Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT This manual applies to all 5009FT Control Systems but does not include information that is unique to your system. The 5009FT Control System can be provided in a number of hardware configurations and for steam turbine applications driving either a Generator or a Compressor as shown in Table 1-1. Because this manual addresses all configurations, many of the system software and hardware descriptions may not apply to your particular 5009FT System.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Chapter 2. Description General The 5009 Fault-Tolerant Control System is designed to control single valve, split- range valve, single controlled-extraction, single controlled-admission, or single controlled-extraction/admission steam turbines. The 5009 Control System is field programmable which allows a single design to be used in many different control applications and reduces both cost and delivery time.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Before calibrating or testing, the unit must be tripped and the steam supply removed. This is to ensure that opening the control valve(s) will not allow steam into the turbine. Overspeeding the turbine may cause damage to turbine and can cause severe injury or death to personnel.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Figure 2-6. Fault Tolerant Dual Coil Actuator Output Relay Outputs Twelve fault tolerant relay outputs are provided with this control. With this control’s architecture, a six relay configuration is used to form each fault tolerant relay output. When a relay output is closed, the contacts of all six relays are closed.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Since this control’s fault tolerant architecture can tolerate a single fault, it is possible for this fault to go undetected. This is called a latent fault. If a second fault occurs while a latent fault exists, the state of the fault tolerant relay output may be affected, possibly resulting in a shutdown condition.

MicroNet TMR 5009FT Servlink Communications Each of the three CPU’s supports Woodward’s Servlink protocol to our service tools and provides a direct Woodward Servlink connection to the CCT through the provided network switch. All of the CCT service tools are defaulted to communicate to the first Ethernet RJ45 port (ETH1) on CPU-A. If Kernel A is not available for some reason, the service tools can easily be reconnected to a different CPU (a different TCP/IP address).

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Analog Inputs Available Analog Inputs: 8 (Optional configurations provide additional 24) Any analog input can be configured to perform any of the listed control input functions (except the compressor control options, which must be on the optional additional Analog I/O module). This control only accepts 4–20 mA signals.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Integrating actuators utilize a null current, minimum current, and maximum current settings to position the valve based on a closed loop with position feedback. 0% demand does not correspond to minimum current nor does 100% demand correspond to maximum current. Changing the demand to the module will create an error between demand and feedback and the module will accordingly increase or decrease current to get a different position feedback and correct the error.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Integrating Actuator (P): Figure 2-10. P Controller Diagram CTRL_TYPE = P = proportional gain = N/A T_LEAD = N/A LAG_RATIO = N/A The P controller is the simplest controller, is very robust, and works well for systems that are not very sensitive to position errors.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Integrating Actuator (PI Lag or PI_LAG): Figure 2-12. PI Lag Controller Diagram CTRL_TYPE = PI_LAG = proportional gain = integral gain T_LEAD = N/A LAG_RATIO = lag time constant The PI-Lag controller is a PI controller with a lag block conditioning the demand signal. The lag term may be used to cancel, or partially cancel, a zero in the closed-loop transfer function.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT enabled the proportional controller will still position based on milliamp at 0% and milliamp at 100% settings, but will also adjust demand to correct any error between it and % position feedback. Actuator Direction When Actuator Direction is selected to be FORWARD, then an increasing position demand will result in an increasing current output.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Single automatic extraction/admission turbines have a high pressure stage and a low pressure stage, each controlled by a valve. Steam enters the turbine through the HP valve. At the downstream end of the HP turbine stage and before the LP valve, steam can either be extracted or admitted (inducted) into the LP turbine stage.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Chapter 4. Application Notes Overview This chapter is provided to give users an idea of the 5009 Control System’s capabilities and how to apply them to a system. Typical example applications are schematically shown and their functionality explained.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example Applications The example applications in this chapter do not show every possible control configuration or combination. These examples are provided as a reference to follow when applying any of the controlling combinations or parameters. To apply a desired control parameter, refer to one or more of the typical application configurations that are shown and resemble the control configuration desired, then substitute the shown control parameters with the required control parameters.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example 1—Pump or Compressor Discharge Pressure Control with Turbine Inlet Pressure Limiting Figure 4-1. Pump or Compressor Discharge Pressure Control with Turbine Inlet Pressure Limiting This is an example of a typical pump or compressor application. In this application the 5009 Control System is configured to normally control pump/ compressor discharge pressure and limit governor valve position based on low turbine inlet steam pressure.
Page 48
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT All 5009 PID controller setpoints may be adjusted through programmed raise and lower contacts, 4–20 mA inputs, Modbus commands or the CCT Interface. The following list of notes is provided as a reference for application programmers to follow when configuring the 5009 Control to achieve any of the control and limiting actions shown in Figure 4-1.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Figure 4-2. Pump or Compressor Suction Pressure Control with Turbine Inlet Pressure Limiting and Dual Coil Actuator For this application a limiting type of control function was required to help preserve inlet header pressure in case of system header problems. Because the Auxiliary PID is the only controller that has this capability, it is used to sense turbine inlet pressure and limit governor valve position, based on a low inlet pressure setting.
Page 50
In order to limit generator load, the 5009 Control must be able to sense generator load. As shown in Figure 4-3 generator load is being sensed with a Woodward Real Power Sensor (RPS) and supplied to the 5009 Control’s KW droop input. Generator over-load protection is performed by a combination of the Speed PID and the speed setpoint maximum limit.
With this RPS 12 mA represents zero power flow. Because of this feature, the RPS #8272-726 cannot be used with the 5009 Control to sense generator load/power. Please check with a Woodward certified distributor or factory for the correct RPS to use as a generator load sensor.
Page 52
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT This application uses a DSLC™ control for synchronization only. Because the DSLC interfaces to the 5009 Control through an analog signal, a 5009 Control analog input must be programmed. When a synchronizing input/function is programmed, the input can be enabled, through a contact input, Modbus command, or the CCT Interface.
Page 53
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example 4—Plant Import/Export Control with SPC Interface This is an example of a typical turbine generator application where plant import/ export control is desired when paralleled with the utility, and frequency control when isolated from the utility. When paralleled to the utility, turbine load varies based on the plant power demand.
Control does not have a bipolar drive circuit and cannot perform closed loop servo position control, a Woodward Servo Position Controller (SPC) was used to interface with the existing servo actuator. The integrating type of SPC used accepts a 4–20 mA valve demand signal from the 5009 Control, monitors actual valve position (through, LVDTs, MLDTs, or other DC position feedback devices), compares the two signals, and outputs a drive signal to the servo assembly’s actuator accordingly.
Page 55
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Older 5009 installations utilize the Digital Remote Final Driver (DRFD), which is still a valid control solution. However, for new installations, the Servo Position Controller (SPC) should be used. Also, with the new 5009FT system, the option exists to interface the actuator and its feedback mechanisms directly to the 5009FT Actuator Controller card.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example 5—Plant Import/Export Control with SPC Interface (Adm or Extr/Adm Turbine, Coupled HP & LP mode) Figure 4-5. Plant Import/Export Control with DRFD Servo Interface This is an example of a typical turbine generator application where plant import/ export control is desired when paralleled with the utility, and frequency control when isolated from the utility.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The DSLC provides either phase matching or slip frequency synchronizing and ties into the unit automatic voltage regulator to match voltages before paralleling. It communicates over a LAN, using an Echelon network, with other plant DSLC controls to perform safe dead bus closing.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example 6—Inlet Pressure Control with Isochronous Load Sharing Control in Island Mode (Extraction Turbine, Decoupled Inlet mode, Coupled HP & LP mode) Figure 4-6. Inlet Pressure Control with Isochronous Load Sharing Control in Island Mode For this application it is desired to control inlet pressure when paralleled to the utility, and plant frequency when isolated from the utility.
Page 60
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Extraction pressure is controlled by the extraction PID. This PID controller can be enabled automatically or manually depending on configuration. In all cases, the 5009 Control starts up with the extraction PID disabled and the LP valve at its maximum open position. This allows a turbine to warm-up in a uniform manner.
Page 61
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Cascade control (turbine inlet header pressure) can be enabled at any time after the utility tie breaker and generator breakers are closed through a contact input, Modbus command or the CCT Interface. If the actual inlet header pressure does not match the cascade setpoint when cascade control is enabled, the control will automatically ramp turbine load at the “Speed Setpoint Slow Rate”...
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example 7—Import/Export Control or Exhaust Pressure Control with Isochronous Load Sharing in Island Mode (Extraction Turbine, Decoupled Exhaust Mode, Coupled HP & LP Mode) Figure 4-7. Import/Export Control or Exhaust Pressure Control with Isochronous Load Sharing in Island Mode This example utilizes multiple turbine generators and requires that all units have the capability to control different plant parameters depending on the status of each unit.
Page 63
This application uses Woodward DSLC controls and an MSLC to allow all units to communicate, share plant load, and control plant export power. The DSLC is used on each unit for synchronization and load sharing.
Page 64
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT In this mode, the operation of the system is dependent on SW2’s position. When SW2 is not selecting the load sharing mode and the generator breaker is closed, unit load is set by the 5009 Control’s internal speed/load setpoint, or the Cascade PID if enabled.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Woodward DSLC controls can interface directly with a unit’s automatic voltage regulator. This allows units with DSLC controls to share reactive power as well as real power. This configuration also allows the MSLC to control plant power factor when the utility-to-tie breaker is closed.
Page 66
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT With this application, turbine inlet header pressure control is performed within the 5009 Control through the Cascade PID controller. This is an ideal controller for this type of function because it can be enabled and disabled as desired by a system operator. This gives a system operator full authority of when to transfer process pressure control to or from a letdown station or turbine bypass valve.
Page 67
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Cascade control (turbine inlet header pressure) can be enabled at any time after the utility tie breaker and generator breakers are closed, through a contact input, Modbus command or the CCT Interface. When cascade control is enabled the cascade setpoint will match the inlet header pressure level at that time, thus a bumpless transfer to inlet header pressure control is accomplished.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Example 9—Admission Steam Turbine Control with Bootstrap Start-up (Admission Turbine, Coupled HP & LP Mode) Figure 4-9. Admission Steam Turbine Control with Bootstrap Start-up This is an example of a typical turbine generator application where turbine load and admission flow are controlled.
Page 69
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Admission pressure is controlled by the Admission PID. An operator uses a manual demand signal to match the pressures on both sides of the admission trip & throttle valve. After the pressures have been matched, the operator can enable admission. At this point the operator can vary the admission setpoint through the 5009 Control’s CCT Interface or Modbus commands.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT An MSLC, when enabled, can control the load of all units (via DSLC controls and 5009FTs) on the Echelon network to control a common parameter. To have its load level set by the MSLC, a DSLC must be in the isochronous load sharing mode.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Chapter 5. Control Functionality Introduction The 5009 Control System may be programmed to operate single valve, split-range valve, single extraction, single admission, or single extraction/admission turbines. For each of the extraction and/or admission turbine applications, the 5009 Control’s Ratio/Limiter logic may be configured to allow the turbine’s HP and LP valves interact differently depending on the turbine’s function within a system.
Page 74
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT If turbine speed is first sensed within a critical speed band, the control will take control of turbine speed, ramp the speed setpoint to the upper limit of the critical speed band setting, and wait for action to be taken by the operator.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT 100% Operator Must Throttle Open Trip & Throttle Valve TIME START SPEED COMMAND CONTROL Figure 5-1. Manual Start Mode Example V1 Initial Position This option is only available when the control is configured to use the “Manual” start mode. If used this function sets the V1 valve (HP) limiter to an initial preset position upon a start command.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT 4. Raise the control’s HP valve limiter at a controlled rate. When turbine speed increases to the minimum controlling speed, the control’s Speed PID will take control of turbine speed through positioning the turbine’s inlet HP valve.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT 3. Issue a START command At this point the 5009 Control will ramp open the HP valve limiter to its maximum position at the HP valve limiter rate setting. The speed setpoint will ramp to its lowest speed setting at the Rate-to- min rate.
Page 78
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT If the option in the CCT software “SD if Rotor stuck” is set true (not available in manual mode), the engine will trip if the HP valve reaches V1 position and Low idle speed is not reached.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Start Permissible Contact An external contact may be used as a turbine start-up permissive. When configured for this functionality, the contact input must be closed in order for a ‘Start’ command to be executed. Should the contact be open when a ‘START’...
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Minimum HP and LP Lift Limiters The minimum HP lift limiter is used with only Admission or Extraction applications to limit the HP valve’s minimum position above 0% to ensure HP section cooling steam. This limiter prevents the Ratio/Limiter from taking the HP valve fully closed.

Automatic Start Sequence With this sequence, a set of hot-start ramp rates and hold times is programmed for use when a START command is given and the turbine has been shut down for less than the programmed ‘HOT START’...
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The Idle/Rated function can be used with any start mode (manual, semiautomatic, automatic). When a START command is issued, the speed setpoint will ramp from zero rpm up to and hold at the idle speed setting.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT This routine uses up to three idle settings or hold points between zero and rated speed, referred to as Low Idle, Medium Idle, and High Idle. With this routine, the speed setpoint ramps to a low idle setpoint and holds at this setting for a duration (and until turbine speed is at or above this setting).
Page 84
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT If the unit was tripped for 12 hours, the control would interpolate between the hot and cold parameters and use the following rates and delays (viewed in the Service Mode, see Volume 3): LOW IDLE DELAY...
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT If the turbine cannot accelerate though a critical speed band within the configured length of time, a Stuck in Critical alarm will be issued and the speed setpoint will instantly return to idle. Critical speed bands are defined in the Configure mode on the Start Settings page (see Volume 3). All critical speed band settings must be set between the idle speed and the minimum governor speed settings.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Speed PID Operational Modes The Speed PID operates in one of the following modes, depending on configuration and system conditions: 1. Speed Control 2. Frequency Control 3. Unit Load Control (droop) Turbine HP and LP valve position control ...
Page 87
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The speed setpoint may be set to a specific level by entering a setpoint value through the 5009 CCT Interface or Modbus communications. After a valid setpoint value is entered and accepted, the setpoint will ramp at the speed setpoint slow rate (defaulted setting) to the newly entered setpoint value. This ramp rate may be changed from its defaulted value in the Service Mode.
Page 88
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT If the anti-surge valve opens very fast, the engine speed must be raised immediately even if the real speed is far higher due to the surge event. With this, any coupling effect will be limited.
Page 89
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT A coupling effect could be noticed between the LP valve movement and the extraction pressure control valve (external), resulting in oscillations. These oscillations might become critical in the case of a sudden loss of extraction steam.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT SPEED/FREQUENCY CONTROL TURBINE INLET VALVE POSITION CONTROL GENERATOR LOAD CONTROL Figure 5-9. Speed PID Control Modes Unit Load Control (for generator units) The 5009 Control’s Speed PID can control two independent parameters when the generator breaker is closed: frequency when the generator is isolated and unit load when the generator is paralleled with an infinite bus.
Recommend a Woodward Real Power Sensor (RPS) or equivalent watt transducer be used to sense generator load and feed it back to the 5009 Control’s KW input for KW droop control. However, if KW droop is not used or programmed, the 5009 Control uses a calculated load value based off turbine’s HP...
Page 92
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT When using one of the Ratio/Limiter’s decoupled modes it is recommended that KW droop not be used. Since unit power is affected by the position of both valves, using KW droop would reduce the desired decoupling action.
Page 93
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT When not configured for a generator application, the 5009 Control uses the programmed minimum governor speed setpoint setting to determine which set of dynamic values are used by the Speed PID. The Speed PID’s off-line dynamics are selected when turbine speed is below the minimum governor speed setpoint.

Synchronization / Load Sharing (for Generator Units) A Woodward Digital Synchronizer & Load Control (DSLC) is used with a 5009 Control to allow automatic generator synchronization to a bus and the sharing of load with other units (using DSLC controls on the same bus).
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The sync/load share enable contact input option is used to enable the sync/load share analog input before the generator breaker is closed. This discrete enable/ disable function is ignored after the generator breaker is closed, and must be re- selected after the generator breaker opens. Typically a double pole single throw (DPST) switch is used on a site’s synchronizer control panel to select automatic...
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Figure 5-12. Ext/Adm Control Diagram The Extraction PID can be enabled automatically or manually. Extraction control is enabled by lowering the LP valve limiter to its 0% position. After a start-up, the HP and LP valve limiters should normally both be fully open.
Page 99
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The LP valve limiter may be stopped at any time during the automatic enabling routine by momentarily issuing a LP limiter raise or lower command (or by entering a valid setpoint). Upon stopping the automatic enabling routine from lowering the LP valve limiter, the Extraction PIDs output will still continue to be enabled.
Page 100
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT 4. Open the Ext/Adm T&T valve. 5. Issue an Adm or Ext/Adm Control Enable command. All functions required to bumplessly enable and disable Adm or Ext/Adm Control can be performed through the CCT program, contact inputs, or Modbus. The control only accepts an enable command if all related permissives are met.
Page 101
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT PID Dynamics The Ext/Adm PID uses its own set of dynamic settings. These values are programmable and may be tuned at any time from CCT Interface or Modbus. Refer to Chapter 5 of this manual for information on PID dynamic adjustments.
Page 102
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The remote Ext/Adm setpoint range is determined by the programmed analog input’s 4 mA and 20 mA settings. The remote Ext/Adm setpoint range is tunable in the Service Mode. When enabled, the remote setpoint may not match the Ext/Adm setpoint. In this case, the Ext/Adm setpoint will ramp to the remote setpoint at the “Remote E/A Not-Matched Rate”...
Page 103
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Because a single ext/adm turbine has only two control valves, only two parameters at a time can be controlled. Due to a turbine’s design, the positioning of either valve (HP or LP) has an effect on both parameters being controlled.
Page 104
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The turbine’s HP and LP valve actions are still coupled to control turbine speed (or ext/adm pressure/flow) without interaction from turbine inlet pressure or flow changes. Turbine inlet pressure is controlled by moving both the HP and LP valves simultaneously, thus no change in speed (ext/adm pressure) is created.
Page 105
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT In this operating mode the turbine’s HP and LP valve actions are fully de-coupled. The HP valve can be positioned by the 5009 Control’s Speed, Cascade, or Auxiliary PIDs. The LP valve can only be positioned by the 5009 Control’s Ext/ Adm PID.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT HP Min LP Min 855−689 98−03−13 JMM Figure 5-16. Decoupled HP&LP Mode Speed vs. EXT/ADM Priority Because an extraction and/or admission turbine has two control valves, it can only control two parameters at a time. If the turbine reaches an operating limit, (a valve fully open or closed) the result is only one free moving valve to control with, thus the 5009 Control can only control one parameter.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Speed priority is selected if any of the above conditions are false. Manual Priority Enabling—The 5009 Control only accepts an ext/adm priority select command if all related permissives are met (see enable permissive list above). An ext/adm priority enable command may be given from the 5009 CCT Interface, a contact input, or through Modbus.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Auxiliary Control The Auxiliary PID can be used to limit or control generator power, plant import/ export power, turbine inlet pressure, turbine exhaust pressure, pump/compressor discharge pressure, or any other auxiliary parameters directly related to turbine speed/load. The auxiliary input is a 4 - 20 mA current signal. The PID control amplifier compares this input signal with the auxiliary setpoint to produce a control output to the digital LSS (low-signal select) bus.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Auxiliary Control With Remote Setpoint—Auxiliary is limiting the LSS bus and the remote auxiliary analog input is in command of the setpoint. Auxiliary is Inhibited—Auxiliary cannot be enabled because the input signal has failed.
Page 113
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Auxiliary Dynamics The Auxiliary PID control uses its own set of dynamic settings. These values are programmable and may be tuned at any time from the CCT Interface or via Modbus. Refer to the PID Dynamic Adjustments section in Chapter 6.
Page 114
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT When enabled, the remote setpoint may not match the auxiliary setpoint. In this case, the auxiliary setpoint will ramp to the remote setpoint’s value at the auxiliary setpoint rate (as set in the Service Mode).
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Cascade Control The Cascade Control can be configured to control any system process, related to or affected by turbine speed or load. Typically, this controller is configured and used as a turbine inlet or exhaust pressure controller.
Page 116
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Cascade Control Status Messages Cascade is Disabled—Cascade Control is not enabled and will have no effect. Cascade is Enabled—Cascade has been enabled but is not active or in control. Permissives have not been met (speed < minimum governor or generator or tie breaker open).
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Cascade Setpoint with No Tracking If the Cascade Control is programmed not to use the setpoint tracking feature, the setpoint will remain at its last setting (running or shutdown). When the 5009 Control is powered-up the setpoint is reset to the setpoint initial value.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT When enabled, the RCS may not match the cascade setpoint. In this case, the cascade setpoint will ramp to the RCS at the programmed cascade setpoint rate setting (set in the Service Mode). Once in control, the RCS will adjust the cascade setpoint at the programmed remote cascade maximum rate.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Seal Gas PID Dynamics The Seal Gas PID control uses its own set of dynamic settings. These values are programmable and may be tuned at any time from CCT Interface only. Seal Gas Set Point The Seal Gas setpoint can be adjusted from the 5009 CCT Interface, external contacts, or Modbus.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The “Shutdown Condition” relay may be programmed to indicate a shutdown condition on a remote panel or to a plant DCS. The Shutdown Indication relay is normally de-energized. This relay will energize upon any shutdown condition and stay energized until all trips have been cleared. The reset clears trip function has no effect on the programmable Shutdown Indication Relay.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Local / Remote Function The 5009 Control’s Local / Remote function allows an operator at the turbine skid or 5009 Control to disable any remote command (from a remote Control Room) that may put the system in a unsafe condition.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The Alarm Condition relay may be programmed to indicate an alarm condition on a remote control panel or to a DCS. The Alarm Indication relay is normally de- energized. This relay will energize upon any alarm condition and stay energized until all alarms have been cleared.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Chapter 6. 5009 Control System Operation Introduction The 5009 Control System is designed to interface with the provided CCT program, discrete and analog input/outputs, and devices communicating via Modbus (OpView). The 5009 Control’s operating architecture is divided into two sections: Run Mode and Configure Mode. The Configure Mode is used to configure the 5009 Control for the specific application and set all operating parameters (Refer to Volume 3).
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Valve / Actuator Calibration & Test Before initial operation or after a turbine overhaul where any actuator or valve travel may have been affected, the below Valve Calibration procedure should be followed to ensure that the 5009 Control is calibrated to both valves (HP &...
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Valve Calibration / Stroking Procedure Before calibrating or testing, the unit must be tripped and the steam supply removed. This is to ensure that opening the control valve(s) will not allow steam into the turbine. Internal Overspeed sensing and its relay are disabled during this process.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Auto Start Sequence When a START command is issued the Speed setpoint is instantly set to the turbine’s actual speed and the sequence will continue from this point. This sequence is automatic, however the sequence can be halted.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Derivative Derivative provides a temporary over-correction to compensate for long transfer lags and reduce stabilization time on process upsets (momentary disturbances). Analogy: Accelerating into high speed lane with merging traffic. Derivative, sometimes called “preact” or “rate”, is very difficult to draw an accurate analogy to, because the action takes place only when the process changes and is directly related to the speed at which the process changes.
Proportional effect. Integral Response Integral Gain as stated in the Woodward controls is repeats per minute (or Reset Rate). Therefore, a high amount of Integral gain (high number) would result in a large amount of Reset action. Conversely, a low Integral gain (low number) would result in a slower reset action.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Proportional + Integral (Closed Loop) Figure 6-3 shows the closed loop effects of integral action. The bottom curve displays the load change. The next curve up shows the setpoint and the measured variable, temperature. With the load change the temperature droops or deviates from the setpoint.
Derivative will not remove offset. Woodward Derivative is split into two working domains, Input dominant and Feedback dominant. The allowed values for DR range from 0.01 to 100. The most common derivative is Feedback dominant, it is automatically selected with an Derivative Ratio (DR) from 1 to 100.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Except for input dominant and feedback dominant features, the reciprocal of one domain will appear identical in the other domain. As an example, consider an DR of 5.0, the reciprocal being 1/5. That means that an DR of 5.0 will appear the same as DR of 0.200. The difference in response between these values of 5.0 and 0.2 is in the dominance feature.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Derivative (Effects of Settings) Figure 6-6. Derivative Setting Effects Figure 6-6 shows the effect of different Derivative settings. The curves are relative since it depends on what type of control is desired in order to properly adjust Derivative time. For example, if minimum cycling is desired (as is shown here) then Derivative is added to the 1/4 decay cycle provided by Proportional until more than one cycle is removed and of course the 1/4 decay is destroyed.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT Figure 6-7. Closed Loop Proportional, Integral and Derivative Action In summary, Derivative provides a temporary over-correction to compensate for long transfer lags and reduce stabilization time on process upsets (momentary disturbances). Do not use if high frequency noise is normally in the measured variable or the main lag is dead time.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT A controller configured as feedback dominant is more sensitive to the change-of-rate of its feedback (LSS). A feedback dominant controller has the ability to limit the rate of change of the LSS bus when a controller is near its setpoint but is not yet in control.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The following method can be used to achieve PID gain values that are close to optimum: 1. Increase Derivative Ratio (DR) to 100 (Service Mode adjustment) 2. Reduce integral gain to 0.01 (Start Mode adjustment) 3.

Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT A PID control loop’s gain is a combination of all the gains in the loop. The loop’s total gain includes actuator gain, valve gain, valve linkage gain, transducer gain, internal turbine gains, and the control’s adjustable gains.
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT The change from one of these configurations to the other may have no effect during normal operation, however, it can cause great differences in response when the governor is coming into control. (at start-up, during a full load change, or during transfer of control from another channel).
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT 2. Verify that the turbine is in speed control then raise the speed setpoint to the “maximum control speed” setting. 3. Initiate the Overspeed Test through the CCT program. 4. Raise the speed setpoint to the Electrical Overspeed Trip point. NOTE: If no raise or lower speed setpoint commands are received for any 60 second interval, the control will exit the overspeed test mode.
Page 140
Manual 26518V1 MicroNet TMR 5009FT In the event that more than one command is received (conflicting contact input and Modbus command) the last command received will be the command acted upon. Speed Control The Speed controller cannot be disabled. When auxiliary and cascade control have been disabled, the speed PID will try to control the turbine at the speed setpoint, offset by the amount of droop configured into the speed loop.
