DPI)
Figure 6-2 shows the signal definition for SPI and DPI. Double indications are represented by two sequential bits within a 23BE21 board. The normal state of a DPI is an antivalent bit combination (10 or 01). The two intermediate positions 11 or 00 are handled with no difference within the RTU560. An intermediate state is given during the runtime of a unit from one position to the other (e.g. an isolator switching from OFF to ON).

an indication board consisting of max. 16 bit SPI and DPI can be mixed. But a DPI can start on an odd bit-position only. A 23BE21 board it is possible to mix any type of binary inputs. E.g. inputs not assigned to DPI or SPI may be configured as pulse counter indications as, digital measured values on bit-string inputs. Digital measured values and bit-string inputs must be configured such to start with bit position 1.

Digital Measured Value Processing

There are two types of digital measured values (DMV):
Digital measured input value (DMI) Step position input value (STI)
The RTU560 can handle different bit patterns to read them and convert them into a digital measured value :
8 bit digital measured value (DMI8) 16 bit digital measured value (DMI16) 8 bit step position value (STI)
The RTU can handle conversions for: binary data (BIN) binary coded decimals (BCD) Gray code (GRAY)
The maximum length of a digital measured value is the 16-bit word of (= one 23BE21 board). Double word values (23 bit) are not supported.

Integrated Total Processing

Integrated Total Value Types

There are two types of integrated total values (ITI) defined in the RTU560:
End of period reading counters (EPR) Intermediate reading counters (IR)
Both types have only one source and the IR is only an intermediate value of the corresponding EPR. That means there is one ITI which is transmitted periodically in fixed periods.
Counts
Integrated total values with reset to zero at end of period The IR reading cycle must be 1/n of end of period time e.g.: if period = 60 minutes and n = 5 the IR cycle = 12 min

Bitstring Input Value Processing

The RTU560 can handle bit patterns to read them and convert them into a bitstring input value (BSI):
8 bit bitstring (BSI8) 16 bit bitstring (BSI16)
The maximum length of a bitstring is the 16-bit word of (= one 23BE21 board). Double word values are not supported.
6.6.1
Bitstring Value Presentation

Bitstring input values are transparently mapped into 32-bit BSI messages of the internal communication. If an eight-bit pattern is selected the residual 8 bits of the 23BE21 board can be used for another bitstring value, digital measured value, integrated total values or indications.

Command Direction
Signal outputs to the process and the sequential control of the operational equipment are processed and executed by the command processing function. The following command types are covered by RTU560:
Object commands single / double commands) Regulation commands (double commands) Setpoint messages (analog / digital) Bitstring output command
Only one command can be processed and output at the same time. The communication unit accepts and checks the received command telegrams from the central system and releases them for execution if the check has been positive. Depending on the command type the central control unit processes the commands like data base update or checks and if the tests are positive, it prepares the command-specific output procedures. Then the command is transmitted to the output board via the I/O bus. Depending on the command type the command is released to the process by the binary output board 23BA20 or the analog output board 23AA20. Moreover the output board carries out some checks before output. The RTU560 acknowledges commands to the central system within a time window of approx. 1.5 seconds. During that time the central control unit checks the command, transmits it to the output board and expects a return information that the command is accepted and executed or initiated. If an error has occurred a negative acknowledgement will be sent to the central system. The normal case of course is a positive acknowledgement. In most cases commands are subject to a very sophisticated security philosophy depending on most critical process applications. For this reason the RTU560 terminal unit executes extensive test and security procedures for each command to be processed:
Each board carries out self-tests for hardware faults Each command telegram received is checked for plausibility by comparison with the configured data in the database Each command is tested in the binary output board module 23BA20 by reading back the relay register A (1-out-of-n) check of the output relays and comparison with bit pattern is made carried out on the output board module 23BA20 The switching voltage for the output relays is monitored before and during the output of the command The command output pulse duration is monitored in the central control unit and on the output board
1KGT 150 447 V001 1
6-13
The output relays on the output board module 23BA20 are not switched before successful completion of the tests and enabling. If an error is detected during the tests the command output will be aborted. This is also indicated directly on the output board module by the means of an LED. For additional monitoring of the process output circuit for object commands, the command output monitoring board 23BA22 can be used, which allows a (1-out-of-n) check of the interposing relay.
6.7.1
Object Commands
This command type is used for the switching commands, e.g. for power circuit breakers or isolators. Object commands are always configured as impulse double commands with two independent output relays (ON / OFF). The following modes of operation are possible:
Command output without (1-out-of-n) check ! 1-pole relay interfacing ! 2-pole relay interfacing
Command output with (1-out-of-n) check ! 1.5-pole relay interfacing ! 2-pole relay interfacing
The commands are output to the process via the relay contacts of the binary output board 23BA20. The following functions are possible:
allows additional (1-out-of-n) check (command supervision) 1.5-pole and two-pole switching allows two step commands (Select before operate SBO sequence) allows command termination by a response indication allows persistent output

Single Object Command Output

A single command has only one output relay. It can be configured as pulse ON or OFF command or as persistent output. Single object commands can be wired with one relay contact per command (23BA20: 1pole) or with two relay contacts per command (23BA20: 2-pole). Single object commands are pulse outputs.The pulse duration is specified by the parameter Command pulse length per command (0.1 ... 25.5 sec.). Only the configured direction is used for pulse output. The direction not configured is ignored.

Double Object Command Output

A double command has two independent output relays:
one relay for ON direction one relay for OFF direction
Double object commands can be wired with one relay contact per command (23BA20: 1pole) or with two relay contacts per command (23BA20: 2-pole). Double object commands can be pulse outputs. The pulse duration is specified by the parameter Command pulse length per command. Only one channel ON or OFF can be active at the same time. The two relays occupy two consecutive bits within a 23BA20 output board. The ON-relay is always assigned to the odd channel and the OFF-relay to the even channel.

(1-out-of-n) Check
The (1-out-of-n) check detects errors in the external circuit like short circuits, open circuits or doubled relays which prevent the output of the command. After receipt and successful check of an object command by the communication unit and the output board module the following steps will be executed before final command release:
The (1-out-of-n) check on the command output monitoring board 23BA22 is activated. The resistance of the interposing relay in the switched output circuit is measured and compared with the parameterised upper and lower limits. If the resistance is within the limits the object command output to the selected equipment is will be activated via the binary output board. The command output pulse timer is started, pulse duration is monitored, and the command output is deactivated by response indication or when the pulse time has elapsed. If the test conditions during the checks are not fulfilled the command will be cancelled.
In normal applications only one command output monitoring board 23BA22 is needed for the (1-out-of-n) check in a RTU station. In case of inserting interposing relays with different resistance values, two independent check circuits can be driven by the 23BA22 board, if the auxiliary test voltage is generated by a separate isolated voltage source. Concerning these conditions it is possible to include a maximum of 16 command output monitoring boards 23BA22 in a RTU560 remote terminal unit.

6.7.3.3
Select Before Operate Sequence (IEC 60870-4)

Before transmitting the final object in this operating mode, the central system transmits a select command for this equipment. The communication unit in the RTU560 makes a prior check within the actual database, whether the selected channel is configured, is not activated and no error is present. If the tests are successfully completed, then the relevant channel is designated as being selected, an acknowledged is generated for the selected command and transmitted to the central system. To process the command and activate the command output an additional execute object command has to be sent from the central system within a time span of approx. 30 seconds. If the RTU560 does not receive an execute command then the selection of the object is will be deactivated. The following steps are executed on receipt of a valid execute object command:
The object number is compared with the object number of the previously received selected command. Command output processing on the binary output board 23BA20 is activated and executed (eventually with (1-out-of-n) check).
If any of the tests has a negative result the command processing will be aborted, the object selection will be reset and a negative acknowledge will be transmitted to the central system.

The output pulse duration of a regulation command can be expanded if the same command is received within the output pulse time and can be sent to the output board before the time has elapsed. 23BA20 starts the timer again. An output pulse can also be shortened by a new command with DEACTIVATION flag. If a DEACTIVATION command is received the running regulation command will be stopped immediately.

Setpoint Messages
A setpoint message is used for the output of setpoints as control variables in control loops. Setpoint messages can be specified as digital or analog output values. Analog setpoint values are output via the 23AA20 analog output board and for digital setpoint values via the 23BA20 binary output board. The RTU560 outputs a strobe pulse in addition to the setpoint value for a the clear identification of a new value. The output value is validated with the strobe pulse. The resolution of the analog setpoint message is 12 bits plus sign (with 23AA20). Digital setpoint message outputs are 8 or 16 bits wide.

Bitstring Output
A bitstring output (BSO) is a persistent output on a 23BA20. The following types are possible:
Bitstring output 1 bit (BSO1) Bitstring output 2 bit (BSO2) Bitstring output 8 bit (BSO8) Bitstring output 16 bit (BSO16)
Bitstring output values are transparently mapped 23BA20 output channels. The output value is switched on the output board and stays stable until a new value overwrites the existing one. The maximum length of a digital measured value is 16-bit word (= one 23BA20 board). Double word values are not supported.

RTU560 Time Synchronization
6.10.1
Time Synchronization Principle

RTU560 provides a general time base that may be synchronized in three different modes to be configured:
a) Clock Synchronization Command (CS Command) Synchronized by a (cyclic) time message from
b) CS Command & external minute pulse Synchronized by a cyclic message via a host communication interface plus an external minute pulse wired to the TSI (Time Synch. Input) of the RTU560
c) Radio Clock Synchronized to the GPS or DCF 77 standard (middle Europe only)
The RTU560 MASTER CMU decides during start-up - by reading the GCD configuration what kind of time synchronization is configured. It synchronizes the RTU time to the provided synchronization mode and acts as the Time Master. The Time Master CMU keeps the time information for the entire RTU. It generates a controlled 10 KHz clock and the internal TSO minute pulse which are needed by all time slaves and the I/O master. It distributes the absolute time information in time message telegrams to the time slaves and the I/O master.

Master CMU Time regulation concept for Master CMU and I/O Controller
Figure 6-13:
Principle of time synchronization in RTU560
Differences between the internal time and the received time on the time master are regulated by scaling predivider registers. This method allows a soft regulation of time differences and a long-time correction of crystal clock errors. The time slave CMUs are hard coupled with the 10 kHz clock and the TSO generated by the Time Master. They cyclically receive a time message by the Time Master via Internal Communication and synchronize their time accordingly. The I/O master (IOM) - on every CMU - is hard coupled with the 10 kHz clock and the TSO generated by the time master. It cyclically receives a time message by from the MPU via the DPRAM interface and synchronizes its time accordingly. The IOM again transmits a time synchronization instruction (broadcast) cyclically to all I/O controllers (IOC) on the I/O boards via I/O bus (typically every 2 seconds). The IOCs independently regulate deviations between their internal current time and the cyclic synchronization instructions. All I/O boards are time synchronized by the I/O with a resolution of 100s and accuracy of 0.3ms.

6.10.2
Time Synchronization via the Telecontrol Line

For synchronization via the telecontrol line the central system transmits a time synchronization instruction cyclically to the RTU560 remote terminal units (Time message). Discrepancies between the time received in the time message and the local RTU560 system time are continuously compensated by the central control unit. If the discrepancy is greater than a fixed predefined tolerance the RTU560 system time will be set immediately. This control routine enables the RTU560 to correct the quartz drift of the internal system clock. Using this control mechanism the highly accurate time is attained in the terminal unit after about 1-2 hours following start-up. The long-term accuracy will reach up to 5 ms the TSI telegram is received regularly. According to IEC 60870-4 the time resolution corresponds to the time resolution class TR3 (<10 ms).
6.10.3
Time Synchronization by Means of DCF 77 / GPS Receiver

If one of the real time clocks 23RTC01 or 23RTC02 is configured in the RTU560 remote terminal unit, it is the master for of time synchronization by using its minute pulse. The real time clock DCF77, the 23RTC01 receives them from the GPS. The exact time synchronization is carried out with the minute pulse of the 23RTC01 board or the 23RTC02 board. The control mechanisms are then applied, in the same way, as for synchronization via the telecontrol line. The use of the 23RTC02 real time clock is limited to Central Europe because only in this region the signals of the long wave transmitter DCF77 can be received. For world-wide use the 23RTC01 real time clock is available.
6.10.4
Time Synchronization by Means of an External Minute Pulse

It is also possible to synchronize the RTU560 time with an external minute pulse derived from a local clock. In this case the system time has to be set by the time message and is synchronized by the external minute pulse.

PLC Development System

The RTU 560 PLC Development System is a standard programming and runtime system for IEC 1131-3 designed PLCs. It is based on the standard IEC 1131-3. RTU560 PLC consists of the ProConOS runtime system and the MULTIPROG wt programming system. ProConOS (Programmable Controller Operating System) is an efficient PLC runtime system for complex control applications. It has been especially designed for IEC 1131 and includes nearly the full range of IEC 1131 features. ProConOS is delivered in conjunction with the IEC 1131-3 programming system MULTIPROG wt. MULTIPROG wt allows an easy programming in function block diagram FBD and instruction list IL under Windows NT. The development procedure of a PLC program with MULTIPROG wt and the control of a process with ProConOS is shown in the following figures:

6.11.1
Components of the Development System

The PLC program is first programmed in MULTIPROG wt and then it is downloaded to RTU 560 where it is stored in the ProConOS memory. After this the PLC can be started. The process signals are transmitted via the local I/O or distributed router and sub RTUs to ProConOS. ProConOS stores the input signals coming from the process in its memory. During the working cycle the PLC program calculates the output signals on the base of the input signals. The output signals are transmitted from the ProConOS memory to the local I/O or distributed router and sub RTUs. The debug kernel of ProConOS offers multiple debug functions such as overwriting and forcing variables, setting breakpoints, variable and address status with power flow. Debugging is normally done while the process is running. Nevertheless programming errors can also be corrected when the process is stopped by setting breakpoints. All debug operations are executed via the MULTIPROG wt user interface. In MULTIPROG wt the compilation process leaves the program in a PLC intermediate code. The ProConOS compiler translates the PLC intermediate code into a machineexecutable code.

The programming system offers features for the different development phases of a PLC application:
Edit Compile Debug Print
The programming system is based on a windows technology providing comfortable handling using zooming scrolling, customizable toolbars, drag & drop operations, a shortcut manager and movable windows. The system especially allows the handling of several configurations and resources within one project, including libraries and disposes of a powerful debug system. Projects are displayed and can be edited using a comfortable project tree editor in order to make the complexity of the IEC 1131-3 structure as simple and transparent as possible. The project tree editor allows the easy insertion and editing of program organization units (POUs), data types, libraries and configuration elements. The programming system consists of a PLC independent kernel for programming in the IEC programming languages, IL (textual language) and FBD (graphical language). Each editor provides an Edit Wizard for the fast and easy insertion of pre-edited keywords, statements, operators, functions and function blocks.

LEDs, Alarm and Warning

RTU560 supports signalization to report its error state. There are three different states: OK / Warning / Alarm
7.3.1
LED Signalling
The CMU alarm and warning conditions are caused by receiving and evaluating system messages. The signalling on a CMU is as follows: OK: Warning: Alarm: ERR LED is off ERR LED is flashing (ca. 1 Hz) ERR LED is on
7.3.2
RTU560 Alarm and Warning Relays

The error state of any CMU in RTU560 is reported to the CMU with administration mode MASTER which evaluates a RTU560 sum state. The RTU560 error state is signalized via a Board Connection Unit (560BCU01 /02 /03) device as follows: OK: Warning: Alarm: All relays contacts off Warning relays on Warning relays on Alarm relays on
The MASTER CPU cyclically refreshes the watchdog register of the BCU device to enable RTU560 to activate the alarm relays in case of a MASTER CMU error after 30 s.
7.3.3
LED Indications
All RTU560 boards have LEDs to indicate errors or operating modes. These LEDs allow a general visual check of the overall situation of the RTU560
