IS215UCCAM03A GE MarkVIe, Compact PCI Processor Module

Description:
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:

The IS215UCCAM03A is a Compact PCI Processor Module developed and designed by General Electric as part of the VIe Series utilized in GE Distributed Control Systems. It features a single-slot board equipped with a 650 MHz Intel Celeron processor. The module includes a 10BaseT/100BaseTX (RJ-45) Ethernet port for connectivity to the Unit Data Highway (UDH). Additionally, it has two PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) sites and a watchdog timer. This processor board serves as the computational core of the Mark VIe controller. The IS215UCCAM03 consists of the IS215UCCAH3 combined with 128 MB of flash memory, 128 MB of DRAM, and the IS200EPMC. Five communication ports facilitate links to I/O, operator, and engineering interfaces as follows:

- An Ethernet connection for the Unit Data Highway (UDH) for communicating with HMIs and other control equipment.
- Another Ethernet connection for the R, S, and T I/O network.
- An RS-232C connection for setup using the COM1 port.

INSTALLATION:

The controller module comprises at least one controller and a four-slot CPCI rack with either one or two power supplies. The primary controller must be installed in the left-most slot (slot 1). Additional controllers can be placed in the same rack. To extend the battery life during storage, the CMOS battery is disconnected using a processor board jumper. When installing the board, the battery jumper must be reinstalled. Refer to the specific UCCx module drawing for the jumper location. The battery powers the CMOS RAM settings and the internal date and real-time clock. There is no need to set CMOS settings since they are defaulted to the correct values through the BIOS. Only the real-time clock needs to be reset. The initial date and time can be set using a system NTP server or ToolboxST application. If the board being installed is the system board (slot 1) and there are other boards in the rack, ejecting the system board will cause the other boards to stop operating. It is recommended that power be removed from the rack when replacing any board in the rack. Rack power can be removed via one of the following methods:

- In a single power supply unit, a switch is provided to disable the power supply outputs.
- In a dual power supply unit, both power supplies can be safely ejected to cut off power.
- Unplug the bulk power input Mate-N-Lok connectors on the bottom of the CPCI enclosure.
- Use a remote disconnect switch.

OPERATION:

The controller runs software specific to its application, which includes but is not limited to steam, gas, land-marine aero-derivative (LM), or balance-of-plant (BOP) products. It can execute rungs or blocks. The IEEE 1588 protocol is used through the R, S, and T I/O networks to synchronize the clock of the I/O packs and controllers to within ±100 microseconds.

It processes inputs/outputs to the I/O packs, status and synchronization information from both controllers, and internal state values and initialization information from the designated controller.
