Automatic contribution to grid frequency control
Integration of the requirements of AGC (automatic generator control)
Safe shutdown of the units/ power plant block. Full automatic shutdown
sequences shall also be provided for all plant units and auxiliary
equipment including unloading, breaker opening and shutdown
The DCS system shall be applied as a homogeneous solution, providing the
necessary control means basically for the whole plant. However, depending
on the kind of the process hardware it should be allowed using package
controls for the gas turbines and for the control (governing) and protection
system of the steam turbines. In any case, the variety of the main control
systems in the Plant shall be limited to the minimum, i.e. the DCS type shall
follow either the type of the BPST/CEST or of the GTG control system. The
main controller of the GT, BPST/CEST, HRSG should be part of the DCS
and directly interfaced without gateways. This shall be a proven solution for
similar combined cycle power and desalination plants.
The BMS (Burner Management System) of HRSGs as a certified fail-safe
system shall be part of the DCS.
Interfacing with package control systems shall use standard interfaces and
protocols. However protection signals shall be connected hard-wired in

(see Annex P-C13-4)
1.2
1.2.1
Operation and control philosophy
General
The plant will be designed for base load operation, however, it shall be
possible to achieve a considerable turndown of power generation whilst
maintaining to full water production. This means, for the power and steam
generation units, in addition to base load operation, automatic start-up and
shut-down functions are also required for the on-line regulation of Power
and Desalination Plant.
Although part load operation of the desalination units will be infrequent, the
units shall be capable of unrestricted operation between 60% and 100%.
During the normal on-line operation of the plant, the main operatorfunctions, as carried out from the Central Control Room (CCR), shall be
those of supervision and selection of the appropriate pattern of running plant
to meet the electrical load and steam demand targets with optimum fuel
economy, generation and production security within any operational plant
constraints.

The essential plant operational management functions of starting up,

shutting down and load demand setting of the power and steam production
units shall remain directly under the operators control whilst the on line
regulation of the plant components (e.g. turbines, boilers, etc.) shall be fully
automated.
The automation shall meet the following objectives:
consistent start-up and shut-down of the plant under all operational
conditions;
to achieve minimum run up and loading times consistent with pre-set
thermal stress limits;
to meet the request of block control and plant master control
to meet plant output demand set by the load dispatcher;
to minimize fuel consumption during start-up, shut-down and normal online operational cycle;
to maximize plant life expectancy;
to simplify operation
The essential common plant systems (e.g. boiler feed, fuel, cooling water,
etc.) shall be automated to leave the overall control co-ordination of these
areas in the hands of the operator to ensure maximum flexibility of
operation.
The control system shall be designed so, that the plant can be safely
operated with a minimum number of operators.
A plant management system (PMS) shall allow access to all information of
the DCS and other related control, diagnostic and monitoring systems for
the shift supervisor, management like superintendent and operators.
1.2.2
Control centers
The control system shall be so designed, that full control and supervision of
the complete Power and Desalination Plant (power/ steam generation and
water production) shall be possible from a main CCR. The CCR shall be the
operational focus for the whole Power and Desalination Plant from where
all major plant items such as the GTGs, HRSGs, supplementary firing, STG,
thermal desalination units, RO and auxiliary systems like gas reducing
stations, feedwater, fuel oil system, electrical system etc. shall be capable of
being started, on-line regulated and shut-down.
The design, engineering and layout of the whole Central Control Room,
including the portion delivered by Package D with operator workstations,
printers and large screen device shall be carried out in the Package P
scope and shall be sub-contracted to a specialized company, which shall

Subject:

make the design, interior architecture, lighting, color, material and furniture
according to the state-of-art of the latest technology in CCR design
worldwide and shall comply with the international ergonomic standards.
It shall also be considered in the design that the general overall process
information to be displayed on the large screen monitors shall be visible to
all persons.
The interior design and execution of the CCR is fully under the scope of
work of Package P Contractor and the proposed specialized SubContractor shall be submitted with all qualification documents for
Employer/ Engineers approval.
In addition, there shall be a number of Local Electronic Rooms (LERs)
located in the main plant areas as follows:
each GT (adjacent to relevant GT unit)

HRSG;
STG
desalination units;
RO plant
Seawater Intake.
Fuel gas system
Fuel oil system
Compressed air system
Blending Plant and Potable Water System

These LERs shall serve for the accommodation of the control cabinets of the
DCS and PLC.
The LERs of each GTG shall be equipped with one Local Operator Station
(LOS). During normal operation the LERs (GTGs) shall be unmanned.
These LERs shall only be used during first start-up, emergency situation
and during maintenance. However, all control and supervisory facilities
available in the CCR shall, in general, be provided in the LER of GTG to
ensure that there is always a full back-up control facility in the event of a
major failure within the CCR area. Therefore, each GTG shall be provided

equipment.
Each piece of vital equipment such as GTGs, HRSGs, ST, etc. shall be
provided with its own protection system that is approved for the application
by official authorities to the approval of the Engineer. These systems shall
bring the plant equipment in a safe status in case of major or catastrophic

The design of the DCS shall conform to the state of the art, and shall already
have been proven in at least three other similar plants (combined cycle
power and high pride desalination plants) for more then three years. For all
control, instrumentation and monitoring systems the latest versions of
proven hardware, firmware and software modules, which are available on
the date of shipping, shall be supplied. This is subject to the approval of the
Engineer. However, prototype equipment will not be accepted.
Only high quality systems from reputable suppliers preferably with
established local back-up for maintenance and after-sales technical and
spares supports shall be offered.
For the system offered, a guarantee shall be given that spare parts will still
be available at least 15 years after commissioning of the plant, and that pincompatibility of modules shall be maintained over this period.
The system shall be designed to allow an easy extension in case of
subsequent modifications on the controls and the associated signal
processing equipment for hardware and software.
As the process of the power plant is divided into sub-processes performing
the functions in their areas largely independently, the same division of
functions shall also be maintained in the DCS.
The DCS system shall achieve the functions of data acquisition, signal
conditioning, closed loop control, open loop control, calculation, alarm
processing and annunciation, sequence of event recording, historical and
real time trend recording, graphic display of process and communication
with other devices/systems. All equipment shall be synchronized by the
master clock system.
Electrical protection and process protection shall be realized in the I&C
system.
The architecture of the DCS shall accommodate both functional and
physical distribution of the hardware and the software throughout the site
while allowing system wide access to the distributed data. It shall be
possible to display, operate and control any equipment/ system of the plant
from any operator station.
System configuration shall be simple and flexible with regard to reconfiguration of loop connection and display formats to suit changes in
operational requirements. System software security, including data base
configuration, controller loop tuning parameters shall be accessible by a
access security system like finger print reader, keycards with PIN, password

1.4.4.2
Availability and redundancy

The highest demands are placed on the control, instrumentation and
monitoring equipment with regard to availability, plant safety and
reliability. No common single point of failure must exist in the systems. All
vital system functions that can affect large part of the plant operation shall
be duplicated with automatic bumpless/smooth switch over and fault
reporting and diagnostic facilities. Control system signals shall be dual
redundant and protection systems shall be triple redundant. A single fault
shall not cause a trip or loss of performance and shall not cause loss of the
protection system. The redundancy shall be complete including the
processors, interfacing modules, power supply modules, station bus etc.
The data highway system shall be single fault tolerant and separated for the
different units of the plant (see Annex P-C13-1). One failure in the data
highways shall not reduce the availability of any of the system components
or degrade system performance. Failure recovery shall be smooth, bumpless
and automatic. Connection of additional equipment shall be possible on line
without disrupting operation. Any data communication failure shall not

The power supply sources and configuration for all the DCS equipment and
process stations shall be dual-redundant. However, in case of total power
interruption for the control system the DCS shall:
set all outputs (analogue or digital) to a programmed fail safe position
retain the system (control) configuration or execute an automatic restart
(reload) without operators intervention while maintaining the fail-safe
status on all outputs. Control shall be initiated by the operator (all
controllers shall be manual and all sequences, motors etc. stopped unless
otherwise specified).
In case of major or catastrophic failure of the DCS, a safe shut-down of the
plant must be guarantied. To fulfill this requirement the fail safe concept
(normally energized principle) will be used and plant protection equipment
will be fed from DC battery systems and/ or UPS as appropriate.
The redundant I/O or automation processors (CPU) shall be installed in
different rack and shall be supplied by different power supply. The I/O
modules used for control and protection shall be designed in redundant
hardware.
Distributed installation should be taken into consideration when assigning
the hardware to the process plant components. The system shall be
structured to reflect the redundancy provisions of the Plant so that no single
fault within the system will cause an operational disturbance or spurious
operation or make a standby plant unavailable. This means among others
that control functions of redundant equipment should not be installed in the
same hardware module or rack.
The possibilities of the redundant design shall be taken into account when
planning the system architecture. It is essential that the following parts be in
redundant design, but not limited to:
central modules whose failure would result in the loss of extensive or
critical functions;
the DCS communication system;
the DCS process control station modules and components;
components for operation and monitoring (workstations);
power supply;
any other element a failure of which will disable large portion of the
plant or create an unsafe operating condition.
The I/O modules in the DCS process control station shall be provided
redundant as follows:
Control system signals shall be dual redundant and protection system
signals shall be triple redundant.

regardless of the redundancy in the field equipment/devices.
All analogue and binary input modules shall be redundant following the
redundancy in the field equipment/devices such that each of the
redundant field equipment/device shall be connected to a separate
module and rack.
If the input signal is sourced from a single equipment/device, which is
important for the reliability and availability of the unit/system, it shall
then be connected to redundant input modules or shall be multiplied and
connected to two separate input modules if the DCS does not support
redundancy in the input modules as an inherent characteristic of the
system.
As far as the system and the components are concerned internal safe design
shall be applied. It means that no single failure of system elements, on-line
change of I/O modules and interface modules or external influences (shortcircuits, wire break, noises, etc.) will cause erroneous operation or
deterioration on any hardware or software system. The circuitry shall be
protected against interactions between modules and systems.
No single control system fault shall directly cause any of the following
conditions:
complete loss of generation from one GTG/HRSG/STG or desalination
unit;
loss of communication between the HMI in the CCR and the plant
control system such that safe shut down and on-line operation cannot be
maintained from the CCR.
Special precautions shall be taken to provide maximum reliability for
"Vital" control loops whose failure could result in major financial losses or
threaten human life. These measures shall be implemented as 2 out of 3
voting (including primary elements) in redundant processor units or as a
redundant process interface.
In case of a hardware failure within the automatic controls, the
corresponding process station shall be automatically switched-over to the
redundant unit and shall not degrade the system performance or cause any
operational disturbance. Operating station is not automatically switchedover.
In addition to the above measures, for areas of the plant in which proper and
reliable functioning of measurements and process control equipment is
essential for the prevention of human injury or death, fail-safe and typeapproved systems are employed.

conditions
For this reason jump conditions shall be foreseen. Before entering in the
step the sequence logic shall check the status of the jump condition. If the
jump conditions are fulfilled the respective step commands will not be

of a drive control module as the standard interface between the DCS and the
switchgear. Drive control in the I/O level of the DCS shall be utilized for
drive control equipment such as motors, pumps, motorized valve, solenoid
valve, and actuators etc.
To this module all orders i.e. from the operator station via the keyboard,
step signals of the control sequences, interlocks or protection as well as all
check-back signals of the drive or switchgear shall be connected. After the
processing of these signals the control module shall issue the order to the

The Contractor shall describe in his offer the hardware and software
modules he intends to use for the drive control.
Drive control modules shall meet the following minimum requirements:
inputs for hardwired manual, automatic and interlock signals. Protection
signals shall have priority over other commands. If activated they shall
block the ON/OFF commands up to acknowledgment. There shall be a
visual display of this blocking action and it shall be capable of
acknowledgment. In cases where it is necessary, for safety reasons, to
provide a local emergency stop push-button, the operation of this pushbutton shall have the same effect as the operation of other protection
devices
dedicated outputs for ON and for OFF commands
in the event of on/off command arising simultaneously or commands
repeating alternately, provisions must be made to lock out these
commands
stop command of the actuator upon triggering of the stroke or torque
limit switch
signaling of drive position and operation status (e.g. local operation)
selection of local or remote operation mode
monitoring of any changes in status not brought about by the drive
control module

maximum of four drives control shall be implemented in each I/O

module
In the event of any tripping or failure, a group signal must be passed via the
annunciation equipment and the fault status must be displayed individually
for each drive in the appropriate operation display on the operator station.
In addition to the control via the VDUs it shall be possible (if necessary by
process requirements or requests of norms/regulations) to provide additional
local start/stop push-buttons. Local push-buttons shall be connected to the
respective drive control module in order to ensure that the same starting
conditions are achieved before an item of plant can be started from either
local or remote position. For this case on/off or open/closed shall be
indicated at the control place, locally.
The local controls shall act only if selected by a local/remote key on the
local control point. The local/remote signal shall be sent to the drive control
where the selection of the control mode shall be processed. If local
operation is selected, it shall be displayed on the VDU in the CCR and no
operation from other place shall be possible. The command from the
emergency stop push-button of the local control point shall be transmitted
directly to the switchgear.
For unidirectional motor drives (pumps, fans) the issued command shall be
an impulse (e.g. reset by switchgear feedback signal) which shall be
memorized in the switchgear by latching, so that the interposing relays shall
not be permanently energized.
The control command shall be reset by stroke end or by torque switches for
reversing drives (actuators for valves, dampers). Drives/actuators with
intermediate positions shall be designed either with a stop command or for
inching operation.
The interposing relays shall be housed in the motor control centers of the
switchgear and are to be considered as part of the open loop control system.
Solenoid valves that do not exceed the drive control module power limit
may be energized directly from the drive control module.
Individual controls of reversing drives shall be so designed that upon
withdrawing of the control cable plug connector the drive actuator will stop
and it will not be possible to set it in motion.
The control commands from the drive control module to the switchgear
shall be transmitted to the switchgear through two interposing relays at 24 V
DC, one for the ON and one for the OFF command. The coils of the
interposing relays shall be connected with free wheeling diodes.

Protection and safety interlocks

To protect individual units or parts of the plant, interlocks are to be formed
in accordance with process criteria, which can be either active or passive
depending on their functions.
Active interlocks shall automatically disconnect units or parts of the plant
before they reach a critical operating condition or shall start certain units
(e.g. stand-by) in order to avoid a critical operating condition. In addition,
such dangerous conditions must be immediately indicated to the operating
personnel by means of an alarm.
Passive interlocks are intended to prevent operational errors or wrong
commands from being carried out in the event of selective faults in the
automatic control.
Active and passive interlocks must not be capable of being switched off
operationally from the control room. All protections have to work fully
automatically and independent of the operator and always have to be
effective for all procedures (manual, partial automatic, fully automatic). All
protections and interlock signals shall be implemented in hard-wired.
After a stop or close action by protection, the restart of the equipment shall
be possible only after the fault is rectified and the protection signal is reset.
Simple cancellation of protection signal by start command shall not be
possible. The protection action and the operator reset shall be recorded by
the DCS with real time stamping.
An evaluation to determine the appropriate Independent Protection Layers
(IPL) to control hazards is necessary. Safety Instrumented Systems are
intended to provide protection for people, property and the environment
against deviations in the processes. IEC 61508, IEC 61511 shall be followed
to determine, design, and build IPLs and especially the Safety Instrumented
Systems.
Every safety related loop has to be verified according to the standard IEC
61508, IEC 61511 that the requested and necessary Safety Integrity Level
(SIL) is fulfilled for the individual loop. The Contractor has to assess all
safety related loops to ensure compliance with the related requirements and
has to submit the report of these studies to the client.

Regardless of its source, a configurable priority should be able to be

allocated to an alarm. For example, priorities could include:
shut-down safety alarms or fire alarms
vital alarms (abnormal process conditions which the operator may be

capability. In the case of an avalanche of alarms, the system should be able
to discriminate between them by time and date in the order of their
occurrence.
The time resolution of the SER function shall be 1 millisecond, i.e. if the
second event occurs 1 milliseconds after the first event, then the equipment
shall be capable of resolving the two events.
If alarms transmitted from other control systems (e.g. package systems) to
the DCS via a serial links are processed in the SER then these alarms have
to be transmitted with the corresponding time tag and the clocks of the two

fulfilled then the processing of these signals in the SER is not allowed. In
this case the important alarms from the package control systems shall be
hardwired to the DCS.
The most important requirement for the SER function is that in case of plant
upsets correct time information shall be available for all signals processed in
the SER and that all signals of the plant which can trigger plant upsets shall

expected that most faults will be quickly repaired by simple replacement of
a card or module. The diagnostic display should clearly identify the faulty
component, the nature of the fault and the component location.
If the required diagnostic functions/displays are not available in the
engineering station than separate diagnostic hardware/software within the
DCS shall be offered.
Remote accessibility shall be possible via DSL to allow the specialist for
example to troubleshoot all the DCS components for routine maintenance or
system repair or configuration.

shall be provided. This shall include the start-up and normal feed regulation,
the venting and draining of the steam lines via the remotely controlled drain
and vents as well as the opening and closing of the boiler main stop and

stress shall be monitored. The starting sequence shall consider these values
to achieve minimum run up and loading times consistent with preset thermal
stress limits.
The following closed loop controls shall be supplied as a minimum.
Load Control
For each HRSG auxiliary firing facilities shall be provided, designed to
allow steam conditions to be maintain over the whole gas turbine load

the GTG exhaust gas bypass damper, depending on the load requirements of
the boiler. This mode of operation is however, only possible as long as the
waste energy supplied from the GTG is higher than the requested boiler
load. In this case part of the GTG exhaust gas, which corresponds to the
energy surplus, will be fed to the stack. The mechanical construction of the
damper must ensure, that there is always sufficient opening for the exhaust

level at the desired setting by controlling the position of the 30% duty
feedwater regulating control valve in response to deviations in drum water
level. Above 30% load the water flow shall be under the control of 3
element system whereby the feedwater flow is controlled to match the steam
flow requirements, whilst taking into account deviations of the drum water
level from the desired setting. 3 element control shall be performed by one

4. Generator Rejection Scheme

4.1
General
This specification covers the required Generator Rejection Scheme (GRS)
and associated equipment for the Power plant Package P according to the
"General Technical Requirements", Part P-B03, according the Inspection
and Testing Part P-A5.
GRS pertains to the Special Protection Schemes class. The present
specification defines the functional and overall performance requirements;
however the Tenderer is encouraged to propose if deemed necessary
additions or alternatives to the suggested algorithms and dependability/
security features. Existing references on implementation of similar schemes
will be of particular significance in the selection of the Tenderer. If the
Tenderer has already implemented such schemes or similar, the offer shall
indicate technical details, years in operation and end-customer contact
persons.
The normally open operation of the new SWCC plant at Ras Az Zawr is in
connection with the SEC grid. In case of disconnection from the SEC grid,
the plant will operate in island mode. If the 380 kV overhead line
connections to the SEC grid are lost, then the Generator Rejection Scheme
(GRS) should trip the steam turbine generators.
In such an island operation mode island, if one the potlines of the smelter,
equal to 600 MW load, is disconnected it is necessary to reduce the excess
of available power in the plant in a very short time. A Generator Rejection
Scheme (GRS) that will trip a certain number of the gas turbine generators
has to be implemented.
4.2
Scope of supply
This section sets out the scope of Generation Rejection installations covered
by this specification as well as the requested supplies and services, but
without excluding other necessary components and services not mentioned:
One stand-alone automatic Generator Rejection Scheme located at the
380 kV SWCC substation (with interfaces to the Substation SCMS
LAN and FMS), housed in a factory-tested panel(s)

Subject:

Doc No.:
Page 146 of 178

Rev. 0
All necessary works to design, engineer, test in factory and at site,

commission the core equipment, communication channels and the
associated interfaces to the SCMS LAN and to other remote control units
(if necessary)
All necessary hardware, cabling, extension cards, etc. required by the
above interfacing to communication channels and LANs included in the
Power Plant Package P and/or 380 kV Substation Contract.
The required software
All required hardware, cabling, etc. required for signal exchange with the
Aluminium Smelter at Maaden
All necessary hardware and cabling to connect the GRS to the auxiliary
DC and safe AC supply, local and remote fault monitoring systems
including the interconnection with the DCS of the power plant.
4.3
A reduction of the excess power after the loss of the 380 kV connections to
the SEC grid or load rejection in smelter load (potline) can be obtained via a
controlled generation rejection scheme (GRS) considering:
cyclic calculation of the power balance from SCADA information (a
typical SCADA pool cycle of few seconds is sufficient);
calculation by off-line simulation and for each critical event (tripping of
one or two 380 kV lines) the total number of MW output to be reduced in
order to arrest the frequency under the 5% level (63 Hz)
non-intentional delayed trip of pre-selected units in case of event
occurrence and fulfillment of some simple security checks (voltage
above 0.9 p.u., frequency above 61.2 Hz)
based on unit output information from SCADA, selection of the
particular units which should be tripped for each kind of event
(considering the actual load and unit output from SCADA)
Overfrequency trip back-up
The excess power calculation is based on real-time balance (every SCADA
cycle) between the power exported from the SWCC power plant via the
380 kV lines to the Grid and also to Maaden through separate lines and the
total generation.
The number of machines to be tripped for a particular line outage can be
calculated by off-line simulations and be recorded in a look-up table.
Alternatively to the look-up table, it is recommended to explore as an option
a more advanced solution, based on the cyclic runs of a power system
analysis software with a simplified model of the network and the generation
units; these runs should determine more accurately for each event and actual

system configuration the excess power DP to be rejected in order to arrest

the frequency under 63 Hz and the dynamic over-voltage under 1.25 Un.
The algorithm classifies in each SCADA cycle in descending order the
output sum of two GTs and the respective ST from each block Gi. The
accumulated tables are sub-totals Gi sorted by increasing MW, for
example for six GTs+ST combinations:
G1
G1+ G2
G1+G2+G3
G1+G2+G3+G4
G1+G2+G3+G4+G5
G1+G2+G3+G4+G5+G6
This algorithm is based on a pre-determined order of summing the generator
block outputs. The Contractor is free to propose as alternative other
algorithms for identifying the block combination which must be tripped, for
example by including as additional criterion the minimization of the number
of blocks, if not significantly impairing the execution speed and the security
of the overall scheme.
Since the configuration of the plant is not know and can be with five or six
generation blocks (GTs and ST), the combinations in the accumulated tables
have to be defined at a later stage.
The power which must be on-line is the difference:
Gi - DP
which is compared from the base to the top with the sub-totals list. The first
sub-total which is lower than the above figure gives the combination
number i which must be tripped, for example if:
Gi - DP > G1+G2+G3
then the combination G4 and G5 will be on the rejection list for the event
which causes a power unbalance of DP.
The GRS scheme should have also an over-frequency trip back-up function.
As back-up, it is proposed to implement a conventional over-frequency
protection using the same tripping logic as the GRS.

Security and Dependability

GRS trip function shall be event-triggered and permanently armed except
for:
manual disarming by operator from any of the hierarchical control
location
automatic disarming outside the normal operation tolerance bands for
voltage and
frequency
automatic disarming in case of component or function failure
The implementation of the GRS shall include features for fail-safe and fault
tolerant signal conditioning to increase the security and dependability of the
operation.
The controller requires the following 380 kV circuit breaker information:
Breaker status (three states)
Drive status (two states)
380 kV breaker trip command shall be two-pole.
The integrity of the hardware and associated interfaces to substation SCMS
- LAN shall be continuously monitored; alarms shall be issued for any
failure in the data acquisition or in the integrity of the hardwired signal
paths. The self-checking facilities shall not degrade the GRS performance.
Other security measures at platform hardware level like the cycle time
limitation for the look-up and accumulated tables, monitoring of the
position of critical control and test switches, must be provided an be subject
to approval in the detail engineering phase.
Since a remote access to the GRS is required, the design should consider the
consequence of unauthorized access on the security and dependability of the
scheme. The testing facilities and procedures shall be designed in such
manner as to exclude the risk of inadvertent operation.
The components of the GRS shall be designed to minimize the possibility of
component failure or malfunction due to electrical transients and
interference or external effects such as vibrations, shock, temperature. The
design shall recognize the effects of contact races, spurious operation due to
battery grounds, dc transients, RF interference or other similar influences.
DC supply shall be monitored to detect abnormal voltage levels, dc grounds.
GRS shall initiate breaker failure protection as all other 380 kV unit
transformer protections.

operator in which the effect of tripping lines of generators shall be tested
(with automatic disabling of the trip circuitry and fault monitoring signal
exchange)
4.4.4
User Interface
The user interface shall be the operators consoles at the above mentioned
control locations. The dynamically updated accumulation and look up tables
shall be displayed on the operator request in clear easy interpretable tables.

Expandability
The Integrated Security System (ISS) shall be capable of being expanded
beyond the base by adding independent hardware and functions into the
system. The additional hardware and functions shall not affect the existing
hardware nor degrade the performance. Expansion shall be provided in the
following areas but not limited to:
5.4.5.7
Addition of any components of CCTV (like fixed / PTZ cameras)

Addition of LCD monitors
Addition of any ACS components
Addition of any components of IDMS
Addition of any components of IDAS
Addition of any components of VSS
Addition of any new zones.
System grounding and ventilation fans

The ISS systems and all related components shall be grounded in strict
accordance with the equipment manufacturers recommendation.
All ventilation fans provided in any system equipment shall be designed for
silent operation and shall operate at the lowest speed practical that will
provide sufficient air movement to meet the manufacturers requirements. If
the failure of ventilation fan pair or individual fan can lead to equipment
malfunction of damage, they the failure of each individual fan shall be
alarmed via the ISS. An indicator shall be provided on the front exterior of
each cabinet containing ventilation fans to indicate the occurrence of
ventilation fan failure.
5.4.5.8
Graphical location maps

The ISS shall support the display of location maps. A standard vector
graphics format, such as AutoCAD DWF, is the preferred location map
format.
The drawing format for the location maps shall support a logical
partitioning by defining sub-areas inside the drawing, by marking the area
and giving a logical name. The time-consuming conversion into a bitmap
format and the splitting into sections should be avoided
The ISS shall provide a location tree to allow easy selection of locations and
sub-locations. The location tree should have no limits in the number of
levels or sub-levels. Creating the location tree and the location names

automatically by scanning the drawings for logical sub-areas should be

possible. A single click on the location/sub-location should show the
assigned graphics or sub-areas with all detector icons visible for that area.
The ISS shall provide a zoom and pan feature for zooming into a location
and move around inside the drawing, simply by using a standard mouse.
This allows operators to find a specific detector, door, or reader for fast
control, such as open door manually, show camera live image, and so on.
The ISS shall support multi-layered drawings and allows layers to be shown
or hidden depending on the incoming event. A manual layer control during
normal operation shall also be possible.
The ISS shall provide a library of standard detector icons for intrusion
detectors, doors, readers, cameras, and so on. It shall be possible to place
these icons directly onto the drawing. All assigned control commands
should be provided when clicking the icon.
When a detector point sends an alarm/event message, the assigned icon
animates inside the drawing, displaying the corresponding event color. The
location and the relative size of an icon shall be definable inside the drawing
and should be done by the architect.
The ISS shall provide a means of displaying icons corresponding to the
current detector status, e.g.
Door:
open - closed blocked
Barrier:
open - closed blocked
Camera:
motion alarm recording
All icons shall be provided in a vector format, so that when the user zooms
in and out, the size scales automatically to the view.
Moving the mouse cursor over a detector icon shall provide a tool tip with
detailed detector information, such as complete address, actual status, and
detector type.
5.4.5.9
Device overview
The ISS shall provide a real-time device overview of the entire systems
status. All connected subsystems shall be shown on a status tree, such as
intrusion detection system (IDS), video systems, access control hardware,
and individual detectors, as well as internal items, such as server or operator
status. A direct control into subsystems shall be possible by clicking on
panel/ detector address.

The device overview shall support state filtering/ sorting to search for
specific states, such as all detectors in malfunction or all doors in an open
state.
The states inside the device overview are shown using the same colors as on
the detector icon.
