    C H A P T E R 1 Theory of Operation This chapter provides an overview of the Trident controller. Topics include: “Controller Features” ........2 “Fault Tolerance”...

  • Page 18: Controller Features

    2 Controller Features Controller Features To ensure the highest possible system integrity at all times, the Trident controller includes the following features: • Provides Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) architecture, whereby each of three identical channels independently executes the application, and specialized hardware and software mechanisms vote all inputs and outputs.

  • Page 19: Fault Tolerance

    Fault tolerance provides an increase in safety and the availability of the controller and the process being controlled. The Trident controller provides fault tolerance through TMR architecture. The controller consists of three identical channels (except for the power modules which are dual-redundant).

  • Page 20: Controller Architecture

    For each I⁄O module, the controller can support an optional hot-spare module. If present, the hot-spare takes control if a fault is detected on the primary module during operation. The hot-spare position is also used for the online hot repair of a faulty I⁄O module. Trident Planning and Installation Guide...

  • Page 21: Main Processor Architecture

    Controller Architecture 5 Main Processor Architecture A controller contains three MPs. Each MP controls a separate channel and operates in parallel with the other two MPs. A dedicated I⁄O control processor on each MP manages the data exchanged between the MP and the I⁄O modules. A triplicated I⁄O bus, located on the baseplates, extends from one column of I⁄O modules to another column of I⁄O modules using I⁄O bus cables.
  • Page 22 NVRAM. A failure of one power source does not affect controller performance. If the controller loses power, the application and all critical data are retained indefinitely. Trident Planning and Installation Guide...

  • Page 23: Bus And Power Distribution

    • Compares data and flags disagreements with the output of the previous scan and program memory An important feature of the Trident controller architecture is the use of a single transmitter to send data to both the upstream and downstream MPs. This ensures that the same data is received by the upstream processor and the downstream processor.

  • Page 25: Controller Communications

    Controller Architecture 9 spare I⁄O modules. Consequently, both the active module and the hot-spare module receive the same information from the field termination wiring. A triplicated I⁄O bus transfers data at 2 megabits per second between the I⁄O modules and the MP. The I⁄O bus is carried baseplate-to-baseplate and can be extended to multiple columns of I⁄O modules.

    Controller Architecture 13 Digital Input Module A Digital Input Module contains the circuitry for three identical channels (A, B, and C). Although the channels reside on the same module, they are completely isolated from each other and operate independently. Each channel conditions signals independently and provides optical isolation between the field and the controller.

    Output voter diagnostics (OVD) is a set of tests that detects failures in the output voting circuitry of DO Modules only. OVD runs without operator intervention or awareness and enables the Trident controller to continually verify its own integrity. CAUTION OVD may affect a controlled process! For this reason, Triconex provides special instructions for disabling OVD on selected DO points from TriStation.

  • Page 243: Conduit Shielding

    Conduit Shielding 227 Conduit Shielding Conduit and cable trays route the network trunkline within the plant for short distances or for several miles. Often the same conduit carries both data and power wiring, creating a problem with electromagnetic interference. Your choice of materials and configuration for the cable conduit determines the degree of protection from this interference.
